English Curriculum Tries New Approach Linguistics, the study of words, was introduced to English students in seventh and tenth grades. Newly adopted textbooks with a linguistic slant aided junior and senior school students in understanding grammar. Literature offerings underwent change. Paperbacks, such as the Diary of Anne Frank and The Old Man and the Sea supplemented pre¬ scribed courses and anthologies used as texts. English III and IV classes con¬ centrated on success in writing. Managing thoughts on paper with clarity and economy kept juniors and seniors at their writing. Miss Lynn Ludewig, Miss Sandra Gibbs, Mrs. Stella Bentley, Miss Janet Jensen, Miss Danise Vossos, who had practiced teaching with Mrs. Dorothy Goldman last year, and Mr. William Wagner, all new teach¬ ers, aided students in mastering the two new approaches. Caesar, Dominic Sapone, dies again for sophomore English classes: Conspirators are John Vaughn, Linda Williams, Henry McGee, and Diane Martinson. Works of Greek art are displayed by Miss Monnix for World Literature. Shellee Burrows defends a paper to which she has applied disciplines for gaining objec¬ tivity in her writing.
