Every effort was made to cover all phases of reading, writing, speaking, listening, and thinking in the ENGLISH DEPARTMENT. The two maior literary works included in Sophomore English were Shakespeare's Julius Caesar and Charles Dickens' Tale of Two Cities. After Thorough readings, discussions and quizzes, hidden talents were given an opportunity to reveal themselves in skits. Aware of the stress that is put on Eng- lish in today's society, the students took active part in the annual Speech Festi- val. Supplementary activities included a special reading program, essay contest, the Lay Reader program, and plays. Two new courses, World Literature and Seman- tics, were introduced this year and a course in first year Dramatics has been planned for the fall of 1965. MR. WILLIAM HALE Chr., English Dept.
