DELVING INTO THE PROBLEMS Readily lendinlg itself to the Hoban student, mathe- matics is one of t e most familiar and most interesting subjects found at Hoban. In this day and age, because of new inventions and discoveries, a thorough and intensive study of mathematics is necessary. Learning the intricacies of algebra, plane geometry, analytical geometry, trigonometry, and even calculus, while seeming an almost impossible task, well proves its worth in this scientific age. Besides offering the re- quired, ample mathematics course, Hoban High also offers a math program of a more difficult nature - a student, if capable, may take five years of mathe- matics, a study which ma lead to a further career in mathematics or science, besides making the student realize the full depth of his ability. Proving a theorem in trigonometry has always been a long and difficult task Here Jerry Leyden undertakes the difficult assignment and ends up well

EFFECTIVELY WITH OTHERS Expressing one's own ideas and studyin the ex- pression of other's ideas is a major factor in tge Hoban curriculum. Ioumalism and speech classes deal with self-expression, while the Latin and French classes pertain to the study of both classical and modem civilizations. English is a much more complicated language than we may realize. Every year we delve a little further into the realm of its complexity. The entire language department contributes to the well- rounded personality, besides enrichening the scl1ool's atmosphere. Research work presents problems to students in the various English classes. Invadmg the card catalog are Il-rj Vic Rogers, Tom Babb jerry Broadhurst, Bob Kelly and N1ckTholt
