A VOICE FROM BEYOND CALLS AND HE DEPARTS I hear a voice you cannot hear Which says I must not stay I see a hand you cannot see Which beckons me away ---------------Thomas Tickell Death, the silent, endless sleep of life calls from us the ones we dearly love; and in the passing of Mr. Gordon Eoff it came close to the lives of the faculty, students, and school board. Yet, to die is not to be forgotten, and this thoughtful person, who served so dilligently on the school board, will live in the hearts and minds of all who knew him. MR. GORDON EOFF Pago 6 SUPERINTENDENT AND PRINCIPAL LEAD SCHOOL FORWARD This is an exciting year for the superin- tendent and the principal as they watch the new buildings take shape and plan for the changes which will occur in the future of Clinton High School. Mr. Pate received his B. S. E. degree from Arkansas State Teachers and his M. A. degree from the University of Arkansas. He taught at Searcy before coming to Clinton in 1955 as Grade School Principal. After holding this position for six years, he became Superintendent in 1961. MR. BILLY RAY PATE Mr. Barnes received his B. S. E. and his M. S. Ed. degrees from Arkansas State Teach- ers College. He taught at Center Ridge before coming to Clinton in 1954. In addition to his duties as Principal, he is co-sponsor of the Beta Club and is presently serving on the State Beta Club Council. MR. CURTIS BARNES MATH AND SCIENCE ARE EMPHASIZED During no time in our history has there been a greater demand for people highly trained in the functions and skills of basic and advanced mathe- matics and science. Through the rapid develop- ment of science in recent years, a shortage of qualified mathematicians has resulted. Although each individual aspires to different and varied goals, all educated persons should have a function- al knowledge of basic mathematics and science. A knowledge of the sciences provides a foundation for much of our progress, and thus, success. At Clinton, a functional math curriculum is of- fered. From general math to trigonometry, five math courses are available. General math provides an excellent sounding board in mathematics. Ab- stract thinking, through the use of symbols, imagi - nary numbers, quadratics, and progressions stimu- lates and develops the ability of logical reasoning. At Clinton, students may elect to take three major laboratory sciences. These are biology, chemistry, and physics. The study of science can prove interesting to anyone and rewarding to those who master it. LANGUAGE STUDY ENRICHES LIFE MRS. MAXINE BARNES B. S. E. A. S. T. C. A mastery of the English language is a prerequisite for success in every major field of endeavor, in Clinton, four years of English are required for the diploma. Students.in language classes are increasing their vocabu- laries, mastering spelling, learning to communicate in both written and oral form with correctness, creativeness, and skill, and becoming familiar with many of the classics of Literature. After a background of grade school and freshman, English, the Sophomore may open his mind to spelling, sentence con- struction, poetry, or the study of Julius Caesar. The Junior English class may be studying sentence diagram- ing or another technique used in teaching the mechanics of the English language. In the final year of English study, one may write themes, analyze books, or simply construct intelligent sentences. These English classes prepare us to be pleasant, successful, and informed individuals by putting in our hand the tool on which our success and happiness will someday depend - the knowledge of the English language. HOME ECONOMICS BUILDS MRS. BETTY PATE B. S. E. A. S. T. C. FUTURE HOMES Home Economics deserves a definite place in mo- dern education since worthy home membership is of basic importance in life. Although home ec. empha- sizes the importance of good home and family life for all, it also fosters the development of individual, cre- ative leadership and the organizing of recreation. Girls not only learn the basic mechanics of home- making, but how to make the best of all possible op- portunities by application of interior decoration, in- spired by imagination and needs, child care, home nursing, entertaining in the home, and maintaining a cheerful, friendly atmosphere in the home. Learning by experience is the method used in this course. Thus, the ability to sew is developed through the making of garments for personal use. The garments are made during class periods under the supervision of the instructor. AGRICULTURE TEACHES VALUABLE SKILLS Almost every boy in Clinton High School enrolls for at least one of the three courses of agriculture offered. These courses include both shop work and farm projects. Courses in agriculture are very useful to every boy regardless of whether he plans to pursue this as a pro- fession or not. A broad general knowledge is obtained from study of the different units in agriculture and many useful skills are learned in shop work. The work-experience method is also applied in this department on a large scale. The boys produce useful items in the shop under the guidance of their instructor. The agriculture department also assists the school in such projects as roofing the buildings and building book- shelves. They also help the other departments on the campus by constructing various items for them. Page 10 WORLD HISTORY AIDS UNDERSTANDING NIKS. MAI HOLLOWAY B. A.. M. A. Harding College World history from ancient to modern is offered as an elective course here. This subject is also correlated with current events to help students to understand the workings of world government. Enthusiastic discussions centered a- round current events are stimulated in this class, which indicates the real interest of some students in the class. Analyzing social, political, and economic problems stimulates the processes of clear reasoning and prepares students for the future in which they will undoubtedly en- counter exasperating problems. World history also provides a sound background for the introduction to American and English literature, because these subjects contain historical facts. AMERICAN HISTORY FOCUSES ON THE UNITED STATES From the earliest colonizations of this country to the recent world wars and current problems, this subject is studied in great detail. American history is required by the state laws of Arkansas for graduation, because it forms a basis for understanding the current challenges and pro- blems that are facing our nation. Also included in this study are an analysis of the Con- stitution of the United States, one major research theme, and a seminar on Latin America. The use of charts, maps, ieports and current events discussions, enable students to better understand them- selves and the ever changing world about them. The study of American history certainly helps students to become well-informed, alert Americans. Page 11 MUSIC ENRICHES CURRICULUM MR. MARSHALL TAYLOR B. A. Long Beach State P. E. DEVELOPS PHYSICAL FITNESS The physical education program includes organiz- ed teams such as basketball and football and also a program for students not participating in these sports. A well-rounded physical education program is very important because our country is dependent up7 on its young people growing into physically fit and responsible adults. One of the greatest improvements of the physical education program in many years is the construction of a new gymnasium which was completed this year. The community now has a better place to attend athletic games and accomodate the visiting teams which come here. Clinton can be proud of the representation of its athletic teams in the past and of the good sportsman- ship shown by both teams and spectators. Clinton High School offers a music program gear- ed to fit any student's particular talent, whether it be vocal or instrumental. Every student has an op- portunity to participate in the music program if a willingness to work is shown. The band represents the school at parades, festi- vals, and individually at clinics. They also perform at all home football games and occasionally make out-of-town football trips. The glee club appears in school assemblies and presents to the student body programs of both sacred and secular music. Band activities are climaxed each year by a trip to the State band festival at Hot Springs, where tile band presents three numbers to be judged by very competent judges that offer suggestions to improve the band. Page 12 BUSINESS DEPARTMENT EMPHASIZES COMMERCIAL SKILLS The high school business department trains stud- ents in those phases of business which concern every member of organized society . Although everyone has a different life goal, all citizens need to understand and appreciate the im- portance of business procedures, and to have a fun- damental knowledge of business agencies, services, methods, practices, principles and organizations. Whether tending a house or presiding over the busi- ness meeting of a merged corporation, whether sell- ing newspapers on a two block route or engaging in international trading, everyone has a business life. Since each person does some buying or selling, everyone is concerned with the economics problems of his school, state, nation, and world. The business department in classes in typing, bookkeeping, and shorthand prepares many students to perform with confidence the routines of the busi- ness world. One very excellent product of Clinton's commer- cial department is Mrs. Barbara Dempsey, who grad- uated from this school and is now serving as a very efficient school secretary. MRS. BARBARA DEMPSEY C. S. V. T. S. LIBRARY AND STUDY HALL PROVIDE STUDY AREA For seven periods a day, the senior high study hall provides a quiet study area where students may work on research projects and everyday homework assign- ments. Each study ha41 is under the supervision of one of the teachers, and as all students will agree, this study time is one of the most vital parts of the school day. After completing the rigorous daily assignments, many students use die library provided for them ad- joining the study hall. There they can check out books, or use the research materials, or read cur- rent magazines or newspapers. The many ency- clopedias and reference books of other types are in frequent use by students writing research papers or simply trying to learn a few facts about subjects they find interesting.

Morton, is the main governing body of Clinton High School. Its purposes are to lead forward in the promotion of school spirit, to support the faculty, and to encourage and sponsor school projects. Council sponsored assemblies are much enjoyed by all students. Each year one of the regular duties of the council is to set up an assembly sched- ule including every club and organization on the campus. The programs, displaying the varied talents of Clinton students, arouse interest, stir up excitement, and sometimes, bring much hearty laughter. On the after- noons of athletic events, the school auditorium is filled with excited students eager for victory.

Membership therein designates the student as worthy of special recognition. This year's club, under the guidance of its sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Curtis Barnes, and officers, carried on one of the most active programs of any club on the campus. The Beta Book Drive conducted in Decem- ber, added over seven hundred volumes to the student library. In an assembly, the Betas brought to the audience the many splendid exam- ples of talent exhibited by members of the student body.

TORCH STAFF Leah Bradford, editor, and assistant editors, Marolyn Penrod and Gary Tumlison discuss plans for the 64 yearbook. The staff feels very fortunate in secur- ing Arkansas' own Miss America, Donna Axum of El Dorado, as judge of the '64 Torch Beauty contest. She judged the contest from 5x7 glossy prints of the candidates and then mailed them back to the editor along with a personal letter stating how much she enjoyed judging the contest. Leah Bradford edited the '64 Torch” and Miss Elizabeth Winningham very ably sponsored it. LEAH BRADFORD Editor Leah Bradford and Marolyn Penrod attended a summer yearbook workshop at ASTC. Here they are discussing '64 plans with Prof. C. J. Medlin, workshop director. Staff members, Billy Shipp, Tammy Stobaugh, Mary McEntire, and James Isom offer suggestions for this year's Torch to the editors. Discussing layouts in a staff meeting are Judy Shetley, Judye Bradford, Suzy Coffman, Paul Knight, Wayne Johnson, and Jim Burnett. FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA The F. H. A. at Clinton under the guidance of its sponsor, Mrs. Betty Pate, promotes appreciation of homemaking, encourages development of creat- ive initiative, and furthers interest in home econo- mics, Membership is open to any girl who studies one course of home economics for one year. The emblem of the organization is a red and white octagon with the name of the organization above the top of the plane, and the motto on the lower side. The motto, Toward New Horizons expresses tire purpose of living better in order that family life of the future may be improved. In the center of the emblem is a house supported by two hands, symbolizing the fact that youth of to- day will control the homes of tomorrow. Through F. H. A. activities, girls learn to face the future world with courage and high hope. Officers Row Is I Vice-Pres. M. Penrod; II Vice-Pres. D. Taylor; Pres. T. Stobaugh; III Vice-Pres. K.

A. has more members than any other organization on the campus, and therefore it has a major role in the part it plays in campus life. TAMMY STOBAUGH President Clinton F. H. A. was the largest chapter attending the annual Fall Federation meeting at Arkansas State Teachers College. 1 FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA Officers: Bill Eoff, James Dawson, Jim Linn, Bill Scott, Kenny Wjiillock. FFA members believe in the future of farming with better days through better ways, just as the better things we now enjoy came to us through former struggles. They believe that farm life is pleasant as well as challenging; for they hold a fondness for those associa- tions that, even in hours of discouragement, they cannot deny. They believe in leadership from themselves and res- pect from others. They believe in their own ability to think clearly and work efficiently with the knowledge and skill that they possess. They believe that rural America can and will hold true to the best traditions in our national life and that they can exert an influence in their home and comm- unity that will stand solid for their part in that task. The local FFA chapter on this campus has the ex- pert guidance of Mr. W. H. Morton as sponsor. BILL EOFF President Shown here are part of the local FFA's eighty members. Almost every freshman boy becomes a member of FFA adding greatly to die membership number.

STUDENT LIBRARIANS LEARN LIBRARY PROCEDURES Library Club members, under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Winning- ham, learn many useful things about how a library is run. Two student librarians work in the library during each of the seven per- iods that it is open every day. They assist students in finding books, check out books, and help in keeping the library neat and in order. They proved especially helpful in the processing of nearly seven hundred books, that were donated to the library from the book drive. Linda Finton and Sue Bonds check out a book for Jane Martin.

GLEE CLUB MEMBERS SING WITH ENTHUSIASM The Girls’ Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Marshall Taylor, meets one period each day to re- hearse various numbers to perform. Glee Club is open to any student in school who has a desire to sing and prospective members are tried out only to determine in which section that they will be able to sing best. In the past the Glee Club has sung for several churches in town, for school assemblies. P. T. A. meetings, and has also made tours to other schools in this vicinity to present programs.

T. A. meetings. In the past they have also made tours to other schools in this area to present concerts. They represent the school every year at the State Band Festival in Hot Springs. Individual members have also been awarded many first-place medals for soloes and ensembles at the Festival. This year they were well-represented at the Region III Band Clinic by three top-notch performers, John Arnhart, Q. D. Ledbetter, and Danny Brackin. For a school of its size, the band program at Clinton could be con- sidered exceptional, particularly since the members compete at the clinics in what is considered one of the most difficult districts in-the State.

MARCHING BAND PERFORMS IN PARADES AND PRESENTS FOOTBALL SHOWS The Yellowjacket marching band, under the field direction of Marolyn Penrod, drum majorette, appears annually in the fair parades at Clinton, and also in the fair parade and Strawberry Festival parade at the neighboring town of Marshall. It is led by a majorette line consisting of: Judy Williams, Clara Hink, Judye Bradford, and Leah Bradford. The Band appears at two out-of-town football games every season and at all home games. This year they presented two precision drills, featuring majorette routines, at home games. Appearances of this sort require many hours of drill and pract- ice. The band as a whole adds much color to parades, and pro- vides entertainment, while stirring enthusiasm at football games. MAROLYN PENROD Drum Majorette Page 47 Miss Leah Bradford BAND SWEETHEART SENIOR SERVES AS SWEETHEART Each year the band rewards one of its hard working and attractive girls by selecting her Band Sweetheart. This year the band selected Leah Bradford for this honor. Leah is a majorette and plays solo clarinet for the band. In addition, Leah has served as librarian and vice-president of the band and has three times attended the regional band clinics. Any organization must have an alert leader to function properly. This year the majorettes were indeed fortunate to have as their sponsor, Mrs. Patricia Smith. MRS. PATRICIA SMITH The majorettes from left to right are: Leah Bradford, Judy Williams, Marty Penrod, drum majorette; Clara Hink, and Judye Jan Bradford. 1964 TORCH BEAUTY Page 50 Judged by DONNA AXUM MISS AMERICA 1964 MISS BILLIE WOODELL First Runner-up Miss Suzy Coffman Page 51 Miss Deborah Taylor Senior HOMECOMING MAIDS Donna Bonds Senior Honor Maid Sunny Simpson Junior Billie Woodell Junior Patsy Bonds Sophomore Pag© 53 Deloris Newland Sophomore FFA SWEETHEART AND FHA BEAU Jean Betenbough Bill Scott Suzy Coffman Junior Page 54 ARKANSAS BOYS’ AND GIRLS’ STATE Girls' State and Boys' State are training programs to educate the youth of today in the duties, privileges, rights, and responsibilities of American citizenship. Each year Clinton is proud to have four students in the senior class participate in this program. Sponsored by the Lions Club and the B. and P.YV.
