Grizzly freshmen like Marvin Powell enter the doors of AHS
"on the short end of the yard stick" but by their senior year
the Grizzlies are fully grown. 4 feet 7 inch Marvin points out
that by his senior year he expects to be as tail as senior Jack
Tobiasson, six foot three inch student body president, with
out the aid of the senior bench.

Xhey do evervthing eise first

people, while not willing to do

Schools are established with

The grades that come out at
the end of the six weeks work
isn't an accurate guage of men

mechanical, docs not reflect up to the challenge accept
the cheating and fudging that jng responsibility,
too often occurs in the effort

If such things as a "devil-may-care"
