Phys. Ed. Offers Exercise, Health, and Just Plain Fun The importance of the student’s physical fit- ness has never been underestimated at Lincoln High. Physical Education classes expose the student to various sports and activities, relieving the pres- sure of classroom study and enabling him to have fun while remaining fit. The excellence of Lincoln High’s physical education program is made evident by the school’s constant high scoring on the Na- tional Physical Fitness Test. Health Education emphasizes the importance of sound physical, mental, and emotional health. Through lectures and audio-visual aids, the stu- dent is given guidelines for a healthier life.

Mrs. Edythe Cascini Alva Cavett Mrs. Ruth Siefkes Faculty Librarian Instructional Medio Librarian Human Relations Council Forum Library Committee Specialists Serve School In every large school there are certain re- sponsibilities and services that cannot be catego- rized in any one department. At Lincoln High, these tasks fall to a small group of specialists. A well-stocked library is kept for both student and faculty reference. Books, magazines, and news- papers are made available to help each student in doing research for his various classes. The use of audio-visual aids and duplicating devices is regulated through the Instructional Media area. Films and slides are used to supple- ment standard classroom materials. Lincoln High has for some time had the serv- ices of a full-time nurse who, in addition to tend- ing cuts and bruises, keeps a record of each student’s health. Mr . Audree Ma ie School Nurse Future Nurses Andy Antoniskis, Kathy Karnopp, and Gary Smith locate books through the card catalog while Bry Curry and Sandy Sattler consult the Readers Guide to find magazine articles. 29
