Faculty At the heginning of the school year, four new teachers were welcomed to the Madison lligh School faculty. Mrs. Florence llarris, Mr. VVarren Aliherti, Mr. Malcolm Daggett, and Mr. Phillip llarris. The retirement of Miss lllanche VVilher has heen keenly felt hy lwoth the students and fac- ulty alike. A loyal friend, an excellent teacher, and wise counselor, Miss VVilher endeared her- self to hundreds of Madison High School grad- uates. She has left a place that will he hard to till in school life. The new school year also found many changes and improvements in the school. One new course, the Drivers' liducation course, taught hy Mr. Farnham, was hegun with -lll students taking part. This class meets as a group every VVednesday morning for general discussion. Then, each day, during the sec, ond and sixth periods. the new Chevrolet safety car. equipped with dual controls, is driven hy class memhers. who are divided into groups of four for the road instruction. This course was opened to students on the hasis of age and their familyis need for a driver. The greatest change in the curriculum took place in the Freshman class where every girl was required to take Home liconomics and every hoy, general science. ln the Freshman college course, instead of two heginning lan- guages, the students were required to elect only l.atin. They will take heginning French during their Sophomore year. To enahle every student to take gym, gym periods and study periods were held on alter- nate days. Une week, a student may have gym three times and study period twiceg on the following week the reverse is true. A typing class for college course students was given hy Mr. Harris. lfinally, to make the students better ac- quainted one with another, home rooms this year were assigned alphahetically rather than according to course, as was done in previous years, The purchase of a Ditto machine has helped teachers materially in their class work.
