HEW Guidelines Push Equal Athletics Across Schools
HEW proposes rules to end sex discrimination in physical education. Girls teams may form or girls may try out for boys teams in non contact sports while regular classes should be sex integrated except for contact sports. Separate showers and locker rooms will be allowed. The guidelines aim to expand equal educational opportunities, foster understanding between genders, and keep athletics a positive, cooperative experience rather than a grim struggle.
