Nuclear Reactions Interest Scientists THATS T00 MUCH! cxclaims Carol Laf- ferty as she helps Margaret Frueh and Leroy Smith weigh an ingredient for a physics experi- ment. MR. ROBERT SAWYER Junior High Science Physical Science Eighth Grade Sponsor B.S., NWMSC Maryville High School has keyed its science program to the atomic age. In keeping with increasing world in- terest in nuclear reactions, student scientists have strived to broaden their knowledge of the atom. Radiation fallout was of particular interest to stu- dents this year as they detected its increase by using new civil defense equipment. Further insight was gained when instructor George VVilliams shared information ob- tained in civil defense study in Detroit. Biology laboratory work was not confined to the school walls. Field trips added depth to basic units. MR. GEORGE DOVVELL . Junior High Science - Seventh Grade Sponsor ' -' A B.S. in Secondary Ed. , NWMSC -13.-

University of Missouri Administrators Guide R-II School administrators found them- selves in an atomic whirl of exacting, prob- lematic activities this year. Coordinating classes, challenging able students, ordering and checking supplies, and keeping the school program progress- ing academically were among the problems attacked and solved by Superintendent Elmer F. Klein and Principal C. A. Bristow. Despite problems, these leaders were ever conscious of student welfare. Fire drills were conducted regularly. Science students gained insight into civil defense practices. Summer work and Saturday duties filled the agendas of the supervisors as they devoted both early and late hours to the C. A.

Double grades on major papers, teacher team- work in planning, and dual advisers spurred stu- dents to new heights in research, improved writing, and creative activities. ln social science, science, in- dustrial arts, business education, agriculture, and home making, English became a meaningful tool of communication. Some English classes were divided according to achievement and ability. Others were heteroge- neous groups. MRS. T. H.
