High Science WOSE:
Introduced To NeEUS Readers
BY BARBARA LOU GLOTFELTY+

by DAnbRuA LDO GLOl FL
The science department at South
ern High school and its functions
are being introduced to readers of
The Republican this week by Bar
bara Lou Glotfelty, senior student.
Southern has three modern science
classrooms and laboratories. More
equipment which is required for
individual experiments will be pro-
vided as soon as the need can be
met.
The science courses offered in
clude general science, required for
ninth grade students; biology, re-
quired for all tenth grade students;
chemistry and consumer science,
electives for students in the 18th
grade; and physics and senior
science, electives for 18th grade
students.
Two years of science are re-
quired for graduation.
Mr.. Harold Miller, who teaches
biology, is head of the science de-
partment He holds his MA. de-
gree. Other instructors are Mr.

the peanut. He was asked where he
had learned so much about the
peanut. He replied, from the

the Bible had to do with peanuts
Nothing, said Carver. but il tells
all about God who made the pea
