pkgdicaf glvlucafion an QQAA lelddftnlen td Q During the year 1939-1940, the Girls' Physical Educa- tion Department enjoyed several changes, both within the department and in its relations with other departments. The girls, gym periods were lengthened to 80 minutes and several special classes were held in rhythms and swimming. This year the department assisted with the operetta, with a dramatic class, the Badminton Club, and the Gym Get-Together. Miss Anderson, Miss Veach, and Miss Burk- hard were new-comers during the year and Mrs. Rehage and Miss Adair departed. O Whether or not they realize it, each boy in New Trier owes the Physical Education Department a vote of thanks. The faculty of this department not only conducts the gym classes, but in doing so helps lay a foundation for intra-mural sports by endeavoring to teach the rules of the game and good sportsmanship. As a part of his gym training, each boy receives instruction and practice in the major sports, which, it is hoped, he will put in use in his outside activities. While the swimming is under Coach Jackson, 6'Duke Childs, Department Head, and his efficient faculty, conducted the other classes. Mr. Lauer is the only new addition to the faculty. Q The Health Department with its conscientious workers is one of the most important functions of the school. Estab- ,lished to handle emergency cases, take charge of physical exams and health and safety campaigns, it has also given blood pressure tests to all students who participated in ath- letics. - GIRLS' PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPT.

ome conomicd, .gncluzifriaf ana! ibramafic O The courses of the Home Economics Department are designed expressly to train students in the domestic arts. Courses are offered in cooking, clothing, and home furnish- ing. Again this year the department assisted in the costumes for the productions of the dramatic and musical organiza- tions. In the Foods course many enthusiastic housewives en- rolled for night work in the Cooking School. As a result of excellent guidance in sewing, the students were able to put on a worthwhile fashion show near the ,end of the term. Q The Industrial Arts Department includes in its curricula courses in mechanical and architectural drawing, and wood, auto, and machine shop. The emphasis in this department is placed on giving the students consumer information which will enable them to judge products more wisely, and not necessarily on developing various skills. The courses, how- ever, do provide the necessary background for the pre-engi- neering student. 0 The Dramatic Division, only three years old, has offered during the year 1939-1940 eight different courses in which more than 200 students have been enrolled. Speech im- provement and training in acting gave us better performers for student plays. Stage craft and Theatre Arts make possible the more elaborate and attractive settings provided for these plays. el06U il'l'l en tif HOME ECONOMICS DEPT. FACULTY Mrs. J. W.
