D. Haggarty Supt, H L. McKenney Dr. E, O, Hall B. O. Snepp SCHOOL BOARD The school board of Auburn High School is composed of outstanding and well-known citizens of our city. These men have been chosen because they have all the necessary qualifications, business, educational, and moral knowledge. We feel we are lucky to have such men to organize our schools. Mr. B. O. Snepp, president, has served on our school board for the past six years, and if he continues his fine work, we are sure this will not be his last. He has held executive offices and therefore is able to apply his knowledge to the business matters of the school. Dr. E. O. Hall, secretary, has only two years of service to his credit, but in these, he has done his part in making our schools some of the best in the state. Mr. H. L. McKenney, the executive officer and superintendent of the Auburn City Schools, has fulfilled the duties of his office well. His eighteen years in this position are proof of that. Mr. J. D. Haggarty, treasurer, has just finished his first year as a school board member. His work in banking has qualified him for his present position in this organization. The work of the board consists of making up the school budget and keep- ing our schools within the laws of the state. This they have done without the slightest complaint, and so we feel we owe them recognition and thanks. Page 10

Auburn successfully opened the basketball season by defeating Ashley, 60-33, in the first home game. Four notables, namely Mr. Robert Schooley, Mr. Frank Weathers, Mr. Fred Quance, and Mr. Harry Kreider entertained the P.-T. A. on November 12 with a very interesting discussion, entitled, Should Military Training Be Compul- sory. College aspirants from various parts of the county assembled at the Alumni Gym on November 14 to discuss plans with representatives from nearby schools of higher learning. Open house on November 14 afforded parents an opportunity to view the scholastic efforts of the students of A. H. S. Once more Auburn came out on the long end of the score at Butler, down- ing them 23-19. Auburn suffered its first setback of the season when downed by Bluffton 32-27. Students reluctantly resumed their studies after a four-day rest during Thanksgiving vacation. Mystery filled the air as a magician displayed his tricks of magic to the student body. This was the first convocation of the year. Auburn then broke back into the winning column by conquering the Leo Lions, 49-36. Page 9

PRES WILCOX Band and Orchestra Manchester College ADMINISTRATION We welcomed another new faculty member this year into our school system. Mr. Keith Showalter came to us from Chester Center as our basketball coach and history teacher. He took the place of Mr. Herman Berns. Because of the number of students attending classes, a home room system has been organized to do away with as much confusion as possible. All pupils go at once to their first period classes when the bell rings at 8:30. Their home room teacher then reads the announcements from the mimeo- graphed bulletins. Clubs and classes have their meetings until 8:45. Each period lasts for 57 minutes; thus the students have three minutes in which to pass to and from their classes. The morning session ends at 11:45. The afternoon school hours begin at 1:00 and continue until 4:00. Page 11
