DANISH GYMNASTICS
i Os ISCUSSED AT MEET
Mlss Ruth Figge Explains Trend From
Stiff i1xercises Toward More
Recreatie Type
PREVALENT IN DENMARK
Miss Ruth Figge of the Physical
education department of the Univer-
sity of Michigan talked to the Michigan
State Teachers meeting held this past
week at Flint, Michigan, about Dan-
ish gymnastics, a new type of phys-
ical exercise which is being .intro-j
duced into our country and is meet-
ing with great success everywhere.
F The topic of her speech was "Funda-
mental Gymnastics," a type of Danish
gymnastics which she studied in Den -
mark this summer under Nells Bukle,,
famous physical educator of Denmark.
With the present movement away from
f the old stiff Swedish gymnastics, to-
ward something along amore recrea-
tive non-definite type 'of work, has
come within the last three yearska new
and entirely refreshing type of exer-
cise from Nells Bukle. -
Miss Figge discussed the general
type of exercises which are included
in fundamental gymnastics They area
characterised by their non-definiteness
and their free rhythmic character.
Ijythm and continuity of movement
carries the class rapidly from one ex-
ercise into the next with no cessation
--of action. The effect is to stretch the
tightened muscles and loosen up
,"tiff joints and at the same time to
develo 'pthe muscles which are lax.I
Through his double purpose of loos-I
ening up stiff parts and developing
these parts, there is a definite postuf-
al effect that seems to be what physi-
k a cal educators have been striving for.
Fundamental gymnastics is found
to be originally stimulating through
its continuous vigorous use of every
part of the body, one of the best means
of getting posture training indirectly
through united grout action and rec-
reative to a limitless extent. DifficultI
coordinations and jumping, steps mix-
ed up with difficult trunk movements
serve to increase the interest of they
L class.-
Miss Figge was one of a group of
233 physical education instructors of
the United States who studied under
Nells Bukle for six weeks this sum-
mer. She has been starting classes in
the Physical education department;this
fall and also is using it in her corec-
-tive classes.
Due to the interest shown at the
Flint-meetAng, Miss Figge plans to in-
k -vite the physical education instruc-
'torsall over the state to a week-end
' conference and demonstration to be
:held in the near future.

SAYS TOLEDO ALUMNAE
BACK LEAGUE ACTIVITIES
"Toledo women are behind the lea-j
gue and working as hard as they can,"
is the message of Miss Rose Anderson,
president of the Toledo alumnae group
and principal of the Smead School
for Girls. Miss Anderson is a mem-
ber of the board of directors of the
Alumnae council and a member of the
board of governesses of Alumni
house. She has been in Ann Arbor
recently to attend the meeting of the
meeting of the board of Alumni house.
"Toledo women feel as I feel," said
Miss Anderson, " .that the University
of Michigan Women's league building
is going to be the biggest and most
wonderful thing that has ever hap-
pened to Michigan women. It should
have happened years ago but now, as.
it is nearing the end of the drive for
funds, we are realizing more than
ever, the importance of such a build-
ing for the women. The social advan-
tages of a club, the cosiness of a home
will bring to the women a new inter-
est in their own affairs and a new un-
Iity."'
