G m, health classes further individualism The goal ot the Physical Education Department was to correlate mental and social growth with physical devel- opment in helping the Centralite to become a well-rounded individual. North Central formulated a grueling physical education program for its li7l spohomores. ln this program each individual developed the basic skills used in all athletics but strove to excel in at least one sport: badminton, gym- nastics, wrestling, football, archery, volleyball, track, or basketball. Also in- cluded were activities to develop bal- ance and rhythm. Each Friday music echoed from the gymnasium as the students promenaded about while en- ioying weekly square dancing. While some students strengthened their bodies, others learned in health class how they function. When not con- centrating on anatomy, these classes studied the bookwork for their drivers' tests. As in past years, the drivers' education program was continued dur- ing the summer. Last summer over 900 students from all over the city partici- pated, making NC's program the largest in the state. 1 v f?5f Before one of the summer driver education classes ventures out onto the road, up-man Riley gives last-minute instructions, This year there were five summer sessions with over twenty instructors.
