FHA Girls The FHA initiation party held in the fall, proved to be fun for the older members, but a true challenge for new members, The torture chamber consisted of walking on ice cubes and drinking a succulent brew of hot gelatin, salt, garlic, and other spices. FHA girls' beautiful, soft hands were then placed in gooey, raw egg yolks. A Hobo Dance was the FHA highlight. Hobo attire was required of anyone wishing to enter the dance. Kathy Schueller, senior, and Joe Brand, junior, were selected hobo queen and king for their exceptionally appropriate dress. The judges were Mrs. Janet Lund, advisor, and Mrs. Mark Eichten, chapter mother Cook, Clown, And Crown FHA, home economics girls preparing to serve one of their delicious meals. FRONT ROW, L to R: C.

During the weeks preceding and succeeding the contest they traveled a- round the school giving previews to WHS students. It was the first time in five years that Wabasso had a local contest. This was due to the wide turn-out. The picture shows declam- sters that went to the sub-district and or to the district con- test, as not all students had to compete at the sub-district level. Five Seniors Experiment Being Disc Jockeys Speak for a Scholarship was one of the highlights of five of the seniors. After prelimin- ary judging these five contin- ued to the KNUJ studios at New Ulm. There they gave news of current happenings at WHS over the radio. For Yvonne and Janet, their chance did not come until May be- cause of Minnesota snow storms and icy roads. L to R: J. Lindeman, Y.
