Crest, I932 Peoria High School during l93l-32 THIS year there are nearly two thousand students at Peoria High School, owing to increased enrollment and insufficient number of rooms, a two shift day was introduced at the beginning of the year. The first shift begins at 7:56 A.M. and ends at 1:19 P.M., the second shift starts at 11:11 A.M. and closes at 4:54 P.M. There are eleven hours in all, each shift remaining seven hours. The fifth, sixth, and seventh hours are lunch hours. Each hour is forty minutes in length. On Wednesday there are assemblies after seventh hour, the two assemblies alternating with the two lunch hours. The freshmen and sophomores go to the first assembly, and the juniors and seniors to the second. On Wednesdays when there are no assemblies there are activity days, fol- lowing the same program as assembly day. On these days club meetings are held, each club having at least one meeting a month. Each student is allowed three clubs. Among the new clubs formed this year are the Archery Club, Astronomy Club, Radio Club, Home-Craft Club, Kodak Club, Stamp Club, and Movie Makers Club. Astronomy and Geology study groups convene after school once every week. The most important additions to our school system are our new teachers. Miss Anna Tjaden, Supervisor of Home Economics in the Peoria Public Schools, introduced a new subject first semester,-Home Economics for boys. Miss Katherine jackson is the new teacher of Harmony and Music. Miss Mamie McGrath and Miss Helen Munsterman both teach English. Mr. joseph Meyers and Mr. john Dunlop came at the beginning of the second semester, and are in the Social Science department, Mr. Meyers also teaches English.

Mr. Llewellyn Wiley teaches Algebra and Geometry. Mr. Irving Bradley, who has directed the band and orchestra at Peoria High in past years, is now here every day instead of once or twice a week, as formerly. No account of Peoria High School activities for the year would be com- plete without mention of the Parent-Teacher Association, which was very active during 1931-1932. Its many projects included the creation of the Memorial Library which has added many books to the school library, and the purchase of new uniforms for the band. Regular monthly meetings were held, on which occasions parents had the opportunity of talking with the teachers about the pupils' work at school. The association co-operated with the prin- cipal and faculty in advancing the work of the school and in interesting parents in the school. Ofiicers for the year were: president, Mrs. C. H. Gamble, vice-president, Sidney Williams, secretary, George Reagan, treasurer, Mrs. Anna Wisman, Committee chairmen: program, Harold Lynch, member- ship, Dan Anderson, refreshment, Mrs. A.
