There is a time for all things, but for recreation . . In the girls' gym classes, the female gender has a chance to try out for many sports such as volleyball, tennis, basketball, and field hockey- along with calisthenics. During the fall and spring, swimming is also among the array of gym activities. Under the supervision of Miss Elliott and Miss Green, the girls become quite capable of challenging competi- tion, as was proven in the inter-class basketball tournament. The P.E. program affords the girls the opportunity to practice the ideals of fair play and to acquire the skills that will make their spare time mor joyable. it is always time C Cfl- ig, ,s ? 3 'j V :I ming V . f 3 5 ,Mx -,'f- I ',,'., ' .
