DO YOOD OWN Help beautify America. I Think Big. but act small. Those who indulge, bulge. Don't rush me. I’m going as fast as I can! If no one claims me in 30 days. I'm YOURS. I’d rather switch than fight!THING. .. Caution: Adults at Play. Ik reasonable, do it my way. Act your Age. not your Shoe Size. Winnie the Pooh for President, the children's choice. Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band.Bedicatton JHrs. Jflascut Wc the senior class of 1969, would like to dedicate our "69" Comet to Mrs. Mason as a way of showing our gratitude for her help. Mrs. Mason has tried to help us become better students and to develop our abilities to our best advantage. Thank you. Mrs. Mason, for you assistance and guidance during the past four years. principal’s Message The word commencement usually means to students that their education is now finished, and they think formal education is at an end. Nothing could be further from the truth. Commencement means just the opposite, regardless ol what students intend to do after high school. If the individual takes a job immediately after school, he has to begin learning the job, so education continues. If the student continues some type of additional schooling, formal education goes on. So commencement is not the end, it is the beginning. The beginning of contributing to our society, the beginning of our life's work, with more independence and more responsibility. With independence and responsibility, comes the ability to handle freedom. I hope that the training you received while you were a student at Albany High School will help you after commencement. regardless of what you choose to do.Pres. Mr. Dunphy, Mr. Houlberg, Mr. Barnes.

In order to make our destination. we needed to raise money. Our first money raising project was “Rake Day ', which we held last fall. Then for fun we had a card party. The kids enjoyed it as much as the parents and guests. For the hungry people, we sponsored candy sales at noon hour. Also we had a Chcil supper in January'. The Seniors had two dances for recreation. The first was on November 15 and we featured the “Prodigal Sons." Then on January 17. we had our 1969 Homecoming. The theme was Crimson and Clover. It wasn't Halloween, but we sold brooms anyway. Maybe they bought them for next year. We also sold school sweaters in heather tones. Of course, we can’t forget our Senior Class Play. And the 1969 Comet helped us too. So the Seniors of'69 were very busy. A thank you to all who helped support us in any way and a big thank you to all the kids for their help.— • , ’ I,i J V V lii 5 ': i f Si ■V ■ •'I v vv Yi H f A 11 • L 6 j 7r - ■ Ii ■■ w V ' v , • ' , V k r-W » £ A Ut 4 UNDERCLASSMEN , '•■ Top row M.

These films were chosen from among the best Walt Disney and other popular movies and were shown at a very reasonable rate. Our class dues helped raise us another step on our ladder toward success. The third step up was the dance we held in the spring. Various minor projects were also to be considered and with hardwork and cooperation our goal was reached.QIahiiian Holiday On the night of April 27,1968. King Jim Frydenlund and Queen Shari Wood reigned at the annual Albany Junior Prom. The members of the court were: Mary Jo Heitzman escorted by Larry Hanson. Susan Durtschi escorted by John Frydenlund. Diane Keegan escorted by Jim Thompson, and Sheri Weiss escorted by John Thill. We also asked Edith Stephan and Hans Kleisch. the ’67 royalty, to be on our court. The gym was decorated in the colors of pink. blue, and yellow. A large tiki was the center of attraction, with a mural surrounding it. Music was provided by the Marvels of Beloit.Peggy Phillips, Joe Dunphy, Peggy Stefanik, Ross Ilalvcr- Flood.

We worked hard this year selling tickets to the one-act plays. We also put on a comedy which went over big. This was to earn money to send a student to a drama clinic held at a university in the summer.Albany High School was again well represented in the forensics contest this year the competition included the drama contest in the fall and the speech contest which was held in the spring. Our students were entered in almost every area open for competition.

The primary purpose of the “A” Club is to promotr athletics and good sportsmanship at Albany High School. Several fund raising drives have been sponsored since the club was reactivated, and a motion picture camera and projector have been purchased for use in taking and studying game film A definite procedure has been established in each major sport for the procuring of a letter award. This is based on a point system, and when a boy earns the necessary number of points to win a letter he automatically becomes a member of the “A” Club. An example of this is in basketball. where a total of 140 points qualifies a boy for a major letter award. He earns 5 points for each quarter in which he participates, thus earning a letter when he has played in 28 quarters.

The play is a farce, with the main plot based on a young man's mistaking a private home for an inn. The comedy arises from mistaken identities, cross-purposes, an intercepted letter and an overheard conversation. The Hardcastle’s are constantly at each other: site wants to move to London where she can sport the new fashions, and he likes the country and all things that are old “old friends, old times, old manners, old books, old wine, and an old wife.” The young man who makes the mistake is Marlow: He is bashful with virtuous women but quite bold with wom- Klossner, A.

She set out to continue the delusion to win a handsome, young husband. Miss Lumpkin, the "country bumbkin" keeps things going by impishly misleading Marlow.

Low back complications prevented Rick Clark from repeating as state CCS champion, but he led the Albany harriers to their second straight Indian Invitational Championship. The team, in a rebuilding year because of heavy graduation losses, boasted another winning season, despite the presence of many newcomers. Clark picked up invitational championships at Verona and Plat tevillc.

UarsittJ The 1968-1969 version of the Comets has been perhaps the least successful team in many years as far as won-lost records are concerned. As this is written, the record is no wins against 12 losses. Several reasons for this negative record can be given. Hie team was very short on experience, as well as stature. Early in the season two boys quit the squad for personal reasons, while another was disqualified for training discrepancies. Despite the record, the boys gave all they had. and their fight and determination is to be commended.Standing Mr. Zweifel B. Dixon J. Walmer A. Patchcn R. Blumer S. Spoerry J. Maucrman Kneeling D.

(Urnss (EountrtJ Dan Acschliman, with record-shattering performances, led the Albany Junior High School Cross Country Team to an undefeated season as the squad scored perfect scores of 15 points in each of their three meets. Acschliman set course and meet records at the Albany Invitational (5:38.2); The Indian Invitational (5:35.2); and the Sun Prairie Invitational (5:18.2). Tracy Clark garnered runner-up honors in each of the invitationals, and the two eighth graders will be tough to beat as they move into high school next year.

Miller J. Kopp R. Setzer K. Lyle G. Gibbons G. Miller Speed, agility, and experience earmarked the junior high school basketball squad for 1968-69. Although they lacked the tremendous height displayed by the other league teams, they compensated for it with good, sound basketball saavy. Nearly every other team had at least one six-footer while the Comets “big man” stood only live and a half feet tall. This accounted for the 500 season record. Dan Aeschliman provided the majority of the scoring punch with nearly fifteen points per game. He also lead the team in free throw percentage. Tracy Clark was the team leader in field goal percentage. Jim Tway, Kim Lyle, and Gary Gibbons rounded out the “top five." Todd Runaassaw action on both the seventh and eighth grade teams. The seventh graders displayed good size and were never really out of any of their bail games. 7TH GRADE BASKETBALL G. Gill J. Peterson D. Zilliox T. Runaas P. Kremkoski K. Blaser K. Hulbert J.

For the past four years most of these boys have been getting themselves ready for high school athletics and the high school squad will be much stronger next year for their presence. The strength of these harriers lies in the mile and two-mile, but the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association limits junior high track runners to a half-mile. Lack of size limited the performances this past year but conditioning and technique gave promise of good things to come. Kim Lyle. Ron Setzen. Dan Aeichliman. and Tracy Clark paced the running events while Jim Tway led the field event corps. ®rack Kneeling T. Runaas. T. Clark, D. Aeschliman. J. Lyle. P. zer. R. Miller. J. Peterson, R.
