Search for Key to lob Training Attracts Students Searching for a key to job opportunity, many MHS students enrolled in business education courses, such as Bookkeeping I, Business Law, Basic Business, Typing I, and Business English and Math which are semester classes. Students enrolled in these courses gained knowledge about the bookkeeping department in a business, the laws by which a busi- ness must abide, the proper grammar and form to use when typing business letters, and the fundamen- tals of interest on stocks and bonds. Bookkeeping I classes were hired by George Spen- cer, owner and operator of the fictitious Spencer Athletic Goods Store, the first semester. Keeping the books for a fiscal period of one month, they used various journals and ledgers. The second semester, they were employed by Taylor Hardware to keep up-to-date his journals, ledgers, checkbook, and reports. The 130 bookkeeping students toured the computer section of A. P. Green Refractories, to go along with their study of automated data proces- sing. Business Law students presented short skits to illustrate different points of law. To decide which of the parties should receive judgment, a jury composed of students of the class was chosen. Later in the year Mr. Andy Runge, a Mexico attorney, spoke to Business Law classes, with many of the students taking advantage of this opportunity to seek some free legal advice.
