Offered for the first time this year, the one semester course encouraged a general appreciation of the principles of aviation, and also prepared stu- dents who would possibly take the Aviation Adminis- tration written examination. The class, taught by Mr. Charles Hatter, also planned field trips to local air- plane manufacturers, the Wichita Municipal Airport, and the Weather Bureau. The science department will benefit from a new bio- logical science room, storeroom, and office in the new wing.

Math Classes Crowded; Mrs. W Bozarth. M.A Dept. Staff Increased Mathematics 1 Mrs. Wilma Bozarth grades daily papers of her Algebra I class while students take a test. Classes arc conducted at Curtis due to overcrowded conditions at Southeast. Mr R Herdt. B.S. Mathematics Pep Club Crowded conditions were evident in the mathemat- ics department as most classes swelled to approxi- mately thirty-five students. Three Algebra II classes were added to the curriculum in order to handle the fluctuating number of math students. Increasing the number of math teachers last year from seven to this year's eight. Mr. Robert Herdt and Mr. Dennis Sherman joined the department staff. During their years in high school, all students took at least one course in mathematics, as one unit of math was required for graduation. Since most col- leges demand two or more units of credit, equations and theorems became familiar topics of conversation. Students took advantage of business mathematics, principles of mathematics, triginometry. and analytic geometry classes, and several students commuted from Southeast to East High School for calculus courses which were not offered at Southeast.

 Man’s Behavior; Govt. Examined By Students Investigating the history of Mankind and his present mode of behavior was the primary objective of the many Southeast students who enrolled in Social Stud- ies classes this year. Various courses which were available ranged from a study of Man through the ages to the examination of current events. Juniors were required to take U. S. His- tory and Government was a requisite for seniors: both were team-teaching classes. In team-teaching, the class contained 100 students, and three teachers ro- tated as instructor of the course.
