EVELYN HARPER Mrs. Harper won the distinction of be- ing named Kansas teacher of the year and also became a Master Teacher. We were all very proud of her and know that both honors were well deserved. PRINCIPAL LEO DENNY The 1966 student body and students of many years back will never forget the fine work of Mr. Denny. He is the kind of man who will always remain warm in the hearts of all students and faculty members. ACTIVITIES DIRECTOR JOHN SMITH Mr. Smith has served the school in three capacities—teacher, basketball coach and activities director. In all he did out- standing work. His pleasant, gentlemanly manner will never be forgotten. 3 Board of Education President of board—Judge Hunn Vice-president—Mrs. Bridges Perhaps no people in a city or town give more of their time and talents to the betterment of their community than members of the Board of Education. Atchison has always taken pride in the men and women who serve in the capacity of educa- tional leaders alongside the school administrators and teachers. The five men and one woman who were elect- ed to guide Atchison schools during a period of expansion, which is being felt throughout the country, are well equipped to handle every situa- tion as it presents itself. They are persons who understand the problems of the world of today and are able to intelligently meet their obliga- tions. Atchison parents have every reason to give heartfelt thanks to every member of the Atchison school board. It is for the interest of their children that these men and women take time out of their active lives to do everything possible to bring higher and higher standards to our schools. As interesting innovations are introduced into the school system, bringing about new and chal- lenging work for students, always remember that it is our dedicated school boards that spend long hours in formulating the plans and looking for- ward to the goals. 2- . _ LOUISE TOSTERUD vcjbO Ka � 1 LYDIA GILKISON JUDGE FRANK HUNN MR. HERMAN FELDMAN DR. WAYNE O. WALLACE MRS. W. D. BRIDGES MR. FRITZ SMITH MR. LOWELL DAGENAIS LEFT: Board of Edu- cation Building. Superintendent of Unified District No. 409, Atchison County, Atchison, Kansas DR. D. W. FRAZER Any thoughtful person who scans in broad perspective and with deep discern- ment the total educational program in this country cannot escape seeing the rela- tionship of the school to people in cities, towns, and open country places. What the school is and what it has done since the beginning of public education in this country has been inextricably related to the wants and needs of people, to their hopes and expectations, to the ideals that give direction to their thoughts and actions and the circumstances in which they live. By their very nature, schools are orientated toward the future. For the most part, they serve young people, young people who look forward to rich, produc- tive, satisfying lives. This is America's promise to its youth. The public schools are committed to serving all young people, the gifted, the average and the less academically talented. All are important. Each has an in- alienable right to do the best he is capable of doing; and to the extent that any- one fails to develop his full potential and to use it for worthwhile purposes, the country is weaker and democracy has fallen short of achieving its high purpose. The schools serve not only individuals as such, but the totality of society as well —society with its ideals, its values, its purposes, its commitments, its institutions, its enterprises, and its governmental processes. The cultural circumstances of today are alive with challenges to the schools. The powerful forces that generate cultural change and lead to these circumstances have meaning only as they affect the lives of individuals, family groups, whole communities and the institutions that serve them. Without innovations, new ap- proaches, and new emphasis in the educational program, the' schools will fall short of achieving the high purposes they are expected to achieve. D. W. Frazer, Ed. D. Superintendent of Schools 5 Mr. Denny Has Faithfully Served AHS the Past Thirty Years — as Principal for Nine. SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL LEO DENNY Mr. Smith has done a fine job as activities director, no small project in a school the size of AHS. He always has a smile and a good word for everyone. Per- haps his greatest attribute is the fact that he is always a gentle- man. Luck in your new job! The offices of these five persons are never idle—from eight to four. If it were possible to put a turnstyle and charge a penny for each person passing through, we could realize a sizable for- tune at the close of the school year. Mr. Denny is re- tiring from his ad- ministrative duties at the close of this school year, but will still be with us as an instructor. We like you, Mr. Denny and are glad you'll still be with us! JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL PRINCIPAL VAN N. HURST Mr. Hurst is well-known for his soft, well-modulated voice. How- ever, he is an excellent discipli- narian as youngsters who have misbehaved will attest. He and Mr. Denny have made a good working team for the advance- ment of Atchison Junior-Senior High school. ACTIVITIES DIRECTOR JOHN SMITH Mrs. Thomas and Mrs. Johnson keep the wheels of the school moving by the hundreds of things that come up each day —outside their regular duties. They can truly be called Our-Girls-Friday—plus Mon- day, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday! SCHOOL TREASURER MRS. ANNIE JOHNSON b SCHOOL SECRETARY MRS. JUSTINE THOMAS The Men and Women of Our Faculty— MRS. LOIS ADAMS SOCIAL STUDIES WILLIAM ALYEA SOCIAL STUDIES have guided us in our ever-increasing quest for knowledge. They have encour- aged us when we seemed to falter and wanted to take easier paths. They helped us see the importance of the word—AM- BITION. We don't know where they get all their getrup-and-go and untiring energy to see us through all the numerous projects we think up during the year, but it's there and we deeply admire them. Any thanks we might say will seem small, but we would like for you to know that we truly hope we will turn out to be the sort of men and women you will be proud of—thanks to you!

JAMES Introducing the 1965-66 Senior Class SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The graduating class of 1966 is standing at the threshold of adulthood. We are all looking toward the future that awaits us, just as four years ago we looked toward the beginning of High School as an adventure and a challenge. In the fall of 1962, 172 students entered AHS as freshmen. Serving as homeroom presidents were; Candy Adams, Drew Dierking, Roger Hundley, Rod- ney McLenon, Steve McConnell, Barbara Mize, Alvin Wilson, and Judy Winklepleck. Tim Underwood served as Junior High Student Council president. Many of our boys participated on our Big Green football, basketball, and track teams. For the first time, we elected our own royalty, Candy Adams and Vinnie Willmeth, to reign over the Sports Dance Bridge to the Sun. The next year, as sophomores, we officially en- tered Senior High. The sophomore boys took part in senior high sports and cheering them on to vic- tory were cheerleaders Candy Adams, Pris Marlatt, Sue Merriman, Kathy Michaels, Barbara Mize, and Phyllis Rude. Also during our sophomore year eight students were inducted into the National Honor So- ciety. They were: Candy Adams, Ann Dagenais, Kathy Michaels, Barbara Mize, Kathy Stinson, Tim Under- wood, Mari Jo Wagner, and Sue Zschoche. Finally, our class advanced to the eminent posi- tion of juniors. Tim Underwood was elected presi- dent of our class. The other officers were: Lawrence Bailey, vice president; Sue Zschoche, secretary; and Cherie Shuck, treasurer. Talented thespians took part in the class play, The Curious Savage. Five junior lettermen helped to make our football team the Cen- tennial League Champions. Those boys were: Terry Dale, Cliff Downing, John Downing, Steve McCon- nell, and Bill Roper. The National Honor Society initi- ated Lawrance Bailey, Mike Dickeson, Rogena Down- ing, Steve McConnell, Jimmye Morris, Bob Ruhnke, and Cherie Shuck. Highlighting the year was the Junior-Senior Prom, Shangri-la. The fall of 1965 we reached the final phase of high school, Our Senior Year. We elected senior class officers: Bob Ruhnke, president; Joyce Dimick and Cherie Shuck, vice presidents; Marilyn Spencer, secretary and Jimmye Morris, treasurer. Members of our class were leaders in almost every organiza- tion. Doug Brown served as pesident of student council with Sherry Tull assisting him as vice-presi- dent and Ann Dagenais as secretary. Sue Zschoche was president of Kayettes, Barbara Mize president of Girls A Club, Candy Adams Band Captain, Cherie Shuck president of Top Thirty Chorus, and Steve Mc- Connell president of Boys A Club. Optimist co- editors were Sherry Tull and Marilyn Spencer and Trailblazer editor-in-chief was Barbara Mize. Sue Sul- livan led the senior High Pep Club and Pris Marlatt was head A team cheerleader. At our final Homecoming game, Pris Marlatt was crowned queen. With her attendants Candy Adams, Sue Merriman, .Kathy Michaels, and Barbara Mize, Pris reigned over the dance, Pink Panther. Other elected royalty throughout the year were: Sue Zschoche, queen of the Winter Formal; Jostein By and Phyllis Rude, king and queen of the Royal Courts Dance and Jim Jefferies, Twirp king. The dramatic talent of some of our class members was displayed in The Jury Room. Those initiated into the National Honor Society their senior year were: Kathy Brown, Doug Brown, Roger Hundley, Rodney McLenon, Vicky Liggett, Marilyn Spencer and Jane Weinmann. Our high school days are no more . .. they have certainly been an adventure, and as 148 members of the class of 1966 leave AHS we all in our own way have met the challenge with success.

He is an only child, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Jon By. His father is headmaster of an elementary school, a profession Jostein hopes to pursue. It was fortunate that Jostein was able to live with teachers, Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Palmer, while attending school in this country. Although Atchison didn't honor our popular foreign exchange student with any snow (he is an expert in skiing) he did enter another of his favorite activities—track—and was awarded a letter for the year. AHS students will always remember Jostein with respect and admira- tion for the way he accepted American ways and retained his European charm and tranquility. OTHER EXCHANGE students visited Jostein during the AFS Festival and enjoyed themselves. MR. EUGENE MOORE, Atchison, introduced himself to Jostein. AFS Festival WHAT would a festival be without balloons? The AFS Festival is becoming a looked- forward-to event at A.H.S. and brings out an enthusiastic crowd. Darrell Schmitt was chairman and did an excellent job in ap- pointing committees. SPONSOR Bill Alyea and Jerry Baumgard- ner (left) ate an early snack so they could cover all the event. EVERYONE had a “fun time and it was a toss-up which spot was the favorite during the evening. There was something for everyone. 68 GUESTS were busy all evening viewing the antiques which were auctioned off at the close of the festivities. AHS Democracy at W ork . . . Senior High School Student Council The Student Council is an organization of elected stu- dents serving their school to the best of their ability (and it must be agreed that they work hard to make a success of their projects.) These stu- dents represent the entire school. To belong is an ex- perience in learning more about being a responsible person. RIGHT: PRESIDENT DOUG Brown wields a hearty gavel. Surrounding him are senior members: Dimick, By, Kinney, Dagenais, Tull, Fast, Under- wood, Bailey, Rude, Marlatt and Mor- ris. SPONSOR ALYEA has been an un- tiring worker with students and will be greatly missed next year. Assisting him with a weighty problem are jun- iors: Chew, Irens, Bilderback, Sin- clair, Schmitt, Wahlert, Heck, Tilson, Lentz and Marshall. LEFT: SOPHOMORES were not to be outdone in work by their senior members and they spent many hours in assisting with the gov- erning of their school. SEATED, Jane Sappington, is assisted by classmates Nye, Vanek, Snowden, Shuck, Barnett, Hoecker, Goodman and Underwood. Many of these students will be important leaders during their junior year, so the experience has been very useful for prepara- tions. 69 DENTON, Rude, Randall, Merritt, Morley, Dickeson, Brown, Zschoche, Clough, Bailey, Shuck, Willis, Sinclair, Tilson, Irons, Kincaid Enret, Craig, Stinson, Moyer. SUCCESSFUL SEASON The Atchison High school debate and speech squads provided Atchison with one of the most successful years to date. The season stretching from October, 1965 to March, 1966 showed 17 trophies won for the school plus six individual trophies and awards won by students. Of the 23 total awards, 14 were for first place and top honors. Included in this total was the unprecedented third win in a row of the State National Forensic League speech-debate sweepstakes. First places in Highland Park, Pittsburg and Emporia were some of the other major wins. Tom Willis, junior, was the individual state champion in dramatic interpretive reading and Sue Zschoche, senior, was runner-up in the girls division. Linda Denton and Tom Willis were individual champions at the Emporia Speech Festival, which was won by AHS for the third straight year. Most of the awards were team awards, but individual champions were numerous on the squad. A number of top speakers graduate, but the squad returns a strong nucleus of top-flight ma- terial. Prospects look excellent for another great year in 1966-67.

Students of AHS will long remember the dedi- cated cheerleaders, who faithfully served through wind, rain, hail and snow. THESE DESPERADOES appeared in an early fall assembly.

The Moment for Which Every Senior Has ONE OF THE most beautiful features of the annual Commencement exercises is the oak leaf ritual, performed by girls of the Junior class. It has been a tradition since 1911. ANN DAGENAIS has a beautiful smile for her father, who was on stage as a member of the Board of Education. (Mike Dickeson joined her). Tim Underwood and Sue Zschoche, adjoining, are no doubt, intent on speeches to follow. NOW IF YOU'VE ever wondered how the school acquires those oak wreaths, think no morel They come about through the efforts (and muscle) of dedicated woodsmen (looking faintly familiar—oh come now, it couldn't be our junior men, could it?) 88 Waited . .

This is the part of the ceremony to which parents, brothers and sisters look forward (even though it is a little difficult at times to spot their loved-one because of the excitement of the occasion. One parent said that they all look alike hurrying to their seats but they take on their own identity the minute they rush up to embrace their parents to show off their diplomas.

MR. DENNY and Congressman Chester Mize, who spoke at an assembly. LINDA COCHRAN was named all-around athlete at St. Joe 1966-67 PEP CLUB OFFICERS: Schmitt, Simpson, Mize and Sportsday. Heck. 1966-67 SENIOR OFFICERS: Sue Young, Debbie Mier, Christy Lentz and Nancy Miller. RON GARVIN was absent the day the basketbal picture was taken and we just couldn't let him go unnoticed. So here you are, Ron. HOW WRITERS GET THEIR INSPIRATION! ROY ClAYTER was a real hoofer at the Hull-A- Ba-Dig—in fact brought down the house. THE CHOW LINE at the Junior-Senior picnic (or perhaps the fourth-time-around-kidsl) 1966-67 JUNIOR CLASS Officers: Garvin, Heck, Wag- ner and Vanek. REMEMBER THE day the band went down to meet Pee Wee Erwin (with half the school following)? I 16 EVERYONE tries for a pinata at the AFS Festival. More Candids MR. CARRIER receives a birthday cake in the shape of a football field (it was good, too!) SLAVE DAY candidates awaiting a buyer. WHAT A WAY to spend a hot day. THAT quiet lull before the curtain goes up. Stuco Hull-a-Ba-Dig Assembly BYE BYE BIRDIE dancers warm THE RECORDING of Macbeth didn't send Bill HOW to get a high hair-do. DRESS-UP day brings out fancy frocks LARRY BAILEY started something when he began wearing large ties. Senior girls surprised him by blossoming out in some of their father's (and grandfather's) ties. Larry was delighted and graciously posed with his harem . In case you see someone peeking around behind the back row, it's Alan Tilson who just couldn't let Larry get by with all that publicity. MEMBERS of the News English class were assigned a picture- taking spree and Doug Brown did this masterpiece. Alan said it wasn't the easiest thing in the world to do because he thought Doug would never get it focused! ALWAYS a favorite spot during the AFS Festival—the sponge throw (see Wes and Roc?)
