It contained three flourishing mining towns: Peale, Grassflat, and Winburne. There were also Kylertown and Drifting, which were older and quieter communities, and several smaller settlements. Each one had its own school, many of them a single room Signs of the good times in Winburne were the recent establishment of the bank and the water com- pany, along with the beginning of trolley service to Philipsburg. Winburne already had a large grade school housed in an eleven-room red-brick building. Now the decision was made to increase the educa- tion available by adding a three-year high school course. Thus began Winburne High School. At first Mr. John E. Clark, the supervising principal, was the only teacher, and the high school occupied one room. In 1908 the first commencement was held in honor of one graduate, Vogan Buzzard. The Class of 1909 likewise had only one member, Orvis Howe. Three were graduated in 1910, eight in 1911. Soon a second faculty member was added, with the enrollment steadily increasing. HIGH SCHOOL MOVED TO CROSSROADS Pupils from all over the township, some of whom walked six or seven miles, continued to come to Winburne to high school until 1918. ln that year the new high school pictured here was built at the cross- roads. That year also marked the extension of the course to four years and the addition of a third teacher. Disaster struck the growing young C,T,H,S, in February, 1923, when fire destroyed the high school building and its contents, including all records of graduates up to that time. The high school moved to Kylertown, where the grade school pupils moved out into churches to make room. Being displaced per- sons did not end student activities, however, for it was during that exile that the first Cotohisc was pub lished, inSeptember, 1923. What must have been Cooper's second football team played a full schedule that fall, too. NEW BUILDING DEDICATED On January 2, 1924, the present high school building was dedicated. An elaborate program featured talks by several local residents and County Superintendent W, P. T rostle, as well as songs in Swedish, German, Slovak, and English, sung by students of these backgrounds. Six classrooms, office, and auditorium were included in the new building. Facilities have been in- creased since by the addition of the wing in 1941 and, more recently, by converting basement space, so that now ten classrooms, office, auditorium, and cafeteria are in use. NEW COURSES ADDED Cooper Township High School continued to grow in enrollment, size of faculty, and curriculum. The commercial course was added in 1928-29, home economics in 1941-42. Just this year the SCh001 became one of the first in the area to offer courses in speech. Cooper was a pioneer in this part of Pennsylvania in opening a cafeteria in 1945, and set a model which many other school districts have followed in sending out hot lunches from the high school cafeteria to the grade schools. High school enrollment hit a peak in 1941. with 311 students. That year also saw the largest graduat- ing class, with sixty-five members. After a drop during and after World War ll, enrollments have been rising slightly. This year's student body numbers 265. Karthaus Township has sent its high school pupils to Cooper since 1934-35, and more than seventy are enrolled this year. STUDENTS SHINE IN MUSIC, ..SPORTS, DRAMATICS From the beginning, Cooper Students have shown school spirit in extracurricular activities. Early pupils were fond of musical and literary programs. Dramatic talent has been shown in countless plays. The Coopernian and the Cotohisc have recorded school events. Musical activities, ever present in some form, have seen two particular peaks: the present, with the flourishing band and chorus, and the early 1930's , when the Snowbirds were bringing fame to Cooper. A state chorus championship in 1933 was the crowning achievement of the Snowbirds and their sister Doves. Football, since its beginning in the early 1920 's, has been Cooper's most popular sport. Baseball has a less well-defined history, but perhaps an even longer one. Track meets were held in the 1920 's, and ping-pong is a favorite indoor sport. STUDENTS SUCCEED IN LIFE Cooper alumni have gone on to success in all walks of life. C1ef8YfUCflf 1aWYefSf doctors. def1fiSfS. engineers, teachers, and college professors are numbered among the graduates of its fifty classes. Even more important are those alumni who are the backbone of the citizenry of Cooper Township, who are the parents and grandparents of today's and tomorrow's children, bringing them up to follow high ideals which we believe Cooper Township High School helped to inspire.

In their coaching they have emphasized the embodiment of manly virtue and the example of fair play and sportsmanship that we have been striving to attain during our entire twelve years of school. Mr. Forney's motto could be said to be, It matters not who won or lost, but how the game was played. Our assistant coach, Mr. Zinz, has been a constant source of guid- ance and assistance to all who have needed his help. Our school is better for having teachers like these. May all those who follow us benefit by their high ideals and perseverance. l 1? .M N lv G. I 'E X.. N www 1 ,i.1.x',1?. 2 up - R gb .. -,., ,. 9 Q F -fmme X5 ffl!

To lead us through this new and exciting year we elected Tom Kirk, President, Donna I. Johnson, Vice President, Pat Ostrosky, Secretary, and Tom Sch- nars, Treasurer. Unlike other freshman classes we had the opportunity to display our dramatic and musical ta- lents when we presented the operetta H, M,S, Pinafore, under the direction of Mr. George Meyer. Although many of us participated in sports, Ron Johnson was the only Freshman football letterman. Near the end of our freshman year, Pat Ostrosky was chosen as Drum Major and Pat Ostrosky, Neale Beighwl, L0Il'3iHe Lai' Nancy Kask and Donnal. Johnson were elected cheerleaders, son, Marlene Gurbal, Larry Balko. all of these for the rest of their years at Cooper. And then we were Sophomores! Mr. Zinz and Mr. Graffuis were our appointed advisors. This year we chose as our leaders: Dorothy Burow, President, Elsie L. Johnson, Vice Presidentg Pat Ostrosky, Secretaryg and Donna I. Johnson, Treasurer. Our class was very active in Band, Chorus, Sports, Cotohisc and the newly organ- ized Student Council. Our acting ability was again proven when our class presented the hilarious comedy, Aunt Susie Shoots The Works, directed by Mr. Albert Zinz. The year advanced rapidly and all too soon we were recovering from the bumps and bruises of the traditional Sophomore Jamboree, and im- patiently waiting for our Junior year when we would receive our treasured class rings. We finally became upperclassmenl The Jolly Juniors selected this year Tom Kirk, President: Elsie Lorayne Johnson, Vice Presidentg Pat Ostrosky, Secretaryg and Loretta Jury, Treasurer. Our enthusiasm in co-curricular activities was even greater this year with many obtaining recognition for outstanding accom- plishments. Receiving our class rings, the Junior Halloween Party, along with our class play, The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come, under the direction of Mr. George Meyer, helped pass the time until we would be dancing at the long-awaited Junior-Senior Prom. The Seven Notes provided the music for the gala affair, held at the Hotel Dimeling Ballroom on May 3, 1956. Our theme was Moments to Remem- ber. How quickly time passes! Now as we are about to leave behind us the title of Seniors, we begin to reminisce over the past year. Larry Balko, Neale Beightol, Marlene Gurbal, Pat Osuosky, and Lorraine Larson did an excellent job in filling our offices. Our class contributed nine veteran players, led by Ron Johnson, Captain, to the gridiron, which helped to make the '56 football season a great success. The seniors this year played an even more active role in co-curricular activities. The Trail of the Lonesome Pine. was directed by Mr. Harold Beveridge and Mr. Frank Lingenfelter, was our last chance to display our dramatic ability. On Sunday afternoon, January 27, 1957, we watched with pride, four of our classmates, Neale Beightol, Laurene Larson, Mike Mickney, and Nancy Wertz, as the represented our school as well as our class on the Television program, YOUTH ANSWERS! ' The Senior Class of 1957 is deeply grateful to our advisors, Mr. Harold Beveridge, and Mr. Frank Lingenfelter, Mr. Larson, our principal, all of our teachers and everyone who has given us their kind understanding and never failing guidance. One thing more before we must say goodbye to the H-'1110Wed Halls Of C00Peff fellow 5Gf1i0fS. iS: Never forget the Sophomore Play, The Junior Prom, or our Senior Trip to Washingtong for we'll always have these Moments to Remember.

JOLLY JU IORS! Freshmen, Freshmen, and more Freshmen, seventy- two to be exact, entered the hallowed halls of Cooper High in the fall of '54, We were tabbed Greenies, and until we caught on to the bell system, we were confused Greenies. Our class advisors were, Mr. Lucas, and Mrs. DiCicco. Our homerooms were Rooms 5 and 1. We held a class meeting and chose as our leaders: President, Larry Baumgardnerg Vice President, Joan Ahl- bergg Secretary, Patricia Lawrenceg and Treasurer, Pat Hoover. At the end of our Freshman year we were well re- presented in sports, band, and Student Council. CLASS OFFICERS. Joan Ahlberg, Esther Goss, Nancy Pearce, Larry Baumgardner, The following autumn we returned to school and im- mediately became known as Silly Sophomores, We began the year by electing Milton German, Presidentg Lucille Greenland, Vice Presidentg Joan Ahlberg, Secretary, and James Biggans, Treasurer of our class. During our busy year, we were well repre- sented in sports, chorus, dramatics, Student Council, Cheerleading, and the Cotohisc. Our first play, Mrs. Astor's Horse, proved to be a success. We ended our second year with the traditional Sophomore Jamboree, which will always be remembered for its bumps and bruises. When we alighted from the buses in the September of '56, we entered Cooper as Jolly Juniors. We were only sixty-two in number, now, but we knew, if we tried, we could succeed in the tasks put before us. We settled down, after we had been assigned to Homerooms 2.3. and 4, under the direction of Dr. Milson, Mrs. Gloria Karchner, and Mr, Lewis Lucas. At our class meeting we chose these students to lead us through our Junior year: President, Larry Baumgardnerg Vice President, Esther Goss, Secretary, Nancy Pearceg and Treasurer, Joan Ahlberg. We had just gotten settled when our class rings arrived. To us they were priceless. We went around for days comparing them. Our class play, Mystery, Mayhem, and Murder, full of thrills and chills, was eujuyeu oy air wno saw it. By this time our class had added new members to the chorus, and the band. With April just around the comer, we began planning for the Washington Trip. A trip we'1l cherish in our Memory Books, forever. With three years at Cooper behind us, and our Senior year before us, we look forward to the Prom, and to the day when we will be the graduating class of 1958. As we make our different ways in the world, we will always remember the old, but very truthful proverb, Wisdom is desirable, for it brings great Blessings. 3 1 ,gr M.

Kay Peavy, President, Eloise Lutz, Vice Presidentg Alice Ann Kirk, Secretaryg and Caroline Guydosik, Treasurer. We were well represented in co-curricular activities and near the end of our Freshman year Mary Brolin and Sally John son were elected cheerleaders, a position they would hold throughout high school. As this book goes to press, we are in the middle of our Sophomore year, with Mrs. DiCicco and Mr. Zinz as our class advisors.

Prize money was to be used for the purchase of a blocking machine. This purposeful trip paid off in the fall as the team experienced the best season in sixteen years. Members of the team making the trip were: Coach Robert Fomey, Ron Thompson, Ed Lucas, Neale Beigh- tol, Tom Kirk, Ron Johnson, Bob Balko, and Ron Pet- rof. Mr. George Meyer and the coach's son, Alan, al- so made the trip. Members of our team also received a great deal of recognition for Outstanding achievements. Ron Johnson, our star left halfback and captain of the 1956 team, was named to the AllC1earfieldCoun- ty-Moshannon Valley Team. Ron also received the Janke Trophy for being the Outstanding member of the squad. Other Cooper players receiving honorable mention for the All-Star Team were: Bob Balko, Larry Baum- gardner, Neale Beightol, Larry Balko, and John Lucas.

Coaches Robert Forney and Albert Zinz molded the team which broke and set many school records, This team accomplished something which Cooper teams have failed to do for sixteen years, that was beating Morris Township. We played our first game with B, E,N,A, on our own field. It seemed the Cooper offense could not get rolling. When the smoke cleared, Cooper was on the short end of a 21-7 score. Playing again on our own field we met Renovo. This time the tables were turned, Cooper's men were in charge all the way with Captain Ron Johnson and Milt Thomas carrying the offensive load. The score: COOPER 39 - Renovo 0. In our third game on our own field again, we met a very inexperienced Clearfield JV team. Again Cooper was in charge all the way, although the Clearfield team never gave up. The final score read: COOPER 44 - Clearfield JV's 6. For our fourth game we traveled to Philipsburg to play the game we all had waited for, that being the Morris game. On the opening kickoff Ron Johnson took the ball and went 90 yards for a touchdown. From then on it was all Cooper and Ron Johnson. The final score: 28-12 favor Cooper. We then returned home for the Moshannon Valley game. In this game Cooper played hard, but the breaks were against us. Cooper was ahead at halftime 13-7, but in the second half a strong Moshannon Valley broke it up. The score: 20-13 Moshannon Valley. Our next opponent was Gallitzin, this away from home. Gallitzin's defense could not hold our offense and we were again victorious, The scoreboard read: COOPER 31 - Gallitzin O. Again we traveled away, to Penns Manor. In this game we had a rough battle. Again the breaks were not in our favor, but we managed to chop out a well earned 13-6 victory. We played our eighth game away from home again, this time against Bald Eagle Joint. The Cooper machine could not get rolling. The final score read: 14 - B.E.A. , 0 - COOPER TWP. In our final game we played host to Juniata Valley. Because of the injuries the coach had to juggle the lineup. The new boys used, came through in flying fashion. The Cooper charges were in command all the way. Larry Balko scored two touchdowns and two extra points. Milt Thomas playing fullback for one play took off on a 65 yard touchdown jaunt. When the smoke had cleared COOPER had scored 39 points to Juniata Valley's O. MR.

This season the Vikings were again in a league. This time the M.V.L, with Reade, Moshannon, Valley, and B.C,I. Because Osceola went in with Philipsburg the league of- ficals decided each team would play each team three times. Although the team was composed of a majority of underclass- men , the team still had a successful season. At the end of the season our four Senior players played in the M,V,L, All-Star Game.
