VI.. yur-s 'I 'fda Conducted for the student with a keen interest in the art and craft of fiction and non-fiction, Miss Petrella's Creative Writing class here gives Janice Richards constructive criticism for her first draft. Miss Santoro's Problems of Amer- ican Democracy class, which con- siders the major social, political, and economic problems that confront our nation today, faces its own eco- nomic problem while trying to raise funds for a spring exchange trip with students from Roosevelt High School, Wyandotte, Michigan.

Miss Shanley shows colored slides of Anne Hathaway's cottage in connection with the study of Shakespeare.
