MISS MARY C. FOLEY Head English English has never been considered more important than it is today in this nuclear age. The need for clear, direct communication and true under- standing and respect for the individual and groups can be fostered by train- ing in effective speech and writing and in the reading skills. Literature, both classic and modern, is Hthe laboratory course in human nature which helps everyone to understand humanity, past and present. This year the English Department has made use of films, Hlmstrips. recordings of poetry and plays, and speed reading devices. An overhead projector has been used to illustrate the structure and use of language in student themes and tests. English is not only basic to all other subjects, but is a dynamic course in itself. The New York Regents examination for seniors this year is called Comprehensive English, an apt name for the goal of our Iohn Marshall English Department. MR. IOI-IN ALLEN MRS. ANNA BROWN MRS.
