PHYSICAL EDUCATIO LIRVIVAL 0F FITTEST The typical muscle-building exercises started each Physical Education class for Bulldogs. Then the fun began, and students pursued the different seasonal sports. In the fall, boys got into shape by kicking around a soccer ball and swatting tennis balls, while girls raced up and down the hockey field, chasing little white hockey balls. When the thermometer dropped below fifty degrees, the gym became the arena in which activity was centered. Tumbling, apparatus, basketball, wrestling, and volleyball were the activities which helped the students 'Lkeep fit-be happyf, Many of the girls had a special experience when they learned the minuet and the heel-toe polka, as a part of their square-dancing and folk-dancing unit. The trees began to blossom and again the gym classes took to the great outdoors. Girls tried softball and tennis, some attempted to conquer lacrosse, a sport introduced to Brandywine by Mrs. Daly two years ago. Meanwhile the boys were busy running around the track and the baseball diamond. Sophomores participated in the state-required Health course. The topics covered were Social Hygiene, First Aid, and Mental Health. MR. JAMES R.
