Of the thirty-four graduates, only 10 chose to participate in the informal ceremony. The main reason for the large number was the change from the six to the eight-period day. One of the more unusual happenings this winter was an epidemic of German measles which hit AHS. The measles struck quickly; often students could observe a classmate get- ting the dreaded spots all over his body. Junior Exec. sold direct ories, had pie sales and sponsored movies to raise the money needed for the Prom, Purple Haze. With this money the group Broadway Clique was hired. 2] Hurrying home to change, Cindy Parks and Gary McFarland leave the Prom to continue their evening at the Elks after party. 7 4 | 3 j 4 1 م t‏ Making their way to the dance floor after a break in the music, Amy Johnson takes Jim Moldenhauer’s arm. lona MVP Eo St DOF ہے‎ DS کے‎ Og

Step one. Rest up for the ceremony during senior week. However, lose one turn upon realization that senior “week” is only four days. Step two. Attend the Senior Picnic at the Ames Golf and Country Club. Enjoy swimming, golf, volley ball and food under sunny skies. Throw Dr. Farrar into the pool (take an extra turn.) Step three. Accompany your folks to Bacca- laureate at C. Y. Stephens Auditorium. If your father is a member of the clergy, he helps conduct the service. Step four. Don your cap and gown, and pre- pare for that big moment when you... With expressions of tension, sobriety and amusement, the graduates enter via Pomp and Circumstance.
