survey revealed that groups I and II rated equally high in offering health
education as a separate subject, while group III fell below their rat-
ing.
Considering the average of each group regarding time allotment to
health education, group II ranked first, group 1, second, and group III,
third. It was of interest to note, however, that even though group II
rated highest in the average it was only within this group that time
allotment to health education in the boys' program fell below the stand-
ard.
The next point for consideration was that of personnel. The first
comparison was one of unusual interest. Facts disclosed all instructors
of groups I and II holding at least a bachelors' degree, while only 92.5%
of those of group III held suoh a degree. In close relation to this
point, Table I shows that the number of instructors majoring in physical
education was lowest in group III and highest in group I. However, when
a minor in physical education was considered along with a major, group II
was raised to first please, the affiliated group was second and the third
group'a percentage ranked much lower than that of either of the other
two groups.
In regard to the number of men instructors in each department, group
III led the ratio with 2.5, group II followed with 1.6, and the affiliated
group had only 1.1. The ratio of the number of women instructors in each
department was more nearly equalized when these results were noted, group
I and III having 1.1 eah and group II having 1. Here it was readily ap-
prehended that more men instructors were provided for boys' physical ed-
uoation programs than were women for girls' programs.
