What have we done that has made the Class of ’71 so unique? Beginning that first day in the eighth grade when we were so sure of getting lost, to that day when we re- ceived our diplomas, our high school years have been packed with many memories. In the eighth grade we all visited the planetarium at Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The tenth grade took us to Washington to tour the Smithsonian and other historical landmarks. Finally, our junior year pitted Mr. Peak and us against the “wilds” of Jamestown and the splendor of Williamsburg. As you can see, we were a traveling class! Our Senior year began formally when we received those long awaited class rings. So many activities followed! Dianne Hughes was crowned 1970 Football Homecoming Queen and Denis Tweedy was chosen as her King. Invi- tations have been ordered and all await that day in June when we become the newest alumni of Altavista High School. Our athletic powers have been a stable occurrence over the years as well. Beginning in 1968-69 the Altavista Col- onels basketball team went to the State Semi-finals Championship in Charlottesville taking along our own ‘71 classmate David Mason as a first ne player. The following year 1969-70, Dennis Tweedy, Thomas Moon, Robert Mitchell, Vernon Barnard, and Wilson Reynolds made All-District. Our team was undefeated that year. In the year 1970-71, again Dennis Tweedy, Thomas Moon, and Vernon Barnard made All-District. Our team was not only number “1” in the district, but we were regional champs and surely no one will forget the day we trav- elled to Gate City to play the semi-final game in the state series. However, our school life has been more than just a series of football and basketball games. It has been a time of Powe and learning. Learning Dae what’s in a book, ut learning about life. The life we’ll face as young adults in our world of tomorrow. Top: President Dianne Hughes and Vice President Terry Arthur. Bottom: Treasurer Steve Kennedy and Secretary Katherine Franklin.

And Other Creatures From Ihe “Boss’s”’ Corner Altavista High School produced many fine accom- plishments during the 1960’s. The school term 1970-71 begins the new decade of the 70’s and we look forward with anticipation of even greater suc- cesses. We expect the fine traditions of this institu- tion to continue and to lend success to the lives of many young people during this decade. The main purpose of our educational system is to instill in the lives and minds of young people the fundamentals of our culture and to prepare them for worthy lives in our society. This is the culture that has produced the technology to put men on the moon and to bring them back safely. But it is also a culture which has produced city slums, bigotry, and Streets that are unsafe to walk on after dark. American society will have to face up to and deal with many of her social, economic, and _ political problems during the 1970’s. Altavista High School will be a part of this American challenge of the 70’s. Man’s greatest happiness is to be tested beyond What he thought might be his breaking point — and not fail. Out of the great tests of life come self-improvement, the striving for greater achieve- ment. As we meet the challenge of the decade of the 70’s, let us resolve to seek self-improvement and improvement of our society. This is the goal of Al- tavista High School — to produce the kind of young men and women who will be capable of self and social improveme The Establishment Adapts To Our Changing Times Opposite page — Top: Mr. Drumheller concentrates on his paper work.

Olassn@ tia Pat Booth Cindy Britt 114 Kem Brockwell Cynthia Cabler Kathy Barnard Betty Barrett Kay Bennett Robert Boley Loretta Calloway The 70-71 school year has proved prosperous to the Juniors. Our forebearers warn us of the hard year that lies ahead of us. This year proved to be hard, too but we endured the problems through hard work and effort. The year has not been “all work and no play” however. The Juniors saw to it that school life was not always dreary, ration- , ing the time between school work, extracurricular activities and leisure time. 7 Being a Junior is just one less step away from being a Senior. The year 1972 brings us to the final step of our long journey. eee Carl Dalton Larry Daniel Eddie Delappe Bobby Dellinger Leslie Dowdy Paul Dudley Alvin East Steve Elliot Kenneth Ewing Braxton Farmer Dru Farmer Janice Farmer Juniors Look To The Past Jo Coffey Mike Cook Edwin Cothran Carolyn Cox Nancy Cox Paula Cox Mike Craig Linda Crawford Cathy Creasy Sonny Hackworth and Harold Wilson find time during a busy day to “mess around”.

You could find the Sophomores almost anywhere this year: on the football field, the basketball court, the baseball diamond and the track, not failing to mention the cheerleaders who were cheering them on to victory. Occasionally you might find them in class. Miss Phillips’ biology class was one that was frequently attended by most of the Sophomores, where you could find them peering through the lenses of a stereo microscope at some strange organism. Most Sophomores were anxiously awaiting the final year of their physical education and plan- ning for a great year as Juniors. Chuck Alt Ed Anthony Tommy Barbee Charlotte Bates Kay Boling R. A.

They’ve already proven themselves valuable assets in such areas as sports, debate, and club activities.
