An Abbotsford High School student won honors at North Central Technical Institute’s fourth annual Super Bowl of Business Skills held in Wausau Friday, February 2, 1973.

Shirley Witt, daughter of Mrs. Marjorie Witt, won a fourth place trophy in the Bookkeeping Division, for competition on this division. Other students entered in the Business skills contest were Gale, Wichlacz, Cindy Stumpner, Marilyn Schreiber, Wendy Kramer, Debbie Schmidt, Patti Hansen, and Dawn Zirngibl.

Local contestants were accompanied by Mrs. Linda Laird, Business Education teacher in Abbotsford.

A total of 250 students from 25 area high schools competed in beginning and advance typing, beginning and advanced shorthand, bookkeeping, and spelling. Championship plaques were presented to the first place winters in each event, and trophies were awarded to second, third and fourth place winners in each event.

The contest is sponsored each year by students at NCTI’s Chapter of the Wisconsin Office Education Association as a community service project. NCTI officials and judges praised the outstanding level of proficiency demonstrated by all contestants.
