Foreign languages appear more than ever before in the newspapers and in the magazines ne read. They are being used daily in our lives. Therefore the study of a foreign language has become increasingly important. The World has realized that we must learn to communicate with all people if we are to keep the peace. New languages are being studied in our schools. Among them is the Russian language. This year, Edmondson High School became one of the first public schools in the City of Baltimore to offer a course in the Russian language as part of its regular curriculum. The Foreign Language Department of Edmondson stressed to an even greater degree than before the oral aspects of the language and the learning of the cultural history of the land of origin of the language studied.

Edmondson students enjoyed and were impressed by the projects created this year by our Art Department. Under the direction of Miss Bertha Kelley and Miss .lane Murray, members of the art classes contributed decorations for all school functions. material for cases in the hall. and posters for all occasions. The art major classes worked on landscapes on scratch- board and made Christmas cards using the silk screen method. They studied figure proportion and put their knowledge to work in pastel portrait drawing and figure illustration. The students developed potteifs skills by working with ceramics and developed their talents for fashion illustration. water color landscapes. and oil paint- ing. A new project taken on this year by the Art Department was providing art exhibits in the cafeteria. These exhibits are to be changed periodically and new displays put in their place.
