In so doing we have also recorded unconsciously, many of our failures and trials. But such is life. In years to come as you turn the pages of this, our 1960-61 an- nual, COOPER, we hope it reminds you of the ideal life lived here at dear old Cooper High. We would like to thank the Merchants and Friends for their co- operation in making this annual possible. Dcdimfim i As an attestment to the lasting tenderness of her personalityg as a confirmation of the hope and encouragement she has given us, and in appreciation for a dedicated devotion that eclipses the binding reins of duty, we sincerely dedicate this, our nineteen hun- dred and sixty-one yearbook edition to Mrs. Ethel I. Darden. I 1 I I T 1 Tumi ,W,s . A. W- V A V, . .,,, , -as as Zfriuczjwzl is Message I congratulate the Cooper Staff and its sponsors for this excellent publication. It is my hope that a few copies of the 1961 Cooper will be placed in the Library in mem- ory of this class. I would also like to express my appreciation to the members of the faculty and to the parents who have so generously contributed to the support of this publication. Again may I offer my best wishes to the class of 1961. IN THE PR1NCIPAL'S OFFICE Ms-ff W u my Wmwnfpv- ' ,-.uv Pe4 :g5,:::xv-Asssansaaov '1,v--S 5 3 nun... ' '.uW'f fix li! bs-J 5 l I-In mir- R.

Y X f N 611155 ffisfvry On the following pages you will see some of the students who have completed four years of high school work here, starting in Sep- tember, 1957- We were never so eager and proud to enter school as we were to enter Cooper High School. We had a pleasant Freshman year. That year excitement was greatest at the time of the Freshman Frolic, an annual Freshman party feature. ' Here it was that we started working and trying to do to the best of our ability. We worked hard so as to become Sophomores. The Sophomore year found us putting away our childish ways. We really became sophisticated. This year, we thought, was our greatest because ofthe Sophomore Ball. For our theme, we used A Trip to Paradise lsland. And we really felt that night that we were in Paradise. We didn't realize that our Junior year could be more exciting than the others. Why? Because of the Junior-Senior Prom, the theme of which was Evening in Paris. Memories of this activity will linger for many a day. We were happy to be the first Junior class of Cooper to attend Career Day. Formerly this activity has been for Seniors. On June 5, 1960, we left school to return to our present status -Seniors. When we returned to school this fall, we were sorry to find that we had lost several of our classmates who had chosen other fields of endeavor during the summer or had moved away. We were glad to welcome Jesse Walker and Joseph Adams. An outstanding event of our Senior year was the crowning of Florine Smith as Miss Senior Class. At this affair all the senior girls were presented. This was a very pretty activity. This year has been a successful one. We are now looking forward to that day of graduation, when everyone will climb the ladder to reach the top round which holds his future. .af ' junior Glass a 'Y' ' Q it r ,BE A 1. gy , 'A ' ' . a ia. , f .

Przmary Kindergarten N ZA. at Wvrk 'I E 6111155 Prrfplzecy Hi, Ethel, I am now lying here in my backyard taking a sunbath after re+ turning from my tour of France and some other parts of the United States. I was thrilled to hear that you are married, and have three lovely girls. I also heard that you teach at Cortez Peters in Washing-- ton, D. C. By the way, I was in Missouri during my first week of travel. There I saw Patricia Bell and Gloria Kirby. Gloria is a model at Alexander Mitchell's studio, and Patricia is teaching English to a group of foreign children. ' After visiting them, I had lunch at the Sanders restaurant which is owned and operated by Boston Sanders and Emma Sanders. Emma is also a waitress. My second stop was New York, and I stayed at the Stewart Broth- ers hotel 'which is owned-by James and Murphy Stewart. The next day I went on a tour. First I went to the Apollo. The big event for the day was about to take place. The man called the group the Royalettes, and was I surprised to know that it was Elvivian Barnes, Mary Holder, and Lylie Wall. After the program, I met Joe Jones. He told me, he was now professor at Howard University and he also said that Thomas Blaylock was living in New York and, is teaching Chemistry at the University. Instead of going back to the hotel, I went to Coney Island for dinner. As I approached the ferry, I saw the captain, Woodrow Barnes. While Woodrow was showing me on the ferry, I bumped into someone very unexpectedly - Private Detective John Merritt, who was working on a kidnap case. By that time we were on the island. Just asl was getting off the ferry I saw Lois Williamson. She is a hair stylist for the models of the Tan and Ebony Magazines. The next day I boarded a plane to France and I was surprised to see Robie Williams, the pilot of the plane. I was taken to my seat by Carrie Watkins, the hostess ofthe plane. The trip took only five hours. My arrival at France was a very good one. As I went to have my baggage checked from the baggage room I saw Paul Sanders, the manager of the Airport. He said he was married and his wife is working with the French Government. I was taken to Hotel Paris, which is located in the heart of Paris. As I was going up on the elevator, I met Florine Smith and her hus- band. They were on their way to the United States, therefore, I didn't have time to talk to her. My room was arranged very beautifully. Later I found that the arrangement was made by Maggie George and her affiliates. I was invited to dinner by one of my old friends whom I met when I was attending school in Germany. After eating dinner, we went back to my apartment, and talked about some of the things we did in school. Next morning I was carried on a tour of France. As we were leav- ing the hotel, I saw a very exclusive-looking shop across the sueet. My friend andl went over. There I saw an old school mate, Hattie McNeil, standing in the window drawing some dress patterns. Natural- ly, I went over and talked about how things were since we hadn't seen each other since June 1961. She is married, and owns the Dress Shop. We had lunch at the French School and afterwards we were taken to the Principal's office. He told rne that Willie Wilson was his wife and taught English, and French. He showed us around. Across the corridor from Willie Wi1son's classroom, was Agnes Banks in the Home Economics Department. She has a real Cute set of twins. . I was told that the Harlem Globe Trotters were to play that night on TV. Since I used to be fond of the team, I decided thatl would watch the game. First of all, the announcer introduced the coach, Roy Bell, and said he had played ball with the Globe Trotters after completing his college career. He later became the coach. I left France at 8:00 o'clock. By 1:00 o'clock I was in Detroit and there I saw a great number of my old classmates. I bought a newspaper and there on the front page I saw Jesse Walker, Joe Adams, Clarence Tomlinson, and Bobby Cooley. They were going to appear in the Combo Band with Bobby and Clarence. I decided to go to the theater. Could you guess who was the owner and operator of the theater? James Richardson and Dorothy Hood, and they finally got married. Dorothy told me that Edith Barbour and Martha Lassiter were teaching business education classes at Mitchell's Business School owned by Lila Mitchell. She also said that Hattie Rowland is a seam- stress for a foreign designer. Rebecca Uzzell models dresses for Fashion Magazines, and fashion shows. It was simply fascinating to see so many of my old classmates. After going back to my hotel, I got a call from Carolyn Whitley, and she told me she is a social worker and her husband, a preacher. My vacation ends next week. I guess I told you I am a private secretary for a movie manager, who is my dear husband. Classmate of '61, Alice M.
