JAMES MARBERRY Mathematics B.S. Degree, Arkansas Polytechnic College Mr. Marberry explains the many useiul functions of the slide rule to Pat Costello, Don Cotten and Ierry Herbert, members ot his advanced algebra class. MARBERRY STRESSES MATH FUNDAMENTALS Iackie Iones copies an equa- tion dictated by Terry Rieder for the algebra I class to solve. Mr. lim Marberry, instructor of five math classes and one science class, strives to instill within the student a wide and varied understanding of the basic fundamentals and processes of practical mathematics. General mathematics teaches an overall know- ledge of the basic rudiments of math, algebra and some geometry, in preparation for higher mathe- matics courses. In advanced algebra, plane geometry and trigonometry, the student is prepared for college engineering courses and for specialized fields. More emphasis should be put on the mathe- matics and sciences in order to adjust a young per- son for this atomic and continually changing wor1d, Mr. Marberry stated. Iody Eakins follows Dick Miller's proof oi a geometric theorem as Sharon Sutton watches.
