o.H.s. 1932 DEPARTMENTS OlF SCHOOL WORK j The 1932 Tillicum has been closely reduced because of financial diiiiculties. lf the Annual were allowed to drop in this time of depression it would be very hard to reestablish, so the class of 1933 has at least preserved the Tillicum tradition for its successors, The following paragraphs are a brief review of the scholastic work of theyear: A new Freshman mathematics class t1st period? was begun this year, known as General Mathematics. lt contained a study of algebra, arithmetic, geometry and trigonometry. Freshmen were equally divided between this and the old subject, algebra tlst period?. M12 Evans taught the former study and Mr. Hall the latter. The Geometry class faith period? was one of the largest in school at the first of the year, but as the work grew harder eight of the original number quit, leaving the workers to finish. Mrs. Vaughan was the teacher. Advanced algebra and solid geometry 17th period? were taught to a class of four students by Mr. Murphy. The first semester was devoted to algebra and the second to geometry. General science t7th period? was taught to a class of 17, all Freshmen. This science is very useful as an introduction to the more speciiic branches. Biology 15th period? the interesting study of plant and animal life was taken by 19 pupils. Physics and chemistry are subjects ncccssiiry for the completion of most courses of study. The two subjects are alternated from year to yearg physics being the one given this year. There were two classes, one t2nd period? of four students and the other 14th period? of seven. All sciences were taught by Mr. Evans. Each English class was quite large as the first three years of the subject are compulsory and the fourth and last year is necessary to most courses. The Freshmen 13rd period? studied grammar and read general selections of good literature. The sophomores 42nd period? studied American literature and read several American classics. The juniors t51h period? studied English literature and read a few English classics. The seniors tlst period? reviewed American litcrrture and read a number of American novels. All the English classes debated or recited current events at different times during the year. All English classes were taught by Miss Rose.
