Physics, chemistry, biology and general science are the physical science courses that Gordon offers. They acquaint the student with the world around him with an explanation of the phenomena he observes in everyday life. They are important courses because they are basic coursesg they treat subjects which must be understood before further study can take place. These basic physical science courses provide the vital stepping stone to later investigation of natural wonders in college. Each year offers another opportunity to learn more about the world around us. as . l fl! Fr.

Mechanical drawing is the visual representation of an existing object or of the instruction necessary to produce an object . Accuracy and neatness are stressed. In Woodworking, the student gains skill and accuracy with his hands. As the student progresses, and leaves his hand tools for machines, he discovers that machines are merely extensions of the hand and the same knowledge and skill is necessary to obtain a finished product. Metalworking involves the same problems as woodwork- ing, except that the machines are larger and more complex and the material the student works with is harder to fashion into a desired shape or size. Electronics provides the student with basic information about house wiring, power plants, generators, and radio. Experiments are performed to illustrate electrical phenomenon and knowledge is put to practical use in wiring projects and the repair of household appliances. Power Mechanics is the study of the ways in which power is used in traveling. The automobile is explained in detail and automotive as well as aeronautical engines are taken apart and reconstructed to give the student actual examples of the way power is harnessed. aft MR.
