TYPING DEPARTMENT Here at Classical, the typing classes, taught by Miss Dorothy Porter, stress manuscript typing. Once a student has acquired the skill of this kind of typing, he will find it very helpful in writing English compositions and themes. After having taken this course, he will find that his typewritten work is much more satisfactory than any of his handwriting, mainly because it will be more legible. With- out a doubt, typing is a very essential elective. Miss Dorothy Porter SPEED AND ACCURACY IS OUR GOAL First Row, Ler?

DRIVERS’ EDUCATION Among the subjects offered at Classical High School is the excellent drivers’ education course. In their junior year, students may choose pre-drivers’ education, which is taught by Mrs. Andrewes and Mr. Batt. This course is a preparation for “behind-the-wheel” experience. Then, as seniors, those who have fortunately passed the pre-drivers’ course have the opportunity to actually get behind the wheel of an automobile, supplied this year through the courtesy of Mr. Gerald J. Palmer of the Reopell Co., and be competently instructed by Mr. Donald Vaughn. SAP siti) CITY OF mig DRIVERS ED A.V. REOPELL CO. UCATION a Se AND AWAY WE GO....
