Students Improve Techniques in Communication One of the essential elements in life is the art of conveying ideas and opinions. An enlarged English de- partment works diligently to teach students good writ- ing habits and to give them an important literary background. Speech provides training and experience in interpretation and expressing thoughts and opinions before a group. T.R.H.S. is proud of its new library with the capacity of approximately 100 students.

Miller get an inside view of In order to understand the rapid changes in our modern world, it becomes almost necessary to study sci- ences. Research and study have greatly expanded the fields of medicine, agriculture, and engineering. The hor- izons have stretched beyond the planet on which we live into space. Because of these advancements, biology, chem- istry, and physical sciences require greater emphasis. To facilitate student research in the study of plants, a green- house has been added to the biology department. Steve Franklin and his classmates concentrate intently on the physics instructions.
