Ernest Marjorie Marcin FRANK lNIAi.RSH President N. Gwynne Dodson john Hill Eleanor Maurer 10 DM School Directors The Board of School Directors of the city of Altoona is directly responsible for the operation of one of the city's biggest busi- nesses - schools. The Altoona schools em- ploy 641 professional and non-professional employees and have an annual payroll of close to 352,300,000 This year the School Board continued the public kindergartens and saw the opening of the annex to the Pleasant Valley School. Within our own building all class rooms and offices were redecorated and modern type fluorescent light fixtures installed at a cost of approximately 830,000 In the fall of 1954 Mr. Frank Marsh was elected president to succeed Mr. Paul Reynolds, and Mr. Norman Ernest was ap- pointed to finish out the term of Mr. David Getz, who died after serving about a year of his term. Paul R. Reynolds - Hoy F. Thompson INISTRAT The Superintendent Graduation from high school marks a milestone in your life. As you go out to pursue your lives in fields of further education, in business, in indus- try, in marriage, in military service, or in what- ever occupation you choose, you will find that the things that are known as the old-fashioned virtues are the things that will provide for you a life of peace and hope. What are the old-fashioned virtues? They are the things that permit us to live in peace with ourselves and with other people, that provide rewards of a spiritual, moral, and material nature. They are such simple things as intellectual hon- esty, courtesy, courage, humility, common sense, hard work, ambition, loyalty to family, friends and country, orderly minds, the fulfillment of duty, consideration for other people -the Gold- en Rule-the Sermon on the Mount. All the progress made in the sciences, in the arts, in the techniques of business and industry, and in those things which provide a higher standard of ma- terial living can be mastered and enjoyed and profitably utilized only by those persons who practice the old-fashioned virtues.

THE SENATE 'IR-rry fllznrlw Under the capable direction of Mr. Ion Yon, the twenty-five members of the Senate, which is the student governing body of our school, decor- ated Christmas trees and arranged for the Col- lege Conference and the sale of Activities Tic- kets, among numerous other activities. As Presi- dent Terry Clarke attended the Pennsylvania Student Council Association in Abington, Penn- sylvania, where he was elected State Secretary of the Association. This means Altoona will be represented at the National Convention in Phila- delphia during the month of June. The Senate sponsored mauv fine assemblies, among them being the Faculty Talent Show and ihe Student Talent Show, from which the pro- ceeds were divided between the Horseshoe and the Student Activities Fund. They also selected the paid assemblies for next year. Such timely and varied home room programs as the ones on manners, fire prevention. school spirit, school clubs, boy-girl relationships were planned in detail by this hard-working group. 92 HOME ROOM REPRESENTATIVES Frequently during the third period the home room representatives made trips to the Senate olliee to carry out their duties in the financial matters of the school. These students were responsible for col- lecting the money for the Activities Tickets, Horseshoe payments, and student talent shows. Representatives, who were elected by their fellow home room members, also con- ducted home room programs. One of the outstanding home room discussion pro- grams of the year concerned ways to im- prove the school. The student Senate acted on the many suggestions and tried to in- corporate many of the useful ones into school policies. The group met quarterly under the guid- ance of Mr. John Yon for discussion and aid in directing the home room programs.

The yearis work for the Horseshoe included the assembling of the evidence produced through this candid camera. The staff pried into the inner lives of the ,55 graduates to complete the individual personality sketches. They invaded the secret quarters of the school clubs and or- ganizations to reveal even the camouflaged activities. They endeavored to present these Write-ups in a form Which would bring back pleasant memories and the typ- ists were given the privilege of pecking out the original manuscripts for this - the fiftieth edition of the yearbook.

Bowman 1955 CUMPASS For the sophomore coming into high school, the Compass is one of his most valu- able possessions. In the Compass are des- cribed the rules and regulations of the school, the faculty and students. Through the efforts of the sophomores, juniors and seniors who compose this staff, under the editorship of Pat Kepner and the sponsorship of Miss Mabel Bowman, tl much-needed explanation of Altoona Senior High and its standards are made available through the Compass. WVithout the Compass, our sophomores would be more bewildered than they seem to be upon entering high school. The Com- pass furnishes floor plans of the building. intramural sports information. subjects and credits required by each grade. The Compass staff works hard to keep this book up to date. It reviews the general rules and regulations of the students. The Compass is an aid to all students who are passing through A.H.S. i11to the future.

The play was centered around a dance to be presented in the high school gym. Miss Brooks, played by Rebecca Hill, had her heart set on going to a dance with the football coach, played by Walter Dickey. De- spite the fact that the committee went over the budget. the principal fell through the decorations, and the football coach sprained his ankle. everything came out all right the night of the dance.

FELLCWSHIP CLUB Under the leadership of Miss Sarah Duncan the Fellowship Club met every other Thursday through- out the school year. They engaged speakers from several local churches and mission boards. On the weeks when no regular meeting was held, the group met in 229 to learn how to operate a lithograph machine. During the Christmas season, the group went up- town to sing carols and afterwards went to the Eastern headquarters of Gospel Recordings for a party.

Officers of the F.T.A. were Tom Foose, presi- Lientg Don Craine, vice-presidentg and Beverly Cut- shall, secretary. Nl College Club members inspect scholarship material. COLLEGE CLUB The College Club is organized for the benefit of those students who wish to enter college, to give them information concerning the various colleges, to give scholarship information, and to help students prepare for and select a suitable college. lnasmuch as the per- centage of graduates who go to college from this school is sometimes as high as 20 per cent of the gradu- ating class, this organization renders a substantial service. The 150 members, all seniors, met about every six weeks to listen to Dr. A. Bruce Denniston, Mr. Edgar Brooks, and officers from several colleges, including the Altoona Undergraduate Center. Mr. Timothy Roberts, one of the sponsors, was also able to procure a fihn of Pennsylvania State University for a spring showing. Under the direction of Mr. Harold Stong the scholar- ship committee distributed information concerning procedures relative to College Board Examinations and the methods of applying for scholarships. Through the cooperation of the principal's office the students interested in going to college were given the American Council of Education Psychological Examination, from which their percentile rank could be determined for college entrance. Dr. Ilugh Black and Mrs. Ruby Crumm were ap- pointed as scholarship advisors for the students in- terested in scholarship aid. Over 150 scholarships were available to qualified high school students last year, the amount of money provided by the scholarship de- pending on the financial situation of the student and the terms under which the scholarship was established. Approximately 50 scholarships were procured by stu- dents in the Altoona Iligh School last year. 118 Mr. Isenberg addresses fixture pedagogs.

During the year members elected as officers Cloyd Buck, president, Paul Augustine, vice-president, Robert Dionis, secre- tary, Edward Dailey, treasurer, and Joyce Kushner, publicity secretary to promote club activities. The ideal of the club is to have students become more interested in skillful and safe driving than in show-off driving. The members of the group learn the proper attitudes that should be taken when travel- ing on the highway or city street. In the spring the group got together and practiced many skill tests, including backing, parking in measured areas, and driver reactions, in preparation for the Iaycee's Rodeo. The club met once a month for movies, speakers, and discussions, all of which centered around safe driving and what can be done to prevent accidents. The members of this club are graduates or members of the safe-driving class. They take several hours of driveris training each week for one semester under the supervision of Mr. Archie Umstead. The students practice on a driving course operated by the State Police at Hollidaysburg. STREET PATROL The Street Patrol, with Mr. Frank Ghessie as faculty sponsor, cooperated with the school guards throughout the school year. The main duty of the partol is to keep students off the streets until the signal to cross is given by the school guard. Business meetings are held ence a month. The patrol has been the biggest factor ln preventing accidents in crossing the streets near the school. This year there were no accidents, thanks to the efficiency of the ten members of this club. 1:21 Future Business Leaders undergo initiation - VVhile their colleagues turn out copy on the mimeograph VARSITY "A" Altoona lliglfs "l lall of Fame", the Varsity "A" Club, honors letter winners annually as a part of a plan to increase active participation in sports and to support the athletic program.

Trained hy Mrs. Helen Davis, these lassies were the personification of school spirit, lend- ing color and enthusiasm to every event at which they performed. The squad consisted of eight melnhers, who put in many hours of practice after school, not only before the season stated, but at inter- vals all through the various seasons. These girls were selected on the basis of citizenship. scholarship, and personality factors so that at all times they reflected credit on their Alma Mater. 139 i Dean competing in District Six broad jump.

In March at the Tri-State Coaches meet he soared over the bar in the high jump at an even six feet, but that wasnit good enough. In May at the WPIAL relays he eclipsed a 15- year mark set by Byron Crozier in 1939 by leaping to a new record of 6 feet ZV2 inches. At the animal District Six meet on May 22 he led his team to victory with new records of 19.7 seconds in the 180 low hurdles and 14.4 seconds in the 120 high hurdles. When Altoona High traveled to State Col- lege for the State PIAA championships on May 29, all hopes rode on the slender shoulders of Senior Bob Russell, and he did not disappoint his rooters. All he did was capture first place in the high hurdles, take second in the lows, and tie for second place in the high jump. This, coupled with a second place in the one- mile relay, enabled Coach Adams' thinclads to emerge with top team honors of 15V2 points in the meet. Bob Russell has written his name high in the annals of A.H.S. track leaving a flock ot records for future Bob Bussells to shoot at.
