Physical Education Shall we dance or play badmin- ton? Gym is the one class during the day where a student can really let off steam. The class also helps to develop a sense of Team work and an attitude toward good sportsmanship. The boys have gym two days a week and participate in many dif- ferent types of sports. ln the fall they play touch football, run track and play some soccer. Inside they engage in such sports as basketball, volley- ball, and tumbling. The coming of spring brings the familar sight of them playing softball. Water polo is a favorite of boy's swimming classes when they dive into the pool three days a week. Relays and dodgeball are also on their list of most popular games. In the fall the girls also take advantage of the good weather and hold their classes outdoors. They enioy such sports as soccer, tennis, and golf. Indoors they participate in volleyball, badminton, basketball, and table tennis. The girls have a less rigorous program than the boys when it comes to water sports.
