Miss Sparkman leads daily exercises in gym class to keep her students physically fit. “Sound minds in sound bodies” sums up the efforts of Murphy’s Physical Education Department. A staff of twelve energetic instructors, five women and seven men, undertakes the task of developing one thousand five hun- dred seventy girls and one thousand two hundred fifty-seven boys for entering the adult world. Students arc strengthened through exercise sessions. Learning that confidence and teamwork are necessary for success in life through three phases of sports. The first is composed of those conducted in physical education class. Intramural sports, those under- taken voluntarily by students after school, arc included in the second class. The third, which consists of the varsity sports, has the greatest degree of training and preparation. Upon his graduation the student is ready to become a well- rounded and able part of the adult world, and this depart- ment achieves its aim to develop sound bodies.
