'FOREWORD This year was commemoratedin gold, but more dearly in memories. The largest enrollment in the history of Wausau Senior High encountered new faces, fun, and problems. Seniors charac- terized animals in a lively satire, REYNARD THE FOX, then HARVEY, a comedy about a big white rabbit, was presented in the spring. Junior girls sponsored a holiday discotheque, and their class bid farewell at the Prom to the seniors with A Taste of Honey . Each season brought its sports in which Wausau High excelled, as is its tradition. Even with all the fun, education was still the first concern for most students. Senior themes, college boards, and semester exams filled hours with study and occasional worry. Ecstatic bursts of happiness with each college acceptance echoed through the halls in spring. And finally in June all the work seemed worth while as with a feeling of triumph, the members of the class of 1966 received their diplomas., 5 :. 'Q ' .N .. ---' Y' 4 , Y. -. Q ,, .4 .

The old building, which today holds our administration and social science departments, housed all activities in 1917. Additions To Old Building Broadened Though the school's facade has changed throughout the years, the scholastic goals of its students have remained the same. ,----.T ln August when students were procrastinating the thought of school, teachers were at work preparing lessons and making arrangements for books. The football team, too, was getting into shape for the big 1965 fall season. Band members, in order to put on an impressive half-time show for the first game, began practicing eight steps to five yards several weeks before classes started. When students entered Wausau Senior High in early September with first day enthusiasm, they found a few changes from the preceding year. Two new vice-principals, Mr. Jacobson and Nlr. Poulos, were helping Principal Taylor with his administrative work. A new method for checking absentees was instituted by the new attendance director Mr. Cox. Soon the inevitable problems resulting from changes in the old system were solved, and school life settled into a smooth-running routine. Juniors and seniors quickly re- newed old friendships with classmates and teachers. Horace Mann and John Muir graduates made friends of last year's rivals. Together they familiarized themselves with the unique life of Wausau High. Through coopera- tion, 2150 students studied in a pleasant atmosphere as the school operated efficiently despite its increased size. By October both teachers and students began to feel at home in the three buildings of W.H.S.
