Mqnwell B.S. B.S. B.S. MSU Olivet Nazarene CMU MSU Physical Education classes have been planned to give students small samples of a wide variety of sports. The teachers attempt to cover as many activi- ties as possible though time limits them somewhat. Freshman physical education for both boys and girls is divided into three groups: health, gym, and pool. The sophomores have a complete year of gym. During the spring and fall, the boys are outside for track and field activities, such as broad iump and shotput, along with some of the more competitive sports-tennis, golf, and football. Their indoor activi- ties include conditioning every day followed by tumb- ling or trampoline work, perhaps, or a game of bas- ketball or volleyball. The girls' outdoor sports include field hockey, archery, and soccer. Besides the regular indoor activi- ties, they have fencing, modern dance, and modern exercise or free tumbling to music.
