This vear. as even year, there was breaking of test tubes, acid burns on the hands and holes burned in clothes, all of which played an important part in fostering cautious judgment. Those who had arrived thus far went on to physics, which consists of studying physical changes and effects of matter and energy. Tins class also included laboratory work which gave the students a chance to apply the principles of physics. Amid facts, figures and formulas the math department stood ready to solve problems that we run into during everyday life.
