Try It in Science You Might Like It 1. Tasting Party? Yes, and right in biology class. Paul Garcia was not too sure about that limburger as he had to smell it as he ate it. Brenda Braidlow and Cindy Frank showed mixed emotions as they waited their turn to experience the mold-bacteria lesson in cheese-mak- ing. 2. Marshal Koval in Chem I class watched instruc- tor Bill Brent demonstrate an absolute pressure device. Other students are Brian Craig and Roger Harris. Mr. Brent sponsored ACE Club. 3. Mr. Don Priest used his pointer and the blackboard illustrations to find the side of a triangle by using the law of sines. He taught phys- ics, as well as calculus and trigonometry. 4. Eddie Sar- och, with the help of science instructor Charles Gar- nett, worked with an open end magnometer, which measures the pressure of gas. This was Mr. Garnett's first teaching year at RHS. 5. Biology I and Biology II made up Mr. Harry Harme's science program. He also sponsored Future Medics of America. First-hand involvement in experiments continued to attract students to science this year. Since Rolla is scientifically oriented due to the location of UMR here, many stu- dents enrolled in selected college classes during their senior year.

Mrs. Bea Lampert han- dled psychology, sociology and world history. Headlines Today History Tomorrow Everyone takes it, at least for two years. So it required a crew of social studies teachers to dispense the ele- ments of history, sociology, psychol- ogy and allied fields to several hun- dred students. Increased enrollment added to the crowd. 26 • Social Studies
