Physical Education Foremost among the objectives of the Physical Education Department is the attainment of physical fitness including both physical and mental health. Participation in physical educa- tion classes is mandatory for all students. Var- ied activities designed to promote physical fitness are stressed, including calisthenics, gymnastics, and sports. The competitive phase of this curriculum for students of average ability is the intramural program. For those boys and girls of superior athletic ability inter-school athletic contests provide valuable experiences. SHERMAN A. KINNEY Springfield College B.S., M.Ed.i Football. Basketball.
