Thi» display aptly portrays the interrelation among the several subjects of the science department. DON RICHARDS 7th and 8th Science JAMES COSS 7th Science, 7th Math AL CRONHEIM 7th and 8th Science Lab time was one of great probing in the scientific world of elements, compounds, and mixtures in the chemistry classes taught by Mr. Westaway.

Science 'Department „Again Triumphs in Developing Scientific Jnterest The science department of CHS has, through the years, strived to help its students better understand the won- ders of the world around us. Even in Greek and Roman times, wise men were dedicating their lives to learning about and recording for future generations the basic axioms every science student here at CHS is taught. It is almost as if every famous scientist was personally handing his notes and observations to each stu- dent taking a science course. For every- thing those great men learned can be found in a simple sense in the class- rooms of the science department. One of Mr. Cronheim's science classes performed an experiment dealing with electricity. REX CARROW Biology AlWYN WESTAWAY Chemistry (Left to right) Marcia Baird, Jody Beach, and Paul Whitney found that using the microscope was only one of the many fascinating aspects of biology. 22

Mathematics — A a Important Slement in Every day Civing DALLAS STALL Physics, Plane Ge- ometry Almost as soon as a child begins to talk, the parents teach the youngster to distinguish the difference in quantity. This is his first introduction to the fasci- nating world of mathematics. In time he will learn how to add and subtract, then how to figure out complex problems easily through the use of mathematics. This knowledge will, in later life, benefit him very much. The math department of the high school works conscientiously to get the subject matter across to the stu- dent, and make it as clear as possible. As time goes by, the student will realize just how important that math class really was! A traditional scene in the plane geometry class EUGENE STRAIT is a student explaining a problem at the board. Algebra 9, Math 8 thereby better understanding the procedure of solving a problem. MALCOLM GOBEL Trig, Plane Geometry, Algebra II One of the new traditions found to be effective were the two large algebra classes consisting of every student taking algebra this year, taught by Mr. Strait and Mr. Engstrom. 24
