There are many waya In which a knowledge or Dioiogicai science can be of great value. The student learns a great deal about health and disease through the science of biology. Biology teaches us to understand how our bodies work. This knowledge is Important to our dally well being. Biology provides us with a knowledge of plants and ani mals, gardening and agriculture are based on a knowledge of bio logical principles. The wise and efficient use of our natural re sources can be helped through the biological study of conser vation. Many occupations and professions require a background of biology. Among these are medicine, ''entistry, veterinary work, laboratory, hospital, farm ing, nursing and pharmacy. Hob bles of all types are often de veloped as a result of work In the classroom. Boardly speaking the primary objectives of education are to help the student understand man and his needs, to help the student find satisfaction for his needs, and, to help the student understand the culture In which he lives. The course In biology as presented In our high school attempts to Incorporate these general alms of education Into Its program by the use of lecture, laboratory, classroom discussion, and class assignments.

It teaches the student to win, but to win by the rules of the game. It is good training from this angle also. Students should be taught to win, he said. "If you do not teach the student to win by using his utmost cap abilities you are not giving him full training." This is another good habit which football play ers learn and which fits them for a better life, he declared. "The game teaches the players to lose gracefully, yet try to win as everyone wants to be a win ner In life," he said. Playing football often bene fits a boy on his grades.
