Our World — Past and Present Like any other subject, history can be boring at times, but the teachers this year succeeded in not only teaching their subject but also in making the classes fun and inter- esting too. The Social Studies department headed by Mr. Francis Ray, offered U.S. H istory, World History, World Geography, Government and Eco- nomics to students this year. Mr. Ray, Mr. Tone, Mr. Bart, Mr. Herber and Mr. Koester, assisted by a number of student teachers, showed us the past and explained its effect upon the present. With such aids as films, filmstrips, slides and a Bufford Pusser Stick or a Viking axe the teachers found it easy to get their point across. Did Tom Christman make it safely into Mr. Herber ' s room after the bell rang? Mr. Koester shows Joe Schomburg the way to correct his posture. Don ' t fire till you see the whites of their eyes! Mr. Tone shows his U.S. History class how it ' s done. ACADEMICS 25

Science ... A Discovery of Our World The Earth Science class observes as Mrs. Keuneke adds the finishing touch to an experiment. The Science Department offered a variety of courses for interested students. Anatomy and Physiology and Biology were choices for those interested in the life sciences. Other science courses available this year were Physics of Chemistry for the upperclassmen and Earth Science or Physical Science for all grades. Terry Houlihan proves that being in one of Mr. Crall ' s classes is a hair- raising experience. ' 26 ACADEMICS
