Problems and opportunities typify today's complex society. It is no longer satis- factory for Americans to be content with a knowledge of English only. The same applies to anyone else in any other country who speaks, but a single language. Although few of us possess the need or capacity to become skilled linguists, an ignorance of all other languages and the people who speak them is, especially now, a cause for ill feelings and misunderstanding between peoples. At Arthur Hill language study forms an integral part of the curriculum. 'German, French, and Spanish students receive instruc- tion not only in the class room but also in the language laboratory where special emphasis is placed on correct pronunciation. In Latin, which has been called “the language of the scholar, the aims of the course and the manner of study differ somewhat from those of the modern languages, but accuracy of translation and awareness of the people and culture are still foremost. WAS IST DIES?—Mrs. Kerns discusses differences between German and American newspapers with her class.

Once a dream, then a reality, now a tradition the Arthur Hill Legenda marks its fiftieth pub- lication this year. As the times have changed, so each issue has been adapted to suit a particular trend. Themes from former yearbooks, such as the swimming pool, profiles, new horizons, and class rings recall the feeling of an entire year. Although each staff tries to surpass former accomplish- ments, the creativity of the present and future can not be found in a repeat of the past. Producing a yearbook is not so easy as it may seem. Taking pictures, selling ads, writing copy, and finishing layouts involve quality as well as quantity. What seem only a few wasted minutes may mean unfinished pages on the deadline date. Long and exhausting hours of work are forgotten in the moments of satisfaction when the Legendas are finally distributed. For some staffs like that of 1963 there comes the reward of receiving FIRST CLASS HONOR RATINGS from both the Na- tional and Columbia Scholastic Press Associations.
