See that boy in the blue suede shoes who's coming this way, the girl sunning herself on that bench, or the fellow lounging on the library steps? The chances are great that all of these Techites studied some form of Language Arts this year. Language Arts is a combination of many, many different subiects. Our friend in the suede shoes undoubtedly believes that Latin IV, starring Julius Caesar, resembles no other course, and yet Latin, as well as German, French, Spanish, and our own familiar English are all a part of Tech's modern Language Arts courses. So, whether we learn to say, Si, Senorita, Oui, Mademoiselle, or Jawohl, Fraulein, we're really gaining the same skills. We're learning to read better, to write and speak better, and to understand better our fellow-men. LATIN, withstanding thousands of years of wear and tear, remains a favorite in the Language department. DISPLACED teen-agers from other countries, although they are familiar with the German language, find it interesting to further their knowledge of the language as they work with young Americans in Mrs. Susanna Underwood's class.

SCCIAL STUDIES CCURSES WIDEN OUR HORIZONS HAROLD Vaughn, president of the U.N., finds that it is not as easy as some might think to conduct a meeting with eager young delegates anxious to express their opinions on vital questions brought before the assembly. THE famous United Nations Building, New York. When we overheard at the Flower Pot Vishinsky got a little hot under the collar in his argument with Lodge, and He certainly did! we wondered whether the United Nations had abandoned its New York post in favor of setting up headquarters on our campus. Then we realized that these are the observations of two Techites who have just witnessed our version of the UN in action in Miss Katherine Book's Problems class. Instilled in us by experiences such as this are an understanding of the UN, the hope of peace for a world in turmoil, and a love of our priceless heritage, freedom. We pledge our support to the UN. We accept our responsibility of maintaining the American way of life.
