VOCATIONAL P PHYSICAL E The P. E. courses had a very flexible program this year because there was no equipment and the gym was incomplete until later in the year. The boys 'played outdoors and helped to ready the grounds. The girls hoped to begin team sports and tumbling second semester. The new gym will be divided during classes but opened lengthwise for basketball games with stands on the sides. P. E. is closely related to the com- petitive sports program. The boys who participate in atheletics have P. E. sixth period. The cheerleaders work hard on their formations and cheers this period. Mrs. Nancy Tipton-Girls Physical Education Coach Wayne Murphy-Boys Physical Educa- tion. Vocational Agriculture and Home Eco- nomics have unlimited possibilities in their new surroundings this year. The Home Ec Department has alarge sew- ing room, a living room, and a modern kitch- en. Home Ec offers units in Art and Child Care as well as in the basic sewing and cooking skills. The Auburn Vocational Ag program puts more emphasis on mechanical skills than agricultural. Every boy in class has a proj- ect. This can now be a job using vocational training instead of a home project. Mr. Kil- lough helps to place the boys in suitable jobs. These vocational courses are supported cooperatively by the federal and state gov- ernments under the Smith-Hughes Act. The teachers do much work out of the classroom to fill the individual need of each boy or girl. Miss Naomia Wilson-Home Economics l- lllg Mr. Frank Killough-Vocational Agri- culture l-IV. UCATIO

A. student -faculty Volleyball game, which they Won. The cheerleaders, players, Coach Young, and Umpire Mclnnis presented quite a contrast to our customarily reserved faculty.
