In Science Fair
Out of approximately 600 en
tries, each of the three individ
ual classes at Senior had at least
one person representing it as one
of the top six ribbon winners in
the Science Pair.
First place went to Dick Robin
son, a senior, wliile Graham Tal
bot, also a senior, was second
place winner. Third and fourth
prizes were awarded respectively
to Maurice Cole, sophomore; and
Tom Hudgins, junior. Betsy Stev
ens, sophomore, was fifth place
winner, while sixth place went to
Paul Tobin, also a sophomore.
Each of these winners had an
entirely different project. Their
reasons for selecting their particu
lar project were varied, and each
boent a different amount of time
working on his oroicct. In ceneral.
there was very little similarity in
the projects of these six winners.
Dick’s project was a model of
a working water purification plant
which took water through the
different stages necessary in mak
ing it suitable for human con
sumption. Dick worked on his
project approximately 75 hours
over a period of six weeks. He be
came interested in this particu
lar project through a chemistry
course and found that the re
search involved in making the
purification plant helped him to
better understand that section in
chemistry, ^s first place winner,
Dick received a radio, which was
donated by Sears Roebuck and
Company.
“Allergies and Their Treatment”
was the subject of Tom’s project.
He displayed such allergies as dog
hairs and wool and also showed
drugs, nose drops, and other
things that may be used in the
treatment of allergies.

He worked on his project for
two and a half months and re
ceived guidance from Dr. M. D.
Bonner, an allergy specialist. Tom
had rather unique reason for se
lecting allergies as his topic. It
seems that he has allargies and
therefore he naturally has an inter
est in them.
Graham’s project as a self-con
tained underwater breathing appa
ratus. It was built to give sufficient
air to a diver for a period of 45
minutes at a safe depth of 35 feet.
T became interested in the diving
lung after seeing a diver use one.
I investigated the possibility of
buying a lung, found them to be
quite expensive, and decided to
build my own. It took me approxi
mately eight months to complete
the lung, but quite a lot of that
time was spent in searching for
necessary parts and gathering in
formation,” states Graham.
“Comparison of Hearts” ’was the
subject of Betsy’s project. Her
project was especially unique as
she secured a cow’s heart from a
professional lab. Betsy says that
shd had no specific reason for se
lecting hearts for a project; just
that she has always been interested
in the heart and its diseases.
Showing how electricity is made
by utilizing water which flows over
a dam was Maurice’s project. Maur
ice constructed his hydro-electric
plant from steel and plywood and
worked on it over a period of three
months. He decided to do this proj
ect as a result of a course in ma
chinery which he is taking under
his father.
Paul’s project was entitled
“Myths, Medicines, and History of
Herbs.” In his project he tried to
bring out the importance of herbs
in medicine and history, as well
as in its common place, the kitchen.
Paul worked on his project inpprox-
imately eighty hours.
Miss Vilma Sood, lady supervisor of physical education m Del-
hi State, India, paid the Senior Hish girls’ physical education
