Commerce Department But all teachers have outside jobs So Im not in the commerce department Im having un Clickity-clack, clickity-clackg Oh no! I was almost finished the whole exercise, and now I have to start all over again for one miserable mistake! This was the familiar noise and heart-rending cry issuing forth from certain corridors of the school building. Here was the realm of the commercial students, where they worked their way through junior business training and on to clerical practice. Suddenly they found themselves feeling quite capable with typing shorthand and sometimes bookkeeping As seniors transcription and senior office practice were the vogue and the students were to be seen gazing at ceilings thinking in terms of shorthand symbols and typewritten business letters After graduation these pupils will scatter to many different walks of life Some will pursue higher education at business schools Others may seek jobs in private oflices banks or other businesses S Weiss Dept Head First Rau L Graf XI ONe1ll N1 Gaynor S Abrams E Kravitz V Slumpo S Klein Second Hou L Alleman R Cohen R Petterolf M Sher I Abrams Third Rau S Weiss C lentner F Hess 17 ,A !

Physical ducation Department So--- . . . and onto the scientific shelf fe f Bright and early in the morning, be it spring, summer, fall, or winter, we were marched outside to be physically educated. This was the dawn patrol, the ritual which plagued us daily despite dew, fog, and sleep-laden eyelids. Throughout four years we staggered through stimulating exercises, wore a rut over the long and short trails, and enjoyed exhausting competition. The strange part of it was that as we became more skillful at sports and apparatus, we actually came to like it! The teachers who supervised our physical education also had the privilege of teaching us hygiene. Under their excellent instruc- tion we discovered and learned how to improve our personalities. Practical first aid, general instruction in everyday life, and the systems of our bodies were other areas of study. Finally, in the most talked about course at Lincoln, senior hygiene, we were told the true facts of life. There is a definite difference between boys and girls -boys play football! ww. .
