Boys’ Physical Education Boys’ physical education classes exercise to keep fit. Mr. Andy Hayes Mr. Tom Allebaugh The boys’ physical education department has pro¬ moted good sportsmanship and team co-operation among the ninth and the tenth grade boys this year. The students have participated in football, basketball, volleyball, wrestling, tumbling, track, and softball ac¬ tivities. For the first time flag football was introduced at Broadway. The Physical Education Department tries to prepare students in use of leisure time. Special re¬ ports on basketball and football have been required in some classes and boys have studied the safety and first aid and mental health in the health education field. By helping boys develop sports skills, the physi¬ cal education department determined the quality and performance of Broadway’s varsity and junior varsity football and basketball teams.

Home economics constitutes a field of knowledge and service which stands for: strengthening the home and family as an important cultural, social, and economic unit of society; the contribution of the home and family to the best development of the individual as a well- rounded person, as a homemaker, as a participant in the world of work, and as a citizen; and the develop¬ ment of community services important to family life. Because of the changing position of the home and family and the needs of homemakers, more emphasis is being placed on homemaking courses dealing with con¬ sumer education and home management. Wise buying, artistic improvisation in the home, and family relations are stressed. The best part of a fashion show—the refreshments! 27
