St. Ambrose School




This relic of a photograph recalls the days of 1964. We just finished the 1950s (that decade ended in November 1963) and were heading into the 1960s. Apparently there is an imposter in the group.

Mothra v Godzilla premiered in the theatres that year along with several other films.
Some sports history from that year:
World Series: St. Louis Cardinals d. NY Yankees (4-3)
NBA Championship: Boston d. SF Warriors (4-1)
Stanley Cup: Toronto d. Detroit (4-3)
NCAA Basketball Championship: UCLA d. Duke (98-83)
NCAA Football Champions: Alabama (by AP, UPI)

The top ten records were:
1. I Want To Hold Your Hand, The Beatles

2. She Loves You, The Beatles


4. Oh, Pretty Woman, Roy Orbison

5. I Get Around, Beach Boys

6. Everybody Loves Somebody, Dean Martin

7. My Guy, Mary Wells

8. People, Barbara Streisand

9. Last Kiss, J. Frank Wilson and The Cavaliers

10. Hello, Dolly! Louis Armstrong
