Threxitnrli N days of old, when knights were bold and barons held their swayw-those days long since passed have imparted to us an indelible memory. They have given us many beloved characters and, perhaps, the best known and loved is Robin Hood with his band of roving fellowmen clad in Lincoln green. ln the pages of this book, a lasting memory of Altoona High School, we have placed Robin Hood, symbolic of our life and activities in this high school. Vile have used the ballad of Robin Hood, tale of the peasant, and hope to show you in this way the life of that man endeared to us by his deeds of mercy, kindness, and daring. The knights are gone-the barons have forfeited their reign, but Robin Hood lives on in the minds and hearts of the people and on the pages of our book. Robin Hood is here again, all his merry thieves Hear a ghostly bugle-note shivering through the leaves. Calling as he used to call, faint and far away, In Sherwood, in Sherwood, about the break of day. -Noyes

Whisper to us words of pleasure, Sinking sun behind the hilltops As the dim twilight Sighs a soft ugoodinightln Softly gathers 'round our colors, To the colors waving o'er us, Dear Maroon and White. Dear Maroon and While. Night has slowly crept around us, Stars are shining bright, Waving, oh so calm and peaceful, Dear Maroon and White. We shall always sing thy praises, Work for thy successg Hail to noble Alma Mater! Hail to A. H. S.!
