An atmosphere of concentration prevails during a typical auditorium study hall. Announcing the half-time show during football season is a trying experience for Miss Jeani Knapp. Our Profile Encompasses Every Hour 1966 — a year all of us will remember. Seniors will recall it as the year of graduation; as the year when new experiences and a new way of life began. Fresh¬ men will remember 1966 as their first venture into an adult world, a world of many problems, but a world of boundless fun. Sopho¬ mores and Juniors will realize that this year was a year of in¬ sight, a year that brought the realization of responsibility and an understanding of one’s inner self. 6 1966 was a typical year with 365 days, but each day of this singular year acts as a bit of color to add to the multifarious mosaic of our memories. We’ll remem¬ ber homeroom with its unceas¬ ing chatter of daily affairs, we’ll remember the bustling halls and our annoyance at being continual¬ ly jostled, we’ll remember the Up and Down stairs, the lectures of our teachers, and the hands of the clock that seemed to move only an infinitesimal distance. We’ll remember the smiles of that certain someone and the cheery ‘hellos’ of our friends. We’ll recall with pride the efforts of our teams and our booster sections at games. We’ll remember the fun we had at dances and how we all loved assemblies. The final ring of the ninth hour bell and the bus we just missed will stay in our minds forever. We’ll remember the lonely halls after everyone else has gone home. We’ll never forget 1966, our year.

We Remember Homecoming As Homecoming is the highlight of the school year. An almost mag¬ ical atmosphere captivates the minds and spirit of both students and faculty. All phases of Clark school activity join together to produce a successful Homecom¬ ing Weekend. With Disneyland being the 1965 theme, the talented Seniors presented a hilarious skit adapt¬ ed from Disney’s ‘Mary Poppin’s’. The loud-mouthed and spirited Seniors also managed to capture first in the yell contest. Almost every club or group sponsored a lavish float in the Homecoming parade preceding the game. The Pioneers lost the game to the No Homecoming is complete without the excitement and anguish of announcing the queen. Senior attendants Jan Pisowicz and Dorothy Priesol congratulate 1965 Queen Liz Kmetz as she bursts into tears of happiness. A thoroughfare fit for a queen is com¬ posed of the newly organized pom-pon flag corps. 1965 HOMECOMING QUEEN AND COURT - Front Row: E. Vanzo, L. Gumkowski, C. Dostatni, L. Kmetz, J. Pisowicz, D.
