DIARY OF THE SCHOOL September 3. Howdy Toots , my friend. School started to- day and was I busy trying to get a glimpse of the new teachers we have. I heard that they practice a new system-NO nightwork. October 11. Girl Reserves installed new members today. Did they look spiffy in those white dresses and blue ties? Course the boys wished they could belong to the organization, but boys just can't be Reserves. October 2 1. National Honor Society-five Seniors in long robes-admitted twelve more Seniors to its chapter. Hope I get in the next time because it's my last chance. November 1 1. Saw All For the Love of a Woman in as- sembly this morning. Mr. I-Iunter's Junior Dra- matic Clubs presented it. The spirit of Thanksgiv- ing overcame the thoughts of vacation after that play. November 28. Having devoured my share of the Thanksgiving Feast, I went to the Dunbar game. I missed one touchdown 'cause the kids in front of me couldn't take it -the rainstorm-and I couldn't see over or under their umbrella. Score: I3-o our favor. December 9. Miss Kline's famous tap-dancing program came off this morning. Every dance was a thrill from the dignified top-hats to the funny clowns. December 11. The Senior class should run smoothly under the administration of its new officers: President, Bet- ter late than never -Ray Scott: Vice President, from Coker editor to bass singer, Edgar Wood: and Secretary, ever-smiling Dorothy Peterson. December 13. ' Black Friday! Mr. Wright deliberately smashes a mirror in my chemistry class. Miss Nies and Miss Mathias push The Ghost Train -the Junior Class Play-off. But I still think I shouldn't walk under ladders on Friday the thirteenth. December 16. A most impressive play, Why the Chimes Rang , was given in assembly this moming under the direction of Miss Margaret Bane. There isn't a student who wouldn't be hospitable to an old woman after seeing that play. December zo. School's out for Christmas vacation. Now I can run up the stairs at home without getting one of Mr. Botany john Lewis' tickets for speeding. January 24. The small, inexperienced, green Coker basket- ball team defeated Uniontown tonight. Why? Our boys, out of politness, offered some competition from section ten. January 25. Have we been fortunate these last three days? Just the teachers had to go to school Cinstitutel when the mercury was ten below, below, below-o- ow. However, the birds in our community didn't starve because the Boys' Fish and Game Club re- membered them with seeds and other foods. YEAR February 14. Valentine's Day. Mr. Cook's Senior Dramatic Club presents appropriate play, Who Kissed Bar- bara? Janie Port, as Barbara, certainly was alarm- ed :tbout being kissed by an unknown. February 2 I. New dresses and suits prevail in Senior Class as this is our Color Day. I haven't told you yet, but our colors are violet and gold: the flower is the yellow daisy-he loves me, he loves me not. Senior boys' quartet makes a big hit with its per- fect harmony. February 26. Real art was displayed in assembly this morn- ing. Miss Brickman and Miss Graham worked out a series of living pictures, accompanied by approp- riate readings and music. In fact, the portraits were so accurate that we couldn't recognize our schoolmates in them. March 13. Coker debating team becomes proud possessor of the Snyder loving cup as it scores a double vic- tory over Perry Township High School. March 18. Many people will remember this day and the sadness and destruction brought about by the floods yesterday. A number of our students were not able to come to school as the trains couldn't get through. Those people living on the West side, at Dawson, Smithton, and Banning were most affected. In many cases they were rescued from their homes in row boats. March 2 7. More laurels for good old C. H. S. Four coun- ty forensic titles were captured by four Connclls- ville boys:-piano, Edward McGill: violin, William Stevens: trumpet, jack Younkin: and extemporane- ous speaking, Ray Scott. April 3. Music rings through my ears 'til I can't sleep. Yes, I went to the operetta, Pepita , tonight. Dra- matic ability, clever dances, and colorful costumes supported the music, making it a fine production. April 14. Is C. H. S. proud of its new band? Why- that's the talk of the school! May 1. just came home from Freshman class play. Oh Kay. Under the direction of Miss Nies and Miss Neilson, the Freshies showed remarkable tal- ent in their comedy. Thousands of dollars worth of jewels, lights off, telephone messages-and the Black Terror prevailed during the evening. May 7. Yes, a Mummy got the mumps in the Sopho- more class play. A varied cast of characters-from an Englishman to a Westem Girl, with the spon- sors, Miss Mathias and Miss Nies, gave the pro- duction. May 15. W Off to the printer. No time to report Senior activities. Last Coker for the year out today. Sen- ior Day, Class Day, and Commencement ahead.
