Religion classes and individual or group guidance for her own class, various academic subjects, and clubs with which she may work fill her school schedule. Though occupied with many and varied tasks, Miss Monica Wohlfert, Miss Nancy March, and Miss Doro- thy Beal tind on their calendars at least one activity in common. Each one-Miss March in Algebra I and Il classes, Miss Wohlfert in Geometry, and Miss Beal in Algebra ll-each one helps in some Way to enlighten girls, to prepare them for the future, by unfolding to them the mysteries of mathematics.

SISTER EDITH, S.P. Art Varied Talents Expand IHS Curriculum Like every school, Immaculata includes in its course of study the academic subjects of history and science, English and modern languages. But the varied talents of Father Thomas Duffy, Sister Edith, and Doctor Lejkova improve its course of study, expand it, and round it out. The outstanding physical education classes includ- ing tumbling, calisthenics, and trampoline, plus a full calendar of sporting events are the contribution of Doc.,' Sister Edith olTers a full series of art classes, be- ginning with a general study of forms and techniques in freshman year, and including practical application and more detail in second, third, and fourth years. Since in a girls' school, many students look to mar- riage as a career, Father Dufly's Christian Marriage Course is logical and invaluable in giving them a prac- tical as well as a spiritual view of wedded life.

Sister Mary Roger and Sister Gertrude Helene give freshmen and sophomores a firm foundation in gram- mar, composition, and literature. Juniors and seniors evaluate American and English literature under the direction of Sister Marie Jeanette and Mrs. Julia Terry. The schoolls newspaper and yearbook provide an incentive for quality in journalistic pursuits. The Im- maculata News receives valuable guidance from its adviser, Sister Marie Jeanette. The untiring efforts of Sister Gertrude Helene encourage the initiative of the Guerin staff to produce an annual of merit. Focused upon the needs of each student, the IHS library, under the skilled direction of Sister Myra, teems with activity of research and scholarly pursuits. In this age of fleeting pace, it is necessary for the student to acquire a facility in relating her ideas with an air of poise and self-assurance. Through speech and drama, Miss Barbara Von Wald imparts those skills.
