MISS JOBYANN RENICK Algebra II. Tngonomotry. Solid Geometry MR. FRED RAISBECK Algebra I. II MR. ROBERT MOTZNIK Trigonometry. Analytic Goometry. Math V Logical thinking leads to solutions MR. WILLIAM SCHNEIDER Plane Geometry. Algebra II Principles of mathematics are used widely in other courses and have many practical applications. Even if these principles are forgotten over the years, the habit of logical thinking which is instilled in mathematics students is worth the study of this subject. Algebra I gave students a basic understanding of equations and taught them to work with abstract symbols rather than numbers. It provided the foundation needed for Algebra II. which included more extensive work with equations. This year for the first time. Plane Geometry students learned how to use a slide rule. They studied axioms, postulates, and basic methods of proof; and with this background. Solid Geometry students studied the third dimension. Logarithms and proof by mathematics rather than by induction were studied in Analytical Geometry. Trigonometry covered trigonometric identities and functions. Logic and functions were studied in Math V in greater detail than in previous courses, and first-year college calculus was introduced. 22 MR. PETER STEVA Plano Geometry MRS.

MRS. LORETTA FERDI Typing I. Personal Typing to improve MR. NOEL DENTNER Typing I. Bookkeeping our skills MRS. CAROLYN ALLEY Typing I. II The clicking of typewriter keys was heard in the halls as students mastered the keyboard through daily exercises. In Typing I these exercises were set to music to help students increase their speed. They learned the basic typing skills which are needed for school and business. At the end of the year they typed a manual which was a comprehensive review of all that they had studied. Typing II students perfected their typing skills and learned to file and to cut stencils. They gained experience by helping the office secretaries. Students in Consumer Economics, Clerical Practice, and Bookkeeping courses gained practical business experience. For example, bookkeeping students picked a stock and followed its progress in the stock market. In notehand classes students learned to take and use class notes effectively, while in shorthand classes, students learned to take dictation in shorthand and transpose it. Although speed was stressed, accuracy was very important. MISS LYDIA NASH Clerical Practice. Typing 1 MISS KATHERINE GLICK Shorthand I. II. Typing I Typing takes a concentrated eliort 21

MR. CHARLES RAY Algebra I. Plane Geometry MR. RONALD CREE Plane Geometry Drama students set the stage tor Harvey. Math problems take a little knowledge a little thought and a lot of patience. 23 During first period, band members practice precision marching. Warm up on a Monday morning comes hard for the Boys' Giee Club.
