Row One: Hahn, Moore, Roland, Puri- toy. Reid. Row Two: Vaughnn, Chancellor. Shaw, Sonnier, Dea . Peters. A Tribute One of the most important functions of any business is the bookkcciring. We have a very competent group of stu- dents at Murphy in thirf capacity. Though they are very seldom heard from, they carry on the business of handling the checks and other business in a quiet yet efficient manner. Every cent that goes out of the school is care- fully checked by the auditor. The Mohian wishes to take thirf opportunity to publicly commend the following stu- dents for their splendid work as audi- tors: Dorothy Schieffelin. Central Hook- keeper: Virginia Stiles, Central Auditor. Kida Swift. Cafe Bookkeeper: Dolores Pearson, General Auditor. Miss Purifoy’s Bookkeeping 8 Opportunity Ahead Courses offered in the department of business are expected to assist pu- pils in choosing careers, in serving employees, and in succeeding as entre- preneurs. Bookkeeping, typewriting, business law, business arithmetic, busi- ness economics, and even shorthand, should prove of practical value to the buyers, budgeteers, bakers, and bankers of the family as well as the career- seekers and income-earners. In Murphy High School the commer- cial teachers are endeavoring to cause the practical utility of their instruction to demonstrate itself in the many serv- ices rendered by the advanced students as school bookkeepers, auditors, money- counters, inventory clerks, depositors, stenographers, and typists to the offi- cers and teachers in all departments of the institution. The business department, with Oscar Boland at its head, is striving to make its instruction to pupils more and more serviceable to them as the future earn- ers and spenders of the nation. To this end its teachers are constantly seeking the best available courses and the most effective methods of their presentation. 12

Tap-Tap-Tap Under the expert supervision of Mrs. M. Chancellor, the Yo Tappa Kees was formed in 1934. As the number of perspective members increased Mrs. Chancellor found it necessary to limit the membership to the members of her advanced stenography classes. At each of the club’s semi-monthly meetings one of the prominent business men of Mo- bile was invited to dictate to his inter- ested audience, and to tell them some- thing of what he expected of a stenog- rapher. During the past year the Yo Tappa Kees had as their main project the organization of a talent division. The “talenteers” were gifted underclassmen who enjoyed putting on programs for the various organizations of the school. The officers elected at the first meet- ing were: President, Eleanor Montiel; Vice-president, Lucille Jones; Secre- tary, Jamie Redwood; Reporters, Mari- lyn Parker and Margaret Welch, and it was principally through their untiring efforts that the Yo Tappa Talenteers was formed. Acting as the Major Bowes of Murphy High the officers and their committees discovered much hid- dent talent. 13
