She (along with the clerk, secretary, and book¬ keeper working behind the scenes) may well be a product of Woburn High’s Business Education Department. There are a tremendous number of job oppor¬ tunities available to well-qualified applicants. Prep¬ aration for these careers has always been the pri¬ mary aim of the business education curriculum which now boasts of a new course — Consumer Education. This course, along with the traditional typing, stenography, and bookkeeping, is now available to all our young, aspiring secretaries and “homines d’affairs” who hope one day to venture into the business world. Mr. Marashio offers some valuable assistance. 20

Leuci Fitchburg State College B.S. Industrial Arts ENGINEER’S PLANNING BOARD Our new Technical Drawing Department will offer three courses specifically designed to prepare students for an engineering career. First, basic fundamentals will be described in Technical Drawing I: advanced students tak¬ ing Technical Drawing II will actually go beyond the tracing stage to the drawing of plans. Finally, in Pre-Engineering Drawing, students will learn the uses and application of technical drawing. In no time at all, we will be able to point proudly to bridges and roads built by graduates of Woburn High School. INDUSTRY ADVANCES “Interpretation of Industry in the School” is the basic philosophy of the Industrial Arts Department. The de¬ partment itself is sub-divided into four major sections: woodworking, metal shop, technical drawing, and graphic arts. In each division, new, heavier, and more professional equipment is being introduced for use by advanced students. For example, woodworking will go into both hand-and machine-tool operations; metalworking will even include welding, padding, graphic arts, etc.; and the graphic arts section, supervised by Department Flead Wilfred Walsh, will even have room for photoprocessing.

Woburn High School now has the solution to this problem — the recently constructed Physical Educa¬ tion Department. With the addition of two new gymnasiums, that have such excellent apparatus, there’s no excuse for anyone appearing fragile. In addition, a new baseball and football field have been provided for boys who are interested in physical fitness. Girls have not only new fields for softball and field hockey, but also beautiful tennis courts as well. In the not-too-distant future, the girls will also have a golf team of their own. Because of all these improvements, we make this predic¬ tion: Woburn High will soon have a perfect record — no losses, all wins! 19

Our new math courses, offered at honors, standard college prep, and general levels in grades nine through twelve, offer many surprises. A college prep math student of ten years ago would be lost in a modern standard level math course. If he were to venture into an honors class, which differs from the standard courses in its scope, depth, and rate of progress, he would be totally bewildered, for our math program is moving forward at a dizzy pace and will soon be second to none in the state. Eventually, one ninth-grade group will complete the high school math course by the end of grade eleven. From here on, the sky is the limit. Einstein never had it so good! Eugene E.
