world interdependence, cultures revealed through foreign LANGUAGES Gratias tibi ago, muy bien, bon|our, ami and auf wedersehn all became ac- cepted sayings in the halls. This came as a result of more than fifty per cent of the student body being enrolled in foreign languages. Tapes, word games, pictures, and other devices were used for a better understanding of the lan- guage and for enlarging the knowledge of foreign cultures. Through their stud- ies, students were able to realize more and more our interdependence on foreign countries. 3 f ' 1 k i top left) AN ALUMNUS OF the College of William and Mary with a B.A. degree and M.S.M., Mr. William Gatling sponsors the Marshals and Truckers Hi-Y; he teaches French, (bottom left) Mrs. Joann Densmore, a graduate of Miami University, teaches both German and Spanish and sponsors the German Club, (right) Latin V scholar Gary Pilgreen instructs first year Latin students with the aid of vocabulary cards; as part of his course work, he teaches under the supervision of Mr. Moore. 28

INTRAMURAL sports take on increased emphasis in gym classes Will anyone interested in either girl ' s or boy ' s intromurols please sign up in the appropriate gym by the end of school today? Such announcements, along with posters, helped to focus the students ' attention to the program of intramural sports. Amazing numbers of students participated in such sports as tennis, table tennis, horseshoes, basket- ball and football; most of these were for both girls and boys. The success of the program was due to both new equip- ment and good supervision. The sports further served to carry out the depart- ment ' s purpose in physical training through individual and team effort. (top) WHAT GOES UP, must come down!
