Jr. and Sr. High Science Clubs are Sponsored by Mrs. Faye Rich and Mrs. Carol Smitherman. The members of these clubs were re¬ quired to pay dues to enable them to go on field trips. Various speakers were invited during the year. Among these was a doctor from the Gross Anatomy Department at Bowman Gray who brought human bones and a pig’s heart with which he explained blood circulation and showed valves. Another was Mr. Robert Rich who came and explained about the requirements for accep¬ tance to medical school. Other events included learning about CPR and the presentation of a Science magic show by the members. After class, Mrs. Smitherma n and Mrs. Rich discuss the next meeting.

Exploring New Fields A calculator is always helpful in math, as this group finds out here. Carrie Combs seems to be in her own world as she toys with a complicated calculator. The Math club, sponsored by Mrs. Ann Hamrick, went on a tour of the Sanco computer system. Later in the year, a guest speaker from the Internal Revenue Service came to explain Income Tax forms. After Christmas the mem¬ bers went out to eat. The meal was paid for by money raised by the club. The proceeds came from games made for the participation of other sfudents in the school. One game was “guess the number of m m’s”, where the winner re¬ ceived them. The other game was a puzzle, where the winner re¬ ceived a box of candy. Puzzles were also played among the members during the meetings which made them more fun. As he toils over a difficult theorm, Brian Cook remains deep in thought. Learning about an illustrated problem, the Math Club officers lead the group. 62 Math Club
