As a result of this awareness, the student body has participated in the brother- hood city student-exchange programs, government seminars, and scholarships. The seniors of i959 participated in the first Know Your Government Seminar sponsored by the local YMCA, Seniors from high schools in the area participated in a well-planned, guided tour of the historical, governmental, and cultural aspects of Washington D,C., New York, and Philadelphia. In June, 1959, four members of the class of l96O studied government under the first United Nations Scholarship plan. Roger Groenewold, Mary Hay, Barbara Hegg, and David Minge were chosen. primarily on the basis of a term paper dealing with the United Nations and an oral interview by college judges. Besides being a U. N. Scholarship winner, David Minge represented the school in governmental affairs by being elected the Minnesota representative to the National Student Burgresses in February at Williamsburg, Virginia. During the past year the student body has been preparing to aid in sending two members of the i962 class to Crailsheim, Germany, as exchange-students. This proiect has been in- strumental to our interest in peoples of other nations. From this brief summary, the reader can see that WHS students have developed an avid interest and enthusiasm in community, national, and foreign relations.
