However, that soulful-looking fellow in the back of the room undoubtedly is picking up ci hot colypso on his headset, Spanish With a Modern Twist - Electronics Invades the Class.

UNO hablo Espanol, was all the frightened teen-agei could stutter in reply. Obviously, he wasn't an Alhambra High language student. ln a shrinlsing world, language can be a barrier be- tween peoplc. Understanding other people . . . their culture, ideals, lite, and a deeper appreci- ation tor our own language . . . These things come trom the study ot a toreign language. New techniques make study more interesting. Four very active language clubs . . . contests with other schools . . . earphones and tope recordings in the new language laboratory . . . Knowing another language is an asset . . . Being able to read tor- eign menus . . . using the continental approach . . . hurling a menacing German phrase at a slow waiter in a restaurant. . . startling triends with a casually tossed ott Latin quotation . . . The varied program ot the Foreign Language Department makes learning another language challenging as well as tun. 73 , 7 , 'lllfil fat L fi, 'J . ,,. 1i,, gi. ,T kfilfilf Q' '45 - Y LANGUAGE llett to rightl Miss L, Murphyi, lvlr, A, Chavez, Mr, K.

Jumping Jacks, Push-Ups, Burpies Separate Men from Boys. Participation for all . . . This is the goal of the Boys' Physical Education Department. Basketball courts, gym equipment, and the new iuice machine replace textbooks as the tools of education. Work- ing together plus team spirit plus physical exercise equals a healthy, well-rounded individual. Gym also has less obvious benefits. Running laps is great for conditioning. Outdoor sports make sun- tan easy for all to attain.
