3 W if C Awalt's mighty French Club was a great success this year. It achieved its main goal, which is not the promotion of la culture francais, as believed by most people, but friendship. All members became good friends and had much fun together. And what fun there was! There was a wild pic- nic at Frontier Village with all you could eat and all you could ride for free, courtesy of the club's meager treasury. The first major activity at school was the Halloween Penny Carnival, designed to give the youngsters a treat. It was a great success, with a seemingly unending line of kids waiting to tourthe House of Horror. Towards Christmas the Club played a very active part in the Santa Claus Exchange program. A three week bake sale earned enough money for a huge spending spree to buy new toys for the needy people of Mountain View. The last major project of the French Club was their greatest: the Mardi Gras. Their third annual Mardi Gras was held in early March. Games, prizes and food were the trappings as merriment filled the air in this costumed carnival with a New Orleans theme. Such fun will never be duplicated! U The club relaxed for the remainder of the year more of its parties like the one they had at New Years. Beach trips have been planned for the summer. The French Club is open to all fun seekersg you don't have to know a word of French. Those who weren't members this year don't know what they missed. 157

LANGUAGE CLUBS SPONSOR MARDI GRAS AND OKTOBERFE T German Club Activities The German club started off the year by taking a bus to the Pleasonton Oktoberfest. There was food and dancing and everyone had a good time. Then we had our own Oktoberfest. Everyone had fun planning and working on this event, and it was a big success. A week later, we had a din- ner party at Frau Meckel's house, to eat all the leftover food. That was a real experience, trying to fit 45 people into a four room apartment! Activities cooled down after the Oktoberfest. We had an ice-skating party in November with a party at the school afterwards. During the second semester we went to the German Culture Center in San Francisco, and to dinner at Schroder's German Restaurant.

GI RLS SPGRTS CLUB Girls sports club is one of the most active on campus. Usually about 50 girls compete in hockey, tennis, basketball, volleyball, badminton, gym- nastics, and softball. The purpose of the club is to encourage sports participation at Awalt and against other schools and to improve sports skills and to enjoy sports. The girls had a good season in hockey and did well in tennis. In fact, the Awalt tennis team came in first place under the instruction of Miss Bonnie Davenport. Some extraordinary events carried out by G.S.C. were a mother-daughter tennis toumament, a table tennis toumament, and a mother daughter recreaction night last spring.
