Physical Education Progress has long been symbolized by the de- velopment of the human body. From the Olym- piads of three thousand years ago to those of today, men have been striving in physical com- petition. However, taking modern athletics in a broader view, it is a recognized fact that training results not only in a higher physical development but in all-around betterment, Split- second accu1'acy, instant comprehension, the ability to draw logical conclusions in a flash of the mind are the result of careful training in these sports. Truly, modern athletics is more of a game between brains than brawn. In this branch of development Virginia has done its work well. Our athletic department has a record of which it can be justly proud. As the other branches of education have been specializ- ed, so has our athletic department directed by Mr. Hurst been divided under the supervision of Mr. Michels, Mr. Eide, Mr. Boardman, Miss Por- than, Miss Swedberg, Miss Lomen, and Miss Anderson.

Shops In addition to academic courses, the Virginia High School offers numerous vocational sub- jects in which are taught the mechanical trades. These subjects are given in a system of shops, one of the best in the country. Each boy in junior high school is given a varied course in shop training in order that he may choose more easily the mechanical trade which he might desire to take up. After this intro- ductory training, he may choose any of the fol- lowing shop courses: printing, woodwork, turn- ing, foundry, forging, machine shop, electricity, auto repair, or drafting. In the printing department the student has hand composition, press work, and some linotype in- struction. In woodwork and turning, he learns to work with carpentry tools and machines. Foundry, forging, and machine shop consist of instruction concerning metals and metallic pro- ducts. The electricity course helps to explain the mysteries of electrical appliances. Auto repair is beneficial in teaching youthful mech- anics the workings of the auto. TOP--W00dW07k practice. CENTER-Mr. Wieland. RIGHTTMY. Buntrock, Mr. Pottsmitlv.

l l Music The instrumental music department of Roose- velt lligh is an example of what conscientious training and instruction can develop in the way of youthful musicians from high school student material. The instrumental department is well organized and has its place among the regular classes of instruction, the band rehearsals being held during the fourth period every day and the orchestra on Tuesday and Friday evening. In- strumental students have not only the privi- lege of free use of instruments, but also have access to a remarkably well-stocked library. Mr. Verner Delianey, who took the place of Mr. Uonald tl. Tuttle at the beginning of the second semester, makes this statement for the annual, The Roosevelt High School vocal department at present is comprised of a mixed chorus that meets twice a week. From the weakest depart- ment in the high school and one which has not, evidently, attracted the students, We are hoping the annual of 1934 will have to refuse us space for our various activities.
