Student Council co-ordinated school activities by scheduling homeroom meetings, pep fests, assemblies, and social events. New lounge furniture, partially contributed by Student Council efforts, provided a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere to the school routine. The Council continued their $400 scholarship for one graduating senior, and resolved the problem of profits in the new refreshment stand. New flags, purchased through this organization, were placed in all classrooms and the traditional Pledge of Allegiance was revived. Other activities included the actual Homecoming Booster Banquet and ice cream sales. The 1964-65 Council elections, characterized by campaign posters, speeches before the entire student body, and the final balloting, culminated activities for the year.

CouttSe W F C i 760 MORRIS NESS Counselor LESTER HORN Guidance Director But our family can't afford that college, I just don't know what to do! What am I going to do about that class? Counselors contended with these problems and many more as Seniors prepared for college and the Juniors and Sophomores planned future class schedules. The counselors' job was to individualize education, giving the student more significance than just a name and a number. If anyone had a problem, the counselors attempted to help the student help himself in reaching the proper decisions. Too often Mr. Horn and Mr. Ness were known as the testers. This was understandable, due to the stiff entrance requirements of colleges. PSAT, MSAT, SAT, ACT, Co-op English Test, and ITED were only a few of the tests a counselor had to explain and evaluate for students and parents alike. Also, there were aptitude tests and personality evaluations. Everyone perceived the counselors differently. The non-college student looked for aid in obtaining future jobs. Special emphasis was placed on post high school education at the various business and trade schools and in the military services.

RhjI Otoss Qe wyl flAcuuj Contrary to belief, the Junior Red Cross didn't spend its time making slings and putting band-aids on sore fingers. It did, however, perform many helpful and rewarding services during the year. The club members first arranged to have the A.F.S. students record a Christmas message to send home. Next, the club filled twenty-four school chests with school supplies and personal accessories such as towels, toothbrushes and combs. These chests were sent to schools in distressed areas selected by the Red Cross office in Washington, D.C. The girls also made dolls and toys for children confined to hospitals and knitted afghans for Senior Citizen Homes. The club selected two delegates, Anne Cambronne and Cheryl Hoaglund, to attend monthly meetings at ihe Hennepin County Chapter House. to CW 4 GU $ Beware of students bearing apples. This was only one bit of advice offered to the newly formed chapter of the Future Teachers of America. This club was organized to acquaint the student with some of the many skills and experiences of teaching. At the club's first meeting, a panel of speakers from the Edina FTA discussed their own club's activities and purpose. Thus, the Wayzata FTA commenced with counsel from an older organization and with a fuller appreciation of the club's objectives. During American Education Week, club members taught at the four elementary schools in Wayzata. The service, publicity, social, and program committees were formed to establish better efficiency. John Laxon, during National Education Week, captured attention of Oakwood third graders. FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA Back Row l-r. J. Hayes, C. Swaggert, P. Phillippe, V. Wiley, B.
