AS A PORTION of the biology program, the students are requested to learn the names and location of the main bones in the body. Attentively listening to Mrs. Bazonas, as she points out the bones on a skeleton, her class struggles to compre- hend these important points. Nowadays it is a challenge of modern science to train your mind to understand. Anatomies and Expressions Studied in Science Atkinson, Mahlon Yale University B.A. Beale, Robert C. Temple University B.A., M.A. STROKING THE FEMUR of one of Mr. Leer’s skeletons, a student observes the bones of the body. Sophomores make up the majority of the classes in biology, learning many terms of plant and animal life.

Student Aided by Literature FOUR YEARS of nouns, verbs, adverbs, and English teachers are needed in order for gradua- tion. Literature plays a big part to every college- bound student and is included in every grade. With this there are many activities which make English very interesting. There are plays, puppet shows, skits and art exhibits. Mrs. Shekmar is in charge of the English De- partment (this also includes languages). Many English teachers are stressing vocabulary and many varied tests have been given, taken from the college board examinations. The seniors are putting on Macbeth and Hamlet with the aid of Mrs. Spencer this year. These dramas are composed of the members of two dif- ferent classes of which there are thirty students in each class. 17

Traveling Library Fulfills Knowledge “WHAT IS A GERM? What is H20? When do I know when to pour in the water?” These are the typical questions asked of the teachers in the science department by bewildered sophomores, striving juniors, and over-confident seniors. There have been more chemistry and physics classes than ever before (12 chemistry and 5 physics). From the advanced physics courses often there is a Physical Science Study Committee. Among other activities for students, there are educational films scheduled for most of the biology classes. Films have been proven an excellent sup- plement for the classroom lectures. This year General Motors gave an assembly for all of the students; aimed mostly for those inter- ested in the field of science. The science department under Mrs. Nelms has had a successful year by the enrollment in various classes offered. In chemistry the main objective for both ad- vanced and general are to learn symbols, valences, and how to write various types of equations. Sec- ond semester is a study of the most important elements, their compounds, composition products, etc. Advanced physics is mostly all principles and theories. by New Challenge.... EXTRA READING, notebooks, projects, and research papers are among the requirements for some science classes. Interest and additional time are needed for the making of these projects.
