"what does it take to open this door?
It takes intelligence, initiative, desire. It takes young men and women capable of
benefiting from a university education. And it takes money: Since 1955,
the General Motors companies in Canada have provided over 225 deserving
students with the opportunity of completing their higher education. Twenty-five
scholarships are granted each year. Each scholarship may extend through four
years and be worth as much as $2,000 a year. Grants are also made direct to
universites. The participating universities select the scholarship winners and set
the amounts of the awards. Selection of studies is made by the student. At GM we
regard this as a double investment, for those who have the ability to open the door to
University are also opening a second door--to Opportunity.

"Mr. Richardson Speaks…
Once again the Yearbook staff has provided us with a fine souvenir of
the year 1963-64. Speaking for the teaching staff, we offer our congratulations in that
it reflects accurately what has been to us a very pleasant your.
We hope that this school has helped students develop individual responsibility, and
has given opportunities for the development of the inquiring mind. We hope above
all that students have found a genuine satisfaction in learning, and that they have,
through their curricular and extra-curricular activities, learned how to live effectively
and successfully with others.
I have no hesitation in predicting that the graduating class of this year will maintain
the tradition of excellence and scholarship which has become a trade-mark of
Pickering District High School. Best of luck to each of you.

Commencement
The Commencement Programme this year was a very interesting and enjoyable
experience. Honours and awards were given to many students from those of Grade
Nine to those who have now moved on to a life outside Pickering District High.
Of course, the main object of the occasion was to congratulate and extend best
wishes for sucess to the people who graduated from our school last year, and to
recognize the achievements of Grade Twelve students who have become the
graduates to be honoured at the Commencement Programme next fall."
Shown above with Mr. Richardson are the students awarded for proficiency in
academic work, on the evening of Commencement. They are (Bottom row L-R)

Hawthorne - Grade Twelve; Elanor Westney - Grade Eleven; George Wright -
Grade Thirteen; and Wanda Williams - Grade Twelve Commercial.
"The Valedictory Address
George Wright - Valedictorian
Mr. Richardson, Honoured Guests, Members of the board, Fellow Graduates,
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This evening it is my honour and responsibility to speak to you on behalf of the
graduating class of 1963. In one way it is an ordeal to be the spokesman for such a
varied group since there are only two experiences common to us all, the first being
our attendance at this school for the past few years, and the second being this,
our graduation.
Tonight we realize that our days at high school have become only memories.
Of course each of us has his own memories of life at Pickering High.
The first day in grade nine when we were most cruelly separated from our friends
and sent to our respective classes where we sat timidly and quietly, occasionally
daring to took at a teacher, and even to carry on a conversation with him.
I am certain that the Latin students will agree that Miss Carroll considerably
enlivened Latin, the dead language. We will remember the days on which we went
hungry because lunch period followed zoology period in which we dissected
specimens for study. Our hands will never forget the writing marathons held daily in
Mr. Russ's Botany periods. And no matter what we may have let the French
department think, we studied French for reasons other than being able to read the
French writing on the backs of cereal boxes.
A CLOSING CHAPTER
Even if these memories, both of the school and of our friends, are all that remain,
we cannot feel too sad in closing this chapter of our lives, for we stand on the brink
of an exciting life that promises much hardship and much happiness.
As we advance to meet with this exciting new life, we owe an expression of gratitude
and appreciation to
"
"VALEDICTORY CONTINUED
those who have made this evening possible for us. Through the years,
our teachers have always guided us toward this graduation night, and although
there must have been at times, especially after the Christmas and Easter exams,
when they felt that their efforts were fruitless, still, they worked on, for us and with us,
and yet they were always willing to devote much of their leisure time to helping us.
When our university professors ramble on, and refuse to stop and answer our questions
because there are over two hundred people in the class, we begin to appreciate the
personal attention that we received from our high school teachers.
FAREWELL TO FRIENDS
As we say farewell to these kind friends, we extend to them our sincere thanks for
all that they have done for us. They saw the first of us, and now, they see the last of us.
To our parents too, we are deeply grateful, for we could not have done without their
understanding and encouragement. It is only now, after we have completed our
secondary education and left high school, that we realize our great debt to this
school and its teachers. While here, at Pickering High, we have had the opportunity
to use our talents not only for the development of ourselves, but also for the enjoyment
of others in the areas of drama, music, and athletics. We have learned the meaning of
responsibility by our participation in various school clubs, and especially in the Student's
Council, which supplied us with an opportunity to practice democracy and leadership.
We experienced a sense of pride when we were able to meet and solve arising
problems with little or no aid from our superiors, and to know that by our vote we were
contributing to the government of the school. Without doubt , these clubs have helped to
mature our sense of responsibility.
In closing I would like to read to you a quotation from a book by Charles Morgan,
entitled The River Line: ""Life doesn't consist of standing on the beach and selling
peanuts in paper bugs. Better swim. Better drown if necessary. Responsibility is a
hard bread to be eaten with a rough wine, not sopped in milk. No one can eat it for us.
Eat or Starve."" The challenge is before us. Let us accept the challenge or responsibility.
As we separate tonight, my fellow graduates, I wish you happiness and success
in your chosen careers.
Thank You.

The Students Council
I should like to congratulate the editor and members of the Yearbook Staff for a job
well done. Allow me to express my sincere thanks to all those who supported me for
presidency and who continued to support the entire Student’s Council. I hope that I
shall be able, with the help of the Council, to fulfil their desires.
On the whole, our dances have been a success this year and I hope this trend will
continue. Even more important, I hope it will improve, because, as everyone should
know, School Spirit is not something which the Student’s Council gives to you,
but it’s something which you, the students, with our help, make for yourselves.
In closing, I should like to welcome to P.D.H.S. all our new students to say farewell to
our graduates and wish them continued success in the future.

" DAY IS DONE
Junior Essay
First Prize
The brilliant sunset blazed in the west, shooting darts of scarlet across the dancing grain.
All nature flamed in glory. The stream became a river of fire sparkling under a
shimmering viaduct. As each bird flitted by it was bathed in vermilion radiance.
The fawn drinking at the pool paused to gaze at the sght before it dashed away on
glistening hooves.
Slowly the glowing sun dipped below the molten rim of the peaks. For a second the
world stood still, entranced by the majestic splendours. Then peace enveloped the
earth.
Flowers nodded for the last time that day. Blinking once again the roosting birds
tucked their heads
under their wings. The deer nestled down amongst the shrubs. With a sigh the wheat s
talks bowed their heads. Frolicking zephyrs gave up their game of chasing tails.
Gradually the pace of the river slackened. Shadows began to grow. Day was done.

"Sunset
Second Prize
Junior Essay
The rusty door creaked defiance as the worn hinges effected their painful task.
Wearily he shuffled out onto the verandah. This long-established ritual had never
been abandoned, he thought, as he trudged over to his favourite rocking chair.
Being an old man with failing sight, he had found no pleasure in reading. Instead
he had set up this custom of reflecting upon the past day, indeed past weeks,
even past years, as he sat there comfortably, watching the setting of the sun.
The night was chilly. He wheezed from the moisture of the dank air, and drew
his sweater more tightly around him. His frail frame rebelled against the cold,
and his wrinkled hands trembled when he adjusted his spectacles. He endured
the damp only to see the beauty of the glorious autumn sunset, that never failed to
thrill him. True grandeur had he found in the majestic setting of the sun as it touched
the horizon with its fiery glow on previous evenings. It seemed to warm his heart,
heighten his spirits and enlighten hope through those dark, meaningless, lonely years.
The night was peaceful and quiet. His expectancy was heightened as the sun stole
towards the line of the stately cedars, the sentinels guarding the winding dirt road that
led to the house. The clouds descended like mist hovering over the drowsy world.
Those fleeting wisps darted across the pale blue sky. The filtered bars of sunlight
tinted the clouds with purple, pink and pale yellow hues. In the heavens the sun sank
slowly earthward.
He did not find what he had hoped to see in the sky tonight. When he dwelt on his
thoughts, however, he uncovered depths of hidden meaning. Sunset was like Death,
he surmised. Some people accomplished a lot and were very successful, contributing
more than their share to society. They would be remembered. Their death would be
mourned like the end of the short-lived bursts of rich, glowing colour before the sun
sinks out of view. For many, their sunset would be merely the turning of a few clouds
from white to pale pink, perhaps overshadowed by clouds, the people of more
importance. Yet they would still affect someone, not a nation, or a continent as
others would, but the life of a loved one, or a few citizens of a small village.
These people would soon be forgotten.
He had no relatives to mourn his death, not even a close friend to regret his passing.
His wife had died when giving birth to their first child. It had been like acid, eating
away at his heart and soul, but he had surmounted the painful memory. Because of it
he given that “wee slip of a boy, David”, that poor orphan child, summer vacation at
his farm the past eight years. David had called him “Uncle John” and had wished he
could stay at the farm forever. David would cry when he died, a child’s tender fear.
This was the sum of his accomplishments after the pain of his wife’s death. Happiness
had meant nothing; misery was all he had ever known.
Yet, while he rocked there alone that chilly night, he felt akin to the world,
at peace with himself. His numb body was deaf to remorse. He had found true
happiness in the serenity of the sunset. The darkness descended as his eyelids
drooped and he breathed his last with the words, “And to this good old world, Amen!”

"Black Midnight
Third Prize
Junior Essay
On the brow of the hill stood, as quiet as a statue, Black Midnight. Every inch of him
was thoroughbred, proud and kingly.
His neck was gracefully arched, his head high as he sniffed inquisitively the zephyrs.
His muscles tippled under his satiny coat as Black Midnight moved his great legs.
He flaunted his tail, a long raven-coloured cascade, trailing off to his fetlocks.
His black back was round and firm looking; his whole body was stream-lined and
promised great speed.
His face wasn’t befitting such a wild beast. Beneath his spirited gaze, one could
pick out a gentleness. His eyes, placed far apart, were large and liquid, like a fawn’s.
Rippling down his face, from between his ears which were pricked up,
was a delicate-looking blaze. It appeared as a sweep of frost on his intelligent face.
His distended nostrils caught up every scent as he guarded his kingdom.
His mane was long and his forelock hung between his eyes like a naughty boy’s.
The mane covered his neck and draped over his shoulders.
Suddenly without a warning, he reared. From his mouth emitted a breighing neigh
which echoed on the hills around.
His body was now full of motion. His legs were powerful pistons, reaching down to the
sun-scorched grass. His mane leaped up as if it were a living creature. His tail fanned
the air and his long body stretched out.
Down the side of the hill re raced, bellowing savagely. Dust swirled up from his infuriated
heels and he thundered around his harem, a little band of mares. He became mad,
insane with rage. His great yellow teeth reached out at the shoulders of his mares as he
forced them into a close, compact huddle.
His eyes were no longer beautiful, but lined with white. Foam sprayed from the stallion’s
mouth as he reared, spun around and jostled the mares into position. His tail streamed
behind him, his great ebony body parallel to the ground.
He nipped the mares and set them into a frantic run, sweeping down the valley, closely
followed by a cloud of dust. Over the plain in frenzied flight they galloped until they
appeared as a dark blob and disappeared over the horizon. Gone from me once
more was the horse of my dreams.

"First Prize
Senior Essay:
His name, Johnny Payola – occupation, missionary. This story is true.
Only the names and incidents have been changed. Johnny the Commie started off his
campaign by trying to inculcate it through the natives’ crass heads that CERTS is a
candy-breath mint. The incipient results of his campaign showed that the Mau Mau’s
had 39% more cavities than Earl Cameron because a CREST shine shines like a new
shine should shine. It cleans like a white tornado and leaves you breathless. The natives
used colloquial words in saying that their automatic didn’t work and was overflowing
with suds. Johnny, on the spot, found the trouble and told them to use transmission fluid
and new DERTZ can put them in the rumble seat. He offered to help but found out that
the natives would rather do it themselves. The natives were so indignant that he
promised that they’d be in good hands with NOTHINGSTATE. He used blandishment to
get the natives to eat new THUNDER BREAD that weakens bodies 9 ways. He tried to
divert certain cabinet ministers’ attention to helping him run a campaign against the
squalid Smokey the Bear who, cognizant that every litter bit hurts, made the ducks
stamp out forest fires before the forest fade, fade, faded away. He also tried to
inveigle them to show that you get lots less with L&L and more activated charcoal and
extra margin with L.S.M.F.T., Lucky Strife makes ferrous tobacco. He made it obligatory
to use Finktalis, the new hair-dissolving discovery that’s better than NAIR and lets you
dissolve away unsightly grey. Finally, after two years, he disseminated the news that
CREST has been shown to be a defective decay inventive dentrifice that can be of
insignificant value when used in a subconsciously deprived program of moral hygiene
and irregular professional care. Johnny left the natives with this reminder: Speedy
Muffler King,
Is the motorist’s best friend,
It makes your car run like a wreck,
That’s all for now, the end.

About Crows
Humour Prize
The old crow is getting slow.
The young crow is not.
Of what the young crow does not know
The old crow knows a lot.
At knowing things, the old crow
Is still the young crow’s master.
What does the slow old crow not know?
How to go faster.
The young crow flies above, below,
And rings around the slow old crow.
What does the fast young crow not know?
Where to go.

The Day I Canned The Can
Down the halls I madly chase,
Hoping a teacher I will not face,
If late for class with no excuse,
I’ll be a dead duck or a cooked goose.
But Lo Behold What blocks my way?
That “Keep Right” can, I’m sad to say.
A deafening crash, a blinding light,
And up I jump with all my might,
Into my room I frantically speed,
Praying that no one has seen my deed.
That old can I can truly say,
Has seen many a better day,
It will never by the same,
As now it’s curvier than a dame.

The United Nations Club, as its name implies, is primarily a world affairs club.
Numerous debates are held concerning varied subjects from the ever-present
problem of Red China to discussion of the recent Panama crisis.
Of course the club has a more social side a well. We have begun to hold a Foreign
Food Night once a month, at which we serve a meal from one particular country.
Our last was a British dinner, complete with roast beef, Yorkshire pudding, trifles, etc.
One of our main concerns each year is the U.N.I.C.E.F. Campaign which occurs each
October at Hallowe’en. Shortly before the campaign we hold a rousing assembly
(which often is a bit more rousing than we had expected) when we attempt to recruit
as many volunteers as possible to cover the whole district in the collection of
contributions. The money gathered from this campaign is then submitted to
U.N.I.C.E.F. for use in providing food and clothing for foreign children who exist in a
poverty and squalor which we could not imagine.

BARBARA HORRASZ
Barbara who is an all round athlete proved herself to be an outstanding high jumper
this spring when she won this event at our own track and field meet, (becoming,
incidentally, the Junior Champion) at the Lakeshore meet, where she set a record of
4’ 5”, at the COSSA meet, where she set a record of 4’ 10”, and at the Girls’ Invitational
meet at McMaster University jumping 4’ 9”. Her goal for next year is 5’, and we think she
can do it.

Dave Bate, Henry Kroon, Dolf Van Nus, Roy Puckrin, Bob Richards, Fred Baker,
John Robbescheuten. The Junior Team was composed of S. Hunt, R. Sluuters,

"Dale Pyke, Marlie Ritchie, Barbara Egoroff
These girls, our cheerleaders, provided an air of encouragement to the team players
and one of excitement to the game onlookers this year. In their tartan skirts and white
sweaters and with their many cheers they exhibited the spirit needed for successful
sports events."
Rosemary Snow, Diane Holden, Angela Magnus, Lynne Patterson
"Volleyball
The volleyball Team this year has displayed ability and desire. In six scheduled games
against local adversaries the team returned with a strong of six victories. This earned
them a place in the C.O.S.S.A. finals. The boys performed creditably but could manage
three wins versus five defeats. Of the five losses four were by less than three points.
Entering the All Ontario Finals, Pickering fought against overwhelming odds from larger
schools but came away happy with a fifth place standing. The team was composed of
J. Robbescheuten, N. Parker, M. Kearney, G. Robinson, K. Messer, M. Burnie,
C. Trenholm, D. Cockaine, J. Hunt, and D. Robertson.
Volleyball Intramural Champions
GRADE 9F: S. Ruscitti, L. Leblanc, K. Mackie, G. McLellan, D. Bunn, H. Kaaz,
A. Patterson.
Soccer
Pickering, as in previous years, had always had a better than average soccer team.
This year two shutouts were recorded. The team split a two game set with Dunbarton 1-0,
and 3-1. Against Cobourg we took three of a possible four points beating them once 4-0,
and tieing one game 1-1. Congratulations to the boys and the coach."
