den at Beckenham did this some lit
tie time ago, pushing out block Of
trick work and mortar weighing 40
pounds, though the mushrooms them
selves weighed less than three and

they are worth credit and should be
recognized as a part of the school cur
riculum, asserts Doctor Lull THE
benefits derived from these activities
may add much more to the develop
ment of boys and girls than their
classroom work.
With this principle in mind, Doctor
Lull has reorganized the course, of
study of the Roosevelt high school at
the normal to give regular credit on
all high school activities. Each &C
tlvity will be carefully supervised.
Every student will be required to take
some form of athletics, and one unit
Will be given for three years of work.
A maximum of four units will be
given on vocational music, including
orchestra, glee club and chorus. while
students who take music as part of
their work will be allowed a maximum
of three units. Similar credits will be
given on debate, oratory and dra-
mates.
Athletics are regarded peculiarly
as privileges of the pupil in which
teachers take little Interest," sort of
forbidden tho tolerated fruit" says
Doctor Lull. Delinquency in athletics
should be counted as great a failure
as delinquency in English. history,
