Speech promotes student interests The speech classes at Grosse Pointe South gave students practice in public speaking and helped them develop their views on subjects such as student campus uprisings, the estab- lishment, foreign affairs, and other subjects relevant to them. Mr. Nelson and Mrs. Kot- cher taught these semester courses this year. To expand the speech curriculum there was a BCL speech program which Mrs. Kotcher sponsored. The four schools in the BCL which participated were Grosse Pointe South, Mon- roe, Fordson, and Highland Park. These schools held monthly meetings to debate and speak on programmed materials. A final meet- ing was held at the end of each semester in Ann Arbor where the students brought reso- lutions from each school to end the discus- sions at the previous meetings. This meeting was set up like a congress and gave these 50 students from Grosse Pointe South practice in parliamentary procedure. Left: Jay Marrs gives a panto mime for speech class.
