fbecficwlian JAY M. TEETER' THE LOSSES of our class have been many during our school career. Most of these were immediate and were caused by withdrawal, moving, or death. However, there is one exception-that of our class president. He has accompanied us throughout our school life but during our pre- sent senior year he has been prevented from regular attendance because of illness and is confined to his home or the hospital. Although not in attendance he displays a special interest in all of our activities, even to the extent of helping to design our year- book cover and the entire contents of the book. During our sophomore year Jay was elected vice-president and with the with- drawal of our president, Jacob Stern Jr., Jay became our spokesman and carried us through a victorious year. During this year we placed first in the magazine campaign and second in the Track Meet. In each of these Jay was a leading participant. During our junior year he rose to the highest batting average of our baseball team, as well as playing a leading part in the Track Meet and Magazine Campaign. He was campaigned by his friends into the office of presidency at the beginning of our senior year. This office he filled faith- fully until ill health prevented. On Track Meet day he entered three events to boost our class to victory. We esteem his leadership and victorious spirit and on this the 26th day of March, 1953 by vote of our class, we include the name of Jay Marlin Teeter in the dual dedication of our yearbook. Deceased April 3

it 525 - 1 C5-v-'A ' QNJW ! i i FRANK L. MOORE THIS SCHOOL TERM displayed the beginning of a winning athletic harvest for Cove High. Most of the credit for this goes to a member of our faculty who is completing his second year of teaching and coaching here. Coach Moore has the confidence of the athletes and the backing of the student body. These are two of the requisites necessary for athletic victories. His complete knowledge of basketball and baseball together with his abil- ity to analyze the tactics of the opposing team prove to be valuable assets to us. Even the patrons of our school are rallying to the in- creased spirit possessed by our cheering stu- dent body. Mr. Moore is a native of Blair County, being born in Altoona, attending school there and graduating from the Altoona Senior High School Class of 1944. After spending lk years in the Air Force, he completed his college work at Penn State where he was a member of the Varsity Bas- ketball Squad. He came to Cove from State to begin his public school activities at the opening of the 1951-52 school term. He was assigned Boys' Physical Education and Ameri- can History. We were the class to accompany him through the first year of his high school teaching. Our good times in history and his cute little grin when an athletic defeat turned into victory, will be long remembered. Because of these we, the class of '53, publicly declare our appreciation of his ser- vices on our school faculty. We include Frank Logan Moore in the dual dedication of this volume of the Pine Crest. May you spend many years at Cove High and may each be crowned with athletic championship teams for our Alma Mater.

me Gm! Sicff Ruth Barnard, Gerald Frederick, Jone Bush. BEWITCHED, BOTHERED and bewildered, was the state of our year- book staff and editors not so very long ago. It takes much patience, effort, and hard work to put together a yearbook. This is the job of our staff. Work began early in October. Soon after- wards, at a class meeting three seniors were elected to serve as co-editors of the yearbook. Those selected were Ruth Barnard, Jone Bush, and Gerald Frederick. This was the actual be- ginning of our annual. During the next few days a Business group was organized, This was headed by Beverly Butler. Then the collection of ma- terial began. These people did most of their work in Home Room Periods and Activity Period, writing articles and collecting pictures. Next came the actual planning of the book. Dimensions of pictures, number of pages, titles, theme, and the hundreds of items need- ed to compile a yearbook had to be figured out. This battle was conquered after school hours, the editors and Mr. Frederick some- times working late into the night to complete the work. Into action came the Business group. These people had the job of soliciting money needed to finance our Pine Crest. Letters were written, patrons found and personal solicita- tions made. A great part of this work was done after school on each students own time. But with plenty of hard work, the money was raised, thanks to the untiring efforts of Bev- erly and Nancy and their group. While all this was taking place, the other sections were by no means loafing. Long hours of typing, research and more typing were needed. Records had to be compiled and fig- ured out, and in general all articles readied for press. Next on the order for the book was pic- ture day. Mr. Claar, Mr. Frederick, and a group of seniors worked all day to get all needed pictures on film. And last but not least, the whole book had to be assembled exactly as it was to be printed. Although much patience and hard work were needed, the book was sent off to be printed and bound. The book was com- plete. Imagine the work, effort, and strain on the entire staff in completing our yearbook. In recognition of this fact we, the Senior Class, wish to express to every student and faculty member, our most sincere apprecia- tion and gratitude for their untiring efforts in recording our footprints in this -1- our yearbook.
