PHYSICAL GROWTH People-people-people! A walk through the halls was a dangerous undertaking this year as student enroll- ment soared to an all-time high of 700-with eighth graders being the most populous class. Two additional trailers were added to provide much needed classroom space and the long-needed building addition was finally begun. 23

Class Of ’70 History The Class of ’70 made a name for itself when in the fall of 65 we headed for Chapel Hill. Everyone enjoyed the speaker, especially when he expressed his desire to stop being pelted by candy wrappers. Our freshman year was one of much hard work. We first realized that Mrs. Key was not the harsh teacher that people dreaded, but one who not only did her job well, but made it fun to learn. . As Sophomores we were lucky enough to visit our nation’s capital. Seeing the museums and other land- marks were only secondary to the train ride. The soldiers onboard treated the girls to their charm and the boys to their beer. Juniors . . . Beth Burgess was our president for the third year. We began to swing and change. The teachers worried about our failing intelligence and we worried about .. . Five of our classmates—Leonard Brown, Benny Crawford, Bobby Harris, Gary An- drews, and Bobby Shelton—were members of the State Runner-up bas- ketball team. We shared their excite- ment and honor. As Seniors we couldn't ask for better times. Our senior-led football team dominated the district opponents en- route to a 10-0-0 season. Our senior- faculty basketball game proved to be the predictable fiasco with the unpre- dictable ending as the faculty domi- nated the game play. But we won in our own way. Despite its lack of study- ing our class has completed a high school education topped by none. Now, we leave A.H.S. to face new challenges, and we leave the challenge of A.H.S. to all other classes to follow. We are the last of the old decade (Or are we the first of a new decade?). Nevertheless, in the decade of the sixties we came, we saw, and we con- quered. S.
