LAMBERT GREENAWALT Head oi Department ENGLISH To TEACH English speech and composition as living, growing, changing mediums of self-expression, so that worthwhile ideas may be presented as effectively as possible, to teach the practical life interpretations of great literature as well as the artistic values always present in the work of literary mas- ters-these in substance, are the goals of the English Department. The present period of great change in ideals and the growing consciousness of man's responsibility to man, is being given close attention in this department. Students are being taught to respect the cultures of all nations, with the aim of eliminating racial prejudices. Through classic and cur- rent literature, radio programs, etc., prob- lems of peace are being studied in relation to the social, economic, political and educa- tional influences that constantly confront a free society. l Standing, Left to Right: Miss Porter, Dr. Danner, Mrs. Brillhart, Mrs. Schlegel, Miss Jacoby, Dr. Haar, Mt.

IN THE MAIN OFFICE you will always find a group of girls busily working sorting reports, making telephone calls, giving information, and being helpful in dozens of other ways. This is our William Penn Office Force which surely deserves credit for doing a swell job in keeping our complicated school records in order. :ull EIMS MISS JOHNSON-School Nurse WE FEEL Miss Johnson deserves the highest Commendation for unfailing devotion and sym- pathetic advices. Beside acting as health advisor to the entire school personnel, she also holds the position of School Nursing Superviser of York City Schools. 19 MR. GOOD-Custodian HAVE YOU ever stopped to realize what our school would look like if the janitors weren't here for a week? I'm afraid we wouldn't be very anxious to identify it as our own William Penn, so next time we see one of them working busily letls thank him for keeping our school so clean and tidy.
