By ERNEST THEODOSSIN and SHIRLEY CROOG "The fourth semester proficiency requirement in the University will affect the high school language teaching very little," according to Prof. William Merhab, whose field is Romance Languages and the training of Modern Language Teachers for the secondary schools. "The goals of language teaching' in high school andcollege are the same. The difference lies in the level of maturity and experience of the student," Prof. Merhab con- tinued.

Use Audio-Visual Aids "In a few years, every well equipped high school in the country will very likely have its own lan- guage laboratory and will make greater use of audio-visual aids," Prof. Merhab continued. "There has been a great deal of increased interest and enthusiasm in high school language teaching. An indication of this is that teach- ers now feel it is important and necessary that they spend some time in the country whose language they teach." The former approach gave pri- mary interest to reading. Oral ability was secondary. Today the goal is a speaking and reading knowledge, plus a grasp of the cul- ture. Teach Fewer Languages "The number of languages taught in high school is not as great as in colleges. To my knowledge, there are no high school courses offered in Chinese or Japanese in the con- tinental United States. "However, in many areas of thhe nation, numerous persons speak the language of their European ances- tors, in addition to English. In cer- tain parts of the country particular languages are emphasized. For ex- ample, stress is placed on Span- ish in the southwestern part of the United States, French in New Eng- land," Prof. Merhab §aid. Illustrate Customs "Every attempt is made to in- troduce the student to objects which illustrate the climate, atmos- phere, and temperament of the country. I've used Mexican statu- ettes to demonstrate bullfights, al- ligator skins to illustrate wild life -dozens of foreign-made materi- als," Prof. Merhab said.
