Sophomores Study Speech In their second year at AHS, the sophomores found themselves studying English under Mr. Johnson. During the entire first semester the class studied speech. They dealt with critical thinking, the voice mechanism, and stage fright, and everyone gave speeches to inform, convince, and sell. They covered parliamentary procedure by holding model class meetings. Panel discussions were also held on a variety of subjects. The video-tape machine proved to be a valuable asset, helping the sophomores see how they could improve their techniques. The second semester was devoted to litera- ture and grammar. All sophomores took biology and physical education, as well as English. Other classes they could be involved in from 8:30-3:30 included typing I, personal typing, geome- try, general business, and mechanical drawing. Besides participating in the regular activities after 3:30, the sophomores had the special responsibility of decorating for commencement. They also worked selling magazines to build up their class treasury. Curtis Anderson. Jerald Day. Rhonda Farley, and Sally Zabel work on a panel discussion for speech class.
