N EW ROADS AHEAD With the termination of four happy years of high school, the members of the 1940 senior class of George Rogers Clark are about to embark upon new studies and new careers. Wherever they may be and whatever they may be doing, however, they will always have with them memories of their high school days. They will be able to look back upon days full of fun and entertainment, and days of learning and experience. Among our seniors we find representatives in all the different phases of school life. Athletics, debate, and band have all been boosted by their efforts. In more ways than one our 1940 seniors have repeatedly proved their worth. i Leading the list of outstanding seniors are those eighteen students who were elected to the National Honor Society. As otlieers of this club we find Bill White, president, Betty Olcksik, vice-president, and Barbara Bercaw, secretary-treasurer. Scholastically Millicent Evan, as valedietorian, and Dick Jones, as salutatorian, led the seniors. The Student Council, the student governing body of Clark, has seventeen seniors among its members. Mike Valiska, one of these seniors, is president of the organization. Page Twelre SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS From lol: fo Imflom Imff: Cecelia Huspek, vice-president, Bill Wliite, president, Evelyn Eddy, secretary. Rmb!! .loc Dubeck, treasurer, Mr. Mullins, class sponsor. In the field of sports, eleven senior boys made the football team. Sheldon Gayle, as captain of the squad, led the boys through many a hard fought game. With Mike Valiska as leader, the basketball team, ten of whom were seniors, gained many well-earned laurels. Nine 'seniors were active in track, with Frank Shimala as captain, four were on the tennis team, led by Seymour Kaplan, two participated in wrest- ling, and four were in cross country, with john Becich as captain. Mae Marie Wruberg acted as president of G. A. C. Thirteen students of the senior class are members of the band, which won the right to compete in the national contest for high school bands. Among the soloists, who competed in the national contest were: Lucille Christie, Kathryn Eggers, Bob Schlatter, and Don james. Herbie Klemm, another senior, was elected president of the band. In journalism two senior girls led their respective staffs: Margaret Stockdale, editor of the Powder Hornng and Cecelia Huspek, editor of the Pioneer News. Seniors were active in Girl Reserves and Hi-Y. Bradford Conley was president of the latter organization. Evelyn Isberg and Bill White, are members of the debate team. Bill, who won more points in the Na- tional Forensic League than any other student in the history of Clark, also gained the right to partici- pate in the zone Rotary Contest. Betty Oleksik, likewise gained honors by winning the right to par- ticipate in the city American Legion Contest. And so we find that the 1940 seniors of Clark have taken part in almost every organization in our high school. They have added glories to the school and have supported it in every possible way.
