Hammond High School - Dunes Yearbook (Hammond, IN)

Text from Pages 1 - 184 of the 1968 volume:

Myraid horizons unfold in students’ orb Student’s world . . . surveyed a zillion horizons. Hammond High School and its citizenry whirled through a year of life that consist- ed of academics, activities, organi- zations, student life, athletics, the community and individuals. What is the world if not a com- bination of each moment and in- fluence in a person ' s existence? Every experience counted: drawing posters for a club bake sale . . . greeting a pal enroute to who- knows-where . . . decorating a goal- post for homecoming . . . comput- ing the square root of 9482 . . . and snipping construction paper to cre- ate an abstract collage. Even minis- cule happenings meant something. Pupils affected environment; sur- roundings swayed them in turn. On the cover of this volume, the seven interlocking circles stand for the inter-related aspects of HHS life. Each circle comprises one stage of what a Wildcat was, did and believed this year ... in summa- tion, each circle symbolizes a facet of the student and his world. Existence kaleidoscoped . . . into tardy bells . . . couples strolling to classes . . . another train . . . Re- gion air pollution . . . fragrance of prom nosegays . . . crowd s yells at sectionals . . . hamburger and coke, please . . . smell of wet paint from art room . . . clatter of cafeteria cutlery . . . thankful sighs of TCIF . . . and flames that threatened to undermine the world of students and their DOHHS In this unique and exciting place, HHS ' ers survived a galaxy of ad- ventures as their many-faceted globe orbited through time.

Wildcat travelers shared journey with 322 upper- classmen and 1 4 teacher-chaperons from the other Hammond high schools — Clark, Cavit, Tech and Morton. Lack of heat, hootenannies, journeys from car to car and late-night talks in washrooms characterized the 21- hour rides on Erie-Lackawanna trains. Arrival in Washington, D.C., temporarily dampened spirits as Hammondites raced with baggage to buses and Hotel Harrington in drenching downpour. As skies cleared, tourists boarded buses for evening tour of Wax Museum and Washington Monument.

City improvements included wider Calumet Ave., new library and new wing on St. Margaret ' s Hospital. Black power and ghetto riots be- came greater problems. Kerner Com- mission blamed whites. Cary and Cleveland elected Negro mayors Richard Hatcher and Carl Stokes. Further unrest came in strikes of public servants like Florida teachers and New York garbagemen. Inflation spread.

Academics 27 750 area pupils attend 48th summer school Hammond High’s 48th summer school session lasted from June 10 to Aug. 6, 1967. Two four-week grading periods divided the session. Students took finals Aug. 6. Besides students from Hammond High, pupils from Morton, Bishop Noll and Tech comprised the 750 student enrollment. Driver educa- tion classes, offered only in sum- mer school, had the largest course enrollment with 300 drivers. Students enrolled in summer school to take courses offered only in sum- mer and to get ahead in required work so that they could take elec- tives during the school year. Administration offered non-credit enrichment programs in some for- eign languages so that pupils could improve their language skills. Supplementing Hammond High teachers, five teachers from other high schools and junior highs taught English and driver education.

Experimentation with tracking system assigned Wildcats to English classes geared to their talents and needs. The department distributed students among three levels: aver- age, accelerated and special. Freshmen delved into mythology and grammar. Second-year studies focused on orientation to public speaking, a taste of literature and basics of theme-writing. Comp 5’ers sweated over first re- search papers. Lit enthusiasts per- used US writings and movements from colonial times to the present. Corollary to American literature covered movements in English auth- orship starting with “Beowulf.’’ Sen- iors in Mrs. Margaret Mertens’ lit class viewed Shakespeare ' s “A Com- edy of Errors at a Chicago theater. Practice in drawing up term pap- ers and themes formed basis of Comp 7 and 8 for 68’ers. Electives listed speech for silver- tonguers; journalism, yearbook and newspaper for news-nosers. Opening curtain of model Shakespearean theater, Ron Harmening examines playhouse during English lit unit on Elizabethan drama.. Getting ready to demonstrate the principle of spring force in physics, Mr. Lawrence Lundgren tightens a metal spiral with the assistance of PSSC student Diane Mrache, junior. Holding a skull session with sophomore Donna Wyrozumski, Mr. Robert King operates the mandible of a plastic skeleton in health and safety. Sciences catalyze discovery in laboratory Gravitational force, nuclear reac- tions, hygiene, physiology and het- erotroph hypothesis filled class hours of HHS scientists. Policeman and other speakers lectured to Mr. Robert King’s health and safety students. Biology I and II pupils examined classification of organisms and chemically approached study of DNA’s role in the cell. Biology III advanced to anatomy investigation and concentrated on a nine-week dissection of a fetal pig. PSSC (Physical Science Study Committee) classes centered around reading, mathematics and labora- tory. Discovery and interpretation in this pre-chem course integrated toward insight to the atom. Besides solving exercises on the molecular level, Chem-Study schol- ars developed the connection be- tween experiment and theory. Two topsy-turvy turtles amuse biologists Don Creasbaum, Mr. Hugh Dawson and Myrna Lynn. To study warming behavior of paradichloro- benzene, Sue Borbely heats a beakerful. Mini-mouse, properly tail-held by Duane Dippon, hazards climb up a striped sleeve. Led by Cindy Clark and Bill Weeks, Spaniards debate a current Spanish cultural problem. Alert Spanish students Sharon Eichmann, Sam Facen and Sharon Campbell detect grammar flaw in a sentence written on the blackboard. Linguists weather exams, forfeit laboratory Dispersal of language laboratory equipment, College Board listening comprehension test and IU honors program for study abroad contrib- uted to year’s activities in the foreign language department. Department offered four years of French, Latin, Spanish and ad- vanced placement German. Russian extended to third-year level. December fire resulted in dis- junction of language laboratory. Al- though Tech had no lab, HHS teachers could use facilities res- cued from damaged building. Supplementing College Entrance Examination Board achievement tests, listening exams challenged 32 Wildcat linguists Feb. 6. These comprehension trials indicated ap- titude for a student’s college pur- suit of foreign languages. After surviving preliminary screen- ing, six junior girls in German, Spanish and French proceeded to the application phase in Indiana University honors program in for- eign languages. Selected scholars live abroad during the summer in family situations, study the lan- uage in depth and pledge not to converse in English while they re- side in their host countries. 35 Using compass, UICSM student Jerry Beaman plots midpoint while Becky Stover gathers thoughts before starting to graph segment. At board, sophomore geometry student Ruby Clarke questions her teacher ' s request to construct isosceles triangle, as Odestress McCoy pauses before he proves Euclidian theorem. Helping sophomore UICSM student Karen Kicho, Penny Phillips calculates square root on slide rule before using Pythagorean theorem to find measure of the side of a right triangle. 36 Mathematics presents problems to students Mathematicians treated princi- ples, problems and proofs in alge- bra, geometry, trigonometry and college prep courses. Three sections (basic, general and UICSM) of- fered HHS’ers choice of study. By aptitude and needs, freshmen elected algebra, general math or UICSM (University of Illinois Com- mittee on School Mathematics). Algebraic classes focused on num- ber line, while the general course centered around work that would serve students in later life. UICSM adventurers explored material through a discovery method. Geometry challenged sophomores with column and paragraph proofs and practical relation to world. Juniors in third-year algebra mas- tered skills they had acquired frosh year and delved into the realm of trigonometry. Correlary in UICSM also covered functions. College-preparatory analysis wiz- ards examined and combined alge- bra, geometry and trigonometry. Advanced UICSM underwent a full year without textbooks. Students literally wrote their own books. Plotting positive, negative directions on road, UICSM student Sara Seddelmeyer prepares to measure mileage from Anabru to Zabranchburg. 37 Studying stock reports, Richard Jancosek and Margaret Fletcher check Dow Jones averages. Scholars examine foreign culture, policies Studying different cultures, is- sues and foreign policies; learning about the free enterprise system and seeing movies acquainted pupils with aspects of the social studies. Freshmen could elect geography, which included the study of Eu- rope, Asia and Africa. Sophomores in world history learned about the concepts and cultures of Asia.

ROW TWO: Gayle Clarke, treasurer; Connie Fultz, vice president; Karen Mauder, secretary. Facing a new world, 340 freshmen survived the daily challenges of crowded halls, long lunch lines, stuffed lockers and stubborn locks. In this new life, freshmen experi- enced the eagerness of upperclass- men who sold them locker insur- ance, elevator passes and bonfire and auditorium session tickets. Their first class challenge consist- ed of building a float for homecom- ing. The float, entitled “Rise to Victory,” won fourth place. Later in the fall, freshmen elect- ed class officers and house repre- sentatives. They also collected class dues for financing the freshman party in the spring. Some freshmen sought to join clubs, dance at the soc-hops, act in the plays and attend the games. Others found playing on sports teams, working in the cafeteria and singing with the vocal department more to their enjoyment.

Running on wheels of US commerce, HHS ' ers learned the value of dollars and sense. Era of inflation brought rising costs to Calumet region shoppers. Students bought school supplies . . . the newest rages in clothing . . hamburgers, pizzas and cokes . . . gifts for friends and relations . . . records and movie tickets. During off-school hours, Wild- cats marketed in downtown Ham- mond, River Oaks, Woodmar Shop- ping Center and even Chicago stores.

Post-lunch bleacher solitude symbolizes importance of individualism in student’s world. US flag flies at half mast in front of HHS. It first mourned assassination April 4 of Dr. Martin Luther King, then death April 9 of school board member Mr. Charles Scott 174 Intangibles, realities intensify student’s world Though intangibles — individual- ism, irony, achievement, emotion, unity, loyalty — injected humanity into student ' s world, intangibles in turn served to intensify them. He was startled by President Johnson’s March 31 speech offering partial bombing halt as Viet Nam peace move and withdrawing from Presidential race. North’s positive response to the peace offer cheered a war-weary world. Whites and Negroes sorrowed at the sniper death of civil rights lead- er Dr. Martin Luther King in Mem- phis April 4. It touched off an orgy of arson, theft and death requiring federal troops in more than 80 cities, including Chicago. Such events swirled through the student’s world, influencing it. Still chiming after the fire, grandfather ' s clock continues its 45-year vigil on main floor as school environment awaits inhabitants injecting liveliness into their world, students hustle in multi-directions past the walls that unite them and widen their future ' s scope. 175 Yearbookers question, experience, lament Staff members ' world revolved around questions, ex- periences and objects connected with producing the ' 68 Dunes. We asked questions: Who has a triangle? . . . What ' s this picture doing in the publications folder? ... Do you want to see me cross my eyes while I ' m wearing my contacts? . . . How ' s that spelled? ... Is this our StYlE? . . . What does that mean? . . . Did you get the double meaning? . . . How come it can’t? We experienced: slicing Marilyn’s green-frosted cake with a pica ruler . . . checking the orderly 3-M box . . . misspelling studying” . . . playing Mary Poppins with Miss Richter ' s umbrella . . . moving out of HHS, moving into the basement, moving into Tech, moving back into HHS . . . mutilating admits . . . surviving 7 p.m. hunger pains . . . drying out watersoaked underclass pictures . . . rescuing the photography files. We lamented: the one and only grease pencil . . . rib- bits . . . JW and the ID ' s . . . Tech’s Freudian typewriters . . . Miss Richter ' s Holly Day paper dress . . . my rotty ears that didn ' t fall off! . . . unexecuted Pepsi party . . . Munster’s junior class headline . . . pilfered football pictures . . . Marcy ' s pickle-sickle cutline . . . Mr. Staley ' s imPRESSive nose . . . Burrr-midji . . . center foldout highlighting a Quill and Scroll pin . . . Vener- able Bede . . . one column, one line cutlines . . . Pat and her twin who flunked . . . late pictures . . . jokes . . . low hangers . . . Boom-Boom . . . brownie bribery . . . tuff, as in chew. Dunes didn’t just happen; it re- quired every staffer’s loyalty, tal- ent and sense of humor to survive. From behind desk, Miss Judy Richter advises Kathy Karwasinski and Peggy Spain on ad layout.
