Math Is an Indespensable Tool for Youth's Future Math is an indispensable tool in the fields of com- merce and business, Mathematics is also essential for research, development, and investigation in the scien- tific field. A common knowledge of math is needed by most people in everyday living and working. The various math courses offered at Catalina in- clude algebra, geometry, and general math. For the first time, four years of Illinois math was offered to CHS students. There were seven classes of freshmen taking the Illinois algebra program, and an advanced class of seniors were selected to take college algebra, trigonometry, analytical geometry, and integral calculus which was taught by Edward Maxwell. A total of over 1800 students were enrolled in math courses at Catalina this year.

This is the ultimate re- sult of the variety of basic skills offered by the department. Five semesters of P.E. and one of health education are the requirements for all students. By having a curriculum of different types of sports, teachers hope that each student will discover one which he will further develop. If so de- sired students may join various competitive teams. Good sportsmanship and physical fitness are ideals being stressed by the department with the idea of encouraging leader- ship for tomorrow. li Vi., , fa- 4-1 ,V -b 5 .. ,... - M. .,, . , 9 'zvv'-'C ' V ' , . ,' ' 4 -'1.s. 2 . . f ' H .Y-gy,-, vf- z.. .gf f- -, .A.- I A ..

Language Teachers Promote Universal Understanding Bonjour. Hola! Guten Tag. Language Education is steadily paving a way to under- standing in the World. Teachers at Catalina are promodng this universal understanding by teaching the basic five languages of the world today. French, German, Spanish, Latin and English make up those taught. Vocabulary, spelling, and grammar of the various languages are an important part of the language exchange. The purpose of taking a foreign language is to learn to speak with fluency, with the exception of Latin which is the basis upon which other languages are built, states de- partment head, Mrs. Uarda Phelan. English is required for four years. Realistically, learn- ing our own language is a good idea, for how can we ex- pect to converse with others if We don,t know our own? 'W-. i. , 'Wai 'gravy . .
