The President's All American Team ' ' Probably every child at one time or another dreams of 'making the team.\ Unfortunately, fewer do with each passing year. In a typica~ modern hieh school with an enrollment of 2,000, approximately 30(} students_,..._ all of them boys - will he represenied on 10 or 12. varsity athletic teams. The rest - the girls, the boys who ·are too small, or those who have to work after school and can't practice- miss out on this experience. A little ove-r a · year ago President JohnsOn took steps to cor~ct this situa- tion by establishing the Presidential Phys- ical Fitness Awards program. The boys and girls who earn the award are referred to as members of \The President's All America Team.\ and 50,000 of them already hav~mad.e.it. •- .. -~~ . ..,~ \ . .. The wonderful thin~ about this team is that it's open to all students, ages 1~17.. It presently has more .girls than boys .Qnd more 13-year-olds than high school juniors or seniors. One little girl who made it has only one arrtl. All a student has to do to make The President's All Am~rica Team is demon- strate tb.at be's more physically fit than most members of what \has been called \the Marshmallow Generation.\ He com~etes agai~t the scores others his own age have made on the Youth Fitness Test,· which measures st.rength, speed, agility and flexibility. No special skills are re- quired. The colorful emblem the winners re- ceive certainly packs as much, prestige as any varsity letter, and the .Certificate of !Achievement, which bears the Presiden- tial seal and signature, is something any youngster would trEasure. Some schools b:aven't given their stu- dents an opportunity to make The Presi~ dent's All America Team because they feel the testing takes too :much time. The 50,000 winners to date represent only five percent of the nation's schools, and more than one-third ot them are from three States - Califorriia 1 Florida and Texas. : ·~tually. tegt .. ahoult1! beqrpar:t· of every school physical education program, even if there were no awards program.- It's the only way the teacher Cah -deter.. mine the needS-6'f\1he- physically underde- . vet oped, assess prngram. strengths anti wellfuesses or measure and mqtivate pu.Pil pro&.ress.

The \Hippi~\ have had a great ded of publicity in press· and: televisiOJi and might be ealleil a unique organ~ion. They have mostly pheted in Green- wich Village in lower New York City, in California iliui Florida. As cmnpared with other groups they are unique because most of them have high school di· plomas, many have. been to college and most come from well-to-do or wealthy homes. Social workers have been giving this group a lot of study and have ar- rived at a few basic ans- wers: (1) They have arrived at an age where they want complete freedom to do. as tbey pleas~ and greatly re- sent any family discipline. They want to look and act like tramps~ They want to smoke marijuana which they and some of their col- lege pro:feSSl>rs believe is harmless. They have gone B<:l fal' as to demand that Congress declare this drug as leglJl. Police and the me9-ical _fraternity agree that a moderate amount is oomplaralti~el~ hannl'ess but say that the habit al\ ways leads to stronger drugs such as cocaine and herain and then they are hook-ed for life.
