FOREWORD This is "Little Leo," our mascot for the 1957 Maroon and Gray. He will guide you through our high school which was originally built in 1900. This school will soon close its doors to Senior High and become only a Junior High School. The graduating class of '57 moves out into the world to take its place among men. The Juniors, Sophomores and Freshmen move up another step to the top of their high school career. As they take their places, they will be in a new and different school. "Little Leo" is here to bring back all the memories of the 1956-57 school year and also the history of our "old school." The class of '57 is proud to be the last class to graduate from this building, but we know the class of '58 will even be prouder to be the first clas5 to graduate from a new and shining building. "Leo," we now turn this book over to you so that you may help everyone including the parents, teachers, and students enjoy this past year in State College High School.

DEDICATION "Little Leo" is privileged to co -dedicate this 1957 Maroon and Gray to Miss Margaret McVicker, teacher, counselor, and friend .

She is a graduate of \i\Tilson College and has graduate work at U . C. L.A. and Penn State to her credit. She has taught in Allegheny and Centre counties.

You can always find Miss McVicker at all the high school and college sporting events. She is an avid bowler, and she can be found every Tuesday night bowling for her team, the Hypatias. Thank you, Miss McVicker, for helping to make our school years more profitable through your excellent guidance.

Miss Margaret McVicker

Mr. John F. Hanna It is with sincere pleasure that "Little Leo" co-dedicates the yearbook to Mr. John F. Hanna, friend, teacher, and coach. In the winter, you can find Mr. Hanna supervising his future office workers, and in the summer, you can find him busily putting the baseball team through its paces. Mr. Hanna is a native of Bradford, Pennsylvania. He attended Susquehanna University where he received a Bachelor of Science degree. He holds a Master of Science degree from Bucknell and a Doctor of Education from the Pennsylvania State University. He is married to .the former June Snyder and has a daughter, Nancy, age 5.

IN MEMORIAM

Roller skating ,vas Patty's favorite sport and

During the summer of 1955, the Class of 1957 lost both a friend and classmate, Patricia Jane Klinger. Patty was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. LeRoy Klinger. She had one sister and one brother; Virginia, age 11 and Scott, age 9. Patty attended the Harris Township School until eighth grade when she joined the rest of the Class of 1957 in the high school. She was a true friend and popular among her classmates and soon proved to be a definite addition to our class. \i\lhile in school, Patty participated in many activities . She was home room vice-president during her sophomore year and also a member of the Girls' Glee Club.

she enjoyed practicing on her clarinet. She rarely played in public; her clarinet was a personal relaxation. One of Patty's personal hobbies was an extensive salt and pepper shaker collection. Patty was fully a,vare of her illness, and she faced squarely the knowledge that she would soon be leaving us . In spite of these facts, Patty always remained vivacious, cheerful, and serenely happy until her death. Although Patty has parted from us in death, her personality lingers vividly in the hearts of the Class of 1957.

AOMINISTRATION

ADMINISTRATION The Board of Education for the College Area Schools is comprised of thirty-t\'VO members representing College Township, Ferguson Township, Half Moon Township, Harris Township, Patton Township, and State College Borough. At its monthly meetings it takes care of all of the administrative problems confronting our schools . .Perhaps the most important job of the Board this year is the completing and equipping of the new senior high school. This has required countless hours of work and study on the part of the entire board in order that \Ve, at State High, may enjoy the finest in educational facilities . Most of us of the Class of 1957 remember our Supervising Principal, Mr. Roy S. Jamison, best as our junior high history teacher back in 1951. He was in the high school social studies department for sixteen years, and was assistant supervising principal two years before taking his present post. Mr. Robert Weir, State High's new Administrative Assistant, is no stranger in these parts. Before taking this position last summer, he taught in the industrial arts department in the high school for twelve years, and served State High in the capacity of football trainer and basketball coach.

CLASSES 18

INTRODUCTION TO THE CLASS How do you do, faculty, family and friends . As Little Leo, I would like to present the Class of '57. The class boasts 178 members, each one a fine school citizen. Under the leadership and guidance of Miss 1vlargaret 1vicVicker, the class guidance counselor, and Miss Elizabeth Morrow, the class social sponsor, the Class of '57 progressed through their last and most important year eagerly - ready and willing to do their best to make State High proud of them. Helping them along \.Vere the capible class officers, Bill Garner, George Meyer, Mardi Harnett, and John Tomco. One of the most appreciated rewards of their years of hard work was the class trip to \i\Tashington. This was a new experience for the school and even the teachers commented on the fun had by all and the co-operation received from everyone. Yes, each one has done his best to become ready to take his place in the world, and I am proud to present to you - the Class of '57.

CLASS HISTORY Little Leo turns back the hands of time to the years '39 and '40 when the Class of '57 came in with the hydrogen and atomic bombs. Then came a tragic five years; some of our dads went to war in Germany, Iwo Jima, and Guadalcanal. ,;ve were happy to see them come home in '45 vvhen we were starting school in various parts of the country. For some of us, it was a snap; others, not so easy. ,;ve had a variety of teachers, some as sonr as crabapples and others so sweet and fine we'll never forget them. Little Leo remembers many incidents in grade school - some were hilariously funny ancl embarrassing. Few Pine Grovers will ever forget the day when Mr. vVausat threw a piece of chalk at Jinx, missed, and hit Connie Corl sitting behind him! In College Heights, the main form of entertainment was boys against girls in baseball, and who will forget poor Stu Bischoff, scarred for life, when he fell down and cracked his teeth on the sidewalk? In sixth grade, most of us were brought together for the first time in Nittany Avenue School. There were three rooms of us, taught by Mr. O'Donnell, Mrs. Waite, and lviiss Guiser. At first there were some hard feelings between the Nittany Avenuers and "those stuck up College Heights kids," but these differences were

soon ironed out and we all became fast friends. A few of the old desks in the school still bear a memorial to Linda Chambers - green ink stains. In the fall of '51, the Class of '57, faces sc.rubbed clean, carrying new, full notebooks, breathlessly entered the gym entrance of the high school and sat down excitedly on the bleachers to await the bell. Strange teachers barked at us to "move to the top! " and believe Little Leo, we moved fast! After the bell rang, we were herded to our respective home rooms where we met oi1r home room teachers and received those confusing things known as schedules. Thank goodness they got easier to figure out as the years went on. The first competition of that year was junior high cheerleading. Cris Bell, Sue Lindsay, and Mary Ellen O'Brian were the lucky ones. Later, when Mary Ellen moved away, Deanna Hayes took her place. The first two years in junior high were spent learning the ropes, getting acquainted with new teachers, new friends, and learning new shortcuts through the building. The highlight of our eighth grade year was the "Bunny Hop," where Miss 1foVicker led us in a hilarious grand march. A_t the end of that year, Sally Jackson and John Pierce were presented with the American Legion Award.

School Secretary adding still another honor to our class. Betty Reeder and Zitty Stitzer were chairmen of the Christmas dance that year, Christmas Carousel. ,ve started decorating at the A.G.R. house for Christmas Carousel the clay before the dance. The girls showed they could be woodsmen as well as decorators by chopping down trees at Pat Cramer's. That night, we had a floor show at the spaghetti dinner in the basement of the fraternity when '~'iegie broke a chair in an amazing feat of balance! The next event was the Junior Plays where our class showed that they had dramatic talent 路 to boot. "Bobby Sox," and "Feuclin' i\fountain Boys" provided the comedy, while "Four on a Heath" chilled the audience. Soon after, we presented "Over the Rainbow," our Junior Prom. Nancy Corl and Stan Smith were chairmen. Handicapped by a late snow, we had some riotous times, such as driving to Bellefonte the morning of the dance for crepe paper, doing about 35 miles an hour. Some fun, right, Nancy? ,ve finished decoratii1g the night of the dance about eight o'clock, but it ,vas all for the good of the class. Is that the way you looked at it, George? Next up was the Junior Class Talent Show, Toast of '57, a take off on Toast of the Town. Pat Ricciardi and Carol Showers did a swell job

Nancy '~'erner had the most memorable party of the season, as those who were there can testify. To tell the truth, Little Leo was just a wee bit shocked at some of our eager beavers! Poor Leo! Before he had a chance to recover, we displayed our talents (?) again at Cris Bell's New Year's Eve party with a midnight show afterwards. The next social event ,vas the Soph Hop. Terry Albrecht and John Pierce were C'hairmen, and again our class showed its stuff. "i\il elody of Spring" was the theme. vVith wonderful co-operation from everyone, needless to say, it was a huge success. Before you could say "Little Leo," the summer was over and the grind began again. Little Leo was proud of our football team, of course, and very proud of the members of the Class of '57 on the team. Joe Yukica was coach that year, and b elieve me, the girls supported the team in full force . ( Or was it the coach they supported?) The kettle finally came back that year, to the sweet tune of 20-14, and our mascot was a paper mache lion, contributed by the Class of '57. Dub kept our class meetings in order that year. Tiff, Patsy Oaks , and Sally Jackson were the other officers. Sue Lindsay was elected All

of organizing our hit. The Toastettes displayed their dancing talents, and we found out, much to cur horror, what would have happened if a fe,v of our fellas had been girls. Orma Struble's cabin party afterward completed a wonderful evening. The Class of '58 had a beautiful Soph Hop that year, and we were happy to see that they were following in our footsteps with outstanding dances. As you remember, we had a good bit of social life that year, for the next event was the Inaugural Ball. Tiff was elected All School Prexy, and Ham, his Vice-President. Bill Garner, George i\foyer, Mardi Harnett, and John Tomco were our class officers for the most important coming year. All too soon, school ended and our last summer together began. Under Carol's guidance, the work on the Maroon and Gray started, and we had meetings galore. Pageant writing committee meetings also started and then we had our senior pictures taken, bringing graduation closer than ever before. 路when school started, it was sort of a shock not to have anyone to look up to and to see our boys on hall patrol, patiently (?) informing little wee seventh graders which way to go.

Football brought good times and many injuries . Ham's broken leg took many of us to visit the hospital in Bellefonte while John Pierce's broken arm kept him out of the Bellefonte game. Our school looked especially snappy that year, with new band uniforms, a newly formed pep club, and new cheerleading uniforms. Yes, we had reached the ultimate goal in our high school careers. Vle will never forget those who weren't there to share the final year with us: Pat Klinger, who left us in the summer of '55 for a far happier world; Myles Altimus , Mary Artz, Don Jorgeson, Ben Henszey, Kay Mitchell, Judy and Tom Michaels, Judy Ficca, Susan Korte, Liz Porter, Anne Marbut, Phyllis Humphrey, and others who are attending schools in all parts of the country; Art Stine, now in the Navy; and, of course, Gussy Gearhart and Alice i\tiastalski, our two married members who each have a baby. As we walked down the graduation line in June of '57, we remembered all the problems, big and small, and petty little things that bothered us, but most of all, we reI1.1embered the wonderful times we had together and how we wished we could do it all over again.

FRESHMEN After being the poor, overworked model who posed for so many terriffic portraits, I certainly pounced on the chance to cover a class - especially after I received the Class of 1960 as my assignment. Now time was limited and after ,discovering that though I was owner of a remarkable sense of smell, I lacked a nose for news, I became a desperate little lion. So-o-o, I employed the assistance of several buddin5 journalists. They collected the facts, just the facts, and I applied my poetical genius resulting in a work of lion art. PORTRAIT OF THE FRESHMEN One word could best describe this class, Every single lad and lass, Ambitious. Joining in every activity, That could be joined by you or me. ';!,' here ,do they get their everlasting energy? Football, Wrestling, and Basketball, Sports for winter, spring, and fall. Melodies, voices, sweet and fair, Freshmen music is in the air. The "Nittany Journal" became illustrious, Because of a staff that was quite industrious. The Junior High paper came into its own, Under th e ninth grade journalism classes. New privileges this year were given the class, Giving new stature to them en-masses. The Freshmen this year had the privilege Of attending the mixers and several of the dances.

BAND Sparked by snappy new uniforms and top coats, the band has become an outstanding music organization. Starting with a band of thirty-four ten years ago , Mr. Hege, through patient and capable, leadership has built a formidable one-hundred-twenty-two piece band. This year the band produced many exciting, and interesting football routines. The home fans and those from visiting schools all praised the band's brilliant performances which featured flawless precision and fast-changing formations. During the annual Band Day at the Pennsylvania State University, our band was the largest of the sixty visiting bands. The band gave a fine performance in Vlilliamsport where they gave a concert for the :Masons. In i\!Iarch the band gave a concert to a packed house in Recreation Hall for the annual state wrestling finals. The highlight of the concert season was the finished performance the band gave at their annual spring band concert featuring the world premiere of an overture written by ex-student teacher, James Burden. 62

GIRLS GLEE

BOYS GLEE

The Girls' Glee Club is a selective organization for senior high girls. The club members over a hundred melodic voices. The girls can be found rehearsing every \iVednesday and Friday in the auditorium third period. Since "Little Leo" likes girls, he's usually not far away just as far as the piano, for that's his favorite spot for listening to the girls. The girls are planning a concert for spring. Under the direction of Miss Susan McNinch, the girls have been singing mostly show tunes. Officers are: President, Pam Enander, who moved at the beginning of the year ; Vice-President, Gretchen Heim; Secretary, Anne Smith, and Treasurer, Diana Neiman.

The Boys' Glee Club, under the direction of ~fr. Richard Thorne, is a musical organization to which all senior high boys who like to sing can b elong. This year b ecause of increased interest the group had to be divided up. Some of the boys went to Room 123, where they were under the direction of Frank Podleisik anci Clair Krone student directors from the University. The rest went with Mr. Thorne to Room 215. The entire group sings for a Lenten Service and radio programs throughout the year as well as for their own enjoyment.

POLKA DOTS

1st, left to right: Vierck, Sprague, Cole, Bittner. 2nd: Bischoff, Pierce, Houts, Fisher.

The Polka Dots are eight boys selected from A Cappella Choir by competitive try-outs each year. Affiliated with the choir, and directed by Mr. Thorne, these boys sing for the Annual Christmas and Spring Concerts . In addition, they sing at many other school and community functions. They practice weekly and sing both male glee club melodies and barbershop harmony. "Little Leo" tunes his ears in on these boys at every opportunity, for they are a well known group throughout the school and community. Members are: Bill Fisher and vVayne Cole, first tenor; Stuart Bischoff and Bob Vierck, second tenor; Freel Houts and Dave Bittner, first bass; and John Pierce and Bob Sprague, second bass.

TEN TONES Ten Tones is a group of girls who are chosen from A Cappella Choir. The girls are selected each year at try-outs by Richard Thorne and the previous members. They hold weekly rehearsals under the leadership of choir director, Richard Thorne. The group performs for both th e Spring and Christmas Concerts given by the A Cappella Choir, as well as different organizations throughout the year.

A CADDELLA CHOIR The A Cappella Choir is the senior choral musical organization at State High. Composed of 116 members of the 10th, 11th, and 12th grades, the Choir meets Monday, Tuesday, and Friday X period, as well as sectional rehearsals on 路wednesday and Thursday afternoon. Membership in A Cappella is obtained through competitive auditions hel~l in the spring of the preceding year. Grades are determined by several other auditions throughout the year, particularly before each of the annual Christmas and Spring concerts. In this way, improvement is encouraged.

Director

This is the third year that the Choir has been under the leadership of its present director, Richard Thorne. Mr. Thorne came to us in 1954 from South New Berlin, New York, where he taught after his graduation from :tviansfield State Teachers College.

CHOIR One unique feature of this year's choir, is the importance of individual application . All concert music is sung, strictly from memory; consequently, the conductor has the entire attention of every choir member. Another new idea, is the control of the section leaders over the various sections. The section leader keeps roll in his or her section, enforces rules, and teaches new music to students in sectional rehearsals. Each year a few members of the choir are chosen to attend the South Central District Chorus, which was held this year at Bald Eagle Joint High School. The highest ranking student from district events is then sent to the PMEA All-State Chorus. Members of A Cappella have their social activitie3 too, such as post-concert open houses, pot-luck suppers, and climaxed by the Choir picnic at the end of the year.

PLAYS This year the Class of 1958 presented two one act plays and several novelty acts. "Dress Reversal" proved to be interesting as it was an all male cast, headed by Bob Lenker, Elmer Milton, Jerry Wettstone and John Glenn. "Shock of his Life," the other play presented, highlighted Dick O'Connell, Jinny Ricker and Bob Young as leads . Terry Weaver, Bill Gutteron, John \iVagner, Lynn Christy, Nadine Gallagher, and Steve Schlow participated in the novelty numb ers.

The Class of 1957 presented three one act plays their junior year. "Four on a Heath" was an abstract, dramatic play about four friends who met in their graves. Steve Hench, Bob Juba, Dave Bittner starred. Anne Smith played "Bobby Sox," a typical teenager with problems in a play of the same name. "Feudin' Mountain Boys" was really a feud when two hillbilly families made arrangements for a wedding. Judy Frederick, Patsy Oaks, Glenn Smith, Deanna Hayes and Dick Lee had lead roles.

THESPIANS National Thespian Troupe 175 is the drama society of State High. This year they presented a three act comedy, "The Little Dog Laughed" starring Dick Lee and Pam Enander. Under the leadership of the officers, Bob Juba, president; John Reid, vicepresident; Judy Frederick, secretary; and Roberta ,vasson, treasurer; and our sponsor, 1vlr. Glenn Shaffer, they held two initiations and sponsored two mixers.

"Don't pull that trigger!"

MAROON and GRAY "Deadline tomorrow?!" "How am I supposed to do that?" "You'll have to work faster. There isn't much time." So went some of the familiar conversation between members of the Maroon and Gray staff. There always seemed to be too much work and too little time. However, with everyone prodding everyone else, our yearbook seemed to

Showers, Miss Geuther, sponsor.

grow and "Little Leo" became more and more satisfied with his store of information. The staff worked hard under the leadership of Sue Lindsay, our editor in chief. "Little Leo" seemed well satisfied with Sue. He also had special praise for our literary editor, Carol Showers. When asked about some of the details of preparing the yearbook, "Little Leo" invited us to sit down while he told ll3 the rest of the Maroon and Gray story. Roberta 路wasson, in charge of underclasses, impressed him with h er efficiency, and would make her deadline easily; well, he thought so anyway. Mardi Harnett and John Kardos headed the activities section and although they had rough going, "Little Leo" thought that they

would make it in time. The athletics section was more of a problem. Glenn Smith and Bob Rutherford were in charge here. They were on schedule, but the problem of winter sports making the deadline date was a real roadblock. "Little Leo" 路expressed confidence, however, that Glenn and Bob would iron out this problem.

The section on Seniors with Polly I'vlitten and Mike Norviel in charge was coming off very well. ThE-y were assisted by Terry Albrecht, will and history; Susan Stitzer, Captions; and Judy Frederick, statistics. These three girls were to be commended for their fine work. "Leo" thought that everyone would agree that Mike and Polly did a swell job on the pictures. Ellen Quarles and her assistants were doing a bang-up job on advertisements. "Leo" figured she and her crew were due much praise. Certainly there was a lot of footwork involved here. Lots of credit can also be given to Charles "Skip" Haworth for handling the circulation department so well. Skip and his assi;.tants drew much praise from "Little Leo." Many thanks also went to Sally Jackson, our business manager, and her assistants. "Leo" also praisecl head typist I'vlary Linn Poorman and her assistants and Pat H. i cc i a r cl i, Beverly Higashida, and Bill Schoenbeck for their fine work on art and publicity. "Little Leo" had much admiration for Miss Genther, who gave so much of her time and effort in helping to make our yearbook a success. "Little Leo" finished up our discussion by agreeing with us that we had put together one of the finest yearbooks ever by hard work and teann,vork among the staff.

Little Leo has developed quite a nose for news from working with Mr. Dallam and his Piper Staff this past year. Each month in room 215 that staff hurries to get out its four-page publication. The paper includes the latest school news, fashions, jokes, cartoons, and a personality column on the seniors. Little Leo was surprised to find that despite all the work that the staff had to do that they still found time to put on a Talent Show last February and this spring the staff sponsored a big and successful block dance. 路 The staff was headed by Co-editors, Ellen Quarles and Carol Showers.

These points are based on: twelve points for participation, three points for a letter, and minus twenty points for quitting a sport without good reason.

FOOTBALL Beginning practice sessions August 18, the team worked out twice a clay until they moved to Camp Nik-0-Mahs for a full week of intensive drills. The gridders opened up against Moshannon Valley and showed good potential in coming from behind to win the game. After this game, the Little Lions were hard hit by injuries. John Pierce suffered a broken wrist and Jinx Fry hurt his knee, in State's first game, and were unable to play again until the fourth game. In the third game of the year against Hollidaysburg, Ham Foster broke his leg and was lost for the remainder of the season. Later in the . year Pierce again broke his wrist and was unable to play in the last few games. As everyone knows the team never ceased to fight and ended the season on a happy note in defeating Bellefonte.

Besides the three seniors previously mentioned who were injured during the year, State had eight other seniors who performed well all season. John Tomco, a guard, was given credit for a safety in the first game and along with Bill Garner, another guard, played well throughout the season. Jesse Harbold, a center on offense and linebacker of defense, was praised for his hard tackling. Jim Crust, a tackle, considered our best lineman stopped many plays before they started. Gary Williams and George Meyer were two of our best ends and halted many plays. Paul Gibson and Ed Bohn our hard running halfbacks, were thought to be two of the finest in the area. Bohn was voted one of the top 33 in the state of Pennsylvania by the State's sport writers.

"Little Leo" was quite proud of the State College High head football Coach William Leonard better known in his high school days as "Leo." ~fr. Leonard was a graduate of the high school in 1949. He was a member of the last undefeated football team and also starred on the basketball team as a forward and a catcher for the baseball team. After graduation Bill attended Penn State for four years and played left halfback on the football team. Coach Leonard also kicked the extra points. Upon leaving college, he spent two years in the service where he played football for Fort Monmouth. Mr. Leonard was hired by the school in 1955 as assistant football coach and Social Studies teacher. After serving the 1955 season as assistant coach, he stepped up a notch to head coach where a fin e job was turned in. vVe at State High wish to thank him for a job well done.

State 20 - Moshannon 6 State High, under new head coach Bill Leonard, looked very good upon winning their first game of the year. After Moshannon had kicked off, Ed Bohn stole the spotlight. Bohn took the ball on the State 35 and raced 65 yards for the touchdown. Other stars offensively were: Ham Foster, Jinx Fry, and Paul Gibson. Defensively, Bob Lenker, Gary \i\Tilliams, and Jesse Harbold stood out at the linebacker posts and end positions. Bohn, State High's fleet-footed halfback, scored twice while Tohn Pierce went over for the other touchdo,vn on a quarterback sneak.

State O- Lock Haven 31 Plagued by injuries, State High went to Lock Haven without the services of the two starting quarterbacks, John Pierce and Jinx Fry. Powerful Lock Haven made things even blacker by scoring one touchdown every period and rolling up the score. One of the brighter points of the game was Eddie Bohn's fine running in the third quarter. Even in defeat, fine defensive work was turned in by Paul Gibson, Tesse Harbold and Ed Bohn. 路

State 13 - Hollidaysburg 20 State High played a fine Hollidaysburg team which proved itself by some fine blocking, tackling, and running, in beating a much improved State High eleven. Ed Bohn went seven yards for the first touchdown in the first quarter. Hollidaysburg drove right back to deadlock the game at seven all at the encl of the first quarter. The "Tigers" scored again in the second and third quarters. Bohn took a Heim pass in the fourth quarter for State's other score. State High lost their great fullback, Ham Foster, when he broke his leg in the fourth quarter of the game. State O- Clearfield 25 State High lost their third rough and tumble football game to the Clearfield Bisons 25 to 0. State had the services of their two returning quarterbacks, John Pierce and Jinx Fry, who came off the injured list for the game. Ed Bohn and Jinx Fry moved for most of the yardage State could pound out. John Pierce put State out of a rut in the third quarter when he booted a punt from his own 29 yard line to the Bison's end zone for a total of 71 yards. Defensively Jim Crust and Ed Bohn were standouts in the losing cause. 80

State 12 - Lewistown 27 State High lost their fourth straight ball game but while losing it "Little Leo" found out that no matter how big a team you're facing, if you play your heart out you can do a fine job. Eddie Bohn again came into the limelight as he scored both touchdowns, one on a twenty-nine yard off-tackle slant, and the other on a four-yard sneak. Eel also accounted for some fine defensive plays. Defensively, State was led by Jim Crust, Gary \iVilliams, Bruce Heim, and Jesse Harbold. Incidentally, Bohn was again picked off the top 33 of the State for this week.

State O-

Huntingdon 41

Scoring four quick touchdowns, Huntingdon rolled over State High by a score of 41 to 0. The Tigers' first two touchdowns came on two successive fumbles in the first four minutes of the game. John Pierce and Paul Gibson did most of State's running in the first half but to no avail as "Little Leo" saw his State team trailing 34 to O at halftime. In the second half, State held Huntingdon to one touchdown and some fine running was turned in by Scott Harshbarger and John \,Volfe, a couple of fine sophomore backs. Jim Crust led State's defensive team. State 14 - Philipsburg 20 "Little Leo" was again disappointed as State High again lost their sixth game in a real thriller. With about 35 seconds left in the game, Phil Gill punted ~hort and Philipsburg took over on the State thirty-yard line. Three plays later, Ken Dixon went over for the final tally from the six-yard line. "Little Leo" saw Ed Bohn come off the bench to score both of the State touchdowns. One touchdown came on a 20-yard run through right tackle. John Wolfe and Scott Harshbarger played a fine game, both offensively and defensively.

State O-

Tyrone 36

It took Tyrone's "Golden Eagles" only eight plays to push over their first score. The score increased to 20 to O at halftime due to their hard running backfield. Tony Scordo, the Eagle's fleetfooted scat-back, did a good job of hurting the Lions with his long runs. Tyrone's big line also played an important part in the 36 to O final score. Paul Gibson and Ed Bohn moved well on the ground even against Tyrone's huge line. Jesse Harbold and Scott Harshbarger, State's two linebackers, played a good defensive game. 91

BELLEFONTE GAME

"Victory is ours again!"

S'tate 7

Bellefonte O

Jumping up and down after the game, "Little Leo" was heard saying, "A terrific game and won only on the fine team play of the whole State High eleven." How right "Little Leo" was as the "old iron kettle" once again placed a shadow on the trophy case of State High. Bellefonte pushed State all over the field in the first half, but could not score, for ,vhen the chips were clown, State held. Hampered by four hunbles in the first half, then coming vvithin the eight yard line, State managed to leave the field at halftime with a nothing to nothing tie. State came out at halftime and kicked off to Bellefonte. On the first 路 play, Les McClellen picked up five yards to the Bellefonte 30 yard

line. On the next play, Billy Sharp, tribe quarterback, was caught in his own backfield and hit very hard by Ed Bohn and Tom Beaver, Sharp fumbled the ball and Jerry Witherite picked up the ball on a mad scramble and went 25 yards for the only touchdown of the ball game. Eddie Bohn then rushed for the extra point. Bohn incidentally scored in the iron kettle clash for the third straight year. After that it was a see-saw game with neither team doing too much until the encl with about 2 minutes left in the game Jinx Fry, alternating quarterback sneaks with encl plays by Bohn, and Scott Harshbarger drove to the Bellefonte 15 yard line. State's defensive game was the forward wall , which held time after time, led by Jim Crust, Joe Krawiec, Tom Beaver, Jesse Harbold, Jim vVilliams, and Gary ,villiams.

Never a dull moment in ,the annual local rivalry contest.

Earlier in the year Bob Heiser, the work-horse of the team, went for State's only touchdown in a losing cause to Clearfield on a 65-yard gallop up the middle of the field. Heiser also performed yeoman service all through the game as he set a junior high record by gaining 218 yards against the Baby Bisons. Lemmie \i\Tarner, another fine halfback, 路was also a main factor in the junior high's good season as he scored four touchdowns and was also a fine defensive halfback. Chuck Hamilton, right end, was Ferguson's main target on the pass plays along with George Brown. The line was led by guard Jan Miller and center John Davison. State won over Tyrone, Hollidaysburg, and Bellefonte. They lost to Lock Haven, Lewistown, and Clearfield.

John Pierce, a three year veteran, proved to be probably the best all around player, excelling in rebounding. Football star, Eddie Bohn, and track star, Bill Schoenebeck, filled out the first fiv e. Bohn and Schoenebeck were two of the finest play-makers in the district. John Glenn, a junior, developed from th e start of the year and by the encl of the year became a fine backcourt man.

BASKETBALL State High's first two game., of a five game non-league schedule were with an old rival, Bellefonte. The first game was a home encounter, with State coming out in front by four points. John Pierce and Glenn Smith led the way with their scoring and rebounding. The second tilt was played at Bellefonte, with State again coming out ahead by eleven points this time. Pierce and Smith again played fine games, they were helped in the s c o r i n g department by Bill Schoenebeck, who hit well from outside. Junior, Jerry vVitherite, also played a fine game. State next played two tough ball clubs. Huntingdon and Hollidaysburg, on the following Friday and Saturday nights. Glenn Smith carried most of the load against Huntingdon pouring in twenty-three points. It was a losing cause as the Bearcats hit on a close to fiftv per cent from the field. The following night Hollidaysburg, the eventual winner of the i\fountain League came to State and walked away with an easy victory. Bob Rutherford led the Little Lions with the highest output of any State player to that point, twenty-six markers. In the closing game of the exhibition tilts, Huntingdon came to State College to try and put the Little Lions away for a second time. Thev found this impos::ible, as State caught up and passed the Bearcats in the fourth quarter, to win 49-48. Rutherford led the scoring, and Pierce who followed him turned in another fine game under the boards. State opened the league against a young Penns Valley team and won by a large margin. It was a team victory with Bohn, Schoenebeck, Smith, and Rutherford all hitting in double figures. The Maroon next took on a tough Lock Haven team. State's rebounding strength outweighed Lock Haven's shooting ability. The Bobcats led by Jim Casey hit on 48 per cent of their shots. Glenn Smith high for twenty-seven big points, this later proved to be the season high for 5tate. He was followed by Eddie Bohn, who played a good all' round game in scoring twenty points.

Bohn, Rutherford, and Schoenebeck scored in the double figures to lead the Maroon.

Renovo completely dominated the overtime period scoring seven points to State's zero. Bob Rutherford led all scorers with twenty-two points. State played its best passing game against Chief Logan in beating them by almost thirty points. Smith and Rutherford each had twenty markers for the Little Lions. John Pierce played his usual fine game under the boards and collected fourteen points. Jersey Shore dominated the play for the first three quarters in their second game with State. The Maroon made their move in the fourth quarter scoring twenty-one, but fell short by two. Glenn Smith finished high for State with twentyone markers. Bob Rutherford was ten for eleven from the foul line for the second straight time helping Smith in the scoring. Renovo' s powerhouse was slowed down by the fight of the Little Lions until the la:;t quarter when they connected for the last nine points . Pierce and Smith led the work under the boards, with Schoenebeck and Rutherford leading the scoring. Chief Logan defeated the Maroon in a game that was the closest throughout as any game played all year. At the end of the half the score was tied at 29 all. By the ei1d of the third quarter the Mingoes owned a lead of two points. State closed the gap to one by the end of the game, but that was the best they could do. Smith again led all scorers. The Bobcats of Lock Haven converted Little Lion errors to hand them their fourth loss in a row. John Pierce played his best g:m1e of the }'ear both in scoring twenty points and rebounds. Rutherford and Smith were next in the scoring parade. State ended the season on a bright note in defeating Penns Valley.

Bohn and Schoenebeck looked good in setting up the fast breaks.

The boys gaining wins in the meet were Tom Balent, Jim Byers, Phil Gill, Paul Gibson, Bob L enker, and Jim Crust. The Lions first and only defeat came at the hands of unbeaten Philipsburg. The Lions fought hard but lost 25-13. Then "Little Leo" climbed back into the driver's seat and stayed there the rest of the year. Tyrone

fell beneath the Lions 33-11. State was never behind in the meet as they surprised a good Tyrone team. Then the Maroon traveled to Chief Logan where for the first time in State High's history every boy pinned his man. The final score read State 59, Chief Logan 0. Lewistown fared a little better but were beaten 34-11. Then came the highlight of the wrestling season, the traditional match with the Red Raiders of Bellefonte. Not since 1948 had State beaten Bellefonte. But there was a gleam in "Little Leo's" eyes as a very determin ed State High team took to the mats. State jumped into a fast lead

100

and never faltered as they grinded out a very satisfying 28-l,4 victory. Tom Balent, Dick Tressler, Jim Byers, Phil Gill, · Ben Whitehill, Bob Lenker, and Jim Crust got the wins at Bellefonte. Clearfield became the next Lion victim as they fell 19-16. Neither team was ahead by more than 3 points and the meet was tied six times. Hollidaysburg was beaten by the Lions 29-12. The Lions kept rolling by trouncing DuBois 43-3. Bald Eagle Area became victim number 10 as they fell 42-5. In their last outing of the dual meet season, the Liom wrapped up a big upset by beating Bald Eagle Nittany 25-16. BEN had won 26 matches without defeat before bowing to the Maroon. This was State's ninth straight victory without defeat and the eleventh win of the season. Those boys gaining wim at BEN were Tom Balent, Terry Shaffner, Dick Tressler, Jim Byers, Phil Gill, Ben Whitehill, and Jim Crust.

The State High track team kicked off the 1957 season with Danville, who proved to be a tough foe for the Little Lions. Once again the team participated, for two years in succession, in the Juniata Relays held at Juniata College in Huntingdon. The harriers sent mile and two mile relay teams to the Penn Relays at Philadelphia, on April 26 and 27th. Other important meets for coach Jackson Horner were the Central Counties, D~1Bois Relays , Coaches Relays, Districts and States.

first meet by a narrow margin of one point to Johnstown. Bill Schoenebeck, Jim Thomas, Tony Felice, Pete Mueller and Terry Slagle rounded out State's first five men. The team bounced back to defeat Altoona 20-36. Schoenebeck, i\1Iueller, Thomas, Felice and O'Connell proved to be the nucleus of the scoring. Williamsport edged by State in its third dual meet, 26-29. Schoenebeck was timed in 11:20 followed by Felice, Thomas, and Mueller. Taking third in the Districts only qualified two men for the States-Felice and Schoenebeck. Running in the State meet, Schoenebeck took second with a time of 11: 11 with Felice 94th out of 161 runners. Mueller was elected the "57" captain and should prove to be a good competitor.

Through the coaching of Jackson Horner the State High cross-country team ended the season with 1 win and 2 losses, third in the District and two boys entered in the States. They lost the

SPRING SPORTS SUMMARY "Little Leo" watched the lights grow dim and the last mat rolled up as the State High gym was closed, for the last winter sports event was over. The following day "Little Leo" heard the loud ,bouts of "Throw it," "Slide," "You're out," coming from the community field as State's baseball candidates took the field for the start of the year's practice. Coach John Hanna has four returning lettermen: all seniors, Joe Taylor, Ham Foster, Jinx Fry, and Gary Williams . Foster led last year's team in hitting. Last year's team ended up with a 3-win and 5-loss record. Coach Hanna will be playing without the services of Qick Stine, George Moore, Roy Markle, Clair Lutz, Frank King, and catcher "Bubba" Beans. Hanna has a fine replacement behind the plate in Joe Taylor. . Pitching is well taken care of as all three pitchers are returning as lettermen.

The Tennis team under the watchful eye of Coach John Long was also getting ready to begin practice in the tennis courts outside the community field without a letterman. "Little Leo" thus decided to take a trip to Beaver Field where the State High track candidates were working out. Coach Jackson Horner has a number of lettermen returning plus his acemiler, Bill Schoenebeck and the other co-captain , John Tomco. The team will be bolstered by Jerry Slagle, Terry Slagle, George Kerstetter, and Eddie Bohn. Coach Horner will be short weight men but Bruce Heim is his number one candidate. State High's golf team will have Bob Rutherford, j\1like Smith, and Stan Smith to help Coach Kemmerer, Jr. to what we hope will be a successful season. 103

GIRLS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Girls Athletic Association is made up of all Senior High Girls who have an A. A. Ticket. The Girls Athletic Board is a group of 17 girls who serve as the governing body for all girls sports.

The board consists of two freshmen, four sophomores, five juniors, and six seniors. The board not only

regulates outside girls' sports activities but also sponsors a mixer for its initiates, and in the spring, a banquet at which awards are presented and new officers installed. This year's officers ar,e Mardi Harnett, president; Betty Henszey, vice-president; Anne Bramble, secretary; Betty McCown, treasurer. Mrs. Hamill and Mrs . Heck are the faculty advisors.

GIRL'S LEADERS CLLJB Girls' Leaders Club is an honorary athletic club for senior high girls. These girls are voted in either at the end of the year or the beginning of the new year. During club the girls play the different sports so they can learn skills, techniques, and rules of various games . They have practice in refereeing so they can assist in Physical Education classes. The aim of the club is to train girls to set

examples of good sportsmanship and to enable others to learn and understand games better. The Girls' Leaders Club participated in a volleyball exhibition game for junior high girls to show them the correct way to play. This year's officers are: Betty Henszey, president; Polly Mitten, vice-president; Susan Stitzer, secretary-treasurer. Mrs. Hamill is the faculty advisor. 105

GIRLS VARSITY 13ASKETl3ALL Swish! Swish! Swish! Ever since the girls started basketball, they can't miss. At least that's how it was for the giris on the varsity and junior varsity basketball teams . Most of them, anyway. Making up the varsity team were Phyl Thomas, Betty Henszey, Anne Smith, Jean Smith, Ann Bramble and Shelby S mi th-forwards; Mardi Harnett, Polly iVIitten, Sue Lindsay, Joan Horner, Nancy Campbell, Barbara Sprout and Joan Taylor-guards . The schedule for the team this year consi=ted of two games, one away at Bald Eagle on March 8 and one at home with Bald Eagle also on the following week. Those who played for junior varsity were Donna Litke, Sandy Farrell, Marie Hawbaker, and Cris Richer-forwards ; Betty McCown, Tish Shawley, Judy Houser, Gretche1; Kauffman, Patty Glass and Janie Bernreuter-guards. G. A. A. is an organization in which rules and regulations are set up . The members are to guide other interested girls through the activities in which the girls can participate. The president this year was iVIarcli Harnett; vice-president,

Betty Henszey; secretary, Anne Bramble; and treasurer, Betty McCown. The G. A. A. Board initiated eight new members for thi3 year: one senior, Polly Mitten; three juniors, Mary Ellen O'Connell, Ruth Hall, Carolyn Davidson; two sophomores, Shelby Smith, Sue Henderson; and two freshmen, Sandy Smith and Janet Hartman. At their initiation, February 8, they came to school dressed as Frogmen in flippers, sweat shirts, sweat pants and goggles. The other girls' athletic club is Girls' Leaders . This club puts on exhibition games of volleyball and basketball and acts as a helper in all of the girls' gym classes. At the end of every year the club votes on who they think could explain the rules of games to their classmates and therefore release seniors and welcome the new members. The officers for Girls' L eaders this year were Betty Henszey, president; Polly :M itten, vicepresident; Susan Stitzer, secretary-treasurer. Under the sup ervision of Mrs. Hamill and Mrs. Heck, the girls participating in the athletic clubs and sports events realize the importance of two fine sponsors.

HISTORY OF BOWLING Each year a mob of girls hurry down to sign up for bowling on the appointed day. The first 96 girls are the fortunate ones. Every Thtirsday these girls trudge down to the Dux Club to try their luck. The girb divide themselves into groups of six, take their assigned alley and proceed to learn the fundamentals of bowling and how to score. They pair up and take turns setting up pins. Each team is competing for first place and each girl is attempting to place first as the highe3t individual. The girls are charged 15c a piece and for this must set up their own pins. The money, fixing of averages, posting them, and completing articles for the paper are done by Janet Hartman and Sandy Smith. Janet and Sandy get this position by being the only ninth grade members in G. A. A. Mrs. Heck, our sponsor, does a terrific job helping the girls learn to bowl.
