FEM gy % Sees oon k's ee me Carol Grossman, Cora Jane Davis, Alice Estes, Kyle Ward at work on dissection in the Biology lab. Our Jefferson Science Club was reor- ganized this year under the leadership of Jimmy Korte, Johnny Johnson, Cris Catron and Teresa Nash. Three members, Johnny Johnson, Alice Estes and Buddy Robertson were Roanoke City Science Fair award win- ners. Particularly interesting were the field trips to the University of Virginia Engineer- ing Open House, the General Electric Salem plant, and the Radio Telescope at Green Banks, West Virginia. Stimulating guest speakers and films were presented at regu- lar meetings. The club enjoyed a member- ship of over 100 students, with interests varying from Biology to Astronomy. Officers of the Tri-Sci Club are Johnny Johnson, President; Jimmy Korte, Vice-President; Theresa Nash, Secretary; and Chris Catron, Treasurer. Above, Dr. David Redfield, one of the club ad- visors, and the officers engage in an electrostatic demonstration.
