We marked up another victory at the expense of Clarinda 13 to 6. Although Orient's passes caught us off guard, our power paid off in the last quarter and we won 39 to 19. On October 19th the Red Raider invaded enemy territory for their only defeat, Creston 20, Corning 6. The following week we made a come back and defeated Lenox 38 to 6. On November 2, over one thousand spectators thrilled to the defeat of Red Oak, 20 to 13.

Work in this department may be taken over a four-year period with a year to each of the following: animal husbandry, farm shop, soils and crops, farm management. A new shop has been put into use this year with work for boys in mechanical drawing, welding, forge and other metal work, carpen- try, electricity, auto mechanics, farm machinery and other types of shop act- ivities. At C. H.

The work is in advance ot that offered in ordinary home economics department in that it covers such field as social relations, home management, personal develop- ment, personal grooming, child care, marketing, textiles, interior decoration, as well as the traditional sewing and cooking. The department assists in making the plans for the daily lunch program which during the Winter Weeks serves 300 complete lunches each day. There is probobly no other course high school girls can take which they can put into use as quickly and as completely as they can the training they re- ceive in vocational homemaking.

This includes two years oi typewriting, shorthand, bookkeeping, commercial arithmetic, commercial law and junior business training. The commercial department has always been recognized as one ot the strongest in the school, and while con- tests in commercial subjects were still being held, Corning contestants ranked very high. A rather large number of graduates of this department have gone out to excellent positions in the business world. It is believed that next year it will be possible to resume the distributive education program discontinued during the war. This plan allows high school students who are in the last year of their commercial course to hold regular jobs down town during a part ot the school day, jobs for which they receive some pay and which give them training and high school credit in the commercial field. - +.f4779:+ - fnofzmaf 7-taining Depafzfmenf -.,5tE,.- The C. H. S. normal training department is the second largest in the state of lowa. For many years, the majority of the rural teachers in Adams County have been graduates oi C. H. S. During the school year l945-46, 40 of the 67 teachers of the county have been our own high school girls. Although new state legislation makes it necessary to discontinue all normal training departs- ments in 1948, ours will continue until that time to help relieve the shortage of teachers by producing trained persons for the rural schools. In addition to taking the prescribed subjects set up by law for future teachers, our normal training students receive excellent experience by doing practice teaching in the rural schools of Adams County, performing the work that is identical with what they will do when they go into teaching. The 23 students who are members of the Future Teachers of America Chapter in the Corning high school are under the direction of Miss Anna Lynam, who was for a number of years county superintendent of schools. This, in ad- dition to other experience, makes her highly qualified for the position of instructor of teacher training work. -..QW 8113..- college piepazatoty Gowzse U 11 . Many students attending C. H. S. are enrolled in its excellent college preparatory course, one of the five separate courses offered in the high school. Students who plan to go on to higher education are advised to compare the offerings of C. H. S. with those of other schools. ln this area, only Corning provides courses in such subjects as Latin, two years, algebra, geometry, advanced algebra, trigonometry, a complete four-year offering in science, namely, general science, biology, physics, chemistry. These are taught by highly skilled instructors who are specialists in their fields and who must meet the high requirements of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. The N.
