Gals acquire muscular coordination, speed, dexterity Nothing is impossible in this mad age of science 4. The groans, screeches, and oh, my poor mus- cles! are not always the sorts of sounds one hears from a classroom, but from the GIRLS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT those echoes are quite standard. You must realize that the fair co-ed has iust been through a session of physical exertion, and time must be taken out to pass the time the only way a high school girl can talk. Here the innocent maiden is not only im- pressed with the idea of hitting a baseball, but al- so with the importance of a straight and sound body. A strange code has become the by-word of these damsels, TTlT, Tuck Tummy in Tight, as they endeavor to walk, to stand, and to sit in such a The importance of SCIENCE-MATHEMATICS DE- PARTMENT in this age cannot be overestimated. We stand on the threshold of an era of great sci- entific advancement and achievement. Therefore the Science-Math Department is fundamental to the curriculum at Alhambra High School. To be sound- ly educated today, one must have some definite knowledge in this field to understand technical data. In addition to the prescribed work, avocational courses are offered. Photography is one in which a student can learn through experience the enioy- ment derived from taking pictures. This may lead to a vocation in photography, or an ideal leisure time hobby. But all is not seriousness. There are the times when even the trig instructor admits that something is too long and involved, the moments in chemistry when someone thinks he has discovered a new gas when all he has done is burned the rubber hose leading to his bunsen burner, and in physics where some slaphappy student wreaks havoc with the experimental apparatus. All this goes to make up the department of Sci- ence-Math. It is with high hopes that we look to this department to supply us with the invaluable technical knowledge which we will be able to put to use, either directly or indirectly, throughout the rest of our lives. Yes, even if we all do not become scientists, engineers, mathematicians, or physicists, we can all use a good, sound knowledge of the principles of science and mathematics. 24 'G-x GIRLS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION lleft to rightt Mrs. H.

This department offers a program of activities that affords more opportunities as the girl ad- vances in high school years. Though one may think this department has pro- duced a group of Yogi contortionists, in actuality the AHS co-ed tries to acquire grace and rhythm with a development of her imagination in the mod- ern dance classes. The range of activities offered in the outdoor sports program induces a sportsman- like attitude for use in daily life with the possibility of some sport to use for leisure in later years. ics' SCIENCE-MATHEMATICS llelt to rightl Row I: Mr. R.
