Aller Anfang ist schwer. Languages At present three languages other than English are offered in the curriculum: Latin, French, and German. As foreign lan- guages are included in the college entrance curricula and not the business, the majority of students in this school have no knowledge of any language other than their own. Nevertheless, students who take other languages usually are more proficient in the use of the English language. I .cl ,ff 9 1:3 all 'ff' 'ms 'I7 MISS NAN O'REILLY MISS KATHERINE SCHULZ GP?

Art Pk .-H A I X 5 I as l uv' Learning the art of ceramics MR. RAY HELENBROOK variety of interesting courses is offered in this department, for both beginners and advanced students. A tour of the front third floor hall and art rooms clearly indicates the accomplishments of art students. Stu- dents learn the media of paints, pastel crayons, charcoal, pencil, and pen. They may also learn the popular art of ceramic making or the fundamentals of the drafting board. Music MR. HAROLD HULL Musical tyros ere, perhaps, is the noisicst department in the school. From the back of the first floor, issue, at all hours of the day, sounds both harmonious and dissonant, both vocal and instrumental. During the four years of high school life, many a student has begun as a struggling novice and later had the satisfaction of really being able to handle a Woodwind or a brass instrument. Riverside's band has a really fine reputation. 18
