Schedule Of Language Classes Told By SANDRA SPEAR Associate Editor Have you thought that you have been hearing a little gibering late ly, when students from the foreign language departments practice their declensions and conjugations while walking the halls? If you have, you would probably like to know what some of these students do in class, and out of class. For instance, Mrs. Helen Hoff man's Latin division has been ex ceedingly busy preparing scripts for the television series called "Come-In School.". The first tele cast, which was claimed an ex cellent one by many authorities, was presented over KOTI Monday, October 21. It was concerned with building a background of the in teresting history, geography, and statistical data of our own Klam ath County. Research for the proj ect was done by the students them selves. The second presentation will be November 4. Mrs. Hoffman teaches Latin in Room 324, devoting the first two periods to second year, and the entire afternoon to first. She has been teaching at KUHS for 14 years. The German Department under the direction of Mr. John Kuchler in Room 219, second and fifth pe riods, is also very active with second year work and is receiving valuable instruction in grammar and vocabulary. They are also reading original German folk stor ies. This will be the fourth year German has been taught at Klam ath Union High bchool. This Is Mr. Kuchler's first year at KUHS. He formerly taught at Condon High School in Condon, Oregon. He has his B.A. degree and will soon begin working on his masters degree. The French and Spanish depart ments taught by Mr. Raymond La bos, who has been here for four years, are busy with their assign ments and class work. Spanish is taught every year and French is staggered.
