The accelerated chemistry course did more experimentation on a college laboratory level. New equipment consisted ofa pH meter for measuring acidity, and radioactive equipment including a scaler- active rate meter. The total cost was approximately I,O0O dollars. The funds were supplied by the Atomic Energy Commission in Wash- ington, D.C. where Mr. Macomber, one of our chemistry teachers, studied during the summer of I959. ath-Science Department ln keeping with all other departmental additions and im- provements, the Math-Science Department supplemented their program with five new teachers and a further advanced study in Science and Math. New equipment was added in all the science areas as well as in mathematics. Some of this equipment was obtained in part from Federal Funds avail- able under the National Defense Act. A new transpaque proiector was brought into use in order to help in the devel- opment of Math. The Math-Science Department participated in the Inland Science Fair. Pacific has had sweepstakes winners go on to the National Science Fair for the last three years. Through the Math Club, the department sponsored the Math Marathon in the spring in which the junior highs of San Bernardino send participants for the field day. They also sponsored the Science and Engineering Club. The Bausch and Lomb Science Award was presented to the outstanding science student each year at the awards assemblies. -f 3 U' ITA? Ii ii .

Ken Jacobs is seen using one of the new seventy-five dollar microscopes. This microscope is capable of magnifying a specimen 440 times. ? V it ,.

Several of our teachers had the opportunity to attend college during the summer of 1959 on a scholarship. The Shell Merit Fellowship granted to me in the spring of i959 proved to be advanced educational training in Calculus and Atomic Physics, besides giving me the opportunity to listen to and to talk with many research scientists in the Palo Alto area which has done much to improve my teaching this year. Mr. Lundy The National Science Foundation Institute program allowed me to take regular graduate courses leading to the Masters Degree, and also allowed me to attend special lectures by national leaders in Mathe' matics and Science. Mr. Green The Atomic Energy Commission Summer Institute was very informa- tive on the subiect of radio activity, atomic fall-out, and other such prob- lems of the atomic age. Mr. Macomber I enioyed the opportunity to work in a real research laboratory. The trip on SC's Valero IV to collect specimens from the Catalina Channel was also very interesting. Mrs. Gresham .i if Judy Akam, Dick Pennoni, Howard Killion and Margaret Murad of a regular physics class are shown demonstrating a transmitter. A few years ago the physics program was completely re- arranged and stepped up to qualify for National Defense money. The students enrolled in a physics class have a high aptitude in the field of mathematics. Most students have an IQ of I 20 or higher as based on a group test.
