curriculum through vigorous sports, students build firm bodies As school opened, sophomores enrolled in a final year of physical education. Juniors and seniors continued in their physical fitness as gym assistants. For girls the fall and Winter program consisted of basketball, tumbling, volleyball, modern dancing, and stunts on the trampoline and balance beam. In the spring they played tennis and softball and ran track. Basketball, football, crab soccer, and volleyball com- posed the boys' winter and fall program. As the weather warmed up, the boys moved outside and concentrated on baseball, track, and golf. Skills provided by these sports offered students a bet- ter outlook toward indoor and outdoor activities. At the same time, students acquired an appreciation for sports- manship and good physical condition. Inside the gym during the winter months, boys compete for possession of the ball in a game of crab soccer. Before dividing into teams for a game of volleyball, Mrs. Kennedy's sixth period physical education students limber up with the jumping-jack-with- a-kick, push-ups, squat thrusts, and various other exercises. Girls relax and enjoy conversation with friends before lining up in squads for roll call and exercises.
