MR. DAVID GRIMM - B.S. from Ashland College: Sophomore class Adviser, Science Club Adviser, Golf Coach, Rifle Club Adviser. This experiment better work right threatens Suzanne Boegli. l l. il Don Opfer keeps a close eye on his experiment. Laser ls Used Intermediate science curriculum study, under the supervision of lVlr. Howard Yunghams and lVlr. David Grimm, included various areas of science. The highlight of the year in chemistry was the students' study of rocketry. Material was purchased and rockets were constructed. The runs were successful, and the rockets could be seen leaving their pads. Self-propelled cars and homemade catapults were the main projects of the physics class. They also had the experience of using the new laser recently purchased. Both the first and second semester advanced chemistry classes studied semi-micro qualitiative analysis and organic chemistry. Students learned about astronomy, geology, metrology, and oceanography in earth science. The class was designed to give the student a broad perspective of the physical forces affect- ing the form and structure of the earth. Each student made a rock collection, a requirement for the classl lVlr. Yunghans was the instructor. Science!191

Vo-Ag Has Career Opportunities MR. BRUCE THAYER - B.S. from Ohio State University, F.F.A. Adviser, ticket seller. Career opportunities and expe riences in agriculture covered a vast range in the courses offered in the Vocational Agricultural Depart- ment. Mr. Bruce Thayer was the in- structor. The study and identification of breeds of livestock, field crops, vegetable and fruit crops, and seeds and weeds were included in Agri- cultural Science l. Improved crop and livestock practices were emp- hasized along with elementary parliamentary procedure and mechanical skills in welding. Agriculture Science ll included advanced work in livestock and crop areas. Additional study and practice in various areas of shop work was given. Students were taught to keep and analyze farm or work experience records. Members of the class in advanced agricultural science dealt with farm management, conservation, and mechanics. A hog trailer was built by the students in this class. 5911 I it Stanley Weilnau cleans up for the day. Joan Nickols examines a biology specimen. Science!193
