Without the aid of men like President John Kennedy the privilege of attending school and the many other things we take for granted would be for- bidden. So in our own little way, we would like to say thanks to a great man, by dedicating our Annual, The ' 63 INGOT, to PRESIDENT JOHN FITZGERALD KENNEDY. A WORD FROM THE PRESIDENT And so, my fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man. Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God ' s work must truly be our own.

Shown here are Florence Palmowski and Harvey Dicl son as they dissect a frog in Biology class. MR. EARL STUDTMANN Biology The Science department at River Forest plays one of the major roles in rocketry for the Ingot astro- nauts. Yes, they are the ones who do the necessary calculations, experiments, and, in addition to many other things, the maintenance of good, physical bodies. In physics the students are able to learn about matter and energy. Through experiments they can observe the many mysteries, as well as learn to un- derstand and explain them. In chemistry the students stand in amazement at iVU rJ OL u. some of the interesting results of their experiments. Here they are able to create gases and salts, as well as many other compounds._ They delve into the inner secrets of many of the elements and strive hard to become good scientists. In Biology class the students learn about the physical and mental functions of the body. They are able to understand more clearly the mechanics of our metabolism by some of the dissections they make in class. Since the frog ' s metabolism is similar to ours, it is often used for their experiments. 69 L-R: Dave Taylor, Ray Magnuson, George Jansen, Marvin Campbell, and Don AAosely. MRS.

VIOLA SODERSTROM English In a space program for the further- ment of our conquest in space one of the essential tools is unity. Much plan- ning before, after and during the trip is needed. This takes a group of trained men united and working together. Unity is also provided in our Lan- guage Arts program. A group of teachers are united with the main pur- pose of teaching students. Students are taught how to use their knowledge of reading and writing in the best way. Perhaps this knowledge of space may one day bring benefits beyond our imagination. So the knowledge that is provided in these daily classes may help us to reap benefits in the days to come. Lilerature is one of the important phases of English as students in Miss Betty Major ' s class find out. 79 Mr. Sterling ' s 4th hour Civics class is ready for that ever-famous phrase Roman Numeral I, 1-10, 11-20.

Everywhere you looked, you saw girls in bobby-socks and blue- jeans, carrying a football and yelling signals. Under the supervision of Varsity football players, the girls underwent hours of exercise and plenty of running. But despite all the sore- ness and bruises from the work-outs, the girls had fun, and lots of it. Mixed-up signals, for- gotten passes and a good sense of humor, all combined, made it one of the most unforget- table events of the year. The game took place on the newly dedicated football field, Sept. 29. The game came to an end with the Junior girls ahead 12-6. Oh no, Mary!

The field was dedicated at the halftime of the Walkerton game. Rep. Ray Madden, for whom the field was named, was the guest speaker. In their opening game, which was also the first game to be played on the new field, the Ingots dropped a 27-12 decision to Hammond Tech. End Wayne Bernoska scored twice for RF both on identical 28 yard passes from Quarterback Bob Topper. The second game for the year saw River Forest and East Gary battle to a scoreless tie. A traveling trophy was put into circulation at the game, the winning team to re- tain it for a year. The first team fo win three years in a row will keep the trophy. East Gary will have possession of the trophy for the first semester of the school year and River Forest will have it the second semester. 136 The third game of the campaign proved to be one of the highlights of the season. This was due to the fact that it avenged a loss at the hands of New Carlisle last year. Desire and determination proved to be the big factor as the Ingots posted a 1 2-0 victory. Halfback Lara blasted over for the first score giving the Ingots a 6-0 halftime lead. Midway through the fourth quarter Fullback Klawitter bulled over for the final score, assuring the vic- tory. The Walkerton game will not only be remem- bered, by some 2,500 fans for the 25-6 R.F. vic- tory, but also for the fact that it was dedication night for the new football field. The halftime cer- emonies were highlighted by the speech of Rep. Ray Madden. Congressman Madden showed his appreciation by stating, I wouldn ' t have missed this game, even if I would have had to walk all the way from Washington. Touchdowns by Klawitter, Collins, and Lara gave R.F. a 19-0 halftime bulge. Another score by Klawitter and one by Walkerton ended the scoring for the night. The win marked the first time in history that an Ingot football team has won two straight games. BILL Coach ' s Boy DOOLIN Sr. Guard Ingots Play on Madden Field HARRY SHAWVER Sr. Center TOUCHDOWN!

Quarterback and Fullback and Co-Captain Homecoming River Forest celebrated its Homecoming Sep- tember 22, against Gary Andrean. Although the Ingots didn ' t win this time out it proved to be one of the most impressive games of the year. Some 3,000 fans watched as the Ingots came within three points (16-13) of beating a team favored to win by three touchdowns. Andrean scored late in the first period to take a 7-0 lead. Bouncing right back the Ingots scored on a 31-yard run by halfback Mike Lara. A pass from Collins to Bernoska notched the score at 7-all with the teams retiring at the half. After the rest period Andrean scored on a safe- ty and then a touchdown giving them 16-7 lead. The never say die Ingots fought back in their next series of plays for a score. The last 21 yards was covered on a brilliant run by Lara. The at- tempted run for the PAT was short making the final score 16-13. The remainder of the game was a stand-off with neither team posing a scoring threat. Wayne Bernoska is tackled immediately after catching a pass in the homecoming game against Andrean.

On runs of 18 and 45 yards Lara gave RF a 12-0 advantage, but a score by Portage iust before the half ended made the score 12-7. Portage scored again in the third period and gained a 14-12 victory. The Ingots bounced back from defeat and out classed North Liberty in a thrilling contest. Scor- ing first, on a short run by Lara, the Ingots took a 7-0 halftime lead. A score by Klawitter in the third period made it 13-0. In the final stanza North Liberty pushed across three TD ' s and the Ingots two, one an 8 yard run by Klawitter. The other was a back-breaking pass, with only 15 seconds remaining in the game, from Klawitter to Bernoska which covered 27 yards. Entering the final minute of play the score stood at 19-13. With 40 seconds left on the clock North Liberty tied the score, but then the stage was set for the Klawitter-Bernoska pass and the Ingots won 25-19.

River Forest 25 North Liberty 19 ROGER Collins Sr. Halfback 140 MIKE O ' CONNOR Sr. Guard The Parents Night game against Chesterton proved to be quite embarrassing as the Ingot de- fensive unit was literally torn apart. This together with the fact that the offensive unit was unable to move, the Ingots lost 46-7. The only bright spot was a 75 yard pass from reserve Quarter- back Pritchett to Bernoska for the TD. With the defensive and offensive units work- ing up to par again, the Ingots posted a 22-6 win over Hammond Gavit. Fullback Klawitter scored the initial TD on a short run. The second marker, a 46 yard pass play, came about when Klawitter ' s pass found end Bernoska open on the one yard line. The defensive unit redeemed itself when guard Terry Radovich blocked a punt in the end zone for a safety. Halfback Collins made the final tally for a 22-0 lead. Gavit pushed across its tone score late in the fourth period. In the final game of the year and the last for the Ingot Seniors, Culver MA handed the Ingots a 19-6 setback. Trailing 19-0, the Ingots scored early in the fourth period on a 10 yard aerial from Lile to Bernoska. Culver thwarted several other Ingot drives later in the quarter, once stop- ping the Ingots on the six inch line. Gordon Klawitter makes a bone-crushing tackle which helped the Ingots in obtaining a 12-0 victory over New Carlisle. Harry Shawver (53) aids Mike Lara (37) in advancing the football, and Hubert Stanley (67) rushes up to see what he can do. 141 Gordon Klawitter (11) churns up the lurf for a first down in the East Gary game.

Jerry Gorby (83), John Romo (43), Lonny Minarich (23), Ken Novak (85), and Jack Martin (81), are doing everything possible to prevent a completion and a TD for Walkerton. 142 A block is thrown and with Dick Lile (12) leading the way Gordon Kla- witter {carrying the ball) is sure to gain ground.

Wrestling got off to a good start despite the newness of the sport. The prospects for next year look good as there were only four seniors and no juniors on the squad. On the reserve level the Ingots compiled a 7-3 record and on the varsity level a 1-2 record. Although lacking in experience the Ingots toppled Horace Mann 55-5 in their first meet. In their first varsity meet RF squeezed past East Gary 24-21 and lost to Chesterton 34-16 in their second encounter. History was made when River Forest met an oppone nt (East Gary) for the first time in the RF gym. A huge crowd watched as East Gary won 28-1 6. History was made again when twelve RF wrestlers took part in the Gary Sectional for the first time. The seventh place Ingots showed good form in wrest- ling the more inexperienced teams from Roosevelt, Wirt, Emerson, Chesterton, Portage, and East Gary. 145 ' 62 Basketball ' 63 VARSITY TEAM Bottom row: AAgr, Dan Poleswski, Dick Lile, Wayne West, Harry Shawver, AAike Lara, and Bob Topper. Top row: Mgr. Dave Persful, Lee Courtney, Peter Parker, Frank Monroe, Warren Rafcliff, George Semerau, Wayne Bernoska, and coach John Newton. . The River Forest varsity basketball team, under the leadership of coach John Newton, had the first .500 season in the school ' s five year history. The 12-8 record, actually equals a .600 season, is the best ever posted. The twelve wins exceed the total number of victories in the previous four years. The 81 points scored against Fair Oaks is the larg- est total ever produced by an Ingot team in the RF gym. In racking up 1209 points the Ingots sur- passed, for the first time, the 1,000 point mark. Losing their opener to Portage, the Ingots got on the victory trail by knocking off East Gary 50-48. The Ingots easily won four of the next five games and entered the Andrean Tourney with a 5-2 rec- ord. East Gary upset the Ingots in the championship game of the tourney 53-48. The first game saw Andrean fall to the more powerful Ingots, 71-60. Winning six of their last eleven games, the In- gots beat such teams as: St. Mary ' s, Fair Oaks, Culver MA, Hamm. Gavit, Dyer, and Wheeler. 1962-63 RECORD 41 Portage 61 50 East Gary 48 54 Hobart 57 62 Boone Grove 51 63 Lowell 48 64 DeMotte 48 69 Morgan Twp. 48 ANDREAN HOLIDAY TOURNEY 71 Andrean 60 48 East Gary 53 49 Hebron 66 68 St. Mary ' s 49 65 Chesterton 68 73 Culver M.A. , 57 81 Fair Oaks 25 77 Hammond Gavit 53 50 Dyer 45 64 Westville 74 60 Rolling Prairie 63 45 Andrean 49 55 Wheeler 45 Gary Sectional ??

Although the JV ' s didn ' t match the 14-6 record of last year ' s team the 13-7 record is still something to be proud of. In the season opener the JV team dropped ti 47-35 decision to Portage. The next three games saw East Gary, Hobart, and Boone Grove fall at the hands of the Jr. Ingots. When tournament time came around the Jr. Varsity held a very excellent 6-1 mark. Disaster struck when Andrean managed to beat RF by two points 32-30. The second game saw the JV ' s defeat East Gary 42-41. The JV team won seven of the remaining eleven games. The victories were over Hebron, St. Mary ' s, Chesterton, Fair Oaks, Dyer, Andrean, and Wheeler.

George Semerau (51 ) seems to be throwing a block on a Boone Grove player as Lee Courtney (41) at- tempts to catch a touchdown pass, while actually it is just an ordinary scramble for a rebound. Under the guidance of coach Chuck Bencie the freshman basketball team compiled a fine 10-7 rec- ord. The Ingot freshmen played perfect ball the first four games of the season and entered the Andrean Tourney with a 4-1 record. In the first game of the tourney Hammond Gavit stopped the Ingots cold 46-34. After losing the first game the Ingots were looking for revenge, and they took it out on East Gary in a 39-29 win. Three games had passed before the freshmen won again, just squeezing past Andrean 34-31. The vic- tory was the first in a string of five, which included wins over Hobart, Horace Mann, East Gary, and Portage. The RF yearlings split the remaining two games of the season. The first was a 34-32 loss to Valpo and the second a 44-42 victory over Chesterton. 153 Yea Rah Ingots. Pictured to the left are the Varsity Cheer- leaders.

Well, old books, we ' ve been pals for quite some time, haven ' t we? You ' ve caused me a lot of work but I won ' t lay it up against you seeing that I man- aged to get through my tests without flunking and am really going to graduate from that tiresome work. I give you your share of the credit, pal, but most of it belongs to me for the time I spent on you. ARITHMETIC, you old fright, I never have liked you. It hasn ' t been your fault that I didn ' t get brain fever several times over, trying to learn to add, multiply, subtract, divide, and— ugh!!! I could throw you across the room when I think of all the bother you gave me. But don ' t feel bad, old dear. It isn ' t your fault that your insides are so dry and boring. I suppose you were born that way and can ' t help it. HISTORY, you haven ' t been too bad, You fixed it up so I got a real good mark on the exam. I ' m grateful for all you taught me, because one must know about what has taken place in the country mustn ' t one? I ' d feel like a simp if I didn ' t know that Columbus discovered us, in 1942 — er— 1942? No, of course not, I meant in— well, you know when it was old dear— you ' ve got it right there in you. I shall remember you as long as I live— all about George Washington in the battle of Bull Run and everything. You ' ve made me feel awfully educated. ENGLISH, you ' re dear, I hope I never said any- thing to hurt your feelings cause I do like you. You taught me to speak most as well as a college graduate and I ' ll tell you a little secret but don ' t you tell. The boys of the class would laugh if they knew and the girls would turn up their noses, but— well, I ' ve liked you so well— all the things you make me write, you know, that 1 shall be a noted writer after I finish school. I shall write love stories. Thank you so much old pal, for teaching me to write lovely language. 160 L 7 P ' ,,(- , f A I Tribute to Our y n ' ■ r J if L ,L „ J rA%,- ' ,. ¥yW,., t We, the SENIORS-of 1963, are happy to salute the River Forest High School Spirit of Guidance, Leadership, Courage and Co-op- eration. These were the virtues that have made our fours years of school something special to remember. We have learned to love associates which are here, and we shall always look upon the hours spent in this school as having been those of special privilege. There have been times of course, where our schoolmates have seemed uninteresting and our books dull. But now we know that the fault was in us, and we shall go forth remembering the bright spots of our school career, the joy we have experienced in mastering difficult tasks, the jokes, and sparkles of fun. Oh, many, many things we can recall and treasure among the memories of our childhood and youth. The class which will take our place as SENIORS is a worthy class, and to its charge we entrust the fair honor of this school. We shall rejoice in their progress and happiness and success. May they hold the banner high. 161 DEKALB DRUGS Prescriptions Filled Daily Your Neighborhood hiealth Center ' 2800 DeKalb, East Gary 962-1137 JANSEN ' S MICHIGAN FRUIT MARKET U.
