Clarkston Senior High School 6595 Middle Lake Road Clarkston, Michigan Recognition Through Dedication There are many virtues which make up an outstanding personality. Mrs. Marilyn Hanson, to whom we dedicate the 1963 Hilltopper has instilled within her character the highest of these qualities. Since 1954, when Mrs. Hanson left Lake Orion High School and came to Clarkston, she has carried with her and transmitted to her students, the standards of higher education and professional dignity. The essentials necessary to communicate with students of all ages and backgrounds can be found in her teaching record. In the field of social studies she has taught students the basics in Michigan History, World History and U.S. History. With a Masters degree in Physical Education she has created good sportsmanship and formed a basis for alert minds through building sound bodies. Her leadership ability has been felt by past seniors when she served as an ardent class sponsor, and by Pep Club and Future Nurses Club students when she served as their sponsor. In the community Mrs. Hanson is recognized for her numerous guest appearances and planning of programs. She participates in a bowling league of which she is President. Today, Mrs. Hanson has been a guiding hand to almost every student within the walls of Clarkston High School. For now she serves as Counselor, the newest of her many positions in which she has been a tremendous asset to the total school guidance program. There is not a student at Clarkston who does not feel he can depend on her for help. Being a Counselor she belongs to the Oakland Area Counselors Association besides having membership in the Michigan Education Association and the National Education Association. It is because of the deep affection all Clarkston has for its outstanding faculty member, that we, the students dedicate to our Counselor, Mrs. Marilyn Hanson, the 1963 Hilltopper. Mrs. Hanson, as counselor, has been of tremendous help to the students by assisting them in evaluating themselves through knowledge of their own strengths and weaknesses. The students then are able to make the wisest decision in regard to their present and future plans. She is shown here after a conference with Connie Buzzell, Punky Golem-beske and Bev Galligan. 2 Mrs. Marilyn Hanson is one of the most outstanding faculty members to have taught at Clarkston High School. In her office she holds numerous conferences, through which she transmits knowledge and experience to the student seeking help. 3 Contents Title Page................................

With the intensity of study becoming greater, taking advantage of the vast educational resources offered in high school becomes greater, also. Technical training in the field of science, mechanics of mathematics, progressive study in commercial courses and social studies, and practical courses through electives, all combine to put educational opportunities at our fingertips. But the academic status of a school is not the only means of preparing students for the future. Through athletics, social activities, and organizations, we are taught the fundamentals of sportsmanship, etiquette, and leadership. These qualities, combined with academic progress, better prepare us for success in business, at home or in higher educational institutions. Thus we can secure the promise of a profitable future through achievements, failures and experiences. Vicki Burley, studying her Senior English and Dave Haviland, learning the basics of American Governm nt, are examples of students advancing their knowledge of the present to meet the challenges of the future. Stimulating the Desire to Learn.... Molding the youth of today for tomorrow, building the adults of the future, preparing students for the challenges that will arise to meet them in the ensuing years — the faculty of Clarkston Senior High School works for the betterment of the world through education and knowledge. Training, not only in scholastic areas, but in social adjustment and moral wellbeing, will provide the basis for a rewarding and stable life. With the faculty fulfilling their educational obligations, students will be able to meet the challenges of modern society. A teacher’s ability to stimulate the desire to learn in his students is demonstrated by Mr. Dave Jones. While waiting a response from a student he represents the medium through which youth is educated. Communication With The World’s People Mr. Don Lytle Head of English Department Olivet Nazarene College A.B. degree English Miss Janet Gabier Central Michigan University B.A. degree Ski Club Sponsor English Mr. William Smith University of Notre Dame Fordham University University of Michigan B.S. and M.A. degrees English and Latin Miss Nancy Mouw Western Michigan University B.A. degree Sophomore Class Sponsor French Mrs. Patricia Czarnecki Western Michigan University B.A. degree English Miss Donna Chilvers Central Michigan University B.A., S.A. degrees Debate Sponsor Junior Play Sponsor English As travel barriers are broken it becomes evident that better communication among people of the world is essential. But the means of communications are based on our knowledge of language -- its usage, and the highest obtainable level of its comprehension. By carefully directing the students in the use of our native language, the English staff adequately prepares us for such occasions. Thorough knowledge of the English language is a necessity for every student, thus the advantage of learning other languages is also an essential quality. The French department with its new and modern language laboratory, and our Latin department, offer students of foreign languages the best possible training. By learning the customs as well as their languages, students gain a complete knowledge of the country. With these combined qualities learning to understand other people is interesting and exciting. In the language laboratory, students are able to better learn the languages on one of the important nations in the world today-France. Using the facilities to their greatest advantage are: Row 1; Marlene Smith and Caroline Richmond. Row 2; Sue Munsee, Eric Lausten and Sue Hampshire. Row 3; Gary Bass, Brenda Shannon, Terry Powell, James Woodard and Fred Schwarze. Row 4; Sandra Smalley.

For Democratic Relations In The Universe Throughout our nation today there is a great emphasis being placed on learning the basic principles upon which the country’s history is based. More and more students are finding the need to put more history into their schedule in order to prepare themselves for the ever-increasing need of more leaders for tomorrow. Hence, students are encouraged to think before they prepare their schedules. Government, Michigan History, World History, and many more courses are offered and widely advised in the field of Social Studies. Social Studies not only teach the heroisms of the past but also our ancestors mistakes. Through this we should be able to prepare adequately for the future. Going through the procedure of placing a bill on the floor for debate in Senate are from left to right: Barb Armstrong, Janet Tisch, Diana Crites, George Durci, Jon Studebaker and Pam Lovejoy. Mr. Leigh Bonner Head of Social Studies Department B.A. degree Eastern Michigan University World History, U.S. History To learn the basic geographical, historical, and present day knowledge of our state is the principle on which Michigan State History is founded. Jeff Drake and Marsha Hoskins are learning the locations of earlier historical landmarks, so important in understanding our present day culture.

Math, Gen. Science Mr. Lee Hathaway Wayne State University B.A. degree Science Club Sponsor Chemistry Mr. Patrick Nowak Central Michigan University B.S. degree Algebra Mr. Gilbert Haven Central Michigan University B.S. degree Geometry The mathematics and science departments offer more than adequate provisions for a background in their perspective fields. Mastering these courses requires a student to have training in the use of the Micro-Projector, Baush and Lomb Spectronic 20s, Spectroscopes, Line Charts, and other specialized equipment. Science offers fundamental classes for aspiring students in our technical world. Biology, Chemistry and Physics are among the courses presented for the instruction of the high school students. Each of us will one day be involved in solving a problem through the use of mathematics. At Clarkston there are both basic and advanced courses offered to fulfill the fundamental needs of the mathematic student. At Left: While lecture is all-important in the teaching of chemistry, actually preparing and observing a chemical reaction is the best way to acquaint students with the many complexities of the subject. Observing the separation of a liquid from a solid by distilation, a basic experiment, are Vicky Robitaille and Jim Peloquin. Below: First year algebra offers students the opportunity to form a basic knowledge of systems of mathematics and their use. Mr. David Skillman prepares his class for new material by describing briefly the main objective of the lesson. Listening attentively to the new material being covered are, from left to right: Sue Peters, Margaret Keech, Sandy Brown, Charlene Rust, Virginia Luth and Carolyn Stierstorfer.

These extra curricular courses are offered to students who want to enter the commercial field of business — as secretaries, stenographers and other types of occupations which require office skills. The student acquires his office skills through the use of modern equipment and up to date methods of teaching. But utmost to remember is that through his knowledge of these crafts he is more than well aware of the mechanics of the business world. It is the purpose of the Industrial Arts courses to provide the proper training for students in the mechanical fields. Clarkston’s shop facilities, comparing favorably with any in the country, are used to the greatest advantage. Importance in these fields cannot be overstressed, as the world rises on the shoulders of the industrialists. At Right: One of the basic fundamentals that every student should know if he is to better succeed in high school and college, is the art of typing. The first year typing students are given extensive training in the proper use of the typewriter to prepare them for second year training. Below: Wood lathing is only one of the vast industrial activities that are performed daily in the school shops. Larry Martin is caref ully adding the final touches to a chair leg as John Maier and Raymond Rust watch intently. Students Learn Intensified Skills....

The many facilities of the library are used throughout the day by the students of C.H.S. To develop a better understanding and appreciation of the refined arts among students is the main objective of the Fine Arts Departments. Comprehending the values of music and applying them to present knowledge is the goal set by music students, who provide the public with entertaining instrumental conceits and vocal programs throughout the academic year. Arts and crafts enable students to further their perception of life by bringing out creative interests and abilities, Through the use of their minds and hands, students find culture interesting and satisfying. Found within the library are vast shelves of reference, fiction, non-fiction, and periodical literature, designed to help the student with present needs in that field. The vocational file holds the key to future occupations and careers with numerous catalogs and pamphlets. With all this information made easily available, the library functions for the benefit of the students. Our permanent substitute has given hours of time to maintain any instruction in the classroom in the absence of a regular staff member. Under his jurisdiction also falls the audio-visual aid programs. This includes distributing film catalogs to teachers, ordering films and instructing students in the mechanics of operating projectors. Through participation in these fields we gain a vast amount of knowledge and understanding of the culture of our society. 14 And Prepare For a Modern World In an exciting game during gym class between two ninth grade teams, Richard Amante and Bill Swayne strain for possession of the ball.

Background for many occupations in the world of tomorrow lies within this classroom. Not only future homemakers are found here, but writers for women’s magazines, clothing buyers, textile chemists, dietitians, and radio and television personalities. For those pursuing a career in these fields and others, there are unlimited horizons. Our physical education classes provide group participation in many activities, helping to prepare each student to become better physically fit. Teamwork and individual sports instill better athletic skills and standards of sportsmanship in the student. Calisthenics before group sports, such as basketball, volleyball, and tumbling teach the rules of sportsmanship and teamwork. Through active participation each student learns the value of being physically fit and mentally alert. Shelter, as one of the necessities of life, brings into , our scope a new dimension — that of mechanical drawing. Before construction on any building begins, the plans must be blueprinted and put to scale. Mechanical drawing classes prepare the architects of tomorrow for their never-ending challenges. 15 The art of cake baking and decorating is demonstrated by Judy Ragatz, Diane Walker and Margaret Enden. Providing For Extra Privileges In School., Mrs. Marilyn Hanson Western Michigan University MacMurray College B S. and M.S. degrees Girls Counselor Mr. Dom Mauti Head of Physical Education Department Eastern Michigan University B.S. degree Varsity Club Sponsor Varsity Basketball Coach Boys Counselor Mr. Barry Breidenbaugh Indiana State Teachers College B.S. degree Special Education Mr. Ralph Thayer Eastern Michigan University B.S. degree Driver Education Mrs. Lawric Burnette Lambuth College B.S. degree Publications John Knox and Cheryl Cullen are preparing themselves for an hour of driving. Dale Allsop and Dennis Szeremet have just completed their hour at the wheel. Our futures lie as dim horizons until an experienced voice speaks to us with knowledge and understanding, and helps us prepare ourselves for adult life. The counseling staff begins to prepare students in their freshman year to meet the challenges of the future. Vocations, colleges, high school courses and activities are discussed and planned. It is then up to the student to use the advice and counsel to the utmost. With the complicated network of our modern roads presenting greater and greater challenges to the well-educated driver, it is the responsibility of the school to instill in all future drivers the qualities which characterize a good a iomobile operator. The driver’s training staff patiently- prepares pupils for tomorrow’s more advanced automotive mechanics. The Work-Experience Program is provided for the special education student at the senior high school level. In addition to the required subjects which are directed toward job preparation, this phase of the program provides help in specific problems of job preparation during and prior to actual job placement. The special education teacher acts as job coordinator, and works closely with the student, employer, and parents in the process of job placement. Upon actual placement, the teacher continues his coordinating activities with an intensive follow-up. The success of the special education student in actual job placement is one of the major factors in meeting requirements for graduation on the Work-Experience Program. The purpose of speech correction is to help prepare the student for present and future social contact. Speech correction in the Senior High School is available for those students desiring to improve personal speaking habits. Classes are designed to describe areas of weakness to the individual, and methods to strengthen and improve these areas. The individual is given the responsibility of improvement outside of class in normal speaking situations. Preparing for a future in journalism, the members of the publications staff, fulfill to the utmost, their duties as newspaper and yearbook publishers. While practicing individual writing techniques each adds a bit of color to the pages of the Hilltopper or Wolf Cry. Punctuation, capitalization - all the rules of writing must be followed accurately to insure the success of each publication. Newspapermen and yearbook staff members practice daily the rules of writing for the coming enjoyment of the reader of the Wolf Cry and Hilltopper. With the combined qualities of these groups maintaining hard work with a sincere interest in what they are doing today, the Wolf Cry and Hilltopper are turned out in the tradition of Clarkston Senior High. Choosing the right college is of the utmost importance to seniors. The counselors are always ready to go over all Michigan College bulletins at any time with the interested students. Various Problems Are Met Efficiently... Numerous times, when we needed assistance, we turned to our competent custodial staff, always getting help beyond their many daily tasks. Keeping our school in excellent condition, they have made it an institution of which we can be proud. Throughout the entire year, our qualified kitchen staff prepares well balanced, appetizing meals for the entire school. Having a difficult job, and doing it excellently, they have provided us with nutritious and enjoyable meals. Our day at school is important, but getting to and from school is a large responsibility which is fulfilled by our indispensible bus drivers. They also assisted us when we needed a driver for a spectator or player bus. Waiting for the students to board their buses are our competent bus drivers: Row 1; Elaine Tones, Janet Trarop, Raymond Cooper, Marshall White, and Richie Parks.

Mr. Milford Mason serves Clarkston Senior High School as Principal, performing with efficiency and high standards the many difficult tasks involved in meeting the problems of a large high school. His office is the scene of many consultations with troubled students, college bound students, and students in need of advice concerning school projects. The office of Mr. Terry Thomas, Assistant Principal in charge of Guidance, finds almost every student at one time or another seeking help for future plans. His thorough knowledge of colleges, technical schools, scholarship plans and other student aids is offered to every student at least once during the academic year. Mr. George Barrie, Administrative Assistant, aids in the coordination of educational activities within the elementary schools of our system. Seen here in his office, he spends countless hours checking over new material that may be used in the education of Clarkston Elementary School students. Supervising Today’s Early morning tasks completed, Dr. L.F. Greene, Superintendent of Clarkston Community Schools, leaves the new administration building for lunch.

Mr. Floyd Vincent, Assistant to the Superintendent has countless duties to face each day. In his office at the Administration Building he supervises many various activities concerning the betterment of community schools, including those of buses, funds for the school, and new school sites. 18 Methods of Student Education While upon the teachers of today rests the responsibility of educating youth, upon school administrations rests the responsibility of supervising-educational systems and planning for the school's future. Clarkston Community Schools Administration follows with preciseness the standards they have set to maintain a high level of education for the youth of Clarkston. Presenting an enterprising picture of efficiency, cooperation and organization, the Administration has maintained their goal of higher education and better educational facilities. With a new elementary school being planned for the near future, their duties will undoubtedly be made more difficult, but if met with the excellence of today's problems, the new ones of tomorrow will be taken in their stride. The Board of Education, meeting in the Administration building, carries with its decisions policies that will effect the school and its students not only today, but also in years to come.

W'hile always able to aid students, she still serves as Mr. Mason's secretary, devoting many hours to meet the demands of a school secretary. 19 Seen here in the early morning writing a tardy slip is. Mrs. Dottie Allen, Secretary to Mr. Mason. She has among her many secretarial duties those of recording report card grades, and organizing the selling of books to the high school's students. Our Minds Thirst For Knowledge Our minds thirst for knowledge, so we delve into the halls of learning to place ourselves among the ranks of the intellectual; we have kept our bodies physically fit through exercise to maintain mental fitness ; and we developed individual personalities through social activities with fellow students. These are the varied ways through which a Clarkston High School student molds his mind, body, and personality for encounters of the future. Ignorance is thrust from his world as he gradually develops into an educated and intellectual human being. ... Mary Hinkley, Carl Wilberg, Larry Gardner and Kathy Bird find within the shelves of the library valuable information for their respective term papers. Such intensive study and research as a term paper requires, stimulates the learning qualities and retention powers of each of them. 21 Proper Guidance In Our Freshman Year Beginning one’s first year in high school with the proper guidance is an all-important factor in getting a well rounded education. Since knowledge is the essence of success, accumulating as much education as possible during each passing year is the ultimate aim of every student. Being Freshmen this goal seemed early in the making, but nevertheless, most important. Under the leadership and instruction of the Clarkston High School faculty, we learned not only how to use the tools of education, but the combined qualities of participation and leadership. Our freshman year has been an exciting and rewarding experience, and with the knowledge gained during this past year, the future which is built on today, will come as a challenge. . . .ready to be met.

Participation in such activities as Student Government, Who's Who, Pep Club, and other organizations, instilled within us the desire to expand our knowledge of citizenship and cooperation. Homecoming, dances, football and basketball games were gradually worked into our busy schedules. With the acceptance of social life, we gradually learned to combine the academic life of high school with its exciting social activities.

Robert Adcock Dennis Aikin Harold Allen Paul Allen Randy Armstrong Pamela Arnett Janell Ash Pam Atchison Patrick Atchison Carolyn Atkins Bill Bailey Anne Banjoff One of the most eventful years of high school for students is their Sophomore year, for it is at this time the realization of belonging to high school emerges. Being not the youngest in a new world, nor the oldest with immediate problems of the future to face, a Sophomore's life is exciting and fun. One of the most exciting events of the year was the ordering of class rings. By making our own selection we had the opportunity to choose what we wanted and exert our will as individuals. Through the year we held dances, and soon were part of Homecoming, preparing for its festivities, cheerleading, playing Varsity football, basketball, and numerous other activities. Richard Bellehumeur Ethel Bessinger Louis Biles Willa Birchett Pat Bishop Leo Blimka Mary Boggs Brenda Boyce Shelby Boyce Ken Brewer Talking over the distribution of class rings are class sponsor, Mr. Ralph Kenyon; President, Dave Coulter; Vice-President, Robyn Rutzen; Secretary, Tinki Pedigo; Point Secretary, Carol Cinader; and Treasurer, Randy Armstrong.

Amid all the excitement and fun, that ever pressing thought of the future emerged. We began to investigate possible college choices of vocations, trying to find a field that would satisfy our future goals and desires. From the knowledge that we found in libraries, and from the counselors, preparing for the future was not tedious or disheartening task. 31 Irene Doner Leslie Dyer Helen Earls Lucy Embrey Elaine Farner Francis Federspiel J im Ferguson Donna Ferrand Harley Ferree Sharon Ferris Vicki Fife Gary Fitch Garry Foraker Barry Fortin Roberta Fortino Jon Foster Everett Fredericks Mike Fulton Richard Funk Linda Gaddis John Garlak Linda Garrett Charles Golden Nancy Gottschall Pam Gordon Bob Gray Herbert Green David Gunter Cynthia Hagemeister Jerry Haggitt Dennis Haise-r Joyce Haiser J ohn Hallmark Bill Hamilton Sue Hampshire Linda Haney Carl Hardy Barbara Harris Betty Harris Dale Hartman Linda Haynes Kris Haywood Donna Helvey Jeff Hetherington Paul Hinkley Marie Holler Paul Hood Dennis Horrall Linda Hoskinson Lon Howey James Hubbard Dale Humbert Russell Inman Jim Jackson See James Linda Jantz Dave Jenereaux Danny Jenks Glenn J en senius Mike Johnson John Jones Alan Kasten Our Goals, Organization of Future As Sophomores, we found that we could choose our own curriculum to a greater extent. We could take more advanced courses in academic and elective areas. During the process of taking these advanced subjects, a potential for the future was established. Whether or not this storage of knowledge will be used, only the next years can tell.

Sponsors, Mr. Thompson and Mr. Schroeder lend their advice to these Junior Class officers. It was the belief of all juniors that every second of the 1962-63 school year was enjoyed to its fullest. A huge magazine selling campaign, pitting the juniors against the seniors, caused excitement as each individual did his best to bring in the highest amount of subscriptions. Dances were held throughout the year, providing entertainment for many weekends; but the high-point of the season was the Prom a new and exciting experience in the lives of these high school students. Operating a concession stand during the basketball season provided an educational as well as an interesting endeavor in the world of business.

From the foundation laid in high school, a senior is able to advance into institutions of higher learning and make ready his step into the future. Once a goal has been attained, the time it took to attain that goal seems but a fraction of time it will last. Such ideas as this filled the minds of each senior at graduation. All too soon the year had gone by—studying, social hours, athletics, and clubs-each senior thought back as he Responsible for the business and social undertakings of the senior class are the class elected officers and sponsors. Seen here planning the graduat on and commencement program are, from left to right: Carl Wilberg, President; Sponsors. Mr. David proceeded further along the path of life. And we are no different. Our Senior Trip, anxiously worked and awaited for four years came and passed all too quickly. As did the Sr. Play, Variety Show, Magazine Sales, Announcements, Senior Pictures and the Prom. But such is the way of high school. If it was not for the all around training we received each day, academically and socially, attaining higher goals in life would be made more difficult. As it is now, however, we are well prepared to face the future, to meet its many faces and personalities and to take our place among an educated society.

Exchanging with other members of the class, portraits which are lasting memories, provided hours of fun for each class member. The Senior Trip came next on the agenda. Points earned during four years of high school provided the money for the five day trip to Washington D.C. With both the trip and senior pictures lingering memories, a next step toward graduation would be the Prom, and a final fling to end the year.

While long hours of study and plans for the future are for the time forgotten, each participates in those activities reserved only for the senior year. The Senior play serves as an example, for the time spent in preparation and planning of the production will never be replaced in the minds of the participants. The Prom served as our last link with high school social life and the atmosphere of dim lights and midnight meals. Finally graduation. What is more fun than after graduation parties where everyone is together, forgetting all the trying moments spent in high school, and thinking of the happy ones each has planned for the future. Edith McClard Gordon Mclnnes Richard Moore Leona Neidig Raymond Ott Jon Parrott Terry Powell Betty Raby As each class graduates from Clarkston, they leave behind many memories of their four-year presence.

Even though graduation from high school is a milestone in the life of each individual, it cannot be accepted without some feeling of deep emotion. Whether that emotion be sad or happy depends on the individual, and what he made of his high school years. Much had to be learned, for one does not attend daily lectures, lab classes and work periods, and not absorb some particles of knowledge. For most of us, however, we learned and studied to the best of our ability and the education necessary to further advance along the road of learning was gained steadily. We are better prepared now to face the future, and advance to greater lengths our growing knowledge.

Through participation the student gains knowledge of the purposes and functions of a club; through cooperation he learns the meaning of sportsmanship and compromise; and through leadership he gains experience in responsibility. Organizations lend a hand not only to students who wish to belong but to members of the community as well. They help to mold the student into a well-rounded person, ready to meet challenges of the future with an insight on the problems of today. Organizations in Clarkston High School provide students with the opportunity to develop and cultivate individual talents in the fields which most interest them. While each student is mainly concerned with the activities his organization is involved in, so also are they concerned with other activities taking place around the school. One of the best ways students found to keep up with the flurry of events was to read well the school newspaper, the Wolf Cry. Mike Simonson, Trudy Kobrak, Pete Wilford, Betty Cobb and Janet Tisch are seen reading over one week’s happenings, while Jack Lundy is buying his paper from Lynn Ellsworth and Marcie Fox. 49 Betty Cobb, President, spends many hours in the office discussing with Mr. Mason the plans the government has for helping the student body. After a weekly meeting plans for an exchange student were submitted to the office. Responsibilities Through the years our Student Government has helped to build a better school for the students of Clarkston High. This year their many fine accomplishments included the variety show, the Care Program, dress up days, and special assemblies. The members of the Student Government were chosen last September from the 9th, 10th, and 11th grade English classes and the Senior Government classes. They were elected by the classmates whom they would represent through the year. These representatives served as intermediates between the students and the Student Government; they kept the students informed of various activities planned; and carried Vicki Burley, Connie Buzzell and Nancy Stanquits listen eagerly as George White introduces new plans for the ’63 Variety Show. 50 George White, informing Student Government representatives of an upcoming exchange day program with Bloomfield Hills is fulfilling one of the many duties he carries as Student Government Vice-President. Members seated are, (Row 1): Cathie Woodward, Kathy Golembeske, Connie Buzzell, Cor-inne Blackett, and Nancy Stanquits. (Row 2): Joan Mansfield, Robyn Rutzcn, Theresa Wooley, and Peggy Norris. (Row 3): Randy Locklar, Sue Dengate, Martha Terry, and Heidi Buehrig. After a third hour Student Government meeting, Cathy DeLorge, Secretary, and Sue Hampshire, Treasurer, leave the auditorium and return to class with news of the meeting. Provide for Tomorrow’s Leadership the students ideas and suggestions to the meetings. Once each month members of the Student Government are selected to attend the League Student Council, where they are able to exchange ideas with other school representatives. Through their work with the school1 and League Councils, students learn team work, school spirit, and cooperation in student-school relationships. By learning respect for authority, citizenship, and the basic principles of democracy, the members of the Student Government become better citizens today, and better Americans of tomorrow. •Hew members of the Student Government must learn some of the basic .and fundamental operations of parlimentary procedure. Reviewing the procedure each member is expected to follow during meetings is Mr. Bob Mills and representatives (Row 1): Karen John son, Cindy Alexander, Jane Thrift, Linda Bennett, Sandy Smalley, and Kathy DeArmond. (Row 2): Gloria Bridges, Alice Staley, Nola Wells, and Ron Fusilier. Student Government Workshop offers students the opportunity to keep informed as to new government procedures and their effectiveness. Leaving for a workshop meeting are, from left to right, Cathy DcLorge, Vicki Burley, Betty Cobb, Sheila Goins, Carol Walter, George White, Lucy Embrey, Jacquie Leonard, Karen King, Sue Hampshire, and Paul Hinkley. Organized Help for Today’s Problems Respect from the student body and members of the community has been gained by the Y-Teens for the outstanding citizenship and contributions they have made toward the betterment of today's society and its many problems. Each member spends many hours preparing gifts and earning money to donate to worthy causes, as the Childrens Home and underprivileged families in the area. Collecting funds for the World Fellowship Fund, they were outstanding in the area. Cupcake sales at school provided the means for members to attend Summer Camp and Mid-Winter Conferences, and through coordinating work with the Hi-Y, the organization was able to carry on certain projects on a larger scale, thus reaching more people and increasing their help in needed areas. Being composed of top rated members, the Y-Teens has provided a means of aid unsurpassed by any other organization within the school. Individual effort put forth for the good of all has taught cooperation and charity; qualities essential for beneficial living in the world of tomorrow. Under the supervision of Miss Terry, the Y-teens plan activities for the benefit of under privileged children. Listening intently to a guest speaker from the Children's Home are (Standing): Miss Terry. Seated (Row 1): Vicki Fife, Carol Cinader, Sheila Goins, Cheryl Cinader, and Betty Cobb. (Row 2): Kathy DeArmond, Linda Rosen, Carol Walter, Kathy Bird, and Linda Hallman.

(Standing): Janet Tisch, Connie Buz- zell, Carol Thompson, Marty Madison, and Cathy De Lorge. Creates Essential Qualities for Tomorrow On their way to a Hi-Y meeting officers and sponsor seem to be joking over the car-wash each of the boys will have to help with over the week-end in the Clarkston parking lot. From left to right officers and sponsor are: Jim Chapman, Chaplin; Dave DeLongchamp, Treasurer, George White, Secretary; Dan Craven, Vice-President; Carl Wilbcrg, President; and Mr. McCurdy, Sponsor. In coordination with the Y-Teens, play nights were held in the school gymnasium every few months of the school year. Planning the activities for the next play night are, from left to right: Garry Foraker, Bill Holcomb, Bob McCarrick, Paul Erickson, Dave Dengate, and Paul Hinkley. Organized for the benefit of others as well as building men sound in body and mind, the Hi-Y has been one of the most dedicated organizations at Clarkston High School. Being also one of the oldest at C.H.S. they have contributed greatly not only to the school but to members of the community as well. They have been responsible for the placement of white posts in the Junior High parking lot, painting of the baseball backstop, and a general clean-up of the school grounds. Today they are responsible for car washes, dances, and aiding underprivileged persons at Christmas time. A distribution of Easter baskets with the Y-Teens was-given to children at the Oakland County Childrens Home. Preparing the Hi-Y members for future society through the building of higher personal standards has been the main accomplishment of the organizations existence. The young men of today are being trained to live as the outstanding citizens and community members of tomorrow. Every year the Hi-Y donates clothes to the needy children in the school area. Planning their trip to Drayton Plains to purchase these clothes are: (Standing): Fran- cis Federspiel, Jon Gary and Bob Cobb. (Seated): Mike Turek, Bob Kriss, and Mike Simonson. Making plans for the Hi-Y's annual Easter Basket distribution to the Children's Home is one of the many activities the Hi-Y undertakes. Discussing these plans are: Jon Parrott Dave Coulter, Bill Bailey, Ken Abbott and John Wilberg. 1 Preparing Youths For A Scientific The Biology Laboratory is a fascinating place to many of the Science Club members, for it contains interesting species of animal life, plants, and informative charts, all being studied here by Mike Turek, Vicki Burley and Janet Tisch. The Science Club officers symbolize the best of scientifically minded youth of tomorrow. Officers are from left to right: Linda Hallman, Secretary; George White, Vice-President; Fred Lissner, President; Mr. Hanson, Advisor; Mr. Mackson, Advisor; Kathy Bird, Treasurer; and Mr. Kenyon, Advisor. In the Chemistry room, new and modern equipment is found which can heat certain chemicals to high degrees and be the medium through which a chemical reaction is controlled. Shown here with one of the many new pieces of equipment are: Calvin Morgan, Bob Kriss, Dan Craven, Dave DeLong-champ, Bill Holcomb, Jon Gary, and George White. In the Physics room, using the incline plane to experiment with mechanical advantage, are Science Club members Mary Fusilier, Ward Robbins, Lynn Ellsworth, Marcia Booth and Caroline Richmond. World . . . Because of the scientific emphasis placed on students in modem high schools, it becomes necessary to promote extra-curricular activities for scientifically minded students. Science Clubs solve part of the problem for advancement of technical training by providing a means for any interested student to get together with others and share their knowledge. Discussions, movies, lectures, and work in specialized areas of study promote interest while use of the most modern equipment available provides a means of turning this interest into knowledge. In the future, it has become evident that America will come to rely more and more upon the minds of their scientists, and only by organizations such as the Clarkston Science Club can the future of our nation be assured of the necessary quality needed in the scientists of tomorrow. Testing whether a solution was an electrolyte or nonelectrolyte was found to be an exciting project for these Science Club members seen in the Chemistry room at a nightly meeting. From left to right they are: Marty Madison, Connie Buzzell, Corinne Blackett, Mr. Hathaway, sponsor: Roger Pearson, Rick Lausten, David Hollis, and Jim Chapman. Science Club members Fred Lissner, Gordon Mclnnes, Pete Wilford, and Carl Wilberg are in the Physics room experimenting with mechanical advantage in the pully system and the wheel and axle. Informal meetings at night are scheduled by the Science Club where guest speakers are featured and informative movies are shown, either in the Biology room or Little Theater. During a break in a lecture, Vicki Fife, Carol Storm, and Bonnie Marsh discuss some of the points the guest speaker brought up concerning new methods of scientific research. Learning Fundamentals Through Before a person is able to express his opinion with any authority, he must first have the background in doing so. The debate team provides each individual with a chance to state his views on certain subjects to the public. Very few people realize the necessary work that is done just to prepare a debate speech. Material from every possible source must be gathered on the proposal presented, then organized into notes. From these notes a person is able to make a speech, if he has the desire and ability to speak in front of an audience. This year's topic-'Resolved: That the U.S. Government Should Join in Forming A Common Market with Members of the Western Hemisphere, was well studied and organized by our C.H.S. debaters. This along with their influential manner of speaking earned them a 6 to 6 record. Proper gestures and good voice tone are two important qualities of a good speaker. Ron Fusilier uses these qualities to their fullest advantage during a league debate. . v CUu Sng SOme, finCr technicalitics with two debaters, Dave Pylman Notes provide not only a means to quickly prove a point, but also are necessary for organization of thought. Roger Pearson and Rick Lausten go over some vital information during a practice debate. Expressive Speaking Of all the qualities needed to succeed in social and business contacts, the art of public speaking can rank as one of the most essential. Through forensics, students are given the opportunity to choose the field of public speaking they feel can benefit them most. Forensics teaches not only memorization, but poise and gesticulations as well, all qualities found in an outstanding speaker. Whether a student advances from the school contest to the District and Regionals or not, it cannot be denied that the experience gained is valuable. With our society keeping us in constant contact with people from all walks of life and various backgrounds, it is easy to understand the need for correct speaking poise if we are to succeed in tomorrow's world. Vicki Fife represented Clarkston in the school and district contests in the Extempore category. She is seen here in the library studying an article from Newsweek magazine concerning her speech topic. Declamation readings require much memorization on the part of the participant. Robyn Rutzen placed first in the school contest with her reading of The Myth of Progress and Cindy Kolos second with her reading of Accept My People . The Humorous reading category found Carole Hunt (second place) and Carol Walter (first place) staying after school to receive help from Miss Wildon concerning gestures and voice control. Diana Crites and Carol Storm placed first and second respectively in the Interpretative Reading Category of the school forensics contest. Seen here in the dressing rooms, Carol is helping Diana with gestures to the reading of The Creation . 57 Betty Raby, (first place) and Janet Tisch (second place) are seen going onto the stage for practice before the district contest in Brighton. Backbone of Today’s School Spirit Through the pep, spirit and enthusiasm of each student, Clarkston has maintained its high standards of sportsmanship and everlasting school spirit. The Pep Club has been the backbone of student spirit since its beginning many years ago. Its members attend all athletic functions, both home and away, helping to boost the spirit of the crowd in participation with the cheerleaders. Not only has the club been active at all athletic functions, but they have provided many hours of enjoyment by sponsoring dances and a yearly project to send the cheerleaders to camp. They are responsible many times for posters and banners being distributed before a game. Their deep interest in maintaining a high standard of sportsmanship among the spectators has made the Pep Club one of the most respected organizations at Clarkston. Making plans for such a large organization as the Pep Club is not an easy task for officers pictured here, from left to right: Blair Bullard, Treasurer; Leslie Hursfall, President; Marcia Booth, Secretary; Joan Mansfield, Vice-President; and Mr. Bob Casteel, sponsor. Because the Pep Club is one of the largest organizations in Clarkston Senior High School, finding a large meeting place is also a difficult task. Through the year, however, many meetings were held in the gym. Pictured at a meeting during basketball season are from left to right, (Row 1): Pam Lovejoy, Cheryl Newbigging, Cindy Keller, Trudy Kobrak, Linda Hipp, Martha Torr, Sharon Barnett, Sue Gallivan, Kathy Bird, Lynn Ellsworth, Nancy Fulton, Mary Hinkley, and Caroline Richmond.

Found on the shelves are hundreds of books, magazines, catalogs, and pamphlets that aid students each day. To maintain the proper care and placement of this material, the Student Librarian organization was founded. Checking our books, keeping an accurate and up to date list of overdue books, and straightening up shelves of books for easy access by students are but a few of the duties performed by each during the day. Without their aid students would be unable to locate material, and the vast knowledge contained in each book would not be used to full capacity. Returning books to their proper places as they are returned is only one of many jobs for librarians Shelby Boyce, Sharon Ray-mer, Violet Jones, Linda Hoskinson, and Terry Powell. Checking in overdue library books is done here by Alice Berg, Tammy Affolder, Bev Denton, Jeanne Hagemeister, and Barbara Marsh. In the workshop and storage area Linda Haynes, Cherie With-erup, and Karen Wooley return magazines to their proper places while Sandy Powell and Mrs. Eleanor Thayer type and categorize new library cards. 59 A Reward of Opportunities for a Goal The backbone of the staff are Janet Tisch, editor; Mike Howey, assistant editor; and Joan Mansfield, business manager. These people lead the way to better understanding and cooperation among staff members, thus providing a more meaningful annual. Every page of yearbook copy must be accurate. But nevertheless, design and page layout are also important. Checking over a page layout before copy work is begun on it are Betty Cobb, Carole Richmond, Betty White, Kathy Bird, Lynn Ellsworth, and Cathy Richardson Deadlines, copy, pictures to be cropped — a weekly newspaper and annual yearbook must be produced by the publications staff. Tiring and accurate work is put into each page of yearbook copy and newspaper article. Everything must be proofread over and over again to insure the best quality of work from each staff member. Each member of the newspaper staff must be groomed in the proper usage of composition and methods of journalism. For with hundreds of students reading their publications weekly, perfection must be their ultimate goal. The members of the yearbook staff have a more lasting job; that Many hours are spent by our photographers, Pete Wilford and and Rick Warren taking athletic organization, and activity pictures which make the Hilltopper an exciting and informative yearbook. 60 of Perfection of producing an annual which will serve as a link with the past, providing an accurate record of a year in high school. What could be more satisfying than producing a book of wonderful memories to be enjoyed in future years. With standards of acceptance set high, the yearbook and newspaper staffs are able to qualify as ones of high quality. The experience each gains throughout the year in publications opens the door for future opportunities in the field of journalism, and lays the foundation for upcoming staffs. Publications is always a busy scene; each deadline must be met, and the next one begun. Linda Hipp, Karen Wooley, and Pam Lovejoy use reference books to write copy while Karen Bray and Hazel Biles proofread a page of the yearbook. Preparing a list of assignments for the next edition of the newspaper, The Wolf Cry, are Sue Munsee, assistant editor, and Marcie Fox, editor. Picture captions are always in demand, and most important to the Hilltopper staff is creating captions of interesting and accurate quality. Nancy Fulton, Tink Pedigo, Linda Hoskinson, Terry Powell, and Margaret Keech are writing captions for the organization part of the Hilltopper which includes all clubs and athletic organizations. � f 9 Keeping well informed about new equipment that is purchased for audio-visual purposes is one of the many responsibilities of Mr. Dave Couture, Audio-Visual sponsor, shown describing the proper procedure to use in showing a movie to, from left to right: Chuck Clements, Robert Adcock, Ward Robbins, Addison Hubbard, Chipper Caruso, Gerald Mercier, Jon Gary,Ken Miskin, and Dennis Aikin. Broadcasting In close relationship with the Communications Club is the Audio-Visual Aids organization. With their assistance, assembly programs, movies and lighting problems are made less difficult for the student body and faculty. A wide variety of movies is available for use in aiding teachers, from the causes of World War I to new Driver Training techniques. The knowledge each member has concerning the audio equipment paves the way for success in tomorrow’s fields of lighting, electronics or television. Having become a part of our everyday lives, the Communications Club offers students a new first in morning and afternoon announcements. Broadcasting local, state, and national news each day; with sports, fashions, and a final pun added for variety, the organization has spurred its members on. Interest became high in the club this year, as experience of the past was combined with new ideas of creating new and more informative newscasts. Not only did the club add to their broadcasting power, but to their deejaying” activities. New records were purchased regularly, monthly meetings were held to increase membership, and an all around improvement was made to meet demands for the future. Listening to a playback of a practice broadcast is one of the many ways in which Communications Club members improve broadcasting skills. Listening here are, from left to right: (Sitting): Kathy Bird, Sheila Goins. (Standing) (Row 2): Bobette Buehrig, Vicki Burley, Jacquie Leonard, Gaye Lynn, Bob Sawyer.

Homemakers To have a sincere interest in homemaking and the problems connected with it, is one invaluable qualification each member of the Future Homemakers organization must possess. Training in such activities as Achievement Days, bake sales, and the Homecoming tea offers each member the opportunity to gain valuable experience through actual participation. Such training as this enables each girl to become better acquainted with the problems and solutions of Future Homemakers. As members of the Future Homemakers each girl is interested in creating better methods of homemaking. With their sponsor, Mrs. Lois Thibault, each girl played an active part in planning the year’s activities. Shown here are, (Seated): Mrs. Lois Thibault, Margery McClard, Carol Storm, Edith McClard, Sue Hampshire, Rebecca Hubbard, and Joan Smith.

Mrs. Purslow, Principal of the Clarkston Elementary School, serves the Future Teachers as sponsor, and is shown here with Club officers going over plans for cadet teaching at the Elementary School. From left to right they are: Marlene Smith, President; Kris Smith, Treasurer; Mrs. Purslow; Carolyn Masters, Secretary; Diana Crites, Vice-President. One of the most active organizations at Clarkston High School is the Future Teachers Club, providing experience for members as they continue their study into the field of education. Throughout their busy and most rewarding year, they visited the elementary school rooms to observe teaching techniques and Cadet Teach. The members learned about the opportunities in teaching; to cultivate the qualities essential in a good teacher, to study the lives of great teachers, and to foster the development of student leadership. They also attended scheduled trips to college campuses throughout the State. The exacting need for teachers is increasing numerously with more and more teachers needed to instruct children of all ages. Through various stages of learning the Future Teachers Organization is meeting this challenge through the training of teachers for the future. Listening to tape recordings is one way in which Future Teachers arc able to cultivate a better understanding of various teaching methods. Found here in the library, these members are from left to right, seated: Betty White, Marcie Fox, Chuck Golden, and Marcia Booth. Standing are: Theresa Wooley, John Merkel, Virginia Galligan, and Sue Gallivan. 64 and Future Intellectual Abilities... The Medics Association has reached and maintained their goal of developing students' intellectual abilities through field trips to hospitals and guest speakers. Included also in their medical training is experience, obtained through aiding students in the art of nursing in our school clinic. The everlasting need for nurses grows more each year and the students of today will soon provide for this great demand. Students are able to discover and experience the wonderful feeling of serving humanity chrough such clubs similar to that of our Medics Organization. Their goal of developing students intellectual abilities in the medical field keeps medic club officers busy throughout the year planning various interesting field trips and lectures. Shown here are officers, from left to right, (seated): Joan Smith, President: Miss Corts, Club Sponsor; Gail Rowan, Secretary-Treasurer. The Clarkston High School Clinic provides a quiet refuge for students taken ill during the school day. First aid supplies provide for emergencies, which may demand immediate medical attention.

During the summer, the band’s main occupation was marching in three parades and putting on two concerts. More and more activities were undertaken as the year progressed and each member became aware of the responsibilities he had as a band participant. At four home football games, they participated in pre-game and half-time entertainment, displaying the marching talents developed through long hours of hard practice. At the end of September, the band attended the annual University of Michigan Band Day, in Ann Arbor. Joining in with school spirit, the band played at pep assemblies and basketball half-times.

Clarkston.... the Band Marches On gaiety of the Senior Choir’s annual Christmas program presented for the entertainment of the entire community. An All-Jazz Concert was the production of the Senior Band, as the end of the school year grew near. A new facet of the Honors Band was added this year where young members of the band were included in Honors Band activities. As they were introduced to a new and an astonishingly difficult musical world, these junior band members began to recognize all of the benefits and work involved in band activities. As another year of notes, instruments, ranks and files was completed; seniors left their places in the band to perhaps join another band on the road to musical perfection. Long hours of practice must go into the perfection of each routine before the majorettes can perform before the public. Cathy Verbeck, Larie Walter, Evonne Beni, Sue Allen and Beverly Pylman are going through a routine they will perform before a football game. Dave Pylman, Drum Major, leads the C.H.S. Senior Band through precision marching at parades, football pre-game activities, and half-time entertainment. On the football field he has control of all patterns of intricate movements the band follows in their presentation of half-time shows. 67 The Aspiring Musical Student of Today Accompanied by Mary Wert man on the piano, Pat Jordan, Jim Mansfield, Milton Longstaff, Jim Atkins, Frank Miller and Fred Yeager join their voices during a chorus class. • The aspiring musical student must have instilled within him the qualities of a good musician. Whether he be tenor, bass, alto or soprano, the part he plays in group harmony cannot be denied. If is for this reason that many activities are put on by the Senior Chorus each year. Beginning with the Christmas concert and continuing with league activities, girls and boys quartets, Spring concerts and a final presentation at graduation, chorus membership teaches cooperation and an awareness of music. Though the individual student is urged to achieve his highest musical ambition, it cannot be denied that group participation serves as a stepping stone to future musical associations and accomplishments. The annual Easter program presented by the Senior Chorus provides the public with inspirational and traditional melodies.

Through League Band, members of respective schools are given the opportunity to advance musically. Students from the Clarkston Senior Band were chosen as members of the League Band because of their excellence in the music field. Striving toward perfection, they joined with the other musicians to perform before the public in concerts throughout the busy year. Between concerts were numerous rehearsals required to mold students of varying backgrounds into musicians of a unified band. Annually the members of Senior Chorus are given the opportunity to participate in the Wayne-Oakland County League Choir. To qualify for such an honored position each member of the Senior Chorus was required to try-out. They were chosen according to their ability to sing a cappella and read music. The most qualified were given the privilege to participate in the four concerts presented by the All-League Choir. Singing with the most qualified vocalists of other league schools enabled Clarkston League advance toward musical achievements of tomorrow. A League Band Concert requires much practice and rehearsing. During a concert rehearsal, Clarkston League Band members go over one of the difficult spots in a selection. Kneeling are: Dale Hartman and Pat Jordan, Standing, Dave Dengate, Jon Studebaker, Fred Lissner, Carl Peters, John Knox, and Dennis Urick. Outstanding members of the Senior Chorus are chosen by Mr. Connors to represent Clarkston in the All-League Choir. Extensive practice was required on the part of all students who represented Clarkston during the 1962-1963 season. Seen here are League Chorus members, from left to right (Row 1): Joan Mansfield, Kathy Bird, Carol Walter, Carolyn Atkins, and Sue Dengate. (Row 2): Joanne Berry, Linda Hallman, Nancy Hancock and Donna Ferrand. (Row 3): J im. Mansfield, Don Milligan, Pat Jordan, Jim Atkins, and John Knox. 69 Tomorrow’s Gains Through Today’s Efforts... Through practice a person can become proficient at anything, but only by heartfelt practice can someone produce abilities that will carry him through a lifetime. Earnest effort, especially in the field of athletics, produces gains for the individual and the team. . .gains that are achievements not only for today, but for tomorrow. Finally, by means of these achievements, honors are bestowed upon the exceptional participants. They are to be valued, not for the glory, but for the effort it took to earn them. Such qualities as these are instilled by the athletic department in present day students to teach them the value of effort for future achievements. The value of effort for use in future athletic endeavors is taught to each athletic participant. Dick Moore and Bob Osgood talk seriously with Coach Mauti about the basic maneuvers of the basketball team in preparation for the forthcoming season. 71 Effort on the Practice Field Means Gains Basically, victory is a necessity for the production of a good team and while Clarkston conquered only one foe, the fact remained that the Wolves were more than a good squad. An array of experienced players, which were badly needed during the season, were left behind for participation in 1963 competition. Potentiality is not a factor of a good team, but rather what is left behind a departing squad, and this is what the 62 team left at the completion of the season. They gained respect from other teams in the league, always showing good sportsmanship on the field and in the locker room. Fans respected their never ending spirit, not surpassed by any other eleven men stepping onto the field. Most admirable of all, however, is the excitement which they gave through hard fought battles on the field. Such qualities as these are not left on the gridiron, but rather, they are carried into later life and competition among society. By straightening out mistakes before a game, a much more efficient football team comes onto the field. Coaches Kenyon and Jones go through such a procedure with, from left to right (row 1): Dave Coulter, Norm Olafsson, Cash Lewis, Richard Ditch, and John Knox, (row 2): Leonard Bullard, Randy Armstrong, Greg Fisher, Dave Hollis, Bill Bailey, Don Clement, and John Wilberg.

Although football comes naturally and without work for some, most people must work hard to reap their rewards. It is through this hard work and long practice that the Junior Varsity football team builds for the future. Good football teams are not built in a day, week, or month; but through years of organized practice. The J.V.’s are sometimes overlooked or pushed off as those not good enough to make varsity. They go through the same hours of practice that the varsity does, but usual- ly do not harvest the visual benefits. Their efforts are hidden under the glory of the varsity. But their work is not in vain for they mature in mind and body. The Junior Varsity’s 0-6 record would not tend to show much talent, but it was the first experience in playing organized football for many of them. They gained valuable experience and will provide the needed material for varsity teams in the following years. Final Statistics Yards Rushing Name Carries Kizer 54 Peters 32 Faust 32 Passing Att.

Clarkston's athletic department has found that by starting boys out easy and building them up, injuries are fewer and quality higher. So we use an introductory freshman intramural system as a beginning point. Thus the players who have less ability than is required, understand this at an early age; yet are not injured by another school's players, and those of ability can proceed further into the athletic world. Through the participation in intramural football, each boy is taught thoroughly the rules of the game and good sportsmanship. Teamwork and cooperation are among the basic qualities gained from each game. After completing the season, each boy realizes what will be expected of him in future years if he has the desire to progress into tomorrow's world of football. After school Mr. Mackson discusses the upcoming game with (kneeling) Rick St ude baker, Cordell Cox, (seated) Jerry Cornell, Greg Gordon, Stafford Cowles, Jerry Dark, King Robinson, Harle Ross, Monte Tur-vey, (standing) Don Wentz, Richard Amante, Danny Williams, George Bennis, Mike Golembeske, Tom Allen and Dan Fife.

There is nothing more encouraging to a team than hearing the praising shouts of the crowd. Cheerleaders cannot be topped in their devotion to the school and desire to be the best in their field. They attended a cheerleading camp at Hartland, Michigan for a week where time was spent learning with other cheerleaders new skills which would encourage spectator participation at all athletic events. Always striving for perfection through intensified practice the varsity cheerleaders are able to provide the school with the best means of school spirit. Spirit that spurs a team on to victory today for longer-lasting ones in the future. Varsity cheerleaders Carol Walter, Vicki Burley, Punky Golem-beskeand Bev Galligan, jump high in the air while completing the cheer of “Clap Fight during a game with Brighton. During the game with Holly, Varsity cheerleaders, Kathy Golembeske, Corinne Blackett, Carol Walter, and Bev Galligan lead the almost hysterical crowd through “Fight Team Fight . Varsity and Junior Varsity cheerleaders teamed up during the Homecoming game to insure better school spirit and backing for the team. Leading the crowd here as they did throughout the night are from left to right: Connie Buzzell, Corinne Blackett, Carol Sage, Punky Golembeske and Connie Papi. 79 Future Varsity Members Lead Cheers A few of the many qualifications a girl must meet before being chosen a Junior Varsity cheerleader are poise, co-ordination,sportsmanship and resourcefulness. Sheila Goins, manager, who helps to plan pep assembly skits and general practice routines goes over the plans for an awaiting pep assembly with J.V. Cheerleaders, kneeling: Connie Buzzell and Cricket Embrey. Standing: Robyn Rutzen, Kerry Sanford, Carol Sage and Connie Papi. While Junior Varsity Cheerleading is the first step in preparation for Varsity Cheerleading recognition, one cannot overlook the fact that they contribute greatly to the success of the Junior Varsity sports. Enthusiastic cheering at games, encouragement of spectator participation, and taking an active part in pep assemblies all combine to make the Junior Varsity cheerleaders respected for their tremendous spirit. Always behind the team, urging the players on to victory through exciting cheers has kept them busy throughout the year. One cannot deny the value of a cheerleader when preparation for varsity is as extensive as this. t I Agility to do many various cheers which are exciting and often difficult is required of each cheerleader. Carol Sage, Connie Papi, Connie Buzzell and Robyn Rutzen complete one cheer with the splits to the delight of the cheering crowd. Clap Fight” is a favorite cheer of spectators at most any game. At the game with Milford cheerleaders, Connie Buzzell, Connie Papi, Kerry Sanford and Cricket Embrey take advantage of a time-out to create enthusiasm among the spectators. 80 Looking Forward with anticipation... Taking time out from a hard practice to pose for this Bass, Ward Robbins (manager), Mike Bray, Rick Warren picture are: (Kneeling) Mr. Mauti; (Standing) left to right: (manager), Bob Osgood, Dick Moore, Mike Simonson, Larry Faust, Dan Craven, Jon Gary, Ken Miskin, Gary Larry Gardner, and Jack Lundy. 81 To A Long Hard Season Filled With Dan Craven skillfully sinks another shot to begin a Clarks-ton comeback against Bloomfield Hills, which was stopped short, 39 to 36. Clarkston s stern defense led here by Dick Moore was able to stop the Bloomfield Hills squad time and again. But the final results showed that the Barons had squeaked by 39 to 36. This scene repeated itself many times as Ken Miskin seemed to be always sinking baskets against Oxford, putting the Wolves ahead toward a 64-38 victory. 82 Gratifying Moments...Tournament Play.. Co-ordination on a basketball court is the only thing that makes a team successful, and teamwork is the only thing that produces successful co-ordination. Under the careful guidance of Coach Dorn Mauti, the Wolves practice teamwork until they had perfected co-ordination. Although they lacked height which is fast becoming a necessity for a winning team, the Wolves combined their abilities on court to produce a winning team. In their first year of Class A” competition, they defeated nine opponents while losing to seven-(three by less than four points). In a highly offensive league, Clarkston showed that defense is still an important factor they kept 8 opponents below the forty-five point mark. Junior Captain Dan Craven showed such outstanding abilities on the court that he was selected to the A11-Oakland County Class A squad, while Ken Miskin received an honorable mention. Without steady improvement the Wolves would not be able to proudly display the following records: Regular Season Clarkston 52 Northville 45 Clarkston 64 Oxford 38 Clarkston 37 Milford 42 Clarkston 48 West Bloomfield 50 Clarkston 59 Brighton 28 Clarkston 36 Bloomfield Hills 39 Clarkston 60 Holly 57 Clarkston 58 Clarenceville 39 Clarkston 43 Northville 58 Clarkston 52 Holly 50 Clarkston 52 Milford 42 Clarkston 42 West Bloomfield 58 Clarkston 44 Brighton 37 Clarkston 60 Bloomfield Hills 64 Clarkston 76 Oxford 51 Clarkston 60 Clarenceville 66 Accurate shooting can sink a ship or a basketball team. Bob Osgood demonstrates this by dumping another difficult outside jump shot leading CHS to a 76 to 51 victory over Oxford. Dan Craven watches intently as Ken Miskin shows Waterford with a two point lay-up, the style that helped the Wolves to another successful season. 83 District “A” Championship Dick Moore's long reach takes the ball from a Waterford-Ketter-ing player, giving Jon Gary a chance to continue Clarkston's drive to victory, 60-32. After taking the first MAM District Championship from Grand Blanc 62 to 51, Coach Mauti received a well-earned trophy from Mr. Mason. During tournament games the Clarkston fans realized that the Wolves were up to the feat, and were behind them every step of the way. When the Wolves had shown they had the best squad in the District, they went into the Regionals. Livonia-Bentley, a school twice Clarkston's size, was too tall for the Wolves to reach, and they lost 55-48. Yet all their fans knew that Clarkston will be in there next year again, ready to better their 12-8 record. Tournament Record Clarkston 71 Clarkston 60 Clarkston 62 Clarkston 48 Waterford Township 51 Waterford-Kettering 32 Grand Blanc 51 Livonia-Bentley 55 (District Champion) Sometimes a player making a difficult shot will spark the team on to victory. Dan Craven puts in two points in an almost impossible angle to start the Wolves on their winning way, 71 to 51, over Waterford. 84 Outstanding Season Soars 1964 Hopes Clarkston High's Junior Varsity basketball team brought many exciting moments to their fans throughout the season. By defeating nine opponents, losing to only seven (four by less than four points). Coach Vaara's squad showed it was worthy of any praises they gained As the season progressed it became evident that every victory was a team victory, and that all players were working their hardest every second while on the floor. During the season Jerry Haggitt led all scores with 126 points, and pulled down 125 rebounds. John Wilberg had 119 points, Bob McCarrick 117, and Dave Osgood pushed in 109. Behind Jerry Haggitt in the rebound volume was Bob McCarrick with 109 Dave Osgood with 84 and John Wilberg pulled in 83.

Basketball is a game that anyone can enjoy, but few can play it well. So that any serious freshman student can participate in an organized league, Clarkston formed an intramural system for the freshmen. By competing w'ith boys of equal experience these players were able to recognize what would be expected of them in the future. If they have the abilities necessary for good basketball, they will play on the Junior Varsity and Varsity squads. This seems to be the most logical and fairest way to assure Clarkston of good Varsity squads in the near future. Steve Barnett, of Mr. Hanson's squad proudly displays he is on a freshman team. Morris Hyatt, Mark Keelen, (standing): Paul Sanchez, Joe Szeremet, Rod Kline, and Paul Hoxsie, also show their class pride.

Rewards for Athletic Achievements. Bonded by a common interest in athletics, boys belonging to the Varsity Club serve as examples of excellence in athletic achievements. With standards set high for membership (earning of a Varsity letter) each member has something to offer, whether it be in the field of football, basketball, baseball, track, tennis, or cross-country. Each boy, identified by his varsity club jacket, is a leader in school sportsmanship and athletic understanding. He is honored by his teammates for his achievements and sense of fair play. Throughout the year the boys attend many professional athletic events including basketball and football games. They sponsor the sale of programs at games and also the printing of seasonal passes. Through their many hours of hard work both on the field and in the club, each boy instills within himself the qualities of good sportsmanship and fair play. Mike Simonson, Varsity Club President is seen here presenting the plans for printing of programs during football season with the club's sponsors and Vice-President.

Mike ran the course in ten minutes 40 and 9 10 seconds. Setting their yearly goal to be improvement-striving for victory-the Clarkston Cross Country team obtained satisfaction in completing a task to the best of their ability. The tiring moments spent by the harriers each week were well rewarded at the end of the season, for respect among other teams in the league was earned by each. Continuous practice, bodies in top physical condition, and a firm desire for self-improvement are only a few requirements every team member must meet—especially with cross country being the individual sport that it is. Although the season record showed only one win totaled against seven losses, they placed fifth in the Wayne-Oakland County League Meet and eleventh in the Clarenceville Invitational. While working together as a team for victory, but building within each individual stamina, the Cross Country team has brought to C.H.S. pride and respect both qualities which have been built through individual effort for the benefit of the school. Extensive practice after school was one of the factors which helped our cross country team improve steadily. Shown here in preparation for a coming meet with Coach Mel Vaara and Manager Jack Lundy are, from left to right, (Row 1): Bob Jenks, Bob Cobb, John Wooley, Bob Kriss, John Seaman, Bill Swayne, Mike Turek (Row 2): Richard Funk, John Jones, Ronnie Lip- pert, Frank Powell, Boyd Eisenlohr, and Bob McCarrick. 88 To Achieve A Common Goal-Victory! One cannot learn an art, rather he must learn its basics and practice those basics until he has perfected them into an art. Such could be an explanation of the sport, tennis. It is an art, and must be treated as one. Two years of extensive practice for a team cannot bring about a regional power, but it can do just as has been done at C.H.S.—bring about a team that the school can be proud of. Coach Ralph Kenyon formed from his 1961 squad one of the stronger potentials for the 1962 season; and even more important for the distant future. Steady improvement throughout the year came from practice to develop skills and never ending spirit for victory. When the Wayne-Oakland County League meet arrived, Clarkston had gained enough finesse to finish fifth in what proved to be the best all around assembly of performers in southeastern Michigan.

Encounters Which Demand the Best of Self determination and complete concentration power are absolute necessities for any golfer. In order to gain these qualities one must learn the skills involved with the sport. High School golfers establish their abilities through constant practice. Jim Jennings led the Clarkstonites throughout the season and earned the Most Valuable Player Award . Bob Heath advanced rapidly through the season earning the Most Improved Player distinction. Rick Wilson, Jerry Darling, and Jim McCormick aided C.H.S., and a respectable sixth place standing in the rugged Wayne-Oakland County League was finally obtained.

Being able to look at each situation as it confronted them and make a cjuick but accurate decision, is a quality that is instilled only through hard practice and constant drilling. Carrying their quick-thinking power with them through the entire baseball season the members added to their stature as a well-rounded team. Such attributes are not left behind on the field, but carried on to future encounters, even though they need not be ones of a purely athletic nature. Warming up before each game, Gary Pearson, Paul Walker, Johnny Williams, and Ron Zumbrunnen make sure their pitching effectiveness is at its peak.

He was to stay on his grandfather's estate, a rather broken-down ranch, and was utterly dismayed at its condition. After meeting a beautiful postmistress he conceived the idea of turning the place into a dude ranch. Complications came in the form of a jealous friend from New York and a western badman, who didn't like the idea of a dude ranch in his town. The whole audience enjoyed the rollicking antics of a New York taxi driver and his tag-along girlfriend. Everything ended well as the badman was carted off to jail and a playboy's dream came true — a girlfriend for every male at the ranch. J ake............... Danny Churchill . . . Louie..............

Excitement, Enchantment and Experience A combination of youthful voices into a barbershop quartet called the Extension Cords was an extremely talented presentation of a repetoire of songs, consisting of Mary Wertman, JeaneeSlinkard, Jane Hallman and Sandra Berry. The splendor and enchantment of a Mississippi Showboat was brought to life during the presentation of the 1963 Variety Show. The Robert E. Lee Showboat provided the background for three evenings of talent performance designed to provide recognition to talented students attending any of the Clark-ston Community Schools.

Showboat” was a Student Government undertaking, headed by Sheila Goins and Linda Hallman with Robert Mills as Faculty Advisor. It provided experience for the directors and others behind the scene contributors as to responsiblity and cooperation, qualities essential for leaders of tomorrow. All the proceeds from the Variety Show are used toward Scholarship Aid, a fund designed not only for college bound students but those students attending technical or business institutions as well. With the variety show designed to help so many students in such an admirable way, the success of it cannot be forgotten. The experience each participant gained has become a part of their lives, and will help mold them into the citizens who have built a tomorrow upon the foundations of today. The Northtop Players, Carol Walter, Carl Wilberg, Diana Crites and Gordon Mclnnes, kept the audience laughing hysterically with their original interpretation of West Side Story.’ no Were Provided by the “Robert E.

Wednesday April 17, to embark for Pennsylvania, where a tour of Gettysburg and the famous battle-grounds of the civil war era awaited them. The Diplomat Motor Hotel in Washington, D.C. hosted our seniors while Sholl’s Restaurants provided appetizing meals. On the many tours which were taken the Seniors saw the Capitol Building, The Congressional Library, Supreme Court, The Archives, The Wax Museum, Arlington National Cemetery (where they watched the changing of the guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier). They also visited the newly erected Ford Theatre, Mount Vernon, plus the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials. One afternoon was spent touring the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, while the Bureau of Engraving, Washington Monument and the Smithsonian Institute were toured with interest later the following day. Touring Washington by night, they viewed the Iwo Jima Memorial and Washington National Airport; both spectacles of modern day America. One of these enjoyable days in Washington was highlighted by a moonlight cruise down the Potomac. Students free time was spent shopping, sight seeing on their own, or just relaxing in the hotel pool. All had a wonderful time and as they arrived back at the school, ten o’clock Sunday morning, memories of the trip lingered on, never to be forgotten as part of a wonderful senior year. Chipper Caruso, Sue Allen, Mike Simonson, Jon Parrott, Barb Hagen and Mary Hinkley are seen leaving the school on their way to the buses which will take them to the Nation’s Capitol, Washington, D.C.

Community activities, as put on by the Student Government enable students to gain an insight on what each must face as he graduates and begins to play an active role in its progression. All combined, the many activities which are performed weekly or even annually, but sometimes forgotten, are all essential in molding youth into active and responsible citizens for tomorrow’s world. When the C.H.S. Faculty decided to up school spirit with their imitations of Varsity basketball players the student body responds enthusiastically. Mr. Mackson, here playing Mike Bray, performed hilarious antics before the student body. The Texas Cowgirls” versus the Clarkston Faculty” is one basketball game that will not be forgotten by C.H.S. students. The exhibition game was sponsored by the Varsity Club. Here Mr. Kenyon fails to block the attempt of one Cowgirl to shoot with Mr. Casteel, Mr. Neil-son and Mr. Jones looking on helplessly. 114 Concerts, Community Activities.

Striving for excellence in academic standings, students put forth an ultimate effort to accomplish their educational ends. Hours are spent at homework, work is carried on dutifully in the and PeifeCt-°n ?n u°°k f Pprts� research papers and extra credit com-b ne to improve and maintain their high standards of workmanship. Through the superior guidance of well trained teachers students are readily prepared for college study in ensuing years. The high quality of work the superior student does shols not only in his grades but in the high offices he holds and the honors which he receives as an outstanding student. All combined, his attributes will not be lost after graduation but will remain to carry him through years of higher learning and personal accomplishments. Marcia Booth, shown here with Physics instructor Mr. Hanson represents the superior stu ents. Shown with an apparatus concerning static electricity excellent students such as i arcia prove that academic achievements provide the ultimate in personal rewards. 117 Well Deserved Recognition Honored at MThe Temperature Effect on the Growth of Bacteria ' by sophomore, Marie Carlson was judged high enough to receive a medal in the Senior High Biology division. It has been the desire of Clarkston High School to provide recognition to its outstanding students in as many ways as possible. One of these is through the annually presented Achievement Days, through which students are able to present to the public an outstanding accomplishment in their individual fields of interests The Achievement Days production is open to all students in the Clarkston Community School system, whether they have talent in the science, art, home economics, industrial arts or literature fields. Each student is given the opportunity to participate and earn recognition for his individual efforts. The Science Division of the 1963 Achievement Days held fascination for students of Chemistry, Biology and Physics. The Biology laboratory was open after school to aid students in research and completion of their projects. Throughout the Achievement Day afternoon, Biology projects filled the room and made any visitor realize that work put in on each project was of no minor consequence. The Industrial Arts room was adorned with handsome woodworking projects and impressive metalworking exhibitions, while the Art exhibits in art demonstrated hard work in the fields of graphics, drawing, painting and leather-working. Though the Literature and Home Economics Divisions were not included in any award giving ceremonies, the work that Home Economic and Literature students put into their projects was enjoyed immensely by the visitors. During the afternoon, the Clarkston faculty operated a small snack bar, designed to raise added funds for the Student Aid program. Money which was collected will be used to aid students planning on any form of higher education, whether it be college, business institutions or other forms of trade schools. Recognition for top honors taken at the Achievement Days was given to the outstanding students at an all-student assembly. It was felt that publically awarding medals and the Grand Prize Trophy would provide the greatest deserved recognition to these students of today and encourage them to continue their success in the world of tomorrow. Carl Peters was awarded a medal for his project on Two Childhood Diseases , on which he researched Leukemia and Rheumatic fever. 118 the ‘63’ Achievement Days.... George Durci and John Stiller each won a $5.00 cash award for their projects in Woodworking and Metal working, respectively, in the Achievement Day Industrial Arts Division.

High School life used to be purely a matter of maintaining a high grade point average during the day and sleeping at night. Today the emphasis on social life appears more distinct, and is considered an essential for any student. It is true that a person with no social activities will find the world outside of high school difficult to face but the necessary drive for good grades still linger. For with good grades come honor, and they normally indicate success in the world of tomorrow. Upon graduation all types of honors are heaped upon the individual for social gains, but still the greatest credit one can gain is that of high scoring on report cards. Graduating with high honors, Magna Cum Laude, is Carol Srock, shown here in the library. She represents the senior class as achieveing the highest grade point average over a four year period. Marcia Booth, seen here in the library, in recognition for her outstanding academic achievements was selected to be one of the senior honor students, and graduated Magna Cum Laude. 121 Accomplishments in Academic Studies - Who's Who for the Junior Class is Jon Gary.

After each students scholastic record has been checked for a B or better average, prospective students are then judged on the qualities of leadership citizenship, cooperation, dependability, school attendance, emofional stability, tolerance, sportsmanship, good personal appearance, manners, punctuality, and respect for others. Throughout his high school years, Gordon Mclnnes has earned the honor of Who’s Who through his service to the school and academic abilities. Explaining Einstein’s Theory of Relativity proves Gordon's fine scholastic ability. He has participated in Football and Track as well as both Junior and Senior Plays. Gordon is vice-president of the National Honor Society and was vice-president of the class during his Junior year. Students who have been selected in the past to represent their respective classes as Who’s Who recipients are seen here in the commons area posing for a picture. From left to right they are; Robyn Rutzen, Joan Mansfield, Dan Craven, Cathy DeLorge, Lynn Ellsworth and Janet Tisch. Not pictured, Nancy Stanquits. Rewarded by Highest Recognition Citizenship is something which cannot be taught, cannot be learned, but is inherent in all of us, and brought to life in many. Little reward, other than self-satisfaction, is reaped by the individual for always maintaining this, the most important of all human traits. The D.A.R. believes that citizenship should be rewarded materially as well as mentally, thus annually a Clarkston student is presented a coveted award. Marcia Booth, this year’s recipient, was felt to have the qualities most desirous and necessary in our future citizens. Annually, a senior girl becomes the recipient of the Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow Award.” Any senior girl, whether she has participated in a Homemaking class or not, is eligible to take the one hour test, which tests knowledge concerning family problems, cooking, sewing and budget planning. Concluding the test is an essay, which tests the girls’ ability to communicate ideas concerning a Homemaking problem. Excellence in musical achievement is awarded annually to an outstanding band participant. The length of time a student has participated in band and his abilities developed during this time are considered along with time spent in Honors Band and League Band. Gary Haiser and Sandy Powell were the recipients of the 1963 Band award. Both have been members of the C.H.S. Honors Band; Gary, a League Band member for three years and Sandy, Band Librarian and Secretary for two years. Marcia Booth, the recipient of the D.A.R. award, discusses with Mr. Mason the qualifications which determined her honor for the State D.A.R. contest and a possible scholarship. These included her high grade point average and continued service to the school the past four years. The Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow’ award was awarded to Edith McClard. Her homemaking abilities, developed through Home Economics classes and Future Homemakers Association of which she was President, were major factors in the awarding of the honor to her. 123 Supporting Today’s Youth Hi Vi,Ua °'ClarksT StaTds as a marker f°' U students attending Clarkston High School.

It has been no different in presenting the 1963 Hilltopper to you. For the many hours she spent on designing the cover for the '63 Hilltopper, we wish to thank Lynn Ellsworth; Pete Wilford and Rick Warren are most deserving of our thanks for the pictures they took as are Powell Studios for the hundreds of pictures they have taken and developed; the office staff and Mr. Mason receive our deepest gratitude for the help they gave in proof-reading; and the faculty, for the last minute details and information they gladly provided us. But most of all, we wish to thank the merchants and businessmen that have supported us financially throughout the year. Without their help we could not be presenting to you the students, faculty and community, the 1963 Hilltopper. 137 For Your Convenience A Abbott, Ken..39.53, 89 Adana, Steve..28 Adcock, Robert..29,62 Addia, Daniel..22,86 Adkins, Barbara..22 Adkins, Jim..28 Advance Floor Decorators ..134 Affolder, Tammie..39,59 Aikin, Dennis..29,62 Aikin, Jacqueline..23 Alexander, Cynthia..23, 51, S8 Alger Hardware..133 Allen, Dorothy..23, 65 Allen, Mrs. Dottie..l9 Allen, Harold..29 Allen, John..30 Allen, Mary..23 Allen.

I cannot help bu. feel saddened at this tine. bu. aatiaf.ed that once again C.larkston students will have a yearbook. 1. is at thia t.mc I personally with to thank W . Law-r� e Burnette for the time and patience she has devoted to the Hiiltopper. I can truthfully aay that I doubt if any other yearbook sponsor has been so dedicated to her work and ao well liked and admired by those who woek under her. The staff which ha« been working with me undoubt-edl [ fc U “ C‘C, d ' 1 concerning the coeaplet.oo of the book. Throughout the year we all have worked togerher foe one common goal: That of presenting to Clarfcaton the best Hiiltopper they have ever had. I only hope tlyat the 1964 Editor will find as much eatoymeat and personal satisfaction in the Editorship as I have the past two years. Nothing is more satisfying than capturing the wonderful moments of a school year through pictures and writing and then giving it to evetyone so they might remember those moments, also.
