Physical Education Gets It Together Ms. Peggy Wilkins Fred Felts Charles Pearce The main objectives of the P.E. department are to further develop the student’s body physically and to promote good sportsmanship. Many activities are taught, ranging from basketball in the winter to tennis in the spring. In the first semester of the ninth grade, health is taught along with physical education. During the second semester, a useful course in first aid is taught. In the tenth grade, driver’s education is taught during the first semester with drug education following in the second semester. With these courses the students gain knowledge they can apply in many areas. Coach Perky poses for the camera. Joe Parker Ricky Payne Larry Harvey 23

With formation of the Band Boosters Club, the band has been aided financially and was able to get new uniforms. The intermediate band has been working very hard this year, and has performed in our Christmas assembly. Mr. Kidd, our new choral direc- tor, has organized various singing and playing activi- ties, in addition to his regular classes. Mr. Cayne, our industrial arts teacher, has been busy teaching the construction of various useful articles, as well as teaching mechanical drawing.

A yearning for the good old days manifested itself through the enthusiastic support of Clash Day and Graffiti Day. (Our parents called it “Tacky Day”.) The main idea was to have fun and show our school spirit. Spirit in general revived. After school we enjoyed such canned nostalgia as LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE and THE WALTONS on TV. GONE WITH THE WIND and THE SOUND OF MUSIC were eagerly anticipated to make their TV premiers. In the movie houses we rushed to see THE RETURN OF THE PINK PANTHER, THE WILDERNESS FAMILY, BAMBI, and SNOW WHITE. Marbara Woods likes to look at things in a different perspective. 24 Craig Elam has this weighty problem well in hand.
