There were various activities such as volleyball, scoopball. ping pong, and dancing. Supper was sprved afterwards. For their Christmas party they went caroling with the F.H.A. and had a dance afterwards.

During the Parent Teacher Conferences this year, the FTA not only served refreshments, but also acted as guides for the parents. During Education Week they sponsored an Appreciation Tea for the entire school personnel. The Danube Future Teachers were guests of the Renville Chapter at a meeting in which they viewed slides on Japan and its educational system. Themem- bers attended FTA Day at Mankato State College. Here they had the opportunity to view the campus and also to pick up many new ideas re- guarding the teaching profession. At their meetings they have viewed many movies and slides on teaching. To be an active FTA member, each student must spend one hour per week assisting a teacher, thus learning the advantages as well as the disad- vantages of the profession. ROW I, Front L. to R.: D.

STUDENT COUNCIL STATE DELEGATES: R. Shanahan and P. Minkel. The Student Council was very busy this past year. As a student representative organization, it did its best to develop cooperation among the stu- dents, the teachers, and the administration as well as to develop characteristics of good citi- zenship through student participation in school activities. The main project of last year was developing and improving the student center. This special room was set aside for students to drink pop, eat candy, or relax during their free time. The Student Council also established and promoted the dress code of Danube High. The Council also revised and amended the Constitution of Danube High School. It also conducted the activities relevant to Homecoming, class party approvals, and other yearly tasks of the council very well. Mr. Solheim served as the adviser of this organization. OFFICERS: K.

The high school band provided the musical entertain- ment, and speeches were made by the football coaches and co-captains. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of Cindy Tazelaar as the new 1967-1968 queen by Nancy Schen- del, the 1966-1967 queen. Following the coronation, there were skits presented by the tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades, and a bon fire pep- fest on the football field. The following Friday at 1:30 in the afternoon, the annual parade began. The many floats submitted showedmuch hard work and enthusiasm on the part of the organizations represented. The many entries made it difficult for the judges to pick a winner. Following the afternoon festivities, the P.T.A. served the� annual supper in the school cafeteria. In the game that evening, Danube defeated the Bird Island Panthers with a score of 10-6. Later the Homecoming dance with its theme, In the Misty Moonlight , was held in the auditorium.

The Full BRIGADOON Cast SPRING MUSICAL BRIGADOON” By Lerner and Loewe The musical comedy, Brigadoon , was presented on May 2, 3, and 4, 1968, at the Danube High School Repetory Theatre. The musical was pro- duced by the junior class and opened to the entire high school. The full Brigadoon ' cast consisted of 70 students. Blending words, music, and dance, Brigadoon tells of the adventures of two Americans, who stumble into the village of Brigadoon in the highlands of Scotland. They discover it is an enchanted town that comes to life for one single day every hundred years. One American falls in love with Fiona. He returns to New York, quarrels with his fiancee and at last goes back to Scot- land, where by the power of love he reawakens the slumbering town long enough to join Fiona. Dancers, D. Hotovec, G. Poortvliet, and B. Mulder, performed the sword dance during the wedding scene. Charlie, D. Williams, drops in unexpectly at the McLaren house.

Two one-act plays were given by the Danube high school students. The Precious Damsels was given by members of the senior speech class. The play was a farce concerning the high society written in the 1600's in France. This play was presented in the round—audience on four sides. The other one-act was The Man in the Bowler Hat . The play is about a plain couple wishing for excitement. Their wishes are made realities when actors use the living room of this couple as a stage for rehearsal of a play. Both plays were put on equally well but The Man in the Bowler Hat went on to the district contest. There it received third place. DIRECTORS: L. to R.: Mrs. Larson, The Man In The Bowler Hat ; Mrs. Lasley, The Precious Damsels . This year many were interested in declam. Over fifty students partici- pated in pre-locals. This number was then reduced to eighteen. The divi- sions of interest were serious inter- pretation, humorous interpretation, non-original oratory and storytelling. Seven students went on to the district contest which was held at Sacred Heart. Danube received fifth place of the thirteen schools that participated. Those students that brought home an A rating were B. Zuidema, M. Reep, P. Solheim, and D. Sundin. ADVISORS. L. to R.: Mrs. Lasley. Mrs. Larson.

B B ACTION Danube scrambles for the ball. L.Hoekstra battles J. Richards for rebound during Buffalo Lake game. The team this year had a generally pretty good season. In the beginning of the year the team had a few off nights which lowered its rating from what was originally expected. However, the team fought hard during the remainder of the season to become a serious threat to conference standings. Neil Schendel and Brian Gort led the team to a tie for second place with a 13-5 regular season re- cord. The 212 District tournaments started auspiciously when Danube defeated Buffalo Lake 71-61. In the second tournament game, the undefeated Hector Bulldogs managed to stop the Hawks with the score of 75-53. A. Kurtz pulls down rebound against Buffalo Lake.
