PHYSICAL EDUCATION I do! I do!” The physical education teachers included Mr. Merlin Mitteis instructing the boys and Miss Kathy Wondra working with the girls. Starting second quarter, Mrs. Bobette Colgrove took over Miss Wondra’s classes. The boys and girls participated in basketball, football, wrestling, soccer, volleyball, and softball. For the first time in the school curriculum an Advanced Girl’s and Boy’s P.E. course was added. This was set up as a conditioning program for the girls and a chance for boys to take more physical education.
