JOURNALISM Students Seek Improvement jor School Publications The darkroom classes worked like crazy to get out orders for the Cruiser and Hi-Power. They learned how to develop pictures, make prints, and the right way to take a picture. Mr. Nightingale taught the students how to do all of these things, and to put up with all the problems.

BUSINESS Students Learn Skills for Future Jobs In typing I the sophomores learned how to type the fastest, easiest, smoothest way. They found out that typing comes in very handy for book reports. In bookkeeping the students learned how to fill out income tax forms and budget their income. The office aides were very busy throughout the year writing out admit slips and running errands for the office and Mr. Adamson. This year the typing II class learned a more advanced form of typing. While working at their own speed, they learned how to type letters and manuscripts. In business law the students learned what law is about and when to go to a lawyer. They also learned of their rights as a citizen. Top left: Roger Clauson, Stella McCullock, Mark Magill, Kathy Anderson, and Dottie Pierson in typing I. Top right: Mrs. Mintonye, Aleta Shorb.

Bottom right: Jim Wesley. Mr. Neher, Darlene McDonald, and Colleen Schrag getting ready for another day's work in drivers ed. The physical education classes did their share for the school in keeping the students in shape. The boys wrestled, played soccer, basketball, ping-pong, knee football, and did a lot of hard calisthenics. The girls played baseball and square danced with the boys, learned how to jump on the trampoline, and did exercises. The boys and girls had a combined class on medical self-help. When the sophomores weren't taking physical education, they were in drivers education. The students learned how to drive over the rough roads of Powers and learned many safety hints on driving. 24
