to have good health and happiness All youth need to develop and maintain mental and phy- sical health. A school must fulfill its duty to its students by training them not only in athletics, it must develop a sound physical education program as well. Hammond High has succeeded in preparing its students to this end. A nurse and a student staff solve students' temporary troubles. The nurse is a member of the Hammond High faculty. Health records are maintained by the nurse and used by counselors. There is a school doctor who gives periodic health examinations. Hammond High promotes a wide range of physical activi- ties, some for small groups, some for large groups, and some for individuals. Hammond High School provides daily gym classes and swimming classes for boys and girls. Girls intramural activi- ties include basketball, speedball, volleyball, baseball, and ping-pong. Boys activities provide many opportunities for indi- viduals to display their talents or to find leisure. Most of these activities include the Turkey Run, horseshoe con- tests, free throw contests, and inter-advisory basketball tour- naments. Hammond High School offers almost every available ath- letic activity to its students. Through participation in swim- ming, tennis, golf, baseball, cross country, track, football, and basketball, students learn the meaning of athletic hon- esty, hard work, fair play, and satisfaction. Hammond High School has done its part in developing the minds and bodies of its students. Seventy-five

Besides sponsoring the two annual banquets held after the football and baseball seasons, and financially supporting the intra-mural program, the H-Men also sold basketball programs at all home games. Two large tasks, the financing and organization of the Athletic Hall of Fame and the encouragement of the estab- lishment of the National Athletic Scholarship Society, were undertaken and met with satisfying results.
