PHYSICAL EDUCATION Physical Education The purpose of the Physical Education Department is not only to develop a fit, healthy body, but also to encourage good sportsmanship, teamwork, and a love of competition. All three qualities extend out- side the gymnasium into the classroom and even into every day life. Good sportsmanship and teamwork promote harmony in relations with classmates, parents, fellow-workers. A love of competition leads to a desire for con- stant improvement in sports as well as in studies. 20
