A student photographer catches the scene of the blazing Church after it was transformed into the ap- pearance of an ice castle by the freezing gallons of water thrown upon it. The First Methodist Church stood as a land mark since 1900 until De- cember 22, 1960, when an arsonist set it on fire. 18 Firemen and the Yearbook photographer stayed up through most of the night, the former battling the flames, and the latter recording' their efforts. .si-Aga' I7

Community history touches school family AHSer's are not only spectators on the local scene, they are participants in the endless list of community events. When fire destroyed the First Methodist Church, AHS's auditorium was the site of services for the church congregation. Students and teach- ers both chipped in with time and money to put the United Fund donations over the S500,000 mark. Construction of the Community Hospital and the new AHS gym, plans for urban redevelopment near the high school, and community protest against a single-unit school plan for Madison County were also important events about which students read and talked. Byron L. Stewart, general chairman of the Fair Share United Fund campaign, receives victory kisses from AHS Indianettes during the record-breaking drive in which S515,155 was con- tributed to charity and welfare. Silence surrounds the empty school after the winter blizzard that sent the entire community into a tur- moil and closed school for a day. --...,,,,,m-+...,.,,,,,V,,M -M.. . .mu A crowd of 2,500 braves inclement weather conditions and traffic snarls to argue down school reor- ganization plans for Madison County at a public hearing of the state committee,
