the order of the Universe Leona Hohman and Donald Burdett listen to the explana- tion of a spherical angle being given by Edward Shultz in Solid Geometry. From the expressions on their faces one gathers that Ed certainly knows what he ' s talking about. Let no one unacquainted with geometry enter here. his motto was placed above the entrance of the chool of Plato, a great philosopher and teacher. !he plane geometry class is learning the relationship letween numbers and geometric figures. Peter Dauer Ihows Janice Cool and Alan Creeger how to construct six sided figure. As Carlos Espano looks on, Hugh Clark shows Betty Yarris how to practice problems while learning the use of a slide rule. These trigonometry students know that a knowledge of the slide rule will shorten the hours of work needed to master a higher moth course. Michael Reiter and Michael Mogers have a doubtful look on their faces as they watch Paula Steyer solve a second year algebra problem. Learn- ing to use the graph is an important port of the second year algebra course. 21

Mathematics helps us to see It is said, and it is truly so that there is a Mathematics course for everyone and every need. Con- sequently, St. Wendelin ' s fine cur- riculum provides a mathematics course for every student and for every need. For students who are looking for a career in the business v orld, there is bookkeeping, advanced arithmetic, and business arithmetic to help light the way. Those students who are plan- ning to go to college can take algebra and geometry. These subjects not only make the student a more exact thinker but also train the mind for work in higher mathematics courses. For the students who will be the world ' s next great scientists there are included in the curriculum: solid geometry, trigonometry, and a second year of algebra. Gory Reens, Mary Ellen Stearns, and Robert Krauss, three advanced arithmetic students, vie for honors in adding the columns. The age of advancement in science is coifing for the nation ' s youth. These Algebra I students are starting early in their preparation for the future. As Sally Coppus and Jane Yost solve a quadratic equation, Paul Durnwald and Bill Hammer get a head start on the homework assignment. 20 Learning the art of checks and ! G ' ances is just one aspect of finance that is taught in Mr. Veith ' s business arithriet ' c class. Carol Lyons, Edward Wise, cnci Cheryl Knox have been presented with a typical problem.

God ' s Gifts Patricia Huth and Michaelene Weidner, budding horticulturists, entice some male bialogists to peer curiously into the new conservatory which adjoins the biology room. These future professional scientists, Kathleen Gehring and Michael King, are practicing their future life ' s work. In this instance, they are demonstrating to the rest of the senior chemistry class their ability John Ray looks puzzled as Robert Jurrus says, Nothing to it, to John Bugner and James Zender. These four physics students calculate the expansion rate of copper, one of many experiments performed. 22 James Wenzke, Donald Woessner, and William Welker compare surface develop- ment in Drafting I.
