Arlington 100 years of. . . one of the fastest growing cities in the country. The small com- munity of Arlington began as a result of the railroad in 1876 but was destined to grow. In 1930, the population had grown to 5,000 (not counting cows ond chickens!) And from 1960-1970, the number of inhabitants had doubled. Now, in 1976, and with a population of over 125,000, Arlington has gained recog- nition for its unique industry, recreational attractions, afd cultural activities. The first high sdf£«l was ' built in 1902 and behind where WyjMKafeteria is today. Life at school was a little different then. Rules were more strict for students; teachers had some tough regu- lations, too. No teacher could be married, female teachers could not dress in bright colors or use lipstick, and they had to wear at least two petticoats! Rude or vulgar language was forbidden for both students and teachers. Classes were much smaller, too. In 1928, there were 39 seniors to graduate. Like dress lengths, prices weren’t so high back then either. For 50 cents, a student could buy a season ticket to see five foot- ball games and for 9 cents, a person could see a picture show. AHS, as we know it now, opened in 1956. Arlington is a city to be proud of and celebrating its first 100 years made us a little more proud. AHS in 1928 on Cooper Street.
