Good Health Leads To Happiness Health class is a place that every LaSalle student has been. Mr. Barkley and Mr. Boocher have a chance to teach them all. Learning about first aid; when to leave a person alone and when to try to help is one part of health class. Students learned about injuries and sickness. The most emphasis, however, was put on preventing disease and injury. Students learned about good nutrition, the importance of exercise and all the basics needed to stay healthy. Another important topic dis- cussed in health class was per- sonal relationships, emotions, and mental health. The teachers helped students to solve some of their problems and students helped each other do the same. Attendance is a daily task for teachers. Concentration on first aid is needed for future emergencies. Mr. Phillip Barkley, Department Head Mr. Wallace Boocher Health is not a laughing matter. Are there really 206 bones in the body? 24 Mornings

Keeping In Shape Can Be Fun Mr. Ronald Eberhard Learning skills in PE, Miss Betty Mathews Mr. Clemens Rzeszewski Department Head A physically fit body is the key to a strong mind. This is the goal which was sought in the physical education classes this year. This year ' s PE classes were a little different. Not different in size, but in curriculum. Because of an abundance of injuries, the trampoline was put away for good. There was still football, volleyball, basketball, swim- ming, tumbling, wrestling, and the weight room. Sophomores had to take gym as a requirement toward gradu- ation. They studied the basic principles of physical educa- tion. After completing the required gym, upperclassmen could have taken High Skill PE. In this class students could excel in the area of greatest interest. These classes help to prepare everyone who took them for participation in sports- oriented activities in later life. A friendly game of basketball is played during Mr. Rzeszewski ' s gym class. Cretchen Carrington works out on the universal gym during class. Mornings 25
