Beverly Rasmussen. , A jolly group of students, banded together to assimilate some of the German language and learn some of the habits and customs of that land, are the members of the German Club. Handicapped by having no regular class period for in- struction, the German students gave up their activity period, which was very frequently cut to make way for assemblies, to study German. They have learned to say, Hlch spreche ein wenig Deutsch, and 'AGute Nacht! without breaking their tongues in the process. They salute everyone they know with a jovial Wie geht es lhnen? at every chance meeting. Startling their friends and teachers with a frequent USprechen Sie Deutsch? they pepper their speech at odd times with bits of German they have retained. They are regular demons for teasing their com- rades with a bewildering jumble AN OFFICIAL RIDE of foreign sounds. j l Having availed themselves of a I means of rising out of mediocri- ty, these students are making the most of it.

O maintain life on a high level of vitality and creative ness, to avoid periods of physical and mental depression, to reinforce and recreate human powers exhausted through toil and daily burdens of life, athletics are provided at Millard High School for all who wish to participate in them. A year-round program of recreation and physical education offers such activities as football, basketball, boxing, wrestling, dancing, field and track events, baseball, and tennis. All these sports serve to lend significance to lives otherwise meaninglessg they involve discipline--the discipline of con- trolling interests. Their value depends upon the intelli- gence with which they are utilized. Supervision, discrimina- tion, and guidance help make all activities wholesome, help develop loyalties, skills and devotion-participants as well as spectators. Athletics ceases to be the play life, ceases to be mere amusement as soon as it promotes civilization. For in itself it is neither good nor bad, it requires a study of consequences. Keeping this fact in mind, proper recreation turns out to be a gateway of individual experiences and not just a func- tion for giving relaxation. lt effects personality, moral char- acter, and the spiritual outlook of life.
