INTRODUCTION 4 ACADEMICS 22 CLARKITES. 36 ACTIVITIES. 74 SPORTS.108 ADVERTISING 132 Let ' s take a tour of that Year Before we start you on our tour of 1964, let us review some of the major highlights of that year. Homecoming was a weekend that no Clarkite will ever forget. It was a welcoming back of the alumni and also a festive moment in the eyes and hearts of the Pioneers. Sectionals began the new year with both victory and defeat, but the stu¬ dents held their heads high with spirit and loyalty to GRC. Graduation brought an end to the year, but not to the memories. Yes, it was a year filled with hard study, busy activities, success, defeat, and to some it meant only the closing of one door to await the beckoning of another. So to you we say, join us in our travels— LET’S TAKE A TOUR OF THAT YEAR 1964!

Institutors Gain Knowledge and Experience Clark’s representatives to the 1963 Girls’ State were Mary Boswell and Mary Ann Kokot. During the summer preceding the 1963-1964 school year, several Clark students attended special institutes in order to acquire the basic knowledge needed to perform their duties during the year. One of the greatest honors a high school student can receive is to be chosen to attend Boys’ State or Girls’ State. These institutes are held during two different weeks at Indiana University. During these institutes the delegates, Greg Terranova, Den Burk, Tom Snider, Mary Boswell, and Mary Ann Kokot, formed a mock state government. Michelle Summers, Clark’s delegate to the librar¬ ians’ workshop, spent one week at Indiana Univer¬ sity learning proper librarian skills. The editors of the Pioneer News and the Powder Horn attended workshops at Indiana University to develop journalistic talents. Kathy Dubich, Pioneer News editor, spent two weeks at a workshop learning the fundamentals of high school newspaper writing and actual production. Henrietta Kasprzak, editor of the Powder Horn, and Mary Toops, assist¬ ant editor, attended a similar two week session. Varsity cheerleaders, K. Pajak, A. Poison, C. Scha- low, R. Vater, M. A. Kokot, and J. Macocha spent five days at the cheering camp in Syracuse, Indiana. The girls took classes in cheering techniques, tumbling, and pep assemblies.
