The Physical Education Department, under the direction of Mr. Graham and Miss Sinkinson, teaches the skills of the various sports in gym classes-some with as many as 110 students- and supervises extra-curricular clubs and sports in which these skills may be practiced. New courses and clubs have been organized for the girls: Miss Matzumoto teaches ele- mentary judo and the art of self-defense, Mrs. Moffatt gives a course in modern dance, and an indoor archery club meets in the basement of Suprina's. Centralites thus have the oppor- tunity to build their bodies while learning skills in sports. Health Centralls Health Department, headed by Miss Green, teaches two very valuable courses. Health I is a course for seniors who have not taken the biology course. Health II is a required course in psychology. The Health Department per- forms an important service by teaching us how to take care of our minds and bodies. Qcxvx wr' f . ..mm Mr. D'E1ia, Miss Green.
