FRENCH CLUB The French Club aims to further the cultural benefits of the study of French in high school. It has as its purpose the increase of intelligent interest in, and respect for, the customs and ideals of the French people. The club accomplishes this by programs consisting of movies, slides, reports by students, and talks given by people who have travelled in France. Practice in speaking and understanding the French language is also afforded at meetings by dramatizations and the playing of French games. The French Club is directed by Miss Tuve. The officers this year are Tom Roddy, president; Kenneth Malmborg, vice-president; Beverly Stelzer, secretary-treasurer. GERMAN CLUB Radio has long been considered one of the important peace promoters for, by sponsoring Travel Talks and programs such as “Americans All—Immigrants All,” it has helped to establish a better international understanding and a feeling of good will among the nations of the world. Robbinsdale’s German Club is like radio in this one respect—it, too, is trying to establish better relations with a foreign nation; for its purpose is to develop an interest and understanding in the cultural background of the German language. Singing German songs, eating German foods, playing German games, and corresponding with German students are the ways in which the club has tried to fulfill its purpose. Three movies on life in Germany, a travel talk by Miss Katter, who visited Germany last year, and pictures of Germany have played an important part on the program of the club this year. Miss Celia Thoma is the originator and supervisor of the group. Verna Anderson was elected president of the Deutchers this year with Dave Hartig as the vice-president, and Juanita Vos serving as the secretary-treasurer. Page 28

The seniors held a class meeting, and with a practically unanimous vote decided to undertake the yearbook. Accordingly Mr. Reichert agreed to supervise the project and selected a staff from those who had signed up as willing to work on the book. Jeanette Hughes was chosen as business manager, and Klizabeth Youssi as editor. After much discussion and violent sifting of ideas Radio was chosen as a suitable theme and the staff went to work. Jack Levine, Tom Roddy and Katherine Cooper solicited advertising from all the merchants in and out of town to help balance the budget. Dorothy Arnold, as the assistant editor, helped with layouts and writing. Ruby Haugen and Keith Havens drew and planned division pages, the cover and special features. The snapshots were taken by Audrey Bork and Bob Bechler. Mary Kahle and Mary Jane Williams had the difficult job of getting the seniors to take pictures and of tagging the pictures after they were taken. Page 29
