Summary of Administration Auburn High School offers four curriculi: College Entrance, Commercial, Smith-Hughes Agriculture, and Smith Hughes Home Eco- nomics. The College Entrance Curriculum is the regular series of academic subjects and is planned for those students considering going to college. The other three curriculi are vocational in nature. Shop, art, and music are also offered. Several changes were made in courses, classes, books and teach- ers this year. Physical education requirements have increased from two years to four, of which half is actual gymnasium work while the rest may be text book study. The half year civics and half year social science have been replaced by a year of citizenship. Junior English has been an elective subject, but after this year it will be required. Business English teachers were changed last fall. Mr. Gumpp replaced Miss Foulke who taught this class previous years. Public Speaking under Miss Morton was given only the first semester and Cicero was taught instead of Virgil. Text books were changed by the state board so that many of this year ' s books were new. Only two new teachers came to Auburn last fall. Miss Markley and Miss Jenkins took over the home economics department which had been supervised by Miss Smith and Miss Eicholtz. The new instructors are capable and liked by the students. Decrease or increase in pupils taking certain subjects caused a change in the number of classes. Algebra students were so numerous, three classes were given instead of two. Typing increased, three to four classes while the two bookkeeping classes of last year were re- duced to one. In enrollment, Auburn High has never been so large. Three hundred forty-four pupils were enrolled this year. The senior class is extremely small but the junior class makes up for this deficiency with an enrollment of seventy. The Administration has purposefully made for a good school morale. The year has been marked by a cordial cooperation of faculty and students. [22]

The Follies of Physical Education Cecil Young, A. B. DePauw University University of Illinois University of Michigan Boys enjoy their physical train- ing work with Mr. Young rather than feel it compulsory. Coach ' s latest achievement is the health class com- posed of pupils excused from gym for physical disability. Since Mr. Young joined the Auburn faculty, a larger percentage of the boys participate in athletics than ever before. Thelma Burkhead Tri State College Indiana University Indiana State Normal In addition to coaching basket- ball, Miss Burkhead introduced varie- ty into her gymn classes by teaching them clogging, folk dancing, and games. Since physical education is compulsory now, it is fortunate that she does not insist upon the dry da ily dozen. Music Margaret Hixon Indiana University Northwestern University Margaret (as every one calls her) is pep and enthusiasm personified. Every one regards her more as a pal than an instructor. Her music work is characterized with pep and she turn- ed out winning choruses and quar- tets. [21]
