The choosing of a specific style of class ring was an important decision made by the juniors. The Sculptura style was the ultimate choice. The fact that it was available in four sizes and four different stone settings made the individual choice of ordering a ring equally difficult. STEP TO BECOME SENIORS We are all faced with a series of great opportunities--brilliant- ly disguised as insoluble problems. FIRST ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT: Mr. Montbriand, P. Morrison, P. Ott. J.

JUNIORS TAKE LAST GIGANTIC Little motivation was needed to activate the juniors of 1965-66. In the fall a magazine drive was sponsored to raise money for the Prom which they had to finance in the spring. The goal of $2700 was reached. Additional funds were obtained from operating the conces- sion stand during the football season and sponsoring a sock hop after a basketball game. A representative from Josten Jewelers visited our school early in the winter to display the different styles of class rings. The class of 1967 chose the Sculptura style ring. Later in the winter, the junior girls, with the approval of the American Legion Auxiliary, selected Jane Simcox to represent Belle Plaine at Girls' State. The three-act comedy, Ask Any Girl, was presented to the public by the junior class on April I and 2. The cast consisted of twelve girls and five boys. The highlight of the entire year was the Prom which was held on May 7. Arrangements and decorations accenting the theme Wonderland By Night, created a romantic and dreamland atmosphere in the gym. 28

This time it's fish! The sophomores can look back on a very successful and exciting school year. Intro- duction to senior high life became very interesting with academic courses such as English, American history, plane geom- etry and biology, and vocational courses such as home economics, business typing, agriculture, and shop. The social side was highlighted with sev- eral different events. One of these was a sock-hop, which was given shortly after the basketball season came to an end. Other highlights were the sophomore class party, and last but not least, the privilege of some sophomores to serve as waiters and waitresses at the Junior-Senior Prom. A few sophomore girls were lucky enough to attend the gala event as dates of junior and senior boys. Drivers training education was offered to those interested sophomores under the direction and guidance of Mr. Ott. The attaining of a provisional drivers license was the reward of accomplishment of passing the written test and the road test for these students enrolled in the program.
