Electricity is explained in our everyday life. MR. REYNOLD MARTZ Physics, Lock Haveng Penn State Universityg B.S. Vis- ual Aids Club Advisor. The field of Science has now become one of the most important subjects in education. In the past year or so, educators have put an increasing emphasis on science, the reason being that it takes able and qualified scientists to expand our liv- ing world to other planets. The most important phase of Central Dauphin's science department is the Science Fair, held at the school on March thirteenth and fourteenth. All students who are taking a science course are asked to submit a project relating to their particular course. Although there are numerous objections from the students, in doing the projects, it is surprising to ob- MR. PAUL I.. PAXTON Chemistry. Science Dept. Head.

Central Dauphin's Social Studies Department is preparing their students in all fields of history, both past and present. To be a well-versed person, an ample knowledge of Social Studies is needed. United States History, the starting point for sophomores, explains itself, as does World History for juniors. The seniors study toclay's history and all its aspects, so named Problems of Democracy. Among the few schools to do so, Central Dauphin includes World War II in its history curriculum. This aids in giving all students a well-rounded education. When people practice the truth and fully understand each other, many national and local problems are solved, some never arise. One of the best places to get the understanding and truth, so badly needed, is in a classroom, a Central Dauphin classroom. As many people profit from others' mistakes, so history students profit from the mistakes and accomplishments of our ancestors. Our descendants, also, will profit from the mistakes, experiments, and ideas in motion in our generation. MR. JOHN G. MUNTONE Problems of Democracy, Sociology. Penn State Uni- zersity, B.S.

Last year the projects varied from conservation, and human anatomy to the more com- plicated machinery and elements of physics and chemistry. Wfinners at this fair are then eligible to submit their projects to :he Capital Area Science Fair. The areas of science offered at Central Dauphin are: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Physical Science, Astronomy, Geol- mgy, and Advanced Science and Math, a very wide selection for all students. With the variation of courses offered in schools today, the educators expect our scientists of tomorrow to be able to ex- wand our world. Plant life is almost as complicated as human life, and also just as interesting. 83 MR. HERBERT E.
