These six short words do not describe all classes. In the hands of creative, interested teachers, history classes developed into a stimulating, enjoyable, and rewarding experience. Applied Economics used the computer to learn macroeconomics. junior Achievement sponsored the program for field- testing, remarked Coach Erwin. Classes par- ticipated in mock trials, painted murals, developed timelines for historic relationships, presented panel discussions of social changes, and learned gamef puzzle quiz ideas for devel- LWLQ oping review skills. Our goal, said Chair-man Karin Moore, was to promote an interrelationship among our courses so all graduates will understand global relations. Some things go together like Dagwood and Blondie, pork and beans, and bow and arrow. History is full of such affinities or pairs. Our teachers and their concern for teaching social studies provided vital learning experiences and in- sights. The only modifications, remarked Karin Moore, would be to have Mike Davis teaching history like the rest of the teachers and a muffler for Dick Erwin's vocal cords! zgfjgn A' DA iff' ' 0 ' If ,X,,,,f7xZ?g,,V,,4, vqjl-ff-f , V AJ! 5'ociaIStud1eJ 143 'Ai :ii 236131775 vfffg fenqiiel-Y-, mfs. , a .

The contents released a foul-smelling gas into the air. Then he reach- ed for another test tube with a bubbling compound in it. He slowly picked it up and carried it over to the table where his active solution lay. The student carefully poured the compound into the solution. BOOMPH!! The mixture of chemicals blew up into the air above his desk. Aaaargh! The student yelled as his failed experiment land- ed on his desk. Luckily for him, he had adhered to the safety rules closely by wearing his safety goggles and protective apron. Chemicals, alkali earth elements, moon phases, and zones of the earth's atmosphere were all part of the science classes. Students had a wide variety of curiosities to explore, but they all had one thing in common: labs. Earth Science, Biology, Chemistry, and Physicis classes all had labs to complete. The most eagerly awaited labs were the dissec- tion. Students had to dissect frogs, worms, crayfish, and cats. No matter what the pro- blems, the science courses helped students utilize their minds to solve it. Science 145
