PETERSON PHYSICAL EDUCATION The way to a sound mind is a sound body. Good health is recognized here as one of the important requirements for happy living. In our gym and swimming classes and in our extracurricular sports we are building the foundations of good health, and at the same time we are learning what co-operation and team work mean. It was a stroke of luck for our school when Coach Willard Bass came to Walnut Hills last year. Ever since his college days 'Mr. Bass has been working with boys in athletics, making that his hobby. From the fine records that Walnut Hills has made this year you can see that the boys always give their best for a coach of his caliber. Mr. Allen Davis, known as Whitey'7 because of his striking blonde hair, became a member of our faculty two years ago. Taking over the job of coaching a championship swimming team, he kept up the Eagle tradition and even bettered the standing of our squad. The principal interest in Whitey's life is promoting athletics at Walnut Hills, but on his own time he enjoys hunting, hiking, and fishing. MR. BASS MR. DAVIS
