l . X,-fa XJ, X A MESSAGE FROM MR. I-IESS In the Preamble to the Constitution it is stated that we are to promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings at liberty to ourselves and our posterity, which makes us aware of the democratic values now being de- fended by a global war. When the clash of steel is ended, the world will look to us to build a world of justice for mankind everywhere. Prepared- ness, then, must include an educational program of world interests. We trust that those who are leaving our schools today will not only be prepared to defend the principles for which we stand, but furnish the leadership to promote the general welfare and secure blessings anew, through democratic procedures, for the establishment ot peace upon the face of the earth.

Mafalda Croce Margaret Haines Frank Lucostic Olga Toth ENGLISH DEPARTMENTX! vi The English Department has a three-fold target on which its sights are trained. It aims to teach the students of Redstone High School to read well, to speak well, to write well. For four years, drills in grammar are stressed, until the use of correct English becomes as automatic as the fam- ous Rockette precision line. To supplement this exercise, samples of great literature are offered for individual enjoyment. Ivanhoe, Silas Marner, Childe Harold, and Macbeth are introduced to youthful readers, together with aids for their appreciation. A special project of the 'English department this year was the addition of a recording machine to department equipment. Miss Croce's sophomore classes purchased the Orson Welles recording of The Merchant of Venice, and the Basil Rathbone production of A Christmas Carol. The growth of this phase of language study should see a corresponding increase in the ability of pupils to speak well. Mr. Lucostic's entrance into the army in December brought several new faces into the English Department, unfortunately, however, too late for representaton in this yearbook. First there was Mr. George Alberts, he was succeeded by Mrs. Wilkey, finally Mr. Eugene Shepley was introduced. 'D l Gene Angeloni r William Burns A LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT The study of language is an interesting one. Under the supervision of Mrs. Angeloni, our French instructor, the language department has expanded to include its newest member, Spanish. This instruction in Span- ish will be valuable to our future citizens by aiding them to understand the languages of Pan-American countries. Mr. Burns, our Latin specialist, has also been kept busy with his extra duties as assistant Principal and Hall Patrol sponsor. Quien espanol sabe? lci on parle francais, et Latina lingua est nota. Adios! Adieu! Vale! Page 11 X , M- . Snyder 'wi tl ,QQ Ei 4
