Freshmen gained much knowledge from experiments performed in general Students learned scientific methods and Neither fear of explosions in Mr. Shell's chemistry class, nor squeamishness about direc- tions in Mr. Hoover's biology class deterred the inquiring minds. General science students prepared Science Fair exhibits under Mr. Fiel's guidance, and applied science was taught in Mr. Hampton's exploratory and review courses for seventh graders and seniors. Another Salk, Curie, or Carver may have started in these laboratories. Jerry William» solves one of the many problems foced by the students in physics class. Doc Shell helps lee Hoover and Janet Harrison with an experiment in chemistry. Mr. F. S. Hoover Mr. Neil F. Shell 26

Calisthenics were on the daily agenda for the boys in gym. Students kept physically fit Through a study of health and physical education, students learned to care for their bodies properly. This not only helped them for the present, but it also started habits and skills which will become a part of their life. Students selected by the gym teachers assisted in the gym classes as senior leaders. Mrs. Patricia Shanklin Mr. Tom Fitzgerald Mrs. Constance Dunford Mr. C. J. Olander Senior leaders were Phyllis Hoover, Judy Waitley, Bob Johnson, Susan Haas, Betty Jones, Dennis Vest, Gwen Mitchell, Mike DcSeure, Mary Hansen, Don Kerns, and Barbara Stutoville. 25

Mr. Bill Favrow used mathematical reasoning Demonstrating to other pupils how to work o problem is one of the many assignments in geometry. Mr. Gene Clohecy From simple addition to advanced algebra, students studied the mathematics consistent with their chosen program of studies. Mr. Bailey, Mr. Green, and Mr. Favrow started them out on the new math while Mr. Kukuk steered them through beginning al- gebra. Mr. Clohecy taught the theorems of geometry, and Mr. Shell groomed the advanced students for calculus and the appli- cation of higher mathematics to other scientific problems. Mr. Loren Green Kenneth Metz tries his skill ot using a slide rule while Tom Banion kibitzes and Mr. Shell supervises.
