Participants were required to construct projects significant to the science they were studying. Blue, red or white ribbons, or certificates of merit rewarded many hours of intensive work, research, and sup- plementary study on the part of the contestants. Such activities implimcnt the basic science course and increase interest in that particular branch of science. ane Kennedx s blue ribbon indicated the judges' approxal of her weather indicator.

Josephine Veacler, Pat Madine and Helen Englert are fascinated by the process of osmosis. Exploring the unknown is the work of the scientist. In freshman year exploration begins with general science. Students acquire a gen- eral knowledge of scientific principles and learn that awareness is the key to knowledge. Biol- ogy, the sophomores! dilemma, specializes in the exploration of the process of growth. Here the mysteries of the plant and animal world are unfolded before the student.

Carol Daly, Monica Murphy, Ida Nlinchella, Dominica Cinquegrana, Mary atpeter Meany watch Gloria Valenti and Mary Ann Rella conduct an experiment in Earth Science. As juniors, we explore the vastness of physio- graphy while endeavoring to conquer the diffi- culties encountered in studying Earth Science. Vtle strive to understand the baffling mysteries of the earth before undertaking the study.of Chemistry. Seniors attempt to simplify the com- plexities of Chemistry by preparing elements in the lab. Chemical equations and classroom exer- cises afford a new challenge. Is this the barrage of eyes that a teacher faces constantly?
