Due to a stiff schedule for the heighth of the boys and a raft of new material, the season was not very successful as far as the scores will indicate. Nevertheless in team spirit and finance we made a great stride. The result of the season follows: C. T. H. S. Opponents 23 Centralia ..,.........,..............,.......,..., home .....,.. .. 7 4 Mt.

Again spring finds us hard at work to take part in the Annual County Track and Field Meet to be held on College Field, Bloomsburg, on the ninth of May. a OUR LIBRARY How often when we think of Conyngham Township High School we forget that most important part-the library. When we stop to consider, we agree that it is this branch that makes progress possible. We all recall little incidents that occurred on var- ious occasions, and we are sorry for some of the mean things that we have done, especially when those in charge were so accommodating. We the Class of '28 wish to right our wrongs, and extend our sincere appreciation to Miss Gotshall and Miss Goddard as Librarians. 28

IRIS BOYS' ATHLETICS Up until five years ago our High School knew nothing of either in-door or out-door athletics, but since we have our New High School building with a space provided, basket- ball has become our major indoor sport while track and field events fill the bill for our out-door sports. , Five years ago Mr. Teter, Principal 'at that time, organized our first basketball team and met with much success during the season. However most of the players were from the Senior class and were lost to the school by graduation. At the beginning of the following year we lost Mr. Teter and as no faculty member at that time seemed interested, boys' basketball made no progress. During the following year, although we found a new Principal, varsity basketball went, for a long time, unaided by any member of the faculty. During that season, however, the boys of the Sophomore class, the class of '28, full of pep and good sportmanship, under the coaching of their class advisor, Miles M. Kostenbauder, gave the school a class team with an excellent record. In fact no class or team has made a record which surpasses it. They scored 436 points during the season while their op- ponents scored only 267 points. This was not because they had an easy schedule. On the contrary, they played class teams representing various larger schools such as St. Edwards, Shamokin, Centraliag Ashland, Mt. Carmel, St. Josephs, Ashland, Locust Dale and the so-called Conyngham Twp. H. S. varsity. Pitted against the above teams they won twelve of the sixteen games played. During the school year '26-'27 varsity basketball was resumed. This team was composed of the boys who represent the class of '28 with a few members from the Senior, Sophomore, Freshman and Eighth grades. During the season much progress was made, and some new equipment was furnished. The boys, winning more than half the games played, were given a banquet which was, promised by their coach at the beginning of the season. This banquet was prepared and served by the class of '27 under the direction of Miss Heffner of the Home Economics Department. At this banquet the boys had the privilege of hearing a very interesting and inspirational talk by Ray Singley, Coach of Athletics of Mt. Carmel High School. When the track season started we found many of the boys out and hard at work training for the track and field meet. For the first time our school was represented in the Annual County Track Meet held on the College field in Bloomsburg. However our high school boys did not make a favorable showing. The boys in grades seven, eight and nine made a remarkable display of their ability. In fact they won practically all the firsts and seconds. Results were as follows: Running Broad Jump-First, Theodore Klischerg Second, Leroy Bucker. Basketball Throw-First, Elton Hunsingerg Second, Luther Raudenbush. 75 yard dash-First, Ralph Owens, Second, Theodore Klischer. 12 lb. shot-put-First, Luther Raudenbush, Second, Theodore Klischer. High Jump-First, Leroy Buckerg Ralph Owens tied for Third. During the season 1927-1928 we again found a few of the class of '28, but the majority from the other classes, on the varsity. This year the school will lose four ex- perienced players due to graduation and one of these, C. H. Tilmont, will be greatly missed as he acted in the capacity of Student Manager the past two seasons and was responsible for the schedules of both years.
