Mathematics stimulated minds. As students of Belleville Junior College, we were extremely proud of our Mathematics Department. Our studies in basic mathematics, college algebra, tri¬ gonometry-, analytical geometry, calculus, and slide rule prepared us to meet challenges in the business, en¬ gineering, and scientific fields. The Mathematics De¬ partment, headed by Mr. Kenneth L. Pvatt, afforded us an outstanding opp rtunitv to qualify in all phases of mathematics. Jim Werkmeister, Jerry Kreitner, Dennis Smalling, Cordell La Brier, and Brad Westre inspected possible angles. Our mathematics instructors were, front row: Mr. Harold Yung, Ed.; Mr. Kenneth L. Pyatt, B. Ed., M.A.; Mr. Donald Jackson, B.A., B.S., Ed. M. ; Miss Genevieve Snider, A.B., M.A.; and Mr. Mike M.A., and Mr. Oliver Kueker, B.A., M.A. Zupsich, A.B., A.M. Back Row: Mr. Albert Besserman, B. Ed., M.S. Mr. Besserman helped geometry students measure angles with a protractor. Heyll That point was left over from the last graph!

Mrs. Jean Best, B.A., M.S., was our capable instructor in the Home Economics Department. Home Ec supplied studies in nutrition. The Junior College Home Economics Department, under the guidance of Mrs. Jean Best, acquainted us with the study of nutrition. The sound training and in¬ struction received will be in evidence when we assume our respective roles after graduation. Many will be found in laboratories and hospitals as skilled dieticians. Others will reflect the value of knowledge gained by becoming nutrition queens of their own households. We can be assured that, in the future, many of our graduates will be conversant and well qualified in the field of nutrition. Helen Porker. Judith Joney. and Estrallita Reyes practiced their knowledge of nutrition in the modern, newly redecorated kitchen, 23

Hyperbolic Par-What? ’—one of the many problems Mr. Scott helped Roger Haltzen- boehler, Bob Pontious, Dennis Hermann, to solve in General Engineering 102. Meet Our Engineers! The complex problems involved in many types of engineering require, or can be reduced to, pictures. Drawing and understanding graphic representations of engineering problems is sometimes a long and compli¬ cated process which involves much study, explanation and practice. Very few of us realized before, the amount of preparation and planning that go into a item before production can even be considered. Mr. Frank Scott, in seven different general engineering courses, imparted to us an understanding, appreciation and respect for these engineering details. Mr. Frank Scott, B. Ed., A.M. gave one of his students a helpful hint on uniform line weight.
