cience parimeni Although for many years I've gazed down on the scientific activities of Durham High, l'm more baffled than ever at the many ex- periments the students have made this year. I'll never know why the hiology classes thrived 011 hisecting' frogs and cutting' up insects. or why M r, Bell 's eheniistry students concocted those strange odors which wander- ed hy me 1-at-h day. I always sat on edge for fear they would blow me sky-high. The physics class under Mr. I'Sunting s direction did the oddest experiment with plain ILO. XVhat miracles these young' scientists per- formed! Some day, I know, they will be famous and how proud l'll be! Q? sw-W' First row: Mr. Glenn Bunting, Miss Ruby NVillia1ns, SfCllll1lillg.'

ocia cience eparimeni In the twenty-five years that I have spent looking' over llurhznn High School, I have seen ideas formed that liave set a higher level because of the silent, yet effective work of the Som-iail Heienm-es. The aims of this de- Il2ll'illl6 llf are: to teaeh significant fam-ts in the field ot' history and allied subjects: to seek to establish a sane philosophy of life in our tl6lll0l!I'2lt'j'1 to stren,g'the11 the ability of all students to think logically, in order to form sane ,llltlQ'll1QlliS2 to inspire interest, 1-oopei-ation, and harmonious relations annong all Durliann High School students.
