Ii It-1 9 3 0 GIRLS' ATHLETICS AND PHYSICAL TRAINING NDER the supervision of Miss Jeannette Clark, the high school lassies have made great strides toward physical development. The girls, prior to this year, were forced to be content with what physical training they were able to afford themselves. At the opening of school last fall, officials of D. C. H. S., mindful of the necessity of an organized system of girls' physical training, secured the services of Miss Clark to take full charge of the bodily development of the high school lassies. Twice a week, on Tuesday and Thursday through- out the year, Miss Clark has directed the physical education classes, and the splendid results she has achieved are evidences of her proficiency. Miss Clark, who is a graduate of the Chicago Normal School of Physical Education, Chicago, Illinois, also coached the girls in their two inter-school basketball games, as well as the inter-class contests, Playing their first inter-school basketball game in three years, the Lady Commodores succumbed to the lassies of New Haven high school on December 16th, by a score of 39-16. Inexperienced as they were, and battling against a team that for several years has been recognized as one of the best girls' sextet in the state, the Ladies never ceased fighting. In an interclass game played as a preliminary to the Commodore-Lima fracas, the score ended deadlocked at 8-8. Numerous inter-class contests were held throughout the year under the direction of Miss Clark, basketball and volley ball being the principal diversion. All classes of the physical training were held in the high school gymnasium. Sr. M. Helen Clare assisted Miss Clark in her many duties. About fifty girls composed the class. Calisthenics, tending to develop the various muscles and tendons of the body, formed the greater part of each class. The latter portion of the classes was devoted to games and contests of all sorts. The girls report a splendid recreation. By her personality and method of teaching. Miss Clark won the acclaim of every high school girl who was a member of the class. The results of her efforts readily present themselves. and it is our earnest wish that Miss Clark may be liack with us again next year. Ninety.
