Tape Library Supplements Foreign Language Studies Solve! Bonjour! Guten Tag! These are among the many greetings of Holy Cross lin- guists. From the students of Latin I to those of Latin lll, the Roman language has again come alive. This is exemplified in the award- ing of the fourth medal and first trophy as o result of achievement in the National Auxil- ium Latinum Contest, by attendance at the Junior Classical League Rally, and by means of Latin Clubs. Due to the added emphasis on languagesq French and German are now offered on the sophomore level. The language lab has been enhanced with o new recording tape cabinet and o large selection of tapes and records.

Math Students Gain Skill ln language of Science' Offering a complete four year math program for college-bound students, Holy Cross also pro- vides excellent courses preparing for business and other occupational fields. Because of the thorough training received in these classes, many alumni have attained suc- cessful occupations and several have been en- rolled in advanced math college courses. Interest in achieving mathematical goals has been demonstrated by the participation in vari- ous math contests. These include the New Jer- sey Mathematics Day, the New Jersey Catholic Round Table of Science Tests, and the National High School Mathematics Contest. lt was through one of these contests that a Holy Cross student obtained a grant for higher study in math at Assumption College last summer. Being the language of science, it is only through carrying out this strong foundation in math that this emphasis on science can be achieved.
