'You've been so nice to me since y PHY ICAL EDUCATIO The Physical Education Department strives to keep the student healthy, both physically and mentally. This is accomplished not only in hygiene and gym classes but also in strong intramural and interscholastic programs. Gym occupies four periods a week, except when hygiene replaces one period for about ten weeks. In addition to softball, basketball, track, tumbling, and dancing, each class goes through a program of varied activities, such as football and wrestling for boys and hockey and tennis for girls. In hygiene class during the freshman year, the girls study home nursing while the boys have a general health course. The following three years of hygiene include anatomy, first aid, and social-sex hygiene. A V MARILYN TAICIA It 'xl Physical Education, Driver Education Anytime YOU,Rl5 ready. MAUDE R.
