Mr. Coar Mr. Hornaday Mrs. Christy Miss Buckley Mr. Gumpp Cosper FACULTY MATHEMATICS AND VOCATIONAL SUBJECTS advanced secretarial trainer. Miss Betty Haywood has a daily public speaking class here at the High School as well as English classes at Junior High. After Mrs. DeBaun left, Ball State College loaned us several senior students who were majoring in physical education. These student teachers conducted the girls ' gym classes until Miss Janette Reeve came to Auburn from Geor- gia. She has very ably taken over her duties as teacher as well as supervisor of activities of the G.A.A. We wish to extend our hearty thanks to Mrs. Frank Weathers. Whenever unexpected events made it impossible for teachers to conduct their classes, it was she who came to the res- cue and carried on in their absences. We hope that Mrs. Weathers will continue to be the ever-ready friend in need. Classes are still aroused by frequent fire drills, although air raid practices have practi- cally disappeared from our program. The pur- chase of war stamps and bonds has been transferred from the halls to home rooms. Students of Auburn High School have indeed been entertained royally. A- Imong the outstanding speakers of the year was Mr. Salom Rizk, an American reared in Syria. Students were not only held spellbound by his words, but many were eager to read more about him in his book, Syrian Yankee. Professor Andrew Cordier, who had traveled widely in Europe before this MR.

On the honor roll of teachers who have answered the call of Uncle Sam, we find two people who have served Auburn schools faithfully for many years before they left us. Miss Mary Brandon, music teacher, charming and well loved by all, is now serving overseas with the American Red Cross. Miss Lydia Sel- lers, who is now reading intricate blueprints for the production of war material, has guided many a hand of Auburn students into the fields of art. Our physical education instructor for girls, Mrs. Mildred DeBaun, left us to join her husband, an Army Air Corps pilot. Miss Edna- feme Jones, who had unselfishly contributed her sparkling personality and ability as a typ- ing teacher to the development of local stu- dents, left us early in the fall of 1943 to join the SPARS. The school lost a truly outstanding musician when Mr. Kottlowski, instructor of the band, put away his baton and enlisted in the U. S. Navy. In his absence, the band is carrying on under the supervision of Mrs. Weiler. This staggering loss of faculty members somewhat hindered our school ' s curriculum, but we are gradually recovering. Mrs. Lou- ise Weiler, who comes to us from Ball State Teachers ' Col- lege, not only serves as vocai teacher, but also sponsors the Girl Reserves. Miss Luella Buckley is very capably holding her own in the dual role of typing teacher and Page 15

Everyone was amused and at the same time inspired by Mbonu Ojike, a prince from Nigeria, Africa. In addition to the special convocations, the faculty made it possible for students to see movies in the evenings. These were films that had been made several years ago, therefore most of the students enjoyed them for the first time here. To a basic group of films of well- known classics that involved French, English and early American history, a few comedies and musicals were added. School dances have been fairly well attend- ed this year, especially those held after basket- ball games. The Y has opened its doors to youth on several occasions. The dances held there were spiced with floor shows consisting of local talent. The Home Economics Club spon- sored a Victory Hop which featured entertain- ment by the faculty. The P.T.A. has continued to carry on its much needed work. As usual, many of its beneficial projects were conducted without publicity. It has supplied milk to the schools in an effort to boost the health of the students. Members made a house-to-house canvass in the recent Red Cross campaign. The officers for this year were: Mrs. Frank Weathers, president; Mrs. H. E. Bolley, first vice pres- ident; Mr. Lloyd Miller, second vice president; Mrs. Francis Shugart, secretary; Mrs. Robert Wiley, treasurer; Mrs. Maynard Timbrook, council representa- tive. Page 17
