The Importance ' of universal physical training was. stressed by J. ' T. Longfellow, - superintendent of La Grunde public schools, in his first talk before a Lu Grande audience at th.e Men's Forjm vt ihe Methodist church, yesterday morning. Mr. Longfellow talked on the subject '.'The. High School Curri culum" und in the course or his address covered many points of interest. In speaking of uthlellcs. he said that the need for physical training for the masses was greut er today than ever before. He remarked that he was ve.-y much in favor of athletic sports but felt that these sports should come us .the result of physical training and not by devoting at tention to but a few utura for competitive guinea. .Mr. J-ongfellow brought o Jt the point (hut while many persons ure accusing the schools of muklng nthlctlcn a major iusue above stud ies that this condition really did not exist except In isolated in stances.

But 10 per cent of the high school students, on an uver uge attend college, thus the ten dency ut the present time is to provide a vocatlonul training Tor the 90 per' cent of the students (Continued on Pftffe Five.)
