This year approximately one hundred students took drivers' training, which is a course that teaches the members to drive well and carefully. The students received pamphlets and saw movies; for the first time, a text book was used. Two classes of drivers' training were taught each semester. Under the instruction of Mr. Reeves, each student was taken out in the drivers' training car and taught to drive. Sophomores were required to take this course if it was possible to work it into their schedule.
