On the home front, the Isabelle Claus Coming from a private, all-girl Catholic school, Isabelle has not been used to the way so much time is spent on sports and extracurricular activities. Foot- ball became her favorite American sport, once she began to understand the game. Isabelle feels the peo- ple are quite friendly here, yet she also feels all people are basically alike. She enjoyed Thanksgiving very much, choosing it as her favorite American holi- day. Her favorite new foods at Headland include chili, sweet and baked potatoes, corn and the all- American hamburger. Another different factor in the school is the fashion of dress. Coming from a uniformed school, Isabelle has not been used to the way students dress-up for classes. Also the girls wear make-up at a much younger age here. Boys in Belguim are said to never wear bright-colored shirts -and shirts with flowers. Isabelle, herself, prefers jeans. Exciting events most evident seem to be the Home- coming festivities and her birthday party sponsored by the A. F.S. U nam een beetje van onze harten en u liet een wienig osu zelf.
