GUberto Schleske Mr. Steven Szucs Mrs. Ann Trevino The U.S. Biceniennial Year of 1976 marks the 48th anniversary of the American School Founda- tion of Monterrey. With a modest incipiency in 1928 in Colonia Obispado with a student enroll- ment of 57 and a teaching staff of three, the School has developed into a first-class educational institution of 1255 students. It is recognized as one of the best fully-accredited, bilingual schools in the world. One of the school ' s greatest periods of development has been from 1970 to the present under the ufm f of Superintendent George E. Winslow. Thanks to his sound educational background and keen perceptive visions, ASF has shown great strides of progress . As the United States enters upon its third century of inde- pendence and the ASF approaches its golden anniver- sary , plans are underway for even further improvement in the school ' s physical facilities and instructional program. Despite multiple difficulites, the U.S.A. has maintained its status as a world power in democratic principles. By the same token, ASF has overcome seemingly insurmountable problems, and thanks to the friendly Mexican- U.S. relations, it continues to serve as a paragon for the train- ing of young people to assume leading roles in the community in business, social and public service areas.

From the Stan of -the year their job was hampered either by financial means or other unforeseen problems. Their first activity was the paper drive which had great success with the cooperation of all students of the American School. Several tons of paper were collected and a large profit was drawn making the Student Council victorious .

A few of the students who participated in the plays enjoyed presenting them so much that they would eventually like to participate in future plays not only here at the American School, but also in college. 157 At right, Mari Pagola concenuates on a portrait sketch.

Mr. Roland and his group of young followers have been busy with many to make this year especially beneficial for the Art Club. Most of their time was spent in individual projects ranging from rug hooking to mosaic cre- ations. Led by their sponsor, Mr. Craig Roland, and Club President Cristina Andre, the club mem- bers have been encouraged to try their hand at several an variations, or to perfect their favorite areas . The past year has brought several new addi- tions to the diversity of the Art room. A kiln for ceramic work has been added and also a darkroom to develop pictures and experiment with photogra- phy. An cenainly contains something for everyone and the ASF Art Club does a good job of providing just about everything . 158 Mr. Roland, left, pleads for quiet from his enthusiastic (as shown by " Red " Townsend in background) listeners.

As the ASOMEX tournameni came this year, the American School varsity team had never before had such confidence. They had felt their hours of prac- tice, sweat as well as their physical and mental fitness would bring together a championship team. The ASOMEX tournament was a rough time for the varsity team. They had to fight and play their hardest in every game . There was no letting up , or resting for them. Mexico City played a fantastic game, winning the championship game and our varsity team came in a hard played second . 177 The Varsity Basketball Team consisted of young players eager to make a name for themselves and their school. Practices were held for two hours a day for almost seven grueling months . At the end of the season they had only lost to two teams in the two tournaments they had entered. The boys were backed by coaches, teachers, and students like never before . Their spirit was one of good conduct and great expectations . I 6fl had a good season, plus they learned many new tricks that could be applied to the game . Coach Bortoni is shovra shooting a basket.
