Drivers 5, Boys' Physical Education class studies football plays under the direction of Mr. Emswiller. and Physical Education One of the newest additions to our school program is the Drivers Education Department. It is offered in the school curriculum in order that proper attitudes, habits, and skills may be devel- oped by young drivers. Inorder to qualify for the course, students must have finished the Drivers Education manual taught in the health classes. Under the supervision of Mr. Stanley Price, the students then receive seven hours of driving prac- tice. The aim of the Physical Education Depart- ment is to provide opportunities for the normal physical growth and development of students, and to make physical education interest-compelling and self-motivating. Physical education and health instructors help each individual to reach the highest development of which he is capable as a personality, to help him learn self-discipline, and to acquire aspirit of cooperation. Records, wrestling mats, jump ropes, and peg boards are among the new equipment purchased by the Physi- cal Education Department. Mrs. Danley instructs the girls in healthful exercises. 67

The main objective of the Agricultural Department is to provide a basic agricultural background for rural youth so that they may more easily find their place in the vari- ous fields of the agricultural industry. The Busi- ness Department believes that business education should place emphasis on developing an economic understanding and competency for all students. Industrial Cooperative Training attempts to create an awareness of changing conditions in the business world, and to help the student prepare for the change. In Distributive Education, both the practical application of classroom instruction, and the shared work experiences are contributing factors in helping a student choose his vocation. 66
