PHYSICAI EDUCA TION The whole person is one who has a trained body as well as a trained mind and here at Balmoral Hall, Physical Education is becoming an important part of our School programme. A widening circle of opportunities in our games world provides every girl with a chance to participate, and foolish is the student who passes by the opportunity to learn some new skill each year. Increased participation in inter-School games, continued keen and enthusiastic rivalry in House matches and the eagerness of new girls to learn new skills, emphasize the importance of our physical education programme today. For whom is the games programme? The athlete enjoys the challenge which combines an alert mind, enthusiasm, purpose, teamwork and physical stamina. The student recognizes the valuable mental relaxation provided by a games period. A physically exhausting match can sometimes be just the refreshment needed to solve an academic problem. The development of a strong and healthy body is only one of the many facets of physical education. More significant are the character-building qualities, which games seem to instill in the more active participants - comradeship, leadership and sportsmanship. Friendships often develop from competitive spirits striving together to attain a common goal. On the games field and in the gymnasium are found opportunities to lead, and there too one learns a willingness to be led. Most important is the gradual growth of true sportsmanship. Beginning with games in the junior school and right on to the last school match, the student is learning how to play the game fairly and to accept the outcome in a sportsmanlike manner, whether the result be victory or defeat. This surely is a training for life. To set the cause above renown, To love the game beyond the prizef' H. J. NEWBOLT SUSAN BRACKEN - Editor Firr'

UNITED NA TIONS This December, I enjoyed the experience of being one of three Manitoba high school students chosen to attend a Model United Nations in Mountain Lake, Minnesotag rough- ly one hundred other delegates, from Min- nesota and Wisconsin, also participated. Each attending delegation was assigned a country other than their own to represent. The delegates' objective was to learn the position taken by the adopted nation on va- rious controversial world situations, and to defend the position. The purpose of this was to increase the students' worldwide interests, to make them more broadmindedg for they often had to argue in favor of a policy with which they did not personally agree. As we were the only non-American dele- gation, we represented the United States of Americag this was a difficult task for us, as so many authorities on American policy were present. The first session of the General Assembly opened on a humorous note, for we were NH' introduced to the members of the Canadian delegation who were wearing name tags bearing the Canadian ensign. On our insis- tence they raised a point of order, and the president promised to rectify the situation immediately. This was followed by other epi- sodes, such as the Indian delegation picket- ing the cafeteria, where roast beef was being served, and the Communist Block continually staging demonstrations against the West. But the day was also filled with inform- ation and profitable discussion. We argued heatedly with Russia on methods of enforc- ing nuclear disarmament, and with Britain on the emerging African states. I even had occasion to attack Canadian financial policy on peace-keeping operations. In the evening we concluded with a ban- quet, at which our delegation was honoured by a standing ovation for so successfully giving the conference an international flav- our.
