THECLAQSOF 1967. . . . . . A STEP FORWARD IN TRADITION This was the beginning of a new era at Alpena High. This was our senior year. But how we lived it, and not what we may have called it, made this year, our last at Alpena High, one we shall never forget. Racing excitedly across the football field after winning that all-important game, dancing with a special date at Homecoming, staying up until the wee hours of the morning to finish a term paper, just talking with a friend between classes---all these made this year a memo- rable one. But now, when the games have all been played, when the exams have been graded, when our caps Si gowns have been put away for the last time, we look back and realize that our senior year was more than a series of events, it was a period of awakening. For we began to recognize that although one phase of our lives was coming to a close, another greater phase was just beginning. We shall remember our last year at Alpena High. Our senior year, like each of the 85 years preceeding it at Alpena High, was unique. Now we leave it all behind. We shall be con- tent with a memory, for the future beckons us forward. To find out the favorites of the Class of 1967, the ANAMAKEE conducted a survey among the senior class and gathered the following information: Of those seniors surveyed, SZCXJ planned on some type of further education-college, trade school, nursing school, etc. Over 35M of our graduating boys will enter the ser- vice after graduation. Future occupations include teachers, scientists, State Troopers, Pe ace Corps Volunteers, and even a traveling PhD. Part-time jobs during high school varied from waitresses to grading potatoes. Congestion in the parking lot was proof of the numerous Wildcats who drove to school. Favorite snacks ranged from steak to gar- lic S pickled bologna, but the universal favorite was pop 8-potato chips. The most popular TV show among seniors was The Smothers Brothers , with I Spy coming second. Ed Ames was preferred over newer stars for favorite singer, even the Monkees took 2nd place. Alfie appeared most often as the favorite movie. Most seniors preferred basket- ball Sfootball to other sports. Even though 7-9 hours were spent per we ek on homework, 'most students felt that exams were Unnecessary for students carrying a B average. All seniors agreed that moving into the new school was the most outstanding event ofthe year, many opposed the idea of a closed campus, but were proud to be the first grad- uating class of the new Alpena High School.
