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.

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

Worthy Students Attend Summer Institutes Unable to stop the learning pro¬ cess during summer vacation, Clarkites enriched their know¬ ledge and their future at summer institutes and workshops. Future leaders were given ex¬ perience at Boy s’ and Girls’ States. Representatives took part in mock state governments and learned some of the intricacies of running a government smoothly. Varsity cheerleaders swapped techniques at cheering camp in Syracuse, Indiana, in classes in tumbling, cheering, and pep as¬ semblies. These classes enabled them to lead effective Homecom¬ ing and Sectional pep sessions and to lead cheers at all games while boosting the spirits of the crowds and the teams. Extensive journalistic study was the foremost goal of 1966 yearbook editors Carol Leskovich and Sharon Granger who spent two informative weeks at I.U. Last summer Pat Boguslaw gained newspaper knowledge at an Indiana University News Conference to aid her as assistant editor of the P.N.
