Drilling nproved talent, as Carolyn Foote, rst in Feature Writing, Martha Ham- mer, second in Typing, and Cheryl ostick, second in Headline Writing, 'ell knew. Areas like shorthand, where Lrynda Baker got second, required temorization and constant practice. lebate not only required practice, fut also relied on past experience, so iherrill Leonard and Janet Simpson fere well qualified, placing third the ast two years in district.
