THE BATTALION
Adapted Physical Education
Helps Injured, Handicapped
Aggie Basketball Roster
Everyone at A&M is required
to take two years of physical
education. But what happens if
you are taking the required P.E.
and break a leg or sprain your
knee or if you come to A&M with
some physical limitation?
You won’t be left out; you will
be assigned to A&M’s adapted
program under Emil Mamaliga.
The program is designed to pro
vide the student with sufficient
information about his limitation
or injury to enable him to work
around it and to further enable
him to place it in its proper per
spective. In addition, the pro
gram is designed to arm the
student with a knowledge of how
to treat himself and properly
carry out a rehabilitation pro
gram.
At the present time over 120
Aggies are enrolled in the pro
gram. All have been certified by
the university hospital to be
eligible for the course. The stu
dent’s personal doctor, the uni
versity hospital and Mamaliga
work closely together to insure
the proper program for the indi
vidual. Each student is provided
with a program specifically de
signed to meet his individual
needs.
If practical, the program is de
signed to incorporate a minimal
number of machine exercises.
This is to facilitate a continuation
of the program in conditions
where the equipment may not be
available.
Mamaliga has, on occasion,
been called upon to provide in
struction for students not taking
physical education, and occasion
ally persons from local communi
ties are sent to him by their
family doctors.
Like any other P.E. course,
adapted classes meet twice a
week, but, as Mamaliga pointed
out, a great many of the adapted
students spend some of their off
hours working in this program.
At the end of each semester a
review of the adapted students is
made to determine if they are
prepared to enter any of the 17
other activities offered by the De
partment of Health and Physical
Education. If they are capable,
the students are returned to these
activities. If not, they remain in
the adapted program.
Adapted is not a “grade-point”
course. The students work hard
and, in most cases, make substan
tial advancement in understand
ing and combating their limita
tion.

I Was Too Secure _
To Need A Saviot^gl?/
An awful lot of people
are looking for an intan
gible thing called security.
Some look for it in stocks
and bonds, and some in
real estate, some in a
lovely home and a thriv
ing business. Some seek
the same things in friends
who will weather the storms
of adversity and some even
seek security in escapes
from reahty. I tried many
of these avenues but failed
to find one that really was
a thoroughfare to security.
True security is not found
in material things. Unless
the soul is secure, life and
possessions are built on
sand which can shift at
any time. The greatest
need in life is security of
the soul. How glad I am
that although I thought I
was secure in my posses
sions, my family, and my
home, I have learned to be
secure in Christ, the rock
of the soul. Since I have
come to know Christ as
my Savior from sin, my
soul is at peace with God.
In this I have the basic
security of life.
