This section of the ground crew, the Science and Mathematics Department, teaches conditionally elective courses which may be directly connected with aviation itself. Surely such courses as Geometry, Physics, and Advanced Math, have a definite place in a course in Aeronautics.

He is ably assisted by Miss Gensch, who teaches three classes of Algebra in addition to two in General Science.
