CQHIS year a Driver's Training course, taught by Mr. William Whalen, has been added to the schedule of our High School. The course consists of three hours a week--one hour of classroom instruction and two hours of driving. The total of twenty hours is required to complete the course. The successful completion of the course gives each student a de- finite plate number to be used on the automobile license plate. In this way the Depart- ment of Revenue is able to determine just who is having automobile accidents. The cou-rse has been interesting and instructive. As a result 45 students are well trained to operate motor vehicles. In the above picture are the students of the first of three classes instructed this year. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to the Schultz Motor Co. for donating the use of the 1950 Ford used in the training. I 3 n N ,nm- Parallel Parking S ' y Parts of the Motor l ' L fx - l 7 1 22.

Under the direction of Mr. William Whalen many projects have been completed by the boys of the Junior High School grades. The seventh grade boys complete two re- quired projects in woodworkingg the eighth grade boys have a limited choice inpro jectsg and the ninth grade boys may complete an unlimited number of projects sub- ject to the approval of the instructor. A class project has been the preparation of testing devices for the Driver Training Class. The Industrial Arts course offers an opportunity for pupils to use manual abili- ties. The work done and the skills acquired will be of great use and value to the boys in future life. 21

Commemkzl CHE commercial course is continuing to grow in popularity, with the typing classes still the favorite. Another new typewriter was added this year to meet the demand for the first-year course. There are now 61 students in the typing classes, 19 in shorthand, and 18 in bookkeeping. Although typing for personal use is emphasized in the beginning typing classes, actual office problems are set up as nearly as possible for the other commercial classes--in bookkeeping through the use of business setsg in typ- ing with the use of budgets setting up actual office situations.
