In memory of former language arts teacher. Eula B. Peterson Auditorium hosts various programs and assemblies for the student body. 2 Opening 47 Years And Still Ticking Informing students and community patrons of upcoming events, this bulletin is easily viewed in front of the main building. ALTIIS HIGH SCHOOL Modem architecture is refreshingly enjoyed by students enrolled in classes housed in the science building. Pioneers who chose to settle in southwest Oklahoma had a difficult struggle ahead of them. But with purpose of mind and determination, their hard work turned dreams into realities, hopes into accomplishments. It was that pioneer spirit that drove them to their early success, and it was that spirit on which the foundation for Altus High School was built in 1932. The same Spirit of the Bulldog, 47 years later, still seems to grow daily. The Altus High School campus is located on a 75 acre tract of land and consists of 11 separate buildings, thus creating a college type atmosphere. The main building, finished in 1932, is still being utilized and houses the original school clock started on December 29, 1930. Modern architecture is also apparent on the campus. The dome-shaped cafeteria accomodates approximately 2000 people and is also the center of activity for many school functions. Completed in 1969, the library is one of the most modern facilities of its type in the state of Oklahoma and was originally a part of Altus Junior College, now Western Oklahoma State College. The student at AHS is given the opportunity to choose the curriculum that best fits his needs by being given a choice of 92 varied courses. AHS can also boast that it is the only high school in the state offering 12 vocational courses on the main campus. Location in an agricultural environment has put emphasis on the FFA department. It has consistently been an honor chapter and has also been recognized nationally. (continued on page 4) Located immediately between the Eula B. Peter- son Auditorium and the main building is Clctus B. Street Fieldhousc, which was named in honor of an early principal and coach. Dick Jewell Hall, dedicated to the memory of one of the first AHS band directors, reverberates musical pieces representative of all eras of musi- cal production in music education classes. Opening 3 A student may gain simulated on the job training through ACTV studios, broadcasted to the local people of Altus on Chan- nel 2. The studio is equipped with over $ 100,000 worth of the most elaborate electronic equipment, including a new VCR mini cam- era for ‘on the spot' taping, made possible through the Kerr foundation. The publications department of the high school consists of the weekly printing of the student newspaper, the Bulldog Collar, and the annual printing of the Bulldog yearbook. The personal counseling and environment of Altus High School increases the opportunities to develop academic potential and attain a good academic record. One evidence of the quality of the program is to be seen in the fact that each year several students are ranked in the top 1% nationally on the ACT entrance examination. Following up the Bulldog tradition of excellence is the music department. The Varsity Choir has been chosen the honor choir for the state of Oklahoma repeatedly. “That Altus Band” has consistently won the sweepstakes award at contest and very sel- dom comes home with any rating other than superior. Having produced an abundance of state champions in the past, the Bulldog athletic program has earned an honored reputation. The Bulldogs have assembled one of the finest coaching staffs at the high school level in the state of Oklahoma. The Bulldog teams are consistently inspired by a large, enthusiastic following from (continued on page 6) Beginning drivers in Drivers Ed. courses fell Language labenabled Susan Atkinson to listen to prey to many ego-deflating experiences. other dialects and broaden her vocabulary. Opening Concentration and a steady hand were impor- tant to George Mcdlock, Paul Skidmore, and Marcello Roblcz as they completed a project in woodworking. Lights, camera, action. ACTV-2 was on the air with Mark Shultz and Gayle Manley. Le- ander Thacker and Greg Graves were camera- men. Wiring houses and electrical fixtures can be a shocking experience. Mr. Harkins supervised the wiring technique of Nicky Woodall and David Dudeck. As the evening sun mirrors the path of the streaking jet, the halls of A MS reflect the memories and impressions of each student passing this way. the community of Altus. It is indeed an honor to wear a navy blue and white letter “A” jacket. Plans are now being final- ized for a new million-dollar aquatic center. The new com- plex will include both indoor and outdoor olympic-sized pools. The City of Altus and the Altus School System will join together in the project. There will always be more foundations to be molded be- cause this high school is ex- panding; it is a growing, evolv- ing achievement. There are more diplomas to be awarded, more knowledge to be offered, much accomplishment to be made at Altus High School, the true Bulldog territory, not just a place, but a feeling. The Clifford T. Peterson Cafeteria, home of ihe hungry, is where students lunch out each day. In honor of former superintendent of Altus schools, Clifford T. Peterson Cafeteria af- fords both a lovely and a compatible setting for evening community gatherings as well. 6 Opening Opening 7 8 Student Life Division Spirit . . .

Vidamandir School in India and took courses much the same as are offered here (biology, language, physical education), but there is one strange difference. In India they only have tests every six months, rather than weekly. Nayana thinks the American schools are much harder. In- stead of football, students play volley- ball and a game called Kho-Kho.

Reijo says America is dif- ferent from Rauma because ev- eryone here drives cars and mo- torcycles. In Rauma they ride bi- cycles until they receive a license at the age eighteen. In his country the summer ends in May and the rest of the year it snows. Imagine, snow in August. Dating in Finland begins later than in America. Reijo says the girls here are “beautiful”.

To Mrs. Betty Heffel, travel provides a small window to the world and leaves the sojourner with a greater appreciation of fel- low dwellers on planet earth. i e N (Br.) Homecoming Spirit Week is one that the students look forward to. During this week we can show our spirit and individualism without be- ing labeled insane. Everyone enjoyed the events planned. This year Spirit Week was better than ever. We had class competition in the obstacle course, nerd day, girls’ Volkswagon races, blue and white day, car decorations, spirit chains, hat-sock-t-shirt day, clash day, and hall decorations. At the pep assembly, the candi- dates gave speeches over “Why I Would Like to be AHS Homecom- ing Queen” to an enthusiastic crowd. The points scored during spirit week were: seniors-first with 34, juniors- second with 31, sophomores-third with 15. The climax of the week was the victory over Yukon. A typical Bulldog fan supports students dur- ing Spirit Week. Sock fQk r-a knitted or woven covering for the foot extending above the ankle.

Juniors won the Volkswagon race by a wide margin. Seniors were all show and no go with a technical difficulty and sophomores were typically slow. 18 Spirit Week Helpful parents, Mrs. Moss and Mr. McDonel, lose sleep over spilled coke.

Trivia 25 When giggles and laughs are heard seeping from under the audito- rium doors, you know one of Mr. Maurice King’s or Mr. Larry King’s classes are at it again — performing a pep skit. Ranging in everything from students portraying babies in Pampers to the Newlywed game, the assemblies provide a wide variety of performances and entertainment. Mitch Worrell does his impression of a Pampa harvester during the pep skit given by Mr. Maurice King's first hour speech class. Bedside manners arc practiced by fifth hour sophomore speech class. 26 Pep Skits Pep Skits 27 W f I r i Whether your vehicle is a racer, a putt-putter, or powered by your own endeavors, you are still part of the American enconomy’s fast growing set of ‘wheels!’ You may feel sleek and sure in a custom cor- vette, or wild and crazy on a dare-devil skate- board, but whoever you are or wherever you are, everyone has his own special set of ‘wheels.’ Courageous Karla Jessup tries her luck on three wheels. Sieve Willey has mastered the technique of 'free-wheeling' on four wheels. Wheels 29 Spectacular Performance “A Comedy Tonight characterized to a tee the all school production “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum presented March 5 and 6 at Eula B. Peterson Audito- rium. The cast realized that without the effort of Mr. Kenneth Cox, mu- sic director, and Mr. Maurice King, drama coach, the desired effeci couldn't have been accomplished. Orchestra director Mr. Larry Harris and musicians provided difficult, yet entertaining music to accompany the performance. Mrs. Debbie Thomas, costume coordinator, and Mrs. Anna Jackson, makeup artist, reconstruct- ed the Roman Era and made the characters come to life. Mrs. Geor- gianna Rainwater devoted her skill in perfecting the dances. A funny Thing Happened on the Way to The Forum is a story of Pseudolus, a slave in the home of Senex and Domina. Pseudolus is a personal servant to their son Hero, who is in love with Phila of the House of Lycus. Hysterium is the slave in chief of the house of Senex. Erronious, a befuddled old man is in search of his children stolen in infan- cy by pirates. Captain Miles Glorio- sus comes to claim Philia for his bride, who was sold by Marcus Ly- cus, dealer of the beautiful girl. All these characters and more combine to create a very entertaining produc- tion. Scaled arc Carol Murphy; Kirston F.nglar. Kyle Bralchcr. Cliff Cagle. Sandi Provence. Ken Drake. Rhonda Savsey.

We have been fortunate to have scholars represent us in scholastic meets in all fields. While all of these other activities are essential to the development of well rounded personalities, we should re- member that our first objective at school is to prepare ourselves scho- lastically for the future. The Altus Public School system takes great pride in the students who T.G.I.F. Day(Thank goodness it’s Friday) but for Kelly Rcimcr homework doesn’t stop for the weekend. Open House provides the opportunity for par- ents to really know how their sons or daugh- ters are doing at school. Dr. Foster presents the Outstanding Music Choral Director of Oklahoma award to Mr. Kenneth Cox at the Thanksgiving assembly. KNOWLEDGE put effort and hard work into their studies. These students are the ones who are consistent with their good study habits, which calls for a great deal of self discipline. The result — solid, hard earned A’s, while the rest of us cram for tests and stay up until all hours at night hoping for enough knowledge for the next day’s test. In academics, our school is consid- ered one of the finest in the state. Our teachers and students are to be commended. Like everything else we do at Altus High, we always strive for the top. Jeff Graham takes time out from his studies for a little nourishment. Coach Randall tries to make it to class on time before the last student slides into class. While I realize that reading can prove most enlightening, I am aware that excessive visual exercising can really tire one’s eyes.” 38 Chemis Exploring And Applying Many unique things are capable of taking place in the science depart- ment. Usually, cutting up in class is a ‘no-no,’ but in biology class, cutting up is fine! Dissecting worms and oth- er more primative life forms are only part of the cutting-up the students are allowed to do in class. Many var- ied experiments are done weekly. Also in the science field, it is quite easy to blow your top, especially when students combined different chemicals to form combustion. Learning new equations, laboratory work, and practicing safety tech- niques are only a portion of the knowledge gained in chemistry class. Earth science and physics are also a part of the science department. Tammy Kimbrel brainstorms during a chemistry experiment as Nancy Dantzler looks on. T Mr. Ackerson rescues Chemistry II students Dan- ny McGuire and Kenny Cole from a dilemma. Jeff Graham and Steve Sutton (Doctor Jekyl and Mr. Hyde incognito) search for the freez- ing point depression for paradichlorobenzene. Concentration is essential for John Hunt while he prepares to trap Potassium chlorate in a flask. Chemistry 39 It’s Whats On The Inside That Counts Gary’s Green Thumb Pays Off Have you ever been attacked by a plant? If you have a hobby as unusu- il as Gary Nichols does, you may ist have had an experience such as tis. You see, Gary raises carnivo- ius plants, and this is a hobby that oves to be quite interesting. Gary first became interested in lising plants when he was in Okla- oma City visiting a nursery. Gary urchased a Venus Flytrap, and it was love at first sight!! From there Gary went on to purchase several other various plants including a Pitcher Plant, a Sundew, and a But- ter wort. The Pitcher plant feeds mainly on flies; it drowns its prey in a pitch- er of digestive juices. The Sundew, unlike the Pitcher Plant, has end ten- tacles that are relatively sticky; when the prey lands on these, they become trapped; the Butterwort plant is simi- lar to this also. These plants require very little at- tention. Gary keeps them in an aquarium. He only has to lift the lid occasionally to allow them to air out. 40 Biology Micky Shriver, Zack Howard, Tom Wilkes and Jeff Davidson all agree that this is not the easiest way to take a test; but then, this is not the easiest test to take. Dr. Liu, Pathologist at Jackson County Me- morial Hospital, addressed the Biology I stu- dents. Biology 41 This is one teacher one can’t talk back to. Facts and figures boggle the minds of these young mathematicians in Mr. Martin’s alge- bra class. Being brainwashed by algebraic theorems arc Barbara Walstad. Rhonda Sassc. Jamie Sears, Debbie Bailey, and Jean Yu. Poly Who? Take the sum of a finite number of terms each composed of a positive power of a variable multiplied by a constant and do whatever you deem necessary with it. Everybody knows that one plus one doesn’t make three, nor does one minus one equal two; however, not everyone has a working vocabulary of polynomials, matrixes, radicals, and hypotenuse. These are expres- sions that soon become familiar to students in their algebra, trigonom- etry, or gemoetry classes. Since some form of mathematical equation directly touches the daily life of everyone, even outside the classroom realm, every student would be wise to enlighten himself in every phase of mathematics possible. Each year outstanding math stu- dents participate in the National Math Exam, SWIM, and various other tests at state colleges and uni- versities. AHS students have consis- tently scored in the top 20% of the state’s high schools on the National Math Exam. 42 Mathematics Julie Sets Sights On Pre-med Trying to solve the many myster- ies of medicine through research is something that Julie Gregg, a senior, finds fascinating as well as challeng- ing. Julie has always been interested in various fields of science, particularly biology. She attended the S.W.I.M. at Weatherford for three years. She also attended the N.S.F. program at s.w.o.s.u. This past summer Julie attended the University of Iowa where she did research in the area of transplant technology. She was chosen as one of 25 people from all over the country to participate in this college course. which was sponsored by the Nation- al Science Foundation. She was es- pecially honored in that she was the only student chosen from Oklahoma. At the university she took courses in psychology, biochemistry, biostatics, and care of laboratory animals. She received eight hours of college credit for these courses. Her research pro- gram involved the study of rejection and how it is affected by the admin- istration of blood transfusions. This experience will be beneficial to Julie because she plans to attend the University of Oklahoma to major in premedicine. Mike Schumacher and Kevin Rovell could be comparing T-shirts .or math homework. Trying to delay class time, these students delay Mrs. Vaughan from her classroom duties. Academics 43 Two heads are better than one as Ronnie Wil- son and Chuck Mackin work together. Making sure that everything runs smoothly. Ray Vineyard gives Glenn Hill some instruc- tions on blocks. Combining efforts to put a camshaft into place arc Dave Singleton. Ronnie Sadler, and Steve McKeaver. Mechanics must know the in’s and out's of cars, as well as what is underneath. 44 Auto Mechanics t- Kevin McGee and Johnny Barrera combine their skills at cabinet making. Carpentry students start from the bottom and build upward as they construct a house. Carpentry students of Mr. Robert Killebrew include Paul Lopez, Leon Scalf, Raymond Long, Kenneth Gambill, Cary Vancleavc. Da- vid Rochelle, Troy Roberson, and Phil Roc. Tricks Of The Trade Being a 'grease monkey’ is more than just monkeying around with en- gines. It also requires a special know how, especially if you are in Mr. Ray Vineyard’s auto mechanics class. Students turn their class into an ac- tual auto repair shop as people bring their ailing cars to them for repair. Aside from the physical aspect of auto repair, they must work just as hard mentally when they prepare for the Plymouth Trouble Shooting Contest. Altus has participated in the state competition all but one year. Another vocation that requires alot of skill is carpentry, which in- cludes everything from building cabinets to building houses. Sixteen houses have been completed and put on the market for sale since the class was developed. Carpentry 45 History And Art Color Our Heritage ‘War of 1812, Gettysburg Ad- dress, The Civil War, Abe Lincoln, Slavery, Spanish and American War, George Washington’ . .. These events and people have al- tered the course of America and are relevant to our lives today. The history students are learning about these events and are also studying supreme court cases that have changed the history of the United States. We must not forget that art is part of our history also. Talents at Altus High School are exhibited and developed in our art classes. Mr. Dalton rewards the har- dest working and most creative stu- dent by presenting artist of the week awards. When the school has special events and needs a professional-like touch, the art class always lends a hand to carry it off with great suc- cess. Jeff Davidson and Rhonda Sasse receive letters of commendation for the PSAT test. Mr. King and Mr. Lamar are pleased once again as Altus stu- dents receive such high honors. History classes give the annual hamburger supper to raise money for the Jr.-Sr. Banquet. Julie Da- vidson and David Romines do their fair share in providing the cokes. Mr. King gets a likely story from Tammy Le- mieux. ( 46 Social Studies, Art, Etc. « «4)8 Espi Davis and Terry Cash arc two of the many art students presented with the artist of the week awards. Mike LaFcmcy brought authentic flags from World War II to American history class. They were the German Nazi flag and the American Second Division flag. Social Studies, Art, Etc. 47 Early Readiness May Net Early Jobs S Typing furiously on your typing les- son only to find that you forgot to put paper in and making strange symbols in shorthand are just a few of the frustra- tions you may encounter if you are en- rolled in a business course. The business department serves two purposes: it prepares students for col- lege entrance into the business fields and also teaches skills which will pro- vide the basis for an immediate voca- tion upon high school graduation. Typewriting II and Shorthand II are courses that should be taken by stu- dents who plan to enter the business fields after graduation. In Typing II, the best students type at least sixty gross words per minute with ninety-five percent accuracy. In Shorthand II stu- dents are expected to be able to take dictation at the rate of one hundred words per minute for three minutes. Also offered in the business depart- ment is V.O.E. or Vocational Office Education. In this course, students learn correct telephone etiquette, filing, use of copying machines, transcribers, and calculators. Students participate in a work-study program with employers in the community for the last six weeks of class. Business classes are practical courses which are beneficial to everyone at some time in their lives, whether they operate their own business or serve as an employee of a large corporation. t Ft.

A combined number of ten Span- ish classes are available which in- clude customs, language and a little geography of Spain. If the French Riveria or Canada is your destiny, you can get off to a good start with French cuisine and the prevailing proud language of France. Getting closer to home, we finally come to English. Ms. Irene Jones is pioneer- ing a new English course for seniors. The enriched course’s primary pur- pose is to increase reading speed and comprehension with the use of read- ing machines and programmed learning. It also increases vocabulary and involves compositions and exten- sive research. Tom Sawyer and Becky Thatcher are por- trayed by Charlotte Madison and Lyn Vas- sella as they review “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn for their class.

Mitch Worrell breaks out in a sweat as Bud Lee’s demonstration speech goes up in smoke. Zack Howard and Angie Goode proudly accept their awards after placing fourth and second, re- spectively, in the “Voice of Democracy” speech contest. Language Arts SI Students Perfect Skills With Practice A lot of students complain about classes being a real drag. However, drivers education is the only class where you want to drag. The stu- dents learn all the general driving and safety rules. Actual driving ex- perience and simulator operation help the students increase their skills. If you complete the require- ments of this class, you are eligible to receive your permit. As the guys try to impress the girls with their new hot rod, the girls try to impress the guys with their cook- ing and sewing ability. Of course, if you can’t sew or cook, home eco- nomics class is ready to save the day! You also learn about hygiene, con- sumer buying, house appliances, and refinishing furniture. With the new wardrobe, tasty gourmet dishes, and driving fatigue, you may need to get rid of some flab- by muscles by strenuously exercising in physical education class. A variety of sports, arobics, stretches and tum- bling are the order of the day.

Long tedious hours on the practice field and in the classroom help perfect marching routines and musical presentations. “Light My Fire,” “Star Wars,” “Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” “Conquistador,” and “Championship” are among the numbers heard during football half- time performances. One of the major responsibilities of the band is provid- ing instrumental background music and theme songs for the All-School Production. 2,769 jars of popcorn were sold in an effort to earn money for their spring trip where they compete with other high school bands.

Composed of 35 male and 26 fe- male vocalists, Varsity Choir mem- bers are selected as a result of audi- tions which include ear training, sight reading, voice and tone quality. The annual fruit drive nets funds used for scholarships and contest fees. The members also hosted a Christmas dinner for their parents and enjoyed occasional parties. Wearing new uniforms, the choir sings for many different civic organi- zations as well as school functions.

Broadcasters 69 Stand By On One, Camera Ready, Nine years of planning and im- proving have built a strong educa- tional television program for the Altus Public Schools. Altus Cable Television (ACTV) is completing its ninth year of broadcasting. It is de- signed to train students for ca- reers in the mass media and is presently the only one of its kind in the state. Newscasts, interviews, film and interesting features are viewed on channel two each morning at 8:45 and again at 9:45. Junior and sen- ior students learn to operate the complicated television equipment and to respect it in their treatment of it. Students alternate individual responsibilities as director, news- caster, weather reporter, sports reporter, and in the presentation of menus for the individual schools. Camera persons must learn to follow direc- tions and make quick adjustments. Nancy Dantzler is at the controls. Varsity television staff members show new members the numerous controls necessary for a telecast to go on the air. Cindy Smith is at the multiplexer, Connie Clark is adjusting the Bell and Howell, Janet Privett is at the direc- tor's position, and Kenna Metcalf adjusts the sound.

Mrs. Ruth Ferris ably assists the television crew with many years of valuable expertise in the world of mass media. 70 TV. Start The Music, You’re On!

SMILE, you’re on Candid ACTV!’ Veteran Mini-cam specialist, Jim Jones has had tapes that he made used in both Oklahoma City and Washington, D.C. Keep The Presses Rolling Layouts, copy, pictures and most of all, deadlines, were all a big part of the lives of the Yearbook and Col- lar staffs. Although it may have seemed sim- ple to publish the Collar each week, or even easier to get a yearbook ready in seven months, it wasn’t as elementary as one might think. Yearbook editor, Pam Teigen, and Collar editor, Dana Wiginton, kept things running smoothly as they found something for everyone to do, which considering the staffs’ hectic schedules was not hard. Both the Collar and Yearbook staffs devoted many hours of hard work so that your years at Altus High School could be captured in pictures and words. Dana Wiginton, editor of the Bulldog Collar, escapes the perils of eye fatigue caused by proofreading temporarily. A full working knowledge of yearbook pro- duction is essential for editor Pam Teigen as final copy and lay-out design has to clear her desk before submission. Photography involves many aspects and publi- cations photographers work diligently to per- fect their skills, both with the cameras and in developing film into finished prints. They are Charles Caswell, Renee Keenum. Tracy Da vis, Terri Hurley, John Nebling, Jimmy Firth and Angie Goode. 72 Publications Working together is a must in producing an outstanding high school paper such as the Bulldog Collar. 7 V Knowledge of the darkroom is essential to pho- tographer Angie Goode.

Writing stories, designing layouts and meeting dead- lines all became a part of the staff members’ daily routine. The Altus Times Democrat has graciously supported the Bulldog Collar in an advisory capacity plus furnishing the paper and printing process for the publication. Despite the sweat, frustrations and time involved in printing the news weekly, the staff felt it to be benefi- cial because it gave them insight into possible future careers in the mass- media as well as keeping the student body informed.

The staff soon be- came aware of the many problems that hinder the best laid plans when at- tempting a major publication such as the yearbook. The members of the staff compiled the daily happenings around the school into a retrospective, or backward, glance into time. It was a new exper- ience for 21 of the 26 member staff, but the five veterans ably assisted with their experience and knowledge.

T L Le Club est “Loin des Ye” ‘French Club is far out’ according to students involved in the club. From Christmas caroling in Decem- ber to the end of the year party in May, various French customs are tried, practiced, and enjoyed. A progressional dinner highlight- ed the November meeting as a vari- ety of French dishes were prepared by the students and brought to the home of sponsor Mrs. Don Camp- bell. Learning a different language is always illuminating, but to be able to become familiar with lifestyles and attitudes makes the foreign country come alive as well as making the lan- guage more impressionable. The members select their queen from the second year students in French II. The attendents are then chosen from the girls in all French classes. The royalty is voted on by the entire French Club. 90 French Club Serving as French Club officers arc: Renee Keenum (treasurer). Terry Hurley (secretary). Pam Teigen (president).

Farming Feels Good . . . and most of the 73 FFA mem- bers are feeling good about agricul- ture and ranching. Every member is required to have a supervised occupational project, such as a lamb, calf, or pig. Selected members travel to Kan- sas City for the National FFA con- vention to hear speeches by distin- guished agricultural personnel; other members attended livestock shows. Funds are raised through the slave sale, which netted $6,000, and the sausage drive, which earned $3500. Officers are FRONT ROW: Mr. Larry McLaughlin (sponsor). Dale Roberts (vice-presi- dent).

Deciding on future career goals, de- veloping leadership in each of the separate areas, and preparing for the working world are the main concerns of club members. VICA: Preparation For The Future VICA 97 Animal — Mammal Behaviors Questionable Psychology is growing and devel- oping into a full-fledged experimen- tal science and is taking its place beside the natural sciences. While its approach is as broad as possible, psy- chology emphasizes the fact that hu- man behavior is a legitimate subject for specific study. Psychology students participate in many different activities, one of which includes the survival course which is designed to see how well students can survive under certain conditions. Many who participate in this experiment assume the role of having either a broken leg, a broken arm, or being blind. Other projects deal with the cor- rect way to study, ways of dealing with frustration, and attempts in un- raveling logic problems. Students also explore human emo- tions, reactions to various human ex- periences, stress, relaxation, anger, etc. with the aid of such scientific instruments as the Galventic Skin Response (GSR), EEG, and Alpha Brain Wave. 98 Psychology Psychology II Club members are FRONT ROW: Debbie Dockum, Beverly Capps, Ka- ren Bratcher, Barbara Walston, Karen Sec- berger, Janet Phelps.

Expand ? Crayons To Acrylics Comprised of members from Art I, II, and III classes, the Art Club members steadily worked with their sponsor Mr. Doug Dalton to affect a most successful year. They were right in “the heat of things” while selling hotdogs and chili dogs by the pound. Their famous creation was the walloping open-faced-double- doggie. The benefits from these “dogs” lead to many projects. Among these projects are a trip to Dallas and a visit to the elegant Ola Padreda, an exotic arts and crafts mall. The Ola Padreda is an old warehouse divided into shops and display rooms where gifted artists demonstrate their crafts. In the spring the Art Club spon- sors the all school art show where many awards are given. Creative art- ists from kindergarden age to senior high school may enter. Worthwhile humane contributions are the goals of the club as they don- ate to the Salvation Army and to local needy families during the giv- ing season of Christmas. Opportuni- ties seem unlimited as they are privi- ledged to attend workshops pertain- ing to different fields of arts and crafts. David Fierro, Jamie Rodgers.

Have you ever wondered just who plans all those neat dances and spirit weeks throughout the school year? These events come about thanks to the many hours of concentrated ef- fort on the part of the Student Coun- cil. The Student Council is comprised of four representatives from each class plus the president of each class. The remaining class officers, such as vice-president, secretary, and trea- surer, compose the advisory board of the Council. The goal of the Council is to get more people involved in the school events during the year. They encour- age people to attend their meetings and voice their opinions on school matters. By doing this, they feel it produces a more harmonious atmo- sphere among the student body. Student Council members arc FRONT ROW: June Sample. Pam Teigen. Michelle Connell, Debbie English.

If so, then you are one of the many Altus High School girls who supported the Bull- dogs throughout the year. The “Peppers”, under the direc- tion of Mrs. Linda Marler and Mrs. Linda Wiginton, do a fantastic job of boosting school spirit and pride. Athletes were haunted throughout the year by “phantom phans” who slipped all sorts of goodies into their lockers. The Peppers do a top-notch, true- blue job in keeping up the spirit of the student body. Kenna Metcalf, otherwise known as Miss Bulldog, boosts spirit for all sports.

These nine girls, after countless hours of hard work, accompanied with sweat and aching muscles, brought home from summer cheer- leading clinic at OU the highest awards any squad from Altus has ever attained. The group was award- ed all superior ribbons, the spirit stick, and was nominated for the “Award of Excellence,” along with seven of the finest squads from Okla- homa and three surrounding states. Traveling over 4000 miles sup- porting the Bulldog teams on the road kept the cheerleaders quite busy backing the Bulldogs. They helped the “Spirit of the Bulldog” reach an ultimate high and really kept the fans “GOING BA- NANAS!” Cheerleaders 109 Steppin ’ Smilin ’ Shinin ’ The curtain opens and there they are, the Spirit Steppers, all curled, twirled, glossed and tossed, with dazzling smiles and every hair perfectly in place, ready to dance their way into your hearts! Choreographer Mrs. Georgeana Rainwater contributes many new ideas and dance styles so the Steppers can perform various jazz dances as well as the original tap dances. As every Spirit Stepper knows, it takes more than a smile and pretty legs to be a Stepper; it takes many hours perfecting these dances to give their au- diences their finest performance possi- ble.

Salt ana Pepper dancers really shake it up with their ‘out-a-sighf disco dances. Under the direction of Glenda O’Rear, the dancers them- selves make up many of the routines they perform. Their costumes, which are the traditional Bulldog blue and white, have that boogie-down look in a soft shiny satin. The disco dances performed by the Salt and Peppers really add life to the assembles and basketball games throughout the year. KNEELING: Bob Stanley, Jimmy Rogers.

Team members this year are Judy Sprague, Robin Hutchinson, Connie Bryce, Robin Darnell, Mark O’Hal- loran, Kathey Alewine, Kayna Koh- ler, Jane Haferland, and Teresa Martin. In addition to all being out- standing tumblers and trampolinists, each member of the team competes in all Olympic events. Girls: vault, uneven bars, balance beam, and floor exercise. Boys: vault, horizon- tal bar, parallel bars, still rings, pom- mel horse, and floor exercise. Kayna Kohler, senior gymnast, displays her talent on the uneven bars. Kayna not only has received the most Outstanding Gymnast Award six years in a row. but is a certified state U.S.G.F. Class III judge and coach of the Altus Twisters Team. Stretching Out Perfecting, Competing Gymnastics is a rapidly growing sport in the Altus school system. Each year more and more high school students are enrolling. Some join because they find gymnastics a challenging sport and want to excel; others join for the opportunity to tone and strengthen muscles and for the mere enjoyment of the sport. Al- tus is fortunate to have the finest facilities and equipment in the state of Oklahoma. Team members execute their flexibility in a ‘swan’ pose. 114 Gymnastics Sophomore Murk O’Halloran is shown here executing a handstand that is a part of his optional floor exercise. Mark, in addition to being an outstanding all-around gymnast, is an expert trampolinist. Robin Darnell and Judy Sprague make it look easy.

Gymnastics 115 Enthusiastic — Ready For Action Under new head coach Rick Moss and assistant coach Craig Cummins, the Lady Bulldogs faced tough com- petitors this season. Win or lose, the Lady Bulldogs never gave up. Their goal was to start every game with poise, determination and confidence. How much of each of these they ex- ecuted throughout the game deter- mined victory or defeat. Their long hard practices paid off when they placed second in the Base of the Wichita’s and the Western Okla. Girls’ tournaments.

Discipline And Dependability The wrestling team has what you might call a ‘Cinderella-story’. They are young but by no means inexperi- enced. Forty-five men all competing for places on the team make the final outcome outstanding. Wrestling is a sport that takes alot of self discipline, skill, fluid motion, and strategy. It is a sport totally dif- ferent from others, for an individual must be dedicated and dependent upon himself. All individual efforts then combine to form a victorious team.

What is it like to be the number one ranked basketball team in the state of Oklahoma? The varsity squad found out that the many hours of pain and practice are well worth the time. The competition was stiff, but only once did they drop from the number one position in Class 4A. Highlighting the season was the trip to the Hobbs Holiday Tourna- ment. The Bulldogs barely missed the sweet taste of victory losing in the finals to Hobbs. The Bulldogs, never throwing in the towel, came back later in the season to defeat nationally renowned Hobbs twice on their home court.

Opponents and fans throughout the year commended the team on their explosive offense and hard-hit- ting defense.

The players making the All-District team were: Steve McKeaver, Clea- tus McDonel, Kenny Fancher, Tom- my Flemons, Ray Conway, Gregg Buck, Randy Reber, Jeff Hart, and Todd Tims. Those making the All- Area team were: Tommy Flemons, Randy Reber, and Jeff Hart. Steve McKeaver made All-State and All- American teams. Even though they were hampered by injuries and were defeated in the first round of the 4-A playoffs and their record, (6-5), had its flaws, they finished the season as a very talented team.

Janet and her family en- joyed this ‘dream' vacation in early September. While flying on the 747, Janet watched the movie “Grease”. In Ha- waii, she saw where the opening scene of “Gilligan's Island” is filmed. A cruise through Pearl Harbor and watching Polynesian belly dancers proved an enjoyable experience.

For some it means the end at last, the final stretch; for others, it’s the leav- ing behind of a part of their lives they’d rather hold onto forever. Many memories will remain in the minds of the seniors, like the senior girls running away with third place in the Spirit Week volkswagon race, or the seniors fantastic float accord- ingly titled “The Senior Express.” Senior year is gone now, but the memories of the good times, as well as the bad, will linger forever in the seniors’ hearts and minds as they take their last walk down the hall, walk through the doors of Altus High School, and open new doors in the world.

Karen’s parents and sister came to Altus on June 7, 1978, but Karen didn’t arrive until August 20. Why, because she spent her summer with Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, and all the rest of the Walt Disney World in Florida. “Tourists are not tourists; they are guests” was the Dis- ney World motto, and from June 20 to August 20, for 40 hours a week, Karen waited on many “guests”. She worked on Main Street in one of the sou- venir shops. Karen arrived in Altus just two days before school was to start so she didn’t really know anyone. However, she soon came to know and love AHS. 164 Seniors Shirley Griffin Scon Grummons Fred Gomcringer Sandi Guthrie Shenetta Hall Tim Hall Ramona Haning Curl Harner Tracey Harrington Deborah Harris Jeff Hart Karon Hembree Danny Hernandez Teresa Hicks Roger Hinton Barry Holt Kelley Hornbakc Kelly Horne Nancy Howell Jeri Howland Charles Huddleston Greg Huddleston Robert Hudson Marilyn Huff Tony Hughen Joe Hukill John Hunt Craig Hunter Neomi Jefferson Jeff Jett Grace Jimenez Betty Johnson Richard Johnson David Jones Jim Jones Karen Jones Rhoda Jones Steve Jones Tim Jones Honey Kastncr Laural Keck Nick Keene Tammy Kimbrcl Richard Klukas Barry Knox Marshall Knox Kayna Kohler Rhonda Koukal Tony Kowalcski LeAnn Kuykendall Ronald Ladd Julie Laskowski Bud Lee Robert Lemieux Robert Lerncr Clay Lewis Tom Keeps Going Around In Circles Racing, a sport that is be- coming very popular, is espe- cially interesting to Tom Cald- well.

During the day to day routine of school, many of us don’t realize the interest- ing lives some of our co-stu- dents lead. This is true in the case of one of our senior students, Brian Wolfe. Brian, having already completed ground school and obtained the necessary amount of hours needed, has already received his pri- vate pilot’s license. Brian stated that flying requires alot of determina- tion and skill if one wishes to be successful in this field. Flying isn’t all fun and games though; there are cer- tain emergency procedures to become acquainted with in case they are needed. Bri- an was forced once to make an emergency landing in a field when he was faced with engine failure. Brian intends to further his education in flying by going to the Air Force Academy and possibly ob- taining a master’s degree in aeronautical engineering.

Administra tors Everyday presents a new challenge in the life of Mr. Howard King as he enters the school to encounter the smiles and grimaces of approximately 1200 students. Mr. King has the desire and ability to inspire young people to set and strive to achieve their high- est goals. As principal for only two years, Mr. King has already shown us that our school is not only successful in the field of athletics, but that we are a highly accredited academic school as well. As one of the Bulldogs' most faithful sup- porters, Mr. King attends nearly all sporting events and other school activities and encour- ages students to do the same. Mr. King's job entails much more than just being a principal; he is a sponsor for the Student Council and helps them plan dates and events for all their activities during the year. Being a principal is more than sitting be- hind a desk labeled ‘Principal' as Mr. King is showing us this year by being our friend. Assisting Mr. King throughout the day is Mrs. Bobbie Spruiell, his secretary. '-ZM Totally involved. Mr. King attends all school activi- ties. Encourage Students 184 Office Being assistant principal does not necessarily mean just assisting the principal. Mr. Bob Wenk helps stu- dents as well as the faculty. Probably few people know that Mr. Wenk was the very first wrestling coach at Al- tus High School. During his 15 years here, five were spent coaching, eight included being athletic director, and for the last two years he has been assistant principal. Mr. Wenk also assists the senior class by being their sponsor. Flat Tires, running out of gas, and missing the bus are just a few of the many brillant excuses heard by Mike Copeland, attendance director. Sit- ting behind a desk overflowing with the too-well-known pink and blue slips, Mr. Copeland keeps a daily re- cord of attendance of students at Al- tus High. In this capacity, Mr. Cope- land has probably heard every stu- dent’s reason for being late or absent at least once. Being in contact with students all day makes each face rel- atively familiar to him.

In 1971 she lifeguarded and taught swimming lessons fulltime. She also received her Water Safety Instructor Authorization and taught swimming at college for the Fall of ’71 and ’72. In the summer of 1976 she took a WSI Refresher course at Altus Air Force Base, which includ- ed cardiopulmonary. She has taught both Junior and Senior Basic Water Safety. This past summer she taught two beginning swimming courses at WOSC. 186 Faculty Coach Keeps Huddle Alive Coach Dave Brown has helped sponsor the Fellowship of Christian Athletes for the past six years. Other high school faculty sponsors are Jack Diltz, Bill Dalke, Linda Wiginton, and Leonard Scalf. The sponsors present lessons and then the students break into small huddle groups where they may dis- cuss the lesson, hear prayer requests, or simply have a sharing time of hap- py experiences or seek advice in dealing with personal problems. Once an organization for male athletes only, F.C.A. is now accessi- ble to any male or female. It is non- denominational and approximately forty students participate regularly.

What financial assistance and schol- arships are available to college fresh- men? These are familiar inquiries that high school counselors antici- pate, and they keep informed about these subjects. Arranging schedules, checking transcripts for graduation, and making students aware of var- ious fields in which they might be best suited or interested reflect the importance of professional guidance in personal goal-setting and prelimi- nary decision making. Aside from the scholastic aspect is an even more intimate relationship with the individual student. A confi- dential listener who can offer an un- biased suggestion for bettering peer, student-teacher, or even family situ- ations is a grave responsibility of the counselor. Our guidance counselors have proven their desire to make all of the students' high school careers as painless as possible. Mr. J. D. Johnson can suggest possible college courses of study from evaluation of scholastic testing. 190 Counselors Mrs. Jordan realizes a whole new world can Mrs. Nucci enjoys working for her alma mat- bc discovered through reading. cr. Discovering New Worlds A ready source of knowledge is nestled in a quiet atmosphere con- ducive to reading, studying, or re- searching. Located within a short walking distance for speech, drama, debate, and English classes, the li- brary affords beneficial reading ma- terials for practically every assign- ment. History classes often gather here as well for valuable reference information. Ready to assist students in locat- ing desired reading materials are Mrs. Kathryn Jordan, librarian, and Mrs. Anna Nucci, assistant clerical librarian. Mrs. Jordan has served in this capacity for ten years and Mrs. Nucci has been affiliated with the library for eight years. Both ladies have a special interest in this school and the students as they are both alumni. Library aides replace books on the shelves and cards to the proper files for instant access. Some of the library aides arc Randy Roland, Jackie Blazek, Earie Riley, Delores Domin- guez, Janice White, and Joy Keeney.

Some succeed and some fail, but most find a new ray of hope for the future. While increased inflation challenges people everywhere. Altus High continues to grow in size, wisdom, and number. Her students face the future with boldness. As spring brings graduation for the Senior Bulldogs, they set out to all parts of the world to brighten God’s light in every phase of life. The title ‘Senior’ puts before us the question-to college or not? We stand on a threshold before a fading ending and before an uncertain tomorrow. To live our lives, to study, to work, to face a new world is our challenge. Our education has not ended, merely started again. We will always feel like a part of this Bulldog territory, but can no longer call this place our own. It’s only a feeling we shall use to inspire us onward into the future to greater horizons and broader perspectives. 202 Closing Closing 203 COLOPHON The 1979 Bulldog was pub- lished by the Altus High School yearbook class and printed by the American Yearbook Company, Topeka, Kansas.
