Bill Shorrock hadn't realized the possibilities of the elements of Plane Geometry until Mr. Baish and Judy Freeman pointed them out. Math — The Key to a Satellites and rocket ships and the world struggle for scientific supremacy—these current events are constant reminders of the imjrortancc of mathematics. Here at Bethesda-Chevy Chase, however, we need no reminder. From the commercial math to the rapid learner solid geometry anti trigonometry classes, both the future Mr. Woolford adjusts the transit for Alice Bryant while Lcs Higbie, book in hand, waits his turn.

Keeping Physically A welcome break in the middle of a jam-packed day is the trot down to the gym for an hour of physical instead of mental exercise. While the summer breezes are still lingering around the athletic fields, soccer balls and footballs fly from goal to goal, and stray dogs on the archery hill wager their existence against the skill of a class of female Robin Hoods. Winter forces the girls inside to practice teamwork and techniques on the basketball court, and MR. JAMES DAVIS. B.S., M.Ed.: Varsilv Sports ... MR. FRED- ERICK FITANIDES. B.S..

The boys, oblivious to all kinds of weather, carry on a rugged outdoor program covering sj orts from foot- ball in the fall to baseball and track in the spring and, incidentally, turning out many varsity players. The ideals of sportsmanship and teamwork acquired now will benefit us the rest of our lives. Mr. Doanc and Mr. Judkins discuss the record of the varsity and JV basketball teams. They served as special coaches reporting each afternoon to work out with the squads. 17

Gain Careers In The Business World “Miss Moore, may we borrow one of your girls to work in the office this period?” It’s an all-familiar re- ?[uest to many commercial students who are planning or a career in the business world. Nothing develops proficiency in any activity as well as practice, and the students behind the high bank counter or facing the early-morning crowd at the school store will be the first to agree. Actual out-in-the-world” experience is available to the Diversified Education students, seniors who attend school for three periods in the morning and work in town during the afternoon under their em- ployer's supervision. The common meeting point of Commercial and non- commercial students occurs over the typewriter, where both bend to the task of training errant fingers to obey their owner and find satisfaction in the triumph of “mind over matter”. We find final satisfaction in that summer job which came because of our typing skill. Earl Toonc, Susan Sclkc, Riia ima.
