CTTWlZ Wage Grade School Athletics Topic For Talk Given by Director Lee Ragsdale, athletic director of the Medford schools, spoke on grade school athletics for mem bers of Lincoln Parent-Teacher association at a meeting held in the gymnasium January 10. He quoted Dr. Edgar Rector, pedia trician, in stating that it was not a question of whether or not grade school boys should com pete, because they were going to compete anyway; the question is under what conditions they will compete. Dr. Rector was one of the 16 persons who served on the state wide committee for the study of elementary school athletics. Mr. 'Ragsdale represented the Ore gon High School Coachs' asso ciation, and Dr. Rector the Ore gon Medical association. Mr. Ragsdale stated that the general plan in the Medford schools is to give all the boys who want a chance to compete in athletics without undue pres sure or undesirable influence be ing exerted on them. While every child is required to take physical education, the athletic program is purely volun tary, but at the grade school level is not too selective any one who wants may be included in the teams. Starting in the fall, a schedule of games is set up be tween the city schools for foot ball, which are played at senior high school on special fields marked off for the use of the grade schools. Two games are played simultaneously. He stated that approximately 174 turn out for football. Basketball schedules are also set up between the five city schools, with St. Mary's -school playing to fill in the schedule, but not competing for the league championship. Games are set up on a grade level with the sixth graders competing with sixth graders and fifth grade with fifth, he said, and games are rotated between schools. Mr. Ragsdale stated that approxi mately 130 to 150 turn out for basketball. Track and baseball comprise the last two athletic series of the year, both with a fairly short season. Boys in track are classi fied- according to age, height and weight, regardless of grade, the speaker said. Track meets are held at the high school field as the weather permits, records are kept, and trophies given. Base ball games are scheduled be tween the schools as infootball and basketball. Approximately 175 turn out for track and 150 for baseball. Well trained coaches and adult officials supervise all the games; the boys are also protected by their school insurance if they are injured in any of the games, Mr. Ragsdale stated. Schools also give letters for satisfactory participation in each of the var ious athletics.
