Our clerk-stenographer force does a wonderful job of keeping everything work- ing smoothly. That's surprising, too, when one considers the tumult, rush, and seeming confusion in a school as active as CeHS. Filing, handling mail and phone calls, typing, compiling vital information for permanent records -it's enough to have heads spinning. But it all comes out with a very minimum of fuss. . . 1 l SECRETARIES with talent and pa- tience! Central's students owe more than they can ever pay to these young women who keep records, check at- .

Modern trans- portation and communications have put distant countries into the category of next door neigh- bors. As such they become more important to us, and we to them. Students who can learn to understand the economics and social aspects of foreign peoples also learn the first lesson in tolerance. You just don't get mad at people you know and have learned to like. World travelers see that people are real, not just statistics. They learn also that opportuni- ties common in America too often are unknown in other lands. Knowledge erases darkness and thus diminishes the threat of world conflict. ELECTRONICS absorbs the interest of boys like Bill Clay and Bob Jarrett, who know more about short-wave radios and transistors than most people know about their own politics. Boys in the electronics classes are radio hams and junior type inventors of tomorrow's new wonders. 23?
