ENGLISH English Class Observes Professionals For the first time many students attended a dramatic -comedy performed by professional ac- tors when the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts pre- sented The Subject Was Roses . The professional cast and stage technicians toured Virginia using movable stage setting. All English classes except the freshman, attended the play. They studied the play before the performance, asked the actors questions, and took a test prepared by the Museum. Sophomore English students used a new vocab- ulary book. Unlike the former “Word Power Vocabulary” books with lessons organized by alphabetical order, they studied words arranged in groups with common definitions. English classes reduced in size due to an addi- tion to the faculty of the department. The teachers kept busy studying new textbooks in order to choose new books for next year. American literature was the topic of Junior English college preparatory studies. Eirst semester the classes wrote short stories; second semester they wrote research papers. The students bought Preparing the Research Paper, a small handbook, to guide them while preparing their papers. Senior students studied English literature. Those in the college preparatory program used The Scholastic Series, anthology of stories with a theme involving success. All college preparatory classes, except the eleventh grade students, studied Shakespearean plays. All classes were required to memorize a number of lines from the plays. “OH, YOU HAVE ONE — Miss Mildred Jones passes out the study guides to the stage play. The Subject Was Roses— In addition to being chairman of the English Department, Miss Jones teaches two classes each of Junior and Senior College Preparatory English. MONEYBAGS— Mrs. Aubrey Ross counts out the money for the evening dinner at SIPA. Mrs. Ross sponsors the Peper- gram and teaches four classes of English. When not thinking about her granddaughter, Mrs. Ross likes to play bridge. SNAP IN TIME— “The Spunkees of the Honors English class, composed of Robert Gore, Everette Mitchell, Crisler Lindsay, and Edward Garrison, perform an original ballad for a special Hamlet project. 12

SOCIAL STUDIES History Classes Stress Current Events NOW LOOK YOU GUYS — Coach James Artz goes over the last play in the James Monroe football game, which James Monroe won 39-0. Mr. Artz obtained his B. A. from Shepherd College and his M. ED. from University of Virginia. In addi- tion to teaching 5 periods of World Geography, he sponsors the Varsity Club and the Junior Class. Stressing current events, the social studies de- partment added spice to its courses. Government classes required summaries of important news- paper and magazine articles relevant to their studies each six weeks. Mr. Floyd Binns recorded six speeches on Com- munism at Freedom ' s Foundations, Valley Forge during a summer convention which he attended on a scholarship from the Virginia State Bar Associa- tion. These speeches stimulated an interest in the study of Communism in Government classes. The Junior Town Council gave students a val- uable insight into local government. Nine students were elected in February to observe the Town Council in March and to actually conduct the next March meeting. These students were re- quired to have a B average in Government and not below a C in any class. United States Flistory classes used Cavalier Commonwealth to emphasize Virginia ' s role in America ' s history. World History students learned the ancient and modern government of foreign nations and their various cultures. LOOK AT THIS — Examining the new history books are, clockwise from left, Mr. Floyd Binns, Mr. Michael Schoen- berger. Miss Laura Thornhill, and Mrs. Charles Anderson. Mr. Binns, chairman of the Social Studies Department and Sponsor of the Senior Class, is girls ' Soft- ball Coach. Mr. Schoenberger, who re- ceived his A. B. from William and Mary, teaches five periods of history. In addition to his history classes, he was also assistant J. V. football coach and assistant Varsity Basketball coach. Miss Thornhill, teaches three periods of Latin, two of world his- tory and her hobbies are traveling and reading. Mrs. Anderson, who received her M. A. from Bryn Mawr, teaches four periods of U.S. History and one of gov- ernment. She enjoys reading and music. [ f A 14
