Atlanta Community High School has enjoyed a continuous expansion throughout the year of 1936-37. After months of planning and agitation, an agreement was finally reached, and in the spring, of '36 construction was begun. Those were unforgettable days. The school grounds began to buzz with noise and activity. At first surveyors and contractors then machinery an material arrived. Trees were felled and riant sera-) ers began taking out tone of earth. ’loise and dust became a monotonous accompaniment to classroom activity. As the weather become warmer, social seif, ncc classes became a torture because windov.s were closed end shades lowered to prevent outside disturbance. Therefore, it was with a feoling of relief that students and teachers closed their boohs for the summer vocation. When wo returned to school lust fall it was with a sense of expectancy. In the place where children had rl yed stood four brick walls and the framework of the roof. Everyone watched with intense interest as the work progressed rooidly. The stage w-s built, fl.-ors were laid, and fixtures were installed. At length the night was set for the dedication of the gymnasium, a few days later when the contractors r leased the building for use, students and teachers began.a tour of inspection of the now addition. The gymnasium is most modern in every n spool. The floor of hard made is finished in a .lirror-Hko gloss. The bleachers stretch in shining lengths along the south walls to accommodate 350 spectators at athlo ic games and, with the adoit.ion of chairs, approximately 800 guests for plays and other entertainments. The co'rnmodius stage with its magnificent lighting system has added much to the oleasure of speech work and dramatics. One morning about the middle of October, classes were held for the first time in the '■ew classrooms. Latest methods of lighting and ventilating have been emol.ycd in both. The rooms each have large closets in which to stor books and papers. With the completion of the addition new classes were made possible. For the first time in several years regular physical education classes have been hold twice a week. Baseball, basket bull, volley ball, tapping and games were part of the program. a public speaking class was organized, and members were trained in oration, dramatic, humorous, and verse reading. Cn the evening of Nov tuber 6, the dedication exercises for our ni.w gym were held. After a most fitting rrogram the floor was initiated by a basket ball game with Latham. At last fond dreams are realized. For the first time in the history of tho town Atlanta has a high school gym. .She has truly taken a large step in the March of Progress and as a result has a building of which she can be justly proud for many years . F. H. ’37 i i The faculty, the board of education and the people of the community have made it possible for us to complete this portion of our education. For this we are very grateful. Everyone has cooperated with us and encouraged us in our every undertaking both scholastic and extra, curricular. They have been friends and companions throughout our school career. The happiness that we have enjoyed end the fri-nds fchf. rei h: Ve mr.de have been due to- their undying efforts. We wish to thank them one and all for having thus prepared us | to face the problems of life and may this debt be paid by our helping future generations over the same bax-rier. i STAFF FRONT ROY : Miss Blum, Eunice Williams, Juanita Taylor, Jeanne Knecbt, Mr. Stiekuey.

Larison Band and Orchestra (Not in Picture) -19 MATHEMATICS The practical use of higher mathematics after a student has left school is negligible so it is compulsory to take but very little of this sutjest. True, we could not get along without all of the types of engineers we have, but these men. are-in the minority, so higher mathematics should not be made compulsory for jits practical value after high school. However, the real value of mathematics lies not in the- knowledge of how to extract the root of an equation, nor in knowing the •properties of a aphere, but in the fact that it teaches the student to be logical. It jteaches him to organize his thoughts and to jpursue one thought until he has reached a' ;v-.u (conclusion instead of hinting around in the •dark and hoping it will come out all right. Work in mathematics shows that there is p reason behind everything, rnd that one jShruld have, a reason for everything he does. If everyone was taught to think logicallv -t.d constructively, and the fact that there is' • reason for everything was brought home to veryone, our high schools would turn out much letter men and wemen. I As mathematics is the only subject unin- fluenced by the inconsistent antics of man, it ehould tr taught to every high school student. I SOCIAL SCIENCE Under the division of social science, high school geography, civics, economics and history are 'offered. These subjects discuss man's relations ship to his environment, human relations as they exist in what is known as organised society, explains man as a wealth getter and a wealth user. They also bring to us the past record of. social achievements which, if properly interpreted, serves as a guide for present action and assist in forecasting the future. i t - ’ Unoer the classification of history, American and world history are given. American history gives an account of events from the periods of 'American exploration to the present day. World history is the story of man and his attempts to better his conditions on the face of the {. earth. I. I. Y. '37 VI Tv - Q i i !■ ii I ;i. ' I ' i !i ' i t « •i 1 j . r ■ - ENGLISH In the Atlanta High school, English is a required subject. Miss blum is the teacher for the freshman, sophomore, and senior classes, and Miss Walker, for the junior class. The freshman class is divided into two alternating sections. - The first semester one.section studies literature and the other studies’ composition and grammar. The second semester this is reversed. During the first semester the sophomore class continues the study of composition and grammar; the junior class studies letter writing, journalism, debating, and advanced composition; the senior class studies Shakespearean and modern drama. The sophomore class devotes the second semester to English literature; the juniors study American literature, the seniors review literary types-and grammar. At the beginning of the school year the freshman' and sophomohe classes, under-the supervision of Miss Blum, visited the public library and oecame acquainted with the Dewey-Decimal arranging system of books. This system of arranging books is used both in our public and school libraries. •At the end of a four year study of this subject one should be capable of expressing himself both orally and in writing, and also be acquainted with 3ome of the masterpieces of his language. E. L. '37 t. LATIN Latin] Dear Latin] The pride, hope, joy, and. bane of Atlanta's freshmen and sophomores,, few realize how heroically said, freshmen and sophomores sweat and fume and groan trying valiantly to conquer Hercules and Caesar, Such conjugations, such declensions, such indicatives, such subjunctives I The first totering steps in Latin are devoted to a study of vocabulary, the simple facts of grammar, and English words derived from Latin. Interesting items of life as the Romans lived it are ''no perused. In the first part of the second year come more .conjugations, more declensions, more indicatives, more subjunctives—in short, more grammar. Bigger and bettor Latin words are encouraged to flourish and take up residence in the student's minds. Stories about the labors of Hercules and I came; I saw; I conquered Caesar are read with might and main. All in all, there are very few Latin students who don't show a pardonable display of pride when the end of the year rolls around and they have passed Latin. The Latin student has learned and is utilizing new words derived from Latin text books. He has gained a much larger knowledge of Roman life and a more expansive understanding of days long past; also, a feeling that his energy has not been wasted in vain. R. A. i39 PTD!

The sports taken this past year were base-hail, relays, horseshoes, shuffle board, basketball, volley ball, and tap dancing. The latter was taken about two months and three dances were learnod in that short time due to the enthusiasm of the girls about this type of dancing. Tournaments were held in basketball, volley ball, and baseball. In basketball and volley ball the third hour class was successful in defeating the fourth hour class. These games botween classes wore hold after school and the games within the classes wore played in the regulur period.

Atlanta lost a very close game to Stanford ■ at Stanford 22 to 20 tut we have high hopes of upsetting their apple-cart later on- Latham proved entirely too strong as the | game was played and the boys turned up on the I wrong end of the score to be left behind 41 to On the New Holland floor Atlanta shellacked their opponents 39 to 15. Atlanta dropped another close one, this t.ime to Kenney by a score of 19 to 17. The Atlanta team was sound 1 defeated by a quintet of sharpshooters from McLean. The first team wa3 never able to get going and in desperation Coach Price inserted the second team which made four field goals in the time which they played. The final score of this I disastrous ;ame was 33 to 9 it: favor of the in-i vaders. I Atlanta was invited to lay n the Heyworth tournament and drew Beason as their opponents. In the game the borne team si pped again, losing 38 to 30. McLean defeated Beason in the finals to win the tournament. The Atlanta team journeyed to Waynesville and for the first time of the year really found out where the basket was located. Larry Kindred was especially warm on this evening 'ind clicked off eleven baskets and two free throws. I'he game ended with Atlanta on top ty the nice margin of ‘59 to 21.

As the finaj nun went off the people who saw that game knew that Atlanta was the team to win after they had watched them defeat Latham 29 to 25. Atlanta's next game in the tournament was something which hao to be done as a matter of routine. The game was with -nnc'.cn and the Reserves played cost of the ' ame. The team took this one 29 to 17. In the game with hartsburg Atlanta had worthy opponents. The Stags v; re fighting mad, due to a rather disagreeable boating in ar eardier game, and for some time the lea was changing hands rapidly. At the half Hartsburg led 18 to 17, The third quarter was entirely different from every angle, hartsburg was tired from the strenuous initial naif and Atlanta piled u c. 29 to 18 lea ' at the end of the third quarter, The last quarter saw play remain- ever, and again wo were victorious, this time 36 to win entitled us to play in the final 2b, This s with Season. The battle with Season was the highlight of the season for Atlanta's basketball team, ns usual, Atlanta ’. as doped tc be defeated by the sports editors of the new ay pers in the surrounding towns, and a nice crowd was on hand from .Season and Latham to see it lone. With most of Atlanta in the gym it T,as literally packed tc the rafters. The score was close from start to finish and changed hands several times during the 'ray. In the lass quarter the lead changed no less than five times, and with less than thirty seconds to play Atlanta took the ball out of bounds. It was tossed into Paulsen, and, standing in the middle of tns floor with cnl; seconds to go and tlx score tie at 26 all, ho got another of his spectacular long3 through the net to w;.n the best game in the history of the tournament. This last shot lade the already excited is.ns almost delirious with joy, and they surged, onto the floor to congratulate Coach irice anc his boys for one of the finest ex-nib it ions an Atlanta team has ever put on.

Leonard is plenty fast on his feet and snagged many a fly that might have otherwise caused the toarn a lot of trouble. Batting left handed he was a continual cause of grief to opposing pitchers. Merlin Curtis mado his debut in the game at Latham, caught three flics and hit like a big-lcaguor. Prom then on his position in center field was assured. Right field was played by sevoral boys. Bill Thompson, Eugene Hubner, and Merlin all played in right field although Merlin was later shifter; to center. Bill Thompson finished up in Right f icld . The winning of the Logan Dewitt conference . marked the seventh consccltive year Atlanta has won the conference and the seventh year tho loop has been organized. This speaks volumes for Coach Price who has won this for five straight yoars against strong competition. The final game of the year with Athens was a thriller from start to finish and was undoubtedly the best game of the year. Athens had a perfect record until they hit Atlanta and wore reputod to bo one of the best baseball teams in the atato but when they left Atlanta on the evening of October 23rd they wore numbered among the vanquished. i i GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Thirty-five girls appeared .in the music room in September, 193d, to organize the Girls' Glee Club under Miss Knowles' efficient direction. At this first meeting the officers for the new year were elected as follows: oresident, Jeanne Knecht; vice-oresident, Vivian Gresham; secretary-treasurer, Madeline Coddington; accompanist, Jeanne Knecht.

Prom Monday on telephones shrilled to the borrowing, of derbies, soliciting of cakes, and pleas for barkers. On November 20, came the day! At seven-thirty came the hour. Entering from, the south, one encountered an official looking table piled high with rolls of tickets, retailing at five cents each.

Continual commotion around the north basket in the gym mahked the basket-shooting gallery. Behind a couple of screens, a fish pond appeared for the evening. Strange fish were caught over the screens to the accompaniment of giggles and snouts. In a corner off the stage, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing t' t the truth about the future was available to the public at large. Another corner alcove labeled Xe Beauty Shoppe'1 produced colorful finger nails and new complexions. The music room resounded to melodius strains of the victrola and optimistic, tread of the seek-ers-aftor-cakes. Sudden stops were filled with grief and glee. The hungry patron found the commerce room a refreshing interlude--the home of the hot dog, candy, and steaming coffee. Tiie theater attractions occupied the newly dedicated gymnasia. At eight'o'Clock Elmer ; appeared on the-boards with a cast including Russell Jurth as the misunderstood Elmer; Juanita Taylor and Jeanne Khecht as Elmer's hilarious and interfering twin sisters; Grace Baldwin as the very black and very slow Fannybelle, faithful family servant; Josephine Hiller ar the do v nated young sister; Eunice Wr. j liana as the mother; Bob Applegate as the twin's young mao.;1, Qcrdon Keown as a ciiauffcring friend; and Frances Howard as a harrasced dressmaker1 engaged to make over a twin's dress for the young, donurated sister. At nine o’clock the all-star ministre1, gleam-.ng and grinning in full black-up, rendered jokes, songs, and choruses before .an enthusiastic audience.

GIRLS1 PHYSICAL EDUCATION EINEn ROAST The ‘‘dog days ' of a bhlmy October led 3ome thirty or more girls to take to bicycles and shank's ponies for a two mile jaunt after cheering the baseball boys to victory over Hartsburg last October 10, Bicycles were somewhat scareer than girls, but all manged to arrive at Criswell's before starvation set in. ‘'Hot daw s, mustard, pickles, and marshmallows were in order for a quiet but eloquent ten minute interlude after a thirty minute hand-to-hand struggle with a should-be fire. The chief casualty of the expedition was an erstwhile hale and hearty commerce teacher. A week of iodine and sympathy eased the memory of the out ng for her, however. SENIOR SidSR ROAST The Seniors, and few invited underclassmen motored to Camp Oresheim on October lu Tor a tasty dog fry. Upon arrivin’; at the ate, we dismounted from our autos and fought our ay up the hills, down the hills, through thick brush, snakes, creeks, an mud to the camp fire. A few s udents fell into the small streams but this was taken in - ood fun and the party was a merry and hungry one when wo finally reached the bluff, reserved for camp pow-wows. A campfire was built and the students eagerly ate weiners, buns, pickles, and marshmallows. Upon finding we possessed no bottle onener to remove the lid of catsup bottle, hr. frice b. came the honary boy scout for the evening, when he opened the bottle with his belt buckle. After all the food had been consumed, the campfire was blanketed and the party started on their journey back down the hills and valleys. Ue stopped at the mess hall and had a few students tell stories, and then went on our way, s mple fil , and ven noisilv for fear someone would be lost. The g .rls wore especially worried about this when told that fierce animals were frequentoly seen around the premises. At last the cars were reached and we spe-' bach to town sing. , thinking of the nice weiner roast we had enjoyed.

To be oolite, we will mention your president, Ralph Paulsen, first. Ralph, when you get to be a senior, don't tell thfe teachers you won't do a thing and then d- it. 'Tell them you will do it and then don't. The only fault we have v ith Dcnnabclle Peek, is that she finds a certain sophomore more in- teresting than one of our senior's. Mow, Donnabelle, is that nice? Next we come to Bernard Twomey. Nardy, you must learn to stand up before you become a senior. Remember the floors in the building are ageing and won't always hold up under the strain of your falls. Doris I,ubia..i is so quiet we hardly know she is around. 'Jake up Doris, you know senior girls can't day-dream about their boy friends. Era Cook has a fault that must be corrected Era, you must 3top yelling your answers in class.

Betty Cheek hides her faults pi’etty well so all vre can say is that if she continues in her quiet and studious way she will oe an ideal student, Cuma Baker, really should give the home boys a break instead of leaving her affections in Lincoln, There is nothing wrong with Lola Cook except she always gets to school on time.

We have patiently heard the kindly advice which you have seen fit to bestow upon us so liberally. Of course, as you have already pointed out, we cannot even hope to attain the high achievements that you have accomplished,-- j but--we have discovered one little thing which you overlooked in forming an opinion of yourselves. You are j just a trifle too much in love with yourselves, egotistical j is the word Therefore we deem it fitting and proper that ; , we should peine out a few of your failings in order to lower your exaited pedestal a notch or two„ First, comes' Robert Applegate, a shining example of your brilliant class. Bob, after this when you go riding in the country and get stuck, suppose you try pushing ; for a change, Second comes Jeanne Krecht, the flaming red-head of your classv Oracle. you should know that basketball players are item or- less short-winded, so, for heaven's; sake, after this, try giving the poor boy time to get his breath, j j Third comes Tom Hie, a very brilliant lad of -your clas$4 Tom did you ever stop to think that you can't always go; j ! through life bluffing your way? One of these days you are j j going to find somebody you can:t bluff and then how are • j : you going to meet the situation? Eunice, we’re glad to find cur that you decided to j ; start all over again, tie only wish that you would pick a younger lad, however, they say that it is better to be an old man's darling than a young .tan's slave. ; ' Next comes Merlin Curtis. Merlin your old Chevvy has lasted miraculously through all these years of school, but for future courting p - noses, why don tjou trade it in on a new one and let a unger child finish the old crate for you? Juanita you are a very charming, little, dark com-, plexioned girl, but' you mustn't mind the faint glimmer from a flashlight quite so much. A kiss in the dark is worth two in the light, especially when they are from the right person. Just a little more advice to you Juanita.
