No, this isn't an assembly program, but lmogene Krahling's classroom built in the old auditorium balcony-an example of over-crowding in Willmor High.

Interpreters of Literature, Grammar No education is complete without the interpretation of literature ond grammar by our English teachers. With their help we learn to appreciate novels, plays, short stories, and poetry. lt is with their guidance and skilled direction we learn the correct use of the English language. We master the art of expressing ourselves through our daily assignments and yearly term papers. Our English classes are also designed to help us gain better vocal expression. When we give reports, present short dramas or contribute to the class discussion, we receive practice in developing our speaking ability. Always ready to lend a helping hand, English instructors often serve as counselors as well as educators. Our interpreters are truly an important part of our school. The type of stage used in Shakespeare's time is one phases of English taught in Helen Peterson's classes. mn.. l gl.: ty xl N ii 4. of the f. ig i 'J l.. tk if .5 x
