OURRJOULU U SUfDES AND PREPARES These boys tear down and rebuild. Mr. Bartholo- mew's automobile mechanic classes learn what makes Students absent from class must secure an admit slip before reenter- ing. Janet Crossland secures her blue slip from the office. Mr. Williams determines if the absence is excusable or unexcusable depend- ing on the reason for being absent. Whether they expect to be busi- ness wizards or homemakers, today's Alton students may study general business, typing, clerical practice, or shorthand. In addition, students learn to use electric typewriters, a ten key adding machine, and a memeograph machine. Shorthand is not the least important subject offered in the A.H.S. curric- ulum. Charlotte Williams uses skills of dictating and transcribing. nS STUDENTS TOWARD A BRIGHTER FUTURE the motor run and what to do if it doesn't. I can't decide what I want to do after I finish high school is a familiar cry Mrs. Hufstedler hears every day. Guidance service is a very essential pan of the curricu- lum. The guidance counselor guides students inthe fields of their interests. For students planning to enter college counseling is a must . Students must have met certain requirements to enter the college of their choice. Carol Garrison and Mrs. Hufstedler examines the permanent record Carol has made in her four years of high school. Carol plans to enter Arkansas State Univer- sity next fall. without words, thought is Frances Kelso and Joan Strain examine the A papers written in English IV class and displayed Mrs. Minich instructs Darlis Martin on the proper pro- cedure of putting in a zipper. Students in the advance clothing class work on more difficult projects of sewing such as suits and formals. 8 Beverly DePriest, student librarian, assists fellow student.

Mrs. Smoot, Librarian, stands by for additional help. impossible,- sms, u unto Jim VanWinkle, a beginning art student, learns the value chart of colors which is essential in all art work. on the bulletin board. Writing is an important phase of the English curriculum. Mr. Wood works with Mary Kay Tucker, Carol Garrison, Janie Newman, Craig special preparations for the Christmas Contata, Night of Miracles. Johnson and Ronnie Jackman in 9 VtXarfONAL OASGES STRESS Mr. Clark is always well pleased with the attrac- tive bulletin boards found scattered about the Alton High School building. This board has a special attrac- tion. The science room is not only a place to study new life, but also a place to grow and discover new life. General science, biology, chemistry and physics will prepare Alton High students to meet the future with a better understanding of the world about them. Driver education courses teach students to control the wheel of a car. Under the training of Marvin Good, students learn fundamentals and acquire their license with better understand- ing of today's world on wheels. The A.H.S. carpentry class of '69 is building the third house under the direction of Mr. Chester Morris. The first, being constructed by the class of '67. Music brings out the hidden talent. What is a better way to start the school day than with music? Students work on contest music, play at basketball games and at local affairs throughout the year. Above all they acquire a better understanding and appreciation for music. Wrestling is something new added to the A.H.S. curriculum this year. Under the instructions of Art and Cecil Gibson the team has made a good showing. M-OnOM: WET� U6, WETWFMG, WE DO, With an ever-increasing ease of transportation and communication, it becomes more and more important for American citizens to know, not only the background of their own country, but also the culture of all countries of the world. Recognizing this need, Mrs. Gohn’s social studies classes are constantly taking strides in the direction of the understanding so necessary for today's universal problems. The beginner typists soon learn to handle their typewriters with ease. James McGuire and Phillip Johnson have mastered the first steps; speed will follow. The objective of physical education classes is to keep in shape for physical fitness. AHS's four PE teachers are on duty seeing that each of the 300 students gets his share. 12 Speech students conquer the fright which changes them to immobile statues when they first try to speak in public. Lynn Alford conquered that fear at last which has made her speak with a great deal of poise. WE ACT, U E UCA E. QOOqooo■ In our industrial arts classes we endeavor to train the hands as well as the mind. Boys learn to make a piece of wood or leather come alive and take form. They also work with small motors and elec- trical appliances. A place for everything and everything in place is the motto for Mr. Bartholomew’s auto mechanic classes. Larry Richardson makes sure that this tool is in its proper place. Doing push ups is one way to stay in shape for physical fitness. Orville Cypret gets his daily exercise. 13 AWS CURRICULU U OFFERS VARIETY BETSY TAKES HER STORY TO STATE Upon receiving an Excellent rating at the district speech festival, Betsy took her short story to the State Festival May 2, where she received a Superior rating. Betsy prepared this story, Mark Twain's The Golden Arm for a class activity to the sixth grade. Seeing that the sixth graders like her story, she decided to enter it in competition. The senior high ensemble provided music to help raise school spirit. The wrestling class is something new - this year for A.H.S. The class includes Gary Potter, Cecil Gib- son, Robert Taylor, Junior Rice, and Winfred Smith. 14____________________________________________________ cotircz I OUR administrators BCHRI DORLAS holme: J.

But, in the student's life, sports mean even more than that; they mean long hours of practice, high hopes, and sometimes the lonely feeling of defeat as well as the thrill of victory. To other students and to teachers, sports mean watching and rooting for good friends and working to show the best the school has to offer.
