Foot- ball O ' Rama brought the beginning of football sea- son and of the school year. The death of President Kennedy cast a gloomy atmosphere over the Thanks- giving Holidays. Christmas holidays came — and left. It was now 1964. New Year ' s resolutions were made — and broken. Mid-year exams called for the usual crammings and late hours, but the break was welcomed. Sectionals came with the excite- ment and traditional tears, ending the major athle- tic activities. Freshmen by now were in the swing of high school life while seniors were trying to visualize what the future held. The climax of their high school life — Prom and Graduation — was be- fore them, all too soon. The school year of 1963- 64 is now a memory. AS WE reflect over our years at WHS, most of us will smile or shed a few tears. To help bring back some of the things that may have been for- gotten, the REFLECTOR staff recorded events dur- ing the year AS WE . . . 3 Printing Presses Stand as Silent Bearers of Grief Mr. Vesely is pictured assisting Larry Dixon and John Kobe in setting type for the bi-weekly Tattler. Mr. Bernard J. Vesely 1899-1963 Room 14 is silent now. As we try the door, we find it locked. Not a sound is heard as we pass by. The presses inside, so active only last year, remain silent and still just as the man who once watched over them with loving, skillful eyes. This room and these presses were the charges of Mr. Bernard J. Vesely for the 42 years he taught at Whiting High School. Mr. Vesely passed away June 21, 1963. His students knew and respected him as a teacher. The publications ' staffs often called on him for advice and proofreading, and the Tattler staff depended on his printing the paper every two weeks. Many students also knew Mr. Vesely as a friend. He often offered suggestions and helped in painting signs and making decorations for various activities. His friendly smile and greeting were missed by all this fall as we began another school year. The huge oil can which he fashioned and painted stands staunchly on the roof of the Whit- ing concession stand at our football field. It pays tribute to a fine friend and wonderful teacher, Mr. Vesely. PRESIDENT JOHN F. KENNEDY 1917-1963 ‘And, Then, in a Moment It Was No More’ The fundamental call to greatness is com- ing not from any party or any person but from history and the hard logic of events. Little did John Kennedy know how history and the hard logic of events would pay his call to great- ness when he made this statement. John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born on May 29, 1917, in Brookline, Massachusetts. In 1940, he graduated Cum Laude from Harvard Univer- sity. D- ing World War II, he served in the United States Navy. From 1953-61 he was a United States Senator from Massachusetts. On November 8, I960, he was elected Pres- ident. On January 20, 1961, John F. Kennedy was sworn in as 35th President of the United States. Thirty-four months and two days later, on November 22, 1963, he was shot and killed in Dallas, Texas. In a message ro the United Nations, his suc- cessor, President Lyndon B. Johnson, said this of John F. Kennedy: My nation has lost a great leader, this organization has lost a great friend, world peace has lost a great champion. 5 Whiting Junior-Senior High School, center of education. Whiting High School Campus: Center of Academic, Whiting Public Library supplies the students with up-to-date information and references for study. It also provides a pleasant atmosphere for leisure read- ing or further study for adults. Hail Sturdy Oilers peels throughout the gym- nasium on game nights. Students and adult boosters come to see the Oilers strive for victory and fight for the green and white. As well as being the home of WHS basketball games, the gymnasium also is used as the site of monthly activity nights, post-game dances, and graduation ceremonies. Whiting High School campus is a teenage world built within a block. Students bustle in and out of the library in search of information and enjoyment. ”!! id Athletic and Social Activities During Year Academic, athletic, and social activities center about the Whiting High School campus. Located at 1800 New York Avenue, it consists of the junior-sen- ior high school, public library, and gymnasium. Foot- ball and baseball fields, situated near Whiting Park, are the scenes of all Oiler home games. The junior-senior high school building, the mam part of the campus, consists of 22 classrooms. In these rooms 30 teachers put the mental abilities of the students to a challenge. They are taught, to compete with classmates and to set their goals high. Apart from classrooms the building inc.udes a regu- lation size swimming pool, girls ' gym, library, audi- torium, and lunch room. From the first freshman basketball game to commence- ment evening, Whiting ' s Memorial Gymnasium remains the center of student life. It ' s often said that fools rush in where wise men never dare to go, but such is not the case at Whiting High School. Anytime during the school day, one can find the wise scholars of WHS rushing to meetings, rushing to class and, towards the end of the day, rushing to their favorite hangouts for a little refresh- ment before starting for home. The school day for Whiting High School students begins at 8:15; and after a 15-minute home room period, classes commence. Whiting girls rush through the doors in an effort to hurry to their lockers and to their class.

Six hours a day, five days a week, thirty-eight weeks a year, we are attending classes which will play a vital role in forming our futures. Whiting High ' s curriculum provides many out- lets for the intellectually curious mind. Many efforts are being made to modernize our courses and classrooms to keep pace with everchanging times. Students planning to further their education are provided with courses needed for entrance to college. Future mechanics and home-makers may pursue their interests in the industrial arts and home economics departments. The vocal music and art departments help students discover spe- cial talents. We quicken our minds, develop our talents, and begin our education toward our future ca- reers AS WE LEARN. Board of Education Attempts to Raise Standards Board of Education. Mr, Joseph S. Kozacik, treasurer; Mr. Joseph Pieters, secretary; Mr. Thomas Zubeclc, president: Mr. George O. Buman, superintendent. George O. Burman, Superintendent To you, the graduates of 1964 go my sincerest congratulations. For the past four years you have received the encouragement, advice, and instruc- tion which you needed to complete successfully the requirements for graduation from our high school. Everyone in the world has various kinds of per- sonal responsibilities . . . everyone also has one basic responsibility . . . that of contributing his best for the welfare of all mankind. You can best assume this responsibility by ob- taining all the education possible. My good wishes for every success go to each and every one of you. George O. Burman Superintendent and Improve Facilities of Whether you made National Honor Society or finished at the bottom of your class, whether you made All-State or did not participate in athle- tics, whether you were elected to class office or defeated, whether you were considered a big suc- cess or just another member of the class of 1964 — what is most important now is that you grew into adulthood as All-American citizens of these United States. You can accomplish this by striving to build good homes, good churches, good schools and good communities. You all can dedicate your- selves to this end. Ray P. Galivan Principal Public Schools Problems of our school weigh heavily on the shoul- ders of the Whiting Board of Education. Like mighty Atlases, these men carry the Whiting Public Schools through every crisis — small or large. In spite of the closing of the print shop, they have made it possible for each student to receive a free copy of the Tattler. ’ The aim of the board is to see that educational facilities are functioning efficiently.

FRONT ROW: Lor- raine Serafin, Rosemary Chandik, Virginia Ruman, Linda Kiraly, Skipper Banik, Ruth Ann Sinai, Paul Laub. SECOND ROW: George Butkovich, Andrew Majda, John Gyure, Barbara Ziara, Tim Gorman, Pat Rogina. Getting their second Scholarship W ' s, from the Christ- mas tree are Tom Wozniczka, John Render and George Kucka. Absent from the picture is Marilyn Hrpka. Arlene Benko and Nancy Jamrose set aside books for a moment to look over their third Scholarship W ' s . WHS students have many opportunities to gain recognition for a special achievement. Sports- minded boys may receive a W for attaining a certain athletic standard, while a Scholarship W serves as a reward for the diligent student. The Scholarship W is circular in form and each year ' s is a different variation of green and white. The person who earns four Scholarship W ' s receives it stamped on his diploma. To earn a scholarship W , a student must maintain at least a ’ ' B ' ' average in every subject for both semesters of the school year. English Forms Basic Part of WHS Curriculum Chuck Zondor ponders the question Whet did he do? as he studies diligently for his daily classes. Oh, don ' t hurt him! exclaim Virginia Ruman and Barbara Ziara as George Toth and Ken Zubeck display acting talents in speech class. The basic subject in the WHS curriculum is English. It is the only course that students are required to have as a major. Every student from his freshman year on has a semester of English Grammar. Freshmen, juniors and seniors alternate grammar with literature, play reading, or journal- ism, and sophomores have a semester of speech. In this way students explore every phase of English — speaking, writing, reading, and basic mechanics. The English Department hopes that offering a variety of English courses will help students in their other subjects. Mr. James Ulrich ' s senior grammar class is soothed by classical music while they try to pass another difficult test. 29 Len Tucker and Gerri Zorich dress in traditional ancient Roman apparel. Andy Majda, Len Tucker, and Ann Gorman start the day differ- ently by reciting the Pledge of Allegiance in Latin. Latin Club Stimulates Interest In Ancient Rome At the Latin Club initiation, first-year Latin students are raised from slaves to Roman citizens. 30 Using the language lab to improve their pronunciation, are Nancy Desatniclc, Karen Bowen, and Mary Kompier. As trains, jets and speeding ships carry people around the world in a comparatively short time, the language barrier prevents people from better under- standing each other. WHS keeps pace with the changing times by offering Spanish and Latin as for- eign languages. Students acquire an extensive knowledge of Span- ish by viewing films, singing songs and discussing the land, its people and customs. Latin pupils not only learn about the history and mythology of the Romans, but also ' gain an excellent foundation in English vocabulary. Knowledge of Latin also helps one in learning all other Romance Lan- guages. Interested Whitingites Adopt Spanish Customs 31 Whiting Students Bravely Tackle Math Problems Advanced algebra students — Al Hruskoci, Jeff Justin, and Slen Manich figure out a problem with the use of the slide rule. With pencils, slide rules and compasses in hand, students of Whiting High ' s math department tackle problems. College-bound students are offered algebra and geometry to develop thinking and reasoning ability. Advanced algebra and senior math are available to those who choose to continue in science or higher math. Students venturing into the business world are urged to study general business and business math. While working on a geometry assignment, Mike Skvara shows Ed Sandrick the method used to prove two triangles congruent. Under the supervision of Mr. Thomas Faulkner, business math teacher, Susan Balutis and Laura Faught learn to compute the la- test sales tax. Business Courses Mold Future Officeworkers Barbara Cooley, Sandy Bishop, Phyllis Banazak, and Nikki Galam- bos observe as Mr. Arnold Turner, office practice teacher, demon- strates the operation of the ditto machines. Future office workers participate in WHS ' s com- mercial course program, consisting of typing, short- hand, office practice, and bookkeeping. Shorthand and typing students constantly strive to type and take dictation more rapidly and accurately. Beginners find practical uses for asdf-jkl; and strange symbols. Students in office practice learn to file and to operate ditto, calculating and mimeograph machines. What a revoltin ' development this is! exclaims George Brezene. Students in bookkeeeping develop skills in account- ing and legible record keeping. Mrs. Virginia Gergel demonstrates an experiment in oxidation as Steve Mihalso and Loni Cain watch eagerly. Scientists Challenge Laws of Matter and Motion Hand me some of that H2S04 will you? Did your electricity give you a shock yet? These are some of the questions one will hear if he wanders into room 32 during a Physics or Chemistry class. Chemistry is a science that deals with the charac- teristics of elements and the changes that take place, while Physics is a science dealing with matter and energy. To the chemists and physicists of WHS these definitions mean fun with science while learning. Bob Dennis and Dave Soverly help them in physics class. Mrs. Virginia Gergel points out the inert elements on the Periodic Table to Jim Novotny. 34 use the incline plane to Enthusiastic Students Study Riddles of Life Biology students watch unsus- pecting amoebas go about their daily routine. The Whiting High School science department is fully aware of the need for astronauts to conquer outer space, as well as bacteriologists and doctors to conquer the germs and sicknesses of the earth. As a result, students are offered a variety of science courses which include biology, the study of living things, and general science, an exploration of the universe and the earth. Linda Dolato and Dwight Jones attempt to identify a biology specimen. The seventh grade science class ponders over a test given by Mr. Tom Kujawa, instructor. 35 Social Studies Pupils View Past and Present Leo Jacko and Bridget Gorman look on as Mr. Michael Mihalo, geography teacher, shows them where they are accordina to his map.

Gloria Dunker and Bruce Miles get in practice for ' 68 when they ' ll vote for the first time. 36 Seniors Study Hygiene, Anatomy and Diseases Because of its great value and extreme impor- tance, one semester of Health is required in order to graduate. Health is usually taken during one ' s senior year, but it is also offered to underclassmen in summer school. on certain diseases. Health students study personal hygiene, anatomy, th e causes and cures of many diseases, and first-aid. Requirements for health students are keeping a note- book with health drawings and preparing a report Mrs. Shirley Mehleck explains the process of digestion with the help of the body charts to Bruce Perisho and Don Dollins.

Tom Reynolds shows Matt Petrak how white wall tires could improve the appearance of a car. 38 Driver ' s Training, available to upperclassmen, en- courages them to learn the rules and regulations of the road. To prepare students for emergencies and as an aid to them as future car owners, they are re- quired to know all the parts of the car. They also learn courtesy and the right attitude towards driving, which is vital knowledge. Future architects learn chart making, pictorial drawing by scale, map making and architectural drawing. Shops Introduce WHS Boys to Future Vocations Silence preveils over the print shop, since the death of Mr. Bernard J. Vesley, WHS print shop teacher for the past 42 years. Male Oilers, seeking industrial arts knowledge, take wood shop and machine shop. Development of fundamental shop skills is the main objective of these courses, while they also familiarize boys with different tools and machines. The woodworking artist expresses himself in shop by adding a personal touch to each of his creations. Future machinists discover the uses of the machines and how to operate them. Industrial arts courses stress investigation in these fields rather than learning the trade. Chuck Fear and Bill Denno show their skills in machine shop. Jerry Lewandowski looks on as Dave Stephens puts the finishing touches on his latest wood shop project. Home Ec Classes Prepare Future Housewives Sandra Janiga and Noel Podobinski show Mrs. Delma Byers, cooking teacher, how to set a table correctly. Using pots and pins and buttons and bowls as elective class utensils, home economics students pre- pare themselves for later life. Besides cooking, home economics students must learn about nutrition and meal planning. They give an annual tea for female faculty members.

Behind-therscenes workers at WHS are members of the maintenance department, who strive to keep our school building clean and bright. Whiting High ' s office staff keep students records in order and answer many telephone calls. Besides mimeographing announcements, tests, and study guides, these secretaries record the yearly expendi- tures of the clubs and classes, as well as those of the school. AS WE PARTICIPATE AS WE enter the halls of Whiting High School, we find that there is more to education than books. To be prepared to live with people we must know how to get along with them and work with them. This knowledge can come only from experience, and Whitingites gain this experi- ence through clubs and extra-curricular activities. By joining clubs and working actively to make activities a success, we learn to accept leadership and its responsibilities. We develop our personal interests. We learn how to work successfully in a group and with a group. Teachers sponsor clubs and chaperone activi- ties. We learn to respect their authority. We be- come accustomed to working with adults. Many lasting friendships and pleasant memo- ries are a result of the WHS extra-curricuiar pro- gram. The activities and clubs we join act as mirrors of our interests. They are keys unlocking the doors to our futures, AS WE PARTICIPATE. Personable Scholars Earn NHS Membership Character, leadership, service and scholarship — these are the four cardinal points represented by the keystone and the flaming torch, the em- blems of the National Honor Society. By the flam- ing torch, members of the NHS are taught to bear forward the searching light of truth. Like their sym- bol, the candle, these characteristics bring light into the darkness of the world about them. During the junior year, five students are initi- ated as officers in the society, and the following Christmas, students in the top per cent of their class are admitted. National Honor Society Officers: Nancy Jamrose, presi- dent; Bunny Dolinski, secretary; Mrs. Marie Lentvorsky, spon- sor; Arlene Benko, vice-president; Fed Hapak, historian; and Rich Christiansen, treasurer, cast their studious reflections onto the mirror.

Others may take an active part in supporting our team from the sidelines. Whichever our roles may be, they are equally important AS WE COMPETE. The athletic department is one of the busiest departments in the school. The three major sports are: football, basketball, and baseball. For those who aren ' t interested in these sports or whose skills lie in other forms of competition, cross-country, swimming, and track are available. A new addition to Whiting High is intramurals. For athletic-mind- ed females a program of girls ' sports has been pro- moted. Through competition, students learn to accept and follow orders. The major aim of the athletic department is developing good sportsmanship among teams and fans alike. W Club Honors Whiting’s Deserving Athletes The main purpose of the W Club, composed of WHS athletes, is to promote sportsmanship and leadership. An athlete is awarded a ”W” if he has met the requirements for the sport he participated in. Requirements for football and basketball are play- ing in 10 quarters and 36 quarters, respectively. Receiving a baseball letter requires playing one- half tfie innings and nine innings for a pitcher. Other sports requirements are I I points in track, and an average of 2 points each in swimming and cross-country. Activities of the W Club include ushering at basketball games and sponsoring an initiation dance. • W Club officers — Jay Chrustowski, secretary; Dennis Bondra, vice-president; James Walsko, president; Drew Thomas, treasurer — stand proudly in front of the trophy case.

It is up to us to develop our own talents and pursue our spe- cial interests. As individuals we join clubs, partici- pate in sports, and begin to mature. After our orientation as freshmen, we slowly begin to adjust to high school life. Our sophomore year begins our actual preparation for our future careers. As juniors we unite our efforts to present the Junior-Senior Prom. As seniors our thoughts turn slowly to Commencement and the decisions of the future that face us. We are WHS students. We work and play as individuals and as groups. We are the vital part of the school. We make Whiting High School what it is. We would like you to meet us AS WE ARE, THE STUDENTS. Jamrose and Benko Named Top Scholars of 1964 On today ' s students, the leaders of the future, is placed the responsibility of running a most power- ful and progressive nation. Each of you, however large or small your position in life may be, will make an effect upon your associates, community, and country. A society is only as strong as its weak- est individual. It is the responsibility of each and every one of you to keep your country strong by being strong in yourself, so that your children will not be brought up under communism. To be a good citizen requires persistence in your endeavors, loyalty in your love for your neigh- bor, and a staunch belief in the ideals of your de- mocracy. Good luck in the future, Education is the basis for our future life. We, the seniors of Whiting High School, will soon complete the first phase of this education. The faculty has given each and every one of us an equal opportunity to enrich our minds and to mold our characters in such a way that we are able to attain the individual goals that we have set in life. Some will broaden their educational knowl- edge by attending schools of higher learning; others will embark directly on their journey of life. Whichever your course may be, may you all succeed. To you, the underclassmen, I say, Take the opportunities given to you and strive to make your foundation firm enough to support your life ' s ambitions. Don ' t build your future life on sinking sand, but build it on solid land. 88 Mrs. Byers and Officers Aim for Best in 64 Dear Senior Class, It is hard to realize that four years have passed so quickly, and that you are now ready to leave Whiting High School. It has been interesting to see how you have developed physically, mentally and socially since your freshman year, when the greatest delight of some was to turn the class meeting into a cheering session. Remember? Many times I was greatly provoked, but now the memory of those little pranks provokes a smile. All of you have learned now to take on re- sponsibility and to do things well. I am proud of you! You have had the opportunity for the best preparation that school can give. You have en- joyed associations with classmates and teachers which you will remember all of your life. After graduation some of you will enter col- lege or universities, some will go into business or industry, and some will become home-workers. No matter what your occupation may be, the greatest satisfaction will come to you from do- ing well what each day brings you to do. Since I, too, will be leaving school, may I say, Good-bye, good luck, and I ' ll be seeing you. Sincerely, Delma Byers Class Sponsor 1 kf It Tar ' ■) C” ' Tm. 1 ii kw ?! i 1 ■dB®? s JgtrTT A W Senior Class Officers.
