Practical Ana' Vocational Expcrzcnce Industrial Arts offered the opportunity for boys to learn to create with their hands. In the junior high a student was first exposed to a general shop course. Later, he could choose a particular shop as an elective or elect to major in industrial arts in his junior and senior years. Boys applied their knowledge of the graphic arts by printing the posters and bulletins for the school: students gained valuable experience in carpentry and metalwork while working on indi- vidual projects. Shop teachers, too, handled ad- ditional assignments. Mr. Sheckler served as tennis coach, and Mr. Child supervised an ex- cellent stage crew for all productions. INDUSTRIAL ARTS: WILLIAM T.

Ojfers Key To Physicalbf Sound Youth Cold showers, sweaty socks, long laps around the football field-all were memories of gym classes. Physical education became an integral part of the high school programg it stimulated a desire for physical fitness and introduced stu- dents to diverse sports. Students participated in a variety of activities ranging from the normal seasonal sports to gymnastics and calisthenics. Boys received instruction from Mr. Shaak, Mr. Krebs, and Mr. Imschweilerg the girls' in- structors were Mrs. Herman, Miss Armitage, and Miss Ippolito. Each instructor worked a heavy schedule that included sophomore health classes in addition to physical education. The extra-curricular activities of these teachers were closely allied to their instructional fields. Mr. Shaak coached varsity basketball and Jay Vee football. Mr. Imschweiler trained the swimming team and assisted with baseball. Mr. Krebs coached wrestling. Leading the girls' sports were Miss Armitage, basketball and softball, and Mrs. Herman, field hockey and Dolphin adviser. GIRLS' HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION: GWENDLYN J.
