The world is a place for friendship to AFS clubs who seek to experience and understand foreign cul- tures and different ways of life. The motto of the organization sums up their goals in these words: ‘‘Walk Together, Talk Together, All the Peoples of the world.’’ In the words of advisor Lee Hayashi, ‘‘Perhaps as we meet people from all corners of the earth, Ameri- can Field Service can bring about brotherhood and understanding rather than nuclear holocaust. We can and must try.” Lennox had two outstanding representatives in the 1979 AFS Americans Abroad program. Barbara Neyra lived with a family in Sri Lanka, while Christina Chronis spent her summer in Costa Rica. This year Linda Hokanson has been selected as a finalist for a 5 1980 appointment.

Linda Hokanson and Barbara Neyra (1) are so deeply eng- rossed in the annual Christmas party that they are unaware of the slightly quizzical look on Mr. Hayashi’s face. (2) What is more typically American than a Big Mac? Every AFS guest must have one. (3) Although LHS did not have its own AFS student on campus this year, Gabi Camberos and Allen Crowell (standing) enjoyed playing host to students atténd- ing nearby schools.

yee sk --K KEYWANETTES CLUB —Kneeling: Maria Torres, Mayela Lopez, Luz Rivera. Stand- ing: Pam Adams, Yvette Carrasquillo, Min- erva Moreno, Judi Reed, advisor; Maria Angulo, Vivian Sanchez. a A te RO RAO Clubs work toward varied goals Service to school and community is the primary purpose of the Keywanettes. Along with this worthy objective the club seeks to develop initiative and leadership. Although small in membership, the group represents the best in Lan- cer attitude and spirit, for their work is totally unselfish. During the year the Keywanettes made and delivered Thanksgiving cards and valentines to the Centinela Hos- pital. They also organized an Easter party for pre-schoolers in Lennox. A different kind of service was provided when Keywanet- tes acted as baby sitters for all PTA and board meetings for the Lennox Elementary District. As a change of pace these ever busy club members volunteered their services for the special Olympics. President Minerva Moreno was very capably aided by Luz Rivera, vice president; Vivian Sanchez, secretary; and Jackie Palmer, historian. Caring guidance was given by advisor Judi Reed. Led by faculty sponsor C.R. Roberts, the Legal Rights Club is dedicated to building better citizenship by seeking an understanding of the true meaning of the term equal rights. The club is particularly interested in exploring careers re- lated to law and equal rights. Advisor Roberts is concerned with helping members to discover and develop their full potential. 52 Clubs Sponsored by AIRPORT KIWANIS CLUB Off-campus activities included field trips and social events such as theater parties. The group underwrites their acti- vity program with various on-campus promotions such as candy sales. Chess and Backgammon Club—the name says it all. This group enjoys the recreational activity and mental stimu- lation afforded by these games and meets weekly to sharpen their playing skills. Officers for the club were Tim Newton, president; Dennis MacGregor, vice president; and Tony Whitley, secretary treasurer. Mr. John Sahakian served as faculty advisor for the club. Organized last year as the Disco Club, this organization changed its name to the Dance Club in order to better reflect the full range of their interests. The purpose of the group is to provide an atmosphere for self-expression in the form of dance. According to Ms. Catherine Schindler, club advisor, ‘‘Dur- ing the year the club diversified, incorporating a variety of dances, which included Latin dances, the Wiggle, Free Style, the Rock and even Punk Rock. This was an inter- esting innovation.’”” Officers for the Dance Club were Francis Vasquez, presi- dent; Martha Delgado, vice president; and Elizabeth Mon- tijo, secretary.
