Each morning and noon, 239 high school students wait patiently for the doors to open so they can start their class activities. Probably of more concern of the taxpayers than of the student body is the fact that this modern building, erected in 1939, is now entirely debt free, for the last bond was paid off last November.

PEOPLE AT AUBURN . . . are typical of the thousands of teenagers who are attending high schools today, and yet they have a culture all their own. This yearbook is an attempt to reflect the AHS scene during the school year of 1952- Through the photography of Mr. Ralf Graham, the cartoons of Janice Johnson, and the layouts and words of the entire staff, we have tried to show the most important and the most representative of the activities which made this year a memorable one for everyone connected with dear old Auburn high. 53.

STUDY THE 3 R'S People at Auburn are encouraged to get a firm foundation in the 3 R's, for the success of any student is greatly determined by his mastery of the fundamentals. The old grade school trio, readin', 'ritin', and 'rithmetic undergo a considerable change in high school. Reading becomes an integral part of every course, but the reading of good literature is still emphasized in English classes. A 1500 volume library gives plenty of supplementary reading material in all subject fields. 'Riting, still a basic communication skill, takes on new forms and implications in math, chemistry, shorthand, and journalism classes. However, the grammar aspects are still emphasized in the English classes. Rithmetic gets more complicated and challenging as students solve for unknowns in algebra, geometry, and trig. Auburn students get fundamental information about history, government, and science. The vocational fields of agriculture; homemaking, and business are also offered for those who are interested. This is ample evidence that the 3 R's are growing up to the students' needs.
