' if 'tis Good Teachers Trained Here With the nation's population increasing at a tremendous rate, and with schools already bursting at the seams with pupils, there is bound to be a great demand for well trained teachers in the years to come. Phoenix College is doing its share to meet this need by preparing teachers of the future. While the education department is not among the largest, it is an active one, offering three different two-year curricu- lums for those who will seek education degrees in upper divi- sion schools. Among the teacher-prep courses offered are those in the nursery school, and specific education courses like in- troduction to education, children's literature, and audio-visual aids. In addition to these specialized courses. students who plan to teach are encouraged to acquire a broad general education, as well as training in those areas that outline the freedoms and responsibilities of good citizenship. fig gp-ss, 1 . swf This trio of future Bruins were members of the nursery school's class of '59, John Vauter is top man on the play barrel, while Greg and Tommy Hill for perhaps Tommy and Greg Hilll are identical twins.

P.E. Courses Advocate Health Equally important as a healthy mind is a healthy body. Nearly all students take physical education, and PE activities are diversified enough to suit the needs and requirements of everyone. Under the brilliant Arizona sun, golf, tennis, archery, soft- ball, soccer, handball, and other major sports can be played anytime. For those who enjoy indoor sports, bowling, gym- nastics, badminton, square-dancing, weight-lifting, and wres- tling are popular. Besides the general survey courses, there are health classes which teach hygiene and lirst aid. Those who plan to continue their education at a higher institution must also enroll in general psychology and mental health. Phoenix College has always fielded varsity teams. From early September to the final day of school, sports play an active role at PC. The football team consistently engages such California powerhouses as Fullerton, San Diego, and El Ca- mino. From year to year basketball is the best spectator sport here. Several times over the past decade, our club has com- piled an outstanding record and traveled to the national finals in Kansas. Spring brings track men and baseball players outside. Also representing the Blue and Gold are the golf and tennis squads. The Bears have always had their share of victories on the cinderpaths or the diamond. Final sports competition of the year comes at Bear Day when the upstart freshman take on the experienced sophomores in a number of athletic events. n . ' 23
