Journalists strive to record events of year Photographer Miro Skripnik, junior, focuses his camera to take pictures for the yearbook. The newspaper and yearbook staffs worked side by side to report and interpret the school year. Interviewing visitors, faculty, administration, and students took up much time. The Arrow Head staff also visited the Detroit Journalism Institute in December to learn new reporting techniques. A first class rating was awarded to the staff in writing, editing, and photography. Writing headlines, copy, cutlines, and cropping pictures kept the Prospectus staff busy. The '69 Prospectus also achieved a first class rating. A new format was used to modernize the yearbook layout. Four new photographers gave a fresh outlook to the staffs this year. The photographers experi- mented in picture techniques. While learning the basics in Journalism, the Beginning Journal- ism classes were given opportunities to try and write features for the Arrow Head. One of the classes main jobs was to pass out the Arrow Head bi-weekly. 18 academics

Languages open new cultures to students Next stop Paris, France, the voice announced over the public address system. At last you had arrived. If it was not Paris, perhaps a quaint German town or a brightly decorated Spanish city. It seemed quite impossible but it would not have been to Centralites. Central students broadened their knowledge of these languages through grammar, conversation, and by pre- senting reports and speeches given in the particular language they studied. Whichever language Central students were interested in they were able to expand their command of the language by taking three years of the same language. Spanish teacher, Jerald Graves, replaced Raymond Percival as chairman of language department. Mr. Percival became city-wide language consultant.
