Their inexhaustible talents provide us with much pleasure and at the carnival each spring we gather around the booth where art students try their skills in pastel portraits of those students with enough patience to sit still for half an hour. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach is the by-word of the Home Arts Department. They take great pride in cooking meals and, though it is The firs» slop in making o dress is the necessary job of loying out the pottern. Harriet Green ond Patti Cohoon help each other so the job will be finished quickly ond accurately. sometimes difficult to get samples of their culinary creations, the girls take pleosure in concocting all sorts of tempting dishes. It is truly a woman's world when scraps of material ond threod are transformed into suits, dresses, and coots. Musicians and I steners alike take great pride in B-CC's Music Department. Our A Cappella Choir is, one of the organizations of which we con be most proud. Each year hundreds thrill to the choir's inspir- ing Christmas concert presented at the National Cathedral. Even the most critical have nothing but praise for the rich tone quality and emotion which the choir produces.

Ob- viously we have never thought of the variety of fields Explaining homework at the board before closs is John Bassett, who appreciates the help of Dove Conklin, Fred Rolle, ond Paul Marques. available to math students. We find, however, that there is more and more room for engineers, architects, ond mathematicians. These positions ore available to those willing to work for them. Even for those who do not wish to make a career of math there is the thought that a knowledge of math = a well-organized life.

A Key To Better Understanding In today's world of international problems the study of o foreign languoge is porticulorly helpful. French is the language of diplomacy not only in inter- national circles but also when we wish to conceal something from little brothers and sisters who have finally learned that B-R-A-T is a word they should know. Parlez-vous francais? is a stepping stone to bigger things. Sponish is also quite handy, particu- larly when discussing Pan-Am projects with our Latin American neighbors at the Pan American Union. Lotin, of course, is the basis for both French and Span- ish as well os the other Romance languages. Mystify your friends with a Lotin proverb or two. This is a sure way to impress that intellectual guy you've got a crush on. Many people are obviously already con- vinced of the advantages of knowing a foreign lan- guoge and enrollment in third and fourth year classes has increased tremendously in the post few years. Recording o Sponish ploy for o closs program for Christmos required coreful rcheorsol. Korin Eckelmeyer, Dophne Dutton, ond Judy Livingston woit for their cues, while Kurt Miller, Kenneth Sheiry, ond Bob Nicnolos concentrate on the operation of the tope recorder. Kenny Smith records his role. 16
