Scientists Prove Laws To be sure, Archimedes started something when he discovered the principle of buoyancy; Galileo had the right idea about telescopes; and Sir Isaac Newton was absolutely correct in matters pertaining to gravitation; to prove their theories Roosevelt High School scientists have been working steadily since their club was organized in 1937. m . uirieh, Ncwcii. l. Anderton, Reber Any student who has studied a science in senior high school and is interested in scientific developments is eligible for membership. The club meets every other Wednesday with Mr. Ulrich, noted demonstrator with liquid air, as the adviser. The club’s programs consist of reports, papers, and scientific demonstrations; occasionally a weiner roast is combined with an astrological jaunt to view the heavenly bodies with a telescope. Each year the science department presents a science trophy to the student who has been active in the club and also in two sciences. This year's recipient was Paul Rebers. Elected for the fall term as officers were Roger Lund, president; Donald Anderson, vice-president; and Margaret Stevens, secretary-treasurer. For the spring term, officers are Paul Rebers, president; Byron Bradley, vice-president; and Margaret Stevens, secretary-treasurer. sSTdberl VounJauAt a,?,T U'w W . Steven Newell. Row 2-RobefU S.

News W hile It's News Since its organization in 1923, the Roosevelt Standard has presented to the school body the problems and achievements of the students and faculty. For thirteen successive years the paper, under the advisership of Mr. LeRoy Nielsen, has received an All American rating, or its equivalent. To become a member of the staff, a student must not only show superior work in news one, but be approved by the faculty adviser and editors. Outstanding journalistic students may apply for membership in Quill and Scroll. Last fall a plan requiring every one in school to take the paper was approved by the student body. The staff works every fourth period, as well as before and after school to publish 3,000 copies of the Standard each week. Fall editors were Donald Larson, editor-in-chief; Betty Kammeier, associate editor; John Mulvahill, news editor; Edward Wicklund, sports editor; and Mary Pearson, lit-, erary editor. Editors for the spring term are John Mulvahill and Betty Kammeier, co-editors-in-chief; Bob Harris, sports editor; and Arthur Davo, literary editor. Kammeier. Burtell. W,lton. Reetr Mulvahill.
