The job of the guidance department was to cope with these in a sympathetic and personal manner. Conferences were arranged on matters which were to concem our future. Arrangement ofsuitable sched- ules was necessary the first year, but ques- tions popped up now and then. College counseling was an important part of the guidance department. Mrs. Macdonald was the one, from whom to borrow catalogues, to arrange conferences with college representatives, and from whom to get advice on requirements. Students were well served by our four advisors. This year a new method was started, an advisor was to take a class through its three years. lt was hoped, that by knowing the student better, that guid- ance could be more efficient. Julia C.

SCIENCE - mudern power A department in the spotlight in this fast- moving technological world, the science de- partment offered comprehensive courses in the fields of biology, chemistry, and physics, Experiments, reports, and first-hand obser- vations kept students and faculty on theirtoes. Formaldehyde or burning sulphur made one aware of the nearness of a lab, or a compli- cated formulae on a blackboard informed a person that he was in a physics class. From soph biology to senior physics, the science department did an interesting job. Sophomore amoeba hunters Betty Bell, John Weiss, Roberta McCleary, Douglas Kruse, Mary Warren, and Pat Johnson kept the 'critters' in focus. Barbara Lewis, Ted Schiek, Stanford Kline, Gayle Bankard worked in the physics lab. r' f.
