Sciences Thai all-round Chemistry man: Mr. Kaufman. B.S. Franklii Marshall; M.S. University of Kentucky. Three sciences — chemistry, physics, and bi- ology — taught by Zane Kauffman, Leon Ar- nold, and Doctor Lenore Ward respectively, are courses recommended for all science majors, engineers, pre-medical, pre-dental, and pre-veterinary students. These subjects are presented by lecture demonstration and laboratory work. Chemistry classes learn the fundamental laws and theories of chemistry, the non-metals, and their com- pounds, and the important industrial metals. Dr. Ward, in turn, expounds on the life rela- tionships of plants and animals. Lab periods are devoted to investigation of plant and animal structure. Physics deals with properties, changes, interaction of matter and energy. This little pig went . . . Dave Wakeland; Dr. Ward. B.A. Indiana State Normal; M.A., Ph.D. University of Michigan. 20

Psychology Guidance Playing or testing: Barbara Buchart, M University of Pennsylv Kagan. B.S., M.A., As freshmen, many of us have not decided definitely what profession or vocation to enter. To help us make this momentous decision, YJC established in 1954 the testing service for all students. Mrs. Kagen, in addition to her Testing and Counselling activities, teaches General Psy- chology and The Family. To the psychology classes the terms INTELLIGENCE, LEARN- ING, OBSERVATION, AND EMOTIONS become significant vocabulary. As an interest- ing additional activity these classes took a field trip to Elwyn Training School to observe train- ing of the mentally retarded. The Family Class.

Socio-logically inclined: Miss Baschangel. B.A, Hiram College; M.S.W. Univeisity of Pittsburgh. When words like INFLATION, MANIFEST DESTINY, AND POLITICS are being bandied about, in and out of the classroom, it can only be surmised that they come from the tongues of interested social science students. To the economics student INFLATION is only one of the many modern industrial pat- terns of the century, one more headache for him and for the nation ' s economists. The doctrine of MANIFEST DESTINY can almost be heard parading down through his- tory, by the student who is taught to recognize man ' s errors in the past, and to prevent them in the future. POLITICS is a concept of methods which men have developed to govern themselves. It is hoped that the thought-provoking words heard in these classrooms will be remembered and used in the search for better understanding of mankind. Relaxation: Mr. Miller.
