As the 1969-1970 school year started, the French classes had a new teacher, Mr. Clark. The first year students learned to speak and understand simple spoken French. After completion of the course, they should be able to carry on a basic conversation. Em- phasis was placed on vocabulary and composition for the second year French students. They used newspapers, television programs, magazines, and books. Third year French students studied grammar. They had talk sessions in which the students talked about current issues in France. Andre Jacob! visited one day in the Spanish classes to tell his country and answer questions. They made tacos in food labs, as well as having tasting parties of other Spanish foods in class. Also, they subscribed to the Sunday Mexico City newspaper and enjoyed reading them. This year there was a change in Mrs. Donelson ' s journalism class. Instead of taking a final exam, they prepared an issue of the On Looker . Cathy Eberly escapes from a mouse to the top of a desk, for a pan- tomine in speech class. Jeff Kellar uses the language tape for Spanish lab.
