The illnesses brought co the attention of the health service department arc usually little ones — most commonly head colds, but health service is very important on a campus. A medical examination is required of every student before entering Bethel. It won't hurt a bit,” Dr. Sommerdorf and Marion are telling Betty Mattson. Betty looks half convinced. MRS.

SOUTHWEST CORNER ELLEN LEHR. M.A. Business Department The business department is located in one corner room of the college building. Students, other than business students, almost forget that it is there unless as they come down the stairs they hear the clatter, of typewriters. Business courses are very popular with girls who wish to take only one year of training. Among students who stay for more than one year, typing is most frequently taken. MOST RECENT ADDITIONS DEL RAY PETERSON, M.A. Head of Physical Education Department Physical Education, Athletics LYNN LL'NDIN, B.A. Physical Education Tennis courts were added to the campus last fall at a cost of approximately $6700. This figure includes the cost.of landscaping as well as the actual construction of the courts. Access to courts is a help to the tennis teams. The courts have been a source of enjoyment to many tennis enthusiasts this spring. They are a good outlet for that physical energy that prevents one from sitting inside studying on a beautiful spring day. A second addition was a third year to the physical education program, enabling students to minor in physical education. Score keeper, Jim Mac Fad yen, wishes Lawrence Van Heerden and Bud Lee a pood game. This game was the official opening of the new tennis courts in October.
