Experiments in Numbers E = mc2? Albert Einstein said that?” “We’ll start dissecting frogs tomor- row. and This Friday, we'll have a test over Chapter 6. —were sentences that brought thoughts of bewilderment, nausea, and fear to the minds of many students in the science courses. Advanced biology, taught by Mr. Gutz- willer, took a field trip to Eli Lilly. Most students found it interesting and a chance to get away from the usual grind of class work. What’s that smell? It smells like rot- ten eggs. Whenever you heard this coming from the mouths of our students everyone knew the chemistry class was up to another one of their experiments. Do you understand this? I don’t. was something that might have been heard from a first year algebra student while he or she tried to do his or her homework. Another famous line was “x + 8x + 15=(x + 3)(x+5). So (x + 3)(x + 5) = 0. What’s that, some kind of foreign language? In addition to working math prob- lems, students learned to enjoy such things, as, how to fill out income tax forms and how to construct art with a compass. Teachers, Mr. White, Mrs. Hall and Mr. Horton decided it would be best to stick close to the basics this year. (pg.22) TOP: Fetus pigs aren’t really that bad! comments Billie Jo Kraus.

Click! Clack! Snip! Snap! What do you think of when someone says the word secretary? Someone who polishes her nails a lot and sits on the boss's lap? Well, this is not so, a secre- tary is very hard working and a worth- while worker. In our business courses this fact is learned right away. A good secretary is skilled in typing and shorthand, both of which are offered here along with accounting, business math, general business, and secretarial skills. Other jobs that business majors can get are typing clerks, accounting clerks, office workers and bakers. Students worked hard on projects and had fun doing them. Business is just one department that isn't as easy as it looks. What’s this? A person walking down the hall peeking into rooms usually doesn’t see two students being pro- nounced man and wife.But it was possi- ble in Home and Family. Well, this and many other activities, such as: field trips to the Versailles Court House, observ- ing younger children at the grade school, and looking for apartments were a few things done in order to pre- pare our students for the family life. And how many things can you recall walking down the hall talking to your best friend when you were suddenly interrupted by a tantalizing aroma drift- ing out of the home economics room? You picture in your mind brownies bak- ing in an oven and your mouth began to water. It was hard for you to believe that some seventh or eighth grader could cook so well. A few nice sounds such as the hum of sewing machines and the chatter of busy mouths could be heard in the next room. But one of the most dishearten- ing and discouraging sounds that could be heard from time to time by Mrs. Fritch or Mrs. Lamb were the 9 words . . . Looks like you'll have to rip it out again!
