YEAR OF CHANGE Ll T4 6 Student interest high in general election, C-5A Four years from now many high school seniors may be casting valid votes for the President of the United States. Teens could not vote at the polls this year, but were avid workers for the party of their choice anyway. With 40 percent of the student body dependents of Altus Air Force Base personnel, changeover from Strategic Air Command to Military Air Command has added significance, and arrival of first C-5A crews for training in April made the world's largest plane a frequent topic of discussion. Both the elections and new mission for AAFB will bring changes of major degree for school and community. FRIENDLY RIVALS, Jeanne Ann Freeman, left, a young Republican, and Lynnette Stowe, a Democratic Teen, compare campaign materials. Jeanne Ann's senatorial candidate won, and Lynnette's congressional candidate. SPECIAL GUESTS of Col. William Smith, commander of Altus Air Force Base, were COLLAR newspaper and BULLDOG staffers, Jennie Buchanan and Renee McMahan, seniors and Dan lken, iunior, when members of the working press including newspaper, television, radio and magazines, were briefed at unveiling of the eight-ton C-5A simulator in background. i iii' r r ,, .. - , 1... mi? it 1 1 f
