' . 5 .-1 Radio Station S.S.S.- The Voice of Ed2lClLtl0'll.7' Owned and Operated by Srzntcms Junior High School, Inu. Radio Super Station S.S.S. Boys' Physical Education Department This is Radio Station S.S.S. of Sentous Junior High School, broad- casting the Daily Doings of Boys' Sports. This program is brought to you through the courtesy of Mr. Eichbauer and Mr. Sharpe. The boys of Sentous have had a great deal of mat and track work this semester. Mr. Eichbauer has fixed up a small track field in the boys' yard for our track meets, instead-of using the street as before. The gym has everything you could wish for, and it is enjoyed by every boy in Sentous. The boys want to keep their gym shining, for they take great pains when working on the apparatus, and are as careful as possible. Just a little about the noon and after-school games. At noon there is always something doing, either two home rooms are fighting it out or two league teams are battling for points. After school you can see a good exciting game of basketball in the boys' gym. If you want to play some game yourself you can always sign up for one article for which you are responsible. 1 Well, Sentousites, that ends our little program for this term, and I hope that by next semester you will tune in on Radio Station S.S.S. of Sentous Junior High School. Good-bye to all the A9's. This is the Department of Physical Education, Carl West an- nouncing. I There is no substitute for Physical Education.
