-GEOLOGY GEOLOGY CLASS: Front row, left to right: Mikic Gross, Kenneth Pulse, Francis Freese, Mr. Marshall Lamheii. Back row, left to right: David Gross, John Slorey, Mary Ellen Carey. The Carter County museum is an important and outstanding feature of the Carter County High School. The museum whs founded in 1934 by Walter Peek. DeLoss Hall, and Sep ton Cady. These three men through their untiring efforts, collected numerous specimens from the surrounding territories, mounted them, and placed them on display; thus, they started what is today one of the best local geological museums in the country. A course in geology was first incorporated into the curriculum in 1941 and since then it has enabled students to acquire first-hand knowledge in the geological field. Present curator of the museum is Mr. Marshall Lambert, science and geology instructor. Mr. Lambert has given students an opportunity to participate in field trips which have been of great benefit in learning of the practical aspects of geology in regard to the excavation and pres- ervation of the fossils. The large Trachodon skull shown in the picture above was recently completed by Mr. Lambert. The skull made its first public appearance at the Geological Founder’s Day Banquet given early in March. “Deni hones gonna rise agi'n” in the museum workshop. HRST YOU FIXI) IT — THEN YOU PLASTER IT
