 . Dialogue — The All Important Key From Ideas Dialogue is the spar| which ignites the campus life of any institution of learning. Modular Scheduling individualizes the dialogue of A.H.S. There are sparkling “Chitchats" and lively "bull-sessions.” Students sound off "loud and clear" in meaningful and informative class discussions. This interaction triggers the free-flowing spirit of learning and thought from books to faculty and student. Stimulating materials are presented to the students in small groups. These materials prompt the students’ individual application of ideas for reception or rejection. Thay’re sounding off in a lively gab test. v 2to Self-Expression Some say it with pictures. Nature influences self-expression. Wind Handicaps friendly chats.

Now and then those books talk back. Student Life Is Styled by Printed and Oral Words "The printed word” of student publication plays an important role in the AHS scene. “Lively discussions" give students an opportunity to speak out on matters concerning them. "Pep talks and decisions" cement action on the athletic field or court. "A persuasive smile" doesn't hinder popularity and a social life. ‘‘Who ’ new!”Co-Curricular Events Spur High-Spirited Dialogue During the first day of school there was a rush and grab for schedules and hurried greetings between friends. Changing schedules became the next order of the day and a long line formed in front of the principal's office. After settling down to a slow rumble and busy schedules became routine, one found the spotlight often focused on extracurricular events. Fall brought the Homecoming game with North Platte. The gayly decorated halls gave an extra boost to the high spirits of the student body. Climaxing the fanfare of events was the election of Barb Metz as Homecoming Queen. Adding to all the excitement of the year was the selection of class rings by the juniors. ‘Where have you been all summer?" “Oh, brother! look at this schedule." “You’ve got to be kidding — size 10!" 6mm I 1 969 Homecoming Royalty: Barb Powell, First Attendant; Barb Metz, Homecoming Queen; Andrea Abbott, Second Attendant. Homecoming decorations are given the 'once-over.’ 7She’s unbelievably idiotic! Drama Introduces Students to New World The junior class opened the AHS dramatic season with the presentation of Mary Chase's “Harvey.” The comedy was an audience pleaser and drew a large crowd. “Brigadoon,” the all school musical, was a delightful experience for both audience and students. Students displayed their talents in singing and acting. Thespian one acts were selected and directed by its members. The final production found the Thespians presenting "The Stolen Prince," "Was It Heaven or Hell?” and "Impromptu." The “Harvey” cast beams about its play. It pays to sweet-talk the boss. 8“The Stolen Prince’1 was a barrel of laughs. “Impromptu” was chosen as best of the one-act plays.Pep Club Formal royalty includes Dave Best, Attendant; Janet Garwood, Secretary; Marilyn King, President; Jon Schommer, Pep Club Boyfriend; Karen Christensen, Vice-President; Pat Edwards, Attendant. Couples merrily dance about huge Christmas tree centerpiece at Pep Club Formal. 10Sandy Homrighausen and John Ullrich look at Pep Club Formal gifts. Francie Bright and Bruce Toline rehearse for Orpheum as Marilyn Dill looks on. Holiday Spirit Lingers Into New Decade Although the snow fell in October, but was missing in December, the holiday spirit still drifted into the corridors of AHS. The two magic months, December and January, contained many hours in days of fun and entertainment. Sports events, concerts, the Y-Teen Orpheum, and the annual Pep Club Formal highlighted the activities. “An Old-Fashioned Christmas” was the theme of the Pep Club Formal. Eminent was the huge Christmas tree centerpiece and the freshman elf servants. Decked out in formal attire, the many students and faculty members enjoyed an evening of entertainment. A new decade was ushered in with 1 970 and along came the snow. The Y-Teen Orpheum centered around “Doing Our Own Thing” was presented and the A-Club sponsored the comical Harlem Travelers basketball team to round out the two wintry months. Deb Kramer warms up for radio program. IICampus Scene Includes ‘Off Guard’ Moments School just wouldn't be school without an occasional spurt of “goofing off” or periods of real contemplation. Commotion in the halls at each mod break offers a chance to exchange greetings amid that rush to the next class. Weather often presents a change in student activity. There is always ample opportunity for pushing cars out of drifts or for taking advantage of the slick snow as a legitimate excuse for being late. Here are captured some of those "off guard,” impromptu moments so typical of the AHS scene. It’s time out for a "funny.” There’s always time for talk. Dialogue in the halls involves many subjects. 13Graduation Terminates Hectic Schedule Recollecting — their first days in high school . . . those many, many nights of study . . . the agony of defeat . . . the ecstasy of triumph . . . the final realization of a close in the high school career comes for the AHS class of '70. Spring is filled with numerous activities centered about senior students. The annual Y-Teen Senior dinner and Junior-Senior Prom round out the busy schedule. It is at Honors Convocation when students expect certain honors and appreciate them, but often the unexpected ones bring on an added measure of happiness. A variety of awards are offered for excellence in diverse fields. That final march down the aisle with "pomp and circumstance” signals the finale of graduation ceremonies. Commencement marks the beginning of a new life in a world of challenges, colleges, and careers. Administrators ore pleased to present those coveted diplomas. 1970 Seniors face new horizons. 14ACADEMICS Encourage Dialogue Via the Printed WordAdministration Enriches Curriculum Content Behind every school system is a School Board and Superintendent attempting to provide the best available education for the entire student body. This year the administration has concentrated on offering a comprehensive education which is both academically and vocationally sound. The administration provides a broad curriculum so that individuals can find their own particular interests. The school has succeeded in maintaining AA academic standards; now their goal is to attain the same vocational recognition. This innovative, yet practical, approach at all levels of AHS administration has provided success. This same future-oriented spirit should prove even more gratifying in years to come. Superintendent: Dr. Stanley Wilcox Board of Education: Mr. Richard Jaggers; Secretary Mr. Keith Sorum; Vice-President Mr. John Cover, Jr.; President Mr. Howard Wiseman; Mr. Lyle Stephens and Mr. Jack Mowder. 16Guidance Counselors Mrs. Phyllis Neuswarger and Mr. William Dreyer. Principal: Mr. Leslie T. Chamberlin. Assistant Principals: Mr. Larry Grosshans and Mr. Don Crowder. Grosshans Assumes New Principal Post Secondary school administrators faced new problems and situations this year when they shortened the mods from 20 minutes to 1 3 minutes. All classes were structured for at least two mods. The student center became a study hall and a supervisor, Mr. Kosmicki, was hired. Solved among the situations and problems was the adoption of the new dress code brought about by suggestions of the student council and other students. Mr. Don Crowder was moved from assistant principal in the North Building to that position in the South Building. Coach Grosshans left his post as biology teacher to become the assistant principal in the North Building. 17School Personnel Keeps AHS Coordinated A big part of our school involves several people with the job of “holding down the fort.1' These active people are the variant personnel who, with their specialized jobs, help maintain a co-ordinated school system. In the offices of the north and south buildings the secretaries are always available to meet any problem or know where to send one to get the answer. Para-professionals in the three resource centers help students find materials and assist teachers in many ways. Thanks to the cafeteria staff a nourishing hot lunch is provided at noon. The school nurse makes sure all people in school are healthy with her annual check of weight, eyes, and teeth. The custodians keep the school clean and maintain the facilities. Para-professionals: Mrs. Linnien Messersmith, Mrs. Sandra Brungard, Mrs. Mavis McLean. School Secretaries: Mrs. Rosie Wacker, Mrs. Dixie Bloom, Mrs. Kay Morris, Mrs. Janice Harris. 18Cafeteria Staff: Mmes. Grace Brungard, Amelia Nuss, Katherine Reitz Pearl Ferbrache, Elsa Smith, Margaret Garrett, Alyce Hullinger. School Nurse: Mrs. Thelma Merritt checks Francis Prelle's ' height. School Custodians: Red Wilmott, Bob Roebuck, Lupe Garza. 19MRS. EUNICE PETERSEN English MR. BERNARD BECKER Dept. Chairman English Communication Courses Stress Importance of Individual “Just as well enjoy it," thinks Carol Lawrence. Thought-inspiring works of transcendental-ists Emerson and Thoreau . . . the relationship of sin and retribution . . . Shakespeare's revenge tragedies ... all are building blocks in the growth of the student. The English Department is concerned with growth of the individual through the development of his personal philosophy. The Department aids the student in the exploration of written works, allowing him to “fall into” the studied material. The student accepts some new ideas and rejects others, receiving bases for his own life concept. The importance of the individual is constantly stressed. MRS. JERALDINE DAVIS English MRS. JANE HUNTER English 20MRS. VERA BRIGGS MRS. SHERRIE CURTISS Lotin, English English MISS Dl ANN HAMMOND MRS. SEMELINA McPEEK German Spanish, English MR. DALE CLARKE MISS LORRAINE FORD Journalism English English Resource Center Encourages Study and Research Listening to tapes . . . viewing filmstrips . . . using reference materials . . . each in some way makes use of the valuable assets of the Communications Resource Center. This study area provides numerous opportunities for students to use materials not available elsewhere. Many reference materials are on hand for students to use for assignments. Reseachers find abundant resources of needed information in the books, films, and records found in the Resource Center. Each student is encouraged to use his own resources while delving into his area of communication interest. Those records fascinate Debbie Fulton. Concentration becomes Mike Lewis. 21Prisms puzzle Lynne Thompson. Math Is Essential for Many Vocations Larger than, equal to, or less than . . . solution set of the equation . . . empty set . . . congruent triangles . . . discovery method . . . proofs by mathematical deduction; this is the familiar jargon of the math department. Students adapt the vocabulary and use it to an advantage. Two years of math are required and four years are offered to those who wish it. Modern math textbooks help students meet the demand for a better understanding of the math used in a growing number of scientific and technical fields. “X” marks the spot for Ken Holloway. MRS. EVELYN WARE Alegbra MRS. ALICE NELSON Dept. Chairman Algebra, Yearbook MR. JAMES HAWK Geometry, Algebra Trigonometry mr. james mcdermott General Math, Algebra Geometry 22Students Explore Their Environment Suspense grows as Toby Helgesen and Wynette Becker watch Carol Stone. Dissecting animals . . . combining chemicals . . . exploring the earth . . . each gives the student a broader outlook of the world surrounding him. Through science classes, the student makes explorations into the unknown, discovering worlds within a world. Utilizing lab privileges, students are able to work by themselves, proceeding at their own speed. The more advanced students, interested in science as a career, are allowed to take a second-year Biology or Chemistry course to further their science education. Experimenting is serious business for Bob Peltz. MR. JERRY GARDNER MRS. WINIFRED KNOFLICEK Biology, Aviation Biology MR. FRED PETERSEN Dept. Chairman General Science MR. WILLIAM MARCHANT Chemistry, Physics 23Libraries Supply Valuable Reading Materials Using various encyclopedias and magazines for research . . . studying in a quiet area . . . these are common scenes in the high school libraries. The two libraries work together in encouraging students to expand their knowledge by investing in the reading materials provided. Some of the greatest recorded thoughts of man are available to the students in the libraries. Through reading, one can examine the thoughts of others and compare them to his own ideas. Students are able to be all they can be by reading. “She’s watching us, ' whispers Carrolle Liebers to Carol Wernke and Deb Ravert. “Two weeks,” Levon Juzenas and Jo Anne Smith remind Catherine Peterson. MRS. VIVIAN ANDREWS Dept. Chairman South High Librarian MRS. ESTHER MYERS North High Librarian 24“I know that note’s on here,” sighs De Ann Collins. Fine Arts Enhance Curriculum Offerings Long hours of practice . . . memorizing music and lines for a performance . . . "polishing up" that one rough spot . . . each is an important role in the educational maturity of future musicians and drama students. Under the fine arts program, many students are given the opportunity to expand their horizons of knowledge in the fields of interpretative music and drama. Students are taught to strive for perfection in what they do and to appreciate the efforts of others. The fine arts division not only gives the students the feeling of achievement; it also enriches their cultural background.

Chairman Modern Problems American History World History American Government Sociology Economics MISS ELLEN CHRISTENSEN Cultural Geography World History Social Sciences Span Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow Learning of yesterday's historical events and dreaming of tomorrow's ideal society . . . pondering upon past achievements and tomorrow's problems . . . these are the challenges posed by the social studies curriculum. Through stress placed on history, students learn of the achievements and defeats that have changed the course of human events. Special emphasis is placed on the world of today. Aided by books, films and instructors, students gain enlightenment regarding the world around them. They develop empathy for understanding foreign cultures and civilizations as well as a better understanding of history’s impact on today’s world. MR. PHIL SCHWEITZER American History Which article interests Diane Leever? 26To display his art work is a privilege for John Aguiniga. MRS. JULIET ROWBOTHAM Art Art Dep’t. Inspires Creative Projects Painting a garden from a bird's eye view . . . weaving without a loom . . . sculpting with paper . . . each making use of one’s own creative talent and the various skills taught by the Art Department. Students are encouraged to use their own minds and individual talent while working with the various art media. Aspiring students become acquainted with new ways of expressing themselves through imaginative production. Some strive for realism while others create works with a touch of abstraction. Many student efforts are displayed in the art room itself, with the best entered in various contests throughout the year. There is an atmosphere of pleasant relaxation in the art room. 27“Just give me time,” laughs Debbie Fulton to her spotters Andrea Abbott and Rhonda Rask. Physical Education Proves Stimulating Tumbling on a mat . . . balancing on a beam . . . enjoying competitive games . . . improves the physical fitness of a student. In physical education classes the student is encouraged to improve himself through perfection of physical skills. Muscles never used before might ache at first, but hard work and effort soon pay off. Each individual learns the importance of becoming physically fit and staying that way. This knowledge is instilled in him and he will continue to use it for years to come. MISS SANDRA PILFOLD MR. PAUL CHANEY Physical Education Physical Education It looks easy for long-legged Roger Kotschwar. 28It’s another practice run for Warren Schmidt. Team members enjoy active participation in volleyball. MR. ROBERT MORRIS Drivers' Education Drivers’ Ed Stresses Safety at Wheel Steering a wheel . . . using the proper signal . . . making a correct left turn . . . all are a part of driving, yes; but merely these skills do not make a good and safe driver. Drivers' Education teaches more than just the fundamentals of operating a motor vehicle. The student driver is shown how he can make the streets and highways safe for everyone. Consideration for others and defensive driving are impressed upon the student. After taking the Drivers' Education course, each student feels the responsibility that is his when he takes the wheel. 29“Any questions?” asks Jules Ostrander. Vocational Ed Provides Practical Experience Installing a souped-up engine in an old car . . . remodeling an old jalopy . . . inspecting the grades of meats . . . these are points that attract a boy’s attention. In vocational mechanics and agriculture courses, boys are able to pursue these points of interest while they are enrolled in school. The vocational courses provide practical training for all students. Trainees gain a practical knowledge that will be very useful in later years whether they pursue the fields as a career or in everyday life. It looks complicated to all but Marvin Ackerman. MR. BRUCE ROCKEY MR. KENNETH WARE Dept. Chairman Vocational Agriculture Vocational Education 30Business Ed Produces Stenographic Expertise It's all business for Sharon Hagihara. Taking dictation accurately and quickly . . . typing with sureness and ability . . . becoming familiar with correct office procedures . . . each plays an important part in the Vocational Business Course. Through the use of standard and electric typewriters, students learn various techniques employed in composing themes, reports, and business work. Dictation tapes enable future stenographers to develop their skills in shorthand. Adding machines aid potential business personnel. The Vocational Business Course stresses adequate and efficient business procedures for students, preparing them for a life in the office world. There are no shortcuts in shorthand for Sandy Homrighausen. MRS. JUANITA GLARUM MRS. MARY LUE HUNTSMAN Shorthand, Typing Typing MR. LARRY HUNTSMAN Diversified Occupations, Mechanics MR. JOHN ABBOTT General Business Bookkeeping 31Practical Arts Prepare for Everyday Life Tailoring a fashionable spring outfit . . . preparing a nutritious as well as delicious meal . . . tooling and designing leather . . . these are some of the skills taught by the practical arts department. Students enrolled in home economics or arts and crafts discover how various utensils and materials can be used efficiently and effectively in creating a finished product. Well-equipped classrooms give students a preview of their future vocational interests and the opportunity to develop their skills in their chosen fields. Two points stressed in the practical arts department are an interest in the vital aspects of living and the improving of one's living conditions. “Do they look good enough to eat?” Lee Ann Mathews asks Carol Jensen. MR. BYRON NELSON Industrial Arts 32Meaningful DialogueBulldogs Endure Gruelling Season Coach Mike Kennedy's second year at AHS saw the gridiron Bulldogs enduring a punishing three win and six loss season. The Bulldog offensive and defensive machines just could not mesh in all games and produced only three victories. Even though the offense and defense sputtered at times, many stars sparkled in the ranks. Senior quarterback Cody Davis broke passing records and end Randy Borg toppled reception records. Seniors Dave Best, Gregg Seebohm, Mark Hungerford, and Greg Novicki led the defensive efforts. Offensively, stars were backs Don Brown, Bob Lehl, and Jon Schommer and end Tim Nagaki. Prospects for future years shone with efforts from Juniors Tim Spencer, Jerry Seiler, Mike Tolstedt, Steve Wickham, Dick Best, Steve Brown, Don Failor, Chuck Ushio, and Don Zurn. Jim Colwell, Steve Zurn, Al Heidingsfelder, Charlie Dingman, and Rich Haslow showed sophomore potential. Alliance broke the 1 3-game Big Ten losing streak by beating Kearney, one of the bright spots of the year. Cha-dron and Gering will be seeking revenge next year for setbacks at the hands of the fighting Bulldogs. 1969 Varsity Football Team — front Row: Chris Abbott, Charlie Dingman, Dan Sanchez, Alan Heidingsfelder, Dean Forney, Jon Schommer.

Leading the charge for the Bullpups were Tim Borg, Mike Vallejo, Tracy Turman, Mike Shannon, and Schuyler Dawn, offensive standouts and Mark Watson and Cory Manewal on defense.

Reserves Sport Winning Season A stubborn defense and potent offense helped the reserve football squad produce a winning season. Made up entirely of underclassmen, the Bulldog " B'' team earned a three win and two loss record. Junior leadership and sophomore talent contributed to a worthwhile cause which may prove fruitful for varsity years. Starting the season off right, the Bulldogs whipped Bridgeport and toppled Sidney then lost a heart-breaker to North Platte. The last two games were split decisions; the Reserves outscored Cha-dron and then suffered a setback at Gering in the season's finale. RESERVE FOOTBALL AHS 26 . . . .

This earned the Bulldogs the right to call themselves the number one challenger to league winners Scottsbluff in the district tournament. Alliance also faced McCook, who dropped two regular season games to the Bulldogs, and North Platte, who split two games with Alliance. The Bulldogs fared well in Western Conference action by cinching the title with the defeat of a sinking Kimball team. Alliance was led by sharpshooting seniors Randy Borg and Pat Edwards and rebounding Rich Nolda; next year's team will sport many veterans. Regulars Tim Spencer, Rick Walker, Lonnie Cowher, and Brad Bar-rows will bolster hopes of an even brighter season. Reserve players Don Failor, Mike Dietrich, Jerry Seiler, Steve Zurn, Don Zurn, Steve Wilkinson, and Charlie Dingman will round out the Bulldog team with potential ability and bench strength. Randy Borg sets for a shot. Pat Edwards moves toward the boll on on in-bounds play. VARSITY BASKETBALL AHS OPP 53 41 79 . . . Gering 56 82 . . .Kearney 50 CSC Tournament . 4th 53 .

Although the reserves and freshmen won more than they lost, the varsity came out on the short end. The spikers were hampered by the fact they sported only two veteran seniors on the team. The freshman team, introduced for the first time into the program, did quite well, winning all their matches. Next season should be a productive year, since the spikers will lose only their two seniors and will have four varsity starters returning plus a nucleus of many talented reserves. VOLLEYBALL OPP.

Weightlifting Program Starts Into Second Season Weight lifting at AHS went into its second season with lifting beginning the first of February. Last year the program was introduced into the system by football coach Mike Kennedy as a body building function for footballers. It became a competitive sport with matches held at home as well as away. This year’s team was headed by veteran lifters Jon Schommer, Chip Smith, and Mike Tolstedt who showed promise last year as underclassmen. Among the different kinds of lifts are the curl, bench press, military press, and squats to name a few. The “leg machine" is also used to build up leg muscles vital to football players. Weightlifting proficiency carries over effectively into all phases of the sports program. 43Five Grapplers Earn State Meet Berth Led by junior Chuck Ushio, five Bulldog matmen earned the right to wrestle in the state wrestling meet by finishing in the top three divisions in their weight class at district. Along with Ushio, who was the only Alliance individual winner, Dennis Girard, Tom Novotny, Greg Novicki, and Jim Colwell went to state. VARSITY WRESTLING AHS OPP 34 .... 18 28 . .

The squad headed by high jumping junior Joan Sibbitt entered two invitationals with spirit and confidence. They finished 13th out of 1 7 teams at Bayard and garnered fourth at Chadron. Under the direction of coaches Chaney and Morris 1 2 AHS boys took their own coaching jobs at the grade schools coaching basketball. Fourth, fifth, and sixth graders were put on teams with each team coached by a student. Stressing fundamentals more than winning, they coached for five weeks. Jerry Nunes was designated the AHS athlete of the year for 1968-1969. Jerry competed in cross country, wrestling and track from his freshman year to his senior year. He ran the two-mile at the state track meet and ran with the harriers at state in his senior year.

This year looked like the unlucky year, but again the Bulldog runners, under the leadership of Coach Morris, made the journey and finished sixth in Class A competition. The team led by sophomore Dennis Girard on varsity and his brother Jack, an eighth grader, on the novice squad again this year produced a fine cross country record. Alliance in the following years will be looking forward to more bright showings as only two team members are graduating.

Packed full of charm and poise, these girls undertook a tedious, but worthwhile, job of boosting the Bulldogs. Backed by an inspired Pep Club, the cheerleaders exemplified support any team would welcome. VARSITY CHEERLEADERS Anita Foster Barb Metz Joan Sibbitt Deb Kimmel Kathie Green Cheerleaders Thrill in Early Victory Proudly brandishing the "Spirit Stick”, AHS Reserve Cheerleaders came home with an early victory. Placing in the top seven of 1 50 groups at Chadron State College Cheerleader Clinic last June 8th, hard work by the reserve cheerleaders paid off. Their pep throughout the year added spark to cheerleading success.

AHS Band Active Throughout Year "Is my uniform on right?" "Did you bring the music?" "Alliance is proud to present the AHS marching band under the direction of Mr. Thomas Bibbey!" Marching season began for the band after several weeks of rehearsing in all types of weather for Band Day in Fort Collins and the half-time performances. The uncertainty metamorphized into music on the concert stage as the band presented many different styles of music from the familiar "Washington Post March" by Sousa, the Korean folk song "Variations" by J. B. Chance to the religious tones of "Jesu Joy of Man’s Desiring" by J. S. Bach. Commencement, District Band Contest and pep rallies kept the band busily "on key." 1970 Majorettes: Joan Nunes, Jill Bignell, and Jacki Hirst. 51Choir — Front Row: Sandra Soto, Shirley Hippe, Jane Grothen, Becky DeFord, Susan Mathews, Jerene Johnston, Wayne Zobel, Thomas Dill, Launy Ringleman.

Choir Officers: Vice-President Connie Kirchner, Secretary-Treasurer Cindy Reitz, President Barb Powell, and Conductor Mr. Bill Neergaard. Choir Serves as Nucleus of Vocal Program Music is an integral part of AHS school life. Choir and Chamber Singers form two of the cornerstones for the music program. Choir kept busy through the year with the District Music Contest, the all school musical, ‘‘Brigadoon,” Sidney Music Contest, and the Christmas and Spring Concerts. The choir presented for a small, but appreciative audience at some of these performances ' The Last Words of David," "Farewell My Love" and “Marne." Membership in Chamber Singers is given to select singers from mixed choir. This talented group performed for service groups such as the Panhandle Area Chamber of Commerce. Several changes have taken place this year. Time was allowed for the Chamber Singers to rehearse during school instead of 7:30 in the morning, and mixed choir membership has increased from 42 to 74. 53Orchestra — Front Row: Jerry Shoop, Brian Grant, Vivian Roebuck, Kevin McAndrew.

Orchestra Director: Mr. John Cundy. Versatility is Trademark of Orchestra With the approach of the yuletide season, the orchestra presented its yearly Christmas Concert. Great versatility was shown by the orchestra with the changing rhythms of “West Side Story,” “Syncopated Clock" and “Christmas Overture." Second semester thoughts and rehearsals turned to the District Music Contest hosted by AHS. Presented at the District Music Contest were "Great Gate of Kiev" by Moussougski and the “March of the Meister Singers." Bringing to a close the series of public performances were the presentations of the Spring Concert and Baccalaureate. The AHS orchestra, aside from being the only orchestra in the Panhandle, received a superior rating at the Sidney District Music Contest. 54Front Row: Debbie Grothen, Janelle Todd, Jane Grothen.

Drawing layouts, planning pictures, writing copy, and proofreading are all time consuming. Journalism principles are learned in class and in “on the job" training. Students can be found scurrying through the halls gathering information and catching the latest news as it makes its way into headlines. To gain new ideas the young journalists attended the State Press Association in Lincoln. All who participated deemed it a very valuable experience. A friendly rivalry between Bulldog editor, Kathee Vallejo, and Spud editor. Rusty Reno, helps to liven up dull moments. Planning never stops for Spud Staff: Francie Bright, Paula Yekel, Mike Lincoln, Rex Peterson, Terry Jardine, Rusty Reno, and Susan Andrick. 56r-i Bulldog Staff Members: Connie Kirchner, Stephanie Greggs, Susi Keebaugh, Steve Wickham, Nancy Rubeck, and Carol Becker take time out for a good laugh. Yearbook sponsor Mrs. Alice Nelson confers with Dave Eskam, Cheryl Vogel, and Cathy Behm.

Spirit runs high at half-time! Pep Club Girls Don New Uniforms "Big Blue’s out to win!" is a familiar chant of the Alliance High Pep Club. Impressive new culottes and vests added zest to the school spirit of AHS. Selling candy was the main money making project of the year. These funds aided in the whirlwind of activities which were sponsored by the club. Pep Club formal proved a success as it portrayed an elaborate old-fashioned Christmas. The dance represented hours of planning and work by untiring Pep Club members. Other activities included sending cheerleaders to clinic, organizing enthusiastic pep rallies, and designing colorful bulletin boards before games. The annual Pep Club banquet led the way into a new year. Emotions rose and tears flowed as the outgoing cheerleaders tapped their 1970-1971 successors. 58A-Club Sponsors Harlem Clowns Blue sweaters accented by a large white "A” signify the lettermen of Alliance High. To be in A-Club a member must have earned a letter in varsity sports in the previous year. Comradery was stimulated among the athletes of the different sports through the various activities. The main activity sponsored by the club included selling refreshments at all home basketball games and wrestling matches. Funds obtained from this were used in sponsoring a Harlem Clowns basketball game and helped in paying for the Athlete-of-the-year award. Excitement touched many during the Homecoming halftime activities as the A-Club crowned the Homecoming queen and royalty. A-Club members Greg Novicki and Mark Hungerford practice up for initiation.

Pep Club Displays Spirited Attitude Snowmen and a giant ski lift highlighted the scene for the winter party hosted by the Junior High Pep Club. The theme "Ski Land" proved very effective, not only for Pep Club members but for the entire seventh through ninth grade student body. Pep Club members displayed the spirited attitude required to back their Bullpups both in victory and defeat. To support the team, the girls sponsored enthusiastic pep rallies, engineered colorfully decorated halls before games, and promoted enthusiasm and spirit. Junior High Cheerleaders — Back: Peg Spencer, Susie Timbers.

Not Shown: Secretary Torild Skovald. Schweinekotelette and Kartofelbrei mit Sossee would just have to be two foods served at the German Club Christmas Banquet! Members entertained their parents at the fun-fest by limiting the conversation to German, and later by presenting a German Skit. Other activities included Family Night, a Snow Party, a Hayride, and Barbecue. They presented an interesting skit at the annual Y-Teen Orpheum. Although the members have found that German can be fun, they also have gained a greater interest in the German language and culture. Membership is open to all who have taken German or who are taking it now. Spanish Club Officers and Sponsor — Seated: Vice-President Sharon Hogihara, Sponsor Mrs. McPeek. Standing: Secretory Diane Abbott, Treasurer Mike Shannon, President Mike Vallejo. Spanish Club Is Open to Spanish Classes El Circulo Espanol! The Spanish Club of Alliance High, sponsored by Mrs. Semilina McPeek, has once again tried to make Spanish both a challenging and fun language. The club is open to all students enrolled in Spanish classes or who have taken at least one year of the language. One of the primary interests of the club this year was the organization of officers and members to provide a social-side to the study of the language. A Spanish Club party headed the agenda of activities. 61Y-Teens Sponsor Hong Kong Orphan A word of thanks from a homeless child in Hong Kong — a smile from an Indian child at Christmas time — are only two of the heartwarming experiences of the Y-Teen membership. Y-Teens sponsor an orphan in Hong Kong with funds from the annual Y-Teen Orpheum. Service projects included a Christmas program for the Alliance Indian children, contributions to the Senior Citizens Center, and cosponsoring the Easter Sunrise Service. Other activities included the traditional Pat-teran, the Mother-Daughter banquet, Cairo installation, and the Senior dinner. Each year the club presents a $1 00 scholarship to a deserving senior Y-Teen. Belonging to Y-Teens helps to deepen a girl's understanding of herself and broadens her sometimes-narrow vision as an American. President Terri Jardine and Vice-President Linda Jones prepare to take gifts to the Telawitha Hall.

During Thanksgiving vacation, five boys participated in the Hi-Y Model Legislature in Lincoln. Senior Ken Holloway was honored by being a committee chairman at the legislature. Fun projects of the club included a skating party, tobogganing, and swimming. Listening to guest speakers and viewing various films proved very beneficial as well as entertaining. In the spring the Hi-Y joined the Y-Teens in sponsoring the annual Easter Sunrise Service. 63FFA Officers and Sponsor: Reporter Roger Bauer, Sentinel Randy Wilkins, Treasurer Bill Henderson, Sponsor Mr. Ken Ware, President Ron Neafus, Vice-President Dan Morrison, and Secretary Jules Ostrander. Snow doesn’t handicap Mr. Ken Ware or Ron Neafus. FFA Receives First Place Awards Blue corduroy jackets signify the FFA members of Alliance High School. Honors were merited by the club as Jules Ostrander won first place in the annual Public Speaking Contest. Dan Morrison was awarded first place in the Area Land Judging Contest. Other activities included a Dad-Lad Pheasant Feed with a special wildlife show, and the Parent-Son banquet. The club also attended the Western Stock show in Denver. FFA is open to all who have enrolled in vocational agriculture and have been selected by club members. The club has helped to develop competent rural and agricultural leadership. 64DEC A ‘Sells' Business Leadership Entering into its second year of existence is DECA, otherwise known as Distributive Education Clubs of America. It is a national organization designed to develop future leaders in marketing and distribution, to provide incentive and recognition for the Distributive Education student, and to build status in careers for marketing and distribution. Selling cloth calendars headed the moneymaking projects this year. Later the club sold candy. The group entertained at a party for the sponsor, Mr. Abbott, who left for National Guard duty during the year. Through club efforts, a skit, “Another Cinderella” was presented at the annual Y-Teen Orpheum. A scholarship was also presented to a deserving senior club member. “Shall wo hide it or sell it?” soys Sponsor Mr. Abbott to President Shar-ren Foltz. DECA Club Officers and Sponsor: Secretary Peggy Mracek, Public Relations Director Sandie Schommer, Sponsor Mr. Bruce Rockey, Treasurer Sandi Callan, Vice-President Connie Rinehart. 65Student Council Hosts Foreign Exchange Student "Oh darn, no apple turnovers left!" is a common cry heard during the first six mods of each day in the Study Center. To support its activities, the Alliance High Student Council sells rolls and milk each morning. Along with the support of the American Field Service, these funds help in sponsoring a foreign exchange student. This year's A.F.S. student, Toby Helgesen from Norway, has made a very worthwhile contribution to the student life. Better understanding between the administration and students was important to the Student Council. President Lee Wigert spent considerable time counseling with advisors and administration discussing the students' welfare. The Council-sponsored Homecoming dance climaxed a week of festivities with music provided by the "Dynamics." “Goofing off” is no different to foreign exchange student, Toby Helgesen, than to Lee Wigert, president of Student Council. 1969-1 970 Student Council - front Row Seated: Vice-President Dave Best, Dan Sanchez, Karen Shannon, Second Row Seated: Don Zum, Nancy Lawrence, Susi Keebough, Tom Andrews, Treasurer Chris Wilkinson.

Second semester rolled around and seniors were not so sure that it was so easy to fulfill all requirements for graduation.

These attributes are all present in the MOST REPRESENTATIVE girl and boy of 1 970, Andrea Abbott and Dave Best. Since school is foremost an educational experience, it is only proper for THE BULLDOG to honor seniors Deb Fulton and Bob Peltz for achieving HIGH SCHOLARSHIP in this graduating class. 83Juniors Conquer Challenging Year Concentration on American Literature and American History coupled with chemistry, advanced algebra and foreign languages constitute, perhaps, one of the most brain-provoking high school years. Although they are tough courses, they are very rewarding. A variety of elective courses also enrich the junior curriculum. The Junior class presented one of the most successful plays in AHS’s history. This year the class of '71 presented the comedy "Harvey." The financial problems were eased greatly because of the success of the play. Another of the numerous money making projects was the 3-day invasion of Gambles. This was a first for any class. Junior Class Officers: Diane Schnell, treasurer; Tom Novotny, president; Rhonda Chadwick, secretary; Don Failor, vice-president.

Steve Vogel Rick Walker John Weisgerbe Steve WickhamSophomores Bridge Transition Gap Timid sophomores entered the North Building imagining difficult subjects and strict teachers . . . wanting to be accepted, but afraid of not belonging. Before the end of their first year in senior high, they became familiar with classroom procedures and felt more comfortable with the upper-classmen. Working with their new friends in clubs, sports, music, and special events, the sophomores gained that all important sense of self-confidence. This largest AHS class, 1 80 strong, carried out money making projects to “Fatten" their treasury for next year. Sponsors were Mrs. Evelyn Ware and Mr. Keith Kyser. Sophomore Class Officers: Pom Hogenson, president; Nancy Lawrence, vice president; Willie Smith, secretary; Scott Lyman, treasurer.

The theme of this gaily decorated festival was “Mod, Mod World.” This lively class is sponsored by Mrs. Vera Briggs and Mr. Jerry Gardener. The class of 73 also has a more serious side. They tasted such first high school courses as algebra, biology, English and cultural geography. As the year went on, these Freshmen became more and more adapted to the future challenge of senior high years.

WESTON CONTRACTING LEARN, LIVE, AND SERVE Through 4-H BOX BUTTE 4-H COUNCIL Acknowledgments The yearbook staff, in an attempt to make this book one of Alliance High’s better yearbooks, has worked for this accomplishment in both scheduled and unscheduled mods. During these mods, continuous dialogue has been used to make the 1 970 Bulldog something more than a mere picture book. Now this dialogue has ceased for the staff and is presented to the reader. This book, in focus, has become a reality. Although we are unable to acknowledge all the people who have helped on annual, we do thank them for their assistance. We would like to mention the following: — Mrs. Alice Nelson for her time, suggestions and devotion to the 1 970 Bulldog. — Mr. Bernard Becker for giving of his valuable time to act as critic. — The administration and faculty for being patient throughout our many interruptions. — The businessmen who have shown their support by taking an interest in one of AHS's many activities. — The Taylor Publishing Company for its many personal services.
