Physical education classes were always something to see! The dreaded calisthenics and the din- ner just eaten never seemed to agree. Our helpful and concerned guidance director, Mr. Note- stine, has advised many sen- iors, including Jo Ann EIlli- ott, about their futures. “Look out!!!” was the remark of a buddy in the back seat as Ron Sproat ‘took off” for another attempt at driver education. ARTS AND SKILLS

Preparing for their futures, many A.H.S. stu- dents worked diligently this year at varied courses. Those who wished to become prominent in the business world slaved hour after hour over a type- writer or dictaphone or some other business machine. Those who took shorthand struggled through many hours of dictation. Most were able to translate their scribble after the hour had ended. Young men who wished to become engineers or carpenters are introduced to shop machines, drafting, blueprint reading, auto mechanics, carpentry, pat- tern making, and molding. Four years of shop are offered at A.H.S. Shop is categorized into machine shop, wood shop, and drafting. Learning how to cook and sew through study, practice, and trial and error, home economics students become efficient. Sometimes home economics stu- dents were allowed to test their own cooking by eating dinner at school in the home economics kitch- en. Many “home ec.” students proudly wore the clothing they -had sewn in class. Besides cooking and sewing, home economics offers home planning and design. Four years of home economics are offer- ed at A.H.S. As an extra credit effort, many of the students entered an area sewing contest. The winner was Sue Muzzillo, a senior. Gloria Bassett operates an adding machine used in clerical and secretarial training, while Margaret Jen- nings uses a dictaphone and a typewriter. PERFECTION IN VARIED FIELDS OF ENDEAVOR In the home economics kitchen, we see Elizabeth scorched food, and pricked fingers are a ‘“‘necessary” Clemens, Carole Long, Evy Mavis, Sue Muzzillo, and part of the practice that makes perfect.

“M.F. does not mean MORE FORCE!”’ was a fa- miliar sound heard by energetic band students. Dur- ing third period on band days the entire student body listened to the tuning up and practicing of our musicians. Under the direction of Mr. Richard Nor- ris, the band did a superior job this year at games, contests, and concerts. Five chorus groups were prominent at A.H.S. this year: the Concert Choir, Boys’ and Girls’ Choruses, the Boys’ Quartet, and the Mixed Choir. Mrs. Voss gave them confidence and skill. Physical education classes will be remembered be- cause of the huge ball kicked around, the hilarious basketball games, volleyball games, and trudging down to the field. Especially remembered is the shouting laughter heard when a good buddy was thrown into the ice cold shower. “A little paint never hurt anyone!” was the ex- cuse of a fellow art student who missed his picture. This year art students will especially remember the puppets from outer space, water color paintings, and working with mosaics. With President Gloria Bassett, the Band Council makes many decisions concerning the activities of the band. DEVELOP ALL-AROUND CHARACTER The choir practiced hard for the many performances in which it took part. Surely we will never forget “Pll Be Home For Christmas.” “Splish! Splash! I was painting a picture!’ Joe Lemper’s illustration of a city shows the fine work that comes out of our art classes. Page 13
