And Academic Spirit Pointing out different species of fish in the acquarium and describing their characteristics is MR. WRAY DARR. In-addition to classes in chemistry and biology, he is kept busy as a sponsor of the Senior Class and the Senior Science Club. w Giving a lecture in chemistry is MR. CHARLES DUGGAN, chemistry and seventh grade science teacher. Mr. Duggan, in his sixth year at BHS, is a co-sponsor of the junior High Science Club. Solving an intricate math problem with the aid of a slide rule is MR. JACK SADLER, physics and general science teacher. In addition to instructing classes in the physical laws of nature, he is often seen photographing plays, sports events, dances, and many other activities. I In this age of space satelites and nuclear weapons, science plays an increasingly important part in the curriculum at BHS. Through science students get a foundation in under- standing the natural world, and in preparing themselves for college, vocations, and other phases of life. Throughout this year BHS has experienced a widely expanded sci- ence program. More students than ever before were enrolled in scien- tific courses. To keep pace with these increases, a new biology room was added to the rapidly expanding facilities. Three teachers, MR. 'WRAY DARR, MR. CHARLES DUGGAN, and MR. JACK SADLER are among the faculty members responsible for promoting academic spirit through science. Interested science stu- dents d e v o t e many hours after school learn- ing more about subjects of their particular in- terest. Here a group of students, instructed by Mr. Dart, examine the skeleton of a Sawnose Shark. Students are, left to right, Sandy Kurre, San- dy Adams, john Collo- di, Owen Brookman, Stephani Stoyanoff, Jim Caplan, Frank Lorsbach, Vicki Bothman, Kathy Carter, and Annette Sie- gel. 21
