Mary Ruth is about to go crazyg those totals just won't add up! 'tHunt and peck turns into a skilled typing under the guidance of the teachers in the Business Department. BUSINESS DEPARTMENT IS CHARACTERISTICALLY BUSY The Business Department was under the able direction of Mrs. Campbell, Miss Browder, and Miss King. Many students studied under these teachers, and most of the classes were full. Several first year typing classes were held each day, as was one second year class. These classes weren't domif nated by girls, as it might seemg many boys also took typing. Often as students or teachers walked down the hall between classes, they were startled by sudden clatteringg this was caused by the timed writings. These typing classes were held in a large room with about forty typewriters. First and second year shorthand classes were held in another regular-sized classroom which was also provided with typewriters. The Future Business Leaders of America, sponsored by Mrs. Campbell, was composed mostly of short- hand students. The Business Department has also sponsored the annual for several years. Maybe a code expert would help in this case.
