through individual help aerosol horn The flexible English Department curriculum let each teacher adapt to the needs and the potential of each class and helped the classes devel- op into more student-oriented center. Instruction helped to develop the humanistic goals and attitudes needed by the students. It also in- stilled insight into life and human emotions in the students through an increase in the fine literature around them, guiding the students toward a more effective communi- cation with an understanding of their fellow man. The work of the English Department was geared to stimulate the interests of all North Side students. The curriculum con- sisted of themes, compositions, research papers, the acting of plays, book reports, poetry, and much more. All of these went into giving Redskins not only increased general knowledge, but also improving their personal vocabularies, which was extremely important. Their world demanded that most become edu- cated, well versed young adults. North Side ' s English Department was one Redskins could all be proud of.

Girls learn value of fair play in sports Sophomore girls run twice around the new all-weather track when the weather permits, learn- ing many activities outside and inside. The girls ' physical education classes taught sportsmanship as well as physical coordination to the girls. It was also a time when the students could relax and enjoy different ac- tivities as well as learn new skills. Sophomores participated in arch- ery, badminton, volleyball, gymnas- tics, co-ed square dancing, tennis, and more. Mrs. Kathleen Capper and Miss Anne Donnelly directed the girls ' physical education classes with help from student leaders. Since the swimming pool was not completed, the credit for swimming was not required for graduation of the Class of 1973. Completion of new tennis courts started a new ac- tivity, however. Girls learned the basic knowledge of tennis which included the stance, the parts of the racket, keeping score, and the rules to follow when playing. Nancy McCue demonstrates exactly how to hold and use the bow in archery, just one of the many sports the girls enjoy. Playing field hockey, girls learn the various equipment, rules, and skills. They are later tested for their accomplishments and progress. 12 Phys Ed
