Salem, Ore. (U.PJ If your
youngsters should come home
from school one of these days
and start doing push-ups, curl
ups and a kneeling squat jump
in the middle of the living room
1 floor, don't be surprised when
he tells you it is part of his
homework.
Thanks to the 1943 legisla
ture, Oregon now has a new im
proved program of health and
physical education that is con'
sidered by state department of
education officials to be as im
portant as how to add two and
' two and how to spell Mississippi
And the kneeling squat Jump is
just a small part of their pro
gram. Required Work
All students from first graders
to high school seniors enrolled
in public schools are required to
take the health and physical
education instruction as part of
their regular school work. How
ever, the law does protect those
who are unable to comply fully
with the program for physical
or religious reasons.
I Harold A. Bishop, a discharg
ed World War II veteran, and
Miss Dorothea Moore, physical
education instructor at the Uni
versity of Oregon, are super
visors of the program. Bishop is

teaching teachers about the law
and explaining modernized tech
niques In physical education and
health. These classes for teach
ers, called workshops, will be
continued until Jan. 22.
All elementary school Instruc
tors are required to, attend the
workshop classes, but only high
school teachers connected with
physical education and health
work must be present.
Minor Handicaps
So far, educators say, only
two things have hampered the
, state-wide program. They arej
aacK oi gymnasiums ana ibck ot
qualified instructors. However,
both of these difficulties are
minor, they explain.
Among the mental studies arel

personal hygiene, nutrition,
structure and functions of the
human body, first aid, diseases,
community health and sanita
tion and physiology of exercise
The physical aspects of the
program include studies of the
basic skills and movements, in
cluding walking, running, jump
ing, climbing, throwing, catch
ing, striking, lifting, falling
rhythm and relaxation. Other
studies are in balance, strength,
agility, flexibility, endurance,
power and speed.

just hope Johnny of June will
get a good report card, and
blame your gray hairs on the
state legislators.

Woman Bilked Out
Of $650 by Couple
Who 'Found' Money
Akron, O. (U.R) There's one
woman in Akron who is $650
wiser even though she lost the
money.
Mrs. Marie Sommerville was
cashing a check in a downtown
bank when a woman near her
struck up a conversation. The
two walked out of the bank to
gether. Suddenly the stranger
pointed out a man who had just
picked up a purse from the side
walk. At first the man was going to
split the "find" with the two
women. He told them the purse
contained $3,000 and he would
split it with them if they could
show him they had some m-.mey.
Mrs. Sommerville hastened
back to the bank and withdrew
$600. To that she added the $50
she had with her and gave the
whole sum to the other two. She
saw neither $650 nor the woman
again.
