Postulates, theorems confuse math student By Patricia Houston The first fevv weeks of geometry were a breeze to me. I learned geometric figures and their parts. One of the figures I studied was the circle with its diameter, chords and radii. Then l proceeded on to the truth tables, induction, deduction and intuition. At this point my head was going around in circles. After the truth tables I went on to proofs, which included theorems, postulates and corollaries. These really posed a problem. Do you use theorem 3-5 or is it 5-3? On the other hand it might be postulate 6 or corollary 4. No one knew for sure, except Sister Mary lVlichaelette. Geometry took a great deal of concentration, l admit, but it vvas the most challenging subject I encountered. Kathleen Shinn, Kathleen Sprunk, Joan Hayes and Mary Knapik concentrate on Math IV functions. Athletic Moderator Sister M. Michaelette teaches math. Algebra I students puzzle over a test on factoring. Freshman Adviser Sister M. Andrae teaches religion, English, and math. Stella Tscholl works a problem with division of radicals. Judy Decke man explains to Patricia Trenshek and Carol Nusbaum how to prove a triangle congruent. Elementary algebra students Deborah Mills and Marcia Travis work with the number line. W u - 'I x...

Home Arts includes grooming, dietetics By Mary Chris Z ycho wicz Guided by Sister Mary Albertus, students of Christian Family Living developed a family-like spirit in class through plays, group presentations and debates. At Christmas time each member of the class brought in a gift of either food, clothing, soap or a game. All this was divided and packed and delivered to needy families in the city. By Marian Chronister ln Foods class, Sister Mary Gregory turned her girls into future efficient, homemakers not only by teaching foods preparation but also by giving the biological theory behind them. Knowing the process and the nutrition value helped us to understand why a variety of foods is essential in our daily diet. By Pamela Sackett The Clothing class is beneficial both for those who have acquired the skill and for beginners. Sister Mary Claranne helped me through initial difficulties I had after putting in a hem with a sewing machine and accidently cutting off so much of my skirt that the length measured nine inches before hemming. ln spite of my mistakes, l learned sewing, good grooming, and much about fabrics. Margaret Kennedy adds sugar while Mary Beth Stankey stirs the grape jelly. Menus for a week are being planned by Cynthia Wille, Theresa Riebe and Angela Przyojski. Sister M. Gregory instructs her foods class on how to plan a balanced meal. Sister M. Claranne examines the fabric in a completed jumper. Mary Christine Zychowicz demonstrates the proper way to hold a baby as taught by nurse, Mrs. Anne Zygula. Ripping stitches is one of the steps Deborah Lou Meyer uses in learning to insert a zipper. -3 gf' gh-- N I,-'f L fix,
