During ll B English, Mrs. Mullarkey explains to Char- les Harris how checks and minuses on homework as- signments figure into his grade. 24 LANGUAGE ARTS English, offering a wide range of 25 courses, was an inescapable subject everyone was required to take. Stu- dents were offered the chance to ben- efit from several opportunities. Mrs. Bridges commented on Senior Dramatics and Speech, These stu- dents had the chance to build confi- dence in themselves and an increase awareness of human problems. Self expression and getting over the in front of the class jitters were two areas on which great emphasis was placed. The AHS speech department was represented in the district VFW Voice of Democracy contest by Debbie Burand who tied for third. lO All English found sophomores disillusioned with keeping note cards straight, remembering to reverse the indention procedure on the biblio- gaphy page, and finally optomist- graphy page, and finally optomist- ically looking at a C+ as a final re- search paper grade. American Studies classes made but- ter, learned square dancing, and dec- orated an old-fashioned Christmas tree to help relate their studies to the life of the early Americans. The Indiana Reporatory Theater housed lOO AHS students from l2Hll English, French, World Literature, and Drama classes as they viewed a Mol- iere play, The Doctor in Spite of Him- selff' March 7. The play was designed to present the follies and absurdities in mans' behavior patterns.
