As one gazes into a pool and discovers an image of himself reflecting some characteristics shining brightly, so shall one look into this book and rediscover a reflection of Hammond High School, 1964, with its many cherished memories. It is the reflection, not only of one complete year of school, but also of the traditions formed throughout the 78 year history of Hammond High School; traditions which influence administrators, teachers, athletic teams, scholars, clubs and students. At times the reflection we see is not one which we would like to recall, but we do remember it because of its great impact on the complete picture. The assassination of President John Fitzgerald Kennedy had an overwhelming effect on the students of Hammond High School. Although the whole incident was one which we wish had never happened, we must include it in our Reflection if it is to be complete. The story of the year is a panorama of the people and the activities of Hammond High School. As in looking into a pond and being fascinated at the reflection, one can look into this book and amaze at the highlights of our school: the Reflections of Hammond High School — 1963-1964.

3tory c l the fe«r Recalling all the memorable events of the year gone by, students enjoyed a well-rounded school term. The first reflection seen through our mirror is homecoming, and as we look deeper we find visions of other events such as the all school play, the Washington-New York trip, the Christman Vesper Services, and the newly clad band members performing in their concerts. Unforgettable as always were the athletic events which began in the fall and continued through spring when the Association officers for the next year were elected. All these things led to the last reflections in the mirror — the fantasy of “Moonlit Moments,” the 1964 Junior-Senior Prom and finally the joy and sadness of graduation.
