Fitness Class

The War-Defense committee of
the M.S.C. is sponsoring a calisthen-
ics class which will start next Mon-
day and continue aout weeks until
May 3.

The class will meet in Robinson
gymnasium until the weather is
warmer and then will meet outside
on one of the playing fields.

The class will be instructed by
Dr. Forrest C. Allen and his staff.
Doctor Allen says, “I think this is
a great thing. We will work them
hard, but everyone will have fun
while working.”

Enrollment started yesterday and
will continue until Friday. Those
who wish to enroll may do so by
contacting the Ku Ku’s, Jay Janes,

the registrar’s office or the athletic}

office.

Classes will meet twice a week at
4:30 to 5:30 p.m. every Monday and
Wednesday. More than 30 campus
leaders, including members of the
Men’s Student Council and the
W.S.G.A. Council and house presi-
dents have enrolled in the class. The
class will be strictly calisthenic.

Orville Wright, chairman of the
War-Defense committee of the
M.S.C. says, “this is, in a sense, an
experiment to determine whether or
not the midwestern college student
is concerned enough with this war
to discipline himself. It is undoubt-
edly true that unless this class suc-
ceeds, compulsory physical training
will be inducted on this campus.
Demands are now being made for
that compulsory training in influ-
ential circles. The students by en-
rolling in this course can make it
successful.”

Towel fee will be the regular sev-
enty-five cents which entitles the
student to 18 towels. The class will
meet 17 times in the eight week’s
period. The student is expected to
furnish his own gym equipment.
