Science Department Shortly after the opening of school in September one of our Spanish teachers, Mrs. Spencer, formerly Miss Jackman, and two of our English teachers, Miss Ruth Weeks and Miss Mary Sheridan, transferred to Harper because the enrollment at Calumet had dropped on account of the redistricting in the preceding year. About the middle of the fall semester a new music teacher came to Calumet-Miss Ruth Cazier. She soon became well acquainted at Calumet, for she is a friendly person and one whom we are glad to welcome to our faculty. Most of the changes in the faculty during the last school year have been caused by sabbatical leave. Five of Calumet's faculty were enjoying sabbatical leave during the fall semester. Miss Anne Heagney, Miss Mary Hogan, and Miss Irene Powers had started their leave during the spring semester of 1934 and did not return until the spring semester of 1935. Miss Heag-ney spent part of her year studying at Columbia University and the rest traveling in the countries around the Mediterranean. Miss Hogan toured the southern part of the United States from Oklahoma to the Virginias. Commercial Department Burk Rou'-Mr. Kinnick, Mr. Smith, Mr. Knehans, Mr. Churchill, Mr. O'Brien. lfrun!

Rau'-Mrs, Patterson, Mrs. Cebatis, Miss Hill, Miss Hyman English Department To help solve some of the administrative problems a system of class counselors was devised. Miss Alice McKinley became counselor for the sponsors, since for many years she was Calumet's dean of girls, as well as sponsor of the Senior Girls Council. She has always taken a special interest in the problems and the social affairs of the seniors. Indeed it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to carry on many of the senior activities without her invaluable aid. Mr. Earl Dougherty, formerly our dean of boys, and for a time our assistant principal, became the counselor for the juniors. His skill in dealing with all sorts of problems has made the entire school run more smoothly. When, at the beginning of the second semester, he took sabbatical leave, Mr. Elwood Smith was chosen to act as counselor for the juniors during Mr. Dougherty's absence. Mrs. Bernice Greger, who has a principal's certificate and has been of great help to the office ever since the new Calumet was built, was selected as counselor for the sophomores. Mrs. Harriett Hagen, who for a number of years performed the difficult task of acting as attendance teacher, became counselor for the freshmen, a position for which she is well fitted because of her ability and her sympathy.

Mr. Leonard Teuscher took leave for the fall semester and spent his time traveling through Central Europe. Miss Winifred XVernicke did not return in September, but spent the first semester taking advanced mathematics courses at the University of Chicago and the second semester enjoying a Mediterranean cruise with a party including another of Calumet's teachers, Miss Ethel Mealiff. Miss Mealiff started her sabbatical leave at the beginning of the spring semester of 1935, as did also Miss Evelyn Pearson, Miss Helen Tobin, and Mr. Earl Dougherty. Miss Pearson is visiting the countries around the Mediterranean. Miss Tobin is taking a trip around the world. Mr. Dougherty is spending the first half of his year in study at the University of Chicago, and plans to go on a Mediterranean cruise during the second half. Two of Calumet's teachers had to take leave because of illness. Miss Jane Parmelee was absent for this reason for about half the spring semester. Her classes were taken by Mr. George Jennings, an alumnus of Calumet, class of 1924. Miss Marie Pressentin was absent for a large part of the second semester because of a streptococcic infection. Among the achievements of Calumet's faculty during the past year should be listed Mr. James Thatcher's composing of the new school song, about which everyone is enthusiastic, We should include also Mr. Bechtolt's and Mr. Kinnick's participation in Technical and Household Arts Department Burk Ron'--Mr. Deegan, Mr. LaPointe, Mr. Metz.
