A football rally provides these fair ladies with a golden opportunity to rid themselves of their inhibitions. MELONY SOUDER IS CROWNED QUEEN OF A.H.S.; Last September twenty-first, we enjoyed the first of our assembly programs — the Auburn High School Queen Competition. This program was the most im- portant one of the year, for from the competition would emerge the young lady who would represent Auburn in the DeKalb County Queen Contest. Participating were Melony Souder, Diane Walter, and Susie Kimble, a newcomer to A.H.S. When each of the candidates had made her own highly entertain- ing bid for the coveted position, the student body was in a quandry: Which candidate should be chosen? After the ballots were counted, Melony was declared the winner; and she proudly represented Auburn as an attendant in the court of Her Majesty, Miss DeKalb County. Melony Souder and her charm, the Speech Club and its plays and skits, Chuck Naidl and his slithery friends made this year ' s assembly programs unforgettable! Smiling confidently, Melony Souder prepares to dis- play her wealth of talent to all of DeKalb County. She did not disappoint our hopes for her success. Page 10

When we look back nostagically on our years at Au- burn High School, will we remember all of the solemn and scholarly activities that the student is inclined to re- gard as important? Or will we remember the common- place things, the routine things, the everyday things about which we were too wise to become sentimental? . . . The noisy enthusiasm and contagious spirit of our ball games . . . the way we strove to make the raft- ers ring at our pep sessions . . . the anxious hours of study we spent preparing for that test that really was not so bad after all . . . the relaxing hours that we de- voted to reading and perhaps just to dreaming by the fireplace in the library . . . the smile and the friendly hello that the student secretaries always had for us on blue Mondays . . . the little thrill of fear that we al- ways feit in spite of ourselves whenever our name was among those called to . . . report to the office imme- diately after announcements . . . . Familiarities — surely no other word could de- scribe these scenes more perfectly. Because we were a part of them so often, these activities seemed to have little significance — these were the things that were just too commonplace to be important. It is only now that we realize how much we shall miss them all. The mem- ories that they have afforded us will last forever. The library grounds possess a restful atmosphere that lightens the burden of study. The fountain, with its re- freshing tranquility, never lost its fascination for us. GRANTED ARE NOW AN UNFORGETTABLE PART OF US, Ask any bus driver: Are the Red Devils more spirited on the bus or on the field? Whoever drove this bus isn ' t telling. Which of us hasn ' t been a part of the morning lineup '

Our cheerleaders represent the height of beauty (?). None of us were boa-ed by Chuck Naidl ' s program. ASSEMBLIES PROVIDE WELCOME DIVERTISSEMENT We were amused by Art Sarceau and Phil Emerson, who portrayed two young vagabonds in the Thanks- giving Play. As a sideline, Mr. Showalter enjoys — er — playing the banjo, and occasionally he even, uh — sings? Maybe you ' d better stick to coaching, coach! Page I I
