Mathematics stressed good groundwork in concepts, logicand clear thinking. I knew today would fee Excedrin headache number c2 =Va2 + b2 , s gfes Sr. Rose. Since there are so many ways to solve this equation, why can't I find one? wonders Amy Norek. These are supposed to be the future mathematical genuises of America? de- liberates Miss Pribish. Equations, signs, and symbols comprised the mysterious world of the math student. Not only was the student expected to accurately manipulate such devices but also he was supposed to exhibit sound thought and reasoning throughout the process. Algebra I started freshman minds whirling. Soph- omores whipped out their trusty compasses, pro- tractors, and rulers for geometry and found their studies in optical illusions challenged the old standard seeing is believing. Algebra II stimu- lated the brains of many juniors as seniors delved into a wide diversity of math phases such as logic, logarithmic functions, and calculus. Despite the perennial fear of the subject, a good groundwork in mathematical concepts was stressed as an essential preparation for life in this scientific, modern world. 26 Just remember, 2 + 2 may equal 3,4,5, 6,7 ... says Mrs. Potthoff to herself.

Social Science provided a coherent study of world affairs % Since a clear understanding of our social, eco- nomic, and political problems was never more necessary than at the present time, social science has come to occupy a prominent place in the SMHS curriculum. Both World History required of freshmen and American History required of juniors and seniors emphasized the relation of the past to the under- standing of present day realities. Weekly classes revolved around a panorama of color slides, filmstrips, and records. Students brought individual talent to the fore by giving oral reports. All of this helped to unite isolated facts into a coherent study of world affairs. Mr. Nestinger explains one of the basic prin- ciples of social science to his class. THE HISTORY DEPARTMENT: Mr. Eugene Malhame, Mr. Richard O'Brien, Mr. John Gloss, Mr. Stephen Nes- tinger, Sister Anselm, Mr. Charles Nuziale, and Mr. Alex Kous. 28
