The complicated world of math Signs and symbols, negative and positive numbers, square numbers, and unknowns are just a few of the numerical terms dealt with in the advanced algebra classes. Taken in the third or fourth year of the study of high school mathematics, the advanced course is designed to stimulate the student ' s mind toward the subject and encourage further a study of mathemati cs. Sue Ditt- man appears to have little trouble in the mastering of a typical ad¬ vanced algebra problem. High up in the study of mathematics, these trigonometry boys attack an impressive looking trigonometry problem with zest. Studying of trigonometry is the final step in mathematical preparation for college. Shown here, Jerry Hall demonstrates the opera¬ tion of a slide rule to Jim Lorenzen while Jon Zachman refers to the book for additional help.

General science classes, the starting of science study in the upper grades, open many new doors to Rogers ' entering fresh¬ men. Harvey Soule follows the spark on high voltage transform¬ er for Sharon Nopierolo, an¬ other student of the novice science course. It was quite on event when biolo¬ gists discovered that the big green tomato hornworm could fly 35 miles per hour os on adult sphinx moth. They were thrilled, too, when they found that the golden plover, o relative of the kildeer, flew 8,000 miles twice each year during its migration. These future biologists, shown here learning the structure of the omebo, now study discoveries of other scientists, but soon will be making important discoveries of their own. Senior science, technically known os physiology, is the study of the human body and its core. As o cop to their scientific stud¬ ies, senior students learn about themselves, study the proper core of their body, and devote con¬ siderable time and attention to various aspects of social vices affecting their health.

Learning procedures... Ready, begin; asdf jkl; asdf jkl; That was a familiar beginning and result in the opening weeks of typing class. Later on the students learned to improve their fingering, speed, and accuracy with emphasis on correct procedure in business typing stressed in the second semester. business. Business of business is often complicated — Judy Tussing can testify to that, as she learns the operation of the adding ma¬ chine. Ruth Rothlisberger makes use of a paper cutter with the aid of Barbara Mansfield who checks the paper ' s measurements. One of the important functions of the business department, in addition to the teaching of business procedures, is the reproducing of various tests and impor¬ tant papers for other departments. Two Marilyn ' s (Ladd inspecting the finished copy and Anderson operating the ma¬ chine itself) use the ditto machine as Diane McComesky types a stencil.
