Freshmen, required by the state to take math, had two electives this year— algebra and general mathematics. Be¬ cause it was the largest algebra class ever to enroll at Central, it had to be divided. Leroy Cable and Miss Lucille Beavers headed the two divisions. Sophomores got their first taste of angles and proofs under Miss Beavers in geometry class. Math majors in the junior and senior classes enrolled in trigonometry, a subject dealing almost entirely with triangles and required in college for math majors. This class came also under the direction of Miss Beavers. Our Interests Grow As We Joy Yoder and Miss Beavers agree that Reggie Welch’s answer for number two is 4a-4b. Proving theorems is a chore as Jim Brown, Norman Hart, Doveanna Nussbaum, and Carolyn Myers have learned in geometry class. jlDave Isch and Max Egley show Steve Brandenburg how basic trigonometric functions are developed. 12

By Learning to Work with a In Central’s vocational c lasses we learn methods in homemaking, farming, woodworking, and elec¬ tricity. We arranged flower bouquets and conducted a dating survey in the high school for two of the projects of the senior girls. Some of the other classes used sewing, cooking, and room arrangements as their projects. Central’s agriculture classes show that the work of the farmer is unlimited. Studying soils and soil fertilization and crop and livestock management are a few of the chores. The new farm shop keeps everyone busy. Senior shop boys enjoy music through their crystal sets while working on their drawings and other electricity projects. Shellac¬ ing and welding are other tasks for the shop classes. In their industrial arts class eleventh grade boys, Larry Wittwer, Larry Habegger, Terry Witter, and Joe Sprunger learn the precautions of welding by doing.
