Math Means Cone, Concentric, Concentration The trigonometry class attracted more seniors than ever before as the atmosphere was permeated by the thought that seniors are mature, thinking individuals, capable of originality and logical thinking in the solution of problems. The C. H. S. Math Department was head- ed by Mr. Nolan in cooperation with Mr. Ballock and Mrs. Lapworth. Mathematics, called the language of science, gave will- ing students an opportunity to challenge their basic knowledge of arithmetic through more advanced application of fundamental principles. Some freshmen enrolled in general math, while others took algebra I and II. Second- year math students pursued plane geometry; algebra III and college algebra comprised third-year math. Available only to the sen- iors, trigonometry and analytical geometry provided students a chance to measure their high school mathematical achievement. Angle bisection, a fundamental geometric procedure, is simplified when Diane Sanquenetti and Larry Jones demon strate it on the blackboard.

 Un, deux, trois--chantez! Maestro Hawkins bids the French class. Language And Books Issue Imaginary Compliments of: The various classes of the Language Arts Department, supervised by Mrs. Baldwin, were taught by Mrs. Gerrish, Mrs. Hawkins, Mrs. Craig, Mrs. Guerri, Mrs. Miller, and Mr. Izor. Students enticed by the thought of speak- ing a foreign tongue were given a choice of three Romance languages --Latin, French and Spanish. While Latin students fought side by side with Caesar in the midst of the Gallic Wars, French enthusiasts were caught in the spell of gay Paree as they prepared French menus and gathered information for itiner- aries of mythical tours of the French coun- tryside. The festivities of a Spanish holi- day were brought to life as Spanish stu- dents burst open a gaily decorated pinata; on the other hand, the siesta, which is an absolute must to the Latin Americans, was denied. Crossword puzzles are fun in any language agree Marlene Gugliemetti and Susan Summerville. 22 THE DANA NEWS BUDDY DAGLEY'S COFFEE SHOP
