Advanced biology classes worked extensively with radiation checking daily to determine the amount of fallout in the atmosphere. BELOW: Science enthusiast Gary Hauch demonstrates exact measuring and weight calculating which are necessary in all chemistry experiments.

Mike Fanberg seems to be having a good time as he works to con struct a geometric design with needle and thread for math class. 'WNW 'AS , CHECKING TO SEE that his map coincides with the actual map of the United States, is John Manecke, MHS sophomore. Students in U.S. history courses drew maps to correspond to their courses of study. An individual survey of all the U.S. presidents was included in the study of the formation of the government.

HEM sTudy, a new approach To chemisTry, was inTro- duced inTo The curriculum This year. MHS is one of seven high schools in MinnesoTo and The only one ouTside The Twin CiTy area To offer The course, which is equal To college level work. The CHEM sTudy work aT MankoTo high was used in only Two of The Tive classes, wiTh The remaining Three classes di- vided inTo Two groups, one of which was homogeneous. Karl Adberg, chemisTry insTrucTor, aTTended an insTiTuTe GT Horvey Mudd college, CIaremonT, Calif., IasT summer where The course was compleTeIy rewriTTen from daTa compiled during The TirsT Trial year. His CHEM sTudy closses were com- posed mdinly of loboraTory observaTion work wiTh The de- scripTive meThod cuT To a minimum in speciol secTions. Homogeneously grouped biology classes began This yecir Tor The purpose of placing sTudenTs of like abiIiTy TogeTher. There were Three main TacTors which were considered when placing The sTudenTs in These TirsT yegr classes. This meThod made possible grec1Ter educaTionaI opporTuniTies. DEMONSTRATING FREE FALL and motion down an incline are seniors Dave Dawe and Curl Siocling.
