In 1957 she graduated from Albany State Uni- versity College and began working at Clifton Fine. She earned her master’s degree in 1973, and in 1978 was honored as counselor of the year. She was most worthy of this award, which reflected all her warm, compassionate qualities as a guid- ance counselor. Mrs. Cooper dedicated twen- ty-seven years of her life to teaching. She was a caring and loving person, never without a smile. She was always helpful and encouraging when anyone came to her for guidance.

She was the secretary to our Superintendent of Schools as well as having many oth- er responsibilities. She was responsi- ble for the design and layout of the newsletter, maintaining a district calendar of activities, taking care of the details of the annual election, and preparing district budget mate- rials. Her tasks were many, but she still had time for family and friends. Being a very religious person, she attended mass and sang with the choir. She also enjoyed being with her family, sewing and other home projects. Mrs. Patraw was a very friendly person, greeting everyone with a happy smile. She was also very helpful; whenever there was a problem, she would be there to lend a helping hand, fust the smile in her eyes seemed to show everyone that everything would be all right. She was happy with her work; the sound of her hearty laugh was proof of the enjoyment she found in it. We shall always remember the happiness she felt and the way it shined in her eyes. Her reassuring smile and cheerful laugh will be with us all, always.

After five weeks of memorizing lines, blocking movements, and ex- perimenting with costumes, makeup and props, the seniors presented two lively performances of Donald Pay- ton’s comedy, Suitable for Hanging. The play featured the misadventures of Charlie Hackle, an unsuspecting lab assistant who is hypnotized and consequently misses his wedding, much to the bewilderment of his bride-to-be and her fuming mother. The energy and dedication of those involved made the senior play an enjoyable and memorable experi- ence for the cast, the stage crew, and the directors, as well as the audience. 16 Senior Play THE CAST Charlie Hackle...................Jim LaRocque Sam Adams..................................Jon Boula Abby Raney............................Michelle Laurin Mini Wrenn...............................Lynda Dolan Maxi Wrenn.........................Lisa LaRose Professor Gruber.................Paul Hartmann Dr. Zapotka................................fay Brass Mrs. Raney.....................Hope Manchester Mr. Raney........................Nelson Martin Mrs. Hackle..............................Tammy Briggs Hilga.....................................Lisa Woods Anatole...................................Lyle Marsh Tina....................................Martha Shene Directors............Miss Powell and Miss Nasci Senior Play 17 Row 1: D.

They have been gaining ground in their pursuit by selling scarves, candy, books at a book fair, and by selling refreshments at the girls basketball games. ; The Junior Year is a very important step in that ladder of success, at this time they are trying to achieve the goals they set in ninth and tenth grades. They must concentrate on what they are going to ma- jor in whether it be math, science, music, or art. P.M. BOCES: Row 1: P. Kerr; Row 2: D. Finley, L. Antwine, C. Peabody; Row 3: R. Gearsbeck, D.

They also raised another $150 for UNICEF. Even this was not enough for some of them and once again they brought a little joy and love into our community. They went Christmas car- oling to the hospital and the Senior Citizen areas. They will continue to carry on the traditions of our school when they leave for their camping trip in the spring. Once again our sixth graders have not let us down. Row 1: M. Sovay, T. Henrie, T. Reynolds, M. Boyea; Row 2: S. Kerr, R. Dana, K. McNamara, T. Sellers, P. Hubbard, J. Davenport; Row 3: Mr. Glenn, P.

New things like lockers, sepa- rate gym classes, and a different teacher for each class were introduced. They wrote to other kids in different parts of the country.

We did multiplication and division. We also learned to write in cursive. We still had time for fun, though. We sang Christmas carols at Christmas and went on a field trip in the summer. We also made our school very proud by putting on an assembly in honor of Veterans’ Day. 2ND GRADE Second grade is an important grade because it is the time for many changes and new beginnings. These kids work hard all year learning the basic language arts and mathematics skills needed in high- er grades. They learn the important skills of proof- reading, correct sentence structure, comprehension, oral reading and vocabulary. They also spend a lot of time with mathematics skills, like measurement, basic operations with numbers, and problem solving. Second graders are asked to learn and understand a lot of material in one year but all get the care and attention they need from their teacher. Row 1: J. McIntosh. A. Benjamin, T. Wendt, T. Pelno, S.

Ward First graders deserve a lot of credit; they learn many things needed to get them off to a good start in school and in life. These are just some of the things first graders learn to do: read and spell, add and subtract, write numbers to 200 and more, tell time, measure things, use money, write letters and stories, listen to and act out stories. They enjoy stories by Dr. Seuss, and books like CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY and CHARLOTTE'S WEB. But, they don’t just learn about people and places from books; a highlight of the school year for first graders is a trip to a real farm. At both work and play, first graders are learning important things. Row 1: E. O'Connor, C. Shampine, H. Cook, A. Ezro, L. Hickey, A. Bigwarfe; Row 2: |. Huckle, B. Finley, A. Klock, |. Gates, M.

Basic singing technique is taught and high school credit is given. Through this program we are meeting the Board of Regents recommendations for credits for graduation. When chorus is combined with a compre- hensive music course, and a concentration in piano, voice, or an instrument, a student can qualify for a major in music at college level.

Bowman BAND AT C-F The instrumental program at Clifton-Fine begins in the fifth grade, where students learn a little music back- ground. In the sixth grade the stu- dents can play in junior band. There used to be an elementary band, but it was eliminated because of the cutback in the music depart- ment. The students are in the junior band from grades six through eight. In ninth through twelfth grade, students are in the Senior Band. All instrumental students receive one lesson per week where they are introduced to techniques required to play the instrument they chose, as well as the rudi- ments of musicianship. The band music is selected to reinforce the material presented at lessons. The band is the laboratory for the instrumentalists at Clifton-Fine and proves to be en- joyable to the students and entertaining to their audi- ences. 64 Band at C-F STAGE BAND: Row 1: J.

Manchester, R. Finley, P. Hartmann, J. Kuhn, |. LaRocque, Ms. Eygnor, L. Woods, J. Boula Again this year the yearbook staff was understaffed. Like last year we started with a large staff that gradually grew smaller and smaller so that at one point we were not sure we were going to make it. Many people put in a lot of work this year. Julia Russell was editor along with Paul Hartman as the head of photography, and Don Whitmore as business manager. Ms. Eygnor was our advisor this year and she put in many long hours of work to help us get through. Mrs. Meyer was Photography Club advisor, and trained people to work in the dark room. I would especially like to thank Mr. Ritchings who was al- ways there when a problem arose to help fix our many mistakes. It has been a very hard year with such a very small staff. All of the people on the yearbook staff were also members of the photo club staff. This made things very tiring and discouraging at times. The yearbook is a special memory of school that can be looked at at any time in the future. Without the help of the entire yearbook staff that took the time to put a little effort into this, we could not have had a year- book this year. Editor At the end of the school year two seniors helped us reach our goal by a great deal of work and enthusiasm. Lynda Dolan did much of the legwork involved in selling yearbook advertising, as well as laying out the ads. Michelle Laurin worked in nearly all aspects of this publication. She collected, wrote and typed copy; drew layouts; drew the artwork for section dividers; searched for pictures; made deci- sions; and insisted that we had to have a yearbook! Michelle often worked by herself, and she was in- volved actively until the last pages were done. She made sure we would have a yearbook. 66 Yearbook Staff PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB Although it has indeed been dis- couraging at times to try to put to- gether a yearbook with limited staff and resources, it has also been a re- warding experience. The MOUN- TAIN ECHO is a student publica- tion; students make the decisions and do most of the work involved in its production, with guidance and assistance from faculty. All the stu- dents who worked in some way in this effort learned some new skill: collecting and writing copy, wordprocessing, proofreading, pho- tography, doing layouts, and selling advertising, to name a few. Those who did a great deal of work learned something from more than one of these areas. Having a final product, a record of an activity-filled school year which we can read and share for years to come is one reward, but it is also re- warding to know that our work has made it possible for several students to develop new skills which are like- ly to be useful in their future, j.e.

Jahnke For the first time this year the ALP students met during the eighth period every day instead of alter- nating days as in previous years. This helped give more continuity to the program and was less confus- ing. The students did a variety of short and long-term projects. One of the highlights of the year was a December field trip to the St. Lawrence County Historical Museum in Canton and the Potsdam State College Library. 68 Advanced Learning Program NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Sitting: M.

Russell Election into the National Honor Society is the highest honor Clifton-Fine can give to a student. To become a member of the society, the student must have the qualities of character, leadership, and citi- zenship, and must also carry a commulative average of 87.50 or above. Clifton-Fine takes great pride in the students who demonstrate high standards in both academic achievement and social responsibility, and rewards the few who do with the distinct honor of being members of the Society.

Tammy Snider, Michelle Laurin, Chris Bald and Lisa Snider are four-year cheering veterans, while Denise Foley and Lynda Dolan are fifth-year cheerleaders. This experience enabled the girls to demonstrate skills and style that heretofore had only been dreamed of at Clifton-Fine. Mrs. Yartz, the coach, said, “This group has set new standards for future C-F squads to try to live up to. Their spirit of cooperation and enthusiasm made them a pleasure to work with and their skills and style made them a pleasure to watch.” ! JV Basketball: Row 1: N. Zubin, M. Terry,). Laurin, L.

They did, however, have a successful season finishing second in both the league and section.

Wrestling to All-Northern status were Fred Spicer, Willie Paro, Lyle Marsh, and George Kelley. Both Fred Spicer and Willie Paro, by winning overall sectional titles this year, achieved new records for Clifton-Fine. Fred, as a freshman is the youngest to ever win the title and Willie returned as a three time champion which has never been done before. Willie was selected as the recipient of the Bill Rice Memorial M.V.P., and Steve Meek won the Most Improved trophy. Tim MacCrimmon, Jon Boula, Phil Shaw, and Lyle Marsh all won awards for their help in giving the matmen a strong middle line-up.
