APPROPRIATION FOR EXPERIMENTAL SPORTS FITNESS SUMMER DAY SCHOOL (9) The Director of the School of Physical Education requests an appropriation of $4,200 for the Experimental Sports Fitness Summer Day School. This program has been conducted during the last three years from nonrecurring funds provided in the budget, but such funds are not available this year. T h e School provides instruction in aquatics, gymnastics, track and field sports, and outdoor games for boys of ages seven through fifteen. Through the testing program the School of Physical Education has been able to obtain research data which is not available elsewhere. A tuition fee of $50 a person will be charged. The estimated enrollment is eighty students, so that most of the expenditures will be recovered. I concur and recommend that an appropriation of $3,950 for salaries and $350 for expense and equipment, or a total of $4,200, be made to the School of Physical Education for this purpose. On motion of Mr. Herrick, this appropriation was made by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Bissell, Mr. Herrick, Mr. Hickman, Mrs. Holt, Mr. Johnston, Mr. Livingston, Mr. Megran, Mr. Nickell, Mrs. Watkins; no, none; absent, Mr. Grange, Mr. Stratton.
