We celebrated Dia de los Muertosn in a typically Spanish fashion, with maca- bre games, skull and crossbone cupcakes, and a ghostly visitor. A pinata and dance marked the gay Christmas fiesta. A colorful scene with songs and dances from Mexico was presented in an assembly by our talented members, Tomasa and Antonia Torrez and Anita Salas, assisted by Johnnit Torrez and Lupe Perez. We ate frijoles and tortillas at a jolly supper preceding a theater party to see Las Cuatro Nlilpasf' In our mannas We planned a bicycling party, our annual picnic, and a fiesta for all the Spanish Clubs of Tulare County.
