STEPS-UP PHYSICAL EDUCATION To develop every muscle and produce coordination of mind and body, the national physical fitness program was instituted in the Phsysical Education work. Classes were compulsory for both boys and girls. For those unable to take the standard training, a modified program was set up. An exhibition of what students practice daily in physical fitness classes was demonstrated by both the boys and girls for a district meet of physical education teachers and their principals and at the Parent-Teacher Family Potluck, May 19, where the Com- mandos performed push-ups, pull-ups, and burpe stunts while the girls gracefully went through their exercises and the Virginia Reel. The girls started their fitness program by doing the twelve Victory Corps exercises and a modified obstacle course. After practicing the course for several weeks the girls were timed for speed. Arlene Papineau succeeded in running the course in one minute and five seconds. Close on her heels. came Prudy Wertman. her time, one minute and seven seconds. This gym course was alternated with related fitness, an effective study of home nursing, first aid, health, personality, and manners. Competition was keen among the various gym squads as girls collected 50835 pairs of silk and nylon hose. The armed forces and allies will have much needed powder bags and parachutes through the efforts of the girls and their instructor, Miss Mary Margaret Doidge. A strenuous hardening program was met by all boys with calisthenics plus a rough and tumble obstacle course. The Junior Commandos left their classes to assist in shoveling snow around the building during the winter months. The early bird class began at 7:30, an hour before regular school time. to accommodate those students who were excused an hour early in the afternoon to work. The athletic grounds took on a number of pieces of new appara- tus to aid in required assignments. Mr. Kenneth Loop proved to weary and muscle-sore students that they could take it and eventually enjoy it as he lead them in seven classes a day at the head of every line in every class. 25

TAKEN FROM A DRUG STORE QUARTERBACKS DIARY SEPTEMBER 18-Shouldn't happen to a dog is all I can say about tonight's game. Fine thing, losing the first game of the season! We should have beaten, instead, what happens--Bay City beats us 6 to 7. SEPTEMBER 25-Lansing Eastern didn't win-neither did we. But for the love of Pete, you've got to give us credit for trying. Well, a scoreless tie is better than getting beat, I always say. OCTOBER 3-We dood it! Yup! We finally won. What a game! The Saginaw News said we didn't have a chance but we fooled them again. Took Fordson for a 30 to 12 ride. Guess we're in the groove all right, all right! OCTOBER 9-We're really getting hep! Shackled old Lansing Central 20 to 6 on their own play ground. We're on our way. OCTOBER 16-It happened again. Our off day. Must have forgotten to eat our Wheaties! We really got scalped by those Flint Indians, 25 to 2. Guess the weather was bad. OCTOBER 19-Coach Kelly was right on the beam when he talked about football helping to make good U. S. fighting men. The alumni audience must have agreed with him cause they sure nuff brought down the house. The Lettermen elected Mr. Mar- tin L. Jacques, presidentg Dr. W. J. B. Mason, vice-president, and Mr. Thomas Snyder, secretary-treasurer for next season. OCTOBER 24-Homecoming and boy did we come home! Had those Pontiac locals struck dumb. We strutted off with 41 to a mere 25. OCTOBER 30-Hallowe'en ghosts sure fixed us up fine. Imagine ending up with a 7 to 7 score against Owosso! NOVEMBER 14-Glory be-that's two games right in a row. There sure must be priorities on something we need! Did you ever run after a bus and have it pull out just before you got there . . . Hillites running after Flint Northern. P. S. We didn't catch up-nope 18 to 7. Looks like we missed more than a bus! NOVEMBER 26-Spent my last cent on a corsage for the little woman but it sure was worth it cause-yea man-we beat ol' Saginaw High 12 to 0! And did they burn. Wouldn't you if somebody put your fire out for the first time since 1935? What a game! What a team! What a score!
