V X ' X., Foreword The sudden surge of school spirit you feel when you walk into a football stadium on a cold fall evening or as you watch a basketball game in the gyninasium and hear the Pep Club and other Commerce Tigers cheering the team on to victory, the pride you feel as you sit in the auditoriuni on the night of a school play, or as you listen to a concert presented by the band and chorus, the pride you experience when you, or a fellow classmate, receives an award or special recognition for an outstanding achievement, and even the feeling you have as you walk down the halls of CHS of being a part of something big and Wonderful--these are a few of the moments which the '59 Bengal Tales Staff has tried to capture for you in the '59 Bengal Talesg for these are the moments you live today and cherish tomorrow. nl lillii iiliii ll' limi min ' runs mm ' lim: mm COMMERCE HIGH SCHOO L - 'm'l'?

'F Mr. Mouser has served as superintendent of Commerce Schools for the past six years. He received his bachelor's degree from Northeastern State College and his master's degree from Oklahoma State, whe re he ma- jored in high school adrninistra- tion and elementary supervision. Mr. and Mrs. Mouser reside at 301 North Elm. They have four children, all of whom are married. fri' 'Q Ky ff tfas Q , Everyone is aware that improvement is a sign of progress. None of us should be satisfied with any condition, if there is the slightest possibility of improving the situation. Not only is this true in business but in the field of education as well. During the past five years the faculty and administration of Commerce Public Schools have made a rather intensive study of the various departments and aspects of the school with improvement as the goal. Some of the results are: 1. Iniprovernent of the over-all curricu lurn to meet more nearly the needs of the students. Chemistry and Spanish have been added. Music has been accredited and greater emphasis has been placed on read- ing. Z. We have been admitted to member- ship in the North Central Association of Secondary Schools and Colleges. 3. We pupil guidance through tests, conferences, have placed more emphasis on and counseling. 4. We have made a strong effort to strengthen the teacher-pupil-patron relationship. 5. And, finally, we have secured the assistance of a team of experts from Okla- lioma State University in conducting a survey of building needs on a long range plan. E. G. Mouser, Superintendent Mrs. Ann Shaw, school secretary, is an efficient and attractive addition to the superintendents office. Her first year at CHS, she has already become a favorite of students and faculty alike. Administration dministration Mr. Bennett has been at Commerce High School for four years. For three of these years, he has been principal. Mr. Bennett is a graduate of North- eastern AGM College and received his B. S, and M.S. Degrees from Kansas State Teachers' College. Mr. Bennett taught in Madison, Kansas, before coming to Commerce. , Z Z y G Mr. and Mrs. Bennett reside at 1000 East B Street. They have two sons, C. D., l3, and Keith, 9. William J.

The Business Education Department has the primary responsibility of developing economic understanding on the part of students participating in its program. First, general business is the cornerstone of the department. From that sub- ject, students may branch out into bookkeeping, which stresses business principles and appli- cations, to typing, where not only typing skills are taught, but spelling, punctuation, grammar, and other related subjects are taught, also. Or they may study the challenging subject of short- hand, which trains students planning to enter the secretarial field. One hundred sixty-six stu- dents are enrolled in business classes. as la., nw K 5 i 'Ni BOOKKEEPING gina! , ' SHORTHAND Il -'f '33 TYPING Il Mathematics James Teal, B,S, Z years at C.H.S.

GENERAL MATH-These students are studying the basic principles of mathematics. ALGEBRA I-These students are racking their brains trying to learn Algebra I. At least one year of algebra is required for a student to Many ideas of mathematics are basic to the education of good citizens as well as those that are basic to many of the vocations high school students enter upon graduation. Every student who leaves our schools, whether to go into service of his country and mankind or to seek higher edu- cation in fields of his own choice, will find many uses for the ideas and knowledge of mathematics that he has gained in his early years. It is the aim of all of us to face the responsibility of help- ing young people to gain a back- ground in mathematics.

It also helps them to 3- build a wardrobe for themselves. There are two years of home economics offered to high school girls. In the first year course, the students learn to prepare simple meals and receive instruction in sewing. Each girl makes a sleeping garment and a dress. The second year of home ec- onomics is an advanced course covering the basic fundamentals of homemaking. In this class, the stu- dents learn to prepare and serve various types of foods. Their sewing includes a dressy dress, a simple dress, and a suit, as well as a gift for their mother at Christmas. The Home Economics II students are responsi- ble for the preparation of the food for the Junior- Senior Banquet. This food is served by the Home Economics I students. There is only one year of home economics offered to the boys. During this year, they learn how to cook, and they also make a sport shirt. All the garments sewn by the home economics students are modeled and judged in the Annual Spring Style Show. First, second and third prizes are awarded for the outstanding gar- ments. - -'- HOME ECONOMICS I-Toni Baker and Linda I-Iulsey serve coffee and cookies to the rest of the class. 1 --..-...H 1 -2 -0- 'Qs 1 Science 1 ' A 4 , , -Q.-.. .I GENERAL SCIENCE-Mr. Collins is busy teaching these students 5 V J' f . f the basic fundamentals of science and its uses to man.

The Comnierce Tigers closed their regular Sea- son with a ZZ-8 overall record and although failing to win their conference title, they finished second and won three tournaments. With much determina- tion and desire, the Tigers won the district champi- onship, which was played at Grove, Oklahoma. This allowed the basketball squad to play in the regional tournament at Vinita, Oklahoma. The first game was lost to a good Vinita team. Commerce regrets the loss of five senior boys, who have helped so much with their fine plays and sportsmanship. To these boys we wish only the best in life. Coach Bromley stated that it had been a pleasure to have been associated with such a fine ,group of boys as those who played basketball at Commerce High School in l959. K.
