Speech Poise, voice, and clarity of expression were only a few of the qualities developed in speech class. Students overcome their nervousness by giving various demonstrations and oc- casional extemporaneous speeches. Speeches were sometimes taped to give students an opportunity to hear their own speech as it sounded to the rest of the class. Many were amazed to hear how they really sounded. Remedial Reading Mrs. Holzapfel was the head of the remedial reading classes. These sessions helped the slow reader develop better reading skills and understand what he had read. The program is under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Educational Act. FRAZE AND TIMMONS Union City, Indiana 23 HESSLER'S CARPET LINOLEUM COMPANY Union City, Indiana
