MRS. OPAL HALL B.S., M.S. Speech Think how handicapped you would be if suddenly you became speechless. It would be difficult for you to express yourself and make your wishes known except by writing. Realizing the importance of speaking, the Denton High Speech Department attempts to improve the speaking habits of students enrolled for Speech classes. This is done through confidence gained in public speaking, radio Work, dramatics, corrective drills, and many other techniques. The use of the mirror in correcting speech diffi- culties is often employed by students. They see the operation of the tongue against the palate and. teeth and the formation of the lips for basic sounds. Here a class is reading lines from a play soon to be dramatized by a Speech group.
