Logic Make Trojans Work Would you believe “pythagorean theorem” problems arc simple? Geometry offers never-ending problems in understanding of geo- metric figures. This is Algebra? Our mathematician! Each student who graduates from T.H.S. must have at least one credit of mathematics. For many students, though, one year of the science of math is not enough. General Math was the simplest of the courses in this area. Algebra I had many freshmen;Geometry had sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Algebra II offered a greater challenge. Advanc- ed Math had only two seniors, Kenneth Winder and John Neumann, willing to try an even harder math. And then there are the seniors in Advanced Math. Scholastics 17

News English Produces Trojan Trumpet The News English class, a new one at THS, worked many long and hard hours to publish the TROJAN TRUMPET twice monthly during the term. Only one member of the class had had any experience in writing for a school paper when Janice Ashley took over the class. The paper is typed by the Typing II class; then the staff makes up the paper, pastes it up; and it is sent to the Vo-Tech school in Atchison for printing. Scholastic 19
