on the Playgrounds of Math and Physical Education PHYSICAL EDUCATION MR. ED WOODROOF BS, University of Kentucky; University of Tennessee; Middle Tennessee State; Phy. Ed.; Football and Baseball. Amid the groans of the athletic field and the aches of its aftermath, Glynn Academy’s aspiring young Samsons tell themselves. “It’s good for me.” The calculatedly healthful tortures of physical education serve to mold firm, strong bodies, to complement students’ sound minds, and to supply the vigor necessary for them to bear the burden of their studies. Besides, muscles are going to be very big this year, and everyone wants to be “in.” “The future belongs to the fit,” and the unfit won’t fit. gsr ' mm . a b s li MRS.

Varied Figures Appear Some students leave their first college math class feeling like the wreck of the Hesperus. Graduates of some high schools go through life with the suspicion that the grocery clerk is short-changing them. Glynn Academy students count them- selves lucky that they do not have to deal with such feelings of insecurity. Fortunately, their mathematics department pro- vides an excellent background in all phases of mathematics for both college courses and the problems of everyday life. This knowledge is increasingly necessary in a world that lives more and more by the slide rule. Teachers who can convey the fascinating relationship be- tween the number system’s abstract operations and the real world which depends on those operations keep math classes from being dull. Mathematics teaches many valuable lessons in precision and discipline, including how not to become overemotional if one lamentably neglects to multiply by four and misses all of a one-problem test.

As one rounds the corner of Mr. Warren’s office on his way to the second floor of the Science Building, he is quite often appalled at the sight of haggard, acid-spattered young chemists. To the seasoned science student this scene indicates that it is lab day. and even the most unwary will sense an air of experimentation. Glynn Academy’s Science Department is the site of nu- merous chaotic spectacles. Mad centrifuges go on the ram- page, destroying rack upon rack of test tubes, while Glynn scientists fearlessly sip acid. Undismayed, the science faculty artfully projects award-winning method into this madness. MR. DILLARD MAXWELL BSEd, Crorgia Teacher» College; Rutger» University; Northwestern University; Biology.
