Girls al Anacostia
Given New Course in
Physical Education
Truining Designed to
Develop Coordination
Without Big Muscles

Putting teen-age girls 'oyer the
Jumps of a new obstacle course at
Anscostia High School, Mrs. Eva
Lynn Rollins, physical education
instructor, has introduced a novelty
In the gymnasium designed to stress
muscular coordination, without de-
veloping big muscles"
The innovation has met with ap-
proval Of Hardy L. Pearce, super
visor Of physical education in the
public schools, and is characterized
as progressive step in the ad-
vancement of physical training for
teen-age girls"
AS explained by Mrs. Rollins, the
race consists OF "a series Of con-
secutively encountered obstacles, in
Guiding two forward rolls on the
mat, climbing the stall bars, walking
the balance beam, climbing rope,
two hurdles followed by forward
rolls on the mat, springing over the
horse and under rope or a mat"
Planned to coordinate with the
hygiene course required for high
school students and to achieve GER
tain objectives in physical training
for girls, the activity stresses mus.
cular coordination.
Phases important to high school
girls are said to be the development
of agility, grace and rhythmic phys
teal timing, good posture, poise,
and body flexibility. The training
also strives toward speed in move
ment in coordination with the
physical capacities and skills of the
teen-age girls"
Although it is planned to develop
physical endurance, the obstacle
race is modified to achieve the de-
sired objectives and skills that can
be expected from we'll balanced
physical education training. And
1t is mot conducive to big muscles" !"
Mrs. Rollins. who is new to the
District school system this year,
received her B. S. degree at Okla
homa A. and NJ, and taught for
three years in Tulsa, Okla She re-
ceived her M. S. degree from the
University of Southern California.

Native Chief Flags Down Food
Until u. S.>FIyers Get Wise

and over went the rations Is before.
1t seems this American fare was
just to the liking of the chief Tor
every day for two weeks the Melane-
sian scampered to his boat and raft
everytime an. American bomber
went over. And, OF course, the pilots
dropped food to what they consid-
cred stranded fellow airmen.
Then the story came out.
Several months ago q couple OF
Navy pilots were forced down IN
the vicinity Of Rennell and made
the tiny island in their raft. The
chief found them and short time
later they were picked up BY
Navy boat. -
Almost tearfully the chief pleaded
with them to leave behind the life
raft and parachute when they went
away. They did. :,
And the chief put them TO good
use-for the chief.
But the Army is wise to him now.
The chief still comes out with his
parachute and raft when plane
goes over and probably wonders
why he has had to go back to the
coconut, banana and tanserlne trees
for his food.
