Business- A world of budgets and balances. Business Education The business education course offered a busy life for 203 Seniorites. Secretarial and cleri- cal sequences were offered with sixteen varied subjects under the direction of six teachers. Sec- retarial students majored in shorthand and cleri- cal students, in bookkeeping. According to a new Peinisylyania state law, each business education student must have two semesters of both mathematics and science. Pre- viously they had been required to have only one semester of mathematics and no science. This year the students had a chance to win shorthand pins. They took tests to determine their speed and the type of pin they would receive. In May, yarious local business firms co- operated in a work-experience program giving senior students an opportunity to use the skills they acquired during the past four years. The business department endeavors to ineet both the vocational and personal needs of its members. Edith M. Bell Myrna jane Boal Beverly Ann Burgeit Alice Lamb George E.

Fine Arts Nlr. Davis, new at Senior this year, teaches a very complete program of art to his students. His tenth grade enthus- iasts have begun a three year program which introduces them to the many fields of art such as advertising, commercial art, metal Work, and other practical applica- tions. Creatiyeness on the part of the students is urged in this three-year pro- gram. At present, the eleventh and twelfth graders may elect their own fields. A few of the projects chosen are oil painting, glass work, fashion design, sculpturing, interior decoration, and jewelry Work. The music program, directed by Mr. Runzo and Mr. Puleo, is pictured and described in the activity section of this annual.
