Specialized Fields Mold TomorroW's Leaders Elmer Harbin, Professor of Physical Education, has im- proved the physical prowess of the students of MANC in the arts of calisthenics, basketball, tennis, volleyball, soft- ball, archery, and table tennis. The poise and confidence gained through the attainment of skill in these sports has helped many Mid-America students. Coach Harbin has also been known to teach four-legged animals in his classes.
