Figure 1.--This school had an extensive outside play ground for the children with the childen enjoyed for moning break. The school, however, had a very small indoor gym. As urban sprawl surrounded the school and land increased in value, expanding the school was no longer possible. .

Avery important facility for the prep-school age children, especially the boys is a hard surface area where they can play and bat balls around without fear of breaking a window or getting dirty. Almost all the schools had such play areas. It is commonly the location of frenzied activity during the norning break. The children tend to take the play area for grannted. We do not notice them commenting on the facility to any extent in their written pices are when we spoke with them. They seem much more interested in the activities taking place.
