Dvorscholr, M.Ed. Adviser, Biology Club From Adam to Atom! Our four years of scientific study lead us from the simplicity of primitive plant and animal life to the intricacy of advanced physics and chemistry. General Science sketched the funda- mentals of the world about us. Biology increased our scientific experience by adding the rudiments of Botany and Zoology to our knowledge, while Physics etched in the material world. Chemistry took us from al (aluminum) to zn (zinc) in an unforgettable study of the elements. Thus, under the able instruction of Mr. Tapley and his excellent staff, the mysteries of the world in which we live have unfolded on our canvas. 15 Leo W. Klein, A.B.

Counselor Freshman, Sophomore Boys Arthur A. Wolpin B.S., LL.B. Committees comprised of Miss Oksen's senior historians delve into problems of national importance. The painting of World History has never been completed. The glow of tomorrow's destiny con- stantly brightens the faint hue of yesterday. We hove been taught by the Social Studies Department how to analyze the shadows of the past so that we may wisely contribute to the Democracy of our country. After having studied the problems of Early European and American History, we appre- ciate the value of peace. Our citizenship classes stressed the important role that the Federal and State government, as well as every individual, must play in its achievement. Now we must apply our brushes to the page in history on which we will represent the citizens of today's America. 17
