Acauainting Students Fullq with A Language ls Vital Buenos dias, pax vobiscum, guten tag, bon iour - these are some of the expressions that can be heard in the foreign language section of Catalina. The basic English courses along with these languages comprise the Language Department. Mrs. Uarda Phe- lan, chairman ofthe Language Department, stated that the main purposes of the English classes are to teach the students to read, write, speak, and listen to the English language. Vocabulary, spelling, and grammar are also stressed as important by Mrs. Phelan, in Eng- lish and in German, French, Spanish, and Latin, the four foreign languages offered here. Oral self-ex- pression was an important factor in all of the lang- uages except Latin, for, with the exception of Latin, the purpose of taking a foreign language is to learn to speak it with fluency and ease. Ancient and modern literature was discussed in all of the language courses. There were two small honors English classes this year taught by Miss Betty Leddy. Those seniors who want to delve more deeply in their study of English can take this instead of a regular senior course if their grades in English have been excelle-nt and they are able to keep up with this work. The some work is covered by this group, but extra material is taken up as well. Which book shall I take? lt's a tough decision for Harold Nicholls and Harold Barr with so many good ones filling the library shelves. Languages . . . Top Row: Miss Nancy Adle-English . . .
