111 Physical Ed Boys
End Varied Course
One hundred and eleven boys
have participated in the Physical
Education program, which began
in February under the supervision
of Coach R. N. Jeffrey. This course,
which was required of all senior
boys and all boys over 17 by the
State Department of Education, was
designed to meet the national
emergency.
The boys have been divided into
three classes, which have met the
first three periods in the morning.
During the winter months the
boys played soccer and practised
calesthenics, but for several weeks
they have played baseball and
have had track meets. Each class
is composed of squads which play
among themselves to determine the
period champions. Once a week
each class takes a five-mile hike,
running half the way.
On days when the weather has
not permitted the boys to go out,
they have met in the cafeteria and
studied first aid and the care of
the body.
Each boy has had a complete
physical examination, given by the
Goldsboro Draft Board doctors.
