World History, Grade and High School Physical Education Uunior Sponsor, G-Club Sponsor, Byron Hofmeister WORLD HISTORY students divided their time be- tween a textbook and workbook which covered events of ancient times. The Middle Ages , Feudal Lords , and Prehistoric Man are examples of movies which brought our textbook to life. In Order to keep students posted on up-to-date news, the classes read the current events paper, Our Times and saw monthly News Report Movies . BOYS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION periods were usually started with good old calisthenics, the middle half for games, and then off for a refreshing shower. In the fall, touch football, relay races, and soccer occupied most of the class period. During the winter rough and ready battleball, basketball, and volley- ball were the favorite indoor sports. When spring rolled around, softball was added to the list of games. LEFT: Are all pyramids as successful as this when not in front of a camera?
