If so, then why not take Grosse Pointe North,s new course Aviation Science. Its a course full of excitement, stimulation and variation. Northk science department, headed by Mr. Gordon Morlan, keeps up with the changing style of interest. Offering Classes which will be a challenge to each student is a diH-icult job. This is a major concern of Northis Science Department. Whether the student is headed for a career in a sci- entiHc field or just learning it for his own benefit, Northis Science Department is sure to have a complete range of classes available. If he,s interested in moles, light waves, micromrganisms, or just plain learn- ing about his pet rock, the iimad scientists, at North can help him.

Mr. McKenna explains a difficult assignment to one of his students Social Studies concepts thrive in Bicentennial year This year, being the Bicentennial, gives the Social Studies Department more reason than any other to celee brate. The majority of the courses under this heading deal with the history and makeup of the United States. When academic courses are mentioned, work is the first thing that comes to mind. This year, however, a change in routine will be sponsored by the Social Studies Department in connection with the Language Department and the Bicentennial Committee. Bicentennial week will run from April 5th to the 9th. It will include a day dedi- cated to ethnic background, morality, religion, celebrities and the students themselves. Contest, prizes, music, and decorations will accompany each of the 5 days. This year the Social Studies clearly expressed the im- portance of Americas 200th Birthday.
