1939 Legenda Science and Mathematics Therefore X is equal to Y2—the Mathematics department, directed by Mrs. Dorothy Giesel, de partment head, and Miss Susan Orr, a newcomer to the faculty, offers algebra, plane and solid geom etry, and trigonometry. Experimentation, dissection, and testing, all come in the work of science-minded students. Chemistry, physics, and biology are the main sci- ences offered, with a special two semester course in general science. Working in a realm of test tubes, flasks, beakers, and chemical odors, students are guided through the mazes of chemistry under the tutelage of Mr. A. G. Dersch. Preparing a foundation for more advanced learning, students work on experiments, make numerous outlines, and explore the remote corners of the Water Works. Ferreting out the mysteries of light, heat, fric- tion, and lenses, Mr. K. C, Poulson’s physics class es find many things, before unexplainable, easily expounded. The odor of formaldehyde and the sight of par tially dissected animals may turn some faint-hearted souls sick, but not the biology students. With Miss ise Bacon and Miss Marion Thomas ready and ing to explain the mysteries of everyday life, ents find the “science of life” an interesting ject. ist recently offered, the general science course a little of each of the sciences in instructing ents. Taught by Mr. Poulson and Miss Thom- as, the subject is ideal for those students who do not wish to major in science. Ed Henderson fills a test Helen Hubinger and Jim Thomas watch distillation.

Tom Keyser peers through the microscope Heyn and Shirley Strachen examine slides. Dorothy Prior examines a minute object. Marie Schleicher and Bill Holme-Shaw demonstrate theorems.
