To improve the writing ability ot Harriton's students, Mrs. Eva Murphy sponsored an English Composition course. The participants wrote extempo- raneously on subiects linked to their English IV work. The advantages of Senior Special English, taught by Miss 'Sheely, were extended to Juniors in another course taught by Mrs. Murphy. As in the last three years, Psychology, a course open to selected Seniors, was taught by Dr. Theodore Copeland. 17

fi Q 1 Y ss As time prog'esses, Harriton's curriculum expands as ideas become out-of-date, or as new techniques are discovered. ln its fourth year, Harr- iton included a number of new courses, and continued to teach special subjects already included in the curriculum. A more modern chemistry course, taught by Mr. Harold Ferguson, gave a challenge to the more scientifically inclined students this year. The sen- iors were given the opportunity to further their progress in mathematics, when Algebra Ill was incorporated into the curriculum for the tirst time. 16

OFFICE AIDES Almost all Harriton students are familiar with the busy secretaries who keep the ofllce work moving steadily and efficiently. These secretaries always seem to find time for a cheerful disposition and a readiness to help students and teachers alike. To help lighten the burden of this work somewhat, a number of students act as office aides. A new student service group at Harriton, the Fire Marshalls, also aids the administra- tion, but in the field of the fire alarm prac- tice sessions. ln the event of a real alarm, their duties would be very important.
