The strength of the team was shown by winning over a strong Exira team 13-7. Hopes were dwindled when the next three games were lost to Manning, Guthrie and Glidden Center, and Glidden.

Led by Alvin Grabill, one of the best wrestlers Audubon has ever had. Bob Davitt, Audubon's second state champion, and Tom Nelson, Audubon's all regional 165 pounder, the wrestlers piled up an out- standing team record. The grapplers were fifth in the Omaha North Invitational, were second in their district, placed sixth in the state meet and were the first Audubon team to take three places in the state finals. They continued the seven year record of never having been beaten by a school their size and firmly established themselves as the best team in Southwest Iowa. 112 120 127 133 145 165 OUTSTANDING INDIVIDUALS R.

The future of the high school varsity squads depends upon the success of junior high sports. The enthusiam of the junior high sports is always very good. Competition is good as well as tough in many cases. These events proved to be a lot of fun as well as good ex- perience for all the squad. Good luck to our future Audubon High School heroes!

To the Class of '57: According to Nicholas Murray Butler there are five tests of the evidence of education—correctness and precision in the use of the mother tongue; refined and gentle manners, the fixed habits of thought and action; sound standards of appreciation of beauty and of worth, and a character based on those standards; power and habit of reflection; efficiency or the power to do. I hope that each of you will find that the Audubon High School has provided you with the educational background, desire; and experience necessary to meet these tests and that each of you will enjoy a full and en- riched life as a result of having attended this school. H.H. Rice Superintendent To the Annual Staff: We are living in a period of high civilization where thoughts fly freely from mind to mind and from country to country. We cannot dream ourselves into a character, we must hammer and forge our way to success. The Audubon High School students can be very proud of this year's Wheeler and its Staff. They have forged and hammered away until we have a perfect replica of the 1956- 1957 school year. James W. Cooper Principal Office Help Virginia Jorgensen and Bernice Petersen ARLETTE HOLLISTER, B.
