This year a new three week course in Fundamentals oi movement was introduced by Miss Lemler and Miss Gannon to Freshman girls during 7th period. Main objectives of this course are: to learn. to move efficiently: to appreciate rhythm and movement: to learn to create dance movement: and to recognize dance as an art form. In 1964 this course will be re- quired oi all Freshman girls. New basketball rules for girls were taught this year in order to make the game more interesting and active. The form of basketball played by girls now more closely resembles boys' basketball. Three semesters of the two year physical education course are spent exercising and participating in group activities such as basketball. tennis, volleyball. and dancing. Units on personal health, community health, safety, first aid. and driver education are offered one semester ol the soph- omore year.

Industrial Arts Mechanical drawing, wood shop, photography, and metal shop comprise the industrial arts division at Roosevelt. The year a new first , an honor club, Metallicus, was formed. Mr. Hilke, the clubs' advisor, said that this club is the -only one of its kind in Port- land, bringing us recognition from other schools. Main func- tion oi the club was an open house in the metal shop. Through this activity many peo- yple became acquainted with the facilities and projects of the class. Interest was aroused this year by the group's mass production projects. Other pr-ojects of spec- ial interest were TV lamps, tool boxes, charcoal grills, hammers, cold chisels, and trivets. Ap- proximately 70 TV lamps were made in the shop this year. Evidence of the growing in- terest in metal work are plans now underway for a third year course. Curriculum will include the construction of wrought-iron furniture, go-carts, and items of a more technical nature. second period class THOMAS NELSON ROBERT WHITE n ROBERT HILKE RICHARD OSTERMAN Mechanxcal and Architectural Dr. Industrial Arts, Aud.

B.S., Elmhurst College AB., Willamette University VIRGINIA KEATS University of Omaha Biology, physical science, physics, and chemistry make up the science curriculum beyond the Freshman year. For the more advanced student who desires to explore the regions of science that lie beyond the scope of the regular study, there are educational enrichment studies. Such a course is advanced biology class under the direc- tion of Miss Keats. A college text is used for greater depth of understanding. Laboratory exercises are included in connection with text discussion. Evaluation is similar to college evaluation, using essay tests. The new biology course emphasizes the problem solving approach to learning. Requirements for the course are an A or B in first year biology and sincere interest in advanced study.
