Coopersville High School - Zenith Yearbook (Coopersville, MI)

The name of Dr. John A. Lown has been mentioned many times in connection with .school affairs. A listing of his cash contributions to the band, athletics, and rifle club could be made, but it would seem so inappropriate. As generous as his gifts were, they are dimmed in comparison to the loss by death of Dr. Lown as a friend, a guide, a counselor and a brother. He will be sorely missed by students and teachers of Coopersville High School. 9

The Grade School Is it that couple holding hands by your door every noon? Is it a mountain of papers on your desk? Is it that boy that cannot hear your assignments when you write them on the chalkboard? Is a school a card in the mail box from a friend having a good time? Is a school a person that waits until he gets into your room to scrape the morning chores from his shoes? Is it looking up to a six foot-four frame to explain that J4 is one- half of ' 2? Is it a pupil that recognizes the suit you have on this week? Is it only three practice sessions before the concert? Is it the sliver on the chair that catches your hose? Is a school a waste paper basket too small to hit from the far side of the room? Is it the empty towel dispenser in the lavatory? Is it the Sentinel reporter that never gets the news in on time? Is a school so interesting that you have no trouble putting stu- dents to sleep? Is it three meetings during Home Room that require your presence? What is a school? It must be all of these things and many more, because where else can you find 68,f)90 minutes each year packed with happiness, sorrow, anticipation, friendship, war and peace. It must be all of these things and many more, because I like our school very much. 8
