Six different types of machines combined with data processing comprise the main curricu- lum of Business Machines. Bookkeeping prepares students to go into a bookkeeping profession or accounting. Basic skills are learned in Typing I and Shorthand I, and these skills are expanded in the second year courses offered. Training in office procedures is taught in Clerical Practice. When a student has taken a combination of these courses, he is generally prepared for a job in the growing business world.

With the last weeks of school came thoughts of graduation and freedom to the 160 seniors at BCHS, but also the dread recollection of a term research paper that was assigned long ago, and which most of them had done very little work on, So with pen, paper, and type- writer, the whole senior class embarked on a whirlwind course in research paper writing, its form, etiquette and tech- nicalities. Although at times work pro- gressed rather slowly, it was spurred on from time to time by the Vague memory of a far-away deadline. Then suddenly the deadline was there upon them. Work- ing away into the dead of night and into the wee hours of the morning, both jun- iors ffor they too were assigned this awe- some taskj and seniors hurried to com- plete their papers, I2 if WK., MH K Szawi' , ,EPA if Zi 1 1' l f an if f Frustration is evident on the face of DARRELL PREJEAN as errors halt his mad rush to meet the deadline.
