ENGLISH English teachers, Miss Edith Cutting, Mrs. Rose Sullivan, head of the depart- ment, and Mr. Kenneth Kintner, Athletic Director and English teacher, talk about the basic staples of a properly balanced English course. Appreciation of literature, improvement of our own speech, and correct usage of the English language are the aims of the Englishdepartment. As every student is required to take English, this goal is a common one. A student's speech is molded by his courses in high school, and a rich program is offered by which he can benefit. Our understanding of literature influences our future tastes in this art. Poise and confidence gained through drama classes make .us more responsible citizens. Below, Mrs. Alice Tashjian, Maroon advisor, hears all about what's cooking from Miss Juan Doerner, dramatics teacher, for use in the next issue of the school paper.
