AMITY RE IEW Left to right: R. Ritvo, R. McQuaid, Fac. Adv., D. Yesner, P. Welch. The Amity Review is a journal of literary expression reflecting a wide range of interests. The student body contributes material to the Review, whose staff is headed by four editors and a faculty advisor, Robert McQuaid. The Review claims no opinion as its own, but instead is governed by the interests of the student body. ll M' FOREIGN REVIEW :......----- ,..---- ' ,...--f-- '7 ,,,,.. ...---e- ' . ,,,,,...,.-- ,-...v-Q--v-- ' The purpose of the Foreign Review is to pub- lish the students' non-assigned creative writing at all levels in the four languages taught at Amity: French, German, Spanish, and Latin.

For the first time, the Trident began its year Hnancially solvent. Despite an in- creased treasury, the staii maintained the offset issue rather than linotype, because oifset affords an opportunity for more pictures and a more casual approach. John Shutkin's second year as Editor-in-Chief provided more experience and organization. Continued emphasis was placed on feature articles and photographs. Boys, and girls' fashion photos were continued. The ninth Miss Trident was crowned at the varsity- faculty basketball game, and Pandemonium II, the second Trident-sponsored rock and roll show was presented in February. As Milton R. Cohen, the faculty advisor says, Happiness is reading the Trident. Everyone reads it, even non-subscribers. SPOTLIGHT The Spotlight, the literary magazine of Amity, contains various forms of writing from the poet, to the critic. Under the guidance of David Baum- gartner, the club reviews all forms of creative writing handed in by the student body. The Spotlight comes out once a a year in the spring. Third Row: M. Lee, J.

LE CERCLE FRANCAIS Le Cercle F rangais est un groupe dietudi- ants qui siinteressent beaucoup aux choses francaises. Guide par Mme. Strauch, ils 'discutent tout en francais, soit la politique, la litterature ou le theatre. Ils invitent les gens qui racontent leurs experiences en France ou qui parlent d'un aspect de la vie frangaise. Parfois ils apprennent des jeux frangaisg parfois ils ecoutent les disques frangaisg ou parfois ils chantent les chan- sons frangaises accompagnes par une gui- tare. C'est un cercle tres actif et tres inter- essant. Y ,J 1 U. l .if im ,. tt f 4 - Second Row.' K. Giovanelly, S. Thomas, J. Froeherg, N. Novak, G. Snyder, L. Shaffer, A. Taffel, D. Grippo, R.

Walking into the room at the beginning of this year, one might hear doleful Russian folksongs or be handed various dittoed materials, mostly dialogues, reminiscent of seventh grade ALM courses. As the class dutifully repeats all the sounds and sen- tences it hears, the question remains: Who is the basso on the record who dictates to them all? Third Row: R. Philips, H. Comen, P. Bronski, S.

French songs, including Dominique, Le Coq Est Mort, and Ou sont Devenus les Fleurs, as well as color slides and talks by students and invited guests provide an inter- esting and entertaining program. Speakers discuss such amusing and diverse topics as French Indians. With such a full and varied program, the French Club is very active and unique. U Fifth Row.' G. Oliveros, R. Flynn, M. Handler, R.
