RETAILERS STAGE BIG YEAR Many Proiects Planned for Enioyment of Club The t'Future Retailers of America are staging several large projects for the year. Besides adopting the use of a pin, symbolizing all cooperative sales classes of Ohio, the retailers are at- tending, as a group, a regional meeting on the campus of Ohio State. Also at- tending this meeting will be similiar groups from other Ohio schools. There, comparison of working conditions, ways, and ideas can be exchanged. A rummage sale to secure funds for a banquet for employers is planned for the end of the semester. Each retailer invites his employer to be his guest at the banquet. Another highlight event is the taking of kodachrome pictures of the retailers on the job in downtown stores. These pictures will serve as a memory to the prodigious days spent in school.

TUDENT 'l'El.l. OF CULCMBIA Traveler Shows Spanish Club Movies of South America Many students at Springfield High School, seeing a bright future in South America, are studying Span- ish. The Spanish Club was formed because stu- dents wanted to know mo1'e about South America and Spain than the language. Frequently guest speakers address the club and relate the life and customs of a certain country. Included in the clubs various activities are the singing of Spanish songs and the playing of Spanish gamesg the members enjoyed particularly group singing led by Arthur Clarke. Barbara Barth and Natalie Clark enter- tained the club at Christmas time with several Spanish songs, and refreshments were served in the cafeteria. Afterwards, Thomas Fails was victorious in a Question and Answer program. By a process of elimination he defeated all Challengers and ran off with the prize of war stamps. Senror Bernardo Trujillo, a student at Wittenberg College, told about activities in his native country, Columbia. Mrs. A. C. Link showed the club motion pictures of her trip on the Columbus around South America. She described scenes pictured with great detail and told of the native people. The Spanish Club has succeeded in arousing in- terest in the as yet virtually undeveloped resources of South America. They have heard first hand about the experiences of travelers who have gone from end to end of the great continent to the south. Music of these nations has been enjoyed by all and reports have been read about the activities in vari- ous countries. Although some geography and his- tory are studied in class, this club is devoted almost entirely to that. Mr. Clarence Smith and Mr. M. M. Racer serve as very capable advisers to the club. In the past years they have made the Spanish Club one of the best in the school. Spanish Club Action: Thomas Fails, Phil Kepple, Phoebe Diehl, Justine Carlson, Jonni Smith, Allan Gould, Marilyn McKenzie, Arthur Clarke, Carl Forrester.
