This reaction was soon superseded by one of horror as teachers explained the amount of material they expected to cover in the coming year. An unexpected explosion or the surprise of seeing the inside of a worm became second nature to the chem- istry and biology classes. The physics classes stayed on the path oi' the basic principles of matter and energy, while the senior science boys learned a little bit about everything. But all shared a common surprise at seeing the amount of knowledge they really could put away in such a fascinating subject as science turned out to be. A demonstration presented by Mr. Wishau is watched intently by his chemistry II class. hart essential compounds for his next experiment. pw.,

ARE EHS EAGER BE VERS There's a light bulb burned out in Room 2023, 'sThe pencil sharpener in Room 161 is , not working. Could you tell me where I can find a hammer?,, These are only a few sam- ples of the long list of questions so often asked our EHS custodians. Mr. Ralph Den- nart, head custodian, Mr. Alfred Cousins, Mr. Raoul Le Casse, Mr. Arthur Smith, Mr. Earl Thornton, and Mr. Charles Walkinshaw were on call for solving perplexing problems around school. Another helping hand was Emma Cutts, the Edgewater maid, who gladly aided the Eagles every possible moment. Pausing a moment from their varied duties around EHS are our busy custodians: Mr. Ralph Dennart, Mr. Raoul LaCasse, Mr. A. C. Smith, Mr. Earl Thornton. and Mr. Charles W. Colter. 19 One of the most difficult jobs found around Edgewater, that of keeping the sch00l's premises as clean as possible, is cheer- fully accomplished by Emma Cutts, our able helper.

MATHEMATIC TEACHER HAVE PROBLE I T00 Your projects will be due exactly three weeks from today. This statement was made not only in the English and vocational courses, but in the mathematics courses as well. These teachers believed that proj- ects should be required from each student to help them gain a better understanding of the common uses of geometry and algebra in our world of today. The mathematics teachers had meetings and conventions, and many of them continued taking refresher courses during the summer in various colleges to keep their teaching and their students up-to-date. The students who selected to take these math courses realized the hard work that was involved, but as the year ended they felt as rewarded as the teachers who taught them, and each one looked forward to the day UL Just taking it easy is Miss Neal while her door gets decorated for Christmas. Mr. Brisbin and Miss Agnew listen while Miss Neal explains a theory to Mr. Hare. that they would put their past four years of learning into practice
