Class History Turning back the pages of time to Sept. 1952, we recall a bewildered and excited group of seventh graders adjusting themselves to a new school routine and trying hard to mold themselves into a future, potential high school class. Those early years hold many recollections: our first plays, Wise King Jason and Peter Visits America --roller coaster rides at Domey Park--shop products our boys were proud (?) to take home--fashion revues presented by the Home Ec. department and who could forget those wonderful slave drivers--the Seniors! New additions to our class arrived in the ninth year. With our new found friends and the proud name of Freshmen, we buckled down to selecting prospective courses, which were big factors in deciding the future. The first unforgettable social event was the Sweetheart Hop with Frances Ivankovits crowned queen. The important high school years were filled with many wonderful experiences and events. Many we shall remember and cherish, such as odorous chem experiments, gym exhibitions, English true and false quizzes, pep rallies and SMEAR EM, WILDCATS! , going steady, dozing off in Lit Class, proudly showing off new class rings, Sputniks, strenuous practices, 10 laps around the track, monotonous calisthenics, pre-game jitters--defeat or VICTORY !--white swans blue ribbons, dreamy music, and the prom with its lovely queen, Joanne Piha. Senior days sped by leaving thoughts of the wonderful friendships we made and the mixed-up fun we had. The idea of homework faded but there remained such lingering memories-- You Are There movies--our favorite subject, study halls—the friendly discussions of the yearbook staff--peppy cheerleaders—the big game--kneesocks, crew necks, and flat tops--interior decorating at Christmas time--the Senior Debate--exchanging name cards and pictures—Senior Day and the class Banquet—the most memorable night. Commencement. Tear this page in life from the pages of time, and let memories dim, we always turn to The Coplayite, and recall the pleasant memories at C.H.S. We, the graduating class of 1958, bid Farewell! 2 ■
