The classes included algebra, plane geometry and trigonometiy. Eighth graders received their knowledge in arithmetic from Mr. Isaiah Owen. He also taught a class in general mathematics for freshmen, which included a review of the arithmetic for the preceeding year. The seventh grade classes were taught by Mrs. Blanche Zuercher. The course of study for this year was in solving story problems, working with fractions, and a brief preview of algebra.

W Science Promotes World Progress Wig.: 5 HILE Miss Ruth Bell's biology classes were busy dissecting earthworms and learning the bones of the body, her science classes spent their time studying the general science field. Mr. Maurice Fowler's physics class conducted experiments to find out how much energy is needed to run up a flight of stairs. His chemistry class became well aware of the hazards of that class after a few of them became ill when some gas they were working with got out of hand. Mr. Harry Shadle taught seventh and eighth graders science. ln this class they leamed about the scientific side of nature and life. One of their projects was to see how many types of leaves they could find and name. Maurice Fowler A . B.
