Mrs. Carol Clark French I, II, and III Miss Luella French Latin I, Il, and III MUSIC DEPARTMENT Our music teachers are really happy this year. In all their isolated, sound-proof rooms they can play and sing to their heart's content. They do, tool Mr. Geise, the choral director, directs both Girl's and Mixed Choruses, and they are very good, as their concerts have proven. The Band also has shown itself worthy of praise. Mrs. Snith does a grand job of keeping them in practice, time, and tune. LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT Echoing dorm the corridor is the chant... do, das, dat, damus, datus, dant. Mingled in is the phrase. ..Comment allez-vous? Yes, Latin and French classes are in session. Miss French will soon begin the Gaulic wars, while, across the hall Mrs. Clark is going over an oral report on Genevieve, the Patron Saint of Paris. Both of the subjects are very well taught, and if we can learn them well, we will have gain- ed a great deal that will help us for years to come for Latin and French are the basic languages of our own and many others. Also, the study habits picked up during these three or four years will surely help us in our future studies. x hwy .5 Mrs. Genevieve Smith Band Mr. Richard Geise Junior High Music Chorus 16 L I

Especially those poor Agricultural students who have to hike from the very end of the noisy wing. We don't hear any complaining though. Must be the nice facili- ties they have compensate for the long walks. This year, besides their classroom, they have a shop to work in. Large overhead doors were installed so they could bring their machinery right inside the building to work on it. Mr. Maoomber and the future Agriculture men really have it pretty good! 18
