Captains of all the four sports gave talks on the accomplishments and goals of their teams . Main speaker was Viking offensive end, Jerry Reichow. His speech portrayed the problems of a professional football player. He also showed a film— Viking Highlights. The Lettermens Club sponsored a pancake and sausage supper. This event was a profit- able fund raiser. It also put the boys to work making pancakes, clearing the tables, and washing and drying dishes. Field trips were taken by members of the Varsity teams. The football squad went down to a University of Minnesota football game. A-squad basketball players spent three days at the State Tournaments. Earlier in the year the football team played an exchange game with Kensington. Next fall the Kensington team will spend a weekend here. Underwood traveled to WHS for the Holiday Basketball Tourney.

Pawns, Carols Dominate Club Meetings An invitation to WHS faculty to attend an Oktoberfest was the first activity of the German Club. Assorted cards and calendar sales kept members busy during the Christmas season. They also caroled throughout the community during Wienachten. German Club members also sang at WHS concerts. One new club was granted a charter this year at WHS. The Chess Club was formed in January. They set up a series of papers and lectures designed to aid the members in improv- ing their chess game. After each meeting they played games. During the latter part of the year they made a triangular board to.show standings. Two chess meets with Morton gave the players outside competition. They unofficial- ly lost the first meet 21-2 7. Handicapped by the absence of three of the top five players they lost the second meet by one point. GERMAN CLUB: Seated L. to R., P. Mathiowetz, S.
