I Alone we achieved the completion of a term paper, the notification of college acceptance, scholarships for further education, passing of a geometry test, and the satisfaction of finalK getting the capitals in proportion to the lower case letters. Mastering the ability to make a buttonhole, confidence in speaking before a crow d. the reaching of our 50 words a minute goal in typing and the development of our talents in music, helped broaden our skills for future use. We gained pride ith the acquisition of our driver s license, a first place in the regional science fair, and the earning of the title silK-silK sophomore. Through personal effort, we experienced a sense of fulfillment from the pleasing aroma of our o n baking, and the eventual learning of all the amendments to the United States Constitution. With these and other accomplishments, we prepared ourselves for the challenge of the times to be encountered in the new decade.

Through sports we achieved the fulfillment of winning a cross-country ribbon, tying the butterfly record, getting a hole-in-one, or returning a good serve. We experienced the satisfaction of knowing our team played its best in the face of defeat as well as victory. Whether through team cooperation, individual effort, or spectator involvement we were all encouraged by the roar of an enthusiastic crowd, the receiving of a long pass, the slamming of a home run, and the setting of a long jump record. Along with the victories came the disappointment of slipping on wet grass, fouling out, fumbling the ball, being pinned, or striking out. Through the entire ear all of us gave support to the activities of the Athletic Department of Clay High School.
