BRUCE ANDERSON HELEN ANDERSON History Government German Club CULLEN CASE JACK CODER History Economics “Balderdash!” exclaims Mr. Jack Coder with a crash of his fist on the lecturn. His lively lectures and emphatic gestures lend the popular “Coder touch” to economics, covering material largely outside the textbook. U.S. History Inspires Democratic Ideals JACK DYE ROY DEVINNEY GEORGE DODD Government History Biology Basketball The accepted theory that past events continually influence the present makes the social science depart- ment one of great importance. Here sophomores learn the roots of eminent world problems, tracing civiliza- tion from the ancient Egyptians and Orientals to to- day’s complex society. Juniors concentrate their study on American history from its discovery to the present. Tenth and eleventh grade honors classes offer greater challenge to qualified students. Government, covering the state and national orga- nization plus a brief study of Communism, is required of seniors. For interested students economics and geog- raphy are also offered.

“Don ' t be afraid. It could only explode,” jokingly warns Miss Delores Hulse as she in- spects the apparatus of an amateur Einstein, about to produce hydrogen gas, while members of the class watch. JACK MILLER History Chem-Study Complements Science Courses In the present age of science and space the MHS sci- ence departme nt has assumed the task of acquainting its students with the wonderful world around them and the physical laws that govern their lives. In addition to the three lab courses — biology, chem- istry, and physics — a general science program is of- fered. Newest addition to the curricula is chem-study, a highly concentrative chemistry class, conducted by Mr. Paul Holm. To meet the demands of increased enrollment, two new science teachers, Mr. George Dodd and Mr. Har- vard Schmidt, joined the faculty, and a classroom was converted to an additional biology lab.
