Carryover Sports Emphasized Physical education classes here emphasized not only mus- cular coordination and develop- ment, but also interest and knowledge of activities which can be carried into later life. Boys and girls shared activi- ties such as bowling, ice skating and golf and both engaged in other sports including softball, basketball, handball, tennis and archery. Veronica Dice taught girls classes and included teaching the girls how to invent their own games, complete with rules and regulations. Boys were instructed by Tom Breunich who was assisted during second semester by student teacher Todd Dulaney from Western State College in Gunnison. Sportsmanship was a side light which was emphasized through- out the instructional physical education program.
