SCIENCE -A MUST IN MODERN WORLD “Mostly a lot of dishwashing is how chemistry and domestic science were characterized a generation ago by die-hard academists, who were opposed to including the sciences in a college preparatory course. ELLSWORTH, AGNES B.S., M.S., N.T.S.C. Biology, Chemistry. FORESTER, HERSCHEL B.A., Mercer University; M.S., East Texas State College. Physics. How erroneous and nearly disastrous this attitude has been for America has been dramatized by recent triumphs of Soviet Russia in her firsts in space travel and her tremendous technical advances. These triumphs of a foreign power have served to spur America forward in the study of mathematics and sciences. Woodrow Wilson is doing her part in requiring two years of math and one of science for graduation. Not least in importance are the homemaking courses which help keep solid the basic unit of society—the home. GOLDEN, LEVERETT B.S., Southeastern State College. Mathematics, Chemistry. Physics. Deep in calculations of finding the coefficient of friction of a box on an inclined plane arc Dan Boettcher, Roger Bass, Rex Pryce-Jones, and David Ballard under the able and experienced direction of Herschcl Forester. Busily helping Joan Starling Oxford try on the near-finished product is Pat Dearing. Making a granny gown similar to the one shown is Nancy Fleming. HOUTCHENS, L. W. B.A., M.A., Toxas Christian University. Chemistry. KITCHEN, HOWARD R. B.S., Cotner College; M.S., East Texas State College. Biology. McBRAYER, T. E. B.S. and M.S., Baylor University. Coach, Football and Basketball, Biology. MEADOR, ELLEN Ph.B., University of Chicago. Home Economics. STOVALL, SARAH I. M.A., B.S., T.S.C.W. Homemaking. WHITE, J. B.

Mathematics, Visual Education, Vocational Guidance, Guidance Testing, Senior Publication Sponsor, Projection Club Sponsor. FULTON, E. M. M.A., Southern Methodist University. Business Arithmetic. Being introduced in Algebra I to a mass of exponents and equations is just the beginning of a wonderful knowledge of math. Woodrow has many conscientious math teachers who strive to teach the future engineers and businessmen all they need to know. Solving a math problem not only gives one the satisfaction of knowing it can be done, but it also aids one in solving everyday problems. High school math lays a foundation for a more complete education. MATH IS IMPORTANT IN ALL VOCATIONS GREENE, PAUL F. A.8., M.Ed., Oklahoma University. Mathematics. Plotting graphs by use of trigonometry can be a difficult task. But Jack Schwade, lewis Mondy, and Connie Stearns, with a little help from instructor Irvin Hill, evidently know what they're doing. HIGHTOWER, B. M. B.S., M.E., East Texas State Teachers College, Texas Christian University. Physical Education, Tennis. Mrs. Wilhelmma Blevins' geometry class learns how to measure distance without swimming with measuring rod in mouth.

WOODROW BOASTS EXCELLENT SOCIAL STUDIES PROGRAM In the by-gone days of elementary school, Social Studies was merely a required subject of study. In high school it has dawned on the pupil that this field of study includes all subjttcts relating to the development and conduct of human society: history, civics, economics, law. Woodrow Wilson has outstanding teachers in all these areas, and their pupils have often distinguished themselves in the field of human relations. FIELDS, CHARLIE, JR.
