-- Math and science surely rate an important place in the rapidly advancing World. To keep up with the expansion the math and science departments continue to offer the most modern approaches to the subjects. The biology classes this year began using a course of study drawn up by the Biological Sciences Study Committee. The basis of this is the emphasis upon understanding 'of the basic principles and ideas rather than mere memoriza- tion of facts. In chemistry lab, the students learned to use smaller quantities of substances. Freshman science continued giving an all-over approach to all sciences, while physics was taught by the same modern methods that have been used. In the math department, the UICSM Went into its third year. Next year, those students who complete all four years will have an excel- lent background for college math.

An early morning Spanish class is awakened by Mr. Jensen's curt command. The Sounds Of Many Lands Echo From The Language Deparfmenf. Our foreign language department offers courses in French, Spanish, and Latin. To further the study of these languages our high school has a Well- equipped language lab, consisting of tapes, separate booths, earphones, and microphones. In the first year the fundamentals are taught while in the second, a deeper more concentrated study is at- tempted including learning extensive verb tenses and reading a book.
