The annual prom, a combined effort of sponsors and students, was a complete success this year, as always. It was the product of months of diligent work of the industrious Junior Class. Yet the Prom, with all its glitter and grandeur, concluded the school year with exciting remem¬ brances for all who attended. Memory books of preceding years bordered the dance floor. This event was truly a ‘Prelude to an Ending’ as the juniors bade fare¬ well to graduating seniors and hopefully awaited the coming year. The Annual Prom, Prelude To An Ending’ Junior and Senior class officers prepare to lead the grand march at the Junior Class Prom, ‘Prelude To An Ending’. 24

Of Our Four Unforgettable Years At Clark Seniors prepare for graduation as they are carefully fitted for caps and gown. A Clark graduate proudly accepts his well-earned reward, a high school di¬ ploma, the key to a better future. Graduation meant many things to seniors, but for all it meant the conclusion of four years of hard work and rollicking fun. At the Senior Banquet, seniors recapitulated four years of mem¬ ories, laughing at antics as “freshies” and musing over ex¬ ploits as seniors. As their last act as seniors, they marched up the aisle and took places on stage for commence¬ ment. Each senior proudly receiv¬ ed his diploma, slowly flipped his tassel, and departed as an alum¬ nus. With diplomas in hand, they depart to conquer the world and to mold their futures. 23

Rollicking pep band, composed of dedi¬ cated students, aids in stimulating school spirit for basketball games. Pom Pon girls H. Kubeck and C. Ber- land supply color and excitement for cheering Clarkites at games. Clark’s well-known marching band pro¬ vides rousing entertainment during half¬ time at all football games. Marching Groups Add Zest To Games The half-time shows at all Clark football and basketball games were brightened by the cheery music and the clever rou¬ tines of the marching band, pom¬ pon corps, and majorettes. These groups under the direction of Mr. Caryle Snider, Miss Jeani Knapp, and Miss Marion Johnston, work¬ ed long hours to polish their per¬ formances to the pinnacle of per¬ fection. These shows of near¬ professional caliber provided entertainment for appreciative Clarkites. The combined efforts of stu¬ dents, teachers, and athletes made the attendance at each game a memorable and rewarding event. Clark twirlers D. Dickey and D. Priesol head the band in the Homecoming parade.
