COMMERCIAL Miss ATHIE MANOS-Shorthand and Typing Mr. AMD. SWANSON-Typing and Book- keeping The commercial subjects are useful in many fields other than business. They do prepare a person for entrance into the busi- ness world, but they also teach skills that can be applied to other activities. Typing is useful in high school and even more so in college. Also many college students take notes in shorthand while listening to lec- tures. The general principles of business can be applied to many situations to keep records straight and to work more efficient- ly. PHYSICAL EDUCATIGN Mr. RICHARD BOOTON -Boys' Physical Education and Coach Mrs. MABEL BISHOP-Girls' Physical Education Besides good food, medicine, and proper rest, it takes physical exercise to keep in good health. Some people are more naturally athletic than others, but all can receive the benefits of physical educa- tion classes. Exercises are far more effec- tive when taught by and done under the supervision of a skilled teacher. The finer points of many types of athletic games are taught from the standpoints of both the participant and the spectator.

FINE ARTS Mrs. CAROL HURR-Music Miss CHARLENE PETERSON-Art Mr. NORMAN Beville -Band Many of those things which add to the fulness of our lives are classified as the fine arts. Art and music are the two subjects of this group that are taught in Golden. In these classes we learn to appreciate good art and good music and to participate in the fine projects and activities carried out by the music and art departments. PRACTICAL ARTS Mr. ALFRED PERRELLA -Shop and Mechan- ical Drawing Mr. VEINON WHITING -Distributive Edu- cation and Office Practice Mrs. KATHLEEN TOLOS-Home Economics Of all the courses in school, the ones that can be put to immediate practical use are shop, home economics, and distributive education. Shop gives a boy the feeling of doing something useful and the feeling of accomplishment. Many girls in home economics put their skill to work as soon as they go home. Disuibutive education students receive help and instruction in the everyday problems that they face on their after-school jobs.

COOKS Mrs. MONTGOMERY Mrs. BACHATEY Mrs. DARDEN Mrs. RENKE-Head Cook Every morning as we pass by the lunch- room, we smell delightful odors eminating from it. The question always goes around, I wonder what we 're having for lunch to- day? Whatever we do have, our cooks cook it to perfection. They give us a great variety and we all enjoyed the special Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners they made for us. ls' , MATH AND SCIENCE Mr. ARTHUR PAPENFUS -Biology Mr. LOREN CHRISTENSEN -Chemistry and Physics Mr. DARREL l-IAFLING -A lgebra Aeronautics, Geometry, and Coach Mr. EDWARD HERBER-Algebra and Geometry tions of a technical education are the sciences and mathematics. Vital facts a- bout the world around us are taught in the science classes, biology, chemistry, and physics. A working knowledge of algebra and advanced math are taught in the three different algebra courses. Aeronautics teaches the fundamentals of flight and airplane design. Figures both plane and solid are studied in the geometry and trigonometry courses. From these classes come our scientists and mathematicians of tomorrow who work to create a more plea- sant and easier world in which to live. CUSTODIAN S Mr. CHARLES BISHOP Mr. CLIFFORD BUSSERT Not Pictured: Mr. NICK MATTIVE-Head Cutodian Mr. NATHEN KIRKLAND With the new Golden High School our custodians have a terrifically hard job. But every morning when we come to SCh0O1 we find the floors spic and span. All repairs are made promptly and cheerfully. We had two custodians added to our staff later in the year when it became apparent that we would need more help to keep our huge school clean. In our modern world a technical educa- tion is of utmost importance. The founda-
