The Deutscher Verein has ex- sisted as an active organization at NNHS for many years. Its purposes are to stimulate interest in German- ic culture and encourage a pleasant social atmosphere outside the class- room. Executive meetings are held bi-monthly and general meetings five or six times a year. There are two traditional func- tions of the Verein : a reception for foreign born students at NNHSg and a cheese fondue dinner. This year the officers, President Brenda Staley, Vice-Presidents Lynn Hartl and Steve Sepinuck, Secretary Liz Pfund, and Treasurer Scott Ma- comber, had a ski trip to New Hamp- shire, a windjammer cruise of Bos- ton Harbor, and a musical evening. Italian Club The Italian Club was one of the most active groups this year. Its pur- pose was to give Italian students an identifying organization, to en- hance culture through Italian festivi- ties and to stress the importance of the study of Italian at N.N.H.S. This year's club officers were President Donna Rondina, Vice- President Danny DiBona, Treasurer Diane Marine, Secretary Marie Ri- goli, and Social Chairman Elaine Di- Matteo. They arranged such suc- cessful programs as the Spaghetti Supper, a trip to Italy, and the Italian Club Banquet. The Italian Club mem- bers also generously donated trick or treat candy to a children's home.

The Armenian Club started off its second year with its five members: Gary Eynation, Da- vid Donabedian, Alan Dermar- deroshian, Tony Pahigian, Charles Vanesian and their ad- visor, Mr. Edward Sahagian. It offered an opportunity for so- cializing among Newton North students sharing a common Ar- menian heritage. They spon- sored a lecture on the history and politics of the Near East in order to share part of their Ar- menian culture with the entire student body. When enough students are interested in learning the Armenian Ian- guage, they hope to start a lan- guage class at N.N.H.S. The French Club met weekly during X-Blocks. This year's ad- visor was Mr. Carmine Tru- biano. Elise Supovitz and Lisa Gelin were the presidents. The positions of secretary and trea- surer were filled by Lisa Alberts and Jiff McGary. With the help of it's sixty members, the French Club had a fondue party, a' French lan- guage day, participated in the French play, took a trip to Paris during February vacation, and a trip to Quebec in April. lt's principal goal was to be- come more involved in French activities, and the club achieved this goal.

In their struggle toward a brighter future, their cadres have emerged unified and strengthened. In the course of these two and a half years the membership has been collectively subjected to an Octobrist expedition, a Russian Ortho- dox Easter church service, and vast quantities of starchy and greasy Rus- sian food. ln the pursuit of world peace and brotherhood they have overlooked Sino-Soviet ideological differences and consented to a dinner and a round-ta- ble discussion in a Chinese restaurant.
