WE DlDN'T NEGLECT OUR FUN EITHER . . . All work and no play had no place in Peru High, as is verified by the picture at the right. ln and out oi school our stu- dents enjoyed themselves. Clubs Were especially successful this year, many of them participating in all sorts of patriotic drives, such as a key drive, a stocking drive, bond drives, a stamp-buying con- test, scrap collection, and a victory book campaign. Since these clubs offered such varied activities, students had the oppor- tunity of joining the club best suited to their own personal likes. .14.

Good Exercise Good Food . . . After the long winter months of finding our exercise and recreation in- doors, who can say that the pleasures of the open air don't appeal immensely to them. That is exactly what the kids in the lower left hand picture felt when they decided to spend an afternoon in the park. With the new gym classes came a new program of Utoughening up for the boys. One way this objective was accomplished was through instructive boxing. The roughouse method gave way to the more scientific way of self defense. However, indoor or outdoor exercise had its purpose in build- ing good American citizens. A familiar scene around school is that of the usual noon rush in the cafeteria. Thanks to Mrs. Nich- elson, who capably prepares the food and supervises the serving of it, we were assured of a tasty, well-prepared, well-balanced meal.
