ATION WE DEDICATE MR. CLYDE M. GUMPP To Mr. Clyde M. Gumpp, with gratitude and in re- membrance, do we dedicate this Follies of 195 S. Mr. Gumpp was a man of high goals and high standards in everything he did. He has been a teacher much respected by his students since he first came to Auburn High School in the fall of 192 6. Before he came to us, he taught in the West. Mr. Gumpp holds the degrees of B. Accts., B.S., and M. Accts.; he attended Manchester College, Drake University, Indiana Uni- versity, and Ball State Teachers College. Through his teaching of bookkeeping, typing, short- hand, and other business courses, he has encouraged many of his students to enter the field of business. Keep smiling, keep sweet, and keep writing, was Mr. Gumpp ' s prescription for efficient stenographers, and he has turned out some really good ones. Mr. Gumpp conducted his classes in a practical way, following office form. In addition to his full-time teaching job, Mr. Gumpp freely gave his time to outside school activities. He helped at the football and basketball games many years and sponsored several classes including a junior class and a banquet. Mr. Gumpp has many personal interests. He enjovs radio and television and keeping up his properties at home. One of his several hobbies is review work, and he likes recreation of all types. Since his retirement in the spring of 195 6, Mr. Gumpp has truly been living the leisurely life of a retired man. He spends a good deal of his time in Auburn, although he visits his son in Texas frequently. For his sense of humor and his willingness to help his students, Mr. Gumpp will always be remembered by those who were acquainted with him during his years of service at Auburn High School. Page 5

IN GRATEFUL APPREC MISS GLADYS A. DUGUID The graduating class of 1958 will always remem- ber Miss Gladys A. Duguid and so wishes to express its appreciation by dedicating this annual to her. Miss Duguid was certainly a well-qualified teacher. She has an A.B. degree and has attended Columbia University, Indiana University, Michigan University, Ball State Teachers College, and Wisconsin University. She was most efficient and very well liked. Her cheer- fulness and a deep, sympathetic interest in her students are two of her outstanding characteristics which con- tributed to her success as a teacher. During her thirty-two years of service at Auburn High School, beginning in 1925, she taught English and French. For many years she gave her students great pleasure by securing for them English student correspondents in France and Belgium. In her junior English classes, she used the Reader ' s Digest effec- tively as well as group reading of poetry. The students especially enjoyed her classes when Miss Duguid em- ployed the use of records, which she played on het own record player. In extracurricular activities, Miss Duguid took a big part. She has sponsored several freshman and sopho- more classes, and we shall especially remember her as the founder of the Future Teachers of America Club at Auburn High School. Many students have benefited from membership in F.T.A. and have thus been en- couraged to enter the teaching profession. Miss Duguid sponsored the club until her retirement from teaching in 1957. Miss Duguid ' s hobbies consist of reading and trav- eling, and no doubt she has done much of both. In September of 1957, she had the most wonderful ex- perience of touring Europe. She spent nearly six months there; and since her return, she has been invited to many gatherings to present a talk and slides of her trip. For all Miss Duguid has done for us, we can merely say — Thank you. Page 4
