Danny Proctor and Tom Cunlock demonstrate a tumbling technique. EXERCISE—Competitively Or Individually Physical education classes for boys and girls offer a varied program where students learn teamwork as well as the skills needed for individual sports. Kxercising for good health is as ini| ortant as keen competition and the intramural program is an ambitious one. Girls not only learn the rules of the games but learn how to officiate, under the sponsorship of the Girls' Athletic Association. Another phase of the program provides instruction in the technique of administering first aid. The girls’ sports program includes basketball, field hockey, badminton, and square dancing. Not twice around the track!” Many a member of a boys’ physical education class has protested this exer- cise which is usually prescribed in preliminary practice for football, basketball, soccer, baseball, and track. Tennis ami golf have also been available to these healthy young athletes. Ice hockey joined the ranks of the varsity s| oris at Bethesda-Chevy Chase when a team was organ- ized to practice at Uline Arena. The extent and variety of the total athletic program frequently escapes us in its quiet efficient o| eration. BETTY M. BRKY. B.S.—Pom-pon Team . . . JAMES M. DAVIS. B.S.. M.Kd.—Vanity Sport . . .

VOCATIONAI Useful And Rewarding The wealth to be discovered in the basement of the Arts Building lies in quiet solitude most of the time. The inquisitive student, however, who begins his explo- rations there will continue to spend at least one hour daily, seeking the rich rewards. Jewelry Shop yields I.D. bracelets, rings, and silver trays. Metal Shop supplies house markers, book ends, trays, and whatever else an ingenious student might design. Bowls, chests, tables, etc. spring into l cing in the Wood Shop classes while careful designs arc wrought by students in Mechanical Drawing. In a school with no scheduled study halls, a minor subject which entertains as well as instructs is greatly appreciated, and here there are tangible results to l c displayed for one’s labors. George Carr ami Deane Bcman appear deeply engrossed Metal Shop, under Mr. Bender's careful eye. provides an as Mr. Sagneri shows them the proper method of repairing op|Mirtunity for many different projects, this broken table. The proper procedure for turn- ing this Ixml on the lathe occu- pies the attention of Mr. Hre- lienach ami St a voras Britsias. Martha Phyfc is an attentive olwcrvcr while Mr. Croddy dem- onstrates one of the fine points in jewelry making. 19

One admires the vitality of the students that compose our a-ca| clla choir. One hundred special blue and gold robes were purchased this year for our recently organized Honor Choir. Just imagine rising early Saturday morn- ing to rehearse for a performance. Pause to enjoy music of master musicians as the music appreciation classes study the recorded works of great men. Hurry on to see the art study and achievements of other students. Some arc working with oils, others with pastels and water colors. Many of them use their work to publicize school activities or to enter special contests. The ceramic display shows the versatility of the artist. Barons will be victorious’’ is the familiar strain that suddenly rises to our ears. The marching band is prac- tising. My, how they brighten the football field during half-time performances. When the band docs not supply thc music, we may hear the melodious strains of the orchestra.
