Wfdliemddw You may avoid staying just a buck private if you are among those senior boys finishing off with the refresher math course this year. It is being offered especially to help boys gain a higher rating when they enter the armed forces. In this way Austin High School is making its contribution to the great all-out war effort. Enrollment in all math courses has increased greatly, giving proof that 'rithmetic is not neg- lected in high school, but is stressed along with readin' and writin'. dence Encouraging people with scientific ability to continue in their studies is one of the most im- portant functions of the science department. This year the Naturalist Club was replaced by the Junior Academy of Science which is a member of the national organization of the same name. Science Talent Search tests were administered to outstanding seniors who wished to try for scholarships. All possible aid was given during the year to individual scientiic progress of all kinds.

addenda! With a low supply of materials for the con- struction of many projects of the Industrial Arts department, smaller projects have been undertaken this year. Scrap materials have furnished the needed raw equipment for these projects. Critical War materials were restricted for the use of the de- partment in most cases, and substitutions had to be made. Once again, necessity proved to be the mother of invention, and the work of the department went on with almost the usual full time schedule of projects. Among the post war plans of the Industrial Arts department are the enlarging of the whole set-up and the inclusion of courses for girls as Well as boys. ln the area of homemaking, girls will find elementary knowledge of shop useful when a drawer refuses to budge or the cupboard door sticks stubbornly.
