Science Department MARY OSBORN - MARIE MOTT PHYSICS Any sixth period we, the Seniors and Juniors of the 1941-42 Physics Class, may be found in Room 2, studying with furrowed brow, while Mr. Huth watches over us with a stern gaze and eagle eye. If Dot Dutton were to throw a spitball at E. P. Skelding, the professor would be sure to catch her. When exam time rolls around Jane Liddell seems to know more about femmes faces than the physics problems. If Lizzie would watch Bill's decimal point more carefully she might receive an A+ instead of just an A. Bates has been doing better work now that she has been separated from Enid. Who's the teacher? When Marilyn gets stumped she goes to Mr. Huth. When Mr. Huth gets stumped he goes to Rossie. Why doesn't Flossie take advantage of the fact that she is sitting next to Laurel? We know that we would. Where therels Hamblen there's an argument. Where there's an argument there's Hamblen. As for Cassy, nuff sed! Considering who sits in back of Mary Cneed we elucidate?J it's no wonder Mr. Huth sees more of the back of her than the front. If the rest aren't mentioned CHills and Ber- nardb it's because they are so quiet we forget they are there. Do you wonder that Mr. Huth will heave a sigh of relief when June rolls around? Commercial Department Certificates for taking shorthand at sixty words a minute were awarded to: Jeannette Strachan, Albena Adams, Anna Makowski, and Leona McManus. Albena Adams was the only member of the class to receive an award for typing at the rate of seventy words a minute. This year there were only five members in the Office Practice Class, and in behalf of the class, I would like to say we certainly had plenty to do. ALBENA ADAMS, '42 Ik Ik Pk Ill if CONSUMERS' SCIENCE Our class has been studying acids and bases. Many experiments have been tried and have come out successfully. Now we are experiment- ing on two certain Junior boys, namely Wyman and Mesheau. Is Mesheau as acid, as Wyman is base? Will THIS experiment be successful? The whole school and faculty are anxiously awaiting the results. as is The Shipbuilder Social Studies Social Studies under the direction of Mr. Knowlton takes up the study of the history, cus- toms, government, and geographical outlooks of the peoples of the world. The Seventh Grade is studying the develop- ment of government in Europe as well as in our own country. Units are given to the class to be completed in a given time. Oral discussions and tests are held each week. The Eighth Grade studies the civilization of today and yesterday of the whole world as it is changing today. Units are also taken up in this class. The unit work trains the mind to con- dense material from an encyclopedia or other reference book into a complete and concise re- port. It not only trains the mind, but also gives the pupils a chance to learn how to use the li- brary and to handle reference books. Pupils contribute to class discussion with oral reports on current events and special topics. The Ninth Grade, studying Civics learns how the local cities and towns are protected and gov- erned. Current events and discussions are held each week. The Tenth Grade studies World History under Mr. Rogean. Their course takes them back to early ages. The Juniors and a few Seniors are learning about the government of the United States. During each term each person has to give an oral report. It seems that the Junior Class can recite the Constitution backwards and forwards. Under Mr. Knowlton's guidance, we will cer- tainly be prepared for the future in our govern- ment.
