Physics Classes Disfurbed by Chemistry Sound Waves Mr. Jobson and his nomadic Physics classes spent most of this year try ing to find a peaceful and permanent room in which to study. Despite the roar of the neighboring Chemistry class, they studied waves and motion through the use of slinkies and ripple tanks. The Chemistry classes learned the basics, then applied them to practical experiments. Many students learned their valences the hard way. and many received after school coaching on their weak points. Every day, students left Chemistry with characteristic goggle marks on their faces and chemical-stained hands, both signs of a hard day’s work. The college-bound student will not go there unprepared, thanks to the high- level teaching methods of the Tabb High Science Department. Mr. Ellis Boyd, Hampton-Institute, University of Virginia, Science Club Sponsor Mr. George Jobson, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, Senior Class Sponsor Mrs Esther Freeman. Radford College, Senior Class Sponsor Mr. Donald Franks, University of Oklahoma, Ohio State University Mr. Boyd hides from Chemistry class. Mr. Jobson gladly gives a student extra help. Mrs. Freeman stresses a point. Mr. Franks explains a principle. 1 I ■4 SCllENCE DEPARTMENT 119

Math Department Strives for Better Communication The math department strives to provide each student with the basic mathematical skills needed to get a job or to continue his formal education. In greater detail, the math depanment tries to meet three different mathematical needs of three different types of math students. First, the mathematical program for the non-academic student should be prartical and provide him with the basic math skills necessary for employment. Second, the program for the academic student should include both the theoretical and applied fields and prepare the student for further mathematics courses as they relate to other professional fields. Third, the program for the gifted student should be rigorous and include both the theoretical and applied fields. Mr. Jeffrey W.
