X ffl NNI , Biology students agree that the model heart Mr. Goins is discussing looks a great deal more complex than the Val- entine type. 'k 'A' 'k Donna and Robert have found some- thing amusing inside their fish. 'kit One member of the class seems to have come upon a problem in his dissecting process. 1 e,...,....Q...,,..... c , Biological cience The world around us is infinitely more fascinating than we have ever guessed, The miracle of a raindrop and the beautiful sym' metry of a butterfly's wings are displayed before our wondering eyes in the study of Biology. We become better acquainted with the study of nature by making collections of insects and wild flowers. We are aided in learning about the in- tricate parts of the human body by plaster- of-paris models and lifesize diagrams and drawings. Each day brings new discoveries and inter- ests to the classroom. Lively discussions and debates on every imaginable phase ot life can be found in Biology class. Mr. Robert Goins helps us in discovering these wonders of nature.

Mathematics Stimulating our mental abilities as well as our interest are the various mathematical courses offered in our high school. Angles, polygons and circles dance in our heads as Mrs. Nina Brum- field, Mr. D. T. Goodin, and Mrs. Estaline Waters familiarize us with the principles of Plane Geom- etry. Mrs. Brumfield also teaches Solid Geometry, Trigonometry and Algebra, which are the more advanced mathematical courses. For those with a commercial future in mind Business Mathematics is taught by Mrs. Francis Jacobson. An open house for the parents each s'pring brings exclamations of wonder at the mosaic- like windows and electrically lighted chandeliers constructed from brilliantly colored cellophane and cardboard. With a great splurge of energy and hard work, students transform room 201 from an ordinary classroom into a delightful display showing the unique application of the principles of lines, angles and forms. The mathematics fair, in its eleventh consecutive year, has gained national recognition for its extraordinary con- structions and designs. The entire student body and community take deep pride in Mrs. Nina Brumfield's unusual ex- hibition of geometrical creations. Charles seems to be holding every one's attention except Mrs. Waters'. 'kit Really, Mr. Goodin, Lynn and Glen- da's problem can't be that amusing. 'k i' i' 1 Can it be that Derril is so engrossed in his math that he failed to hear Guy T.'s latest remark?

Ph sical Science Initiation into laboratory work begins the day we strike a match to a Bunsen Burner. From basic formulae to the atomic theory, we investigate the realms of Chemistry. Mr. Goodin also has 35 boys in a physics class. Study of man's first invention of the wheel to present day theories of flying saucers is fascinating and up-to-date. As spring rolls around, we complete our exhibitions and enter the annual science fair-the big event of the year. .
