MR. ROBERT P. BROCKMAN MR LLOYD F DOBYNS Americans, to be good citizens, should know the history of their nation, the workings of our government today, and the problems facing this government. In our eighth grade American history class, we followed the pilgrims to the new world and watched them establish their colonies. We envied the frontiersman and his family and dreamed of Hroughing it in a covered wagon with new life ahead and the lndians on either sidel A trip to Madison highlighted our study of government in ninth grade citizenship, ln this class, we followed a bill through the legislature, just be- ginning to realize the complexities of operating a nation efficiently. World history gave us countless pictures of scenes from the past and the opportunity to use Shepherd's Historical Atlas--if we got to the library before the general rush. Notes from that course showed one word which was spelled in more ways than any other--bourgeoisie! A more detailed study of the evolution of Democracy came in American history, We studied everything from the Homestead Act to first hand accounts of various World War ll naval engage- ments. Where does our money come from? When should I get married? These questions show the wide range of subject matter in social problems. We analyzed our Constitution and evaluated our government. Geography class gave us a thorough picture of the physical features of the earth. We chose our ideal climate and relearned the art of salt-flour map-making. Therefore it is evident that the social studies department gave a complete, over-all picture of the physical and economic features of the entire earth. MR. DENNIS MAIR MR. RALPH SCHINSKI MR. LLOYD C.

Each school, each floor, each department, and each classroom has an atmosphere all its own. Looking over the subjects included in the sci- ence department, we get mental images which are automatically connected with these classes. From general science, we remember our ama- teur weather forecasting and weekly science topics. Open-book tests were the big treat in that classl Biology brought out the true attitude of the girls toward harmless dead animals. Lab turned into q chaos the first day with the girls pleading, Please, Mr, Schuchart, don't make me touch that worm, and the boys singing. l've got you under the skin. These same amateur scientists took over in chemistry lab the following year. Here they ad- justed their Bunsen Burners and slyly dumped for- bidden compounds together in the hope of causing o bit of excitement. Physics class offered the opportunity to spend a little money--on 52.50 broken thermometers. Why was that class so popular? Maybe it was the boy to girl r0fiO--20 to ll H2504 plus NaCl yields what? Jan Wieting and Bob Davis try to find out as they brew up a concoction of sul phuric acid and table salt.
