GIRLS' PHYSICAL ED UCATION No school can be complete without some form of physical activities, for its boys and girls. Human :beings are so constructed that they are healthier and happier using their bodies as well as their minds. Physical education is not, however, simply muscular activity. In the gymnasium, students are given experience in .self-direction, self control, leadership, fellowship, co-operation, unselfishness and sportsmanship. All these traits lead to a finer democracy. This year we have prepared a vscheldule so that every girl in school will have at least two hours of physical education a week. Formerly, we have had Very little besides basketball. One g'roup of girls is under the direction of Mr. Heddericg, and another under the direction of Miss Boutilier, while the third group is entire- nly carried on by junior and senior -student leaders with Miss Boutilier as aidvisor. During the year our groups have had work in calisthenics, individual stunts, couple stunts, group stunts, relay races, pyramids, and military marching. We have learned: to play a variety of new games: volley ball, ten- nequoit, mewcomb, and nine court basketball. -Virginia Wheeler '45 BASEBALL If the Hartland Academy athletic field ever dries up, the prospects. for a successful base- ball season appear bright this year. There are only three veterans: Floyd Austin, Raymond Ames, and Vernard Vanaldestine. However, the number of promising candidates makes us fairly confident of a good season. Candi- dates are: Catchens: Floyd Austin, Paul Hughes. Pitcher-sz Raymond Ames, Arthur Chad- Iborne, Harlow Powers, Vernard Vanadestine. Infield: Wendell Bufbar, Harry Ballard, Har- land Emery, Charles Siherburne, Earl Mc- Lean, Lowell Knowles, Allen Thorne, Marvin Lovely, Fred Towle, Arthur Chapman, James Mills, Richard Mower, George Baker, and Richard Lucas. .
