Latin III class, Miss Whitley prepared for her students to hear a tape of Cicero's orations. Mrs. Gentry always talks to her classes from this speaker stand. ENGLISH, LATIN, SPANISH ARE STUDIED THORCJUGHLY English, Latin, and Spanish were learned thoroughly, as Mr. Ragland, Miss Whitley, Mrs. Gen- try, Miss Foreman, Mr. Hopson, Mrs. McMurry, Mrs. Emery, and Mr. Gaines will testify. Of course, English was a required course, this explains its large attendance. Both grammar and literature were studied in English class, junior, English students concentrated on American litera- ture, and seniors studied English literature. Familiar sounds of quotations from Macbeth, echoed through the halls as senior English students struggled valiantly through memory Work to pass the course. Junior students frantically rummaged through reference bookslfor added information on Thor- eau, Emerson, or Dickinson to complete the semester with their American Literature notebooks. Besides the usual first and second year Latin classes, a third year class was initiated this year for a group of students who wanted to learn more than the usual high school Latin . . . or those who just couldn't bear the thought of a school year without Miss Whitley, the Latin III teacher. H mv, First and second year Spanish were stud- ied this year. Those who had taken Latin had less trouble with it than those who had not, since Spanish is based on Latin. - Mr. Ragland's senior English class answered questions, questions, and more questions on Macbeth.

Carole SENIORS MIX WORK AND PLAY T0 THE ENDQ This was it - the senior year of high school. This was the crowning glory of twelve years, and it was great. Yes, it was enjoyed to the hilt as everyone had hoped it would be. Actually the work part of the combination 24 overshadowed the play, but even it was fun. Homecoming was play this year, except to the juniors, who gave everyone else a grand time. Lessons were certainly work with little play about them' the Prom was wonderful. Eacn senior felt 7
