A big- ger enrollment than ever entered the doors on August 31, 1964 . Things were a little cramped and crowd- ed until the new addition was completed in early February. The new library made re- search and reading more convenient. New classes, clubs and materials made over-all educational standards at WHS even higher. Well rounded extra curricular activities gave each student a chance to do outside work on his own special interests. A peppy personality and intellectual curiosity developed as the school grew in size and students grew in stature. The Rabbits worked in harmony through- theterm. A mock election, concerts, school dances and a dress-up day kept students marching toward future goals. Counsel- ing sessions guided seniors toward their occupations in the next years . While trying to place 171 days of en- ergy and learning on paper may be diffi- cult the 1965 RABBIT has tried to do just that. The year of the storm, annual events and the ever exciting progress and pro - cess of learning are recorded on the fol- lowing pages. Pages we hope will serve as a journal—a reminder of nine months during 1964-1965. Annual Staff, seated from 1. tor., P. Way, M. Christensen, S. Sinclair, D. Jenniges. Second row, 1. tor., G.

The largest annual sale ever made possible the addition of ten picture pages. Advisor Mr. John L. Richter, the editors and three staff members attended the Gustavus Adol- phus annual workshop in early November. Although school was closed editors struggled over seven foot snow drifts to meet their first deadline. Picture taking sessions captured the year's activities and special events.

A GAA Initiation and a Irish Olympics Playday highlighted the girls' side of the athletic wheel. New GAA girls had to prove their ability to meet the membership requirements. These included Chicken Fat , a recording of different exercises and disguising themselves in gunny sacks with gobs of make-up on their faces and knots in their hair. A goal of 250 points challenged the members throughout the year as a new point system was adopted. By doing extra activities such as hiking, attending meetings, and winning games brought the girls closer to their goals. Take it easy!

Seniors toured the Capitol where they had a chance to view the Sen- ate in session. After grabbing a bite to eat,the next thing on the agenda was a tour of the Ford Plant in St. Paul. The plant consisted of 22 acres. With plenty of time on their hands, the class had an opportunity to do anything they wished in down- town Minneapolis. The grand finale of the trip was supper at theLem- ington Hotel. A gift to the advisors from the senior boys, which was a dozen roses for Mrs. Jenks, and a rather lengthy pipe for Mr. Davis, was presented as they entered the dining room. After a long day, the seniors headed for home. ARLAN WILLE Pep Club............. Camera Club.......... Letterman............ Chorus............... Homecoming King . . . Homecoming Attendent.

Holiday Tourney Highlights Basketball Season With the best season since 1951 the Rabbits tallied a 7-12 won-loss record. The future looks promising as the 1964- 1965 starting team was composed of un- derclassmen. The Christmas Tourney was one of the years highlights. A quest of WHS letter- men Underwood captured the 1st place trophy. Wabassotook 2nd place honors over Belview and Winthrop. High point man for the season was sophomore Charles Jensen who was named to the All -Conference team. The B-squad racked up 11 wins and three losses.

Wins over Sanborn and Belview and loses to Milroy and Redwood Falls gave the Rabbits a 2-2 season with six games cancelled because of poor weather. Senior Larry Weber, captain and most valuable play- er, will be the only graduation loss from the squad. The Rabbits ended their season with a 4-1 loss to Southwest Conference champion. Redwood Falls, in District Ten play. With sixteen squad members re- turning next year, the prospects of another good season are very high. Winding up is Bob Fenger, sophomore pitcher.

Trial, Dance Enrich Wabasso Study Seniors made the main bulletin board during their mock campaign and elec- tion. A Mock Trial was presented to WHS students on May 3. Wabasso students portrayed all the roles and a student jury brought back the verdict. While reptiles and small mice often turn up in a biology room, a rodent of a different color spent a weekend there this year. A shrew held WHS biology inter- est as he wiggled his way out of cages and across the room. Girls in physical education and GAA were introduced to modern dance for the first time this year. They spent a num - berof weeks studying the forms and moods of modern dance. Four lyceums were presented at in- tervals throughout the year ranging from sea life exhibits to a dramatization of John Brown's Body. A Chorus-line consisting of school board members, teachers and men from thePTA was one of the high-lights of the PTA Variety Show. New FHA officers: L. to R., D. Shoer, J. Pohlen, A. Werner, M.

L. to R., Nancy Hoffman, Debbie Fixsen, Barbara Menk, Bonnie Werner and Pam Fixsen. Elementary principal Mr. L. Geske and Mrs. N. Ramey check kindergarten sup- plies . Bad weather came too late to halt the finishing of the new addition. Anew library, a kindergarten room and space for two new classrooms were added. The library contains a work room, confer- ence room, listening room and a periodi- cal stack room. There are study carrels situated throughout the library for indivi- dual study. Special furniture was added near the magazine rack. Elementary stu- dents are separated from the high section by a book island. An open house was held April 12. A view of the library's new furniture. Weather Hex Gives Unwanted Vacation Dritts reaching to the top of the ground floor kept students away for nine days . Old Man Weather played a villain's role during March this year. He sent snow—and more snow pi- ling to the tops of ground floor windows. WHS students missed nine school days because of the fluffy white flakes. The snow and high winds made roads impassable. Meetings and many school events had to be rescheduled. The Dis- trict Basketball Tournament game with Fairfax on March 4 had to be postponed. School days were a little harder to re- schedule. Only one day of Easter vaca- tion—Good Friday was the answer. Stu- dents feared additional days would be added in June and many rumors circulated the school. But commencement exercises and Awards Day remained as previously planned. But Minnesota's undependable wea- ther hadn't finished disrupting lives yet. Even prom night wasn't exempt. Rain , rain by the bucketful fell to dampen eve- rything but WHS spirits. Rain tried to jinx the senior trip to the Twin Cities also, but after facing wind, snow and the rest of the elements it would take more than water to make Wabasso student's pep soggy. Janitors had to almost tunnel through to reach the school entrance. CLASSES SEVENTH GRADE: Front row: 1. to r., M. Strand, J. Hengel, J. Salewske, D. Engel, L. Johnson, S. Johanneck, R. Dallmann, D.

Furniture for the library and kindergarten rooms was only one of the details they had to oversee. A joint board meeting with eight area schools gave the members a chance to show their addition to people of sur- rounding communities. The board was represented at the 44th annual Minne- sota School Board Association Conven-' tion. Superintendent Rustad attended num- erous conventions and meetings for school improvement. Region II meetings and Minnesota Association of School Administrators were among the most im- portant . At a Seven-State Conference he was one of the speakers on the Shared Time Programs. Weather gave administrators and the school board additional headaches . Be- cause of the loss of so many snow days it was feared it would be necessary to extend the term until June. But the weather held off and school closed as planned on May 28th. Commencement exercises were held the night before. Looking over plans for the new addition are Superintendent, Mr. H. Rustad; Ele- mentary principal, Mr. L. Geske; and Secondary principal, Mr. W. Gasho. Conventions Spotlight Board Studies SCHOOL BOARD; M.Fuhr, C. Dresow, Chairman W. Radel. Superintendent H . C.

WHSAAB Builds Stronger Athletic Program A decision to build an outdoor concession stand came out of the regular monthly meeting of the Wabasso High School Athletic Association Board. The WHSAAB handled decisions concerning new uniforms, blazers, eligibility, and the Athletic Banquet at a meeting in the spring, they authorized the purchase of a Polaroid camera for use by the Athletic Department. A most valuable track and baseball player will be named this year because of a WHSAAB decision. Bus routes changed after another Mother Nature raised havoc with the roads this year. First mounds of snow blocked roads, then as the snow melted the roads bogged down in some areas. Seven men and one woman served as bus drivers. Over 280 students rode the buses . BUS DRIVERS: L. to R., A. Dennistoun, A. Werner, Mrs. C. Van Hecke Jr., L. Daub, C. Baker, R. Bierl, K. Bernard, W. Nonnemacher.

All sewing projects were modeled at a Teenage Closet fashion show in early May. New desks were bought for students who were taking bookkeeping. These desks give the student advantage of room to work in and room to store books in. With the new library, Mrs. Christensen, remedial reading instructor, acquired a small room of her own to teach her students. Field Trips Accent Classes Mr. Dick Kumlin is showing the elementary teachers how to operate the projector. Second grade teacher. Miss Martin spent her sum- mer in England. She observed Parliamentand Big Ben . She also saw the guillotine of London Tower. The chang- ing of the guard was another highlight. While not traveling quite so far most of the grades went on field trips . Pipestone National Monument, Plum Creek, the capital, and Fort Snelling were some of the tour sites. When the location of the country the grades were studying was too far to travel to they brought the coun- try, castles from the Middle Ages, an Indian display and many other exhibits could be seen in the elemen- tary room sthroughout the year.
