Oh, Clearfield High, dear Clearfield High Thy praise We love to sing, Our songs and cheers as victory nears Through field and hall will ring.

F rom its machine shops, vital equip- ment goes to steel mills, refractories, railroads- crushing and grinding machinery, sand mixers, moulds for silica bricks, dry-press liners, dies for fire-brick and building brick. From its refractories go many kinds of fire brick, fire clays and mortars, all of Which are essential structural materials for the linings of industrial furnaces. 9 kr G ,.

They have established a volunteer service for the Aircraft Warning and Aircraft Spotters' Stationsg they have collected victrola records and books for the armed forces. The Shaw Library, which maintains a Wide up-to-date selection of War books, has collected and shipped almost l000 books to the U. S. O. Borough citizens, mindful of Clearfield's hundreds of men in the armed forces, back them with the purchase of 375,974 Worth of war bonds per month. All-out for Victory is our home town! With its driving force on the production line and its eager response to every War call We like to believe that Clearfield is typical of war-time America. ,E 5 stslU 'l W CLEARFIELD INDUSTRIES J.

SE IUH CLASS HISTUHY FRESHMAN YEAR 1939-1940 The BIG SHOTS in Iunior High, we started off in a grand way by electing the following officers: President, Paul Klineg Vice-President, Hope Swisher: Secretary, Edward Hinkley Treasurer, Barton Thompson. In October, then, we had the annual Hallowe'en party, a gay affair. After a great deal of deliberating, the judges awarded prizes to Inez Krebs,a Gay Nineties glamour gal, and Elizabeth Fleming and Libby Hancock, who posed as old maids. Remember? Then we spent the evening hustling from room to room playing games. Queer people weren't we? For our class party, the colors were red, white and blue, since it was in honor of Lincoln's birthday. Square dancing, round dancing, bingo and other games kept all of us busy from eight to twelve. At the year's end, Award Day and Shelf Day followed in rapid succession. As the seniors of Iunior High, we sat on the shelf in order to deliver our farewell kisses to the YOUNGSTERS. From there we found our eyes searching, half eagerly, half haltingly, the door of Senior High. SOPHOMORE YEAR 1940-1941 lt seemed like retrogression, didn't it? One year the BIG SHOTS and then the next GREENIES, the lowest form of life in CHS. A few Weeks later we lost some of our shyness, however, and held our annual election, choosing the following officers President, Iim Hartsocky Vice- President, Gloria Woolridgep Secretary, Gretchen Flegal, and Historian, Nell Durst. ' At the three-class Hallowe'en party, the opener of the social season, Audi- torium Center and Auditorium Right, sophomore homerooms, carried away honors which boosted our morale. Our big party, the GOOD TIMES, one which we gave in honor of the seniors was very much of a success, at least in our opinion. Money, money every- where, even if it was bogus. Do you remember how Dick Williams initiated Donald Duck? Do you remember the line of beautiful chorus GIRLS? On Shelf Day, we took our places UNDER the balcony, and, as a result, didn't get many kisses. Oh well, the fun was plentiful and the juniors Cbless theml were generous with their handfuls of peanut butter kisses. IUNIOR YEAR 1941-1942 When the results of the September election were announced, it was found that the girls reigned supreme and would rule the boys, for Rose Lemmo was president, Marjorie Keast, vice-president: Ioann Fargo, secretary: Florence Shrock, treasurer, and Catherine Carns, historian. 45 SE lllll CLASS HISTURY The social life was officially opened by the annual Hallowe'en party. Ghosts, goblins and cornstalks gave the gym the proper atmosphere. For their clever Reluctant Dragon, Room 28 won first prize. Of course we had cider and the traditional colors to tear down later, signifying the end of the dance. The Barn Dance with wagon wheels, harness, bags of grain and straw on the floor was our exclusive class party. Lots of the girls wore cute ginghams, but the boys seemed bashful about coming in overalls, for very few dressed that way. The jitterbug contest was the highlight of the evening. Columbus Lisherelli and Ann Stauffer took first prize with the second prize going to Gretchen Flegal and her partner, Ray Grubb. In May, we played the role of hosts at the Iunior-Senior Prom. Formal, too. Didn't everyone look grand, though? This year for Shelf Day we juniors were on the receiving end. All the cheers, serpintine and kisses certainly brightened the spirits of the departing seniors and, I dare say, ours too. Well, school is over for another year and only one more year to go. lust now, however, we can concentrate on picnics and week-night dates all summer long. SENIOR YEAR l942-l943 At last we had made it! Once again We were the head people and proudly we assumed the coveted title, SENIORS. Under Mr. Bigley's supervision and with President lim I-lartsocky Vice- President Blaine Aikeyp and Secretary Gretchen Flegalp Treasurer LeDelle Turnerp and Historian Marjorie Keast as his able assistants, the class was piloted safely through the year. Cutting down on expenses this year, we substituted a three-class party for the Hallowe'en party. It was lots of fun especially when that group of boys sang, Der Fuehrer's Face. To be entertained was something new for us but not new in the school his- tory. The Sophomore-Senior Prom was a gala affair with Al Rockwell's orches- tra as the music makers. As an interesting highlight of the evening, we had a blackoutl Mr. Bigley was scurrying around trying to turn on at least one light! Of course this was a wonderful year, but all of us felt the effect of the war. A number of senior boys left for the armed services, and bond-selling slogans and posters were displayed throughout the school. Dispensing with May Day this year, we had shelf day, award day and graduation left to polish off four years of high school. We never thought we would be the sentimental graduates which other years had produced. But graduation is such a solemn affair and, while shelf day is lively and gay, we still could hardly realize that we would all have to part to begin new lives. The actual parting came on May 21, 1943. 46 JUNIUR BOB WOODEL President EMOGENE STRONG CLEO SIPE Vice President Secretary IUNE FARWELL lOHN MITCHELL Historian Treasurer JU lflll ELASS HISTORY FRESHMAN YEAR 1940-1941 When we, the class of '41, entered Iunior High for our last year there, we immediately elected lean Shirey, president: Barbara Leitzinger, vice-president, Mary lane Taylor, secretary, and George Morris, treasurer, to lead our lively freshman class. What an eventful nine months it was that followed. First there was the annual Hallowe'en party. Do you remember how Miss Daisy Thompson and Miss Marian Shaw dressed as hay stacks and had everyone guessing? ln fact, they almost Won the prize. Then came the first exciting class party at which we were allowed to dance! Miss Lidie Boutgher and Mr. Raymond Del-loft surely had an unlimited supply of patience while they were trying to teach us to move gracefully over the dance floor. To top it all, our music was supplied by a real band, the CHS dance band! ASK THE PROFESSOR, directed by Miss Wilma Meise, was the title of the operetta in which the parts were capably handled by Lucille Savelle, Ioe Bird, Phyllis McClellan, August Natoli, Nancy Wallace, Reginald Turner, Audrey Lewis, Allan McCreadie, Yvonne Beer, Alice Nupp, Emma lohnson, Barbara Leitzinger and Geraldine Craft. For twenty-three consecutive years the students of lunior High had enjoyed their annual picnic, so naturally we freshman were looking forward to that great day. However, when we awoke the morning of that longed-for occasion, a great downpour of rain brought us to the sorrowful realization that there would be no picnic that day. lust our luck! Award Day and Shelf Day brought our final year in Iunior High to a close. lean Shirey, Rosemary Geynet, Nancy Wallace, Clara Carns and Iune Farwell received scholastic awards. Geraldine Craft, Emogene Strong, August Natoli, lean Shirey and Robert Woodel were honored with citizenship certificates. As 47 UFFTEEHS 1 1 1 JUNIUH CLASS HISTUHY we were throwing kisses and confetti to our successors on Shelf Day, we were looking ahead to entering high school, but a great many of us had a feeling of deep regret at departing from good old IHS. lUN1OR YEAR 1942-1943 Entering high school with our hearts in our mouths and a queer feeling in our stomachs, we weren't so slow in getting acquainted with our new surround- ings. The all-school Hallowe'en party, under the supervision of the Student Council, was quite helpful in making us feel at home. Shortly after our first CHS party, we elected Emogene Strong to serve as president: lean Shirey, vice-president: Yvonne Beer, secretary: Robert Woodel, treasurer: and Phyllis McClellan, Historian. When Phyllis lane left school dur- ing the year, her office was filled by Alice Nupp. St. Patrick's Day was the theme of the Sophomore Sweater Sway, our own class party which was considered to be a great success. We worked up to the very last minute hanging the green and white crepe paper decorations in the gym. The most important happening of the year, however, was our first formal dance, the Sophomore-Senior Prom. We round danced under a canopy of pink, blue and white to the music of A1 Rockwell's orchestra. Russell Pentz's orchestra provided the music for the square dancing in the upper hall. Award Day brought Rosemary Geynet, lean Shirey, Sara Sturniolo, Clara Carns and Nancy Wallace scholastic awards: and lean Shirey, Clara Carns, Iune Farwell, Iohn Mitchell and Robert Woodel citizenship certificates. At the end of the Shelf Day program we rushed pell-mell from our crowded quarters in the balcony to the more dignified and roomy spaces on the first floor just vacated by those QUIET, INTELLIC-ENT t?l juniors. SOPHOMORE YEAR 1941-1942 Returning this year with a more serious determination to do our part in World War ll, we settled rapidly to the work that lay before us. Taking the place of the Ha1lowe'en party was the three-class dance, spon- sored by the Student Council. An outstanding number on the program that evening was DER FUEHRER'S FACE, sung by a group of boys with sound effects by Allen Rockwell. The class officers we chose to lead us were: Robert Woodel, president: Emogene Strong, vice-president: Cleo Sipe, secretary: Iohn Mitchell, treasurer: and Iune Farwell, historian. ' Our rings arrived late this year because of the war: however, we felt we were lucky to be able to get them, and didn't mind waiting until Ianuary.

Our first social event, the Hallowe'en party, was quite a success. in the year most of us managed to scrape up a quarter, just enough to attend our class party in February. All the fellows were bashful, but when we finally asked the girls to go with us to the party we were informed that they intended to go unescorted. Imagine! The music, furnished by the high school orchestra, was enjoyed by all, even when the wolves cut in too often. When football season rolled around, all the boys played hard, chalking up one victory, two defeats, and a tie. Award day brought scholastic honors to Raymond Robinson, Bruce Shep- herd, Carol Ann McGoey, jane Shivery and Bill Leitzinger. Citizenship awards were given to Harry Davis, Grace Cole, Lola Fletcher, jack Karchner and Archie Moore. On Iune 4, our annual Iunior High picnic, which had formerly been held at Elliot Park, was held at the Clearfield Driving Park, because of restrictions on driving. On Iune 5, the candy kisses flew, ending a most interesting school term and leaving the freshmen of l942 potential sophomores of l943. LOLA FLETCHER BRUCE SHEPHERD Later Sophomore Year 1942-1943 We entered Senior High after our vacation, a cocky but promising class. In the beginning of the year, we sophs were busy choosing a club to join. Imagine the thrill we received when we found out about the one club that the upper classmen could not join, the newly formed Drama Club. This club, under the supervision of Miss jones, presented some very interesting plays dur- ing the year not only for the sophomores but also for the juniors and seniors. A three-class party was held in November instead of the annual Hallowe'en party. It was the first party attended by the sophomores in our new home, and we enjoyed it very much, even though it did leave many of us with aching dogs, 51 BOB HOLDEN Historian P 4 SUPHUMUHE CLASS HISTORY lead us Sometime later in November we chose the following officers to through the year: President, Lee Bumgarner: Vice-President, Perry Norris: Secretary, Lola Fletcher: Treasurer, Bruce Shepherd: and Historian, Bob Holden. The war prevented us from having a sophomore party of our own, but we were proud to put our money into war bonds and stamps instead. After waiting patiently for the big event, the Sophomore-Senior Prom, we Voted to have it informal. For this Victory Prom the gym was patriotically decorated in red, white and blue. The music was by Al Rockwell's Orchestra, and when the evening was over, we sophomores felt that the seniors had had a memorable time. Our only regret is that this was the last party, and the last big event of our sophomore year. HOME ROOM 1 Seated: Palmer, Kifer, Peters, Piler, Greene, Coon, Ling, Bowers Row 2: Dixon, Young.

At times the dissimilarity of sounds is appalling. Yet more amazing is how this organization, when on display, can really do credit to our school by its performance. Worthy of the students' highest esteem, the band has served faithfully this year, marching through rain, mud and snow to cheer the team on to victory at our football games. It also furnished entertainment at various times throughout the year in assembly, playing many selections which have become favorites of the student body. Under the capable hands of the director, Harold E. Kuhns, the band gave several Sunday afternoon concerts, climaxing the year's Work with the Annual Spring Concert on May 2.

Four seniors, three juniors, two sophomores and a repre- sentative of the dance band arranged for these informal dances. Miss Lord, the adviser, Gretchen Flegal, the chairman, and the other members were kept very busy this past school year, cleaning the gym before the dances and Watching to see that only high school students attended them. Members of the alumni were invited to several of the dances, and after the basketball game With St. Francis High School, students of that school who were present Were our guests at a short dance.

Early in the fall they studied game laws and methods of trapping and hunting, par- ticularly deer hunting. With helpful information acquired from sportsmen's magazines and various pamphlets, the club members gave special reports on 'topics of interest such as the feeding and care of wild life. Early in the spring fishing became the topic of high interest and remained so for the rest of the year. With the accumulation of a great deal of knowledge, the Iunior Sportsmen's Club adjourned a successful year to put into practical use their knowledge of the out-of-doors. The Corn-pickin, Gents Boys interested in agriculture have the opportunity of learning better methods of scientific farmingas members of the Future Farmers of America, a club sponsored by Mr. McMinn. Many of the members exhibited their poultry, livestock or vegetables at the annual county fair last summer. One of their projects of the year was competing in a poultry growing contest. Carlton McCracken, of this club, placed fifth in this state project. After promoting the sale of seeds, the club purchased a fifty dollar war bond with some of the money in their treasury. Officers guiding the club were: President, Donald Petersp Vice-President, Lewis Barrett, Secretary, Ashley Carnsp Treasurer, Charles Schnarsg and Reporter, Paul Hollback. l3'n5in', lgverylindys Pnsinu' In later years the members of the Photography Club, the amateur photog- raphers of CHS, will remember with appreciation the high school days when they were developing an entertaining hobby, that of using cameras and learn- ing the process of finishing pictures. Although handicapped this year by short- ages of film as well as the necessary chemicals, the members learned much from the lectures and demonstrations given by Mr. Harris, the club's adviser. Slides, prints and movie films were also presented and explained throughout the year. Perhaps some of the students now interested in photography only as a hobby will, in the future, use it as a vocation. 77 Sharp Shooters Sounding like a miniature battle, the Rifle Club has been cracking away in the gym during their regular group practice sessions. This year, however, it seems to have been a team practically without opponents, for only one shoulder-to-shoulder match, that with Robinson Clay, was shot with Clearfield coming through as the victor, 475-468. Disproving the theory that girls can't hit the broad side of a barn, lane Hall captured the honor of being high scorer with an average ot 97 out ot a possible 100, While lack Dutton was runner-up with a score ot 96.

After many weeks of work, assisted by members of the faculty, they completed eight sleeveless sweaters, four army mufflers, two navy scarfs and a turtleneck sweater. Besides knitting and rolling yarn for the Red Cross, the girls found time to crochet, embroider and knit for themselves, making mittens, pocketbooks, scarfs, pillow tops and scuffs. This active club consisted of two groups: Group I, with 21 girls, meet- ing on Monday, and Group ll, with 23 girls, meeting on Thursday.

These and ninety-nine hundred other questions are fired at the twenty- four student helpers, formally referred to as the members of the Library Club. Under the guidance of Miss Marion Dole and the officers, Anna Catherine Read, Patsy Perry and Pauline Kephart, president, vice-president and secretary, res- pectively, they keep the library running smoothly, checking incoming and out- going books, repairing worn copies and posting timely and informative ma- terial on the many bulletin boards about the library. This year, in tune with the times, the library workers have kept the book shelves and racks filled with literature pertaining to the War. Books and pam- phlets on technical subjects, particularly aviation, and those describing the numerous branches of the armed services were especially helpful to the seven- teen and eighteen-year-old fellows. At the same time, the club has been busy providing recreational or escape reading of all types. Now Youre Talking My Language Our CHS Latin Club, Socii Latini, has been a part of extracurricular activi- ties since 1924. To add pleasure to the study of Latin is mainly the purpose of the club. Formal initiations and the election of officers were held in the fall: results of the election Were: Praeses, Richard Belly Sub-Praeses, Eleanor Flegalp Censor, Raymond Robinson: Scriba, Barbara Murray, Aedile, Robert Sabbato. During Latin week a humorous play, Blackout in Hades, was presented in assembly. After the Ieep campaign, Latin classes were busy transposing the slogans on the posters into Latin. The highlight of the year, however, was the annual Roman banquet, where the guests were served by Roman slaves. After the banquet the new members were again initiated, this time informally and somewhat painfully. Angels of Mercy Despite the ban on driving, the girls of the Red Cross-Social Service Club, advised by Miss Bailey, have managed several drives in school this year. Remember when the homeroom representatives on the Red Cross Council were conducting the Red Cross membership campaign? Remember when we stu- dents brought potatoes for the annual drive for the benefit of the Clearfield Hos- pital and the halls looked as if K. P. duty were a dire threat to anyone who broke over? Another very worthwhile project, sponsored by this club, was the collecting of money for the Clearfield County Tuberculosis Society. ln addition, in March, window displays were arranged by thirty members of the club to help in the Red Cross War Fund campaign, and the last project for the year was the Easter party held for the boys and girls of the Children's Home. Officers guiding the club were: President, Gretchen Flegal, Vice-President, Barbara Ray, and Secretary-Treasurer, Marjorie Shaffer. 81 SOPHOMORE DRAMA CLUB Seated: Hoover, Williams, Witherow, Murray, McGarvey, McCorkle, Riggs, Beard, Strayer.

Each week a one-act play was presented by several mem- bers at club meetings. When all had participated in a play, a vote was taken for the best actor and actress in each play. The winners will present a three- act play next year. At some ot the club meetings pupils entered into discus- sions based on the dramatic section oi The New York Times.

The members of the Varsity Club, under the sponsorship of the coaches of the various sports, are the supermen of CHS, each having won at least one letter in any sport recognized by the Pennsylvania Athletic Association. And those brilliant red sweaters are awarded to the boys who have participated in any sport for three years. This year the members raised money for these sweaters by selling tickets to various basketball games throughout the year. These wearers of the C chose the following officers for the year: President, Howard Peters, who upon leaving for the Marine Corps early in the spring was replaced by Vice-President, Henry Rogersg Secretary, Ben Hummel: and Treasurer, Norman Davis. 83 Archery Club A l shot an arrow into the air, It fell to earth, I knew not where. Members of the Archery Club, sponsored by Miss Hess, had better know where their arrows fall, however, for equipment is expensive and therefore valuable. The club, although small and in its infancy, boasts several better- than-average archers: Dick McDivitt, Alvin Ardrey and Paull Gilbert. In the spring, as soon as the weather permitter, members of the club began practicing outdoors. The climax of the year came when a tournament was held for those would-be Robin Hoods. Officers for the past year Were: Presi- dent, Mary Louise Callahan, Vice-President, Grace Cole: Secretary, Alvin Ardrey, and Treasurer, Barbara Meyer.

U THE BHTDTBU y A . , , lt was a bumpy road for Clearfield High's l9-42 football team, who broke A even in their gridiron conflicts, with three wins, three losses and one tie. ln ' Y 1 spite of their record, however, the scrappy Bison eleven proved no easy match 2 for their powerful rivals, who emerged victorious by slender margins. ral With Sophomore Harry lordan scoring on the second play of the game the ...L Bisons picked up an early lead over the visitors from Punxy. The Chucks ral- lied quickly to come back with a fast six-pointer, but failed in the extra-point 4 f attempt. As the last quarter got underway, Clearfield was holding grimly t their slender lead, 7 to 6, with Rogers and Peterson outstanding in the stubborfj Bison line. However, an intercepted pass by a determined Chuck gridder, re- sulting in a touchdown and conversion, gave the Chucks a last-quarter victory with a score of 13-7. Though the Bison herd invaded DuBois as the underdog, they threatened to emerge from a lively battle as the victorious eleven. With the Clearfield ends, Henry and Poole, playing a grand defensive game and fullback Bargei romping almost at will through the amazed Black and White line, the Bisor eleven left the field at intermission with a thirteen-point lead. However, a gal- Q' Q COACHES: GUTTERON SCOTT THE ETSU lant Beaver team scored easily in the third quarter as they pierced the Bison line for long gains. Still leading and still determined the Red and Black grid- ders entered the final quarter, striving desperately to hold their early lead, but the Beavers were not to be denied and scored in the few remaining minutes to deadlock the game, 13-13. An invading State eleven fell first victim to the Bison aggregation, who romped through the experienced, but light, State team for five touchdowns and four conversions. Though entirely outscored, the Little Lions were not outfought as they forced the Bisons to shake off many threats. That last quarter again! Seeking revenge from their defeat of the past year by the Bisons, the team from Papertown marched into Clearfield with nine returning lettermen. With the efficient defense built around center Peters and designed to stop Tyrone's veterans, the Bison backs gained an early score, and went into the final quarter with a 7-6 lead. But just when things were beginning to look rosy for Clearfield, that last-quarter-jinx seized the Bisons again, and the Eagles broke through for a touchdown in the few remaining minutes of the game. The l3-7 loss was another heart-breaker for the Clear- fielders to remember. ln our game with Philipsburg the Bisons got started fast with a six-pointer on the third play. The Blue and White, however, were not to be outdone as they took to an aerial offensive which resulted in a score for the Mountaineers. When they topped this off with an extra point, the Mountaineers obtained a lead which they never relinquished. As a climax to the conflict, the stubborn Bison eleven attempted a field goal as a last resort. The ball left the toe of Barger, Bison fullback, and sailed cleanly through the air, but slipped a little to the right of the uprights. The game was over a few plays later, with the Mountaineers winning with a score of 7-6. An inexperienced Osceola eleven invaded Clearfield with aerial minds. By confining themselves for the most part to the air, the Osceola team soon came through with an early score. To match this the Bisons turned sophomore Floyd Howell loose who scored twice to put the Gutteronmen in the lead. Although the Osceolians threatened many times, they did no harm and the scoreboard remained unaltered, l2-7. ln the final game of the season the Bed and Black eleven met Curwensville High, their traditional rival, on a wet field which hampered the playing of both teams considerable. The Golden Tide scored early in the game to lead the Bison herd by a 6-O score. But a determined Bison team, after recovering a fumble, romped through the Curwensville line for long gains and finally a touch- down, followed closely by another score. The Clearfield eleven bettered the Golden Tide in nearly every department and were threatening to score again as the final whistle blew with the score standing at l2-6. Leanin' on air . . .

U THE H!-XHDWUUD Due to gas rationing the Bison quintet was confined for the most part to intramural activity. However, as a participant in the physical fitness program, the Bed and Black cagers met strong teams from various schools and as a result, completed their season with the .500 average of four wins and four losses. ln the curtain-raiser the Bisons met the Golden Tide from up the river in a physical fitness game. With the lead in their hands nearly all the way, the Bed and Black quintet successfully swamped the Golden Tide, thus gaining their initial victory of the season by the score of 27-19. ln the preliminary tussle the Bison lunior Varsity downed the Curwensville Iunior Varsity by a score of l9-6. ln a return engagement the Bohlendermen invaded Curwensville with hope of doing it again and in a rough game on the Golden Tide's small floor they swamped the Tidemen to the tune of 28-16. Again in the preliminary the lunior Bisons came out,on top by a score of 22-7. A tall Blue and White quintet from Philipsburg invaded Clearfield and dropped field goals left and right to hand the Bisons their first defeat of the season by a score of 45-25. The Mountaineers led all the way as they had col- lected an early first quarter lead. 90 ln their fourth engagement of the season the Bisons met DuBois on the Beavers' home floor. The lead swayed back and forth in an unusually fast game, but in a late rally the Beavers copped points enough to take the Bisons by the slender margin of 38-35. With their record now standing at two wins and two losses, the Bisons in- vaded Philipsburg in an attempt to tip the scales. They were disappointed, however, as the Mountaineers again took their measure by a one-sided count, 43-20. An inexperienced DuBois quintet invaded Bisontown in an ef-fort to subdue the Red and Black again. Although the Bisons soon lost their early lead, they made a scrappy game of it till the final whistle, dropping their fourth game of the season by a score of 42-32. When the Bison basketballers met the St. Francis quintet on the former's court late in the season, it marked the first meeting between the two local high schools. Although the CHS five Won by a 4l-l4 count, it was a hard-fought battle all the way. The return game between these two rivals, however, proved to be a horse of a different color, for the St. Francians nearly nipped the Bisons and were defeated only by the two last-minute baskets by Bison Guard l-leichel. The final score showed a 30-25 count in favor of the Bisonmen. As an entrant in the City League, the Bisons finished in fifth place behind older and more experienced city teams. The Moose, City League Champions, bested the Bisons by a score of only 41-40, and the Y. Seniors, the second place quintet, edged out the Bisons by a 36-33 score. Aside from the City League, though, the Bohlendermen completed their season with a record of four wins and four losses. THE B150 91 Row l: Wm. Thomson, Quethera, H.

Coach Weiss THE MAT As the Bison grapplers took to the mats this year, it looked as though either of two things, the lack of varsity lettermen or the rationing of gas, might stop their streak of forty-three consecutive victories. But as the season progressed, neither of these handicaps could stop the fighting spirit of the Bison wrestlers. With lim Beers and Benny Hummel the only returning lettermen, the Weissmen started out as a green team, but they later developed into a well rounded ma- chine, winning all their meets and also going on to win the District 6-9 cham- pionship at Tyrone. Clearfield High's wrestling streak now stands at fifty-one consecutive triumphs. ln the season's opener, the Weissman entertained a hardy bunch, the Mountaineers from Philipsburg. This was the first test for the Bisons and a tough one. With Thomson, Beers, Mcllvaine and Rogers scoring falls, and Hummel, Biondi, Patterson and Barr taking referees decisions, the Bed and Black grapplers came out on top by a 32-13 score. On the following Friday night, Lock Haven came to Clearfield to offer the Bisons the stiffest competition encountered throughout the season. lt looked for a while as if our winning streak might stop at forty-four, but big Homer Barr gave Clearfield its forty-fifth straight by winning over Lock Haven's heavy- weight. The final score stood 22-19 in favor of the Red and Black grapplers. In this match, the log-rollers went ahead l9-l4 after the first eight bouts and didn't relinquish their lead until Rogers eeked out a close score in the l65-pound class to tie the score at l9-all. 92 Wres.tling on successive nights, the Bison matmen met Coach Horner's Boswell grapplers in what was supposed to be the toughest competition for the Weissmen all season. Boswell, a veteran aggregation with lettermen in seven weight classes, was overpowered by a 30-9 count. Quethera scored the only fall while Rogers received a default and Barr a forfeit since Boswell had no heavyweight. The Little Lions of State College were the next encounter for our rnatmen. However, the Bison herd had little trouble in subduing the Little Lions by a 35-5 decision in their first away-from-home-match for the season. Strong opposition was had in each bout but three falls were counted during the match. Barr's match with State's Myers proved to be the match of the evening. Usually the strongest competitor of Clearfield's record, the DuBois Beavers came to town with a poor record and left as our 48th victim. A score of 39-4 was administered by the win-minded Bisons and the only points were those scored as Shaffer and Patterson drew. Four falls were registered with Beers scoring in 45 seconds. Go out and bring home the bacon, that seemed to be the motto of the Bison grapplers, for they journeyed down to Bedford and defeated the best that they had to offer. Thomson, Biondi, Iordan and Rogers recorded falls, and Quethera, Hummel, Shaffer and Barr took referee's decisions. Both Beers and Patterson were awarded forfeits to bring the final count to 42-3 over the Blue and White team. The experts say lightning never strikes in the same place twice, but con- trary to that axiom, DuBois was again defeated by the Bison grapplers. The sec- ond defeat was a 37--8 count against the lowly Beavers. Referee's decisions were awarded Quethera, Beers, Hummel, and Shaffer while Thomson, Mcllvaine, Biondi, Rogers and Barr tallied by falls. On February 26, l943, Clearfield ended their dual mat season with a spec- tacular win over the Golden Eagles of Tyrone High School. This match was described by experts as being a dream match because Tyrone had accumu- lated a string of eleven straight victories. Clearfield, with four undefeated matmen, faced Tyrone, which had three wrestlers with perfect records. By co- incidence, Thomson, Rogers and Barr met the three undefeated Eagle grapplers and all emerged victorious, as did Beers, Clearfield's fourth undefeated mat- man. The fifty-first consecutive win was by a 32-8 count. For the fifth consecutive year, the Bisons under the able coaching of Mr. Weiss and Mr. Gage, won the District 6-9 championship by scoring 50 points. For the first time six men were crowned champs from one school as Thomson, Beers, Biondi, Iordan, Rogers and Barr gained the distinction for Clearfield High School. These six won the right to represent Clearfield in the State Tournament by winning the district title in the 95, ll2, l38, l45, l65 and l85 pound classes, respectively. To win a State wrestling championship is the joy of every schoolboy's heart and three Bison wrestlers were awarded first place honors at State Col- lege on March 26th. Thomson, Beers, and Barr were the finalists. Rogers was eliminated in the final round, lordan and Biondi having lost out in earlier rounds. All three state champs went all the way undefeated which is an honor in itself. ln addition, Bill Thomson had the unusual record of having no points scored against him during the entire season.

With 14 victories and only one loss, the Clearfielders captured their third straight Black Diamond League Championship and their third county title, bringing their totals for the four years of competition to 52 victories and 7 losses. With Harold Wilson pitching in the season's opener the Bison nine got off to a fine start with a 20 to l victory over Cooper Township. Victory followed victory as the Clearfielders downed Penfield, Morrisdale, Altoona and Philips- burg by scores of l8-4, l7-l, 3-2, and 2-l, respectively. Altoona was met and defeated again in a non-league tussle which highlighted the mid-season skirm- ishes of the Red and Black. With the string of victories now at 23 the Smithmen brought back the scalps of I-loutzdale, l4-6, Cooper Township, l2-65 Penfield, 12-27 Morrisdale, 20-6, and Philipsburg, 20-5. Cooper Township was beaten a third time by Coach Smith's Bisons in a close battle by a score of 8-7. ln the playoffs for the county title with Woodward High, Clearfield met its first defeat over a period of four years. ln the first affair the Thrushes were whitewashed by an 8-0 score, but they came back in the second game, a free scoring contest, to double the Bison's score and throw the series into a draw. ln the final game of the series Harold Wilson pitched magnificent ball, thus blanking the opposition 2-0, winning the Clearfield County Championship for the third consecutive year and bringing a glorious ending to a fine season. 94 Row l: Bigler, Poole, Danvir, Beish, Peters, Miller, Davis, McLaughlin.

TRACE A D FIELD Under the coaching of Mr Sweely, the Bison thinclads participated in track competition as best as could be expected under the present World conditions. Clearfield took part in a triangular postal meet, the Mountain League Meet and the district championships. Having transportation difficulties, the Bisons were forced to rely on postal meets instead of the usual dual meets. Therefore, the Bisons first competition was a triangular postal meet with State College, Tyrone and Clearfield. Tyrone placed first, Clearfield second and State last. Pray, although only a sopho- more, took first place in the high jump, Cillo copped the broad jump and Bailey was first in the discus. Tyrone had 68 points, Clearfield 64 and State 60. Under the stiff competition at the Mountain League Track Meet at State College, the Bisons placed fourth. Cillo came within one and one-half inches of breaking the league record in the broad jump. Cillo, Bailey and Peters all won first places for Clearfield. In the district meet at Altoona, only Cillo qualified for the state champion- ship meet at State College by placing second in the broad jump. Unfortunately Cillo did not attend the state meets because of transportation difficulties. Out- standing members of the Bison track squad Were Howard Peters, Chet Bailey, john Palmer, Blair Poole, Louis Cillo and Ralph Pray. 95 Coach Sweely Miss Hess , . ...

FEM EAGEHS Beginning about February 15, strange sounds were heard in the gym nearly every evening after school. These sounds were coming from the Bison- ette cagers of the Clearfield High School under the able coaching of Miss Sarah Hess. About seventy girls turned out for the initial practice early in February. After a few practice sessions, the girls elected the following captains to lead teams throughout the season: Eleanor Flegal, Virginia Murray, Barbara Peters, Anna Catherine Bead, Vicki Rodi, Florence Shrock, PeqQY Swisher and Carolyn Thomson. Vicki Bodi's team Won the first half of the tournament by downing Virginia Murray's sextette by a 6-U count. Florence Shrock's girls won the second-half honors by crushing Barbara Peter's floorgirls, l9-l6 in extra periods. The two finalists met in a championship game and the Shrocks emerged victorious by a 22-2 score. By this win, the championship automatically went to the Shrock Bisonettes, thus ending girls' intramural basketball for the '43 season. After the final game, the girls climaxed their season of sport and fun with the annual banquet in the high school library. The highlight of the banquet was the presentation of letters to the twelve outstanding players. Florence Shrock was awarded a three year letter while LeDelle Turner and Anna Catherine Bead were awarded second year letters. Those winning their first year C were: Eleanor Flegal, lane Flegal, Kitty Graham, Sylvia Gustafson, Virginia Murray, Barbara Peters, Vicki Bodi, Carolyn Thomson and Mary Wulchin. All awards were voted on by the players on the basis of sportsmanship, good spirit, attendance and character. The officers for the coming year are Sylvia Gustafson, presidentg Virginia Murray, managery and Dorothy Shaffer, secretary-treasurer. 96 Clearfield .... Clearfield .... Clearfield ....
