There is perhaps no subject dearer to the hearts of most of the girls at Edison than physical education. This is probably due to the fact that the physical education pro- gram is so varied that there is something which interests every girl. Its aim is four-fold, namely, to develop every girl to her highest degree of normal physical efliciency, to correct physical defects, to encourage wholesome physical activities in leisure time, and to create and develop desir- able character traits. Each day has its different activity. One day we spend in learning dance steps, the purpose of which is to develop grace and coordination of bodily movements. One day we practice to perfect our skill in certain self-testing activities such as basketball goal, baseball pitch, baseball and basket- ball throw for distance, tennis serve, and many others. On one day we engage in formal activities 5 then we stand our straightest and try to develop good posture and graceful body lines. On wholesome living day we learn many health habits which help us to eat wisely, to keep physically whole- some and clean, to dress properly and to behave as young ladies should. Sports day is the day we like best, for then we are allowed to play games without supervision so long as we are good sports and play the game according to rule. One very important part of our physical education pro- gram is the noon game program. Every noon as many games are scheduled during each lunch period as there are Page One Hundred and Twenty-one
