Janl Basom, Bob Mack, Jerry Best, Deb Armstrong and Marilyn Balzer discuss the data from the growth rate and the development of tadpoles In an experiment in the first period Biology class. SCIENCE A New Lab As a part of a continuing area of expansion at Dallas high, Science students explored worlds unknown to them. Mr. William Glendenning, consultant to his advanced Biology students on their individual projects, worked in a new lab area and remodeled classroom. New to the department, Mr. Dan Johnson, supervised such experiments as frog dissection and hatching chickens and pheasants in Biology I. In Chemistry, Mr. Stan Church promoted individual study by offering the students different methods of study to complete the course. With the help of several Physics students working as lab assistants, he aided beginning Chemists in making basic chemistry-oriented discoveries about the elements and their reactions. In Physics, students worked with the laws of motion and spent time blowing glass. Wayne Embree measures the angle and strength of the magnetic pull exerted by a horseshoe magnet in Mr. Stan Church's physics class. 14

BUSINESS Jobs Unlimited With Christmas vacation came Miss Marsha Anderson’s last day at DHS, for she received a teaching opportunity in Europe. Miss Sally Hunt was hired to take over her classes in typing and office machines. The dictaphone, duplicating machine, calculator and ten-key adding machines all provided challenges as well as frustrations for students in the Office Machines class. Mr. Shawn Mosley taught typing, the most popular business class, and bookkeeping. Typing II and Stenography classes were instructed by Mrs. Nancy Warner. Future Business Leaders of America participated with Dallas businesses and members learned the function of various firms. In her office machines class Sherri Baker completes her assignment on the full ten key adding machine. 1 Bookkeeping students Carol Kahler and Vicki Rosenbalm tally their balance sheets prior to closing of accounts, while Royce Halford catches up on some typing using the electric typewriter. 16
