Biology dealt with the science of lite, where the study ot plants, insects, microscopic animals, and mammals was emphasized. Advanced Biology experimented in raising plants in various solutions, injecting mice with hormones, and studying the anatomy ot a cat. Senior Science widened the scope of knowledge by ex- amination ot principles taught in a general science course. Chemistry students probed the mysteries of the com- position ot inorganic substances. Through text material, laboratory experiments, and individual projects they found the answers to their questions. Physics taught theories ot science, especially designed for students who desire to continue their education in the sciences. Physics students undertook various experiments through- out the year. 17 Clayton Salk, B.S. Michigan State University Biology Senior Science Arnold VanZanten and Clark Radewan respectively, look over one of the interesting experiments in their physics class.

Pietsch, B.A. University of Illinois Plane Geometry American Government Nlathematies Department The study ot mathematics required students to reason in a logical manner and called for intensive quality ot thinking. This subject with its wide scope of material pre- sented a challenge to the students and stimulated their intelligence. Students who wished to probe deeply and accept these challenges were given excellent opportunities in advanced courses oi algebra, geometry, and trigonom- etry. General and business mathematics courses were also offered to aid in problems and situations ot everyday living. Mr. Stout carefully explained the steps of a problem to trigonometry students. 16

Metal shop classes furnished practical ex- periences in the handling of tools. The boys learned how to repair their cars and to con- struct useful items from metal, Students developed creative ability in woodworking classes, as they constructed objects as coffee tables, bureaus, lamps, bowls, and racks. Drafting classes introduced students to the techniques in architecture and design. 18
