For years the mispronunciation of such well- known French phrases as Parlez-vous francaise? has been the password dis- tinguishing French students. However, at French Club meetings Mrs. Dorothy Meske has endeavored to teach the members how to speak French more fluently and with less self-consciousness. French ofhcials may change, but the French Club's have remained the same this year. Robert Parker is President, Maureen Sutherland, Vice-president, Adrienne Coe, Secretary, David Thomas, Treasurer.

EL CIRCULO ESPANOL . . . Como esta usted? Hola! These are only a few of the greetings heard at meetings of the Spanish Club. Formed to promote an interest in the Spanish language and culture extending beyond the classroom. The members of the Spanish Club sing songs and learn Spanish dances. Through the outside contact with the language and Spanish-speaking coun- tries, Spanish students have learned that there is more to a language than the grammar and the verb conjugations. There is a great deal of culture which may help each person later on in his life. Seniors active in this club are: Patricia Pick, Philip Schlesier, and Maria Sepcich. LIBRARY COUNCIL . . .
