The English department is further divided into three branch- es of study: general English, business English, and journalism. JOHN WOODALL The English department has as its main purpose the teaching of practical every- day English and writing. This department also tries to broaden the student's mind in the fields of finer literature. Since each student is required to take English four years, this is considered one of the most important departments in high school. Our foreign language department is still in its infancy and, as yet, includes only two languages: Latin and Spanish. The language department sponsors the English Club, Latin Club, and Spanish Club to better acquaint the student with the finer points of these languages.

They are: American History, World History, Journalism, Social Living, Problems of Democracy, and Geography. This department held a student election this year just a few days before the national election. We had our own Stevenson and Eisenhower, and were priviledged to choose between them. fWe chose Stevensonlj The social science department is especially designed for students who have varied interests in social issues, research, and public or social issues.
