LABELLE FRANCE . .. la nd of charm The IWHS language program offers two years of French. Grammar and elementary composition form the matter of the first year course: advanced composition and reading of standard classics are required of second year students. The universality of French encourages students to master the tech- niques of the written and spoken language, and modern texts are designed to develop an apprecia- tion of French culture and a knowledge of French life. The French classes are conducted by Sister Ieanne de Matel. Carmen Novoa, Mary lVIcGoohan, and Catherine Sampson supplement class work in French I with record- ings by Henri Peyre and Mrs. H. Peyre. They are using the RCA Victor Modern French by Sound , a course by Professor lean Boorsch of Yale. La Croisade has arrived! . . .
