Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1964 volume:

Accused slayer of President Kennedy, Lee Oswald, was shot fatally before national TV audience. Right: Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy, Caroline and John, Jr. leave Washington for Christmas in Florida. in Review—1963 With the assassination of John F. Kennedy of Massachusetts, youngest president in U.S. history, the country lost a highly-regarded and remarkably capable statesman and administrator. President DeGaulle of France, saluting, stands with German Chancellor Erhard, right, and President Lubke, as some heads of state gathered in tribute to the late President Kennedy. President Kennedy, and soon-to-be-retired, Ger- man Chancellor Adenauer met in Bonn during Kennedy’s successful ten-day tour of Western Europe. President Kennedy and then Vice-President Johnson (second from right) met with leaders of the August “March on Wash- ington” dramatizing the nation's leading domestic issue in 1963. Major Gordon Cooper received the Distinguished Service Medal from President Kennedy at the White House in May, following Cooper's 22 orbit flight and manually controlled re-entry.

The ship has weathered every rack, The prize we sought is won, The port is near, the bells I hear, The people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, The vessel grim and daring; But O heart! Heart! Heart! O the bleeding drops of red, Where on the deck My Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead. O Captain! My Captain! Rise up and hear the bells; Rise up--for your the flag is flung, For you the bugle trills, For you bouquets and ribboned wreaths For you they call, the swaying mass, Their eager faces turning; Hear Captain! Dear Father! This arm beneath your head! It is some dream that on the deck You've fallen cold and dead. My Captain does not answer, His lips are pale and still, My father does not feel my arm, He has no pulse nor will, The ship is anchored safe and sound, Its voyage closed and done, From fearful trip the victor ship Comes in with object won; Exalt O shores, and ring O bells! But I with mournful tread, Walk the deck My Captain lies, Fallen cold and dead. Walt Whitman WORDS THE PRESIDENT SPOKE . . . A man does what he must, in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures . . . and that is the basis of all human morality. Ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country. We in this country, in this generation, are--by destiny rather than choice--the watchmen on the walls of world freedom. We ask therefore that we may be worthy of our power and responsibility--that we may exercise our strength with wisdom and restraint--and that we may achieve in our time and for all time the ancient vision of 'peace on earth, good will toward men.' That must always be our goal-- and the righteousness of our cause must always underlie our strength. Or, as was written long ago: 'Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.' (Concluding words from the speech prepared for Dallas, but never delivered.) 4 “THE NEW FRONTIER” 5 We Are Taught ... by an experienced and capable staff of educators whose devotion to their profession benefits the student body of Glen Lake High. . . .

Gilbert Lodge was the setting for the event, with the popular veranda over- looking beautiful Long Lake. The evening was made especially lively by the delightful music of the Twi- lighters', and when departure time came, everyone was sorry to see the memorable evening end. Jill Dechow and Jim Richardson (top left) give a smile of appreciation to the orchestra. Linus Laskey and Helen Mikowski (below) pause to chat with Mrs. Baldwin about their color photos that Mr. Baldwin had taken at the Prom. 25 fW or Poetes 26 'Killer “We . . .

Betty Welch, Presi- dent, Diana Rowell, Vice President, and Bev Mazurek, Secretary-Treasurer, did a fine job of keeping the PEP CLUB very well organized and there were a number of money making projects that were successful, also. All of the members of the PEP CLUB are to be commended for the wonderful job they did in supporting our basketball team and for encouraging more school spirit. The students of Glen Lake enjoyed many fine dances that proved to be the highlight of the evening after the basketball games. These dances were sponsored by the Var- sity Club. 29 WE DID IT A GAIN! This is the group of winners that took honors at Glen Lake High School. Ray Brzezinski took first place in the Senior Division, Linus Laskey, second, and Harry Norconk, third. Ed Waslawski took first place in competition in the Junior Division. Thanks to the never ceasing efforts of Mr. Bolton, Science in- structor at Glen Lake High School, the Science Fair proved to be an- other huge success. In Traverse City competition, Ed Waslawski won the Medic Award and Harry Norconk received an honorable mention. 30 In this picture Mr. Bolton and Linus Laskey discuss the trip that Linus will enjoy this summer, and in the back- ground is the project for which Linus won the Navy Cruise. Linus also won an Air Force Award and the Nassau Aerospace Power Award. Here Jim Flees poses for a picture with his project which is entitled, The Determination of the Velocity of Sound. At Traverse City also, Linus Laskey won the Navy Cruise, Jim Flees won the Electricity Award, and Ray Brzezinski won the Air Force Award.

The theme, that a student body con- sists of individual personalities, has been pre- sented through a new format and unusual pic- tures. Looking for new ideas chairman Deanna Craven and Junior Ed. Ann Marie Mikowski check in other yearbooks. Here, Bob Faulman the Business Editor is pleasantly surprised with the arrival of the pay- ment of a large ad. 50 Karen Novak, Sharon Richardson, and Ac- tivities Editor, Beverly Mazurek discuss and point out new ideas for the activities section.

At the end of the 1963 football season, the Lakers ended up with no wins and seven losses. The Lakers had the expert guidance of Coach Thomas, but just couldn't get the ball rolling. Football is one of the few games in which a team can display superior power and still lose the game. With plenty of lettermen coming back next year, the Lakers should have a pretty good team. 60 Football (BACK ROW) Coach John Charles Thomas, Charles Shimek, Richard Plowman, Mike Sullivan, Jeff Fisher, Chuck Payment, Ray Warnes.
