Modern equip- ment and a friendly student-teacher relation make gym classes a Welcome hour. The program includes instruc- tion in conditioning exercises, in traditional sports, and in body fundamentals. While physical education em- phasizes versatility, it also develops poise and skill. Our teachers seek to build body stamina, teach basic funda- mentals of health, and give an opportunity to develop social graces. In the health classes the importance of personal hy- giene is stressed. Informal discussion is a valuable aspect of each class. Students discuss freely their problems and personal experiences with often enlightening results.

Class of '64 . . And the thoughts of youth are long, long thoughts. This is certainly true of every senior as he sits down to evaluate the preceding twelve years. His emotions are confused, he's happy, he's sad, he's somber he's glad. His memory is filling with such events as his first day of school, his first basketball game, his first date, his first formal. However the events most prevalent are those of his senior year. The class of '64 recognized the need for work as com- petition between classmates grew keener. Various tests, including the State Scholarship Exam and the Test Battery served as a preparation for future schooling or vocation. Suddenly came the realization that this was serious business. Preparing for the future became a reality, especially in the college preparatory classes. Too soon it was time for the year to end, but the year had not passed without many memorable events-choir con- cert, school play, gym exhibition, art festival, prom, sen- ior picnic, and senior banquet. The climax came on June 2nd with commencement and graduation. Now all is reflection and memory-thoughts of youth.
