Members gained valuable knowledge of the biological sciences through a variety of field trips taken by the club. Included were a day at the coast, Gold Lake, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, an afternoon at the Mouse House, the animal laboratory on the University of Oregon campus, and a tour of the University Museum of Natural History. 75

Chemistry Club Strange and permeating odors drifting out of Room 228 after school often meant that members of Chemistry Club were hard at work on their individual research projects. Adviser john Hale and President Greg Bullard aided students with their projects at weekly meetings. Spending most of their time in the laboratory, mem- bers restricted other club functions to one field trip to the University of Oregon chemistry laboratories. Here students in- spected the equipment and gained first- hand information from lab personnel. The club helped increase student interest in chemistry and gave members an oppor- tunity to use school science facilities. Physics Club Involved experiments on wave behavior, echoes, vacuums, and work with an os- cilloscope were conducted by members of the Physics Club under the direction of President Mike Stronach and Adviser Dr. Dirk Ten Brinke. Meeting once a week, the boys discussed problems which they encountered in their research experiments. Activities included a series of films on modern aeronautics and metallurgy, a lec- ture by a University of Oregon professor, and a field trip to the Linfield College Science Open House.

Ski Club Braving record high snowfalls and roads which had progressed from the pothole to the trench stage, members of the Ski Club made trips to Willamette Pass nearly every week during the winter months. Despite the often icy highways, slopes were in ex- cellent condition and the skiers turned out in full force. At the monthly meetings, presided over by President Scott Perkins and Col. Emory Bruns, the adviser, ski- ing films were shown and future trips were planned. The club-sponsored fashion show in the fall provided entertainment following the initiation of new members. The year was highlighted by an overnight trip in April to Mount Bachelor near Bend. Ealing lunch on the slopes al Sun Valley. Lusl-minute adiuslmenls. Slacking skis. .
