HOPKINS ADVANCED MATH STUDENTS EXAMINE THE ENTRAILS OF THE G-15 COMPUTER CATCHING UP WITH THE NEW COMPUTER IN 1966, Pythagoras, prisms, and polonomiols provided continuous fascination for more Hopkins students than ever before. This fact was evidenced in an increase of neorly two hundred ond fifty students taking mathematics courses. To cope with this population increase, the moth department itself expanded with the oddition of three new instructors, Mr. Neuman, Mr. Schelin, ond Mr. Rovn. A new semester course on probability and statistics was offered, along with two sessions of o four week after school course on the use of the slide rule. Similar after school courses were olso offered on the operation of the G-15 digital computer, aided by tours of the Honeywell electronic-brain center. Because of such courses, Warrior moth wizards were enabled to program the computer to do olmost any mathematical task and even a few nof-so-mothema-ticol tosks such os writing poetry and playing tick-tack-toe. In addition, a new team-teaching system was used on an experimental basis in some of the acceleroted math classes. 27

UNDER THE GUISE OF A MASTER MECHANIC, JOHN KLUGE GRAPPLES WITH A GRIMY GENERATOR WARRIOR WORKMEN TAKE TO THEIR TOOLS TO KEEP UP WITH INDUSTRY was the objective of the industrial arts program. Over five hundred interested boys were offered more than a dozen different shop courses concerned with wood, metal, printing, drawing, electronics, and automobile repair. Beginning classes were aimed at the mastering of basic skills through assigned projects, while more advanced courses allowed the students to specialize and develop their own projects in an area of their own interest. Cabinet units, stereo assemblies, two cylinder gas engines, and special photographic engraving projects were among the student's individual achievements. Fifty seniors gained additional experience working in local industrial plants through the aid of the Hopkins cooperative training program. 29
