CARL BURTON LUNDQUIST Taylor University, A.B. ; Associate in Chemistry Dr. Jekyll has nothing over “Doc” Day! “Whew! What ' s that foul odor?” comments an F.H.S. student as he passes through the science wing. Whether it be gas from the chemistry lab or formaldehyde from biology specimens, this odor denotes investigation in the mysterious world of science. Biology is required for graduation, however, chemistry and physics are offered to those who desire more advanced science courses. Last year a new course in advanced biology was offered, and it is steadily becoming one of the most popular subjects of the department.

STEPHEN HOUSTON Oklahoma City University, B.A., U.N.C., M.E., Algebra 1, English i | Department Stress ■ importance of ' i V “Math teaches you to think. People who have just solved “word” problems in a math class know just how true that statement is. Taking math is more than just learning to work problems mechanically. In the three-year course offered at Fayetteville High, a student has an ample opportunity to become well acquainted with algebra, geometry, trigonome- try, solid geometry and general or advanced math. The programmed learning courses allow the student to progress at his own pace. This enables some to finish more than one math course during the school year. MRS.
