Would you think it strange if a teacher walked into your class- room and said bonjour or hola as a greeting? You wouldn't if you have ever taken a FOREIGN LANGUAGE. In fact, these phrases would be instantly recognizable as French or Spanish equivalents of hello, and so would the teachers be instantly recognizable as Mr. Voytko, our French professeur, or Ms. Cannone or Ms. Humphrey, our Spanish maestras. This year we miss Mrs. Lesko as a French teacher because of an apparent lack of student interest in French. This is unfortunate because foreign languages enable a student to learn about differences in cultures and people, and also to find out what the similarities are. MR.

Every student attending Cambria Heights High School must take four years of ENGLISH, so willingly or unwillingly by the time we are seniors we know some of these teachers very well, and perhaps they know us even better. They've guided us through the jungle of nouns, verbs, and adjectives and into the quicksand of participles, gerunds and infinitives. After rescuing us from the verbals, they led us through such classics as THE GOOD EARTH, and MACBETH. Fortunately, we also learned that paper burns at FARENHEIT 451. With patience and exasperation; kindness and 'you give too much homework;’ understanding and misunderstanding; these teachers put us on the road to good English, which leads to better communication. Missing when the photograph was taken were Miss Boslet, and Mrs. Depto, who is on a year's sabbatical. MR. WILLIAM E. SCHIRF B. S., Shippensburg State Col.

Whether it be 2 + 2 = 4 or — 5x2 + z3 = 0 (solve for X), the MATH DEPART- MENT at CH is able to handle problems from the simplest addition to the most complex equations. Headed by Mr. Gresko, this department teaches such classes as general math and trig, and a mini-course on slide rule. Problems that boggle the mind can become even more unclear when explained by Mr. Petrunyak or Mr. Crowell, but all kidding aside, the teachers in this department prepare their students well for either everyday or more advanced mathematics. However you look at it, the women are still outnumbered, even with the addition of Ms. Judy Pecenek as a full- time substitute for Mrs. Grybosky, who is on a year's leave of absence.
