Iical education and related subjects
The study was touched of by Col
Birch Bayh, head of the depart
lment Of health, physical education
and safety, on his return to the
school system this fall after four
years In the Army. In co-opera-
tion with DR.. E. B. Henderson, who
holds the same position In the col
ored schools. he presented his ideas
to top ofiicialS.
AT the same time, Col. Bayh UNDER
took q revanping OF such elements
|of health and physical education as
were possible without formal ap-
proval by his superiors and the
Board OF Education. He appointed
nine committees from among his In
|str,lctors at meeting last Thursday
|at Powell Junior High School to
push the work.
High in priority among the prof.
ect the health instructors are work

Doubling Time Given
Physical Education in
D. c. Schools Studied

Studies looking toward expansion
OF the health and physical educa-
ton system In the District public
schools are under way at all grade
levels, it was learned today, with
special emphasis on the possibility
|of doubling the number Of periods
devoted to such subjects In the
junior high schools.
School superintendent Hobart M.
Corning has asked heads of the
various grade levels to submit recon-
Emendati0ns with the assurance that
q master committee will be formed
to examine the question when all
reports are In. Both white and
colored schools are involved.
1. J. Cantrell, associate superin-
tendent in charge Of the Junior
highs, expects q report soon from q
five-member committee OF principals
he appointed to examine the pos
sihility Of increasing health and
physical education periods from two
to four day. His attitude Is that
doubling the time Is good idea pro-
Vded 1t doesn't mean robbing the
rest Of the curriculum.
He has put It up to the commit
tee to decide whether courses now
studied can be changed or shifted
about safely so as to permit two
more hours Q day Of health, physi-
cal education and safety instruc-
ton. DR.. q. G. Wilkinson, associate
superintendent in charge Of the coll
ored junior highs, is working closely
with Mr.. Cantrell.
No radical change in the physi-
cal education setup in the senior
high schools is anticipated. With
five periods week already devoted
to this phase Of education, what
ever is done viii probably amount
to putting more or less emphasis on
existing courses, according to Nor
man j. Nelson, who superintends
this level In the white schools.
Much the same holds true for the
elementary schools. which now de-
vote one period q day to phys
