NASA Helped Blast-ofF our New Science Club The Louisiana Junior Academy of Sciences was organized in 1941. The Junior Academy was formed for students in grades 7 12 by the Louisiana Academy of Sciences. The objectives of the Academy are to stimulate an interest in Science and math; form math and Science clubs and supplement them with materials and spe cial publications; and recognize student achievement in Science and math. This was the first year that we had the Jr. Academy. Mr. AbaittL the new Science teacher, began this organization with a project involving NASA. ' The Endless Voyage was the major project sponsored by Jr. Academy this year. It not only involved the Jr. Academy but also uti lized the drafting classes and a few experienced scuba-divers. In January the organization was involved with a teleconference at the Alternate View NetWork television station. The group was also invited to a four day trip to the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. The tour includ- ed the space camp, museum, and the center itself. The thing I liked most was the advanced computers at the center. They were awesome, said Jennifer Marion. B. huckabay, N. Hohmann. V. Moang, C. Quinley, (back) B. Brazzeal, L. Nguyen, L. Wise, M.

Computer Club Takes a byte out of the Apple Computers are the new trend of to- day ' s society, and knowledge of the computer is becoming not only a pleasure, but also a necessity. The Computer dub recognizes this fact and helps to further the advancement of students interested in computers. It provides information about new Pro¬ ducts and devices to members. The dub also teaches new techniques in programming. For members of the dub, time is sometimes provided for recreational activities that are not al- lowed during dassroom time. One Service project of this club is the help- ing of other students with trouble- some programming tasks. The spon- sors, Dr. Otto Sellers and Mrs. Hartwell, enjoy spending time with students to help them leam about all aspects of the computer and its func- tion in our society. Club members (seated) Brenda Tipton, Kristie Weeks, (standing) Sharon Morseworthy, Tommy Britt, Leslie Bordelon, Jane Whittington, Stacy Savell, Sarah Robinson, Jennifer Brasseux, Denise Dowling, and Heather Burch seem to be amazed at Jill Bequette s new program.
