Editors Acquire SUI Journalism By Kate Schaffert and Chris Wahlig As the 60 boys attending the journal- ism seminar, June 8-12, at the State University of Iowa, assembled Monday morning for breakfast at Burge Hall, they were a little surprised to find that the 218 female participants had beaten them to the ham and eggs. To the shy, timid fellows, the sight of so many females made them wish they’d never walked the mile and a half to Burge Hall. This was only one of the problems faced by four AHS senior journalists, Lee DeJulius and Barb Kruse, co-edi- Looking, Listening Students Learn ‘‘Habla Ud. espanol?” Next year many more students will be able to answer in the affirmative. The lan- guage departments in both divisions will be used in addition to the audio- lingual aids already in use. In the first quarter alone four filmstrips and eleven movies will be shown. Sr. Mary Blandina, BVM, explained that the film will be shown three times: first in introduction in English, then with the Spanish vocabulary, and a third time without any language, al- lowing the student to fill in the Span- ish for himself. This method will help the student to associate the picture with the Spanish, enabling him to re- tain the vocabulary with much less ef- fort. “This method,” says Sr. Mary Nata- lie, BVM, “will give the student an opportunity to really speak and un- derstand a language — all they have to do is try. “The new book, Learning Spanish, is the very latest with the emphasis on oral recitation rather than written drills, as in previous years. The text book won’t even be used the first month of class. Oral drill will cut all writ- ten homework to a minimum, which will please teachers and students alike. The actual homework will be listening to practice records rented by the stu- dent for a particular lesson. As a result the class will be more practical and in- teresting to the student.” Mr. Loras Schiltz likened the study of Spanish in the new method to that of a young child learning to speak Eng- lish. “Just as a baby learns how to speak by listening and practice, so too, the student will learn by listening to the practice records and oral drill, and at the same time by learning the rules and correct form unconsciously.” tors of the Knight Beacon, and Chris Wahlig and Kate Schaffert, associate editors, at the 12th Annual Iowa High School Journlism Workshop. Another problem posed to the work- shop students was in publishing two newspapers. The eight-page Hawkette was produced by the advanced news- paper division, which Barb and Lee attended. The second paper, the Work- shopper, was developed by the mimeo- graph division. Both papers wrere dis- tributed at the graduation dinner. Kate and Chris participated in the yearbook division to gain some insight on how' to make the KB more like a yearbook. Mr. Rod Vahl, journalism teacher and yearbook advisor at West High, was the yearbook division in- structor. Reasonably enough, the two Knights were the only ones in the yearbook division that didn't have a school yearbook. A finite math course, college phy- sics seminars and various field trips marked the “college” life of senior Mike Foley this summer. Mike attended the State University of Iowa from June 8 to August 5, on a tuition scholarship provided by the National Science Foundation. He was one of 70 in the state of Iowa who qualified for the course. Planning on becoming an electrical engineer, Mike hopes to attend MIT, Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Although he was competing with the top students in the state, Mike thought that his math background at Assump- All was not work, however. The workshop activities included a mixer on Monday night and a swimming party scheduled for Tuesday evening, which was canceled due to the 45 de- gree temperature of the water in the field house pool. “I think it would have felt good,” said Lee, “after suf- fering through 90 degree temperatures for two days.” Wednesday evening most of the journalists took in a movie, to which admission was free, while Thursday found the workshoppers picnicing in the rain at Lake McBride, a park about 20 miles from Iowa City. Completing the workshop was a graduation ban- quet held Friday evening in the River Room of the Iow’a Memorial Union. Further entertainment was found at the student union which provided pool tables, a juke box and a lounge. There was souvenier shopping to do, and al- most everyone took home at least one “Iow’a” sweatshirt. tion was, in many cases, superior to that of his fellow “collegians.” This really helped him when he had to pre- pare four or five hours for each of his classes. It wasn’t all work and no play though. Mike spent three days in Chicago, tour- ing the Argonne National Laboratories, and later he toured the Collins Radio Station in Cedar Rapids, learning about his future profession. When not studying, Mike could use the student union, which is fully equipped with ping-pong and pool ta- bles, and a snack bar to refuel for much-needed energy. YO HABLO ESPANOL ...
