Microscope Begins Chemistry teaches the composition of substances and the transformations which they undergo. This is done in the lab where experiments are performed, such as destructive distillation, preparing hydrogen, and breaking equipment. Physics, dealing with the relationship between matter and energy, enables budding physicists to learn about force, sound, and light. Science is a many-sided heritage, with a legacy for everyone. That's where a muscle should be attached, says Mr. Greig to Leroy Phillips and Dennis Lee. Chief cooks and bottle-washers of Biology II, Normandie Earls, Frances, and Helen Stevens scrape out agar from the culture dishes. Dick Kastberg braces himself for a go with the gyro-wheel.

Where The Telescope Ends, The Dedicated (?) chemists, Janice McMurray and Susan Head, conduct after-hours experiment. Science, also, was a Grecian forte, as shown by the work of such a great man as Aristotle, and as it continued to flourish in Rome, in the experiments of Galen. The General and Applied classes don’t concentrate on one particular field, but gain an over-all understanding of science. Biology I students study the structure, classification, and life cycles of animals and plants. Biology II is a college prep course added to the curriculum this year. Students study zoology and botany through comprehensive reading and careful dissection, ranging from worms to pigs. And what did the Easter bunny bring you?

m, v j, Music Makers Make Merry Male Quartet, Allen Finley, Bill Streeter, Terrell Clarke, and Earl Marble, renders a swinging spiritual. Greg Denning and Mike King, experienced band-men, tootle before class. The ability to sing or play an instrument well is a gift, but one that needs training, polishing, and developing. The fine quality of musicanship displayed by the band during both marching and concert season, and by the choir in their Wassail Party and Operetta, Mr. Crane of Sleepy Hollow are the best recommendations possible for our music department. Within both groups are divisions, the pep band which supplied so much spirit and color to basketball season, the dance band with its swinging dance entertainment and choir operetta accompaniment, the triple trio which gave countless performances in their chic blue outfits, and the talented Male Quartet with their colorful spirituals. Such music! Triple Trio members, Janet Leatherman, Karen Brown, Donna Vermillion, Carol Glenz, Janice McMurray, Doris Ferguson, Susan Head, Pattie Vlcek, and accompanist Sara Scott, sing as well as they look.
