From the everyday banging of typewriter keys to letters being tran- scribed in shorthand, business courses emphasized learning good business skills. These skills were pre- paratory work for a career in later life. Twenty-two girls attended the an- nual office education contest in March. Five students won individual honors in the competition. They were: Janis Panizzi, first place in telephone techniques, Jill Beck, sec- ond place in office services clerk and sixth in extemporaneous speaking, Sharon Elkins, fourth in extempora- neous speaking, Pam Ervin, sixth in job manual, LuAnn Gourley, fifth in shorthand. In bookkeeping and recordkeep- ing, students learned to make family budgets, write checks, and keep budgets of expenditures. Students also learned how to take inventory and how to do tax deductions.
