Students Discover Their Willis OHon Underlying the four science courses was a common objective, greater appreciation and understanding of the physical world. In physical science. Freshmen studied the properties of acids and salts and the six simple machines as part of a basic introduction to chemistry and physics. The odor of formaldehyde became all too familiar as biology students dissected specimens to better understand the body systems and their functions. Chemistry students cautiously conducted experiments involving potent acids and solutions, obtaining results that were helpful in their investigation of the periodic table, the nature of chemical reactions and the structure of molecules. Mr. Paul Peterson, the new chemistry and physics teacher, directed physics students in their study of motion, optics, mechanics and electricity. In each course, the ability to reason inductively was developed by drawing individual conclusions from experimental data. Wendell Carlson . . . Biology. Physical Education . . .
