s4fo t4- 'SciK4 t Kathleen Mullen, Carolyn Birch, Kathleen Urban, Irwin Westerfer, and James Farrell feed the hampster which has the life of Rile ' in their Biology class. Physics students, Richard Sullivan, John Costa, Thomas Fabiani, Patricia Stroud, Richard DiCiurcio, Constance Koldys, William McMahon, and Mary O'Donnell perform various experiments in static electricity. Carolyn Cassel watches the condensation of water vapor in ihe distillation of water, an experiment in Sister John Baptist's General Science class.

SCIENCE Rosalie Kusso, Stanley Kobus, Roberta Duda, Patrick Tweedy, and Joseph Puzyn experiment with Tesla coil, constructed by a student of last year's class. In our science labs Chemistry students cook up some weird concoctions in performing their experiments. We can rarely guess what they are making but we know it isn't Evening in Paris. Potential engineers learn the fundamental principles of such physical phenomena as light, heat, sound, force, and electricity. Biologists explore the ever fascinating mystery of life from its simplest form in microscopic creatures to God's masterpiece of earthly creation- man.

Mr. Zajac explains bask method of working any percentage problem. Mathematical training provides us with the mental equipment we must bring not only to the experimental method used in other sciences, but also to the intelligent analysis and solution of the practical problems of every day. Our curriculum offers us courses in business arithmetic, algebra, plane and solid geometry, and trigonometry. And should a student's yen for exploring the rarer atmosphere of math not be satisfied, Sister Rita Aloysia, advisor of our Math Club will take him aloft but we urgently suggest a space suit. Joseph Puzyn and Rosalie Russo solve a problem in Trig.
