Frontiers of Progress Conquered By Science Have you spent a good deal of time studying the human skeletal system, broken many test tubes during experiments, struggled hours over seemingly insurmountable physics problems? If so, you are probably one of many students connected with W.H.S.'s science program. Science is not only the mainstay of our ex- istence but also the basis for our future. Ap- plicable to any field, the scientific method enables us to find a logical approach to all our problems. Science today represents the efforts of man through all the ages to enrich his fellow-man with new inventions and devices that will make his life fuller and more pleasant. The scientist today has finally earned the just respect of the Berg Dix Dzubay peoples of every land and in years to come will continue to improve upon his inventions through limitless areas of endeavor. As there are more modern advancements in science and technology, so must high school science courses be expanded proportionately. To accomplish this, the subject matter of the various courses is broadened and intensified, and the classroom libraries increased and sup- plemented. Accelerated programs are likewise continued to challenge eager students. Many new ideas such as the present biology program are being fully initiated into our school. Likewise, many of the old stand-bys are now being studied and applied in the light of new methods and new ideas. MR. BEN BERG-B.A., M.A.g Physics, Faculty Organization Comm.

New concepts replace the old as man proceeds on his never ending search for know- ledge. Yet, despite this ever changing process, the knowledge of fundamentals and the ability to an- alyze remains a requirement for success in this area. Our math department covers many aspects of this subject to prepare students for further study or to give them needed knowledge for their daily lives. Algebra, geometry, advanced algebra, trig- onometry, and analysis are offered at W.H.S. In addition, foundations was added to our curriculum this year. This course covers logic, probability, linear programming, and the theory of games.
