Superintendent of Schools 1944-1976 It doesn't seem that 32 years will soon have passed since I moved my family to Buffalo, as the NEW Superintendent of Schools. July 1,1944. To attempt to list 32 years of events, change, successes, fail- ures. high points, low ebbs, etc., in all areas of our society in this brief space would be folly. This time saw the termination of World War II and the brutality of two other major conflicts since that time, with all the tremendous changes they brought to all people throughout the world. As 1 come to the close of my responsibilities as your superintendent of schools. I do so with deep gratitude for many things: the dedicated support you have given me the thousands of fine youth I've been privileged to serve the many hundreds of graduates dedicated to service in their chosen fields the thousands of friendships my family and I have made among you the educational opportunities this area has given my children and yours These are only a part of the many reasons I am thankful. In this last book in which it will be my opportunity to write I want to express my gratitude to those you chose to serve education as members of the Board of Education. Many of them now are gone. The names of those deceased are indicated with an asterisk. On the Board that brought me here 32 years ago were: Phi 11 Hawkins Dr. W. L. Woody L.B. Jones Bert Neill Glenn Thomas C.A. Bonner The present Board: Harold Morgans Deraid Henderson Ernie Mayfield Vernon Viets Dr. Charles E. Moore Ed Garrison In between the first board and last one I've served were: Murrell Indermuehle Owen Neill Jim Peters Dr. D.D. Church Tom Pachl Ray Bennett Floyd Reset Ward Rea James Hawkins Keith Kendall Ishmael McDaniel Hadley Thomas To all these men the community is indebted. Their total interest as members of the Board of Ed- ucation was directed toward the educational welfare of the child. 1 am grateful for them and the ser- vice they rendered The educational leadership of this fine school system from July 1. 1976 will be in excellent hands. Mr. Jack Howard, in my opinion is well trained, experienced and dedicated to his profession educational administration. To Mr. Howard, and the rest of the administration, to the teachers, students, and entire community I wish the best and will always support my school in every way. Dr. O.A. Griffin Fay Coffman Leighton Clark R.L Whited Richard Petree BUI Nunn 4 In Dallas County Missouri the words progress and education are synonyms for the name D.A. Mal- lory. Newcomers to the community often express pleasurable amazement when comparing the tax base of the district with the Dallas County educational system. This year a newly compiled report of curriculum will reveal over 14S subjects open to the Buffalo hi h school student. An aerial view of the Buffalo campuses, which docs not include the newest acquistion, the Dallas County Area Voca- tional Technical School, reflects the growth of the Dallas County schools. A fitting tribute to the man responsible for this growth is the D.A. Mallory Elementary School which was so named at a formal dedication on March 19.1972. General Douglas Mac Arthur once made the now famous statement: Old soldiers never die. They just fade away. A contemporary writer. Ray Bradbury, has aptly phrased the idea saying. “No per- son ever died who had a family. Although Mr. Mallory announced his retirement in 1976, he will con- tinue to live as Superintendent of Schools not just in Dallas County but in the vast wide areas where his “family is still perpetuating the ideals and standards he sought to instill in them. Mr. Doug Cassity, now a Springfield lawyer and Buffalo High School graduate, expresses this idea in a letter to Mr. Mallory. ...lam proud and thankful that I had the opportunity of attending a school system which prepared me both morally and educationally for the challenges of higher education, business, and life. I am sure that all students have one thing that stands out more than others with re- gard to the talks you used to have with students in a sincere attempt to inspire them to higher achievement. The one thine that you said that continues to inspire me day after day is that the most ignorant of all people are those who don’t know that they don’t know”. Understanding that phrase produces both compassion for those who “don't know and inspiration for those of us attempting to obtain the knowledge. You have truly left your mark on untold numbers of us and I simply want to say Thank you .... The 1976 Bison is hereby proudly dedicated to Mr. D.A. Mallory. Jack Howard will take the reigns as superintendent in July. Charles Johnson presented an oil portrait of Superintendent D.A. Mallory at the Alumni Banquet. 5 Christmas Parade Is Tradition The Buffalo Christmas parade has been a tradition in Buffalo since the 1940’s. Every year, floats are assembled and a Miss Merry Christmas is picked from the high school girls. Lori Franklin, Freshman, was Miss Merry Christmas this year with can- didates: Mari Slocum, Senior; Stacy Keith, Junior; and Sherry Henderson, Sopho- more. 6 1.

Mary Parris and Steve Johnson are demonstrating why they were picked “Most Friendly.” 5. Bison King, “Who me?” 6. “Things go better with coke!” 7. Look at us standing up there smiling front center! 8. What’s going on? Oh, it’s just Anita Nunn and J.D. Weiser showing us why they are “Most Humorous.” 9. J.D. Gann and Susan Woods were “Most Dependable” in 1975 and 1976. 10. Good grief, how long do I have to stand like this? 11. Kim Dismang says to Steve Lindsay, ‘“School spirit ? That’s funny!” 12. Denise Spoering and Jeff Bates, “Most Versatile”, take interest in a little of everything! 13. Becky Griffith says to Mike Brown, “I know we arc ‘Most Courteous’, but you don’t have to open the door that far!” 14. It’s not a brick wall, but it’s the best I can do. Bison Football Festival Novembeisi Jii75 14 I i I Seniors Were the Spirit of 76 The 1975-76 school year is nearly over, and the Seniors of 76 will take a lot of good mem- ories with them when they leave BHS: the ball games they cheered at, the plays they watched, the dances they enjoyed together. The Seniors will have with them forever the spirit of their time. 16 Spirit of 76 of the people by the people for the people Two hundred years later-1976-is a mark- ing point in history. And to some of us it's the ending of an era. Yet, while it's the ending of one era, it's just the beginning of another era, the future. Will we still be as smiling and confident as we are now? We don't know. But we are con- fident that the Spirit of '76, of the people, by the people, and for the people will carry on. -Rhonda Sweaney 17 Activities Stu Co Willing To Work From repairing signs to helping others, the Student Council added many extra touches to this school year. They began by replacing the weather-beaten sign in front of the school with a brand new. shiny, red one. built and painted by council members. Extra plans for the Football Festival this year included a Kid’s Day and a School Colors Day. which seemed to get everyone involved. With the help of P.T. A. they were able to serve punch at all theu dances, which was a welcome treat after all that dancing. They added a new dance this year by sponsoring a formal Holiday Dance. December 13. right in the midst of the holiday season. Everyone came decked out in their best, and it was quite a formal affair right down to Christmas trees, decorations, and wreaths. In the spirit of the Bicentennial, the council wrote a new constitution. , J Getting their first taste of government, the junior high Advisory Council, with their sponsor Mr. Dull, kept the junior high end of the school busy ami involved. ..... . . Yes. the year has been a busy one. as most members found out just how much planning is behind such events as homecoming or a dance. They also learned that it takes more than one or two people to get a job done. It takes the cooperation of the council, their sponsor Mr Pass- more. and the time and services of many other people working together to nuke their projects a success. If you walked up to just about any council member today and asked them how the year went, they would probably reply, “It was work, but it was worth it. 20 1. The 1975-76 Student Council included: Craig Sample, Joy Bennett. Angela Hawkins, Donna Wood, Beth Ford, Debbie How- ard, Elizabeth Patterson, Cathy Cassity, Pam Ritter, Denise Spoering, Sandra Righter, Jack Henderson, Patsy Atteberry, Rick Bursey, John Roach, George Righter, Rodney Spcrko, Tony Sample, John Amschler, and John Harmon. 2.

The FHA won second place in a poster contest at the regional meeting. The poster was created by Karen Wallace and Colleen Nimmo. The girls also had a Bicentennial poster contest. They entered a float in the Christmas parade and went Christmas caroling. In January a tea was held. Mrs. Judy Kennedy sponsors this large group. Their annual mon- eymaking project is the sale of Stanley products in the fall. The FFA, a group also involved in area activities, held their annual Barnwarming at the Dallas County Area Vo-Tech School on October 25. Miss Angela Hawkins was crowned Barnwarming Queen and repre- sented the group in the Christmas parade. Some of the boys attended the American Royal in Kansas City. FFA’ers have been active in judg- ing contests around the state. The Buffalo FFA is a member of area eight FFA. The group builds several pieces of farm equipment each year for themselves and other people around the community. The FFA members and their sponsor, Mr. Steve Potter, are also busy in the sum- mer when they help with the annual Dallas County Fair. Both of these groups participate in community projects and prepare young men and women to assume future responsibilities. 22 1.

For its birthday KBFL received a gift of 22,000 dollars to go stereo but not without a lot of hard work from the KBFL staff and the community. . . . KBFL is one of the most unique radio stations in southwest Missouri. It s non-commercial and school owned and operated. Along with offering a wide variety of music, it provides the community with the latest in news and special programming.

Linda Jenkins and Ron Hayes come all the way from Pleasant Hope each day just to broadcast over KBFL. 25 Gals Tap Twirl and Turn The Buffalo Gals Drum and Bugle Corps had a fascinating experience at the Portland, Oregon Grand Floral Rose Parade in June, 1975.

These musi- cians start out in the elementary schools learning to play an instrument. Then, from their sixth grade band in the Buffalo Elementary School, or from the Long Lane band, they come to the Buffalo Junior High Band, and finally end up in the Buffalo High School Concert Band. Bryan Hlhard directs all bands except the Long Lane Band which is led by Mrs. Donna Ashworth. The final moment of glory comes for a student when he becomes a section leader in the concert band.

These groups, under the direction of Mrs. Carol Faucett, are bigger and better than ever! One special concert given this year was the Bicentennial pro- gram. The junior high music department gave the perform- ance entitled Revolutionary Ideas. Another outstanding program given by the Girls’ Glee Gub and Mixed Chorus was the Christmas program. 1. The Girls’ Glee Club blend their voices together in a song at one of their many concerts. 2. Tomi Saunders accompanied the Mixed Chorus on her bass in two numbers at the annual Fall Concert. 3.

The junior high music department gave a pleasing performance at the Bi- centennial program. 31 Our ball club this year was 5-2 in Conference and 5-4 for the year. Al- though this was just a better than average record, this team was very com- petitive and had a chance to win every game due to the record setting de- fensive team and great team spirit. Our offense was young this year, but with 9 of 11 offensive starters back, we should be able to move the ball well the next couple of years. The players and coaches would like to thank the school administration, parents, and fans for the fine support we received all year long in setting crowd attendance records again this year.

Miss LaWanka Mallard, as having no substitutes but ten girls who can play.

It was opened in 1972, and since then has served many stu- dents from thirteen different schools in a three county area. The building at Louisburg houses classrooms for ten courses; building trades, elec- tronics, welding, auto mechanics, business practices, auto body, auto mechanics, vo- cational agriculture, health occupations, and heating and refrigeration. Printing, pho- tography, and radio broadcasting are also part of the vocational-technical school, but they are part of the Buffalo High School campus. The students who attend the vo-teach school learn practical knowledge that will be a big part of their life after they graduate. The year, the carpentry class is working on three houses. Forty-seven students are learning the carpentry trade through on- the-job experience. The last semester for the health occupations class consists of actual work in doctor’s offices and other medical facilities. For the past four years, the Dallas County Area Vocational-Technical School has been training young people to go out into the world from high school and find a place in their community. 52 1.

He Left A Smile To Posterity 1958-1974 Fourscore and seven years ago our foreteachers brought forth on this continent a new school conceived in a complete dictatorship and dedicated to the proposition that students and teachers are not created equal. Now we are engaged in a great student-teacher war, testing whether a school, or any school, so constructed can long endure. We are met on a great football field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final torturing place for those who were captured. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hollow this football field. The fearful students, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they didn’t do here. It is for us, rather, to be dedicated to unfinished words which they who fought here have thus far advanced. It is rather for us to be dedicated to the great task remaining before us that from these fearful fighters we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion-that we here highly resolve that these smugglers shall not have struggled in vain-that this school under the monarch, shall have a new birth of Slavery-and that dictatorship by the government, for the parents and against the student shall not perish from this scene! Martin Cullor (This was written when Martin was a freshman and shortly after the new football field had been dedicated.) 84 Farewell Now. My Friend 1 love you my friend You’re quite dear to me, A true friend you are And always will be. But you’re leaving me soon And going your own way, Perhaps we will meet In the future some day. You’ve left me with memories Of good times we’ve had, To treasure forever And make me feel glad. I wish you good luck In all that you do May all life's pleasure Come your way, too. Farewell now, my friend And please may you Find Some thoughts of me Always in your mind. Karen Herang 85 I’ll Still Be Friends With You NO Friends, I will remember you. Think of you, pray for you. And when another day is through, I’ll still be friends with you. John Denver Seniors ’76 for for for looking up looking back reaching out . . . A time A time A time Remember all the things that made those years come true; but most of all, please my friend. Remember me, as 111 remember you. Twelve long years have passed since 1963, and through those years we have experienced many things. As we grew, fads changed and things happened. We experienced 50 cent gas, the minis and maxis, inflation and recession. Now we are approach- ing the end of the 12th year when we will be turning a new page in our lives. Well remember most, the bits and pieces that fit to- gether and create 12 fantastic years, things such as: go-go boots and sissy bars, crew cuts and jacked up cars, the Ozark Moun- tain Dare devils. Remember lunch hours and glass packs, dress codes and 8-tracks, your favorite teacher? Remember Watermill and hula hoops, Elton John and minority groups, 55 m.p.h. speed limits? Then there’s crowded buses and turning 16, the tornado and ini- tial rings, Chinese jump ropes. Remember painted vans and super balls, clackers and study halls, buzzing the square on a Saturday night? Remember slumber parties and Watergate, fish nets and staying out late ... all those 12 o’clock curfews? Remember saddle oxfords and tether ball, faded Levi’s and junior high halls? How about the year we took C.O.C. Triple Crown. Remember the ice storm and tardy bells, hay rides and KBFL, and passing your drivers test? How about the Hustle and wide tires, snake dances and bon fires, or underground newspapers? To this list we could add Snack Shack, prom 75, the car wash, camper road, CB’s, bucket seats, silly putty, pierced earrings, and pointed tennis shoes. This is just a small glimpse of those years, and as we go our different ways we will remember . .. Ruth Pulis Richard Pulis Storm clouds hover over the field of life, thundering loudly and quickly; the rain takes five. Life, a fair field of blossoms, petals of which no one takes score, til some fair blossom is missing we begin to think of life more. In life my thoughts and actions and products of creativity are made for you and silently, when we are dead, plead for you to remember me. Death, the blind patron of life chooses from an unseen fatal lot, but the flowers of life weep in fear that you forgot. So shed a tear, one single drop remember me ... remember .. .

Who has made it that way? None other than Mr. Kendall and the Scout Staff. They are the ones who keep us informed on what’s happening around the campus. It is those same people that you may see carrying a large pile of Scouts from class to class to make sure that every student and teacher gets a copy. The amazing thing is that the staff, along with the printing and photography classes of B.H.S., produce all eleven hundred copies each month. The Scout Staff keeps us informed from month to month, but the Annual Staff helps us remember all those events from year to year. As with the Scout, the annual, sponsored by Mrs. Beverly Evans, is also getting bigger and better, having received national recognition for the third year. All year long they work unseen by most, to make sure pictures get taken, layouts get drawn, and it all gets together before a deadline. They secretly plot their cover shots, vowing to keep it a deep secret until the finished annual arrives in the spring. Very few people except those on both staffs really know the time and effort put into the Bison Annual and Scout. But both staffs would probably agree that the effort put forth pays off when they see their finished products and are able to say, “I took that picture,” ‘‘I wrote that article,” and “We put it together.” 124 Carolyn Cooper, Janice Davis and Steve Spence keep the Bison campus well-in- formed. 2. “Peek-a-boo!” 3. “Bobbie, we know you don’t like Billy but we didn’t think you’d go this far.” 4. “Oh shut up, Billy!” 5. “If only. . . ’ Janice Davis and Elaine Durham admire their copies of the Scout. 6. Hard at work the Scout staff put together another edition. 7. The Annual Staff is: (Front) Alana Jewell, Sandy Righter, Ruth James, Steve Johnson, Eva Brown, Rene Kreisal; (Back) Denise Spoering, Mary Parris, Rhonda Sweaney and Bobbie Montgomery delight in the fun of dunking Billy Chapman’s head thoroughly. Barely pictured are Dale Chastine and Anita Nunn. 8. These five juniors of the Annual Staff will carry on next year. 9. “One more time, Alana!” 125 1. Mr. and Mrs. Glor on their wedding day. 2. Miss Barbara Clark during her college daze. 3. Mr. Avery Harriman with his first class. 4. Mrs. Leta Buchanan and her bicycle. 5. Mrs. I redda Heady now teaches elementary music. 6. Mrs. Sally Shantz has taught 21 years at Buffalo. 7. Mrs. Polly teaches 5th grade. 127 Mr. Mallory - Then and Now Thirty-two years ago Mr. Mallory met the challenge for the best in education for the Dallas County youth. Each year the challenges were met and goals have been far surpassed. We now attend, under his leader- ship, a nationally recognized school which has led all others of its size in a wide curriculum, excellently equipped buildings, active sports pro- gram, outstanding faculty, healthy community support, good commun- ication, and a never ceasing desire to grasp something better in edu- cation. The Dallas County R! Schools, including the D.A. Mallory Ele- mentary School, which bears his name with pride, define Mr. Mallory’s dedication to education. 128 1. Back in the saddle. . . .as I started teaching. 2. Travels have been extensive here and abroad. 3. We stood side by side, hand in hand, as we taught kids from Verona to Buffalo. 4. We still spell cat c-a-t, but the dunce cap and corner went out years ago. 5. Wesometimes take for granted what took years to build. 6. We’ve come a long way from this scene to present day. . .but hearts still come back home to Mom and Dad. 7. We’re speeding right along in the old Chevy. 8. . . .and we really climaxed it in the old Model T. 9. Mr. Mallory’s great strides in education still give tremendous foot- steps for the young to follow. 10. Youth still seeks the wisdom of great education-How? Why? When? 11. The family dreams come true with a father superintendent, a mother teacher, a missionary daughter, and a son who is State Commissioner of Education. 12. Home with Mom and Dad, I’m one of nine. 13. Romance was smooth sailing while cruising Lake Taneycomo. 129 School Board Meets Again It’s 12:00 at night and the lights blaze brightly at B.H.S. Who would be working at this late hour-who else but the school board! That’s right. You wouldn’t believe all the hours they put in for their community, and for what-certainly not money because they get no pay. They put in many hours of work for us. This year we asked our school board members three questions: 1. What is the most important change in Dallas County in the last 25 years? 2. What is the future of Buffalo? 3. Do you think the students have changed in the past 25 years? We the Bison Annual Staff feel they should be applauded and most of all appreciated. 130 1. When Alana Jewell and Doctor Moore talked about the students of today. He said, “The students of today are more knowledgeable than when 1 graduated from school.” 2. Miss Williams, the School Boards' secretary, puts away her files. 3. Billy Chapman talked with Mr. Mayfield and asked him the second question about the future of Buffalo. His reply was, “I think busi- ness will keep growing; and, in general, I think the future of BufTalo is good. 4. Steve Johnson and Mr. Garrison talked about changes in Dallas County. Mr. Garrison said, “progress, improvement in schools, liv- ing standards, transportation and communication are the most im- portant changes in Dallas County. 5. Mr. Morgans was asked by Rene Kreisel if he thought the students had changed in the past 25 years and he said, “I think students are pretty much the same now as they were when I was a boy, may- be a little more open with their mischief and less respectful of others, but on the whole about the same. 6. Anita Nunn talked with Mr. Viets about the important changes in Dallas County. “I think improvement of the community and school as a whole and the improvement of the building and es- pecially vo-tech are the most important changes, he said. 7. Mr. Garrison is still in style with his bib overalls. 8. Mr. Morgans faced graduation solemnly. 9. Mr. Mayfield faces the world with a smile. 10. Dale Chastain and Mr. Henderson talked about the future of Buf- falo. Mr. Henderson said, Buffalo will have some new small in- dustry, but I hope it will not become a metropolitan area. 131 Twenty Years And Proud Of It Thirty-eight years ago a young man started his teaching career in the Dallas Co. school district. Today that young man is a little older but much wiser and still a vital part of the Dal- las Co. school system. The annual staff and the students arc Eoud to salute Avera Harriman and these other teachers who vc taught 20 years or more at BHS. They have seen progress and changes in our school. We dedicate this page to those who have seen the changes, met them, and are meeting new changes each year. 132 1. Mr. Avera Harriman says, “Math really changes over 38 years.” 2.

Record holders for the most years taught here include Mr. Avera Harriman, Mr. Pruitt Miller, Mrs. Marie Gregg, Mrs. Sally Shantz. and Mr. Joe Atteberry, who have all taught over 20 years. A long time teacher at Buffa- lo, Mr. Harriman, has seen the results of his teachings through Mrs. Shantz, a former stu- dent of his. These former graduates should know how it goes around BHS.

We Are Number One In the 1975 76 school year at the Dallas County R-l School Dis- trict, there were many new faces, not only the faces of new pupils but the faces of teachers as well. There were 24 new teachers hired by the school system this year. Ten were teaching for their very first time while 12 were just teaching for the very first time with this school sys- tem. As the year wore on, the faces of teachers became less foreign to students and the teachers became more familar with their students. 140 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Whether it be parents, friends, or teachers we never stop learning from those around us. What wc learn we carry with us throughout life, constantly adding just a little bit more. Our most important years arc our years of schooling. We begin school know- ing very little. Then, each day, we experience new things and learn just a little more. When we walk out with that diploma in our hand, we know that we have come a long way from that first cry; but we must also remember there is much more to learn in the course of our lives. Teachers are like students. When they begin teaching, they begin to learn. They learn how to tell the good methods from the bad. They learn which techniques are best and which should be forgot. These teachers who have taught from 2 to 9 years could no longer be considered new; yet they, too, will continue to learn and change. They know what they want to do and are on their way to making teaching a lifetime career. 142 1. “Is that so?” says grade school special reading teacher, Mrs. Evelyn Peterie who has taught for 7 years. 2. Mrs. Fran Chandler, who is in her 3rd year of teaching, serves milk and cookies at Saturday 4 year old school. 3.

It takes the efforts of all the people, the teachers, the students, the maintenance crew, the administration, the secretaries, and many others. If it were not for the efforts of the cooks, secretaries, and janitors the school would not run any more effectively than if we did not have an administration and teachers. No ladder is any stronger than its weakest rung, and it is certainly true that without the efforts of these people this school could not run. 146 1.
