Home-ec Related ork Enhances Learning Although the woman's place is no longer just in the home, home economics is still important. In addition to general homemaking courses, home and family liv- ing, Home Economics Co-operative Education QHECEJ and Child Development are offered. Students in these programs learn to cook, sew, care for fami- lies, hold home-ec related jobs, and study the devel- opment of children. This field is not limited to girls only. Each year a growing number of boys sign up for courses in the once all female department.

Co-Ed P.E. Classes Interest Students Amid mind-stimulating courses, Paschal calls time out as emphasis shifts to the physical education department. Innovation, time and equipment team together to offer students that field of P.E. most appealing to them. Girls may take rhythm, tennis or swimming instead of general P.E. and boys can sign up for individual sports such as football and basket- ball. In addition, the required one and one half cred- its open opportunities for those less active to experi- ment with gym equipment, volleyball, and other rela- ted sports. This class gathered new life with co-ed P.E. Top: ROBIN HOOD? No, Donald Pacheco makes a careful shot in co-ed , P.E. Middle: THESE ARE NOT THE STEEL- ERS!
