SCIENCE ELHSSIES One of the most popular departments in school is science. Under the direction of Mr. Wilbur Shortt, chemistry, physics, and biology are taught. The courses proved much more interesting this year due to the fact that the laboratory equipment has been fulfilled to a much greater extent. General science, a Freshman course, is taught by Mr. Shortt and Mr. Richardson. Page Sixty-six
