Communication: The Key To Diplomacy The future of our students will be greatly influenced by foreign language knowledge. The student who knows one or more foreign languages is better prepared for his future socially and culturally as well as financially. Language opportunities in business, government, and other services are immense, and the Ocean Township High School is preparing students to take advantage of these opportunities. In the approaching decade our nations well being will more and more depend upon our ability to communicate effectively with the rest of the world. In order to relate diplomatically and economically, it will be necessary for our people to have the skills needed to deal with others in their native languages. The future of our country will lie in our ability to interact competently with nations worldwide, and the study of foreign languages is a valuable step in this direc- tion. RIGHT: We must learn to speak their language. FAR RIGHT: To achieve total cultural indepen- dence, we must know what the world is saying. Av X f Elsa Lake

Our Government Will Continue To Grow The mathematics department of Ocean Township High School is continually con- centrating on and progressing with the times. We see before us an age where in- creasingly sophisticated computer hardware is becoming more and more commonplace, making the availability of educated, capable mathematicians an ob- vious necessity. The latest field on our ' country's horizon is that of personal com- Leona Burke John Best puters, and our math department is striving to encourage the excellence in mathematics necessary to enable our stu- dents to share in the wide range of possibilities open to them in this area. Our school looks forward to joining the ranks of the many who benefit from com- puter use. One of the hopes for the future is a computer resource laboratory which would be at the service of students and faculty alike. By exposing math students and others to hands on computer work, as well as stressing fundamental mathematics, our math department will be preparing students to be a productive part of tomorrow's rapidly growing world. FAR RIGHT: Computers will run the society of the future. RIGHT: New knowledge insures our govern- ment's ability to thrive and grow in stature. ii i r u Vincent Meola :9 1 44 V. .
