To read the chapters of mankind Mr. William Lavin Mr. Theodore Sharp SOCIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT While seniors deliberate over the weighty enigma of the modern world, preparing to offer compact solutions, freshmen are learning to appreciate the present life by delving into the history of ancient civili- zations. From the Austrolopithicene conquests to the Great Society, no matter how involved the material, the excellent teachers manage to make interesting a study of social man and thereby spur the student on to further research in this area of time analysis.

SCIENCE DEPARTMENT Besides supervising the often untidy ex- periments of the perhaps future physicists, surgeons, chemists, and geologists, the Bourne science teachers must find time to instruct these students in theoretical as well as experimental knowledge. Mutilating in- nocuous frogs and amoeba, concocting sul- phur-dioxide, (singing a cheerful tune?) stu- dents march down the merry paths of science. The teachers work as a team to pro- vide an environment in which students will eagerly seek out Truth. This year as Canal- men passed from earth science to biology to chemistry to physics or advanced biology, teachers breathed sighs of relief as well as of accomplishment. “Look, the amoebae are stag- ing a protest march.” Mr. Joseph Putnam Mr. J. Paul Thibault
