The Wabash winds through snowy scenery east of Bluffton. Studies are, of course, the first and most important part of school life. Under this surface of academic activity, though, runs a vital under- current of extracurricular activities. The greater part of outside activity takes place in clubs, societies, and other groups. Some organizations have as their purpose extending interest in sub- jects taught in school, while others honor dis- tinguished work in school and school-connected work. Some meet to serve others and improve themselves, and one organization, the Cheerblock, provides vital support for basketball teams. Many social events originate within these groups. In all of them, students enjoy doing things with their friends. But the most important result of group membership is not immediately apparent. In each, members are working with others, giving and taking, to reach a common goal. This association gives practica in dealing with others, a valuable asset through one ' s whole life.
