At the beginning of the school year, each girl enrolling in the work is given a physical examination. Her height, weight, and lung capacity are tabulated, her posture and the condition of her teeth is noted. This record is kept on the same card for four years so her development may be easily traced. Classes in Physical Education meet two periods each week. The day outside is devoted to practice of the elements of various games and to the playing of these games. Volley Ball holds sway in the Fall. This is followed by Basket Ball and in the Spring the classes take up Indoor Base-ball. The girls are given Athletic Badge test which are put out by the Play-ground and Recreation Association of America. These are a test of a girl's skill and co-ordination in bodily movements. One day a week classes meet in the gymnasium for marching, setting up drills and folk dancing. Freshmen girls are given a choice of enrolling in class of. folk dancing or of beginning tennis for a third period a week in addition to their regular two periods in Physical Education. Sophomore, Junior, and Senior girls may enroll for three periods in Aesthetic dancing or tennis in addition to their two regular periods in Physical Education. The Annual May Fete which is put on each year by the girls of the Physical Education department is a culmination of the year's work in the dancing classes. For the girls who are interested in Athletics, a well developed point system is used. After school practice is held in Volley Ball, Basket Ball, Indoor Baseball, Tennis and Swimming, and girls are awarded a certain number of points towards their school letters or sweaters for making their class or school teams in these sports. The girls are fortunate in having the use of a large gymnasium for their class work, with showers and dressing rooms. The Physical Education Department aims for the all round de- velopment of the girls of Phoenix Union High School through the various activities offered, and tries to give to each girl a love for clean play and recreation with skill in one sport which will last her through life. . - MEQXRGARET HURLEY NFLL TIRRFLL ELGLNIA KENNAN a tv U W ww' 'ZW' fw ll a. ,aa Myra . .mums 'I A University o Ciliformi A V1 E .

gEMfTMl The 2.45 9 .Mill H Z . lihdmiml Mechanical Arts Department HE Mechanical Arts Department of P.U.H.S. was organized in 1912 and housed in the Tin Barn across the Canal until 1921 when the present magniiicent building was completed. From a beginning of one teacher and thirty students the department has grown to have six teachers and nearly three hundred students. At first, wood work only was taught, now we have courses in Mechanical drawing, descriptive geometry, carpentry and joinery, planing mill, pattermnaking, forge work, machine shop prac- tice and printing. R. lzer Turner the present head of the department, has been with us since 1913. Mr. Turner is a graduate of U. of A. and teaches Mechani- cal drawing and descriptive geometry. H. H. Heidenreich, in charge of the Wood shop, has been with us four years and comes from the ,University of Oregon and Oregon Agri- cultural College. Mr. Heidenreich is assisted by W. H. Waters, who is a patternmaker by trade and received his education in the Drexel Insti- tute, Delaware. This is Mr. Waters third year in Phoenix. Mechanical Drawing and Descriptive Geometry, branches of graphical mathematics, form the basis of the language spoken by engineers. Where- ever you go, the wide world over, you will find this the universal lan- guage of the builder and constructor. These subjects are dry and diflic ult, but are interesting to one who has the stuHf', of which engineers are made. The wood shop courses speak for themselves. Many exercises for both use and beauty are built at the bench or turned out on the lathe. Special attention is given to finish. The aim of these courses is cultural but they are strongly pre-vocational as well. The courses in forge and machine shop have enabled many boys to go out and do all the forge work necessary on a farm or earn a good living in a machine shop, and they do much useful work for the other departments. There is no finer example of wrought iron work in the state than the street lamps in front of the Auditorium designed and forged in our own plant. The boys built our bleachersg lining on basket ball goalsg to mention only a few. The print shop is a place of all work and no play, but the boys save the school several thousand dollars annually, besides laying the founda- tion for a very lucrative and useful trade. There are jobs now waiting every boy that completes a years work in the print shop. R. lzeu TURNER VVILLIAM WATERS Ph. B. University of Arizona.
