MR. ROY DOUGLAS ELLIS BS., Georgia Southern. Physics and Chemistry. Our universe holds a number of strange mysteries. Through chemistry and phys- ics we see and wonder at these oddities. The primary sciences try to help us, by means of scientific truth, to discover the solutions and thereby push civilization forward to us, the citizens of America. Science is the password meaning the fu- ture and the golden door of opportunity; but only knowledge and learning can open the door. cut ocecut MISS FREIDA SMITHWICK B.A., M.A., Wnthrop, Peabody College.

Through American literature the jun- iors at Glynn Academy learn to visualize and appreciate the beauty of America. Their country is unfolded before them by the authors and poets who have the ability to create lasting impressions and interest- ing aspects. Along with literature the students are taught correct sentence con- struction and grammar. The product is not only a better understanding of their language but also of their country. cvitJl @6ze zx MISS CAROLE COLEMAN A. B., Wesleyan. English 2. MRS. R. H. EDWARDS B. S., M.A., Georgia Teachers College, Peabody College. English 2. MRS. R. S. HALL B.S.. Eastern State Teachers College. English 2; Sponsor of Future Teachers. Sophomore English is an introduction to literary genius. One must be able to understand and apply what he reads and to choose his material with taste. Be- sides reading, an educated person must have the ability to speak and write clear- ly. Therefore, as a foundation, Sopho- more English is the key to future learning and enjoyment. 19

CAROLYN WILLIS A.B., Winthrop College. Algebra 2 and Ge- ometry. MISS BEULAH LOTT A.B., Randolph Macon Woman’s College; A.M., Columbia University. Advanced Algebra; Trig- onometry; Head of Math Department; Math Club Sponsor. In keeping with the modern world are our classes in Math 4 and Geometry. Here, under the guidance of Miss Lott, Miss Tracy, and Mrs. Willis, aspiring Euclids learn the skills which enable them to pursue advanced mathematical courses in college. Both Math 4 and Geometry are designed to prepare the students for college. Geometry increases the student’s ability to find out the “why” of things and teaches him basic geometric skills. 7idea MR.

WHITE B.S.Ed., M.Ed., West Georgia College; Univer- sity of Georgia; University of Virginia. General Math 2. MR. ORIN D. LUNSFORD A.B., University of Georgia. Math. Math 4 consists of two half-year courses, one in advanced algebra and one in trig- onometry. The students in these classes are limited only by their desire and ability to learn. General math and algebra are courses designed to fit into a scheme of living. The fundamental operations of general math give one the necessary knowledge for business and industry, while algebra pushes a pupil toward the entirely dif- ferent sphere of higher education. 21
