Dy QQQHTT so 1 Vi xjxfg ---.-..,-, Fitness . . by Maria Snell it is hard to say how and when the physical fitness craze began, but it was quite some time ago. A partial contribution has been the alarming number of people affect- ed by smoking, overeating, and ill- ness. Doctors urged people to im- prove both their physical and men- tal health by exercising: Thus the craze blossomed nationwide. Not only did this affect a persons health, but it also affected his at- tire. Sweatsuits were no longer for high school and college athletes. Grandmas and grandpas now en- joy the comfort of sweats and run- ning shoes. Jogging, walking, and exercising are not a passing whim in America: in fact, they are an important part of the United States' future. This craze is unique from most otherffads in The aspect that it has tasted so long. Another major point is the positiveness it has brought out in people. . . .
