Q. What kind of problems have you come up against as department chairman? A. Oh, mainly just housekeeping chores - getting enough books of the right kind to the right teacher and getting enough equipment. Q. What courses get the most en- rollment, except for Typing I, which many students take for their personal use? A. I guess all of them. We seem to have more than our share. We have about 1300 students out of the 1700 in the high school. Busi- ness Law is a very popular course, and we have many stu- dents enrolled in that. Q. Do you have any new classes this year? A. Yes, we added a new course this year, it's called Office Practice. It takes in a little bit of everything. It is a course for guys and girls both. Next year we would like to offer a course called Note-taking. lt will hopefully teach them how to take notes - an abbreviated shorthand course. It will be a one semester course for seniors only.
