FOREWORD With the aid of our silent little helper, Alby

the bookworm, we, the staff of the Peer, have en­deavored to paint for you, our readers, a true pic­ture of the happenings of this school year.

As time passes we believe that this volume will become more and more valuable to you and will serve its purpose in keeping fresh in mind events which took place during your carefree, happy days at A. H. s . .

It is the sincere hope of each member of the staff and the s'ponsors that this, the second volume of the Peer, will preserve for you all those fond memories of the session 1954-55.
