We investigate a classical description of spinning particles as a dynamical system consisting of one displacement variable (the center-of-mass variable) and associated internal string variables which produce Fermi operators after the canonical quantization. The investigation is also made into the path integral expression to the propagator of such a spinning particle. We further discuss briefly the extension of the above dynamical system to the case of a bi-local spinning particle.
