Speed and Accuracy Pay off It takes many hours of concentration to be able to pound a typewriter correctly, balance an account accurately, or read and write shorthand efficiently. Accuracy and efficiency are the key words in the commercial department, and all the students strive to obtain them. A teacher who seems very strict and business¬ like is Frieda Dell. She teaches typing, business training, and business law. She received her B. S. degree from Michigan State Normal College at Ypsilanti. In her leisure time Mrs. Dell enjoys reading. The faculty financial adviser for the school bank is Rae E. Johnston. He graduated from the Uni¬ versity of Michigan where he received his B. S. and M. A. degrees. He also attended Ferris Institute. Frieda V. Dell Bookkeeping and business training are the subjects he teaches. He claims that reading is the pastime that wins top place on his list. Typing and shorthand classes are under the direction of Alice Kenaga. She attended Ferris In¬ stitute, Michigan State Teachers College, and re¬ ceived her B. S. degree from Central Michigan College of Education. When it comes to a pastime, Mrs. Kenaga states that gardening is a winner in her eye. Rae E. Johnston Alice Kenaga

Clear Minds and Trim Bodies When the ceiling in the assembly room vibrates up and down, you know that the phy¬ sical education classes are taking their calisthenics or, maybe, playing a hard game of bas¬ ketball. All freshmen, sophomores, and juniors are required to take gym where they learn how to keep their minds clear and their bodies trim. By being a player on a team in these classes one learns how to cooperate with others. Teaching civics and physical education, advising the Tri-Hi-Y, and sponsoring intra-mural activities keep Mary Fica busy. She received her B. S. de¬ gree from Central Michigan College of Education. Miss Fica is very fond of sports and states that summer sports, swimming, and tennis take the winning spot ,on her pastime list. The man who helps the boys build fine phy¬ siques is Richard C. Young. He teaches physical education, American history, health and sociology; he coaches the reserve football and basketball teams and the tennis team. Michigan State College is where Mr. Young received his B. S. degree. He is the Ski Club adviser and senior class adviser. Any sports activity is a winner on Mr. Young’s list. Mary Fica Richard C.
