From the balcony, Mr. Lockey gets an overall view of the construction of the new gym. Mr. Lockey, Principal, contemplates the prospects of the facilities of the new addition. Changing . . . growing . . . becom¬ ing better. All changes, though minute in their beginnings, result in an overwhelming rush of success. The completion of the new building, like the fulfillment of a dream, high¬ lighted the school year. Much of the success of ’73 is attributed to Clark’s fine administration. The Board of School Trustees continued its plans as the renovation of the old building progressed. A tremendous and never-ending amount of the true Pioneer spirit was exhibited throughout the year by the school Principal, Mr. Lockey. His cheerfulness and enthusiasm were reflected, as always, through his pride and devotion to Clark. More than proud of the new addi¬ tion, Mr. Lockey acknowledged this as an important phase of his career.

Clark schedules seven-period day Scheduling a seven-period day and issuing computerized report cards brought on many technical diffi¬ culties for the Guidance Depart¬ ment. Nevertheless, the counselors found time to confer with individual students concerning future plans best suited to their desires and abili¬ ties. Supervising the Guidance De¬ partment and sponsoring National Honor Society were assignments for Mr. Corder. Miss Myers directed the seniors through their last year, while Mr. Welch and Mr. Guiden com¬ bined to take care of the freshmen, along with their regular loads of ju¬ niors and sophomores. The responsibility of minimizing disciplinary problems was assumed by the new Dean of Students, Mr. Thomas. Assistant Principal Mr. Es- terhay often found himself occupied in planning faculty and activity schedules, along with securing the services of substitute teachers. Speaking at Freshman Orientation, Mr. Paul Guiden plays his roll as Freshman and Soph¬ omore Counselor of two years. Mr. Arnold Corder. Supervisor of Guidance Department, also sponsors National Honor Society. He has been at Clark for over 20 years. People 161
