W. L. Overman, physical education director for the boys, and Mrs. Ruth P. Daly, director of the girls, directed the festival. A great deal of praise is due them and their assistants for this unusual event. The first event was the boys' posture contest. Mr. Overman's B-Nine boys of the fourth period won first place. This class was trained by Mr. Schmidt, one of the student teachers. Mr. Overman's fifth period seventh-grade class and his second period eighth-grade class also tied for first place, but they were unlucky in the toss-up. The boys' department also gave an excellent demon- st1'ation of apparatus work and athletic feats. The judges in the contest were Major D. M. Cheston, commanding officer of the R. O. T. C., Hollywood High School, lllartin Trieb, assistant director of physical education in Los Angeles schoolsg and Francis Dougherty, assistant supervisor of corrective physical education in Los Angeles.
