REPORT OF SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
Physical Education Program
Senior High School -- Boys
An integrated program of physical education that included calisthenics, group correctives, combative activities, and group games was carried on during the year.
The athletic program consisted of the following sports :
Varsity Football
Junior Varsity Football Varsity Basketball Junior Varsity Basketball Intramural Basketball
Hockey Indoor and Outdoor Track
Golf Varsity Baseball Varsity Tennis
This year the intramural basketball program was under my supervision. This activity was run for two weeks after the football season and was enjoyed by eighty- five boys. It is expected that this program will be continued at the end of the basketball season.
A varsity and junior varsity basketball schedule of fourteen games in competi- tion with Bay State League teams was completed in a successful manner. Three games were lost, two by one point and one by five points. Our record : eleven wins, three defeats in varsity competition.
Varsity hockey under the direction of Mr. Peter Amirault held practice sessions in the skating club and the Arena in Boston. Games were played with teams of the Bay State League. This year we have a new hockey coach, Mr. William Hagblom.
Indoor track was resumed under Mr. Stanley Fisher. The track schedule was as follows : Northeastern University meet, the State Meet Class D, Dual meet with Concord, and the Greater Boston Meet. It was in the Greater Boston meet that a Relay team consisting of boys under seventeen years of age and under five feet six inches tall was able to defeat all other teams in record time. All factors being considered, the indoor track team had a very successful season.
Mr. Clifford Wheeler, outdoor track coach, called for candidates early in April. Thirty-two boys reported. The schedule consisted of one invitation meet, five dual meets, one triangular meet, and the entire squad participating in the State Relays held in Belmont. The boys distinguished themselves in all of the above events.
The tennis team under the direction of Mr. Fisher matches with Dedham, Need- ham, and Wellesley. Two boys were entered in the State Tournament held in Winchester. One boy participated in quarter-finals. This was excellent showing in State competition.
The Varsity baseball team enjoyed a successful season, winning eleven of four- teen games played in league competition.
The Golf team under Mr. Everett Learnard competed as in the past in the Norfolk County High School Golf League. The teams in the league are as follows : Dedham, Needham, Walpole, North Quincy, and Quincy. All home matches were held at the Ponkapoag Golf Club.

TOWN OF NORWOOD
The first football meeting was held August twenty-fifth at the Senior High School. This meeting was attended by sixty-five boys. The first few days were devoted to organization, such as physical examinations, giving out equipment, and assigning lockers. Our first official practice took place on September first. Calis- thenics, warm up, and conditioning exercises were scheduled for about a week followed by body contact work and dummy scrimmages. The 1948 record was as follows :

Senior High School-Girls
This program under the supervision of Miss Erna Kiley included corrective exercises, apparatus, marching, dancing, hiking, games and posture work.
The after-school athletic program consists of Archery, Basketball and Tennis. About twenty-five girls reported for Archery this fall.
Basketball started the middle of November and sixty-five girls reported for practice. A schedule of six games are played with neighboring towns. The intra- mural program was carried out at the end of the basketball season.
Miss Ruth Johngren, tennis coach, received seventy girls for her first indoor practice session early in April. Instruction and practice were transferred on to the courts as soon as the weather permitted. Four matches were played, two at home and two away.
Junior High School-Girls
The physical education program for girls, under the direction of Miss Ellen Gifford, included apparatus, marching, corrective exercises, dancing, hiking, games and posture work.
An intensive after-school program is carried out, consisting of games such as tennis, tenniquoit, volley ball, softball, badminton, and basketball.
Junior High School-Boys
Under the supervision of Mr. John Dixon, the program at the Junior High School included calisthenics, gymnastics, marching, apparatus, health hints, group games, social dancing and a sports club.
233 1
REPORT OF SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
The Athletic program consists of the following: varsity basketball, varsity baseball, intramural basketball, and intramural baseball. A carefully planned sched- ule of twelve games is arranged for both basketball and baseball.
An excellent intramural program in basketball and baseball was carried out with over one hundred and fifty boys participating.
Elementary Schools
No formal program by a Physical Education instructor is carried on in the elementary schools. However, the classroom teacher practices daily health lessons and supervises a play program for these children.
Health and Hygiene Education
Health education classes are organized in the sophomore classes for boys and girls while classes in hygiene are given weekly to senior high school boys and girls.
The general objectives of the health program are :
to improve the general condition of the individual so that he may function normally, may avoid disease, and may fit himself for his life work;
to develop the functional power of each individual consonant with his needs and capacities ;
to develop in the pupils an interest in good body mechanics through self appraisal and group judgment, and
to present to the pupils health instruction material that is progressive, scientific, social and individualized.
Conclusion
I sincerely thank the Superintendent of Schools, School Committee faculty, and physical education department for their splendid co-operation and assistance this past year in aiding me to realize the aims and objectives of our physical education program.
