Fitness Program Continues ANNE WEBB Physical Educa- tion; BS Atlantic Christian; MA East Carolina GERALD GEORGE WHISENHUNT WHITFIELD Geometry; AB Cataba Physical Education; AB College, MA East Caro- Lees McCrae, East Car- lina; Football Wres- olina; Baseball Coach, tling, Track Coach; Varsity Club Advisor; NCEA, PTA. Spirited and serious, PE boys get set for a game of touch football. Physical fitness continues to be im- portant to GHS. Required of each physically-abled student, the physical education program is designed to build a healthy body, a sportsmanlike atti- tude, and an interest in clean com- petition. Girls as well as boys are given the opportunity to participate in both in- dividual and team sports at GHS, and this year the department featured such interesting competition as powder puff football. Though the main focus of the de- partment is on keeping the individual physically fit, the department attempts, too, to school the students in the rules and procedures of spectator sports so that each student can follow GHS teams with knowledge that breeds en- thusiasm. 29
