Income Tax Course Proves Invaluable Offered only to those seniors taking history and those wishing to take it during a study hall, a four week course explaining the proper procedure of completing income tax forms gave students the opportunity to get acquainted with and actually complete various tax forms. Obtaining all informa- tion from the federal government, each student was given a hand- book to refer to when a prob- lem arose. By the end of the fourth week each student completed a state, short, and even a long tax form. This course was especially helpful to those with part-time jobs who needed the knowledge of completing the different forms. Next year taxation will be offered as a mini-course. Although it will not be mandatory, the social studies department strongly suggests that students take advantage of this course. Discussing the evaluation of man are World Cultures in instructor Fred Vespa and student Jay Mader. 24

Students View Spanish Film In order to master either German or Spanish, many individuals dis- covered it time consuming and quite puzzling. However, the great personal satisfaction attained by the end of the year out weighed all the hard laboring study. With the use of headsets, a tape recorder console and film strips, foreign language instructors familiarized their students with the dialect and customs of different lands. In mid November, approximately 30 students enrolled in Spanish courses took advantage of the opportunity to attend Duquense University in Pittsburgh where the Spanish version of the movie Romeo and Juliet was presented. Carlos Montoya, famous Spanish singer and guitarist, also enter- tained the students. 23
