Miscellaneous Activities Farewell............... 3 Foreword This edition of the Sycamore Log, DIMENSIONS, 1964, reaches out to include among its pages the development and progress of the world centered around Sycamore High School. This theme was chosen for the 1964 Log because it contains the idea of a universe, expanding and enfolding not only the greatest, but also the overlooked. A dimension extends to the unimaginable depth, breadth, and height the mind is able to measure. The scope grows as this mind is exposed to the greater importance of surrounding universes. It develops more angles and broadens every phase of the commonplace routine of school. So, Sycamore High School has taken a stronger look at its inner mecha- nism and the area bordering it in 1964. This year gave to Sycamore citizens an untried bell schedule which began at 7:45 a.m. and ended at 2:58 p.m. This new system made each of the seven class periods fifty-five minutes long. The newly functioning Sycamore Junior High School, with its caf- etorium, provided the high school with an ideal area for its growing interest in plays. A language laboratory, which aids the French and Spanish students to conquer better their chosen foreign language, was installed into one of Sycamore’s rooms. Sycamore put on a new face when the bushes lin- ing the semicircle drive were removed, and new shrubs planted. The fieldhousc acquired a challenging isometric bar and basket rebounder to assist the basketball team this year. As the world grows, so does the Sycamore teaching staff and their families. New teachers filled vacated rooms; the marriages of Mr. Henke and Miss Weber, Miss Shubirg, Mr. Taylor, Miss Kcesling, Miss Ham, Mr. Bohmer, and Mr. Thomas added excitement to the year; and additions to families—Cheryl Lynn to the Henkes, Jeanne Karen to the Wagners, and Rob- ert to the Morgans further heightened anticipation. New awards such as the Alberta Sherritt Award and the Big Mike Scholarship gave students more and better goals to work toward. The Blue Ash Branch of the Cincinnati Public Li- brary was opened. An expressway threatened the sports activity of Sycamore by taking eighteen acres from the school property until the Bond Issue was passed. This Bond Issue provided for a new audi- torium, a new football field and track, and new rooms to be added to the Blue Ash Elementary School after the original building was torn down. E=7nc2 5 1 November 22, 1963 President Kennedy speaks to a crowd at Government Square during a visit to Cincinnati. All who were cognizant of the dreadful happenings of that terrible week-end will never forget them. Whether one favored President Kennedy's policies and actions or not, the President was his President, and a personal loss was felt at the time of his death. President Kennedy will never be forgotten; his mem- ory will be cherished and revered. He gave American politics a new life, a new dignity, and deserved respect. He has left his mark: it is more than name-changes and memorials. The Peace Corps, the Tax Bill, and the Civil Rights Bill were all fostered by President Kennedy. They will serve his memory well. 6 Seniors Gary Daniels, Carol Mund, Tom Graler, Bonnie Oppcn, and Mariellen Marklcy relax during a spring day in front of school. Bond Issue to Change Dimensions of School Mike Itschner, Paul Savage, Melinda Hartlieb, and Bob Schlosser chat on the front lawn of the school. Freshmen Donna Garrett and Bud Bagenstose pause to talk in front of the new trophy case. In the upper right corner is the new Booster’s Award plaque. The passage of an $800,000 Bond Issue is the largest contributor to the changes that will be coming to Sycamore High. A new auditorium with a capacity of 800 will be built behind the main building (left). It will have a foyer that will con- nect the Field House and the Auditorium. Ade- quate facilities will be available in the auditorium for plays, concerts, Senior Assemblies, etc. Included in the Bond Issue is the addition of classrooms at the Blue Ash school. A swelling student body will also cause Syca- more’s dimensions to change rapidly. As more stu- dents enroll at Sycamore, the school is becoming noted for the accomplishments of the students. These clever fans keep out of the rain at the Homecoming game. The rain made the win no less satisfactory to the spectators, however. Moms and Dads are both proud and anxious as they watch their sons play. Spectators and Teams Enjoy Athletics Included in the Bond Issue is the relo- cating and building of a new football stadium. This change is especially neces- sary because Sycamore High School lost eighteen acres to the expressway. Around the football field will be an all-weather track. Made of a synthetic material, it is long lasting and low on upkeep costs. These improvements will greatly increase the dimensions of athletics at Sycamore— which, as shown in these pictures, are so very important. Football and basketball provide the greatest interest (or spectators at Sycamore, but Other sports, such as C.r« ss Country Track (below), offer a source of individual achievement. g t fi- dmjr: —. ' !•'! it, PUBLIC LIBRARY Students stand patiently in line waiting for lunch. A split lunch schedule was used for the first time to alleviate con- gestion in the cafeteria. The Office of the Board of Education is visited by many people each weekday. Four curious Sycamore students look at the new library, located just a few doors west of the school, while work is still being done. The library opened in June. School, Faculty, Toni Hensley, Bev Jones, and Vickie Wainscott prepare a committee report in the Student Council room. The use of a separate room was new to the council this year. Community Grow Growth of both Sycamore Township and Syca- more High School is indicated on these pages. The new Sycamore Branch of the public library was welcomed by all residents of the area. The language lab (right) is used by the Span- ish and French classes. The changes of our faculty and our facilities well illustrate that Sycamore High School is mak- ing strides forward in all phases of high school life. Mr. Paccy, Mrs. Simons, and Mr. Taylor, all new teachers at Sycamore this year, enjoy the warm spring sunshine and ad- mire one of the flowering trees in front of the school. New shrubbery was donated by Garden Clubs of the area. As the Henkes and the Wagners enjoy an evening together. John Wagner also wants to get acquainted with Cheryl Henke. Mrs. Wagner holds the new addition to their fam- ily. Jeanne Karen. Faculty Takes on New Look The faculty is obviously a vital part of our school system. The Syc- amore faculty has, like the student body, expanded rapidly. This year has been an active one for our faculty. Children joined the Morgan, Henke, and Wagner fam- ilies. Building homes in the area are the Fred Emersons, the David Kouns, and the Nick Marinaros. Before school started, the Henkes were married. During the year Miss Keesling became Mrs. Emerick; the new girls’ gym teacher became Mrs. Simons one week after joining our faculty; Miss Ham married Mr. Wold in April. The engagements of Mr. Bohmer and Mr. Thomas were also announced this year. Above, the Emerson family works to finish their new home on Arcturus Drive. At right. Mr. and Mrs. Henke perform their first official act as a married couple. 14 sycamore cur school district Kathy Blair leads «he SPEECH CLASS in a lively deha.e while Sandy S.epp, Lynda Brans- come, and Judy Lamb await their turns.

Knowledge Expands Mike Rudolf and Roland Dorth combine wits to solve a sheet metal problem in ENGINEERING DRAWING. March 6 and 7 a Science Fair with exhibits from science students in grades four to twelve was organized at Maplcdalc Elementary’ School. The purpose of this fair was to generate public and student interest in science. Recognition was given to those projects which the judges felt were origi- nal and worthy. Approximately seven hundred and fifty adults toured the rows of projects. “Project: Honoring the Science Scholar” was held on February 21 and 22 at Columbus, Ohio. Mr. Dugan, accompanied by three students, spent these two days in lectures emphasizing space and engineering. Randy Sheaff conducts an experiment with sound waves, while Tom Graler and John Gregg prepare for the next experiment in PHYSICS. Through Science A graph combining two algebraic equations is put on the board by Ken Koehler in ALGEBRA CLASS. Gerry Johnson and Linda Geldrich await cither the explosion or success of their CHEMISTRY experiment. As the PLANE GEOMETRY CLASS directs its attention to the board, Charlene Miller explains a solution.

Mrs. Bennett s first year LATIN CLASS relives a day from the cultural past. roman court CRIME ROMAN’S DAY FRENCH II students seem intent while conversing with their teacher. In the past few years advanced courses have been added to the three foreign languages at Syca- more. These additional years encourage students to perfect their study of the elective languages. The language laboratory, installed this year, is used by the French and Spanish classes, while Latin, a non-spoken language, is not able to take advantage of the new equipment. The main controls are stationed at a large desk and maneuvered by the teacher. He can listen to any one of the thirty booths and can play five les- sons at the same time. The student controls con- sist of a knob for the volume to their microphones and one for the volume of the ear phones. Mike Hilgeman seems intent in his extra credit reading for SOCIAL STUDIES CLASS. Charles Gruber points out on the globe the locations of important events in his WORLD HISTORY CLASS. Mr. Kouns lectures to his AMERICAN HISTORY CLASS on his favorite subject—the Amer- ican Civil War. Social Science Opens New Worlds for Us George Feinthel again captures the attention of the entire class, including the teacher, Mr. Bus- ter, by telling another of his fan- tastic jokes in GOVERNMENT CLASS. 23 Mr. Mayleben points out to his BOOKKEEPING CLASS the use of the Combination Journal. Business Faces Annie Mathis gives Mr. Mart a sad look as the timer rings before she fin- ishes her TYPING. Forward Sandy Ayers looks over her shoulder and asks Sheila Bridges how “stenographic” is written in SHORTHAND. 24 Joyce Southerland demonstrates the Selcctric Typewriter and Executory Tran- scribing Machine while Annie Mathis, Eilecnc Wiles, and Pat Phillips take dic- tation in OFFICE PRACTICE CLASS. Dennis Lowe, John Stacey, and Mike Choate listen to Miss Schomburg’s lecture on CON- SUM ER ECONOM ICS. Jim Walters and George Dcssaurer arc making a cut with a metal lathe in METAL SHOP.

Outstanding performances by Dave Nolte, Jack Shinkle, John Snow, and Don Crum gained them positions on the EHL All-Star Team. Honorable mention was given to Paul Russell, Bud Hamblin, Richard True, and Larry Bennett.

The athletic program at Sycamore could not function without MANAGERS. Here Dave Welsh, Dan Eckert, Boh Kipe, Jim Grant, Steve Rcith, and Mike Shinkle clean up after football season and prepare for basketball season. The Reserve team, coached by Mr. Emerson, had an excellent year. The team finished the season in second place, losing only one game. The Freshman team, small but spir- ited, was simply over-powered by larger teams. Coach Mayleben said that the ath- letes showed definite promise of becom- ing valuable players for the Varsity.

The Aviators put a thorn in the side of Deer Park at the first of the season. This kept Deer Park out of the league running. In the middle of the season the boys almost did the same to Madeira, the league winner, but Madeira pulled the game out in overtime. Sycamore lost another overtime victory to arch rival, Indian Hill. In the District Tournament, with the help of two reserve players, the team proved that they were bet- ter than their record by beating Blanchester before being eliminated.

WRESTLING, in its first year at Sycamore, enjoyed a fine turn-out by prospective wres- tlers. Members of the team are indi- vidually pitted against opponents in their own weight class, thus pro- viding good individual competi- tion.

This year, through the capable leadership of Mr. Nick Marinaro, music students mas- tered new techniques and theories while gain- ning a better appreciation of all types of music. Various ensembles and choirs constantly worked to make Sycamore outstanding in the field of musical achievement. Each perform- ance represented many hours of concentrated practice to insure perfection and enjoyment. Highlights of the year include the candle- light Christmas Concert, a festive Spring Con- cert, and numerous other programs through- out the year for community enjoyment. Sycamore takes great pride in the music de- partment’s accomplishments, which deserve a great deal of recognition. MADAME JEANETTE ENSEMBLE: Virginia York, Rosemary Car- ter.

Music has been a language of man for many centuries. It has survived because of a flexible ability to express what often is hard to say. Music at Sycamore touches almost every dimension of creativity. En- sembles lend themselves to varied arrangements and work as small-scale choirs toward perfection. One ensemble at Sycamore. '‘High O’er The Mountain. includes (left to right) Gary Strassel, John Gruber. Bill Backus. Frank Gemindcn. Doug Greene, Chip Dieckmann. Dick Wuenker, and Randy Simons. Touch Like all music groups at Sycamore, ensembles also attend contests and par- ticipate in various concerts. Contests for ensembles were held in March at Miami University, while choir competition took place later in the month at Princeton High School. Students work throughout the year on many selections, yet when contest time rolls around, concentrated effort is placed upon required music. Their work paid off. for many groups received excellent ratings: however, a superior rating is needed to go to state contest. Therefore, choirs and ensembles work toward the day when “superior” will mean “Sycamore. The “Men of Harlech ensemble is comprised of FIRST ROW: Dale Grant, Phil Fox. SECOSD ROW: Charlie Brown. Tom Graler, Tim Banker. THIRD ROW: Clarence Pugh, Gary Daniels, and Bill Backus. Excellence Besides gaining credits, students find their musical courses very enjoyable.

As We Look Through interviews, pupils learn more about faculty and fellow students; therefore, Harriet Bruffey, Chip Dicckmann, Terry Miller, Mike Tomscn, JeiT Sahnd, Cheryl Simkins, and t.ayJe Keener look over different techniques used in interviews. Later (picture at right) Har- riet Bruffey and Van Miller interview Mr. Harcum, assistant superintendent and business manager, concerning future building plans for Sycamore High School. Jack Goshen, Connie Nordan, Reed Boatright, Claudia Dwyer, Brad Cooper, and Van Mil- ler examine local newspapers to find information for worksheets used in JOURNALISM CLASS. Through the KEYHOLE Mr. Carl Vorpe, representative of the American Yearbook Company, expertly checks over a layout for Carol Mund, club section editor, to help make the 1964 LOG the best ever published. Algernon, LOG mascot, watches proceedings carefully. Log Staff Call it what you may—a goal, an aim, or perhaps a far-ranging project, but no matter what the connotation, the fact remains that the production of the LOG equals hard work. Often, things look bleak and disparaging, but the lingering thought of deadlines to be met pro- pels even the most “unorganized” people to make strides. The LOG room is always filled after school with editors of various sections, each being in deep thought or concentrated effort. Perhaps this is why a sign hangs on the LOG room door—“Home is where you go when there’s nothing to do in the LOG room.” Yet, all admit that it is great fun, but also agree that to produce a book of memories con- stitutes a memorable job. Above, Eilcene Wiles, apd Brenda Murdock put the finishing touches on a picture sched- ule for the first picture-taking day. Below, Ann Blattmann and Frank Geminden, under- classmen section heads, look over the schedule and help Pat McKcnrick, Sycamore’s photographer, get his camera and equipment ready for a full day’s action. Of 1964 A great deal of time and planning go into each page of the LOG. Steve Curfman, boys’ sports. Shanron Malone and Carol Ertcl, girls' sports, find themselves in a corner, but for a very good reason. Section heads think this part of the LOG room very helpful, when checking old LOGS for “tricks of the trade. Below Carol Carrelli and Kathryn Schnicrle look very pleased with one of the many notices from the faithful bulle- tin board. Perhaps they will have the administration section finished by the deadline! Miss Ham, who unselfishly devotes a great deal of her time to the usually frustrated members of the LOG staff, seems happy while going over pages recently completed. Mariellen Markley, assistant editor, smiles relief un- til Tom Gralcr, 1964 Sycamore LOG editor, triumphantly discovers a mistake that the rest of the LOG staff has unfortunately overlooked. Sycamore Bonnie Oppon (see picture at far right) business man- ager, and Gary Daniels, advertising manager, check with Connie Farris (center) concerning the LOG subscription campaign, which she heads. Below. Elaine Traylor, spe- cial events, seems to be contemplating whether she will ever get her section done in time for publication. 113 CLASS REPRESENTATIVES.

Therefore, it is only natural that stu- dents gain a knowledge of what to ex- pect in an adult world. This year Syca- more has included politically affiliated organizations in its extra-curricular ac- tivities. These groups meet regularly to hear noted speakers, to hold discus- sions, and to participate in debates. Mr. David Kouns, American History teacher, and Mr. Robert Buster, Ameri- can Government teacher, act as ad- visers for these new groups. Students in search of various books and magazines are guided by student librarians. Their efficient assistance makes the library a well functioning part of Sycamore.

Whether in chemistry, geography or home economics, movies and film strips add to class- room dicussions and lectures. With the assis- tance of projectionists, teachers find it easy for their classes to make use of this teaching de- vice. Projectionists include (SITTING) Tom Conrad and Douglas Bond.

According to Karl Chapek, life is “Something that feels happy, plays the piano, likes going for a walk, and, in fact, wants to do a whole lot of things that are really unnecessary.” Perhaps this is true. But many of the seemingly “unnecessary” things in life are, in reality, the most important. Each new or different adventure lends itself to producing a well-rounded person. Sycamore’s extra-curricular activities may seem un- important to some, but their purpose is to instill a basic relationship among students and arouse an in- terest in many of the things life has to offer. Whether it be music, art, drama, sports, or service to others that spur one’s interest, Sycamore can easily fill the wish. With a good education and varied ac- tivities behind each student, a life full of “necessary” and a few “unnecessary” things can be insured. The pictures on this page show only a few of the various happenings club wise, yet many more of which Sycamore can be proud, occur. Charlene Hare seriously talks over the Y-Teen Potato Chip Sale with Connie Xordan, Andrea Goller. and Diane Harbin. Clubs sponsor many different sales and activities to make money for their club and school. A Begining, an End, an Ideal KEYHOLE workers, Mike Tomsen, Claudia Dwyer.

Homecoming Holds Crowning on Field After royal honors were received, the King and Queen, Reed Boatright and Cheryl Sim- kins, were driven past the stands for a big round of applause. Beginning the halftime parade, the quarter-horses, ridden by John Stacey and Mike Choate, cross the rain soaked field. Homecoming By being the first class ever to win first place, the sophomores set a precedent with their float, “Let's Do It Again.” G.A.A.’s “We’ve Got The Spirit Float, depicting the inspiration gained from “bathtub gin,” placed second in the difficult competition. Carrying the honors of third prize, the Thespians’ float, “A Funny Thing Hap- pened On The Way To The Forum,” circled the field. Bill Hensley and his date take time out at the punch bowl for refreshments. Homecoming Dance Renewing an old custom, the crowning ceremonies were led by last year’s King and Queen, John Meyer and Joanne French, on the foot- ball field at halftime. At this time they crowned Cheryl Simkins and Reed Boatright Queen and King (in picture above). Posing for the picture of the Homecoming Court are FRESHMEN. Toni Hensley and Mitch Chandler; JUNIORS.

At Annual Dinner, Teachers Receive Recognition The Teachers’ Bulletin announced that Thursday evening, December 12, was to be circled on all teachers’ calendars, for at that time the Annual Teacher Appreciation Din- ner, sponsored by the Silverton Bank, was scheduled to be held at the Junior High School cafetorium. The host and hostess were Mr. Tom Behr- ens, the president of the Silverton Bank, and his wife, Edith, who formerly taught in the Sycamore City School District. Mr. Bob Buster acted as master of ceremon- ies. Members of the faculty presented a hilari- ous skit, which depicted a typical principals’ meeting in Mr. Greene’s office. Mr. O. E. An- derson, executive manager of the Bankers As- sociation, was the guest speaker. SEATED at the speakers' table are Mrs. Hairy Perkins, Mrs. Edwin Greene, Mr. O. E.

Junior Class Play The tourists, Ann LaPage, Cheryl Feagens, Kathy Burkholder, and Sue Mitchell, first meet Tulley, Mike Rudolf, in the forest on their way to the Castle of Grand Fenwick. “The Q Bomb,” “Did you bring the sand- wiches?” and the antics of Tulley Bascomc, Chief Marshall; Gloriana, The Grand Duchess; Kokintz, the eccentric genius; and the soldiers of Fenwick made THE MOUSE THAT ROARED a lively and colorful production of the Junior Class. The first play to be performed on the round stage, the stage crew made full use of all the facilities with fifteen different scenes. This was truly a commend- able extravaganza performed and produced by the Junior Class. On December 10, under the guidance of Mr. Nick Marinaro, choral director; Mr. Jack Wagner, band director; and Mr. Larry Taylor, art director, the “Christmas Concert” was presented. Themes from the “Nutcracker Suite” were among the songs played by the band. As a finale, the com- bined choruses performed in melodious harmony “Hark, the Herald Angels Sing” to leave everyone with the joyous yuletide spirit. Mrs. Wagner, (center) her son, John, and Carol Schuler (right) appear to be captivated while listening to the Sycamore Concert Band. Christmas Concert Mr. Marinaro is directing the Mixed Glee Choir in a festive song to prompt the oncoming Christmas spirit.

Christmas Dance Heavenly Holidays” Thespians Produce District Winning Dino” This was the story of the rehabilitation of a poten- tial delinquent through the understanding of a psy- chotherapist and a young girl.

Washington’s Homestead Is Theme for Seventh Year The Lettermen’s Dance, the “Mount Ver- non Stroll,” has always been an annual event commemorating George Washington’s birth- day, February 22. At 8:00 the couples began pouring to the floor to dance to the music of the Silhouettes. With the assistance of the cheerleaders, the Lettermen decorated the cafeteria with silhouettes of Washington and copies of the original “Thirteen-Star Flag.” The dance was, as usual, a success, as all who attended would agree. The Silhouettes (left to right), Jeb Bagenstosc, Dick Murphy. Tom Geier. Bruce Falcin, and Mike Choate, provided the music for the evening. Carol Schuler and Charlene Warner, not Lettermen but just helping out, serve refreshments to Paul Russell, Sandy Becker, Ann Bradford, and Tom Foley. The weary Lettermen (at right) are dancing with their dates to the dreamy music while breathing sighs of relief that the decorations were up in rime. 137 Sunrise” Dawns an End The curtain goes up on the SUNRISE AT CAMPOBELLO stage to reveal a serious, moving tribute to one of our many courageous presidents, Franklin Roosevelt. This play be- gins at the Roosevelt’s summer home, Campo- bello, New Brunswick, Canada. The first act gives to the audience a general background and glimpse of what the Roosevelt family is like: the commanding Franklin, the devoted and understanding Eleanor, and the over- powering Mrs. Sara Roosevelt. It is in this scene that F. D. R. has his first attack of pa- ralysis and it is decided that the entire family should move to Mrs. Sara Roosevelt’s home in New York City. It is while talking to the presidential can- didate, A1 Smith, that F. D. R. decides to nom- inate Smith for president. Amid the roaring din of the crowd in Madison Square Gardens, on June 26, 1924, Franklin Delano Roosevelt confidently took the ten greatest steps of his life.

Senior Play In an affectionate scene, Eleanor, Shanron Malone; and F. D. R., Van Miller; show the warmth and pathos responsible for the creation of the Roosevelt family legend. The trials which F. D. R. must go through to accomplish his growing desire to walk were expertly brought out by Van Miller under the direction of Mrs. Kouns. 139 An Elegant Evening in Paris” Marks First for Juniors but Last for Seniors With the multitudes of floor-length formats plus the enchanting music of the Cecil Young Orchestra, the over-all atmosphere could be described as “elegant.” Junior-Senior Prom After retiring from the dance floor, the couples gather at the sidewalk cafe for refreshments. Just arriving are (at right above) Paul Russell and Sandy Becker, who have caught their first glimpse of the ficldhouse. now turned into the streets of Gay Parcel Junior-Senior Prom On April 3, at 9:00, the couples began coming through the walkway and past the blossom-scented Parisian gar- den to enter a world of smock-clad servers topped with berets, of the historic Eiffel Tower, and of the pictur- esque sights of Paris. This long awaited event was, due to the hard work and the tremendous effort of the junior class, the Junior-Senior Prom. This year an “Evening in Paris” was given to the departing seniors. Queen, Karen Lawson, and King. Reed Boatright, are traditionally leading the first dance after receiving their royal honors. 141 The most anticipated moment of the Prom is the crown- ing of the King and Queen. In charge of this exciting event were Sue Blair and Kathc AUendorf.

Her reply was, of course, Naturally.” The grand finale shows the entire cast marching and singing the “Log theme song. With the combined efforts of the committee and the cast, on April 17, under the direction of Miss Ham and Miss Schomburg, the twelfth Senior Assembly was presented. The purpose was the promotion of the 1964 “Log.” The theme of this year's assembly was “Sycamore Psychiatric Center.” With only their grades at stake, the students delivered riot- ous mimics of Sycamore faculty members. The act “Assistant’s Assistant,” by Clarence Pugh on his bongos is accompanying an announcement from Mr. Turner, alias Chip Dieckmann (not shown). Dennis Baylcss plays a well-delivered solo on the drums while rehearsing for the “Senior Sock Hop” planned for that night. The 1964 Senior Assembly could not have been produced without the ex- pert help of Dan Eckert, chairman of the stage crew. Dave Nolte, with his hilarious imitation of Syca- more High’s own “rebel,” Mr. Kouns, carries a shotgun over his shoulder to protect himself from the Yankees.

Athletic Banquet Completes Spring Sports The man-sized dinner, the introduction of all team members and their man- agers, the presentation of trophies, and finally the speaker of the evening make up the yearly Athletic Banquet for this season. The speaker for this evening is Mr. John Murdough, traveling secretary for the Reds. Coach Dan Henke, representing the team, gives the Baseball Trophy to the school, being accepted by Mr. Turner. The band concert, held May 15, combined the elementary, junior high, and the high school bands in a stirring production under the experienced leadership of Mr. Wagner. Above, the high school band plays while the younger children listen somewhat restlessly (left).

This year Janet Alcorn was given the honor of winning the NOMA award. Each year the National Office Management Association gives their award to the girl who has shown out- standing achievement in business courses.

For some it is an end, yet for most a be- ginning to a life of accomplishment and success. On Thursday, June 4, the anticipated evening arrived. One hundred and twenty four Seniors were to fulfill their goal of a high school diploma. Suddenly all of the past prepara- tions were barely remembered when Sycamore’s band began to play “Pomp and Circumstance.” The proud, soon-to-be “grad- uates,” walked down the aisle in their flowing robes of green or white. All eyes in the crowded fieldhouse watched as, row by row, the Seniors arrived at their seats. The invocation by Reverend Sinks, a welcome by class presi- dent, Bob Driver, and music by the choir preceded the speeches given by valedictorian, Tom Graler, and guest speaker, Grant Cannon. Then at last, the moment which would seal the mem- ory of graduation—the presentation of diplomas. One by one, the Seniors took the seemingly long walk, which ended in a handshake and a leather bound diploma. The benediction, the recessional, and then shouts of joy, sobs of sadness, and mixed emotion filled the air. The excitement was over; the goal reached; the memory fixed; the future waiting. That night each graduate left with a new goal and only a motto to guide him in reaching that goal. Perhaps it is only a graduation motto, but one which may de- termine the future—“To accomplish we must give nothing less than the whole of ourselves.” 156 157 The ficldhousc grew silent as Reverend Sinks gave the invocation. Above, valedictorian, Tom Graler, delivers his speech to the class and audience. At left, Mr. Denecke greets the Class of 1964 and introduces guest speaker. Grant Cannon, who spoke to the graduates and audience on various topics of in- terest. Below, class president, Bob Driver, speaks on be- half of the class. Above, one future graduate seems bored with all happenings. Below, Carol Mund receives her diploma from Mr. Marvin Wood, president of the Board, who handed the diplomas to the graduating Seniors.
