ZJxiljuts When the time comes to select a recipient of the Alcova dedication, there is usually a number of people from which to choose. The process of selection this year was no exception, but of all the possibilities, we believe that we elected a very worthy recipient. Other than a classroom teacher, the 1975 dedicatee is a sponsor of many organizations, including a club related to her teaching field. She also helps with many extra-curricular activities. Any time some one asks her for help, this year’s dedicatee is always ready to oblige. Her personality is such an outstanding one that any one who knows her, develops a certain affection for her. Dullness can never be used to describe her classes. Stimulating and creative are the best descriptive adjectives associated with her instruction. People describe her personality as jocular, dynamic and possessing a great sense of humor. For these reasons, the 1915 Alcova is dedicated tc Mrs. Bonnie Hodges

Tears were shed when friends departed, smiles were exhibited by those who experienced the joy of being asked to attend the prom or receiving an A on that very difficult paper. Although the country faced difficult problems, the people at A.C.H.S. kept their chins up and made this year some of the happiest days in their lives. 5
