Along with the hum of the other electronic equipment, the drone of the air conditioners could be heard on hot after- noons. One could find it hard sometimes to get anyone ' s attention in the lab to answer the door with the students busy listening to tapes over the earphones. Mr. Rosado taught Spanish I to the fresh- men and Spanish II to the sophomores and used the lab as his home base. At times he would let Mrs. Rosalie Frame, who taught French I and French II, and a French III course to the juniors, use it to help the students parlez francaise electronically. One of the highlights of the year for the language department was when sophomores, Keith Eaton and Mike Crow won first and second place in state competition Category A in the national Spanish test. Mr. Rosado made sure everyone on the faculty knew about it he was so proud of them.
