ADMINISTRATION Daily announcements are made in the homerooms, a mimeographed sheet is given to teachers each morning. Instruction or guidance in social and school procedures is made through the homeroom, too. In the past this information was given Freshmen in the Freshmen rooms. Now the guidance sheets are made applicable to each class. The school band has increased by bounds. This year the combined band- orchestra developed into a ninety-six piece organization and this meant an in- crease in the instruction of the group. The boys ' chorus increased in size this year also. A boys ' quartet was organized for the first time. More visual instruction was done this year than previously. The high school Parent-Teacher Association purchased a 16mm. motion picture pro- jector for high school use. This was financed by P.-T. A. money plus funds donated by classes of past years who had money left from their school days. All the classes which graduated during the past dozen years turned over their bank balances. Mrs. Clarence McClintock was president of the P-T. A. this year. Mrs. B. O. Snepp was treasurer and Mrs. Harry Kreamelmeyer, secretary. FACULTY SOCIAL SCIENCE AND FINE ARTS MR. FRANK WEATHERS A.

Miss Frances Moor took the place of Mrs. Clarice West as music supervisor and Miss Marguerite Downing replaced Miss Swaim as head of the home economics work. The high school was changed to a homeroom basis shortly after the mid- year. In this system each student reports to his first period class when he comes to school in the morning and is not assigned a seat in the assembly hall except during study periods. Books and possessions are kept in lockers. This change was effected because the school had become too large for the daily pre-school exercise period of the old days. A general convocation is held bi-weekly and special assemblies or programs are called from time to time. Page 13

ADMINISTRATION Because of the large amount of office clerical work caused by the issuing of white and yellow slips for makeup and non-makeup of absences, this procedure was dropped about the middle of the year. The yellow slip had been a penalty for absence for no good reason and carried a deduction of scholastic credit. There was no change in curriculum this year. Auburn ' s curriculum in- cludes citizenship instruction on state and national constitutions as outlined by the state department. Instruction m safety was carried on during the year. The school day consisted of six periods of 57 minutes each. Three minutes were allowed for passing of classes. FACULTY VOCATIONAL SUBJECTS AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION MISS KATHRYN WELLBAUM B.
