Picture Of Ohe Present Reflection Of Past Each year it becomes the responsibility of a new EAGLE staff to compile a yearbook which will capture those special moments that occur only once but are not soon to be forgotten. It's a tremendous responsibility—but the efforts exerted now will in the future help bring to mind a memory, help someone to recall a name, or illuminate a face that through the years has changed. In this publication, it is our intention to arrange pictures of all those who have been enrolled, employed, or closely associated with our school, as well as illustrate and explain the many events which embodied our 1968-69 school year. The co-operation received by the staff has been excellent. The size of our yearbook has in- creased due to the generous response of our advertisers and subscribers. We appreciate their confidence. We also wish to acknowledge the services of Mrs. Susan Curtman, who gave of her time to proofread each page of this publication. We have faithfully completed our task, and we hope that the '69 EAGLE meets with your ap- proval . The EAGLE Staff Mr. and Mrs. Page R. Pendleton have dedi- cated 20 years of their life to serving Ash- land—both the school and the community. During their years at Ashland, Mr. Pendle- ton has been superintendent of schools while Mrs. Pendleton has served as book- keeper, first for the entire school and la- ter, as the system grew, for the junior high and senior high. During their first year here, Mrs. Pendleton was also a classroom teacher for half a day. Soon after the Pendletons came to Ashland the elementary building was constructed. Several years later an addition was added, bringing the building to its present size. Were it not for Mr. Pendleton, the new sen- ior high building, of which we are all so proud, might still be in the planning stage. Under his guidance the school has more than tripled its size since 1950. Any time a student enters the senior high office, a friendly greeting from Mrs. Pen- dleton awaits him. Her job has not been easy and it is one that many people tend to overlook. Now after 20 years of service, Mr. and Mrs. Pendleton are going to retire from the Ashland School system. We hope they will take with them many fond memories of their years at AHS. Jn Appreciation John Pauley, on behalf of the student body, proudly presents the Pendeltons with a nlao,1P Three years ago a pert, little brunette entered the teaching profession at Ashland. Her abili- ty as both a teacher and friend has endeared her to all who have known her and worked with her. Although she is our friend, she is still our teacher and because of this she earns and receives the respect of both students and facul- ty. As the sponsor of the yearbook, she has given up many hours of her time to work with us. She is always willing to write body copy, type copy sheets or do any other job that needs to be done. Many times she has taken staff mem- bers to Columbia or Jefferson City to get ad- vertisements, take pictures, or talk with our studio photographer. No matter how busy she is, she can always find time to listen to the staff's problems and to offer advice. We have often failed to thank her for all she has done for us, but we hope that this, in some small way, helps to tell her how we feel. Thank you, Miss Lenzini, for everything. Ju Appreciation One of the most dedicated teachers at Ashland is a member of our elementary faculty. As a second grade teacher, Mrs. Ward works pa- tiently and diligently with her pupils, helping them learn the many subjects they must mas- ter. Not only are her pupils fond of her, but she has gained a special place in the hearts of many of the high school students as well. Mrs. Ward is a very enthusiastic follower of athletics at AHS, rarely missing a game either at home or away. For her dedicated support of AHS sports, the Lettermen's Club presented her a plaque at their annual Athletic Banquet this spring. Mrs. Ward always has a ready smile and a cheery hello for everyone she meets. We hope that our appreciation for Mrs. Ward and all that she has done for us is in some way realized by giving her this recognition which she truly de- serves. 10 School Board members—C. L. Richardson, Robert E. Sappington, Robert C. Short, Joe N. Gilpin, Derwood Garrett, Max Bowden, and Clifford Nahler—prepare to undertake the problems of the 1968-69 school year. Hoard of education Kenneth Mountjoy and Mitchell Martin, new school board members, talk with Mr. Seward, who will become Ashland’s superintendent next year. Leaving the AHS school system at the end of this year are Derwood Garrett, Page Pendleton, and Joe Gilpin. Although Mr. Pendleton's job as Su- perintendent keeps him very busy, he still finds time to discuss prob- lems with students and faculty, and supervise a study hall. His office business includes work- ing on plans for a new school addi- tion, talking to reporters, salesmen and interested citizens, and the gen- eral correspondence that is so im- portant in maintaining the school. An avid sports fan, Mr. Pendleton talks with Coach about an upcoming game. Superintendent and See re tan Mrs. Lora Jones is always ready to lend a helping hand with the paper work done in the office. The school system would be lost without Mrs. Pansa Pendleton's ability to keep up the book- 13 keeping and secretarial work. Senior High Principal In his eight years at AHS, Mr. Donald Jones has contributed in many ways. This year he has served as Senior High principal, driver education instructor, Senior class and Student Council spon- sor, and friend and counselor to all stu- dents. Because of his resignation, Mr. Jones' familiar face will not be seen in the halls of Ashland next year, but we send with him our best wishes for success. He has worked faithfully for and with the students at Ashland. Thank you, Mr. Jones. junior .High Principal As Junior High principal at Ashland, Mr. Zike has many duties. During basket- ball season Mr. Zike is coach for the Junior High boys' basketball team and has helped them develop habits which contributed to the success of the team. Mr. Zike also helps develop good study habits as he supervises two study halls a day. 14 As principal of the elementary school, Mrs. Esther Lewis has worked industri- ously toward educating the younger chil- dren of this school. She has kept student records and has acted as a mediator be- tween the parents and teachers. This year marks the end of Mrs. Lewis's service at Ashland. Her understanding will be missed in the years to come. Element ary Principal and Secretary Mrs. Wren and Mrs. Lewis work closely to keep all elementary records neat and accurate. Mrs. Jennie Wren's duties as elementary secretary are numerous. She fills her job capably, as she takes care of lunch money and elementary cor- respondence. MRS.

The program opened with an orig- inal rendition on Spring to the tune of Moon River , sung by the Girls' Sextet. The Junior Class presented their version of Laugh-In and the Student Council im- personated the teachers. It was a colorful, noisy, happy night which was all that was necessary for a wonderful party.

The poster committee works hard to prepare ad- vertisements from the local merchants for the parade. .Happiness is... The Homecoming Parade of 1969 will be remembered as the one that never was . Bad weather forced the cancellation of the annual parade and pep rally. Floats were judged as planned, but the Juniors' third place float was so badly damaged by the wind, that we were unable to get a picture of it. This cancellation, how- ever, did not hinder the excitement of Homecoming 1969. The administration enjoys a glass of punch as they watch the dance.

One of the many island guests Is es- corted to his table by Cherri Parris. Prom 1969 As always, Prom 1969 started with an abundance of enthusiasm and hard work. The mural, which had to be hand drawn and painted, created another challenge to the builders. Great care and patience was taken with the mounting of the 60 foot paper. The ceiling was yet another task designed to take up valuable time, and at midnight the night before Prom the Jun- iors were still hard at work with the decorations. The hard work paid off as the Prom was a big suc- cess for all involved. The band, Green Mourning , was also enjoyed. Their psychedelic lights added a brilliant luster to the sur- rounding landscape of the island, and their music cre- ated an enjoyable atmosphere. Sharon Nichols and Jimmy Pauley agree that serving at Prom Is not an easy job. Some of the guests pause to rest and watch other couples dances.________________________________ Mrs. Curtman stops to discuss the decorations with a few of the Senior girls.

Class representatives listen to discussion on the theme for the All-School Party. With the help of two fellow seniors, Johnny counts the ballots cast In the Mr. and Miss AHS election. To the children, a visit from Santa Claus was the highlight of the Stu- dent Council sponsored Christmas party. One of Johnny's many duties is to preside over Student Council meetings. To start the year off on the right foot, the Student Council had handbooks printed which outlined the rules and regulations for all school sponsored organizations. As the year progressed, they were involved in many plans including the Christmas party. Homecoming, and the All-School party. Along with the fun of being on the Council came the responsibility of seeing that these events ran smoothly. Now as the year is over, the Council can look back and see the many goals reached and achievements made. Students cast their ballots for Student Body Pre- sident at one of the all-school elections. As Student Council secretary, Nancy is required to take notes at all Council meetings. David Sappington gives his winning bid for 47 1969-1970 Student Body President.

They began their money- making projects with a bake sale and later sold cookbooks. The funds financed a trip to St. Louis. At Christmas they made a fruit basket, took it to Ramm's Rest Home, and sang Christmas carols there. Following that, they went back to the school and had a party, complete with a visit from Santa Claus.

Cettemien ’s Club Lettermen's Club is an organization for stu- dents who have lettered in either baseball or basketball. The organi- zation was first started in 1967 by Jay Farris, the sponsor. This year, besides the annual athletic banquet honoring outstanding sports stars, the club sponsored a car wash and a popularity contest. Come on, don't be shy, tell me your favorite player.

Typing bod}' copy is a task often given to Miss Lenzini. Farron and Carl glue pictures down to complete a page. Lena and Mary Ann discuss body copy for one of the many pages In the EAGLE. The EAGLE staff works hard to meet their deadline. Farron learns from the experience of Mary Everyone enjoys looking at pictures taken for Ann- the annual. The EAGLE staff is one of the busiest organi- zations at Ashland. The printer, who takes half the EAGLE on April 1, leaves only two months for the completion of the annual. The deadline must be met, therefore the whole staff must work hard those last weeks. The pictures are laid and body copy and captions written. All of this must be proofread to in- sure against errors which distract from the appearance of the EAGLE. After all the hard work is finished, however, the staff can look forward to the enjoyable memories they have preserved in the EAGLE'S pages. Lena shows Pam the importance of arranging a picture layout. 51 Row 1: Connie Bamer, Yvonne Robinson, Gwen Quinn, Mary Ann Bullard-President, Pam Higgins-Vice President, Nancy Hagans-Secretary, Nancy Henry-Reporter, Jerri Crane, Mrs. Susan Curtman-Advisor, Melody Quinn.

Since Honor Society was first organized, its mem- bership has grown by leaps and bounds. This year the members numbered up to thirty-nine. After each article was put to a vote of acceptance, much needed changes were made in our constitution. Each quarter a party was held. The biggest event of the year was the trip to St. Louis, where the Gateway Arch, Jefferson Memorial, and Busch Memorial Stadi- um, including the Sports Hall of Fame, were visited. All the time put into making and selling candy was for- gotten on this very enjoyable trip. At Honor Society parties we always act naturally—eat, drink, and talk—all at the same time.

A special routine by the cheerleaders adds to the Homecoming activities. Do you know what's behind every successful team? Of course, the answer is a good pep club and cheerleaders. The importance of the pep club in supporting the team is sometimes underestimated. Cheerleaders are also just as important. They spark the enthusiasm of the spectators and pep club as well as boost the morale of the team itself. Even though the players are very im- portant to the game, the spirit and support displayed by the cheerleaders and pep club can help in displaying good sportsmanship.

Working together is helpful on more com- 57 plicated projects. Mr. Wllkerson advises the boys whenever they have a problem. The F.F.A. held many activities and accomplished many goals this year. These goals included a first place at the Boone County Fair for farm mechanics and the Conserva- tion Award, which is given to only six chapters in the state. At the annual Barnwarmin', held in October, Carolyn Zum- walt was crowned queen. Early in November the F.F.A. boys took a trip to Quincy, Illinois, where the Chapter visited the Ralston Purina Company. One of their last ac- tivities was the Parent and Son Banquet, at which Dianne Koenig was chosen Chapter Sweetheart. The F.F.A. is an organization of which everyone can be proud. It creates leadership and co-operation among all who come in contact with it. Clint Benedict pauses for a moment's breather from his F.F.A. project.

Baseball Early practice and good teamwork paid off as the Eagles won first place in the Sturgeon Tournament. Under the leadership of Coach Jay Farris, the team made victory after victory, losing only one game during the entire season. In spite of the fact that six games were rained out, the Ashland Eagles had a successful year with a 10-1 record and are looking forward to another season. 62 Coach takes time out from chalking the field to talk with Denny Burkett. Three important factors in a ball game: the pither, the catcher and the coach. As victory becomes inevitable, the boys look over the scorebook. The team watches as the game gets underway. One graceful swoop and first baseman Johnny Pauley has the ball.

Varsity ijirls' Basketball The Varsity Girls' team was composed of four- teen members with five returning letter men, only one of which was a returning starter. De- spite this lack of experience, the girls managed to end their season with an 8-10 record. They faced many tough opponents but this did not dampen their spirits as they entered each game determined to do their best. One of the high- lights of the season was defeating Alumni at Homecoming, 38-30. 65 Well girls, you've done it again. Nancy Hagans ups her percentage as she shoots another free throw.

Cjirls' ‘Junior.High The opposing team anxiously awaits a rebound which doesn’t come. The junior high force was divided into two camps this year. The recruits, or sev- enth and eighth graders comprised the younger team, while the seasoned freshmen made up the other half. These girls have learned the value of teamwork and sports- manship, qualities which will always re- main an asset. A radiant team of junior high girls accept the third place trophy in the annual Ashland Junior High Tournament. Despite interference from the defense, Donna Smith completes her shot. 75 Senior Class.History In the fall of 1965, the Seniors of 1969 entered the halls of AHS as Freshmen, Fifty-three strong, we were unsure of what was expected of us, but we were willing to learn. To guide us through our freshman year we chose John- ny Pauley—President, Mike Gilmore—Vice President, Sharon Brune—Secretary, Debbie Wren—Treasurer, and John Pat Smith—Stu- dent Council Representative to be our class officers. Our class sponsors were Mrs. Sarah Middleton and Mr. Robert Hood, and we chose blue and gold as our class colors. The FFA boys chose Debbie Wren to represent us at Barnwarmin' and Yvonne Robinson was elected by the class to be our Homecoming candidate. Our Mr. and Miss AHS candidates that year were Dick Tracy and Nancy Glascock. Because of lack of funds, we voted to have our class party in the spring. We had planned to have it at Cedar Creek, but because of rain we held it at school. Homecoming was a big event and had as its theme How the West Was Won . We worked hard on our float, but the time and effort spent was well worth it as our float titled Eagles Travel to Victory won first place. We were more than a little proud to have won over our upperclassmen. In order that we could start saving toward Prom we held a talent show and sold homemade candy. At the end of our freshman year our treasury showed a balance of $233.69. Before leaving on the Senior Trip, everybody enjoys a game of volleyball at the Paul Brune home. yw Bill Anderson, alias Gerald Barnett, gets a whip- ping from his father, played by John Pauley, in one of the scenes from the senior play. Some of the Senior girls joyfully discuss some of Smile, Ralph you're the activities that will bring their senior year to on candid camera. a close. One of Miss Lenzini's tasks as senior class sponsor is to measure all the Senior girls for their caps and gowns. As Seniors, we have the honor of decorating the high school's Christmas tree. When Santa Claus visited the FHA Christmas Party, the Senior girls were among the first to greet him. As the fall of 1966 came, so did our sophomore year. We had chosen to have our class party at the Englewood Club House. Because our financial situation was a little more sta- ble than the previous year, we were able to have our party in the fall. Class officers for the year were Steve Gilmore—President, Dennis Burkett—Vice Presi- dent, Yvonne Robinson—Secretary-Treasurer, and Gwen Quinn—Student Council Repre- sentative. They, along with our sponsors, Mrs. Sharon Bullard and Mr. Charles Smith, led us through our sophomore year. Jerri Sell was chosen Barnwarmin' candidate while Gwen Quinn represented us at Home- coming. To run for the title of Mr. and Miss AHS the class picked Dennis Sapp and Connie Barner. Days Gone By was the theme of Homecoming and our float which was labeled Eagles Club Alumni won third place for us. To raise money we sold candy and later held a popularity contest at the Junior High Basket- ball Tournament. The popularity contest alone netted us over $100. We were on our way toward financing a prom. As sophomores some members of our class were chosen to serve at the Junior-Senior Ban- quet. This experience was a new one and one not to be soon forgotten. After May Fete, the Senior girls gather in the hall to visit with friends and relatives. Soon after our junior year began, we moved to new sur- roundings—a brand new senior high building which had been several years in the planning and many months in the build- ing. As class officers we chose Gerald Barnett—President, Rex Taggart—Vice President, Sharon Brune—Secretary, Debbie Wren—Treasurer, and Dennis Sapp—Student Council Representative. To work with our class and to help us through what was to be a very busy year were Mrs. Sharon Bullard and Mrs. Katie Mazzeo, our class sponsors. For our class party, we went to the Friendship House for a wiener roast and dance. In October we presented our junior play entitled The Magic Touch. Mrs. Loretta Hunt, our director, stayed with us and helped make our play a huge success. The play along with our concession stand at the Junior High Basket- ball Tournament boosted our treasury which would soon be completely depleted by Prom expenses. Barnwarmin' was held in October and our representa- tive, Gwen Quinn, was there. Phil Greene and Nancy Glas- cock were selected by the class to be our AHS Candidates. In the spring three junior girls were chosen to take the FFA's Chapter Sweetheart test Of these three, on the bas- is of her best score, Gwen Quinn became the Ashland FFA Sweetheart for 1968-1969. As Homecoming time rolled 'round we chose Mary Ann Bullard to be our candidate. The theme for Homecoming was The Mod World of '68 and our float was titled Eagles Drag Alumni. Although Prom preparations were started months ahead of time, the time slipped up on us before we knew it. The days immediately before Prom were filled with ex- citement as we decorated the gym for our Prom entitled Romance in Venice. The colorful wall murals, street lamps, mooring poles, and fifteen foot gondola added much to the already ecstatic atmosphere. Our junior year was brought to a close with the elec- tion for 1968-69 student body president. We had chosen three capable juniors and as the votes were counted, John- ny Pauley was found to be the students' choice. The Senior girls seem to be enjoying the cream puffs prepared in their home economics class. Even the Senior boys wear somber expressions at Baccalaureate as they realize their high school years are drawing to a close. As editor of the So.Bo. Co. newspaper, Judy is required to perform many different duties in order to make sure the newspaper will come out on time. Tired Seniors return to Ashland after three fun-filled days on their Senior Trip. SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS: Nancy Glascock, Stu- dent Council Representative; Gwen Quinn, Presi- dent; Marcella Crump, Treasurer; John Pauley, Student Council Representative, Rex Taggart, Vice President; Phil Greene, Secretary. The fall of '68 brought the title of senior to 42 digni- fied students. To head the class through our last year of high school, we chose Gwen Quinn—Pr esident, Rex Tag- gart—Vice President, Phil Greene—Secretary, Marcella Crump—Treasurer and Nancy Glascock and Johnny Paul- ey—Student Council Representatives, with Miss Betty Lenzini and Donald E. Jones as sponsors. We chose to have our class party on the sandy shores of the Missouri River near Hartsburg. After a wiener roast we ate watermelon which had been well sprinkled with sand. Carolyn Zumwalt, the Seniors' candidate, reigned over Barnwarmin'. For AHS candidates we chose Ralph Higgins and Gwen Quinn who were promptly elected Mr. and Miss AHS. Magazine sales flourished under our guidance as we surpassed our goal of $2,700 and netted over $1,000 to help pay for our upcoming Senior Trip. In the spring we added to our class funds by presenting our senior play Bill's Night Out. Under Mrs. Sydell Howitt's direction we pro- duced a hilarious comedy farce. Homecoming '69 carried the title Happiness Is . . . and the second place Senior float bore the inscription Happiness Is a Victory Out of This World. Because of gloomy, dreary weather the annual Homecoming parade and pep rally were cancelled. Senior, Yvonne Robinson, graced the throne as she reigned over the Homecoming game and dance. May Fete was held on May 9, 1969, with Melvin Farris and Gwen Quinn as the May King and Queen. Crown bearers were Biff Barner and Brenda Forsee. As War March of the Priest Is played, the Seniors enter the gym for Baccalaureate services. After Commencement, valedictorians Mary Ann Bullard and Gwen Quinn look at the bul- letin board which says It's the time of the season to say 'good bye'. We’ll miss you! May 22, 1969, marked the end of high school life for the Seniors of AHS. Dr. Carl Fehrle, University assistant pro- fessor of education, delivered the address. He told us we would each be successful in life and challenged us to set goals for ourselves so that we would have to reach, stretch, and work hard to attain them. Commencement closed one phase of our life, but it also opened the way for a bright, promising future. Early on the morning of May 15 the Seniors boarded the buses and headed for Rockaway Beach and the annual Senior Trip. Lady Luck was with us as we left chilly weather behind and enjoyed a wonderful three days filled with sun- shine and fun. On Saturday morning we left Rockaway Beachl to visit Silver Dollar City. We returned to Ashland Saturday night after a glorious, fun-filled trip. Baccalaureate services were held May 18 with the Rev.

Elementary Activities Elementary activities this year were many and varied. They ranged from the usual classroom projects to annual holiday parties. Each and every student willingly and happily joined in the activities that had been planned. On these pages we have tried to show a few of the students participating in these events. Mail boxes made from paper plates make excellent valentine holders. The elementary Christmas program included special singing groups.

MISSOURI 65804 Ptions UNiveruty 9-9166 TO THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1969 I congratulate each of you for accomplishing a great step forward in molding your lives as young men and women. Your teachers' mission was to help you grow into the broadest, deepest, and most vital person possible, and in fullfilling yourself. I am convinced that you will arrive at moments of heightened insight when you see more clearly than ever before what the world is about and how you can fit into it creatively and significantly. Now that you have graduated from high school, you will either further your education or face the task of securing suitable employment. Records show that you will earn approximately $258,000 in your lifetime if you do not continue your educa- tional program. The college graduate will earn $435,000 in a lifetime. Four years of college, then, pays off at the rate, $44,250 a year - - pretty worthwhile investment. On behalf of the officers and staff of the MODERN AMERICAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, may I wish each of you much success in all your future years.
