We find, however, that there is more and more room for engineers, architects, ond mathematicians. These positions ore available to those willing to work for them. Even for those who do not wish to make a career of math there is the thought that a knowledge of math = a well-organized life.

MRS. GENEVIEVE S. BLEW Supervisor MRS. MARIAN LEIMBACH Registrar The Results Compiled MRS. ELIZABETH GRAFF and MRS. CHRISTINE SCHNEIDER Secretaries for the Business Office We keep our secretaries on the run! From early in the morning till after we go home, the secretaries are busy keeping the records up-to-dote, arranging parent-teacher conferences, writing letters, and look- ing up schedules for inquiring parents who may have locked themselves out of the house while sending Susie to school with the only key. The students, however, are more frequently aware of the mysterious atmosphere of the office, for within these walls, tests and exams are mimeographed by student operators, sworn to secrecy. All of this is managed with o minimum of confusion. After Christmas vocation, things really begin to move. The seniors finally realize it's time to turn in college applications. The stacks of transcripts pile up. Many hours are spent transferring information from permanent records to these transcripts, which ore then sent on to colleges. Then in February the juniors and sophomores register for their next year's classes and the counting of credits toward graduation becomes a full-time occupation. The records are kept in the vault and in our years of existence we've accumulated files from ceiling to floor. The necessary link between the County Office opd our high school is supplied by our supervisor, Mrs. Blew. MRS. DOROTHY LANGHORNE Assistant Secretary to Counselors

Their inexhaustible talents provide us with much pleasure and at the carnival each spring we gather around the booth where art students try their skills in pastel portraits of those students with enough patience to sit still for half an hour. The way to a man's heart is through his stomach is the by-word of the Home Arts Department. They take great pride in cooking meals and, though it is The firs» slop in making o dress is the necessary job of loying out the pottern. Harriet Green ond Patti Cohoon help each other so the job will be finished quickly ond accurately. sometimes difficult to get samples of their culinary creations, the girls take pleosure in concocting all sorts of tempting dishes. It is truly a woman's world when scraps of material ond threod are transformed into suits, dresses, and coots. Musicians and I steners alike take great pride in B-CC's Music Department. Our A Cappella Choir is, one of the organizations of which we con be most proud. Each year hundreds thrill to the choir's inspir- ing Christmas concert presented at the National Cathedral. Even the most critical have nothing but praise for the rich tone quality and emotion which the choir produces.
