Text from Pages 1 - 164 of the 1965 volume:

HILLTOPPER CLARKSTON HIGH SCHOOL 6595 MIDDLE LAKE ROAD CLARKSTON, MICHIGAN THF. LESSON 0 F THE OAK Within the wood are many trees And some are big and tall With branches swaying in the breeze, But one looks down on all; It did not reach those heights sublime With hut a single stroke . . . It took long years of steady climb To form the lofty oak. That one small acorn in the ground Could rise up strong and grand Until it was a monarch crowned Is hard to understand; It did not sleep within the soil Until great strength awoke, But years of patient faithful toil Brought out the sturdy oak, ’Tis true the little leaves we see, Which on their lofty height Add grace and beauty to the tree May burst out overnight; But they are bom for one brief day, -4s fir turns to smoke They flourish, fade and pass away Before the mighty oak. The leafy branch is not the mark By which we fudge the length. Nor is it just the outside bark Which gives the oak tree strength; We cannot measure real success By grace or outward cloak ... It takes long years of faithfulness To grow a stalwart oak. C.A.

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. 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. 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. 9 a soiling of the strongest is aUoays the best ” K Coping with the never-ending responsibilities facing the day-to-day worthy principal Mr. Milford Mas highschool schedule is our capable and c stantlykept on the go as C.H.S. Assistant Principal. Also head of the athletic Department, Mr. Mauti is 10 Our reward is not in the classroom, but in their future. Throughout four years of High School a student often needs someone to advise him. Someone who is equipped to help him with his problems concerning a carreer, a choice of a college, next year s schedule or even bis personal problems. Who does he turn too? Our Counselors! Students know that the doors of Mrs. Hanson and Mr. Thomas are never shut to them. Day after day they are there, ready to help students with any problem that will arise. We truly owe them a sincere vote of thanks for their constant dedication and understanding for us. Mrs. Hanson, girTs counselors, has helped many girls in time of need. 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. 11 Aiding the counselors with secretarial work are: (left to right) Jodie Strothers, Linda Quertermouse, Sandy Yingling, Gale Getzan, Bev Pike and Cindy Alexander. Helping the Counselor's with their work of helping and guiding the students were six girls known as the Counselor's Secretaries . These girls devoted one hour each day to typing up forms, running errands and just generally helping our Counselors. Helping Mrs. Allen and Mrs. Weston with their daily office duties are: Linda Bord-korb, Gloria Bridges, Cricket Embrey, Louise Sexton, Jeanne McFarland, Donna Davis, Nina Brewer and Sue Hampshire. % 12 The combined efforts of our two office secretaries, Dorothy Allen and Gwen Weston, went together to make this year successful. Day after day they worked co-ordinating the school procedures to make an efficient faculty and well-informed student body. Aiding four hours a week, six students gave up their spare time to work in the office. During this year they all worked toward making a school which we and others may look up to. Preparing report cards is only one of the tasks of Airs. Allen as an office secretary. 13 William Adams Chemistry Leading us through our serious years.

During the years of our elementary and junior high schooling our teachers have helped our parents to form the character and morals which we carry with us throughout our lives. But - in the high school years a student will turn more and more to someone besides his parents for advice and counsel. It is during these times that the high school teacher becomes not just a person who teaches us the basics of English and French, Business Math or Algebra, but someone who is always willing to listen to the problems plans and ideas of his student. This is why every high school student begins to show respect to his teachers for other reasons than the threat of a whipping when he is bad. Yet, not only respect but also a special kind of love and devotion for this person who has always been willing to spend some extra time with him is felt by each student for a special teacher who has taken an interest in them. It is with this love and devotion that we dedicate this section of our yearbook to those people who always make our memories from this portion of our lives worth remembering.

Out bus drivers are faced with a hard job, transporting sixty, yelling, restless students to and from school everyday, safely. At times it is quite difficult, because of weather, mechanical, or student problems. But, consistently they bring, unload and take home, the students from school. For this reason the bus drivers deserve much recognition. Taking time out of their busy schedule to pose for a picture are our bus drivers: Sara Boggs, Eloise Beach, Marilyn Cauld. Norma Anne Ross, Doris Sunquist, Florence Blimpka, Leone McDonald, Helen Orr, Rose DeVar, Hazel Armstrong, Betty Prevo, Mary Russell, Elva Birch-ett, Lucille McDonald, Elaine Jones, Dorothy Samson, Audrey Pethers, Harris Pine, Raymond Cooper, Gladys Bates, Pauline Roy,Janet T rarop. 22 Always working night and day, to keep our school clean and attractive, are our custodians. They spend all their time working, to make our halls and classrooms, spotless. Ready, to help at any time, cleaning up after a game, or prepar-ing for a dance, they perform little tasks that we are thankful for, besides their regular duties. Everybody likes to point with pride to a clean and beautiful school. With the halls now empty, Sherman Lowery finds work a little easier. Frank Green helps during the day with Orville Nelsey, Ronald Clement and Frank Stouter assisting on night duty. Serving students over the same familiar counters are: Mrs. Morgan. Bon-nie Locklar, Nedda Sartell, Eleanor Verheck, Lee Funk, Margaret Syn-der and Larell Verheck. The Cafeteria Staff is a very important part of our school. They plan, prepare, and cook meals and then, serve them to the faculty and student body. Day after day the preparation of our hot lunches are left up to them. With the aid of the government and at a low cost, they are able to prepare a well-balanced meal for the students every day. Each one of the staff deserves a big hand for the great job that they have done. 23 mmm All are architects of Fate, Working in these walls of time; Some with massive deeds and great, Some with ornaments of rhyme. Nothing is useless is, or low; Each thing in its place is best, And what seems but idle show Strengthens and supports the rest. The structure that we raise, Time is with materials filled, Our todays and yesterdays Are the blocks with which we build. Truly shape and fashion these; Leave no yawning gaps between; Think not, because no man sees, Such things will remain unseen. Let us do our work as well, Both the unseen and the seen; Make the house, where Cod may dwell, Beautiful, entire, and clean. Else our lives are incomplete, Standing in these walls of Time, Broken stairways where the feet Stumble as they seek to climb. Build today, then, strong and sure With a firm and ample base; And ascending and secure Shall tomorrow find its place. This alone can we attain To those turrets, where the eye Sees the world as one vast plain And one boundless reach of sky. - H. W. Longfellow 25 From a little spark may burst a mighty flame, Understanding is the acceptance of another human being into your home, into your life, and into your heart. This opportunity is afforded a family through the Youth for Understanding exchange program. Students are familiarized with the American way of life with a learn by doing” technique and the expectation of responsibility. A teen-age exchange program allows us to interpret other countries and their people, which improves international relatixjnships. Clarkston welcomed Inger Ljung as a representative of her. native country, Sweden. 4s a result of Inger1 s stay in America, her thoughts and attitudes have changed concerning her own country as well as the United States. Inger received a most heart-warming welcome to Clarkston High School. 26 Exploring our Library with Mr. Thomas to aid her, Inger finds she may learn a lot about America in this one little room. Inger discovers that America even has sewing machines in Clarks ton s Home Economics room. Leaving after another day in Clarkston s hallowed halls Inger goes to meet her friends. Inger Lhung, who came from Sweden, tries to explain her customs to Mr. Thomas with the aid of an encyclopedia. 27 The coming years bring many advantages with them: Senior class officers are Don Stageman. Treasurer; Paul Hinkley. Vice-Pres.; Mr. McCrath, sponsor; David Coulter, President; Carol Cinader, Point Secretary; Cynthia Humphrey, Secretary; Mr. Dennis, sponsor. ,fThe coming years bring many ad- vantages with them: retiring they take away many.

On this stalwart oak there are branches which extend beyond all others. Our National Honor Society is a representative of the finest in scholarship and citizenship. These superior students rate being considered outstanding on our tree. Each year, the Juniors who have maintained a 3.8 average or above are sworn in. They carry on the work of the organization until the first semester of their Senior year. At this time, those students who have the personal qualifications of leadership and scholarship and a 3.3 average, arc accepted as members. During the second semester of their Senior year, the eligible students who have a B average are given the pledge of membership. The doors are open to the gates of knowledge, and through these doors the National Honor Society will enter. Cynthia Humphrey was this year s recipient of the DAR award.

A class is a tree; a tree of knowledge, growing in stature and wisdom with each passing day. Her roots are planted firmly and deeply in the solid foundation of a school, encompassed by loyalty and dedication. Her stem is straight and tall, bearing easily the heavy weight of her branches. The stem, mainstream of life, carries the students toward the well balanced branches of musical, scholastic and physical endeavor. Here, in the branches burst forth the seeds of talent, maturity and guidance toward a future. Here the blossoms of achievement and understanding are bom to embellish the world with their grace and beauty.

With our newly acquired dignity, we blossomed and became the leaders of and the participants in, many organizations. Student Government representatives, class officers, club members, athletes, and cheerleaders all endeavored to make their Sophomore year successful.

Vie look hack on the events outstanding in our minds. Class elections, new club memberships, and the Fresh- man dance. Homecoming festivities captivated our minds for weeks. Strange faces developed into lasting friendships. Clarkston was a whirlwind of activities! But many of us do not realize now that our Freshman year presented us with more than a glamorous social life. Education played the strongest and most important role to every member of our class. V e gained knowledge from classroom studies, and also, began our academic climb to maturity and responsibility. Each achieved exper-ience essential to our individual growth. This year was only, however, the beginning of our high school career. In our future years at Clarkston. we will continue to strive, arriving finally at our goals. 74 John Aulgur Charles Ayres Donna Banks Kim Beattie Leslie Bell Sandra Bell Sue Bennett George Bilkovsky Dick B indig Louise Birchett Thomas Black Milt Blevins Carl Blehm Roger Boal Catherine Boesl Charles Boggs Cathy Boyd Charlene Bradley Clifford Bradley Jim Bradley Omer Brewer Michale Bridge Frances Broadway Hugh Brockman Kay Brooks Bill Bullard Tom Bullard Doug Burnett Toni Cagle Cathy Callen Janet Casper Kerry Caverly Louis Champeau Dale Chandanais Nancy Chapman Greg Chartier Donna Childress James Choate Edward Cohoon 75 We were in a new world, Duretta Conley Mary Ann Coma do Bill Covarrubias Steve Crabtree Roger Crum Susan Davis Roger Deaton Paula Deneen Karen Dengate Brian DiPietro Kathi Donohoe Jack Dougherty Danny Eaglen Patricia Edgerton Andrea Eisenhardt Theresa Eldred Scott Emhrey Mark Erickson Jeannette Erkfritz Penelope Evely Shirley Famer Mike Feamow Mary Fellows Melvin Fender Caroline Ferguson Bill Ferree Barbara Ferris Jeff Fisher Bruce Flanagan Steve Foster Penny Fox Lucy Franco Wanda Frankenfield David Franklin Joe Fredericks Adela Freeman John Freeman Walter Gallegly Lee Gallivan Shirley Garreu Saralou Garrison Albert Gecit Allan Girvin Dorothy Giantzer Phyllis Goodall Terry Gougeon Thoman Gougeon Alan Green Larry Green Sharon Green Cheryl Gura Bog Haggiatt Fred Hall Louis Hall 76 but we soon became a part in it Gary Hancock Janice Hanson Gary Haremza Donna Hams Nancy Harvey Connie Hawkins Debbie Head Larry Hefferman Jill Henderson Patricia Hennig Nanci Henry Charles Hi His Donna Hipsher Ray Hipsher Diane Hockin Delores Hodd Dorothy Hood Andrew Houck Bri an Hoxsie Bill Hubbard Shirley Hubbara Mike Hugh son Delana Junt Lawrence B.

After weeks of practice the senior girls met the junior girls in a game of touch football. The team practice under the lights, followed by a snake dance and bonfire, added to the mounting excitement. The Homecoming dance, Some Enchanted Evening, added the perfect climax to a week of exciting activity. Homecoming Queen, Connie Pa pi, is crowned by the out-going Queen, Corinne Blackett, at the halftime ceremonies. The Junior Float Lindarella majestically carrying the Junior Maid Linda Bennett, was the prize- winner. The cast returns to the stage (or a curtain call, and a tremendous hand of applause.

Jeannie Carroll ....Joan Carroll Howard Carroll ..Agnes Carroll .Ginger Carroll .............Liz ....Tommy Green ...Eddie Davis .. .. Ed Hoffman .....Mr. Wilson Time Out for Ginger, an amusing comedy staged under the skillfull guidance of Miss Jane Sikkila, kept the audience in laughter the entire evening. The Junior class worked hard and long on their first production. The story revolves around the antics of a fourteen year old girl who insists that it is her right as an individual to play varsity football. The plot thickens when Mr. Caro IV s job is threatened, Ginger loses her boyfriend, and complete chaos takes over the entire Caroll household. After much confusion the Caroll family re-organized, much to the relieve of the audience. Mr. Wilson tells Ginger’s father, Mr. Caroll. that she is disgracing the name of the school, by playing football. 92 You might say that ”My Fair Lady” was the first successful musical that Clarkston has put on for the public because it was the first musical that Clarkston has produced. And under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Moore thirty-five talented members of the cast made it very successful. Aly Fair Lady cast in- vites the student body to the play as they present a scene to the lunch hours. 93 Entertainment for all. The teen-age section of the audience enjoyed the sounds of the Majesties and kept hoping for more. A dramatic scene in The Bee’s Knees came when John Slade and Andy Ros-sano gave a scene from Inherit the Wind. 94 Another successful talent show has past. We remember the fright in the eyes of many and the confidence in the eyes of others. Beatnick costumes and props created a lasting image in our minds. We recall the folk songs, the speeches, the comedy skits, and the instrumentation performed by the cast. The audience of adults, teen-agers, and children projected the excitement and laughter throughout the program. We recollect the effort of the countless number of people who made the show a success. The rembrance of The Bee’s Knees is hard for a few, but the impression is still in the minds of many. Another selection of folk songs was done by Dave Sutton and Jane Hallman. 95 Organizations “Nothing like To learn the responsibilities of citizenship, to build reliable young men, and to better personal standards are the purposes of Hi-Y.

At the beginning of each new school year, students who are interested in becoming a member give a speech to their English and Government classes. A vote is then taken and the winners become representatives. Throughout the school year Student Government sponsors many activities. During the Homecoming festivities, the annual dance is sponsored by the Student Government. Later in the school year they sponsored the Talent Show, where the proceedings go to the Student Aid Fund. For the second consecutive year Student Government has sponsored a Foreign Exchange student, Miss Inger Ljung. Through the efforts of Student Government, the link between the students of C.H.S. and the administration has continued to grow.

Future Teachers of America is an organization that has served many C. H.S. students throughout the years. Lectures, cadet teaching, and aid from several teachers help students decide whether or not their future lies in teaching. When a student is in his second year of F.T.A., or if he is a Senior member, he becomes eligible for cadet teacher training at the Clarks ton Elementary School. Many hours of valuable experience and observance are gained through cadet teaching one or two days a week. F.T.A. visits a college in Michigan every spring to give the members a taste of college life. They also hold bake sales and other money making projects. Qualities of character, scholarship and leadership are part of being a F. T.A. member.

In an age where conformity seems to be the mode, art becomes one of the few remaining out-lets for the creative mind. Through the Art Club, under the direction of Mrs. Campbell, self expression is encouraged and becomes evident in painting, drawing, sculpture and metal work. Students work tirelessly to reveal that spark of individuality which is found in every• one. The new fallen snow scene is a picturesque model for Art Club members. The C.H.S. debate team did an outstanding job during the 1964-65 season debating the question: resolved: That nuclear weapons should be controlled by an international organization. Debate A common practice in our society is to express ouropinions, or ideas on given topics. Before a person is able to do so with any authority, he must have the background necessary. The debate team offers to any student the opportunity to state his views on certain subjects to the public. More goes into the speech then the words alone. Selected material for every possible source, a careful study of notes, the ability of effective speech, and the genuine desire to express oneself are necessary before an efficacious debate can result. This year the CHS debate team did an outstanding job debating the question: Resolved: that nuclear weapons should be controlled by an international organization. 110 Broadcasting Communications Club active members are: Carol Storm, Sue Hampshire, Jacquie Leonard.

Although the quantity of the band and chorus is increasing, the quality remains the same. Many perfected voices and talented musicians have originated from our musical courses. While everyone is standing for the National Anthem the Band must keep working. Playing for a school assembly is one of the few tasks of the High School band. Majorettes for this year were: Cathy Verbeck. Vicki Fife and Bev Pylman. 115 Sue Munsee, Mr. John Gorrie, and Sue Powell discuss layouts for the annual. Writing copy and taking pictures are just a few of the many tasks performed by the Publications staff. Each year they enthusiastically work to recreate the events and memories of the closing year. The entire staff devotes many tiring hours trying to meet the deadlines, for on their shoulders lies the great responsibility of keeping the school well informed. These efforts are all contributed to the publishing of the 65 Hilltopper and the editing of the Wolf Cry. Memories of the happiness, sadness, humor, and the glory of the passing school year are all captured by our cameras.

While the giant oak trees regained their color in the early days of Spring, the Wolves track team started their season. At the close of this hard fought season, the Wolves confronted a 9 wins, 15 losses record. Although these may appear to he rather discouraging figures, they were-n t. S any good things came from within the spirit of our team. Five new school records were set by Mark Seath, Dennis Sommers, Mike Turek and the team of Billy Swayne, Mike Madison, Mike Turek and Rick Blimka. The 1964 track season turned out many fine trackmen and the most valuable of them proved to be Mark Seath. Mike Turek and Rick Blemka shared the honors of ,rmost improved runners. Although these boys stood out in their areas, many other promising athletes developed as a result of their team efforts, strong spirit and unbeatable sportsmanship. With a combination like that, the Wolves will win again. Bottom: Mr. McGrath. Mike Turek. Mark Seath. (Left to Right) Boh Grey, Rick Blimpka. Varsity Baseball Baseball, like any other sport, is the man rather than the game. The record developed by a high school nine is secondary to the character that an individual develops. Clarkston's squad tied Bloomfield Hills for the league championship by earning a 10-4 record; but even more important than the outstanding ability of the team, is their display of sportsmanship and cooperation. Coach Thompson's nine showed all of this throughout the season. Behind Ken Miskins .373 average, the pitching of Gary Pearson and johnny Williams (5 wins, 2 losses each), and a complete effort in every game, Clarkston gained the respect of the entire league both on and off the field. At the end of the season the team members left the field not only with an admirable record; but also with a newly developed concept of spirit and sportsmanship.

To be able to gain honor as a baseball player, a boy must first start with J.V. Baseball. This gives them a chance to compete with other schools, work as a team, and learn the fundamentals of a good ball team. This year the team showed with combined, as well as, individual efforts that some are ready to receive higher honors by playing on Varsity Baseball. 123 Tennis - the action sport Paul Hinkely displays a powerful backhand. To play a sport well, a person must have not only sportsmanship, the individual desire to win, and physical accuracies, but also team spirit. For only when a group of boys is co-ordinated into one, as a team can they win. Coach Thihault Tennis squad deserves praise for the team spirit displayed and their commendable record of 8 wins and 15 loses.

A player cannot be considered complete unless he has developed to the full his potential talent and has proven he can take both winning and losing with equal stature. Playing with the high costs of graduation affecting key positions Clarkston’s athletes nevertheless put on an extreme effort in every game played. Often going into a contest knowing that they were a team possessing little experience and much potentiality, they clashed helmet to helmet with some of the strongest squads ever produced by the W ayne-Oakland County Leauge. Fans were always able to sense the Wolves' neverending spirit which prevailed over any other squads they faced, and they respected Coach Kenyon's entire squad for this. Every boy who stepped onto the field realized that he had given an absolute effort and knew that after the game he could hold his head in pride. The team’s most valuable player, John Wilberg, and the most improved player, Paul Hoxsie, both shared the honors of being on the all league team. 4s a team the Wolves could be called complete — as every player developed his potential to the utmost and even in loss the Wolves were able to look with pride at their attempts. ’Things that have a Dan Jenks scores a touchdown as Rick Blimpka runs to his aid.

Football To become successful in sports one must not only have a certain amount of talent; but he must also have the proper training to bring this talent to light. Freshman football provides the opportunity for this important training. It begins to develop talent, build character, instill good sportsmanship and give experience to our future Varsity grid stars. By competing in an intramural program, the Frosh teams got the chance to learn the meaning of competitive sports. This year three teams were organized among the Freshman; and as a result of a season of excitement, victory and defeat, the coaches felt that next year's J.V. team would acquire a great deal of this newly developed talent. 1st row - Ron Sanchez, Ray Chenoweth, Carry Keener, Tim Bond, Brian Woodworth, John Mac Gregor, Brian Gallipo, Danny Wilson, Roger Erickson, Mike Schweitzer, Gary Stelmach. 2nd row -Mr. Macks on, George King, Joe Deneen, Richard Bass, George Lekas, Larie Walter, Jack Hancock, In man's many endeavors he has extracted great knowledge from books. There has never been a book, though, which can teach a man talent and skill. That is something which comes through training, practice and performance. This generalization applies to many phases of todays life, and included within this realm we may speak of football. The J.V. team this year proved that they were ready to take their place in Varsity competition next year. When the final gun sounded, they left the field with a 3,4 record. They did not, however, take with them just a list of scores; they also took an invaluable amount of experience. Due to an abundance of cooperation and the desire for perfection, you can expect to see many of these boys as the stars of next year's Wolves.

Coach Bud McGrath brought out the best in his boys as he helped them earn a second place standing in the WOCL. The competition this year was keen, but the Wolves once again displayed some fine talent expecially in the person of the team s most valuable player Dan Fife. Captain Ron Lippert was the receiver of the most improved player while the honor of the Dorn Mauti Award went to Gary Pearson. A successful ball club, such as the Wolves, is not dependent upon individual performances as much as it is on the cooperative efforts of an entire team. Our team worked well together and with the passing of each game the spirit and enthusiasm of the players and fans grew. When the tournaments began you could feel the excitement in the air. After we defeated Grand Blanc in the district play offs, our season came to an end when Waterford Kettering defeated us in the most exciting and heartbreaking game of the year. 135 From basket to score board. From the experience gained through J. V. Basketball emerges Clarkston’s top notch Varsity players. Though the record of wins and losses may not be the best something more important is achieved through the playing of J.V. sports. That is the lesson of sportsmanship. A quality which is necessary in the playing of any sport at any age. Also with every J.V. game a boy plays he is gaining the experience necessary if he is to play Varsity well. Clarkston’s J. V. Basketball team may not have placed at the top but each boy learned the on the team lesson of sportsmanship and gained the experience necessary to help them through the year's of sports ahead.

In a sport such as basketball, it is difficult to achieve a recognized position unless you have first accomplished the task of learning the sport before doing the sport. You will find that every instance of success was preceded by hard work and many hours of practice. To help boys get the required skills for basketball a program was set up so that Freshmen could learn the fundamentals of the sport. They were given a foundation upon which they themselves must choose to build ability, diligence, and achievement. Mr. Nowak, Mr. Kenyon, Mr. Hanson and Mr. Gorrie took the time to teach these boys some of the basics of the game. They helped develop some talent that will undoubtedly appear in Cl arks ton's headlines in a short time. 137 We will fight and we will win! 138 139 With sanctity of reason, Varsity Cheerleaders Carol Sage, Donna Davis, Darlene Craven, Robyn Rutzen, Connie Pa pi and Joanne Kriss are shown with manager Bobette Buehrig.
