foreign jCangauges Promote Understanding Modern communication and transportation methods have given the study of foreign lan- guages added impetus. VHS offers three years of Latin, two years of French, and two years of Spanish. Students learn the mechanics of these languages as they read, write, hear, and speak them. They become acquainted with literary works of other tongues and gain an understanding of cultures and peo- ples different from their own. MRS. WILLIAM McCLURE, standing left, attended Western Kentucky College and received her AB and did additional study at the University of Georgia. She teaches two classes of Latin I and three classes of Latin III. She also is the sponsor of the Latin Club. MRS. HUGH BROWN received her AB in English at the Uni- versity of Alabama. She has done additional work at the University of Virginia and Columbia University. She teaches four classes of Latin I and one class of Latin III. Also she is the sponsor of the OUTLOOK.
