Do you enjoy working with numbers? If you do, the math department sure can find some for you to stare at. For many years, Tech has ranked very highly for its excellent math department. To accomplish this record, there has to be someone behind it. Headed by Mr. Woodworth, the staff includes Miss Allen, Dr. Theinert, Miss Kelley, Mr. Bushey, Mr. Sprague, Mr. Moyle, and a new member to the faculty, Mr. Szetela. These well qualified and capable leaders try to drill into our heads the basic math upon which much of our future depends. This year, Tech has omitted the general course. This leaves only two courses from which a student may choose. The College Preparatory and Technical courses offer elementary algebra, plane ge- ometry, intermediate algebra and for the seniors, a course in trigonometry and solid geometry. The College Preparatory seniors are offered a choice between calculus and basic analytical geometry. From this, one could well say that a Tech graduate Must have plenty of math when he graduates. €.

This section is known as the Home Economics Depart- ment. Here there are courses in foods, clothing, pattern drafting, and home management, under the able direction of Miss Miller, Miss Borrner, and Miss Mastrangelo, the newest addition to this department. The aim now is to modernize the foods classes. New equip- ment added to this department this year includes a new freezer, and new glassware to aid serving classes. In the laundry, a new electric washer and dryer help to make necessary tasks ey more pleasant. 4 G «
