Ti , L,,, ,. Popular Gillian Brewer is still displaying the scars that are her trophy for distinguished serv- ice in administering first aid to a rival. Posture, good grooming, and etiquette courses teach us tohbe XVright'l girls, who under all conditions represent our school in the finest tradition of southern ladies. Modern dance provides sound muscles and resounding laughs: Look! l'm a water sprinkler! Do I look like an apron? Does this action remind you of a fire? How do you symbolize a dish of rice pudding? Mrs. Wzitts, as choreographer, helps us to prepare dances for a variety of talent shows, and even to invent new jitterbug steps for the ambitious younger dancers. Have you any shin bruises from the last ' ii - t1 cotillion? Are your ribs sore from the last gkng A W - 4 t. me three o'clock surge through the locker hall? Are your arches still sagging from your long wait in the cafeteria line? Our first aid l class will brace, bandage, anoint, or ampu- tate! In short, or rather in shorts, we are hav- ing great times in physical education and are acquiring principles of healthful living. The air is tense as Ann Rogers tries to shoot a goal in the last period gym class. W 1- W ..-affaw,,-..:- . - 291253 5. wxeaggipwswrweisaifsa' 35.33-:15,i5-g,w?55gg,sff,r.,,ff ,Wag ,ig ,r 7.

P.E. I Shoulders up! Stretch, two, three, four! Pause, two, three, four! These are the fa- miliar sounds that rise between the groans of calisthenic warm-ups at each physical education class. Malevolent thoughts of exams, grades, term papers, demerits, and boys are forced away from us with every exercise. Thoughts of school spirit, games, and fun replace them. After a thorough' tune-up we are ready to put all our energies into basketball, baseball, or volleyball. XVe keep in form for the rigorous competition of intramurals and tournaments with other schools, where our teams display friendli- ness, skill, and good sportsmanship. The faculty-student basketball game showed everyone who really has the upper hand in our school. Even with the referees ringing goals for them, with their team playing on the wrong side of the court, and clutching student players by the seats of' their pants, the teachers did not have a chance! The long-awaited Blue-jean Day brought contests, relays, trophies, and picnics. ' gg , ,HQ Wllyaf ,M Q ,, .t.?li,f as so A ta s .
