K ' 'SW if-5 John Errigo Raymond Smith Clark Rich SE IDR Red Bank Valley 12 CJH5 6 RED BANK wiNs OPENER The Bulldogs of Red Bank Valley spoiled the Tide's opening game by squeezing out a hard-fought T2-6 victory. Both opponent TD's came in the first half, while Ray Smith inter- cepted a pass and galloped fifty yards down the sideline for the only CJHS score. Philipsburg 34 CJHS 0 MOUNTAINEERS MASSACRE TIDE The big and powerful Mountaineers re- fused to be stopped. Capitalizing on Curwens- ville mistakes, they kept the Tide offense com- pletely bottled up. Scoring almost at will, they trounced the Tide 34-O. It was only through the eFforts of Rich and Bunnell on defense that the score didn't go higher. Reynoldsville 12 CJHS 7 BULLDOGS WIN - IMPROVEMENT SHOWS Following the pattern of the opening game, the Reynoldsville Bulldogs scored two touchdowns in the first half and went on to hold the Tide offense to one touchdown. In the second half Don Riddle caught a Dan Strickland aerial for a TD but again we were beaten 12-7. Punxsutawney 34 CJHS 6 BUNNELL PASS CLICKS - NOTHING ELSE DOES Again the Tide was faced with a superior foe. The Punxsutawney Chucks turned the game into a rout after scoring in the opening minute. Led by a hard-charging line, the Chucks controlled the play throughout the game. The Tide's only score came on a trick pass to Dick Bunnell. Johnsonburg 34 CJHS 7 JOHNNIES MAKE IT 5 IN A ROW Still aiming for victory number one, the Tide found Johnsonburg's strong team a poor host. Displaying a gigantic line and a fiashy back in Joe Simchak, they were never threat- ened. Dan Strickland climaxed a long drive with a Q-back sneak to pay dirt to spoil John- sonburg's bid for a shutout. DuBois 26 CJH5 0 STUBBORN TlDE SCARES BEAVERS The DuBois Beavers rolled into Curwens- ville sporting an unbeaten record and an All- State halfback in Gene Mikelonis. Expecting Richard Bunnell james MCNQUI ET TER an easy victory, they were visibly shaken when the Tide threatened their goal line per- sistently and held their offense to T3 points in the first three quarters. Though they lost, this game was the turning point in the Tide's medi- ocre season. Huntingdon 0 CJHS 40 TIDE CHALKS UP NUMBER ONE The fired-up Curwensville squad rolled into Huntingdon with vengeance in its eyes. The helpless Bearcat squad tried its best but it was of no use. The entire team played su- perbly and it would be difficult to name a few standouts. Unleashing a savage offense, the Tide backfield scored 6 touchdowns and brought home victory number one. Moshannon 0 CJHS I9 TIDE GAINS MOMENTUM from the opening kickoff the game was all Curwensville. Bob Burns took the opening kickoff and raced eighty yards for the first Tide score. Sparked by Rich, Bunnell, and McNaul the defensive unit held the Green Raiders scoreless as the Tide continued its iinx over them. Burns added another TD, with Ray Smith chalking up six points and Zwolski contributing an extra point to finish the Tide scoring. Osceola Mills 0 CJHS 7 lNDlANS DOWNED IN SNOWSTORM After fighting its way through a blizzard to reach the town, the Curwensville squad was forced to fight its way through a determined Osceola Mills team to chalk up victory number three. The first three quarters were scoreless, but midway in the fourth Ron Jones blocked an attempted punt and Chuck Wink fell on it in the end zone for the only score. Clearfield D CJHS 26 THE TIDE COMES ROLLING IN The Golden Tide, now rolling along at full strength, met the Bisons from Clearfield in the traditional battle of the year. After a close first half, the Tide caught fire when Bob Burns burst off tackle and raced sixty yards to pay dirt. The defense played beautiful ball in shut- ting out the Bisons, while the offense scored four times to beat our arch-rival 26-O.

The staff pictured here was selected by ballot before the end of our junior year so that during the summer vacation the students could do some serious thinking about the production of the book. In addition to those pictured, Hartley Selfridge was an original member of our group but unfortunately had to resign because of ill- ness. ln the fall of our senior year we met under the leadership of Mrs. Betty Bonsall to actually begin planning the '54 edition of The Echo . Our first chore was to elect an editor and asso- ciate editor. James Yacabucci and Elaine Sned- don were chosen respectively. Now we were ready to begin work and work we did. The first matter of business was selecting our theme, for it would, to some ex- tent, determine our choice of cover, color and style of type This was hard to do as we found out soon enough. Finally we agreed upon a theme and we were ready to start making our dummy. A committee was appointed by the editor to take charge of photography and the copy was begun almost immediately. Mrs. Stone, our art advisor, made suggestions and prepared sketches fcr the portions of the book where drawings were to be used. After a few weeks of chaos the book began to take shape, and as the weeks passed it kept growing and growing. Then it was getting close to the dead- lines and we hurried to finish on time. At last it was over and we were all done, but in spite of the work, we enioyed ourselves and learned a lot from our experiences. The staff would like to thank the photog- raphers, Mr. Leslie Leach and Mr. Carl Bordas, for the fine cooperation they have given us, and to all others who helped, we extend our hearti- est thanks Left to right Florence Bailor Colleen Lasher Betty McFadden Elaine Sneddon James Yacabucci Richard Goodman Clark Rich . Z . I I I f I 'I Q , . 58 THE ECHO BUSINESS STAFF The other big problem in publishing a yearbook is the job of financing it, and the committee assigned to this task is the Business StaFF. To become a member of this group one must either be elected by his classmates or appointed by the advisor, Mr. Briggs. In selecting this group, the qualities given the most attention are salesmanship, personality and willingness to work. The staff met and elected Beverly Rich as chairman. Then the real work began. The first thing was to solicit money from business- men in Clearfield and Curwensville. To ac- complish this task the staff was dismissed from school to collect contributions in the two towns. Next, the staFf's iob was to sell Echoes in the school and to direct the sale of our yearbook in the community. To advertise this sale the staff made posters which were attached to bulletin boards throughout the school. This campaign is still being carried on as the book goes to press. The Business Staff would like to thank the loyal patrons listed on pages 86 and 87 for their contributions to the Echo fund and everyone else who co operated in its drive to ecure funds THE ECHO TYPISTS left to right: Gretchen Houck, Beverly Rich, Lenora Bowden Left to right Margaret Anderson Roberta Mathews Joanne Haines Beverly Rich Virginia Richards James McNQuI William Davis Anna Belle Gresllck f 59 7- Press Club Beta Tri-Hi-Y Alpha Tri-Hi-Y Bottom Row left to right Vxo'et Schonwalder Mary Johnson Row 2 Row 3 Row 4 Nancy McAnulty Kay Rogers Judrth Thompson Louise Bloom Edlth Wrlght Janeen Wllt Mane Mad erla Allce McCartney Anne Kephart Shlrley ShaFfer Maryten Duttry Ellen Shlvely Mad ellne Dale Shelvy Gardner Donna Swanson Loulne Bloom Dorothy Kashella Margaret Anderson Jo anne Homes Wava Bloom Kath'een Campbell Joyce Tate Nancy Straw Duane Ross Norma Neeper Marlorle Riddle John Radzleta Sharley Wlnk Bev erly Rach Mildred Strlcek Mary Smay Alnora Wlse Sara McGee Ruth Gamble Ellen Shaffer Roberta Mathews Betty Passmore Jean Orr Lucllle Wrlglesworth Mary Ann Kavelak Lllluan Clark Mary McDonald Susanne Moore Kathryn Rldde Judlth Chl tester Catherine Blackburn Bot om Row left to rlght Nancy Bartell Elalne Fisher Susan Row 2 Row 3 Row 4 Browne DIXIE Bloom Nancy Straw Barbara Ross Gloria Fryer Eeanor Strunk Luu Belle Berry Nancy Perllla Patrlcla Carfley Judith Anderson Constance Hummel Lane Keller Joyce Tate Josephtne Errlgo Rose Panko Judrth Chnt tester Kathryn Riddle Geraldane Koval Judith McCall Judlth McFadden Julla Hell Marlorle Thurstln Frances Errlgo Anna Henry Dortha Bell Mae Mathews Catherine Johnson Barbara Hnlle man Betty Malmberg Kathleen Srnlth Joan Wood Mona Jean Rafferty Vonda Lee Rowles Helen Con way Llllle Winters JoEllen Thompson Carol Paul Carol Tenon Helen Olosky Edna Catlin Wilma Danvr Mary Rafterty Donna Wall Elizabeth Hoyt Chrlstlne Rafferty Teresa Palonk Barbara Maderla Paula Jones Susan Bar rett Bottom Row left to right Vaolet Schonwalder Ellen Shrvely Row 2 Row 3 Row 4 Kay Rogers Judith Thompson Louise Bloom Edith Wright Sara Frank Louise Curry Shirley Shatter Duane Ross Donna Swanson Loulne Bloom Doro hy Kashe la Margaret Anderson Wava Bloom LaVerna Wrlglesworth Norma Neeper Marlorle Rld dle Alnora Wlse Sara McGee Susanne Moore Marne Maderla Vlola Wood Ruth Ann Spencer Thyra Dickey Luculle Wrlglesworth Shirley Wink Roberta Mathews Allce McCartney Dorothy McKeown Mary Johnson Officer Purpos PRESS CLUB s President Vlce Pres dent Secretary Treasurer Editor Advisor 9 'een Lasher Susanne Moore Bevery Rich Kay Rogers Mary Johnson Mrs Alrna Ardary To keep CJHS s udents Informed of he happen ings IH our school Prcgect The publxca lon of the school paper The Pot tonrte BETA TRI- Officer s President Vnce President Secretary Advisor P.upose HI-Y Nancy Straw Susan Browne Dlxle Lee Broom Mrs Ella Briggs To create malntaun and extend throughout the home school and commun1ty hugh standards of Chrlstlan character Protects Food contributions to the Children s Ho'ne CARE package to London Assistance given In the TB drive and the Red Cross drlve LPHA TRI-HI-Y President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Advtsor Purpose Susanne Moore Louise Bloom Colleen Lasher Lounse Curry Mrs Jean Kelser To create marntaln and extend throughout the home school and community hugh standards ot Christian character Prolect Candy sales at several football and basketball games , 1 I 1 , 1 I I l V I I I - 1 1 - 1 .

STRAWS FOR TWO 71 I 'J fx Q t XD. kr SOCIA ACTIVITIES Social activities in a school aim at the development of youth at a time when youth seeks not only knowledge but needs the strengthening of mind, emotions, personality and character. Taking part in social activities gives the individual an opportunity to asso- ciate with others, to learn to be a leader as well as to be a good follower, and to develop a sense of responsibility for the welfare of the group. He is given an opportunity to improve his conversational ability, to acquire good manners, and to become a part of the group. However, perhaps the most important phase of social activities is the pleasure that participants derive and the friendships that they form. lt is really fun to dance, to play games, or just to sit around and visit informally with fellow students and faculty members. A student's happiness during school hours is often determined by the extent to which he has engaged in the social affairs of the school. At the school dance he learns that the faculty members like to have fun, that the grades made in class are forgotten there, and that high grades are not a requisite for a good dancing partner. Acceptance at social events often leads to more interest and success in the classroom. We heartily recommend that every member of the student body make his contribution to the social affairs of our school through his participation in them. 72 SENIUR DANCE The seniors went all out in presenting their final all-class event. The setting for the dance was a small nightclub in Paris complete with tables French menus and waiters. The floor show was introduced by MC Marty Kantar. It consisted thrown in for good measure. The excellent music was provided by Bob Reays orchestra. The large crowd agreed that it was an especially fine dance. 73 of a can-can dance, a sang by Elaine Sneddon, and an imitation of Stan Freeburg XSRWA U IDR DANCE The tirst class dance of the school year was handled very nicely by the juniors on October lo. It was called The Junior Jump and Jive and its decorations were interesting. Each cor- ner of the room was dedicated to a different class and the colors of the respective class were used to decorate that corner of the room. For the entertainment there were a hula dance and some songs of the Roaring Twenties presented by the group ot girls pictured above. It was a fine dance and a credit to the iunior class. SDPHD DRE DANCE On December T8 the sophomores held their class dance in the Locust Street gymna sium Calling it The Holiday Frolic t eir entertainment was apropos to the Christmas season Complete with Santa Claus and presents the entertainment as well as the decorations were well put together We re sure everyone enloyed himself and the sophomores are to be congratulated fo a 'ob welldone xfl AWARD NNERS Good Citizen, Betty McFad- den, receives congratulations from Beverly Rich and Colleen Lasher, runners-up.
