Parker Shaun Santo Warren Strickland Life Science Physical Science Department Chairman Science Club sponsor The mysteries of the world are silent-patiently waiting for our wits to grow stronger, said a sign posted in the science wing. The reasons that strapless evening gowns stay up is only one of the problems solved in physics. Although phys- ics is stated as an exact science, it applies principles to obvious facts to make them understandable. Chemistry and the periodic chart of the elements gives students answers to the reasons for the earth. Stu- dents build gradually the knowledge that will sustain them throughout the year. Casual interest in exploding experi- ments is unheard of in such classes. The reasons for minor explosions are thoroughly investigated. Chemistry com- bines with research to better the world. Biology is the basis for life and an interest in why leaves are green is cultivated in class. Finding, in minia- ture, all the parts necessary for life makes the class vitally interesting. Everyday phenomena are explained in physical sci- ence classes. Howto tell that the earth is traveling around the sun and not vice versa is only one principle shown. Any science can fulfill a person's desire to know specific things about the earth-it is only necessary to isolate the idea from the rest of the world principles. 198 ' . 3 A if sr . - . fss,s.,W.4- f .. Dangling arms signifying that an obiect was thrown was one way physi- cal science students Bill Navarrette and Carla Blanco viewed, at work, the principles they learned. The distance an obiect will fall on the earth in l second is about 16 feet. As the time is increased to 2 seconds, the distance is doubled. Practical experience is vital according to Mr. Strickland. Many seniors took the course their final year because they had failed to set up the class in their iunior year. Physical science helped students satisfy the two years of science required. Mr. Strickland, at left, has had his book, Investigations in Physical Science, reprinted four times.
