This year Arlington High School offered several courses in the lield of Social Science, headed by Mr. Schaller. Many of these courses are important to students because of the great need for more un- derstanding between people. .-X new Course was offered this year at Arlington. ,-Xinerican Problems was offered to sophomores, jun- iors, and seniors for one seinester. It was concerned with the aspects of goverinnent, plus a study of social and eeonoinieal probleins. YVorld geography and world history were again offered as part ol' the curriculum. They were concerned with the physical features, history, and politics ol: the world. Latin Atnerican History, Current History, Far Eastern His- tory, and liconomics were offered priinarily to upper- classnien for only one setnester. The first three, Latin American History, Current History, and Far liastern History, dealt with the history of Latin Atneri- ca, the iinpact of world crents in the United States, and the history of the Far Fast. Economics is a study ol' business, labor, international trade, and fartn prob- lClI1S. Sociology, offered only to seniors for either one semester or a l'ull year, coinbines psychology and sociology. Once again the Social Science Department has proved to be an iniportant lactor in the academic achievement ol' students at .Xrlington High School.

Potential Scientists Studying Their Fields Dissecting wornis, nralaing liydrogen, learning to solve lorniulas, and going to the Indiana Sand Dunes were all part, ol the Science classes this year at Arlington. Students were taught about light. forces. reactions, and lilie. For each year that passes, this already enormous field broadens. Therefore, many niore things have to be covered in the sundry cours- es that are olfered. Altogether, there are only seven courses which are open to Arlington students. Biology, which is usually taken by all lreshnien, is one course which is required for graduation. Students learn about the family of plants, and the laniily ol' animals, and about the hunian body. The other required one is Physical Science, which is taken by second year stu- dents. Physical Science is the combination of one semester ol' chentistry and another ol' physics. These are taught in this way to give to the student a basic concept of both subjects. The only other s c i e n c e course which is open to the sophoinores is Earth Science. This course is taught only for one seniese ter. Chemistry is open to all the upperclassnien. This course increases the student's knowledge of chemi- cals and their reactions. Physics, Zoology, and Bot- any, the three remaining courses, are for seniors only. In this past year the honors physics classes delved more deeply into the study of electronics than in previous years. Students receive a close look at the science world and the fields related to science. As a senior zoology student Randy Nlcliay tlissects a fetal pig. his fellow classmates .Indy Bieber and Del lirandau look on, juniors Dick Press and Pat Reiner use various means to measure the amounts needed for a chemical experiment. c . .
