TRACK, GOLF, TENNIS fcontinuedj Al. 128 -.. W . tl- Big changes took place this year in Southside's athletic and physical education departments. New classes and the additon of a girls' golf team were among these changes. Most golfers in the running for the golf team were part of the Indi- vidual Sports Program, a new physical education class offered at Southside this year. The course was comprised of senior, junior, and sophomore students of both sexes, and sub- divided into two sports-tennis and golf. During the early weeks of school students enrolled in the golf class viewed filmstrips and received lectures on golf from the instructor, Coach Norris Byers. After this in- struction students began with the basics-driving and putting. Begin- ning golfers improved mobility with daily running and practiced driving skills, while the more experienced golfers were allowed to leave Southside and go to Ben Geren Park and improve their skill. For the first time ever, golf meets were scheduled for a girls' golf team. The squad was composed of four girls and this group competed with area teams for the number one Talent abounds on the golf team as junior Trey Rogers ftop leftj and senior Chris Rogers fcenter leftj bring experience to the Southside greens.
