W e Learn Creative Activities P.E. was a course which offered a chance for students to release their excess physical energy in an invigo- rating and active way. These activi- ties were enjoyable as long as every- one followed a few simple require- ments. P.E. was required for at least one semester and in that semester one three week unit of an individual activity was required, while the other three units were left for the student to choose from a list of elective activ- ities. To receive a passing grade in P.E. it was necessary to gather no more than three non-participant days per unit, be judged competent in the particular activities the student chose, and to pass at least four of the six units of the semester. For more enjoyment and to build a greater sense of responsibility students were required to have and wear a shirt, shoes, and shorts, and each student was expected to look after his own property. A creative and exciting activity that many people at Medford Senior High School participated in was expressing themselves in art. Offered in the art department was a group of varied art classes, ranging from general art to individual study. These courses offered methods of exploring the fields of art through designing and making jewelry, pottery work, leather and fabric craftsmanship, stained glass activities and painting, For those of us who wished to enlarge our appreciation of as well as our involvement in creating and expressive acts, there was the chance to become a member of the musical society of Medford Senior High School. Whether our interests were singing, playing an instrument, or just learning to appreciate good music, we had these areas for involvement: choir, band, stage band, orchestra, 20th Century music and music appre- ciation. David Sullivan, lean Howe, Marshall Henkle, and Doug Cheney practice in the band.
