.151 MN. Students Explore English teachers of Paschal follow various and unusual schedules of teaching. Many facets of the English language are studied. The study of English is a very vital part of every students curriculum. The English teachers play a definite part in the develop- ment of higher education and knowledge at Paschal. Freshmen have an intense study of grammar. Literature studies include the sea-faring poem of the Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Other writings include Old Man and the Sea and Light in the Forest. Julius Caesar, a famous play by William Shake- speare, is deeply dwelled into by sophomore English students. The novel of Silas Marner is read and dis- cussed. Grammar is studied, and creative writing is emphasized by many teachers. Junior students set out on a course of American literature. Many students follow The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain. Juniors face their first term theme in the spring. ln their fourth year of accredited English, seniors explore the world of English literature. The study of The Mayor of Casterbridge is enioyed by many senior students. Again a term theme must be written, this time during the fall semester. An introduction to cultural English plays an im- portant part in everyone's education. Field trips sponsored by the English department enhance the students' outlook on the many aspects of English, and make the subiect more appealing. Macbeth was enioyed by interested students of all grades during October, and The Taming of the Shrew was also pre- sented in October to the freshmen. The maior success of these trips has encouraged English teachers to continue similar programs in future years.

Librarians Aid Sear R. L. Paschal's library has a new look - a new- ness characterized by an augmentation of materials supplementary to information found in and a change in the librarian staff Amid the con fusion anal excitement of the beginning of the i969- l97O school year, Mrs. Elaine Reeves ioined the library staff and contributed greatly to the rapid creation of an excellent resource center. However, before complete organization became possible, Mrs Reeves and Mrs. Mildred Windell aided the students with the creation of Howdy Week booths. Mrs. Reeves now works in conjunction with Mrs. Windell with the organization and arrangement of shelves of new and old books, newspapers, magazines and pamphlets. In addition to printed materials, the librarians are responsible for films and filmstrips, miscellaneous other visual aids, screens, projectors and related equipment. In order to properly care for this equipment, the librarians train capable assistants to accompany and to carefully operate all proiectors. Efficient management of a school library requires cooperation and endless hours of work. These requisites are fulfilled by R. L. Paschal's staff of capable library assistants and qualified librarians. Well, they don't have LORD OF THE FLIES, but I guess THE CAT IN THE HAT will do, grins senior Irene Cadahia. for Knowledge Mrs. Mildred Windell Mrs. Bonnie Elaine Reeves Librarian Library Assistant Junior Tom Chenault pauses to take advantage of the quiet retreat the library offers from the rapid pace of classes and other school activities.
