A TIME TO... APPLY KNOWLEDGE In our rapidly changing technological society, each person ' s need for business education has become even more important! To meet this change, THS offered a variety of classes, in addition to those normally of- fered, to help students prepare for positions as busi- ness leaders and consumers. In addition to those nor- mally offered there is Bookkeeping II, Shorthand II, Office Practice, Business Law, Business English and Business Math. Added to the Business Department facilities were many new typewriters, adding machines, and cal- culators. Approximately 430 students were enrolled in THS business courses. Chris Grills uses the dictation phones for increasing speed in shorthand. First year typing students concentrate on accuracy and efficiency.

This year the industrial arts department named two outstanding students. Any junior or senior who had taken three or more industrial arts courses was eligi- ble. The student was required to have a 2.0 overall average, and a 3.0 average in industrial arts. The out- standing senior was Erskine H. Carter. The junior was Carey Dale Harnois. The industrial arts club and regular classes put on the Annual Taylor ' s Industrial Arts open house. During this time the public viewed the industrial arts facilities, demonstrations and projects made by the students. A new industrial arts course was offered this year, Graphic Arts II. This pertained to how photography was related to the printing industry. The text used by this class was Graphic Arts Procedures by Karch.
