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!

Paschalites learn about the mechanics of the plane and the techniques of flying. Under the careful guidance of Coach john Harville, students take first steps in becoming our pilots of tomorrow. A more popular and common class though is drive'r's education. Students must participate in three differ- ent phases of the course. In the classroom, students learn basic driving skills which they later apply both in the simulator and behind the wheel driving. After having completed these three steps, the student is eligible to receive the coveted drivers license. :yi'Efi:fL l ., I . .s I A 859 ' Top Left: WHEN l GROW UP I WANT TO BE IUST LIKE CHARLETON HESTON . . . joel Simmons and a few of his classmates in aviation.
