To Be Or ft Mr. Ivan Falk “Reading maketh a full man; conference a ready man; and writing an exact man.” Our English Department gives all students the opportunity to develop the vital skills. In addition to the rudiments of grammar the Department teaches creative writing and literature. The classics are taught on all grade levels, but a further delving into the great works and great authors is provided by the English and American Literature courses. Public Speaking classes ex- pand on the important facet of English which deals with oral expression. Besides regular classroom studies, Seniors added to their knowledge of drama by traveling to Princeton to see performances of A Comedy of Errors, Antigone and A Phoenix Too Frequent.

This year, for the first time, the French and German courses were extended to four years, with an emphasis being placed on contemporary literature. This year also saw the arrival of three new language teachers, Mrs. Jean Dacey and Mrs. Ellen Dunn, who form the new Span- ish Department, and Mrs. Mary Todt, who teaches French.
