Both Miss Herbig and Mr.. Re-

fence directing High School ath-

work with the physical education
training. They will give time al
ter school to work with the basket
ball and other teams and we have
high hopes for the results. We
expect to have intra- mural games
for the High School and Grade

The Grades, from the sixth up,
will have their own athletic in
structors and teams, Mr.. Raven
said. Miss Kathyrine Long Will
have charge of the girls athletics
in the grades and James Pelley is
directing the boys athletics for
the elementary school. I'm that
way they will have more individ-
ual attention and better organiza-
ton than when the High School
athleti directors had the grade
school classes as we'll" he declared.
Tumbling, Rifle Club

shown by the physical education

Raven declared.
