SENIOR "PHYSICAL SCIENCES" 51

 4. Final grade. Let the final grade be a composite re-
 cording growth in interest, skill, understanding, and
 appreciation as aspects of learning physics. Increas-
 ing ability to contribute to group activities should
 also be taken into consideration.
 H. Point out vocational opportunities-in fields; such as:
 1. Local opportunities include repair shops (auto-
 mobiles, mechanical, radio, electrical appliances);
 the building trades; communications.
 2. Regional opportunities are in the fields of aviation,
 meteorology, engineering (heating, ventilating,
 lighting, electrical, highway, construction, elec-
 tronics, and others), architecture (drafting, design-
 ing), civil service, research.
 3. Teaching physics and its applications.

 SECTION 8. THE PLACE OF "PHYSICAL SCIENCES"
 IN THE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL
 The State Department requirement of one year of physical
science beyond the ninth grade is ideally met by chemistry and
physics. However, certain substitutes are permitted, such as two
years of agriculture or home economics, or the one year course
of physical science herein discussed.
 The course in physical science is seldom a standard subject for
high schools. In small schools where adequate laboratory equip-
ment is not available it may have a place. If for some reason in
larger schools a number of local students are not adapted to the
standard chemistry-physics sequence, this course might be
offered for them to meet the graduation requirements in physical
science. Under whatever circumstances it is offered the advanced
physical science teacher must be well grounded in both chem-
istry and physics. This course should demand fully as much
work from the students as any other course in science, and should
be made equally interesting and instructive.
 Objectives of advanced physical science. These seem to be
appropriate:
