DEDICATION In 1959 a new and refreshing person- ality appeared on our campus. Her ar- rival in town, driving a tiny puddle jumper loaded down with double-barreled shotguns and flyrods, marked the begin- ning of a friendly relationship with her students that becomes deeper each year. Her friends soon learned to look for her at all the games. Wrapped in a coonskin coat-Vintage 1925- and surrounded by students, she is an enthusiastic rooter for the Hounds. In the classroom, her sparkling sense of humor enlivens the dullest subject. Peering over a pair of Ben Franklin glasses, she makes the figures of literature come striding off the page, Vibrating with life. A student in need of a friendly helping hand finds that she is warm-heartedly interested in his problems. Her generosity and loyalty know no limits. 1n grateful recognition of an out- standing teacher and friend we affection- ately dedicate this book to MISS SARAH F. ROWLETT Varying moods. Book reports - Rowlett style.

Onward! OF MANY TYPICAL DAYS AT A.H.S. With the early morning sun painting shadow pictures on the wall, only the cars of a few early-rising teachers give a hint of animation to the campus. As busses, cars, and motor-cycles dis- charge their loads, the male half of the student body stands warming itself in the sun. Bells jar the quiet, and a look of purpose comes over the campus as boys and girls head f6r work. Noon brings the lunch time scramble, with many cars raising the dust as their owners head for downtown. As the day wears on, students welcome a Change as physical activity makes a break in the sedentary routine. With the sound of the final bell, the snorting, lumbering yellow busses come charging up to gather in their quota of students headed for home. As night falls the empty corridors wait silently for another day of energetic life.
