Scenes Around School by Sherry Gurevitz Located at 1921 Davis Avenue, in Whiting, George Rogers Clark High School has an enrollment of 800 students, 409 girls and 391 boys. In the grade school and junior high there are 618 pupils. On the three floors of Clark school are a variety of courses taught by 19 women and 21 men instructors. An “early room” has been established this year for students who arrive at school before the doors open at 8:10. In this newly organized room students can study or talk quietly. School begins at 8:30 with a ten minute homeroom period in which announce¬ ments for the day are read. Homeroom period is fol¬ lowed by seven 55 minute periods. In order to accommodate the large number of students who must eat their lunch at school, the practice of staggering the lunch hours is employed. The first lunch hour is at 11:30 and the other at 12:30. On Wednesday of each week the first, second, and third periods are shortened fifteen minutes to pro¬ vide extra time for an activity or club period held between first and second periods. Located two blocks south of school is the athletic field which is used for football and baseball games and track meets. Because the school gymnasium is not large enough to accommodate the huge crowd of Clark boosters, basketball games are played at the Whiting Memorial Gymnasium. Preparing for an afternoon test, Denise Singer and Gretchen Duerr do some diligent last-minute cramming. Diane Dufallo, Cathy Sabol, and Judy Zweig look over their newly acquired POWDER HORNS and exchange autographs. 7
