Late Hours, Hard , Work, Busy Days, ' Many Pictures Are Ingredients of Life on 1 Yearbook Staff This year's Bear Tracks marks the addition of some new ingredients to the book. Color was ' given a prominent position and the junior high was given added coverage through the aid of a junior high editor. A sixteen page section was devoted to academics and organizations were pho- . tographed in group pictures.

I In business ed. students are taught not only the practical use of typing, shorthand, and business ma- chines, but the personal touch which can be given to one's work and is valued by one's employer. lndus- trious students have won many prize positions and scholarships accredited to the fine instruction they re- ceive in the ,l.lVl. business department. Knowing that foreign languages are a vital neces- sity in today's world, the foreign language dept. not only bases its teaching on the grammar translation, but the culture ideals, literature, and the people as a whole. Students are encouraged to keep abreast of World situations affecting the people speaking their language and are often required to make special re- ports. Third and fourth year students take a course combining grammar and the country's literature. Lan- guages offered at J.lVl. are French, Latin, and Spanish. The newly installed language labs proved to be another great stride in learning this year.
