The Classi- cal High School Foreign Language Department, under the direction of Miss Charlotte Wetherell, recognizes and fulfills this need.

Both these ancient languages have much to recommend them: the highly organized nature of both provides in- sight into the basic grammatical structure of lan- guageg a substantial fraction of English vocabulary stems from bothg and even more significant, some of the world's greatest literature is written in either Greek or Latin. It is a privilege to have an opportunity at Classi- cal to study Latin for four years and Greek for three years. Thus the student observes that no civil- izations have had a greater influence on Western culture than those of Greece and Rome. ANGELO MURCHELANO Brown University, A.M.
