The staff has chosen the theme ‘Sounds of Silence’ for the 1970 SPARTAN 4 Words by Spartan Staff Beginning the year as twenty individuals, we gradually formed a single working unit. Our purpose—to produce the best ’70 Spartan possible, to record the year’s happenings as they were, and to make our year- book intriguing. Taking pictures, planning layouts in a different manner than they have been done before at AHS, we hectically met deadlines, and mailed final pages. As the books are at last handed out, we will feel completely rewarded if the finished product satisfies the AHS student body. This is your Spartan.

Hitchcock finds time to teach two French classes, give student announce- ments and congratulatory remarks, and be principal all in the same day. He is also the AHS athletic director whose duties include setting up athletic schedules for the year and contracting referees. 7 Student Council Promotes Floats ‘Let’s go have some pop!’ is one of the happy sounds around AHS since the student council promoted the pop machine. Other projects the Student Council has backed this year have been homecoming floats, the popcorn machine, and sponsor- ing a concession stand at the home basket- ball games. All in all, it has been a produc- tive year for the AHS Student Council. President Dennis Hockenberry presides at Student Council meetings. The Student Council—sponsored concession stand draws large crowds during the halves and be- tween basketball games.

Speech Builds Confidence as Students Once again declamation was a major activity at AHS with 48 members. Because of the large number of students participating the group was divided into two sections; coaches were Mr. John Burke and Mr. John Jacobs. Our students participate in: home speech contest, district, and state. Many students are called upon to give their speeches for organizations in the area. Our orators brought home first place in the initial Little Eight Activities Conference Speech Contest. Mary Kennedy gives her poetry reading at Ani- ta’s Home Speech Contest.

Wes Ruggles Travels to District Self-discipline, long hours of training, development of strength and endurance are considerations running through an athlete’s mind before he decides upon wrestling as his athletic endeavor. This year’s wres- tling squad lacked members in some weight classes but never enthusiasm. Although they did not have a top record our wrestlers demanded respect throughout the conference. Wes Ruggles—145 lbs., the only senior on the squad represented Anita at the district meet at Alleman. 49 Top: Dennis Wheatley and Wes Ruggles warm up before their match.
