A study of the elements and compounds, high school chemistry is a stepping stone to further study. Many scientists and chemists have had their first glimpse of the chem- ical world in the laboratory. Physics Problems and experiments not only are seen in chemistry 8 ad- vanced math classes, but also in the physics classes. Learning the fun- damental laws and their properties and uses takes up much time of the physics students.

EDUCATION Physical Education Learning the fundamental strokes and water safety, these junior high girls are enjoying their swim. They enthusiastically take part in the proverb. All work and no play makes Jill a dull girl . Swimming is only one part of their fun and frolic. Tumbling, soccer, basket- ball. volleyball, and softball also are on their activity list. Grades seven through ten have gym classes twice a week and re- ceive one-fourth credit for their work. Each sport has its own ad- mirers. Physical fitness is the main idea behind these classes. Tests comparable to English Minimum Essentials are also given in gym. xx N Y X MARY XVILSON lVlllRMfXll7S Swim' fish Illini? xuczles.
