Languages I HAVEN ' T SEEN THIS ISSUE YET ANN BOGART Sandusky High School B.A., Albion College English Latin Freshman Class Advisor The Language Department has two qualified and enthusiastic teachers. Each has her own style of teaching not only language but the culture which originally brought about the widespread use of the language. The Latin Classes learn more than just the lan¬ guage, they also learn about the lives of famous viri and feminae of Rome. The Spanish Classes learn the language plus the customs and life of the Mexican people. The first year students learn the vocab¬ ulary which they will use for their conversational Spanish.

Music THE MUSIC IS PUT AWAY ONCE MORE. ONE, TWO, THREE. The music organizations have had a very fruitful year in performances. The band had a new director and under his leadership participated in halftime shows at the football games as well as doing concerts. Miss Stephens has kept the Girls ' Glee Club moving smoothly. They, too have par¬ ticipated in different activities. Miss Pryor has had a very busy year directing the Junior High Chorus and teaching elementary music. The music department has been very much a part of the activities and students wel¬ come the contributions of the bands and vocal groups.
