In a world where 8 out of 10 people subsist on a starvation diet and in a nation which tends to be overfed but undernourished, the physical well-being of the populace has been one of national concern. The President of the United States has established a Council on Youth Fitness. It has aimed to encourage schools all over the nation to enact a physical education program that would incorporate at least 15 minutes of vigorous exercise every day. What seems so incomprehensible is the fact that many schools and homes do not en- courage or provide for even this minimal amount of physical education. This is a nation of spectator sports where the average person's most strenuous exercise L to leave the comfortsmihis easy4:hair.for another round of pop-corn, soda pop, or hot dog. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent annually on sports events viewed by the hours on-the-scene or through the video tube. We have sit-down strikes, sit-in demonstra- tions, and situations of every type. Is it any wonder then, that in this last decade furniture manufacturers across the land have had to reproportion chairs to accommodate our spreading Americans? The physical education program of Im- perial Schools goes way beyond the mini- mal and seeks to develop and express the maximum of each students' capacities. There are no traditional recess periods during the day in which young elementary students are left to their own desires, but tloere are three thirty-minute periods of phy- sical education throughout the day in which they are taught and trained by teachers in a variety of sports and games. These teachers not only supervise the activities, but get right in and participate themselves, for they know that the best teacher is a good example.
