Science Inspires Thinking Mr. Samuel Mayhugh Mr. James Sanner A.B., Olivet Nazarene B.S., Wisconsin State. College. Miss Marilyn Amick Mr. Murrell Duffie B.A., Purdue University. B.A., M.A., Washington College The science department at Dyer Central gives an unusually rich and illuminating picture of scientific thinking. They have offered thoughtful opinions on the possibilities and the limitations of science, what it can contribute to civilization, and what other ngredients are required to assure the progress of society. They strive to help students view the balance of both science and human values. Science teachers emphasize reason and wisdom in explaining scientific principles and exhort students to consult their hearts and heads to understand the phenomena of the world we live in. Modern science is not always easy, and when a student encounters dif¬ ficulty, the teacher can only make every effort to en¬ lighten, rather than to astound. In the above picture, Mr. Mayhugh is instructing two of his science students.

Moth Reveals An Interesting World Mr. Kern ' s class doesn ' t seem very interested in his attempts to teach them. Are parallel lines really parallel? What is the theory of relativity all about? How was the size and shape of our galaxy determined? These are a few of the many fascinating topics covered in math classes. Science, as we know it today, could not have been what it is without the help of mathematics. Math courses have been made for those high school students who need use¬ ful mathematics which will prepare them for competent and happy citizenship.
