BUSINESS CLASSES GROW BHS business classes include typing, bookkeep- ing, shorthand, and clerical practice. Typing, which is taught by Miss Baker, is re- quired for at least one of the four years at BHS. Students taking typing are not only taught a skill, but they also learn to construct themes and manuscripts. As with most students, Cathy Beyer makes an error in typing, but is soon straightened out by Miss Baker. Gloria Foos, Dale Giauque, and Walter Cambell take advantage of the equipment offered to student typists.

COMPOSE THE 64-65 COURSES Paulette Pollock listens attentively to a Span- ish tape. The study of any foreign language helps the student to converse fluently in the language he has chosen, and also helps him to understand the sometimes complicated struc- ture upon which the language is based. Latin is especially helpful in the study of the English language because many of the words are based on Latin roots. Clarice Herbst, Teresa Peterson, Philip George, Paulette Pollock, Sherry Newlin, Linda Christensen, and Tom Travis all study tapes in Spanish II. 27
