Che ?re14cl1 61116 Twice monthly the strains of the French national anthem are sung earnestly by Le Cercle Francais. This club was originated to better acquaint the French students with the language and customs of France. Thus the entire meeting is conducted in French. Entertainment for the meetings is pro- vided by the members or by a short movie. The highlights of the past year have been the two tours at the Art Institute to view special exhibits of the works of Cezanne and Matisse, and a farewell party given in honor of Mr. johnson, a student teacher from the University of Iillinois.

U15 plllfl Amcrivau Klub The Pan-American Club has a total membership of 54. Every semester the club organizes a committee which in turn selects a group of talented students. These girls and boys work together to create a skit and then display their talents in it. This play is held on Columbus Day and also on Pan-American Day. At this time the Club demonstrates to the students and faculty of Bowen High the real meaning of these days. The members not only enjoy themselves in this undertaking, but take great satisfaction in knowing that they put across to others the principles involved in these great days. During the Frolics of 1952, the Pan-American Club proudly presented a South-American skit with joe Garcia and Bill Dawson taking the parts of Dean Martin and jerry Lewis as the main characters. Carmen Miranda, the Beautiful Dancing Girls and the Singing Waitresses were a few of the many acts that were represented. The Pan-American Club will always be one of the most active and worthwhile Balli, Irma Bolek, Richard Carlson, George Carrillo, Margaret Cortez, Rachel clubs in Bowen.
