PHYSICAL EDUCATION Deering can smile at the present craze for toughening upv our teen-agers, for We have had an excellent physical education department for years. Every student who does not participate in a sport must take two periods of gym a week. Calisthenics, football, hockey, volley ball, bas- ketball, and softball help Deeringites to develop co- ordination and strength, to gain enjoyment from both team and individual sports, and, most important, to lcarn sportsmanship.
