Organizations Every person is a part of some group—the group he lives with, or works with, or spends his free time with. Through the organizations at AHS, stu¬ dents learn to cooperate with others. They learn the importance of working together to get things done, with each person giving and taking a little. This cooperation is necessary in every group one is ever associated with. Each AHS club has a goal—the honoraries recog¬ nize ability, the language clubs learn about for¬ eign cultures, the vocational clubs help students plan their futures, etc. In many cases students can develop their talents in clubs,- and in all cases, if the students really get involved with the club ' s activities, they will have a lot of fun. 27

With pen in hand, Molly Burget is ready to take notes if any important matter should arise in an executive council meeting. This year’s student council was the center of much activ¬ ity and hard work as the governing body at A.H.S. undertook new and challenging tasks. The student council sponsored many social functions throughout the year. It pleased a majority of students by proceeding with Homecoming as had been done in previous years. In December a Christmas dance was held as a new activity to be presented annually. The council also sponsored the Winter Festival activities in January. Working closely with the executive council, the room rep¬ resentatives made changes in the constitution, adopted a new orphan for the student body, and raised money for both the school and community. A first at A.H.S. was a student body debate over the mural on the gym wall. The student-run government was successful in seeing that the wishes of the students as a whole were carried out and that some necessary improvements to the school were made. 29
