as a means of preparing the students for earning a living. At present there are only two eourses that one eau take, the eollege eourse and the general eourse. For those who plan to go to eollege, the eollege eourse is satislaetory, hut for those who do not go to eollege only one eourse ean be taken -V fthe general eourse. This Course is just what its narne implies, general. It eannot prepare the student for any voeation or trade. Wh:'rc'as, if a good business eourse were set up in Porter High, students eould aequire suflieient training helore graduation to obtain positions without further preparation. Some of the subjeets now taught in our sehool will he of little or no par- tieular value to a student taking the general course, but something like typ- ing would be very praetieal and useful. Other eourses usually ineluded in a eornrnereial eourse would be equally valuable. Sueh a eourse offered in the last two years of the general eourse would adequately prepare a eonseien- tious student to step into an office job upon eompletion of his high sehool eourse. Also the non-college prepara- tory eourse would be offering as mueh to the students who ehoose it as the college course is now offering to those who eleet it. Besides being of great value to the student, a eommereial eourse would be valuable to the sehool and the com- munity. VAI,l'lRIPI S'rAcY '50 SENIOR PLAY Front row: C, Edgeeomb, L. Holland, V.
