Through his experiences in General Science, Biology, perhaps EarTh Science, Physical Science or Physics, and Then ChemisTry, The sTudenT has realized The imporTanT role science has already played in The pasT and will conTinue To play in The TuTure. WiTh The arrival oT earTh saTelliTes and roclceTs To The moon, The sTudenT and TuTure scienTisT Tind a new Tield oT sTudy awaiTing Them.

Under The supervision oT Mr. MorTimer SchulTz, sTudenTs have received valuable Training in The use oT scienTiTic rnaTerials. Learning To seT up experimenTs is very imporTanT To Those who plan a career in science. ScienTiTic meThods are pracTicedg consTrucTive work is encouraged. STudenTs on Lab Service Squad geT experience in working as a group in a scienTiTic manner. This has proven a valuable asseT Tor Those who Tind Themselves enTering The vasT world oT science. To accommodaTe The growing inTeresT oT sTudenTs in The Tield OT science, a new group has been Tormed, The Advanced Physics Club. Under The guidance oT Mr. l-lerberT Thier, The sTudenTs Taclcled problems ThaT are noT on The ordinary physics curriculum. The group Tollowed The individual inTeresTs oT each member. Discussions ranging Trom color Television To SpuTnil4 were held, and proiecTs were planned and carried ouT. The Advanced Physics club has been noT only an ouTgrowTh oT physics as TaughT in school, buT also a source OT preparaTion Tor Those sTudenTs who plan To embark on a scienTiTic career. advanced physics class - l '-'i' 'T i , '
