Modular scheduling, an educational innovation advocated by Stanford University, emphasizes independent study. The school day is divided into 17 "mods" (short for modules) each 20 minutes long. Classes vary in length from one mod lectures to five mod laboratory periods. Under modular scheduling, students receive a weekly, rather than daily, schedule. Thus,' students may attend a certain class two or three times a week instead of every day. Classes are shortened, leaving the student more time for study on his own. Class sizes also vary. Lectures are given at the same time to all students taking a particular subject. Classes also meet in small groups averaging 15 students for discussion. Team teaching is another of the unique facets of modular scheduling. As the name suggests, two or more teachers work together to teach a particular group of students. Team teaching is used in a variety of courses. Even the most experienced Seniors find the computer schedules confusing. 4Small group discussions are used in a variety of classes. Sectionals are an important part of the music curriculum. Math open lab provides individual instruction. 5Unscheduled Time Used Many Ways Since students are given a greater amount of unscheduled time under modular scheduling, some provisions must be made to insure that this time is used to its fullest capacity. Resource centers, open labs, and student-teacher conferences are provided for this purpose. Social science, communications, and science and math resource centers provide students with materials for research in each of these areas. Serving the conventional purposes, a central library is still maintained, but with a 400 per cent increase in student use. Encouraging advanced projects, several departments utilize open labs. Open labs may be used to complete an assignment or to advance beyond the class in an area of special interest to the student. Student-teacher conferences are useful in ironing out any difficulties that may arise, both academic and vocational. Empty rooms and the student center (a student lounge) are also available during unscheduled mods. Science open lab encourages advanced experiments. Resource centers furnish reference materials. Art open lab provides students with time and equipment for individual projects. 6Mosf Representative Each year the members of the senior class select a boy and a girl who they think are most representative of their class. The two are chosen on a basis of the qualities of scholarship, leadership, service and personality. Nancy King and Bob Shannnon have been chosen as most representative for 1968.Sr. Class Officers Assume Leadership STEVE MESSERSMITH Football. Wrestling, Senior Class Play.

Freshmen Discover New World of Study ’71 37A New Profile for High School Classroom Instruction Is Designed by Faculty 38Superintendent—Dr. Stanley Wilcox. Administration Revises Educational Structure Changing from traditional educational practices to modular scheduling necessitates numerous changes. Administrators were faced with revisions in everything from daily schedules to rules and regulations-In order for students to adapt to the increased amount of unscheduled time, new disciplinary measures had to be formulated and adopted. Stronger departmentalization enabled specialization by disciplines. Programs underwent strenuous revisions in both structure and curriculum. Workshops, conferences, and lectures were provided in pre-opening sessions better to prepare teachers for their new role in the classroom. During the year, this in-service training was continued. Sessions were held periodically for the purpose of evaluation. Administrators and teachers were sent to other schools to participate in workshops. Stanford University sent consultants to aid in implementation of program plans and to advise of progress in other schools under similar programs. Board of Education—Mr. Keith Sorum, Mr. John Cover, Jr., Dr. Raymond Olson, Dr. Robert Morgan, Mr. Howard Wiseman, and Mr. Lyle Stevens. 40Principal—Mr. Leslie T. Chamberlin. Assistant Principals—Mr. Don Crowder and Mr. E. J. Brown. Campus Layout Also Revised Completion of the vocational education building brought the number of campus buildings to three. Numerous pieces of new and different equipment installed in the voc. ed. building made curricular expansion possible. With the switch to modular scheduling, high school math, communications, and social science courses were moved to the junior high building. Foreign languages and science courses remained in the high school building because of the immobility of lab equipment. Thus, courses were divided among three different buildings, making designation of any one as high school impossible. In order to cope with the problem presented by these changes, the two previously existing buildings were renamed. The high school, housing science, foreign languages, and most junior high courses, became south building. Likewise, the junior high was renamed north building- 41Personnel Aid in School Operation Educators aren't the only ones who take part in keeping the school running smoothly. Secretaries, custodians, cooks, and the nurse all play an important role in safeguarding the student's welfare and making the school day pleasant. Whether it is a transcript of grades or just a lunch ticket a student desires, the office secretaries are always obliging. Providing meals which are both well-balanced and palatable, the cooks serve over 410 students daily. Keeping school facilities clean and in good repair is the job of the custodians. Annually checking eyes, ears, throat, height, and weight, is a part of the nurse's duties. This year a fifth group was added to personnel. Teachers’ aids and para-professionals are in charge of the resource centers. Teachers' aids—Mmes. Dorothy Mills, Jean Metz, Bernice Johnson, and Sandra Brungard are in charge of resource centers. Secretaries Mrs. Kay Morris, Mrs. Donna Leach, Mrs. Janice Harris, Mrs. Jo Brown, Miss Dixie Rader, and Mrs. Margaret Copple are always willing to help students. 42Cooks Mmes. Molly Nuss, Ethel McCullah. Alice Hellinger, Elsie Smith, Pearl Ferbrache, and Grace Brungard provide students with nourishing and delicious meals daily. Custodians Red Wilmott, Corky Cordell, John Augustine, and Bob Roebuck keep halls and classrooms tidy. Nurse Mrs. Merritt makes her annual record of Christy Thies' height and weight. 43Communications Dept. Stresses “Expression” Encompassing English, journalism, speech, and foreign language, the communications Department stresses the necessity of expression both oral and written. Utilizing the modular approach, the department phases small group discussions and large group lectures. A writing lab is also included in the English curriculum. Journalism students delve even deeper into the realm of the written word. Their endeavors, are rewarded by the bi-weekly publication of a newspaper. Speech courses are designed to develop skills in public speaking. For the student interested in foreign languages, courses in Latin, Spanish, and German are offered. Miss Erma Winterer B.S. Spanish, German Tape recorder and headphones available in the resource center enable students to review lectures. Here senior Joanne Vogel utilizes this equipment as Mr. Bernard Becker monitors.

English English Teachers’ Offices Prove Beneficial; Departmental Formality Transcended Just as students must adjust to new concepts and practices this year, teachers are faced with at least one major change. This year, central departmental offices were introduced facilitating all teachers within the department. Although Ynany teachers questioned the loss of privacy, the venture has worked out amazingly well. The transcending of formality has strengthened intra-department relationships as well as cementing curricular continuity on all subject areas- 45Mrs. Alice Nelson B.A. Dept. Chairman Algebra. Yearbook Mrs. Evelyn Ware M.A. Algebra Mr. James Hawlc B.S. Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry Mr. James McDermott B.S. General Math, Algebra, Geometry Math Open Lab Is New Venture Constructions demand deep concentration from senior Lois Andrick. Operating five mods a day, the math open lab has proved popular with students and teachers alike. Teachers are enabled to reach those students who truly desire help during the school day as well as administer make-up tests. By the same token, students may obtain assistance without staying after school, a particularly pleasing facet. Besides individual help, the open lab offers other advantages. Students taking contract courses are provided with a peaceful working area. Interested students are often found discussing current math trends. Periodicals and other similar literature pertaining to math are also available. All in all, this experimental venture has proved highly successful and effective. 46Science Emphasizes Laboratory Projects With the increased amount of unscheduled time, science teachers are enabled to place greater emphasis on laboratory work. Instead of working an hour at a time, students now may spend as much as three consecutive hours in the lab. With the emphasis on lab work and an unusually large chemistry class, it became necessary to use senior students who had completed chemistry as lab assistants. These assistants supervised lab work and were responsible for maintaining equipment. For the first time a biology lab manual was used. Thus, biological experiments beyond simple dissections were performed. General science and physics students were encouraged to utilize laboratory facilities more fully. More experiments were done by students on an individual basis rather than as demonstrations. "At least it's dead,” thinks Karen West of her next biology project. Mr. Fred Petersen B.A. Dept. Chairman Physics. Science Mr. Donald Farrell B.A. Biology Mr. Larry Grosshans B.S. Biology Mr. William Marchant B.S. Physics, Chemistry 47Diversified Occupations New Program Initiated Along with the changes in structure, a new course was added. Diversified Occupations, a unique method of vocational training, features on-the-job training. Students participating in the program attend classes for a half-day and work the other half, receiving regular credit for their school work. Along with the courses required for graduation, a student is enrolled in a related occupational information class for which he receives credit also. A minimum of ten hours a week are spent at work. Offered to juniors and seniors, the program has become popular. Fourteen students participated in the initial program. Among the jobs offered are positions as a partsman, nurse's aid, secretary, and clerk. Students also work in the areas of auto mechanics, photography, and retail distribution. Senior Leora Carr seems to enjoy her work in photography. Auto mechanics is Tom Rust's field of interest. 48 Mr. Bruce Rockey M.S. Dept. Chairman Vocational Ed. Mr. Larry Huntsman M.S. Diversified OccupationsMr. Arthur Foos B.S. Typing. Bookkeeping Mrs. Juanita Glarum M.A. Typing, Shorthand Mr. Kenneth Ware M.A. Vocational Agriculture Vocational Ed. Is Practical Training Under the watchful eye of Mr. Foos, Shirley Glarum painstakingly completes her next typing assignment. Providing a broad base for meeting the demands of earning a living in the ever increasing complexity of life, the Vocational Department meets its major challenge. Students are provided with knowledge of opportunities in the various vocational fields. All courses are designed to develop competence in the student's chosen area. Courses in carpentry and auto mechanics are new this year. Students may also take courses in office practice, typing, and shorthand. In addition, vocational agriculture and secretarial training are offered. Utilizing new carpentry equipment are Bob Todd and Dennis Cornish. 49Libraries Provide Research Materials Under traditional scheduling, two libraries served the Alliance secondary system. One was for grades 7-9 and the other for grades 10-12. With the change over to modular scheduling, both libraries are opened to all students. Together the two libraries provide 9500 books and 82 periodicals. Along with research materials and pleasure reading, the library also provides study area. Library usage has increased 400% indicating the importance of an instructional materials center. "Quiet or we'll get thrown out again," whispers Sue Fuller to Deb Lurvey and Cindy Dingman. Library assistants Bruce Messersmith, Judi Biles, and Kathi Rachetts are among the 48 aids who help the librarians. Mrs. Vivian Andrews B.S. Dept.

Enrich the Curriculum Providing variation in the regular academic routine, physical education classes stress fitness and coordination. Students participate in gymnastics, basketball, and softball. Volleyball, track, and speedball are also popular. Defensive driving practices are taught in drivers' education. Through driving experience and classroom work, skills are developed. Checking the oil in the driver's education car is Marvin Ackerman. 51Mr. Myron Jasnoch Mr. Tom Hovorlca M.S. M.S. Social Science Social Science Mr. Terry Gilliland Miss Ellen Christensen B.A. M.A. Social Science Social Science Social Science Stresses Small Group Discussions Changes in the social science curriculum brought about by modular scheduling include the initiation of discussion groups and team teaching. Because of the reduced size of discussion groups, the entire class may discuss more informally. In fact, teachers feel that the smaller groups enable students to participate more fully. Team teaching has also proved successful. In the American History classes, lectures are prepared and delivered with all three teachers working together. The material is then reviewed and explained further in small groups presided over by one of the teachers. All social science courses emphasize current events. Pointing out the responsibility of a citizen to be well-informed, teachers seek to relate world happenings to daily living. Mr. Willis Furman B.A. Dept.

Mechanical drawing is serious business to students Ron Sutton and Charlie Vasquez and their teacher Mr. Byron Nelson. Practical Arts Develop Skills Helping students develop useful skills, practical arts courses serve their major purpose. Skills needed in becoming a competent homemaker are formed in the home economics department. Food and nutrition, clothing and textiles, and family living are covered in three years of classroom work. Stressing work with leather, ceramics, and wood, top-quality projects are completed by industrial arts students. Engineering drawing students develop skills in perspective drawing, mechanical drawing, and architectural blue-printing. 53Mrs. Juliet Rowbotham B.S. Art Art Students Delve Into New Areas Increased unscheduled time enables art students to spend more time on art. Independent projects as well as regular classroom projects are made possible. Students may delve more deeply into areas of particular interest. In classroom work, such areas as ceramics, color, and design are studied in depth- Lettering is also covered. Such terms as Gothic, chancery, Italic, and unical soon become familiar to all students. A potter's wheel was also obtained this year offering students another area of study. Individual projects such as John Sampson’s sculpture are popular. A typical unscheduled mod in the art department finds many students absorbed in independent study. 54 )"How do you expect me to play that?" asks Carolyn Frei-berger of Mr. Maxwell. Music Encourages Cultural Appreciation Music, with its universal appeal, plays an important role in enriching our cultural background. Band, orchestra, and choir are all included in the music curriculum. Participation in these three groups acquaints students with compositions other than those made famous by such groups as the "Lemon Pipers." Modular scheduling brought about several changes in music courses. For the first time, sectionals and private lessons were scheduled into the school day. Students were enabled to spend more time practicing. Also, for the first time, both string and wind players met durinq school time for orchestra rehearsals. 55The New Profile for Campus Life Is Enjoyed by Student Body I 56Outside Bulletin Board Forecasts Coming Events Sparking interest and adding to the revised school system, the recently installed outside bulletin board adds a distinctive tone to the school campus. Besides announcing football games, dances, and other special events, the bulletin board will always stand as a lasting reminder of the graduating class of 1967. The bulletin board became a center of interest when it announced the homecoming events. Starting with the burning of the "A", the homecoming progressed through an exciting football game, the crowning of the queen, and the homecoming dance. Also deserving bulletin board attention were the annual county government day and the arrival of German Castella, the Rotary Exchange Student from Argentina. This year the county government day was held on October 24. It is an honor for students to take over the reins of county government under the supervision of county officials. Junior Class Float wins first prize. 58Homecoming candidates Barbara Edwards, Jane Timbers, and Debbie Pillow are paraded before the football crowd.

Expectation of Christmas vacation isn't the only event that dominates the thoughts of the student body. Anticipation of the annual Pep Club Formal holds a key spot in the holiday enthusiasm. This year the theme of "Snow King's Ball" was skillfully carried out in the royal blue, purple, and light blue streamers that flowed from the huge crown in the middle of the dance floor. A drawbridge, shields of honor, and suits of armor accented the theme of "Knights of Old." The highlight of the evening was the crowning of the Pep Club Boyfriend, Larry Hatch, and his attendants. Basketball season, which begins during the Christmas month, is enjoyed by the student body and adult spectators. Some of the unorganized activities seemed to be a lot of fun Beagle, Mike Darveau, David Minnick, Jo Anne Tutt, Kenny even though they were illegal. Throwing snowballs are Jim Wood, Janet Wilkins, and Debbie Duerksen. 61Spring Arrives With Graduation Activities Winter ends and spring returns to clothe the barren landscape once again with life and warmth. The chirping of carefree birds and the inviting glow of the sun tempt seniors to dream about that long awaited prom. It becomes easy to shirk studying for those dreaded final exams. Graduation, the main event of this season, is as •'familiar as the rose in spring." Yet, it is a treasured and memorable event for each senior Exchanging pictures, signing yearbooks, choosing announcements, and attending that last senior party are all a part of this whirl of activities. Tears of joy and sorrow brush the countenance of many a senior as each slowly marches down that aisle for graduation ceremonies. Choosing senior announcements proves to be a difficult task for Nancy Dreyer and Bill Schommer. Prom Chairmen—Alice Covalt, Karen Albright, Doug Rusk, Marsha Trank, Dave Kirchner, Marilyn Mason, Della Rubeck, and Pat Way, find themselves involved in detailed plans. 62Twins Susan and Sandie Loveless, and Joan and Judy Hashman vocational plans.

Special awards serve a double purpose. The recipient of such an award is inspired to continue with his work. At the same time, others are spurred on to receive similar praise. Anticipation runs especially high among seniors. Countless scholarships and awards are received by outstanding seniors each year. These students deserve both praise and congratulations for their well-deserved honors. Award Winners—Elks Leadership Award Winner Barb Schommer, Betty Crocker Homemaker Kathi Rachetts. European Tour member Larry Duerksen, Co-ed Correspondent Nancy Dreyer, McCall’s Award winner Judy Hoshman.

Junior Play Is Huge Challenge Black scenery, few props, and simple costumes presented the perfect setting for the junior class play, "The Crucible." Love, hatred, conflict, and death were all spun Into one of the most stirring dramas of our time. Since the play Is suggested for a college cast, the Alliance High Juniors took on a huge challenge when they started preparing for their final performance on November 14. Although it received completely different responses from the audience on each of the two nights it was performed, "The Crucible" was considered a success by all involved.

Lee and Jerome Lawrence. Based on the Scopes Trial of 1925, which was concerned with the teaching of Darwin's Theory of Evolution in the public schools, the play uses religion and drama to add conflict as lawyers Mathew Harrison Brady and Henry Drummond clash over beliefs ranging far beyond the immediate issues. Bitter-sweet triumph came to each lawyer and to the audience as the final curtain closed on "Inherit the Wind."

Choir and Orchestra directors, Mr. Bill Neergaard and Mrs. Dusty Neergaard. Melodies Contrasted in ‘Mod’ Orchestra If one walks info the orchestra room, he hears the high notes of the piccolo contrasted with those of the massive bass. Modular scheduling, for the orchestra student, provides individual lessons during the school day- Also new to the orchestra is the technique of increased resonance with vibratto and the use of new fingering positions. These new techniques paid off in a very successful season of concerts ranging from the traditional Christmas Concert held jointly with the choir, up to the highlight of the orchestra season, the spring musical held in April. Other concerts during the year were an April concert, the musical, "Oklahoma," and the District Music contest at Chadron.Sectionals Practice During School Hours With computer scheduling the choir director found he was able to schedule sectional practices into the school day. This eliminated the old fallacy where some students practice and others never discipline themselves to the drudgery of daily routine. A highly successful season of concerts resulted from this change. Building up to the highlight of the season, the choir held many concerts such as the Christmas Concert, the Choral Clinic, and the April Concert. Also in April they participated in the District Music Concert at Chadron, Nebraska. Their season ended with a delightful performance of "Oklahoma." The goal of the year was to gain choral literature experience and in general, to learn to sing well; both were carried out very successfully. Mixed Choir—FRONT ROW: Carolyn Freiberger. Judie Biles.

The Bulldogs were plagued by a vast array of injuries. After playing the nine scheduled games, they were left with only seven of the offensive and defensive starters. Beginning the season with a game against the Chadron Cardinals, the Bulldogs were slowed by a defeat. After a week to recover, the home gridders were pitted against the Lincoln East team and won. Next the Sidney Maroons were defeated in a flashing clash. After that game the Bulldogs fell to Gering and North Platte respectively. The last four games were bitter losses to Ogallala, McCook, Kearney, and Scottsbluff. Bulldogs being honored for the '67 season were Bob Shannon, Dave Kamerzell, Dan Spencer, and Ronnie Peltz who won berths for the Western Conference. The Big Ten Conference gave recognition to Peltz and Kamerzell.

In the ensuing weeks they defeated Sidney and Scottsbluff to the tune of 13-0 and 33-0. The closing game saw the frosh battling a strong Gering squad to a 0-0 tie.

In a furious clash, the Alliance cagers were able to turn back the Cardinals. Still full of spirit, Alliance won their next two games against Gering and Kearney. Faced with stubborn defenses and stiff competition, the Bulldogs then fell into a three-game losing streak, falling to North Platte, McCook, and Sidney. Coming back against arch-rival Scottsbluff, the Bulldogs played to a thrilling overtime victory. The next two games were hard battles, but proved fruitful with wins over Gering and Ogallala. Again plagued by a losing streak, the varsity b-ballers dropped five games, Kearney, Scottsbluff, McCook, North Platte, and Sidney. They came back again to win over Ogallala, only to lose to Chadron. 811967-1968 Reserve Basketball Team—Tom Andrews, Jerry Tolstedt. Scott Bates, Mike Green, Rich Nolda, Steve Barrett, Don Roberts.

The added experience and training paid off for the grapplers in their next two meets when they chalked up victories over Gordon and Bayard.

Girls participated in a varied program which deepens their concern for others. "Midwinter Night's Dream" was the theme of the Orpheum—the Y-Teens' major fund raising project- Proceeds from this aided in providing for the education of a Chinese child, Yue Yan Che.
