Spanish. Judy Osterberg practices her oral Spanish by making a recording from a lesson in her book. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT As foreign language is becoming more and more necessary for stude nts, Dover High is expanding its program and facilities. This year Mrs. Everett, from Panama, joined the staff to help accommodate the many students interested in a foreign tongue. Dover's modern foreign language program offers French and Spanish. In each class, conversation and reading are stressed. Thus, through continual practice, much of it in the language laboratory, the student can speak with a minimum of hesitation. In charge of the language department is Miss Mary E. App, who devoted her time to helping her students understand the backgroundand development of Latin and French, as wellas teaching the languages themselves. The Latin program is useful in learning English, and it is of special importance for those planning to further their education in the field of Romance languages. Mr. Theodore Pyne is head of the Spanish depart- ment. Under his direction, students read novels, carryon discussions, and study the life and history of those people who speak Spanish.
