With this thought in mind, the editors chose Shadow Pictures as the theme for the 1955 Sequelle. It is their hope that each silhouette will usher in a host of memories — memories that through the pictures and print of this book will be preserved and untouched by time.

Moore, Dean of Instruction of Clarion State Teachers College, the staff of the 1955 Sequelle proudly dedicate their book. The dedication is made in appreciation of the help and guidance he has given countless students in the years he has served the school. His important tasks of arranging schedules, interviewing prospective students, and offering advice whenever approached have all been carried out with efficiency and thought- fulness. His amiable disposition and pleasant personality have endeared him to Clarion students. For these reasons Dean Moore is the choice of the edi- tors and staff for teacher, counsellor, and friend. I tfdtniHtitratbH The PreJ dehtJ tfleAAaye My congratulations to the graduates of 1955 on the comple- tion of four years of colleqe work and the securing of the Bach- elor of Science Degree. I suggest as an interesting diversion that each of you now write down the changes you expect in the country and in the world before your 25th college reunion, May 20, 1980, and that each of you read your paper to your group when you gather in the lounge of Becht Hall on that afternoon twenty-five years hence. Your experience then should enable you to tell the faculty how well or how poorly the curriculum has prepared you for the life you will have lived up to that time. You should suggest and maybe insist on improvements. You should be by that time authorities on what a college curriculum should be to prepare people for the experiences they will meet. You might even be able to give some good suggestions on what the curriculum should be for the period 1980 to 2005 A. D., the date at which you will come back for your 50th anniversary. Dr. Paul G.

The busy year began with the many prep- arations necessary for Homecoming Day, an- nually sponsored by the seniors. Committees headed by and composed mainly of seniors, took charge of planning the parade, the election of a Homecoming Queen, the construction of the queen ' s float, the coronation ceremony, and the Homecoming Dance. With Homecoming successfully over, the class then turned to thoughts of graduation, and chose and ordered announcements. January graduation took over twenty-five per cent of the class, leaving the small class even smaller. Another activity that called for senior class sponsorship was Twirp Week , for which sen- iors planned a schedule, set up rules, and took care of publicity. All the excitement of the last year culmin- ated finally in the long-awaited day when each senior received his diploma and the official handshake expressing the good wishes of the college. The Class of ' 55 was guided throughout its four-year life by Mr. Richard Skinner, head of the College Placement Bureau. Class members appreciate and thank him for his advice and many hours of work in class projects, and for his invaluable assistance with placement problems.

Following their late advent on campus, due to a week of observation in home town schools, the juniors soon entered into all phases of college life. Ably representing their class in the Homecoming Court were Alice Yorns and Mary Jane Haight. Another junior with a claim to royalty is Georgie Racioppi, White Rose Queen of Sigma Tau Gamma. The biggest class project of the year was the sponsoring of the Snowflake Frolic , the annual Christmas formal. Under the capable direction of President Joe Clovesko, Harvey Gym was gaily adorned with a myriad of snowflakes and snowmen of all size and description. A giant Christmas tree provided a striking centerpiece. Second semester brought student teaching for many of the junior Elementary Majors. Already well known as campus lead- ers, the members of the class of ' 56 are looking forward to a suc- cessful senior year. 34 Nancy Ambe Martha Anderson Donald Andrekovich John Annett Shirley Be Dorothy Bloomster Joyce Boyl.

Realizing their need for an able leader, the sopho- more class chose Bob Moore as their class president. Aiding him in his duties, in an advisory capacity, was Mrs. Ruth Dougherty. The class was well represented at Homecoming by two viva- cious sophomores, Sally Sutton and Carol Spagiare. Helen Chris- tian and Avalon Delp also added to the beauty of Homecoming by reigning as queens of Delta Kappa and Sigma Tau Gamma, respectively. The outstanding event for the sophomore class was the gala pre-Easter dance. It will long remain in the memories of those who attended. The sophomores had a fine representation in the many clubs on campus, both as members and as officers. As they conclude their second year at the college on the hill they are thankful for the many memories and unforgettable experiences which they will carry with them into future years. i rfl a « ii ' -rw Har ry Andor F Audre y Arbuthnot Donna Bauer Peggy Beers Doris Benning Betty Blain Ruth Bock William Breni sh Charle s Brochetti Rita Brown Vint :ent Brunelli Barba ra Budzinski Tom Cannon Lawrei ice Chiodo Helen Christiai Johr i Coffmai Willia m Dougherty Robert Davis Barbai a Deininger Avalon Delp Van ce Duncai Judith Dunn Barbara Eake Dean Elder Gerald Etzel Chai -les Evan: Lawrence Farmerie Carole Fibick Donna Flockerzi Paul Forringer Nan cy Gates Joann Gatesman Harry Gault Marion Goodwill Florence Grahc 0 8 ft Q O C V .ft JL: .

Their first class meeting was held early in the fall under the guidance of Dean Moore. It was decided to postpone the elec- tion of officers until class members could become better ac- quainted with one another. Hazel Moore and Lee Mills were chosen freshman attendants to the Homecoming Queen, and Walt Greenart was elected Social Committee representative. At the next meeting, class officers were elected to lead in preparing for the spring dance, sponsored annually by the fresh- man class. With the first year completed successfully, freshmen are looking forward to their sophomore year. WSgfy ft j « j k £ j ' • - ' •v if, , i ' 1.

The Senate ' s first order of business was the election of offi- cers. Since the organization is on campus for the benefit of the students, the entire student body participated in the voting. After the election, the Senate went on to its all-important task of dis- cussing and approving the school budget. Other business this year included: the appointment of Mrs. Ralph Cyphert as manager of the Student Union; the addition of a bulletin board in Seminary Hall for the Newman Club; the es- tablishment of a three-year contract with the engraving com- pany for the Sequelle, which carries with it a discount of approxi- mately $200; the decision to print the yearbook without adver- tisements; and the appointment of the Assembly Program Com- mittee and Student Union Committee. Delegates from the Senate were sent to the annual Student Senate Conference held this year at Indiana State Teachers Col- lege. An appropriation of $100 was made to cover this expense. Members of the Student Senate express an appreciation of the able aid which Dr. Paul G. Chandler has given throughout the year. fecial Ccmm ttee Left to right — Norma Kelso, Aud- rey Arbuthnot, Jim Milliron, Anne Abbey, Georgie Racioppi, The Social Committee and House Council are both important phases of student self- government on c ampus. It is the duty of the Social Committee to plan the social events of the school year and set up a schedule for these. The Social Calendar pub- lished by this group is the result of much time and thought spent on the various details of necessary planning. Every social event taking place on campus must go through this organi- zation. Miss Grace Stoke, Dean of Women is the able advisor of the Social Committee. The House Council is responsible for the effi- cient management of Becht Hall. Rules newly passed this year were eleven o ' clocks on nights when basketball games and other school func- tions are scheduled and one o ' clocks for the girls after every school dance. House Council officers are: President, Liz Nuttall; Secretary, Alice Yorns; and Fire Chief, Anne Abbey.

And we hope that in future years, this Sequelle will serve its purpose well — to awaken the many wonderful memories of the year 1954- 1955. The editors would like to thank the staff for their hard work and cooperation and to thank especially Mr. Kuhner, our adviser, for his great assistance and advice. And because this Sequelle is a special remembrance for all graduating seniors, we wish each and every one of them a happy and complete future. air, Elida Mullen. Row 3— Frances Wals ion Beacom, Nancy Gates, Julie Greenalch PreAA Club OFFICERS President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Editor Sponsor Carol Jenkins Louise Johnson Carole Fibick Lee Hyatt Sam Rogal Miss Bertha Nair Members of the Press Club comprise the staff of the school paper, the Clarion Call. Any student desiring membership in the club may join by successfully passing a test in journalism which the club sponsors, which involves all the basic fundamentals of journalistic writing. Editors of the Call are chosen by the club members. Sam Rogal headed the staff this year. His assistant editor was Elida Mullen, while Frances Ernest Walsh, Carol Jenkins, Don Reno, and Billie Groe served as department heads. The Call is published twice each month. Publishing the school paper is not the only function the Press Club serves. Work done in this organization helps to give its members a background for supervising high school publications. Ideas are put to work and theory gives way to actual practice. This experience in all phases of journalistic work is beneficial to all members. Scribbles, another enterprise of the Press Club, is published once each year. It contains poetry, short stories, and essays. Material for the booklet comes from any student on campus who is interested in creative writing, as well as from members of the club. In the spring the Press Club joined the Art Club in an annual social evening. This year an informal party was held at the Hostess House in March. Aft Club OFFICERS First Semester President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Sponsor Don Andrekovich Marshaline Querio Carole Fibick Ray Dardes Miss Hazel Sandford President Vice President Secretary Treasurer Second Semester Marshaline Querio Beverly Towns Pat Hoffman Wayne Shaw The semesters of ' 54 and ' 55 brought many enjoyable experiences to Art Club members and their sponsor, Miss Sandford. Projects of the year included a float for the Homecoming Parade using the theme Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary , work with metal-tapped book-ends and tooled-leather projects, and a display of art work in the J. C. Penney Store win- dow during Pennsylvania Week. The display was of students ' work and earned a certificate of merit for Miss Sandford in appreciation. The club has also had its share of parties this year. Hallowe ' en called for a special celebration complete with orange and black cats, a huge cake, and pop. At the Christmas party, Miss Sandford played Santa and surprised the group with refreshments. The most important social event of the year was the Art-Press Club informal party, held March 15, at the Hostess House. St. Patrick ' s Day decorations adorned the tables, and an interesting talk was given by Lackey Katronis, Greek High School exchange student. The Art Club offers rewarding experiences for all those students interested in artistic ventures. Row 1— Nancy Trimbur, Alverda Crissman, Nancy Gates, Rose London, Theda Lewis.

During the year demonstrations are made, slides shown, and talks are given on the taking, development, en- largement, and printing of pictures. Members of the club, with the help of adviser, Dr. Peirce, present these. The club ' s annual photography contest was held this spring, and the best picture in each of four groups was chosen by a com- mittee of judges. Members were required to take, develop and print their own pictures to qualify for the contest. Photographic supplies and the use of the darkroom were made available at all times for use of the club members.

With over sixty members on the role, many interesting projects were com- pleted. First semester was spent for the most part having the new members give dramatic readings or, working in small groups, put on plays during club meetings in order that the other mem- bers might become better acquainted with them and learn their acting potentialities. During the second semester the group presented a one-act comedy entitled RICH MAN, POOR MAN for the students and the Clarion Civic Club. Much credit is due Miss Pemberton, who spent many hours directing this venture. Of the many projects, one of the highlights was the College Players ' Banquet held in the spring.

Panel discus- sions, debates, and group discussions give members an opportunity to present the pros and cons of each topic. This semester the club discussed Racial Discrimination in the Southern States. Two guest speakers revealed present day conditions in Korea and the educational system in Greece. It has been the custom and highlight of the year for the club members to visit the United Nations Assembly in New York. In past years the trip has proved educational as well as interesting and exciting. This trip was planned again in April. There is also a brighter side to the club which adds various social activities. Each fall the club enjoys a weiner roast at Cook Forest, where new members have a chance to become better acquainted with the club. During the Christmas holidays, a party is held in the chapel and members are entertained by movies, games, dancing, etc. Membership in the I. R.

Highlighting the year ' s activities are several outings to Cook ' s Forest during which the members participate in Softball, archery, dancing, and the traditional hike along the Nature Trail. When the weatherman permits, tabog- goning is also enjoyed. The Club also takes an annual rip to Pymatuning Dam where they visit the fish hatcheries, Pymatuning museum, and other points of interest. Another annual project is the sponsoring of the Winter Car- nival. Although there was no snow, some of the activities could be carried out. Main event of the day was the dance and the crowning of the Winter Carnival queen. Club sponsor, Dr. Donald Predmore, deserves much credit for the continued success of the club.

At the present time, the club is composed of thirty members, and membership is open to all students who wish to join. The organization has repaired the rifle range in the base- ment of Davis Hall, where meetings are held every Thursday evening. The purpose of the Rifle Club is to teach the proper use and care of firearms and to improve the marksmanship of the mem- bers. Other means of recreation are available to members when they are not on the range. The Student Senate granted the club an appropriation which enabled it to join the National Riflemen ' s Association. Member- ship in this organization resulted in an application to the Federal Government for free guns, cleaning rods, and targets. The re- mainder of the appropriation was spent for transportation, bonds, and insurance for the rifles. Ammunition can be purchased at the meeting at a price slightly above cost. This enables the Rifle Club to make a small profit and the members to buy shells at a reduced price. The Rifle Club is grateful to Mr. Flack for his time and energy, to Dr. Chandler and the Student Senate for their co- operation, and to Mr. Tippin for the use of the gymnasium mats. The members appreciate the thoughtfulness of these people and many others who helped in the organization of the Rifle Club. Row 1— Wilma Lane, Donna Bauer, Beverly Towns, Marjory Seese.

Now the largest organization on campus, the S. C. A. through the help of its members, strives to provide Christian fellowship and worship for anyone who desires it and to meet the spiritual needs of Clarion students. These purposes are accomplished through well-planned programs which are held each Wednesday evening in the Chapel. Chris- tian worship and thinking have been stirred by the many inspira- tional and challenging programs of speakers, films, panel dis- cussions, and musical festivals, which are preceded by a period of devotion and meditation. ow 1— Doris Benninger, Sue Buzard, arjery Cross, Mary Smith, Marilyn IcDaniel, Donna Flockerzi.

On the other hand, Christian fellowship has been achieved also in parties and group preparations. In addition to being interested in campus activities, the S. C. A. has reached out and at different times its members spoke for and participated in local churches and church organizations; and much pleasure was experienced by the group in sending clothes to aid the work of Miss Doris Bloomster, who is working with the Navajo Indians. Some other projects of the S. C. A. were the purchasing of new hymnals, the planning and presentation of the Christmas Chapel program, and Christmas Caroling. The organization also cooperated with the Newman Club for movies, the W. S. S. F. Variety Show, the annual Cook Forest Picnic, and a Christmas nativity scene placed on the campus in front of Seminary Hall. Those various and worthwhile activities have served to bind the group together in Christian brotherhood. Row 1— Edna Servey, Hazel Moore, Ann Root, Janice Divany.

The members of D.S.E. have been pleased with the success achieved in keeping their wholesome perspect- ive and fun loving spirit. Justice and sincerity, whether among the Sisters or in working with others, ever remain an integral part of their lives. One of the activities included in the pro- gram of Delta Sigma Epsilon is the sending of gifts and letters to their Carville Patient. Also, as a money-making project, Student Directories are planned, printed, and distributed annually.

Many alumni and present members have come to look upon this event as one of the outstanding features of Homecoming day and attendance this year reached a new high. The newsletter to alumni and the sale of stationery were other first semester activities, while the second semester found rushing and the pledge banquet occupying the spotlight. With a large and talented group of pledges joining the fraternity this year, the Gammas show promise of continuing the fine spirit of friendship and brotherhood for which they have always been noted.

Since national requirements are high, including participation in both acting and stage work, membership is small and consid- ered a coveted honor. Clarion ' s Alpha Upsilon chapter lost two members as Janu- ary graduates, leaving one active member, Anne Abbey, and one pledge, Arlene Norbury.

With talented freshman entrants, the band this year was able to add many new numbers to their concert repertoire. First semester activities were confined mainly to preparing and playing for football season. With snappy music and march- ing routines, the band added color and spirit to college football games. Trips were made during second semester, and concerts played at four district high schools. An assembly concert was presented to the student body in March.

It has for several years given concerts in churches and high schools in Western Pennsylvania. The Choir ' s repertoire consists mostly of sacred selections, but also includes secular numbers used in the high school pro- grams. This year the choir was fortunate in having several solo- ists included in its membership, who added color and highlights. Another special feature was the addition of a ballet dancer who performed with the choir. During the Christmas season, the choir presented Handel ' s Messiah in the college Chapel. This is an annual event. The choir gained many new members this year and shows definite promise for the future. Several members of last year ' s choir attended the Intercollegiate All-State Choir held this year in Slippery Rock.

JcctMl Clarion continued its fine gridiron play of recent years by compiling an enviable five and two record and placing four players on various all-state selections. Co-captained by Pete Caristo, hard running fullback from Robinson Twp., and Richard Headrick, a great competitive center from Conemaugh — the Golden Eagle Split-T machine rolled over Edinboro, St. Vincent, California, Slippery Rock and Brockport (N. Y.). The only setbacks were sustained at the hands of a tough Waynesburg eleven and a heartbreaking upset by rival Indiana. Caristo received first string berths on the N. A. I. A. State Teachers College Conference, and District Class B all-star teams, while Juniors Ted Wisniewski, Jim Verbanac, and John Coyne made honorable mention on the latter selection. Among the seniors who contributed greatly to the excellent season were co-captains Caristo and Headrick, along with Joe Devey, Dave Stewart, Jim Cavalancia, and Walt Zurasky. Halfback Ted Wisniewski and Quarterback Sam Carnabucci were honored for their fine play, sportsmanship, and leadership by being elected co-captains for the 1955 season.

Noticeably lacking in overall height, the Clarion cagers were forced to rely on speed and hustle as their main weapons. Dis- playing a fast-breaking offense, the Blue and Gold provided the local fans with an interesting brand of ball. For the second year in succession, Ray Chess, 6 ' 3 junior center, led the librarians in scoring, with Pete Bono, an ever hustling guard as runner-up. After winning six of their first seven contests, the Carnahan crew slumped in mid-season, but roared back into consideration for a possible NAIA playoff berth. A late season loss at Cali- fornia ended any hopes of tournament play, but the Eagles re- bounded to defeat Edinboro and wind up with an impressive slate. Prospects are even brighter for next season ' s squad as Cap- tain Don Reno and Chuck Campbell will be the only squad mem- bers lost by graduation. Barring service calls and withdrawals, the Golden Eagles should once again rise to the top of the district small college standings.

SaAekatl Falling victim to an unseasonably wet spring, Coach Charles Milnes ' Eagle nine managed to play some excellent baseball when given the opportunity. Although the schedule was curtailed by the inclement weather, the local squad managed to play six games, winning two while dropping four. The brilliant pitching and batting of Pete Caristo and the all-around play of shortstop Jim McCullough and third baseman Frank Sigmund featured Clarion ' s attack. Perhaps the most im- pressive showing of the librarians was a 1 3 to 3 triumph over Westminster. With Caristo slated to coach this season ' s nine, a complete rebuilding job is in order, as most of last year ' s squadmen are no longer in school. Row 1— Bill Hajdukiewicz, Jim Whittle, Dick King, Bill Westcott, Jim Petzold, Ross Damaso. Carnabucci, Bob Murphy, John Coffman, Ernie Lewis, Joseph Lynch, Tom Carnahan. Temti Hampered by the lack of a home court and experienced players, Coach T. A. Carnahan ' s netters failed to gain a victory in the abbreviated 1954 season. All of the five defeats were suffered away from home. Despite the many reverses, however, Coach Carnahan worked hard in developing his stalwarts for future seasons. The squad was composed mainly of freshmen and players with little or no experience. If the courts can be repaired in time for the opening serve, this factor, plus the added experience of the competitors, will once more return the Golden Eagles to the upper ranks of Tennis- dom.

This organization ' s aim is not only to stimulate interests in girls athletics, but to foster the spirit of good sportsmanship in friendly competition. In previous years, membership was determined on a point system. However, the group plans to initiate more liberal re- quirements next year. Mrs. Dougherty, club sponsor, has given able backing to this program. Girls intramurals on campus include: volleyball, basketball, softball, badminton, hiking and ping pong. During the year, W. A. A. members travel to play days at various colleges. In the past, the group has gone to Cook ' s Forest and also sponsored a banquet at which time awards are given to de- serving members.

VarAitij C OFFICERS President Pete Caristo Vice President Don Reno Secretary Sam Carnabucci Treasurer Sam Rogal The Varsity C Club, one of the oldest organizations on the Clarion campus, is com- posed of all letter winners in any major sport. The club serves a threefold purpose: To promote sportsmanship, to create an interest in athletics among the men of the college, and to supervise all athletic activities of the school. In addition to fulfilling all these objectives, the club also endeavors to reward the men who win letters in any major sport. With this in mind, the following system of awards has been de- vised to honor the lettermen: First Year Award Letter C Second Year Award Sweater Third Year Award Jacket Fourth Year Award Blanket The funds to purchase the awards are raised by the Varsity C through their opera- tion of the concession stands at all football and basketball games. The Varsity C is deeply indebted to Mr. Waldo S. Tippin, athletic director and head foot- ball coach, who serves most capably as the sponsor of the club. Left to right — Rita Gene Craig, Carol Spag Ann Staley. Cheerleader An added attraction at all football and basketball games are our five peppy cheerleaders. Always faithful, they did much to build up the morale of both team and spectators. Each fall representatives of the student body elect new cheerleaders. They are chosen on the basis of their cheering ability, poise, personality, and pep. After being elected for two consecutive years, the girl is awarded a sweater and is there- upon considered a permanent member of the cheering section without the necessity of trying out. The squad this year consisted of: Fran Walsh, a junior from Clarion; Rita Craig, a junior from Beaver; Carol Spagiare, a sophomore from Bridgeville; Doris Staley, a freshman from Clar- ion; and Barb Mcllhatten, a freshman from Knox.

The scene, one of great activity. The occasion, Homecoming Day, 1954. The day dawned with the special Homecoming edition of the Clarion Call announcing the hitherto well-kept secret that Miss Shirley Walker, charming sen- ior from Butler, had been chosen by the student body to reign over the day ' s festivities. Alumni, who had been arriving since the night before, turned out in full force, along with students and interested townspeople, to view the annual Home- coming Parade. This year ' s parade, under a parade committee capably headed by Oil City senior, Dick Neubauer, instituted a theme to dominate the parade. The theme chosen was Pages from Mother Goose , with each of the float entries cleverly portraying one of the well-known nursery rhymes. Prizes of $40, $25, and $10 were awarded to Sigma Sigma Sigma, Lambda Chi Delta, and Sigma Tau Gamma respectively for the best floats by the Clarion Chamber of Commerce. After the floats made their final appearance for the benefit of the spectators already crowding the bleachers, the game began. At halftime, the coronation ceremony was performed on the field with the band setting the stage and serenading Queen Shirley after co-captains Pete Car- isto and Dick Headrick placed upon her head the garland marking her royalty. The exciting game ended in disappointment to Clarion fans, but not even the ten-point loss could dampen the enthusiasm of students and alumni, and the dance that evening was satisfactorily crowded, repaying the seniors for the time spent in decorating and making arrangements. The dance committee, headed by Anne Govaletz and Cliff Keth, chose the theme Homecoming — Then and Now , and Harvey Gym became the scene of contrasts between past and present. With the strains of the last song echoing in their minds, all reviewed the events of a very successful and exciting Homecoming Day and began making plans for Homecoming, 1955. The Queen . .
