to love the game beyond the prize Sir Henry Newbolt Physical education has a dual purposeg to develop healthy bodies, and to develop sportsmanship. Both girls and boys are given the chance to take gym. Because of limited facilities, gym is required only for the boys and for the fresh- man girls. Two periods are al- lotted so that the students will have time to go to and come from gym. This class for many is merely a diversion from school, while for others it is a chance to let off some of their excess energy stored up dur- ing classes, l Above: To get that ball and make a goal is what these girls are aiming for as they play Coal High in their gym class.

In the typing classes, boys and girls alike learn to type with a speed and accuracy needed to obtain and hold their future business positions.
