One of our greatest heritages is the literature of our Eng- lish language. It is here that all things We hold dear and valuable are preservedg it is here that We will continue to influence the world of action as long as mankind has the desire for progress.

An insatiable thirst for first-hand We Live By , 1 knowledge, an uncompromising demand for exactness, a rev- erence for method--these characterize the scientist. The quick glimpse of this vast universe which is given to all Lakewood students at one time or another is meant to give the majority of us some concept of what we are dealing I. with in our contacts with other bits of matter, animate or ' inanimate.

The science department aims to provide this background to those who will represent the community of Lakewood in a rapidly pro- ! gressing world.
