To the pupil in- terested in the oral part of the language, drama and speech classes are offered, while newswriting and creative writing also afford a credit in English. Angels weak in reading skills can find help in subjects such as remedial reading. Grammar is very well taken care of by the diagnostic English, composition, and college preparatory classes. Shakespeare, too, has yielded much enjoyment this past semester. Under the leadership of the English teach- ers, the boys and girls of East find pleasure in pursuing the paths of English learning.

Now required for graduation, classes in American history are designed not only to give the pupil a knowledge of the early United States, but also to acquaint him with the problems of our country today. In addition to the re- quired American history many elective courses are offered in this department. Modern Eu- ropean history, ancient history and history of the West give students an opportunity to broaden this knowledge of the field while sociology, economic and social problems and psy- chology give variety and inter- est to the offerings of the So- cial Studies department.
