LANGUAGES OFFER OPPORTUNITIES Each new invention inthe fields of com- munication and transportation shrinks the world and brings countries closer to- gether. Some students desire knowledge of the language and customs of neighbor - ing countries, and for this reason, Hunt- ington offers French and Spanish. MRS. N. GRANDBERRY The Spanish class follows Mr. Lawrence's reading as he dem- onstrates how the lesson for today should be read. MR. D, LAWRENCE Madame Grandberry's class has the advantage of meet - ing in the language lab to gain experience in listen- ing to conversations in French. MISS L, FRAZIER 25
