A., Emory University Science Students Win State Honors The Science Fair was the main project of the Science Department this year. Each student taking a scientific sub- ject was required to enter a project. From these projects, a first, second and third place prize was given for each division of science, and the winning projects were sent to the state Science Fair in Athens, Georgia. Two of our students won first and second place, and four students won honorable mention in the state. The exhibits were of the highest caliber, and without the help of our teachers, we could not have represented our school so successfully. Yes, these teachers who have guided and encouraged us are deserving of our highest praise. L . jg le i 5. A . fi S E' .,-.','ii Z , ,ix g Wm! I4 ' Ay ir X I V ,f Q.

We'll admit that these subjects are pretty hard, but under the capable supervision of our teachers, we always managed to learn lots. Several of us represented Marietta High on television. We learned much interesting and valuable information about math, and we shall never forget this experience. Since almost a third of the College Entrance Examination consists of math problems, these subjects will enable us to be better prepared for college. Mrs. John Vickrey. Chairman A.

A., University of Alabama fi,-'fb Qt' 'S NNW ' .L .psig Social Studies In the Social Studies Department, business law, vocational guidance, American history, world history, and economic geography are taught. In business law, we discuss politics and the method of handling elections. This is so interesting that many of us have decided we would like to become lawyers or to be active in politics. World history and American history is the story of the beginning of civilization up to the present time. We have found out that thls information is con- nected with many of our other subjects, which proves very helpful. Mrs. Bob McPherson B. S., University of Georgia NIU! French Johnson Bill Glenn B.
