The teenage emotional pendulum swings quickly from sorrow to joy. Pent up emotions from that tragic weekend were quickly released in the whirl of classroom and co-cur-ricular activity. Five cheerleaders led the student body in a wholesome expression of vigor, vim and vitality. It seemed as if these girls were always on the go, planning skits for pep rallies, attending out of town games, practicing cheers, and keeping school spirit alive and effective— in the right channels. Two bits, four bits, six bits, a dollar! All for Alliance, stand up and holler! CHEERLEADERS—Julie Muhm. Deanna Caruthers. Susie Lierlc. Janice Roten. Sherry Mundt.

LATE FALL Powerful Emotions Grip Entire Student Body This classroom scene was no doubt duplicated in schools all over the nation. There was no slamming of locker doors, no hustle-bustle in the halls, no loud, boisterous laughs so characteristic of high school life. Instead, students crowed around radios asking each other if it were really true. This was November 22, 1963, that tragic day when an assassin's bullet took the life of President John F. Kennedy. Students didn't rush into a class and open their books to English, or physics, or even history. They were somehow aware that they were witnessing an important chapter in American history. High school students joined fellow Americans and world citizens in a weekend of grief and sorrow over such infamy. All watched anxiously as the reins of government transferred from John F. Kennedy to Lyndon B. Johnson. 10 The flag at half-mast tells its own story.
