Science Department Gets New Physics Equipment New i-quipmeiit was an added feature of the Science Department this year. Physics classes received new spring balances and weights which were quite useful in experiments concerning tension problems and experiments with pendalums. Working with the slide rule also characterized the physics classes. The biology and chemistry classes worked with fruit flies. The Biology II classes also experimented with chickens and frogs. They injected male hormones of the chickens and frogs into the female chickens and frogs, and recorded the results after three weeks. Trips to the bay and Padre Island were prevalent among the marine science classes. Building aquariums also was a project under- taken by them each year.
