SCIENCE A government grant . of five hundred dollars was awarded to the Calla- way science department this year to help finance a botanical garden in which biology students could view concepts they had learned in the classroom. Chemistry and physics students also saw the abstract ideas they had learned in books become reality during experiments in one of the three fully equipped labs. The introduction of a new course to the science department, Health, gave Callaway students the opportunity to study this field for the first time. Miss Hendry lectures to her biology class on the classifications of phyla. SCIENCE TEACHERS: Mrs. Connie Cavett, Mrs. Doris Powe, Doyle L. Jones, Mrs. Shirley Wicks, and Mrs. Dorothy Young. 1,-.

COMMUNICATION ARTS 'R E E E E 1- -3' JOURNALISM, SPEECH, AND DRAMA TEACHERS: Mrs. Karen Overstreet, Mrs. Elizabeth Montgomery, and Mrs. Johnnye P. Jones. Words can be used . to communicate in many different ways. Journal- ism, speech, and drama were three electives of- fered at Callaway which helped the student learn to convey his message to others. While the drama and speech classes were concerned with oral com- munication, the journalism classes strove to pre- sent a picture of student life through word images in print. The paper staff offered a picture of school life in the present, while the annual staff worked throughout the school year to comprise the year into page after page of memories for Callaway students. Speech classes began with informative speeches and built up to more complex studies such as act- ing and debating. Students who were shaking with fright at the thought of giving their first speech were poised and confident in front of an audience at the end of the year. Drama classes were made up of students who either had natural stage ability and wanted to put it to use, or who wanted to de- velop this ability. The ETV program enables students to get out of class for part of the day. . - an 1, f WY V . f ., .r'.skY'I?k,. .. ' :asia F K .
