Page 7 The Ex Superintendent McKenney Says — Progress in civilization is advancement toward a higher and better state in human affairs. The history of man portrays his continual struggle to im- prove himself and the conditions under which he has lived. To give young people opportunity to gain experience and training and these in proportion to their abilities and aptitudes, we must have better schools, which means better buildings, better equipment and better teach- ing. Young people must be trained. Civiliza- tion must continue to progress. Principal Miller Says — The selection of Progress as a theme for the Follies of 1946 is a timely choice. Only Progress in human relationships will enable the countries of the world to live peacefully under the guidance of the United Nations. Helen Houlton is carrying out her various duties as Mr. McKenney ' s office girl in a very efficient manner. The students all hope to see her again next year. Maxine Brown uses most of her valuable time answering questions and finding things. She is Mr. Miller ' s right-hand man. Small but mighty would describe her. Page 8 cutis es The Auburn School Board, which is composed of three local business men, forms the executive body. This group, with the aid of Mr. McKenney, superin- tendent of schools, conforms the financial program to fit the budget and formulates school policies. Mr. Haggarty, as treasurer, is a very fit holder of the office. He is president of one of our local banks. He says the school system must be the best — which is none too good. He undertakes a game of golf for recreation. Mr. D. K. Armstrong, secretary of the board, runs a successful grocery business in south Auburn. Having a son in high school, he is deeply interested in the various activities pro- vided for the boys. Mr. E. A. Husselman is president of the board. His business is the selling of monuments, but he also has his moments for recreation, namely, fly fishing. Page 9 Art Art increases the outlook on life and often is relaxing. A few of the students plan to go further in the field of drawing. We all wish them the best of luckl Mathematics Mathematics forms the very fun- damentals needed by nearly every person who goes out in the world of Progress. Various types of mathe- matics are given in Auburn High — algebra, geometry and trigonometry. Speech Speech has proved an essential program in Auburn High. Good speech is necessary to success if we want progress. This class is small but promising. Page 10 Business Training Business Training is one of the out- standing classes in Auburn High which offers you the most direct ap- plication to your future work. It in- cludes bookkeeping courses for those aspiring to become secretaries and business men. The underclassmen are given the opportunity to take Junior Business. ] 1 ' H 1 wP S l Pag..

Miss Cecil capably teaches both band and chorus. The chorus is shown here. Languages Languages, though oftimes bewil- dering, help to broaden our outlook on different peoples of the world. Here is one of our English classes under the careful guidance of Miss Dawson. Page 11 Home Management Home Management — All the girls — and boys — agree to the benefit derived from this instruction. Many of these girls plan to put it to good use soon. Miss Linville is the capa- ble instructor of this group. History History is one of the subjects which all students are compelled to study. It aids in their understanding of the current world affairs. This picture shows a senior civics class. Science Science is the very basis of our progress today. Without it, our ex- istence would be almost without hope. Here is shown a science class at work. Page 12 Left to right: Mr. Miller, Mrs. Teter, Mr. Schooley, Mr. Weathers. Mr. Lefforge.

ALMOST SUMMER On December 12 and 13, the Junior-Senior Play was presented by Mr. Kenneth Ettner. The entire cast, both on the stage and behind the scenes, did a splendid job in Almost Summer. Paul Jones was soon to be compelled to go to summer school if he did not pass his last history exam by a 95%. He needed this to be able to enter the university the next fall. However, his girl, Jane, wanted him to go to the lake during the summer so they could be together. His best pal. Jack, sug- gested they cheat and pass the test, but Paul refused even though Jack did. Paul managed to pass, but Jack was compelled to take the test again in the fall. Paul finally got his heart ' s desirre and also made Jane happy.

Just ask the librarian and she will do her best to find the book needed. This year ' s librarians were very capable. Auburn High School can boast of an appropriate and complete library. It has been a great help to the students of the past years and will continue to be so for many years to come. Under the direction of Miss Dawson, these books were kept in order and avail- able to students and teachers at all times. COMMERCIAL GROUP The commercial group consists of Auburn High School students who have shown proficiency in typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and secretar- ial training. The shorthand and bookkeeping groups are instructed by Mr. Gumpp. The typing and secretarial training are taught by Mr. Showalter. The students in the group who took shorthand are: L. Englert, D. Grant, D. Musser, B. Widdicombe. Bookkeeping: N. Hornett, P. Girardot, R. Clark, N. Walter, M. Yoder, B. Sellers, J. Smith. Advanced business: N. Hornett, M. Yo- der. Typing: S. Yoder, M. Peters, J.

They receive excel- lent training in making mechanical drawings, blueprints, use of power tools, and general handicraft and woodcraft. This knowledge they gain in practi- cal application will be very conven- ient later in each of their lives in both home and office work. Front row: S. Fribley, R- Crooks, K. Mclnturf, R. Kes- ter, G.

Physics is one of the few subiects that touch the student ' s life directly. It is a combination of all the everyday principles that are common to every- one. These principles may be connect- ed with the automobile, the airplane, television, or even bucksaws and gar- den tools. Many of the physics students plan to make this work their life ' s aim. ART Auburn High School has a splendid art course and a capable teacher in Miss Berkypile. Among the different phases of the course are outdoor sketches, design- ing, figure drawing, still life, pen and ink drawings, and clay modeling. The group has learned to appreciate the beauty of various objects and to paint or draw the beauty he or she sees. This group has proved helpful in making posters and drawings for the different activities of the school. Front row: R. Simonton, R. Martin, B. Widdicombe, B- Mooney, M. Houtzer, J. Smith, J.

UNCLE SAM ' S SALESMEN Every Tuesday morning the familiar call Any stamps today? was heard by all. This movement was again sponsored by the Home Economics Club and proved very successful. Although the war is over, the students faithfully responded to the Victory Loan Drive. During the drive, a program was presented to the assemblage of stu- dents to boost the sales. It was given on behalf of the Home Economics Club and Chorus. To arouse interest in this project, cards showing the percentage of sales were distributed to each room. Each room strove to show the side of the card which was marked 90%. At left: Cashiers getting change in the office. Page 60 We have many hard-playing, capable athletes. The following pages are dedicated to them. Page 61 Auburn Athletic Coach Young Coach Young, known to all his friends as Zeke, brought his football team out on top of many one-sided scores.

Coach Young ended the season with a defeat from Kendallville. It was a cold, muddy day, but although the Comets won 621 2 to 521 2, Bill Wattier set a new pole vault record of 11 ' 31 2 for the Earl Carr field, and John Hines tied the previous high jump record of 6 feet. Hard work, boys? The last round .% v_ ' K R What ' s life without a laugh? Here ' s hoping you get a few out of — our humor section. Page 79 Are You in the Know? By Joe Donaldson and Jo Patrick (Fiends for Gossip) Phil Butler ' s Dream Girl is (hold your breath, girls) — Hedy LaMarr. Most of the underclass- men swoon at the sight of a red shirt and a pair of red corduroys belonging to a certain senior. Hint to the male sex: Joan Palmer ' s pet peeve is people who stare. Blondes send Carol Heffley, but if you want further details, ask gypsy. A certain book gives the information that Pat Sey- mour thinks quite a bit of Alto. See her for details. According to a recent survey the cutest senior is Phil Butler and the cutest juniors are Bud Armstrong and Jim Donaldson. This was taken from boy-hun- gry freshmen and sopho- more girls whose names I cannot mention unless you see me privately. J. D. Mr. Miller follows John Hines around with a fire extinguisher because the freshmen were afraid he would set the school on fire and burn up a couple of basketball players. How about it, Snake ? Help Wanted: Mrs. Bak- er would like to find some way to keep Nancy from tearing up the funnies when Stanley Yoder drives by. Why is it Joe Donaldson has taken up plumbing instead of painting? J. P. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY The Eckhart Park was tlie joyful scene of a liappy re- union of the class of ' 46 today. Mr. Robert Schooley, re- tired school teacher, headed the committee for the gath- ering. The other committeemen were Miss Mary Imus, art teacher of Auburn High School, Robert Martin, the former Beryl Widdicombe, and June Smith. Those participating in the fishing on Cedar Creek banks were Herman Seigel, still looking for a business to support his pin-up girl, Paul King, who runs a suc- cessful bakery, Mary Alice Renner, well-known journal- ist about New York, and the former Beverly Sellers, who told me she had an awful time finding someone to keep the kids for her today. At the horseshoe court, recently installed, were Mr. Schooley, who now resides in luxury at Long Beach, California; the former Jean McNabb, secretary for her husband, who owns the New York Times; the former Donna Musser, wife of the Methodist minister of Ashley; Stanley Yoder, famous professional basketball player, now starring with the Rochester Rioters; and the princi- pal of Auburn high school and his wife, Bob Mochamer and the former Nila Walter. Although she is often on tour with her name band husband. Max Glass, the former Madelyn Houtzer finds time to keep up her correspondence with her classmates. She informed me that Captain George Blair of the U. S. Army and Miss Bessie Grogg, manager of the candy store are still current sweethearts. Phil Butler, who has taken Van Johnson ' s place in the movies, was surrounded by his former classmates. Prac- tically swooning at his feet was Betty Kelly, Powers Model of New York; Rose Ann Kraus, comedienne on WOWO; Barbara Wilson, pilot for TWA; Paula Girardot, famous woman lawyer; and James Sprague, who is still seeking Phil ' s secret so he can become a movie star. In a group discussing basketball were Pat Ohmart and Maxine Albright, professional women basketball players; William Coooper, author of Cooper ' s Diction- ary; Bernard Broderick, who lives on his talented wife ' s income; Richard Brandon, admiral in the U. S. Navy; John Hines, farmer, who specializes in raising chicks; and Joan Soutar, author of girl ' s rules in basketball and wife of Richard G. Simanton, owner of Simanton ' s Lum- ber Company. Joe Donaldson was unable to attend as he was called on an emergency plumbing trip. Toward the end of the day, Kenny Warner and Royce Clark, co-owners of a garage, were still working on Paul King ' s Ford. — Written by Miss Jo Patrick, English teacher of Auburn High School. Page 80 Weather Forecast: CHILE TODAY HOT TAMALE THE I TEKHISSIOW Price: ONE HOUR TRAGEDY AT COUNCIL MEETING CHUCK BABER IS VICTIM OF LAST NIGHT ' S ESCAPADE It is the annual custom for the seniors of Auburn High School to attend one city council meeting. (Bv order of Sugar-Daddy Weathers, well-known fil- ilbusterer of Civics class.) It is doubtful if, af ' er las ' night, the parent will al- low this any longer. At eight o ' clock the council members, upon going into their chamber, found it full of noisy chat- ter of high school siudents. However, they carried out the usual procedure. Aft- er the roll was called. Committeeman Sanders read the minutes of the last meeting. Mayor Potter then lit up a cigar and Chuck Baber, one not to be beat- en, lit up a special brand of dried dan- delions rolled in dried maole leaves. About this time, Betty Kelly, Jean McNabb, and Jo Soutar pulled out all- day suckers and proceeded to enjoy the meeting. Crackers were enjoyed by Paula Girardot and Doris Grant, while George Blair and Bessie Grogg noisily crunched on celery. Other fel- low students, not to be outdone by ei- ther Chuck or the Mayor, lit up cigar- ettes, pipes, and cigars. But the coun- cilmen were very brave. They tried hard to carry on amidst smoke and noise. At 8:29V2 (timed by Dock Pepper Hines, who expected something like this to happen). Chuck Baber passed out. No sooner was he out than Doc Hines was by his side ready to help his fellow student. They rushed Chuck to the hospital, and there he was put under an oxygen, tent. One of our students who intends to become a nurse, June Smith, is stand- ing 24-hour watch. For some reason unknown to all doctors except Doc Pepper Hines, Chuck doesn ' t seem to get any better.
