Wausau High's Got It From the chill of those early fall days of color, to the excitement of the state championship basketball game, to the climax of graduation night, realities quickly became memories. ln September Wausau Senior High students entered our three-building complex to find the largest enrollment ever programmed in capacity-filled class- rooms. October brought Wausau Week and its added spirit that led the Lumberjacks to a football conference championship. The senior class presented Dark of the Moon on two November nights. During the December holidays the Juniors sponsored their annual dance. This year's theme was Some Enchanted Evening. The new year saw the Tophatters perform on a freezing January night. The curlers returned home with a first place trophy while the debaters took second in the state tournaments. February meant the start of the second semester while March found students flocking to Madison to cheer for the Jacks against Milwaukee Lincoln in the state finals. In April we danced on the Carrousel at the Junior Prom, and by May we had made final decisions about schooling and careers. Finally the class of 1967 reached com- mencement in June. With this concluding event the school year ended, a year that made each student aware that WAUSAU HIGH'S GOT IT!

This newer unit of Wausau High with its picturesque landscaping is quite a contrast to the old building which is connected to it Despite Three Sizeable Buildings Cut From the basement to the third floor the old building is used mainly for the administrative offices and the social science department. With 2,225 students entering the doors of Wausau High in September, it was apparent that the space problem was a growing concern. Not only did some students find themselves being scheduled for a class in the church across the street, but also many had classes in the base- ment of the old building. For the taller student. this was an uncomfortable situation as low ceilings, hazardous heating ducts, and low-hanging water pipes, made stand- ing up straight an impossibility. Incoming sophomores had to adjust to the idea that only half the school was on their noon hour, with the other half at another time. Viewing the long lines waiting to be served by the cafeteria staff, it was hard to believe that at one time Wausau High had only one noon hour. Juniors and seniors, accustomed to this routine, did find that last year's audio-visual room was converted to an indus- trial arts class. Movies were shown in the mezzanine of the auditorium. The model home used by the home econ- omics department and the old kindergarten room also had been made into classrooms. Though Wausau High consisted of three units--the old building, the main unit, and the new cafeteria and gym area-the administration realized that these facilities were not adequate. Such suggestions as building a new high school, adding to the present one, going on a split shift, and the possibility of using the two year plan, were all studied. Whatever the answer, the 1966-67 school year was the last under the existing conditions.
