We feel that the theme of the 1965 CLAY TABLET - the growth of the Claymont Public School System - is especially ap- propriate because our class was the original first grade in the Green Street Ele- mentary School. In 1805, the Claymont Public School System consisted of a one-room building, the Old Stone School. By 1917, the enrollment had increased until it became nec- essary for other schools to be established to alleviate the crowded conditions. The Board of Education purchased a 2V2 acre site on Green Street where construction began in 1923. This school, now known as Old Main, opened her doors to students in September 1925. Her first class, composed of eleven seniors, was graduated in june 1929. Between 1928 and 1935, additional wings were constructed to provide classrooms. The Board of Education made plans for modernization of the high school to meet demands of the student enrollment. A Science Wing with laboratory facilities, a spacious library and classrooms was added. A Shop Building and Gymnasium were built to provide more facilities for industrial arts and physical education. With the ever-increasing population of the district, it became necessary to build elementary schools. Green Street Elementaryi 1 School, Darley Road Elementary School, and Maple Lane Elementary School are the results of the district's growth. Each has facilities for cafeteria and gymnasium and kindergarten. Thoughout its history, Claymont Special School District has been a growing, moving, and ever-changing district that is endeavoring to educate its youth of to- day to be the adults and leaders of tomorrow. EDITOR'S MESSAGE A yearbook is a huge project which requires the combined efforts of many. I wish to thank all those staff members and our advisors, Mrs. Dilworth and Miss Anderson, who contributed their time and talents to make this edition of the CLAY TABLET a reality. When you reach the last page of the CLAY TABLET, I believe you will pause to look back upon the school year. The CLAY TABLET is a record of that year in words and pictures which will grow in meaning as time passes. It is my hope that the school year, 1964-1965, was a happy and memorable year for you and that many more will follow. Marsha Ewachiw, Editor 2 DEDICATION The class of 1965 respectfully dedicates this edition of the CLAY TABLET to Miss Edith J. Anderson. Serving as the head adviser of our class for our junior and senior years, Miss Anderson has given her time and energy unstintingly for the good of individual members and of the entire class. Miss Anderson came to Claymont High School in September, 1958, as a teacher of home economics. After sewing successfully as a teacher and cafeteria superviser in the New jersey public schools. Her pleasant smile and willingness to help oth- ers have made her a valuable asset to our school. Not only does she devote herself to her students and to the class of 1965, but Miss Anderson also is engaged in several projects of service and professional orga- nizations. She is a very active member of the Business and Professional Women's Clubg she is also a member of Alpha Delta Kappa, an international honorary teachers' sorority. She serves as a building representative of the Claymont Educa- tion Association and last summer traveled as a delegate to the convention of the National Education Association, held in Seattle, Washington. Therefore, with pride, we make this dedication to Miss Edith Anderson, who has placed service to our class and to others before personal convenience. 3 Claymont's Board ol' Education is composed ol' four elected mem- bers and the Superintendent of Schools. Each ol' the elected mem- bers serves a four-year term without pay. The Superintendent of Schools is by law the Secretary of the Board, but has no vote. It is the responsibility of the Board of Education to adopt policies necessary for the organization and operation of the schools, em- ploy the staff, levy taxes as determined by referendum, authorize expenditures, and act on any matter relating to the control of pub- lic schools. The Board exists only when it is in sessiong therefore, all decisions regarding school matters must be the result of Board action in a regular or scheduled meeting. BO RD OF EDUCATIO Board of Education 'Vir Raxinond E Tomaselti Mr C oseph Rosshirt, Mr. George E. Brown. Mr. Robert L, Dnrkee. Stepping to the podium to receive your diploma, you may realize that you could have done more. As you live your entire life, you may never fully realize your capability for productive work. A wholesome family member, a productive worker, a generous contributor to a strong community - all are yours to work at dai- ly. May you always be able to say I did my very bestf' J. B. Clinch Administrative Assistant TO THE SENIORS: You belong to a generation that will be tested by great crises - new ideas, new issues, perhaps by fire. MHY il be Said of you that when the world called for volunteers, for men of faith, of patience, of charityg you responded to the call of humane and brave living. R. L. Durkee Superintendent of Schools DISCIPLINE AND GUIDANCE: THE Mr, Haig Kupjian Principal NECESSITIES CF LIFE Education is the apprenticeship of life, sagely wrote Willmott. Do you agree with him? Have your years in school produced a successful ap- prenticeshipn? If not, this is the opportune time to do some serious thinking and just as serious acting. My sinoere best wishes to you on your graduation from Claymont High School. Haig Kupjian, Principal To the Graduates: Thomas Edison once said that his success was due to one percent inspiration and ninety-nine per cent perspiration. In other words, if you have learned good work habits during the last four years, you have been taught much. Don't make excuses, but try to make good. Remember that he is best educated who is most useful. Always remember these words of Horace Mann: Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for hu- manityf' H. Cunningham Assistant Principal Mr. Howard Cunningham Assistant Principal GUIDANCE The Guidance Office is a focal spot where counselors, students, parents, and teachers confer - aiming at all times to stimulate a desire within the individual to reach his highest potential. Two full-time counselors administer and interpret test data, distribute college information and applications, and disseminate infor- mation on vocational pursuits. Mrs. Griffiths and Mr. Phillips spend much time in face-to-face interviews with students, helping them to plan their futures wisely, with a knowl- edge of themselves. Mrs Helen Griffiths Guidance Counselors Guidance Counselor Mr. Henry Phillips 6 FACULTY xx Old Stone School - 1805 The first building in the Claymont Public School System was the Old Stone School, which is located at the intersection of Darley Road and the Wilmington- Philadelphia Pike near the geographical center of the school district. The Old Stone School was originally one room, built in 1805 on land donated by john Dickinson, the signer of the Declaration of Independence. The walls were constructed of native Brandywine granite. A Second room was added in 1905 as the school enrollment increased. By 1917 the number of pupils in the district had increased to 350 because several large companies had moved into the area. Each of these industries built its own school building to relieve the overcrowded Stone School. Although the increased school enrollment finally made necessary a move to a larger building, the Old Stone School had remained in active use. It housed the kin- dergarten classes until 1958 and still serves as the Claymont Public Library. ENGLISH DEP RTMENT Mr. David E. Owen B.A. Pennsylvania State University M.A. Pennsylvania State University Department Chaimtan Senior Play The main purpose ol' the English program is to develop accuracy of expression, oral and written. It is channeled with appreciation and good taste. However. citizens should be more than technically competent. 'liheir actions should be based on the great human values which support our civilization. The pupil must therefore be lifted to a higher level of concern so that he will be able to see beyond material matters For such development to occur. the English Department brings to the pupil the impact of the great forces of western culture. Each pupil is aided in systematically establishing his own code of ethics for all human relationships. Mrs. Margaret C. Hagarty B.A. University of Delaware B.S. University of Delaware M.Ed.

Successful courses introducing the principles of physics, chemistry, and biology have been insti- tuted in the seventh and eight-grade science classes. An encouraging experiment consisting of chemistry in the tenth- grade to be followed by biology in the eleventh, the reverse of the present teaching schedule, has been initiated this year. If it proves successful, this reversal may become pemianent. These and other planned changes in the science curriculum will bet- ter prepare the college-bound student for college work. For those who will not attend college, these improved courses will be of value in interpreting the varying scientific trends of today and tomorrow. Mrs. Laura Gracie 1380 Mr. Albert Parker B.S.

Americas future depends upon the ability of its high school graduates to assess these issues properly and resolve them intelligently. .-X partly enlightened citizenry breeds dis- sension. a luxury we cannot afford at this time when there is such an urgent need for national unity. A greater measure of common understanding is realized when more people arrive at solutions based on knowledge and critical evaluation. The greatest contribu- tion that a social studies teacher can make toward national strength through unity is to stinmlate the student's desire to learn more about our nation's social, economic, and political activities and to assist him in making objective Conclusions.

Middlebury College Since the majority of students who elect zt foreign lan- guage course are doing so to meet college entrance re- quirements, the primary aim of the language depart- ment is to give each of these students a mastery of the fundamentals in his chosen language within two years time. In all courses. whether it be French, Latin, or Spanish, an attempt is made to strengthen the student's knowl- edge of the English language by comparing and con- trasting its rules of grannnar. sentence structure, and vocabulary with those of his elected language. In addi- tion, an effort is made to instill in the student an ap- preciation and understanding of the culture of the peo- ple whose language he is studying.

It was not until 1923, however, that construction was begun on the building. When the building was opened in September, 1925, it accommodated grades one through nine. Each year another grade was added until, in june, 1929, Claymont graduated its first high school class, composed of eleven pupils. In 1928, the north and south wings of the building were constructed, providing additional classrooms to accommodate the increased enrollment. The west wing, which included vocational shops, gymnasium, cafeteria and kitch- en, was constructed in 1934-1935. THE DECISION -MAKERS Miss Anderson. Head Adviser Mrs. Johnson Nils. Nlintz Mr. Cottrell Senior Class Resume As freshmen, our class had its first taste of independence and respon- sibility.No longer merely one in a section of the eighth grade, each of us had to fi d h' ' ' n is own way through the school. New friendships were formed and old ones strengthened. When we became Sophomores we organized as a class and elected our officers. This was the year when we made plans for our class's future - what we would do, when we would do it, and how we could pay for it. In our Junior Year we purchased our rings and proudly wore them. The Sadie Hawkins Day Dance was a successg and the Junior Play, Thr Loud Rm' Patrick, was presented. After long months of anticipation and hard work, we presented the Junior-Senior Prom, The Enchanted Sea. Al- though the evening ended too soon, we realized that all this hard work had been worthwhile. Senior Year - was there really magic in the air? We were the voice of the school, the leaders. There were many happy timesg the activities were more fun, the friends more dear. There were so many memories: the Se- nior Christmas Partyg Senior Recognition Dayg our own edition of the Clay Tabletg the Class Giftg examsg and the Prom, presented to us - the Class of 1965! Then came graduation, and our class of two hundred members would never be together again - but the memories and the friends, the fun and the studies, have become part of us and they will never be forgotten. 26 ADVISERS A D OFFICERS Mr. O'Connor '65 Class Officers Treasurer Leslie Scheckmang Secretary.

The Class of 1965 has had the good fortune to know Elizabeth BabsU Valletti, our American Field Service foreign exchange stu- denti Visiting with us from Marseille, France, Babs' sunny disposition and sparkling per- sonality reflected the pleasant, happy atmos- phere of that Mediterranean seaport. Her good humor and readiness to enjoy life quickly won her a place in our senior class, indeed, in the entire school. It is not every year that a foreign exchange student comes to Claymont. We were ex- tremely lucky to have one, as charming and likeable as Babs. It is hard to remember our senior year without thinking of her. She was a delightful and integral part of the Class of 1965. 1- 1 6 iq 255, Q spawns f I tt Xxx f Qt' ?

As a class adviser for our Hrst three years, Mr. Channell has shown great interest in our class and its endeavors. Mr. Channell has taught French since joining the faculty of Claymont High School in 1951. Always active in Claymont student affairs, only his promotion to chair- man of the foreign language department caused him to give up the position as an adviser to our class. He form- erly sponsored the Clzanticleer for nine years, and he is currently the sponsor of the Claymont chapter of the Na- tional Honor Society. fff ,- DERCLASSME ix,-fi' f I . , N If . time Green Street Elementary School - 1950 In 1950, plans were made for the construction of an elementary school located at the head of Commonwealth Avenue. General Chemical Corporation donated 22.7 acres of land adjoining the southern and western boundaries of the high school building. This modern building added 25 classrooms and auxiliary rooms. The building was opened in September, 1953, for kindergarten through 6th grade. The class of 1965 was the original first grade class in the Green Street School.

In the new wing, adjoining the southern side of the high school building, there were provided classroom and laboratory facilities for the science, home economics, and foreign languages departments, as well as a modern spacious library. The offices of the Claymont Special School District an the high school administration are on the main floor. 93 M - A Q Q 4 - SEATED: R, Dixon. P. Rosshirt, E. Reed. D. Broomell, D. Gagan. V. C.

Vice President Larry Kellam, Treasurer 94 TUDE T COUNCIL The backbone of the student body is the Student Council. This is so because it is the organization that gels the expressed ideas of the students into some conceivable form, through planning and organiza- tion. That is why the selection of adequate officers is so vitally important if these plans are to materialize. Existing officers are those of president, vice-president, treasurer, secretary, and corresponding secretary. Augmenting the executive board are various home- room and class councilors. Some of the activities slated, under the leadership of John Skorupa, Student Council president, proved to be beneficial to the school. Plans were made for a magazine drive, a Valentines's Dance, and the Save the Children Federation Clothing Drive. Committees for the preparation of these projects are formed early in the year to assure their success.

Production Adviser Mrs. Dilworth Although the first publication of the CLAY TABLET does not go back to the age of cunieform inscriptions as its name suggests, this exaggeration would not be far from the truth. At first the yearbook was a literary publication and contained few, if any pictures. Gradually it evolved toward the form it has today. Last year the book was enlarged to its present size. K There are a number of areas in which the staff members can dis- play their talents, including business, copy-writing, layout, photog- raphy, and typing. Each department is vital to the successful outcome of the yearbook. This year the student photographer proved to be especially valuable in supplementing the work of the professional photographer. After the plan, or lay-out, of each page is prepared, the pictures and the written explanation, or copy, must be carefully fitted into the plan. Then the copy must be accurately typed. Finally the pages are sent to the publisher. The business staff, in addition to collecting subscriptions and advertisements, has sponsored a dance and a donkey basketball game to finance the cost of the yearbook. The yearbook is designed to be appreciated on two levels, not only is it a review of the past year at Claymont High School, but also it is a means of renewing old memories when, in the years to come, the members of the Class of 1965 read again their year- book. 96 CLAY T BLET Business Manager Bonnie Grace 7.0 Business Adviser ' 1 ' A ' Miss Anderson ,. .fr 1 f ' I H Business Manager Photographer Barbara VVeir Chf'I'Yl Kelly Editor Nlarsha Ewachiw is.

Mr. Brasure, Adviser The Claymont High School newspaper, the Chanticleer, publishes Eve issues at a yearly 31.00 subscription rate. The paper is under the guidance of Mr. James Brasure with Virginia Tryon as editor. It runs no ads, but accu- mulates the necessary funds through donations and sub- scriptions. After sixteen years of existence, the Chanticleer has proved to be the megaphone of the student body in columns such as Roving Reporter and Letters to the Editorf' Another familiar column is Baby Face. This year the school purchased an offset press which is used to print the Chanticleer. Another change has been the reduction in the size of the paper, necessitated by the new press. In addition to articles written by members of the staH', which is composed chiefly of students from tenth, elev- enth, and twelfth grades, the Chanticlen also publishes original poems and compositions by other Claymont stu- dents. ! si S li ...A NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY SEA YED: L.

The American Field Service may play a variety of roles in the foreign exchange program. Not only does this club strive to sponsor a student abroad, but it is also concerned with the exchange student within the school, and with those in other schools. Programs are sometimes slated to entertain the exchange students and help them to adapt to their new surroundings. This club was revived only this year after a three year interval. The club of twenty-two members raised the money to sponsor a foreign exchange student through their annual A.F.S. Drive, Tag Day, and other lucrative projects. In a previous year the club succeeded in sending a student to France by such a program. This year they are participating in a program of the national branch of the A.F.S. to help send a Claymont student abroad. 101 L TIN CLUB SEATED P Schell N Spector. C. Collins, L. Waite, R. Peters.

Since the Latin language and culture have influenced present day culture and language to a great extent, it is Htting that the youth of today should study that ancient civilization. The Latin Club has managed to revive this L'dead civiliza- tion through its annual Saturnalia Christmas Festivities. This organization is affiliated with the Delaware and the National Junior Classi- cal Leagueg however, they have their own constitution. Representatives were sent to the Delaware State Junior Classical League Convention and a member of the Claymont High School Latin Club was made parliamentarian. This convention was called to make preparations for sending several students abroad to Rome Italy, during the Easter vacation and in June. A few Claymont High School stu- dents were fortunate enough to take part in this enriching experience. a 102 FUTURE HCMEMAKERS CF AMERICA SEATED K Hallberg M. Miller. G. Brandenberger, C.

Future Homemakers of America is a national organization which is an intregal part of the homemaking program in many high schools in the United States. Through FHA opportunities are provided for additional experiences in activities related to homemaking. The program of the local chapter is quite varied. The girls continue using skills they have learned in home economics classes. In addition there are talks and dis- cussions on a wide range of topics. Twice a year there are meetings in Dover of the state association. The members of the local chapter take an active part in the national projects. In experiencing self-fulfillment through helping others, they have undertaken a num- ber of activities. These include preparing Thanksgiving dinner for a family and collecting toys and clothing to give to children at Christmas. Several times during this year they made tray favors for patients in a nursing home. Under the advis- ership of Mrs. Ruth Adams and the leadership of Michelle Scolase, president, the group has been very active. 103 GIRL' LETTER CL B ' . X HOTTUJI ROW: S. Dulloss. C. Smith, Nl. Brown.

The building completed in 1959 accommodates those students from kindergarten through sixth grade who live in,the northern part of the district. Inside the school there are a combination cafeteria and gymnasium and an audi- torium for public meetings of many civic organizations and recreational activities. In addition there are music rooms and a library, as well as the oliice of the principal and secretary. 117 IST ROW: S. Tull. D. Dalby, N. Spector, N. Dc'Simonc. Nl. Mon. D. Sny- der. N. Gable. B.

The members of the symphonic band and the Orchestra began rehearsal for their annual concert as soon as the football season closes. An added stimulus was provided by the invitation to play at the New York World's Fair in the spring. For a second year a recording was made of the spring concert of both organizations. The dance band provides music for dances and parties outside of school and for an occasional school assembly. 123 A-one and n-two and a-three and a i 4'---sr.

Mr. Kraler shares a special treat - some potatoes What is that electrifying feeling on opening night backstage? It is a combination of long hours of rehearsal and work, of building a set or a character, of hopes for a good show, of fears of a missed prop. A tremendous amount of work, both behind and in front of the flats, was shouldered by a large number of people and all of it was focused on three nights - December third, fourth, and fifth. To all those who took part, who worked and who worried, who hammered, who hammed, these pages hold a tribute to a memory and experience never to be for- gotten - our Senior Play - The Diary cj Anne Frank. Early rehearsal. FESTIVAL OF l 11-1- FIRST ROW' L. Shively, E. McKeever, V. Tryon, D. Levine. SECOND ROW' C. Hunt, B. Donahey, G, Hurley, D. Howat. The presentation by the Senior Class was an adaptation of the short story, The Minister's Black Veil. The minister of a small Puritan town of the early nineteenth century begins to wear - as a symbol of the hypocrisy of all people - a veil over his face. The faculty adviser was Mr. Millard Howellg the student directors were Harriett Lovelace and Rosemarie Sutton. The Junior Class presented The Wall,', a moving incident in the life of an unnamed country occupied by an unidentified in- vader. The family and friends of a young man sentenced to die for sabotage struggle to save him. Mr. David Myers was the faculty adviser for this play. The Doctor Decidesn was the presentation of the Sophomore Class with Mr. James'Kaut as faculty adviser. A young medical missionary faces the decision of returning to a lucrative prac- tice in the city or remaining in the hill country where he must fight ignorance and prejudices as well as disease. The cast in- cluded Kathy Tiner, Frank Spence, Mike Rosen, Mike Scanlon, Nancy Kelly, and Pat Stephenson. The ninth-grade play, The Monkey's Paw, was an adaptation of the short story describing the effect on a family when they have three wishes granted. The cast included Robert Moley, Larry Langhan, Arthur Glick, Gloria Payne, and Wade Church. The faculty adviser was Mr. Charles johnson. 150 THE SENIOR PLAY CAST CNE-ACT PLAYS M.

In the shop, boys learn mechanical drawing, woodworking, the use of metals, and practical applica- tions of auto mechanics, GYMNASIUM - 1960 The most recent building in the modernization of the Green Street High School is the gymnasium. The High School Gym provides adequate space for boys, and girls' physical education classes due to its double-court design and it contains a stage, a large basketball floor, and fold-away bleachers for assemblies, basketball games, and other activities.

Brown, S. DuRoss. 134 Eight Claymont cheerleaders are the official rep- resentatives of the school teams. They attend all games, home and away. Their main function is to lead the students in urging their team on to victory, but they also promote school spirit and an interest in sports and the teams. They orga- nize pep rallies and publicize games with posters and announcements. The qualifications for cheerleaders are high. All girls must maintain a C average. Elections for new cheerleaders are held each year and encum- bent cheerleaders must be judged again. The faculty adviser for the cheerleaders is Mrs. Carol O'Connell, who assists the girls in plan- ning and accompanies them to all the games. ..,,.1 N junior High ILNEELING: L. Dt-Simone C. Thompson.

Due to the small space and the slope of the land, the multi-level building was designed to fit compactly into the site. Maple Lane School, which was occupied in 1959, contains 20 well-equipped classrooms, a library, a cafeteria, and a gymnasium-auditorium. Mr. and Mrs. Mr. and Mrs. Mr. and Mrs. Vance Hall Lee F.
