The idea of really going to class and exerting yourself to the point of exhaustion doesn't appeal to many people at 8:00 in the morning. This prospect made the P.E. alternatives very appealing to most, who found they were required to have a semester of physical education. Students found a growing number of choices available, some of which even sounded a bit exciting. The more agile and flexible welcomed gymnastics as their source of exercise. Tennis was one of the more popular substitutes, and tennis classes could often be found on frosty mornings chasing that eversliding Wilson ball across the court. Relative newcomers to the P.E. scene were weightlifting and bowling. Many guys and even a few girls trying to improve their physiques chose to pump iron instead of play kickhall. Bowling, which was new to Richland, offered a more relaxing and less strenuous sport. Here students met at Richland Bowl in the mornings to concentrate their efforts on knocking down the pins that stood defyingly still on the far end ofthe lane. Though each course differed in the amount of skill required to accomplish its goal, all courses were an outlet for the stored energy that accumulates from day to day. julie Richards Boys often engaged in one on one games of basketball.
