AHS Art Dept. Abounds with Students and Talent The Art Department, under the direction of Mr. Larry Mannlein had another very successful year. Higher learning, art appreciation, and self-expression were all stressed through all the phases of the students’ year. The freshmen were taught the importance of basic shapes and the color wheel. The sophomores brushed up on the concepts, along with studying art history, self-expression, and starting drawings, paintings, and pottery. The juniors and seniors further developed their skills with these media, with the seniors going on to oil painting, clay head sculpturing, and independent study. Mitch Muzzey forms a coil pot in his second period class. Kelly Broers works on a coil pot of her own design. Jon Briggs completes a step in metal casting. Mr. Mannlein gives Dan Frazier some ideas for an interesting design for one of his projects.

Y-Teens draws together girls of different experiences and faiths to bring new understandings and deeper relationships for all people. The group opened its doors to all freshmen girls. With this addition, the year was prosperous. The girls participated in community projects, such as Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets to a needy family and collecting money for the Rock and Roll Jamboree. The group recorded stories on cassette tapes to give to the Alliance Day Care Center. Financial contributions were given to the Boys’ Ranch, Goodfellows and the Nebraska Children’s Home. Other activities included Patteran, Pizza Party, World Fellowship Fair, Orpheum, Mother-Daughter Banquet, and Senior Recognition Dinner. The money raised from Orpheum and the World Fellowship Fair was used to sponsor an orphan from India, and donations were divided among the many different community and state services. Approximately the top fifteen girls who earned the most points throughout the year, went on a weekend trip to Colorado in the spring.
