Attendance jumps as JjUSiriGSS new course offered Mr. Dale Goon, business depart- ment chairman, has many responsi- bilities. He takes care of all the books and supplies. When the busi- ness machines are broken, he makes sure they get repaired. One of his other duties is to make out teacher ' s programs. There is one new course this year. It is an Introduction to Data Process- ing. This course familiarizes stu- dents with the key punch, flow charts and other material. A total of 1,089 students are en- rolled in at least one business course, commented Mr. Goon. He also mentioned the fact that busi- ness classes are not being taught any differently. Some classes connected with the business department are typing, accounting, shorthand, sec- retarial and clerical practice, busi- ness law, consumer education, and data processing. Business helps students develop at least one skill that will be of use af- ter graduation. Advanced shorthand students listen t o dictation tapes to improve their shorthand speed. Most stu- dents can do over 100 words after they get through with the year.

Approximately 90 students were involved in Drama and Stagecraft headed by Mr. Douglas Stark. The Stagecraft made props, helped with costumes and found out what went on behind the curtain while a play was going on in front. Drama was divided into two classes. Advanced drama was for students who wanted to better their ability in acting. Beginning drama was for students just learning about the history of drama and learning how to act. Mr. Stark stressed show- ing enthusiasm whenever they acted. Mr. Stark and students put on four plays throughout the year. The sea- son began with Harvey, presented in November and Story Theatre in December. Then in March came the musical, On a Clear Day, followed by the last production The Price presented in May. The students put many hours, day and night, into the plays they pro- duced for the school. ■p Enthusiasm: main UrflmS goal of students Sophomores Anita Salazar and Vickie Sourers of first year drama, act out part of a play on stage.
