The Academic course is divided into two classes: that which includes Latin, and that which substitutes Industrial History, Industrial Geography, or Social Problems for Latin. These latter subjects may also be substituted for foreign languages by students in either the General or Commercial courses. The Academic course prepares one for college, while the Commercial course, which includes Typewriting, Stenography, Office Practice, Book- keeping, Commercial Law, and Economics, prepares one for the business world. The General course, on the other hand, is made up largely of elective subjects, but can be made College Preparatory if so desired. The 1934 class decided this year to cancel the Washington trip, folf lowing the action taken by the Sophomore class of last year. This was due to the fact that the treasury was tied up in a closed bank. lt was also decided that the proceeds from the senior play should aid in the payment of the Kxioirr, while the senior dance would not be held as an enterprise for protit.

In 1910 the first part of our present high school was finished and a class of twelve students was graduated. In 1915 two wings were added to this building. This structure also being too small, a 6f3f3 plan was adopted, and in 1924 the Junior High School, containing an auditorium, cafeteria, and library, was built in back of the Senior High School. In 1931 ten more rooms were added, four to Senior High and six to Junior High: the athletic field was enlarged: and a concrete stadium was erected. The size of the graduating class of Collingswood High School has in' creased yearly until this year a total of two hundred and eighteen students has been reached. In the junior Class there is.an enrollment of two hundred and eighty' seven, while the Sophomore Class boasts of three hundred and eightyfthree students. III XIINFRY SII'm' H.iI,I.
