Science is a stepping stone Above: Physics is the study of matter in motion.” This is one of the first principles learned by those science-minded seniors in the picture above. Such terms as specific gravity, buoyancy, parallelograms of force, and sound frequencies become a part of their daily school conversation. Learning to handle apparatus for enlightening experiments is accom- plished in the laboratory periods. Left: The physics club, appropriately called The Senior Physicists of Catholic High, has stimulated the students’ interests in this subject. Their program includes special demonstrations, lectures, and trips to scientific institutions. At left, the officers who direct the club’s activities arc Joan Szamski, Secretary; Helen Grogan, Treasurer; Regina Dcucrling, Presi- dent, and Angela Nadrowski, Vice President. 12

Right: What makes an acid burn? Why docs water evaporate? Students who are really curious about such matters find the answers in chemistry. Seniors who have taken the advantage of the one year of chemistry offered by Catholic High pursue their interests further by becoming members of the Catholic Chem Club. Every Wednesday they can be seen trudging the stairs to the laboratory on the third floor where they make explorations into the magical world of test tubes, Bunsen burners, beakers, and balance scales. Below: Many experiments have practical results, bringing forth such products as tooth paste, soap, hand lotion and cold cream. By their Open House Exhibit the seniors awakened their little sisters’ inter- est in this field of science. The activities of the club arc directed by (left to right) Doris Stolzc, Joan Unis, Margaret Gross, and Charlotte Danaher. on thv iray to qrrairr knoirlrdgr to Hod.
