NATIVE PEORIA TEACHERS NUMBER 17 In our scientific world of constant change and new inventions there is an ever-increasing need for trained scientists. This new impetus toward more science is guite visible in the increasing numbers of Limestone students enrolled in courses in chemistry and physics. General Science provides an introduction to the vari- ety of scientific areas. Lynn Swango. Frank Bailey, Kenneth Oswald Dissecting frogs, collecting insects and leaves, and learning how our bodies function is a familiar part of our study of Biology. In our labs, surrounded by some of the many wonders of nature, we begin our study of Biological science which helps us to understand the world in which we live, and paves the way to advanced study in this field. Kenneth Storm, Richard Ingram Today with added emphasis on science and math, the role of the mathematics department is rapidly in- creasing in importance. Although vital in the study of science, mathematics is something everyone uses throughout the years. Mathematics students have and will achieve success under the supervision of their capable teachers. James Adams. Laird Carter. Donald Bangert. Seated: Grace Madsei

20 WOMEN AND 24 MEN TEACH AT LCHS With the coming of the space age educators the world over proclaim the need for knowledge of lan- guages other than our own. We at Limestone are fortunate in having two fine language teachers to help us master Latin and Spanish. These languages not only broaden our knowledge but help us to better under- stand our world neighbors. Helen Schmidt. Jack Clinton In our hustle and bustle world it’s imperative that one make himself clearly understood. To do this it is necessary to keep abreast of current events, which we do by frequenting the library- By doing this, one can broaden his vocabulary and enhance his speech. There- fore, it can be said that speech and the library go hand in hand. Bernadine Moekor, Patricia Wagnor, Lois Mason. Seated: Elaine Sommerfield As always, and even more so today, there is a demand for a working knowledge of the English lan- guage. Who else but our own English teachers could make our English so practical and useful? With their help we not only learn to use our language correctly, but through literature we get a better understanding of the past and present. 10 Gloria Schmidt. Mary Margarot Walker.

FACULTY BOASTS 20 MASTER’S DEGREES Erma Steelo, Edward Herzog. Fritz Millard Another type of entertainment at L.C.H.S. is music. Mrs. Krumpe has worked hard with the choir and in organizing the Rocketts and Rocketeers, who have done a great job in presenting some very nice pro- grams. Mr. Morse, our band director, has done equally well his part in preparing for assemblies, halftime en- tertainment, and organizing a dance band. With the help of our social science teachers, we students have a better understanding of our society, our government, and the world around us. We learn these good traits by class discussions, field trips, and movies. This makes the class understand and enjoy the time they spend in the social science classrooms a lot better. Elizabeth Krumpe. William Morse Our commerce department provides training for many of our students which enables them to obtain positions in the business world. Typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and office machines taught in well- equipped classrooms by qualified teachers givo our students the background they need to assume their role as office personnel.
