Biology Science Club SCIENCE IN THE SIXTIES New and interesting courses are being offered in the fields of biology, chemistry, and physics. For example, a new biology course, placing emphasis on inquiry, is being offered to senior biology classes this year. This course, called BSCS, is based on the cell theory. Of course, we don’t remember the “ 1930’s,” but our current advanced chemistry course is equivalent to graduate work in chemistry in “the 30’s.” This year the PSSC physics course is attempting to capture the imagination and attention of potential astronauts, astronettes, nuclear physicists, and the like, by stressing the unity of time, space, and matter. With such important work going on in physics classes, the first man (or woman) on the moon may well be a Woburn High graduate! 17 According to my calculations, it would be cheaper to BUY the perfume.

Robert E. Charron Massachusetts College of Art B.S. Art Art Guild Frank J. Newark Boston University B.F.A. Art Art Guild CRAFTS, COPPER, AND KILN What’s the fastest-growing department at Woburn High School this year? Why, the Art Department, according to Mr. Frank Newark. Proof of this statement may be offered by these facts: the size of the staff has doubled, the size of the room has doubled, and the emphasis is now being placed on crafts, such as the making of copper enamel. Copper enamel, made with the use of a kiln, is now used to fashion pendants, earrings, bracelets, and even tie clips. Indeed, we seriously suggest that any student, male or female, wishing to increase his or her jewelry collection, make arrangements to take a course in art immediately. For those who can remember when the art course utilized little more than drawing paper and a box of crayons, this is certainly a great change! Edson L. Kimball Boston University Music Appreciation Band-Orchestra Senior Play Frank A. Modica Syracuse University B.A., Ed.M. Music (Vocal) Glee Club-Chorus THIS is a rooster?? MUSIC, ANYONE? Presenting Mr. Edson Kimball, the versatile head of Woburn High School’s ever-growing Music Department. This year Mr. Frank A. Modica is his capable assistant. Of special interest to Mr. Kimball and the school is the Annual Concert, produced by the music departments and students of both Andover and Woburn High Schools. This year the musical per¬ formance is in conjunction with the dedication of the new addition. In one of the new buildings, within the soundproof walls of the practice rooms, the band, orchestra, and glee club can now practice “Black and Orange” each Monday morning without distracting any students from their would-be “purposeful” study. Mr. Kimball directs a practice session. 16

Sight-seeing in Madrid? “Never!” you say. “Why not?” says technology whose progressive strides in transportation and com¬ munication have already “narrowed the world into a neighborhood” and lent a cosmopolitan aspect to our daily lives. Therefore, the study of foreign languages has come to play an integral role in educational systems throughout the country. Woburn High is following this tread. The Foreign Language Department has not only a language laboratory but also includes both Russian and German in its curriculum. Linguistic skill, merely an asset today, will certainly become a necessity tomorrow, when the Atlantic has dwindled to a backyard fence. How else will you ever get to know “the neighbors?” Bernard Rosmarin Suffolk University A.B. Spanish 1-2 Spanish Club Martha B. Thompson Boston University B.S. French 1 German 1 German Club 18
