Many a school boy’s knitted brow is only a ruse to conceal his thoughts. di jtitTt-irfi s pT(ipositioni»t his meditations may be on his b»»e ball heroes and their chances fo$ victory. And why not? ® Play games, and athletics are a recognized part of the school’s physical education program. These activities offer, without doubt, one of the best opportunities for the de velopment of good conduct and healthful habits. Are their possi bilities realized? The teacher-coach should, by ex- and attitude, inculcate the ideals of fair play. Pupils should learn to despise every thing tricky or mean, to abide by the rules and the spirit of the game, to strive to win by their own superior athletic prowess, and to recognize it appropriately in others. They should learn to be sportsman like.” This implies, when winners, the lack of undue boasting; and, when losers, the first in congratulat ing their successful opponents. Well-planned athletics contribute immeasurably to physical fitness, happiness, honesty, cooperation, con sideration for others, sense of fair play, and character. 5ach and all of these are worthy goals. Should this highly deslrabl# type of education be confined to the few already physically fit? Undue concentration on “the team may well be supplanted by interest ing the pupils in the organization and development of a number of play groups and teams within the school. Inter-class games and con tests between the school’s teams are highly desirable and to be preferred to inter-school contests if both can not be provided. Well-directed participation by the many is essen tial to the greater good to the great er number.
