P t ’ o Typing Experts Visit al Hilhi; Speed is Shown -.» Ralph Walker and Miss Ixmise English from the Behnke-Walker business college in Portland visited the Hillsboro high school Wednes day. February 5 They put on a each typing demonstration Miss English, who is a typing in structor at the college, typed at all speeds ranging from 30 words a minute to 300 She has typed faster than this. She typed 111 words a minute while carrying on a conservation with one of the stu dents and 112 words a nnnute while orally spelling 21 words. She has typed in many contests and won her first typewriter four months and ten days of typing. She demonstrated the correct po sition and technique of typing and gave some pointers on how to in crease typing speed and decrease errors. The students all enjoyed a demonstration of how a poor steno grapher types. She did everything that a good stenographer wouldn't do and nothing that a good one would do. Walker answered student ques tions about the college and gave some good suggestions on how to improve typing ability.
