Show PHYSICAL EDUCATION "Plans for the physical facilities of the Physical Education Division," reports Dr. Reed K. Swenson, chairman, "indicate the growth and service that may be expected in the future. "The new one and a quarter million dollar gymnasium will provide an indoor activity center for Weber College students in both the day and evening schools," says Dr. Swenson. "Lands also have been set aside in the proximity of this carefully planned structure for various athletic fields, including tennis courts and general play area and other physical development operations. "These have been so designed that they will serve first, the general activity needs of all students in class work, intramural sports and free play; and second, the athletic programs of major and minor sports. In addition, the professional training of physical education and recreation majors will be increased due to this new area." Dr. Swenson thinks the physical education aspect of college life is of growing significance. Reed K. Swenson Division Head No picture available Russell N. Hirst Marva H. Gregory William G. Mann Milton C. Mecham Wallace K. Nalder "The division has the responsibility of providing students with skills, attitudes and habits that insure their physical fitness and supply their recreational needs in everyday living," Dr. Swenson points out. "In the expanded program of a four-year college, the activities will have sufficient variety to give satisfaction to every person participating, sufficient scope to challenge him, and sufficient zest to foster his play spirit. "More important than this, the activities will have sufficient exercise to satisfy his health requirements, and finally, sufficient versatility to develop initiative, team play, will to win, and sportsmanship." And so here, it appears then, the endless line of Weber development will become in fact an endless benefit for the student, resulting in the spiritual and physical glow requisite for the realization of a full and personal life, and for zestful, useful citizenship.

Peterson Division Head TECHNICAL EDUCATION "During the years 1937 through 1959 the Technical Education Division participated in numerous programs concerning the development of the Weber College area," summarizes the division chairman, Lorenzo Peterson. "Hundreds of young people found opportunity to equip themselves for life through the training they received in this division. As usual, it will continue to be the aim of the division to offer the community services of the past," he adds. Richard S. Best Paul G. Butterfield Wendell L. Esplin David S. Gailey John A.
