These courses are developmental reading, literature, creative writing, journal- ism, annual production, speech, and drama, Teaching and acquainting students with the various functions of these arts are their purposes. This year, under the supervision of Mrs. Lucille Breneman, the drama class presented A Cup of Tea, a humorous play, for the school. This was later presented at the an- nual Speech Festival and was rated outstand- ing in almost every phase. Students from speech classes also participated in this festival.
