Lyons LANGUAGES With the advent of our language laboratory, and the large number of new courses available, no one can doubt the remarkable advances in the language department at Millis High School. Now students at Millis not only can acquire competence in linguistic ability, but also a cosmopolitan outlook so basic to a good education. PHYSICAL EDUCATION ‘Physically fit—morally sound” is the aim of our very capable physical education department. Under the direction of Mr. Tewey and Miss Sylvia, the department is not only conditioning students physi- cally, but also preparing them for the rigors of life in a competitive world. LIBRARY AND REMEDIAL READING Reading is the key to success not only in scholastic endeavors but also in business and social circles. Moreover, diversified reading and the intelligent use of library facilities lead the way to a well-rounded and happy personality. Both Miss Cooney and Miss Strathern have worked diligently and successfully toward improving the reading skills of Millis students. “Who's she?’’
