NEW QUARTERS AID SCIENTISTS Many enjoyable, profitable. and exciting hours have been spent in science and agri- culture classes. The physics department under the supervision of Mr. Ross has been most fortunate in securing the new, ade- quately equipped physics laboratory. Biol- ogy was very popular with the sophomores who enjoyed constructing aquariums, pre- paring collections of specimens, and study- ing birds. This year a full time agriculture course was added to the curriculum With Mr. Pershing the instructor. Future carp- enters and cabinet makers tested their man- ual skill in sawing wood and driving nails in the up-to-date shop. When Mr. Persh- ing, a member of the State Legislature, had to be in Harrisburg from January until May, Mr. Godshall, a Penn State student, ably taught agriculture and a freshman general science class. Page Thirteen . . Research Workers . . ,W ,e,, Q, , Mr. Pershing explains some of his plans for the workshop to Mr. Ross and Mr. Godshall. Physics students work diligently in the new laboratory.
