fgitgdicaf gycfvwafionf Cfoww For the first time in the history of Hickman High School, Kewpie students have the opportunity of taking physical education five days a week, This was made possible by the addition of a new gymnasium, including a much larger shower, locker rooms for both girls and boys and new physical education offices. The new gym has made it possible for two classes to be carried on at one time. This is done by an electrically operated partition which divides the gym into two equal sections. In the photo at right, one of the girls' gym classes demonstrates their skill in learn- ing basketball. 5 156 QM!
