Though the Maroons went home victorious, the team ' s spirit and determination added a special highlight to the events. A car cara- van was also held. The dance, with an ap- propriate theme A Touch of Gold, was held in the Tech cafeteria on Oct. 11. The music was supplied by Don Hoy ' s Orches- tra and the entire dance was entertaining.

The three twirlers are Captain Pam Metten, Linda Grinstead, and Fern Hudson. This year, the majorettes have added something new: marchers. They are Nancy Davidson, Chris Hull, Paula Hayes, and Billie Jo Paul. The plan is for them to do routines to correspond with the twirlers. To distinguish the march- ers from the majorettes, the majorettes wear blue vests with gold lettering and the marchers wear gold vests with blue lettering. T Majorette captain. Pam Metten, salutes the crowd. Let ' s all circle around. Lots of work goes into a game by the n ajorettes. 19 Flag Twirlers add flare to half time festivities Flag twirlers of Des Moines Tech were a colorful part of the band this year. A flag twirler must devote a lot of time and effort to obtain perfection and accuracy. March- ing in front of the band creates admiration for the school ' s performance at half time entertainment. Bobbie Holt helps prepare the flag twirlers for next year. First row: Raeone Buckman, Bobbie Holt. Second row: Vicky Caine. Cheryl Bolden. Another year of flag twirling comes to an end.

ATA 99 lOO Faculty They Try Harder To Fill the Gap We at Tech are lucky to have a faculty that is concerned about today ' s youth ... a fac- tor so important in the communicating of youth to adults. Communicating is so im- portant in the learning process.

School Board Abolishes Dress Code- Students React. An issue that has been questioned so much in the past is just exactly what a student is allowed to wear to school. The School Board has decided that a student is allowed to wear his hair and clothes as he wished as long as it does not distract others from their studies. So the styles here at Tech have taken on many views. For the girls, slacks, pantsuits, shorts and maxi skirts. For the boys, shirts not tucked in, no socks, T-shirts, and even an occasional dress or skirt in protest of the girls slacks. Members of the Board of Directors left to right: Mrs. Kate Goldman.

With new hope and a few doubts, they were unaware they were destined to spend the best three years of their life here. Some became athletes, cheerleaders, members of drill team, most proved to be successful in their new core areas, and all of them grew up a little. Their first year, perhaps their best, is gradually becoming a part of the past and the Class of 72 shall return next fall hop- ing that their next two years at Tech will be all that their first has been. As a very active member of the band, Gary Hagan proved to be a most useful drummer. Not all of the sophomores can get used to the noise and disorder of the lunchroom so they search elsewhere for dining area. 146 Li James Ackley David Adair Ron Akselis Sid Alcox Mary Alexander Tom Aller Doug Althaus Larry Anderson Richard Anderson Dennis Angell Eugene Aswagen Laura Austin Richard Baker Ed Baldwin Jerry Ball Bob Barnes Mike Barrett Renaldo Bartholomew Jim Beck LeRoy Bell Dave Bender Rick Bennett Kenneth Bennett Greg Brinkley Linda Bird Dennis Bishop Gary Black Ram Black Bob Blair Louis Blake Cindy Blanchard Vernon Bolden Roger Bowers Rhonda Boylan Steve Boylan David Bradley Nancy Brady Bruce Brassfield Georgina Brewer Steven Bronnenberg Beverly Brown Cheryl Brown Donna Brown Isaac Brown Randy Brown Robert Brown Sheila Brown Wendell Brown Stanley Browne Mark Brozek Roxanne Bruce Vickie Brugioni Karen Buckman Virginia Bundy Alan Burnett Ines Burriola Cindy Burris Mike Burris Sandra Bush Shelly Butler Allen Butts Rod Butts Ron Calvert Mark Campos Johnny Caradini Bill Carman Debbie Carr Debbie J.

The class of ' 71 is equipped with the quality of leadership and will soon be able to put that leadership to work for themselves and Tech High. Joe Shoemaker entertains at the Homecoming sock hop. Marc Inga displays the enthusiasm he possesses for classes. k Chris Hall finishes her lunch while Paula Hayes pos- es for a picture. 160 162 President Steve Christensen Vice President Frances Lenan Class Officers Head Executive Board This year ' s senior class elections were held in January and the results show Steve Christensen as the standing president, Frances Lenan as Vice President, Betty Fisher as Secretary and Sue Jean as Trea- surer with her assistant Treasurer Roger Yancy. The Officers were chosen by the senior class in the January elections. They were to take on the responsibility of orga- nizing the senior activities and projects; senior informal prom, breakfast, banquet, class day and the class project. All of the activities require a great amount of donated time and effort by willing seniors who were determined to make each a success and ac- complished their desires. Secretary Betty Fisher Treasurer Sue Jean 164 1970 Executive Board 165 SENIORS Ready To Face The Future Ahead Three years faded into the past, And as individuals we emerged; A new decade began with dreams to be fulfilled and futures to be built. Shaped into young men and women, We are ready to face the world outside; Willing to stand up for our ideals, Anxious to achieve. Proud of our accomplish- ments, Aware of our failures. Memories will linger long after. Devotion will be imprinted in our hearts. Old Tech shall always be a part of us. We are ready, we are willing. We Will Try Harder...

The classes are long, hot, and tiring, but these determined students work as hard during these sum- mer months as they would during a regu- lar Tech semester.
