The first half of the year is devoted primarily to the acting methods. ln the second semes- ter, the students deal with the director's role in the theater. In Dramatics I the students begin with the basics of pantomime and body movement and progress to vocal characterizations. Groups of would-be actors and actresses present scenes from various plays. Individual students give monologues to the class. In Dramatics ll a broad survey of all other aspects of the theater is conducted. The students study make- up, costumes, direction, production, design, and styles of acting. Each student receives the chance to use this knowledge in producing and directing a scene from a play.

Gym offers students variety In 1966-67, physical education offered the most in- teresting and varied .curriculum ever. Girls' gym saw many new innovationlsf ln addition to such traditional courses as volleyball, basketball, field hockey, and swimming, the girls participated in fencing, dance and posture, and tennis. One particularly interesting course of study was methods, offered to Seniors third mark- ing period. Here the girls learned of physical deteriora- tion in the human body and methods of combatting the long siege of old age. The methods course was of use to students applying for summer iobs as camp counselors. On the other side of the gym the emphasis was placed upon improvement of coordination. To ac- complish this goal the boys took part in tumbling, touch football, basketball, softball, and many other activities. Boys who participated in extra-curricular sports were exempted from regular gym.
