C. Crippled Children.
This Section is confined to children (other than those diagnosed as tuberculous and in
need of treatment for that disease) who are suffering from a degree of crippling sufficiently
severe to interfere materially with a child's normal mode of life, i.e., children who generally
speaking are unable to take part, in any complete sense, in physical exercises or games or such
activities of the School curriculum as gardening or forms of handwork usually engaged in by
other children.
