MAJORS, formerly the P. E. Council, carried out one of its numerous ac- tivities. This co-educational club is a member of the American Association of Health, Physical Ed- ucation, and Recreation. Under the guidance of Mrs. Merle Dulin, sponsor, the club held several traditional and some new projects and events. The High School Girls ' Play Day was held in the fall, but it was combined with the new Boys ' Play Day in the spring. Another yearly project is a series of girls and boys intramurals which includes five differ- ent tournaments for both groups held through- out the year. Showing good batting form is a P. E.
