For this reason P. H. S. offers an unusually large number of different kinds of athletics. In offering these sports each indivildual may participate in the par- ticular sport in which he is interested and may gain a wider knowledge of athletics. These athletics are offered not only for the athletes but also for the student body and the puhl'e. The large attendance at the athletic events this year showed that the people of Parsons are interested in the good, clean entertainment that P. H. S. offers them. The int.ra-mural sports are held in the spring instead of the track meets. The purpose of these sports is to give to the boys who haven't had a chance to participate in any other sports during the fall and winter, an opportunity to get a taste of competitive athletics. The ilitra--:mural sports are divided into three different groups: basketball, armory ball, and football. In the basketball tournament three men make up a team. They are divided according to height. Each team has a tall man, a middle-sized man, and a small man. ' 1 The armory ball teams are divided according to grades and not by height. The games were played on the football field during activity periods and after school. The football group studied football rules and played toueh', football. Prizes were awarded to the winners.
