Dissections, Bisections No, I can't understand it either, but this frog has two hearts! This year the Science Department heard many such profound statements, but it was all in a day's lab. Besides listening to profound comments, the Science Department offered such classes as General Science, Biology, Physics and Advanced Physics and Chemistry and Advanced Chemistry. Class work ranged from the dissection of a frog to the combining of two I-I's and an O. Interest in Science was enhanced this year by the Annual Science Fair held on March 25, 26, and 27, and by the presentation of palatable paramecium at the Biology Club dinner.
