ENGLISH FIVE NEW TEACHERS JOIN STAFF English is required in all four years of high school. The student's suc- cess in his chosen field is determined largely by his command of the English language, both spoken and written. Mr. Adcock, Mr. Cheshire, Mr. Dobbins, Mrs. Elfers, and Mrs. Wilferd were new teachers in the English Department this year. This meant new sponsors for the school paper, the Thespian Society, and the Debate Club. The new teachers brought with them new outlooks and attitudes making this a very successful year. MR.

All of us, regardless of age or occupation, come in daily contact with business. Students need to understand business as it functions in our economic system. We are all obligated to society to produce the needed goods and services, and to ourselves to earn a satisfactory income. The above were some of the ideas students under- stood after taking General Business. The CHS com- merce program offered the student many vocational and personal opportunities. College bound students benefited especially by learning typing skills. RIGHT: Typing II students at work. COMMERCE EICHARD D. GOCHENOUR-Typing, Bookkeeping, Short- and.
