Mr. Downing introduced many sophomores to plane geometry, a course concerned with the relations, properties and measurements of surfaces, lines and angles. Its continuation, solid geometry and trigonometry, were taught by Mr. Cummings, who also taught the techniques followed in the local oil laboratories. Both these instructors taught classes in Algebra II. Vocational boys were given a foundation in mathematics and science in Mr. Keller's general mathematics, senior science and biology classes. Miss Allen instructed the students of biology. In this course, sophomores were acquainted with the life processes of plants and animals and the body struc- tures each phylum has developed with which to carry them out. Chemistry. in which students learned the composition of materials as well as their atomic composition, is taught by Mr. Kusner. Related science, a course offered to vocational boys. and physics, a study of mechanics, electricity heat, light and sound are taught by Mr. Pflug. MR. RALPH KELLER . My MR' DANHZLSJ- KUSNHP' MR. 1.

Those who have planned to study medicine, or be a statistician. an engineer, a chemist, or a laboratory technician have learned how to tackle a problem and carry it through to its logical con- clusion. Students develop the know-howv method that Will make them better able to solve the problems they will come across in their careers. Courses of study include trigonometry, solid geometry, algebra II, general mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, senior science, and related science. MISS LAURA ALLEN MR. FQRREST CUMMINCS MR.

Graduates of the Business Education Department are in con- stant demand by the businessmen and concerns of Bradford, for they are always satisfied with their work. MRS. LELA JOHNSON MR.
