Notebooks formed a record which might be referred to in later years. A modern foods lab enabled girls to com- pare kitchen equipment and learn to use each item efficiently, Sixteen seniors enroll- ed in meal planning had the opportunity each semester to plan and prepare lunches. Future homemakers learned the use and the care of the sewing machine, discussed the buying and the altering of garments, and studied the weave and durability of fabrics. Requirements varied from the making of two simple garments in Clothing I to the sewing of a suit or a coat in Clothing ll.

Students thus became better acquainted with busi- ness procedures before graduation, Office practice, shorthand, secretarial training, and business English prepared commercial students for careers as general office em- ployees and secretaries. Typing, consid- ered a necessity for the college bound, was elected by most academic students. Some freshmen got the jump on their high school responsibilities by taking typing during summer school, After budget con- scious students had conquered the business arithmetic and bookkeeping courses, they found unbalanced budgets and overdrawn accounts were less frequent occurrences. Salesmanship pupils encountered difficul- ties when they tried to sell fellow class- mates typewriters, tape recorders, house- hold appliances, and even an automobile. A successful sales talk ended with a sat- isfied customer and a relieved salesman. omnwtcial ffzaineefs gfzoom get ollllice jo S For dealing with Mr. Hunter's bookkeeping tabulations, Mark Maudlin's adding machine is superior to Kathy Savini's longhand.

At the end of the year, classes once again were given fitness exams and the results of the two tests were compared to determine the extent of improvement, Through class par- ticipation in volleyball, badminton, dodge- ball, and basketball, students learned co- operation and sportmanship, Most activi- ties were held in the gymnasium, but when spring rolled around, classes went to River- side Park for softball, tennis, and relays. Swimming classes, divided into three groups according to proficiency, were taught wa- ter safety rules. Those in the advanced classes were required to develop the eight elementary strokes: crawl, side, overarm side, breast, inverted breast, butterfly, back, and elementary back. Time was also spent perfecting the techniques of diving, floating, aquatic ballet, and lifesaving.
