SCIENCES Long assignment sheets, making oxygen and hydrogen in the lab, dissecting frogs and earth- worms--these are a few memories of science at L. H. S. Students have studied life and their sur- roundings in biology, the earth and its composition in chemistry, the fundamental physical laws of nature in physics, new developments in science in senior science, and the skills of homemaking. This knowledge is but a stepping stone, for there is no area of study so challenging or offering greater opportunity for the future. A 1 -v 3. , ' ' E.
