Pointing out the part of the body which they are currently studying in physiology class are Mary Wooldridge and Kathy Sheldon. The model is of great help to the class in getting a clear picture of the location of certain organs. Physiology student Kathy Sheldon rises to make a report on the digestion system to Sister Marceline. Her classmates Norma Colaizzi, Jeanne Luberda, Margie Oehmann, Mary Flaherty, Ann Marie O'Donnell, Beca Martin, Princess Goldthwaite and Bobbi Thompson refer to a corresponding diagram in their books. Life Sciences Encourage Student Interest The sophomores at IHS work with materials before unknown to themg they speak with an en- larged, more technical vocabu- lary. All this comes as a result of the excellent biology course presented to them by Sister Mar- celine and Miss Chamberlain. In lecture and in lab, the biol- ogy students develop a knowl- edge of the mysteries of living things: the comparatively sim- ple plant life, the more complex animal kingdom. The intricacies of the human organism are unfolded in the physiology course where seniors are joined by junior college stu- dents under Sister Marceline's direction. Physiology students acquire a thorough understand- ing of the organization of the parts of the human body and their related functions. 's.,,.ivV

Senior physicists Kathy Cross and Gail Bloch prove, with the Slinky, that Physics is fun as they send pulses along the coils to show their classmates the behavior of waves.

5 'S- ' f-ii Operating on live frogs in biology class doesn't seem to bother Josephine Eustace and Celina Neves as long as the specimen is safely secured. The girls are preparing to perform a systematic study of the parts of the frog. Janis Widniayer and Ilona Modly measure the sizes of leaves on plants which have been allowed different amounts of light. Diane Love records the findings for their notebooks. 41 Sarah Shepard makes an ideal patient by aiding in Pat VVard's extraction of blood from her finger. The sample will be analyzed and the blood type determined.
