Tempting fall days drew students onto the campus. With Fall We Returned REMEMBER WHEN Senior High opened to its largest enrollment September 3? We found ourselves adjusting to classes, homework, and traffic patterns. Up only and down only ,stairs perplexed many of us, but the routine soon became familiar, and we lost our amaze- ment at the speed with which summer had flown by. New friendships were welcomed and the old were renewed. Schedules and classes be- came the main conversational pieces among stu- dents. Special attention was given our foreign guests, Gay Anderson from England, Vicky Cadiz from Columbia, and Gunner Erkan from Turkey, who enriched our student body. The warm fall weather and colorful leaves were highlighted by our many activities. Hav- ing won the 1964 Bellamy Award, our school sent the Student Council officers and several advisors to Chattanooga, Tennessee to learn about the acceptance ceremony. Seniors spent many hours in thought and practice on the Senior Class Play. The excellent performance of Take Her, She's Mine was well enjoyed. We looked forward to weekend football games with great anticipation. We were very proud of our Jacks, who achieved not only the Big Rivers Conference title but the state championship. The old and newest units of WHS awaited the onrush of students as school reopened in September.

REMEMBER WHE . . . Each year brings its own memorable events, and 1963-1964 is special for each cherished moment. We had fun, learned well the lessons taught, and reaped the rewards of achieve- ment. School spirit caught us as our Jacks fought hard and achieved victory. The teams made every booster proud. The band, orchestra and choir performed with enjoyable precision and sounds. Casts of the senior class and spring plays brought memorable moments. The Stu- dent Council continued to introduce new ideas and programs, yet found time to repeat the old and traditional. Members diligently worked to plan the acceptance ceremonies for the Na- tional Bellamy Award. Dances spotlighted party dresses, foot-sore young men and fragrant cor- sages. This year Wausau High's largest student body walked through her halls and into her classrooms. Traffic patterns and assemblies by television visibly indicated the great number that were here. Students and teachers will re- member each homeroom, each assembly, each prom - because each is a memory of Wausau High. Yet, the year will always have a tragic meaning in our thoughts as we recall Novem- ber 22, 1963 - the day President John F. Ken- nedy was assassinated. There will be joy and sorrow in the moments we spend recalling the events of this year . . . moments that ask RE- MEMBER WHEN?
