 Our foreign exchange student this year is Bjorn Lindvig from Norway. In contrast to our exchange student last year, Leslie MacFadden from Brazil, Bjorn comes from one of the coldest places in the world. Bjorn got into the swing of things aft- er his arrival here by being placed in the Colt marching band. He learned to play the trumpet in his spare time because mu- sic and extra-curricular activities are not provided by his school in Skein, Norway. In regard to dates in Norway, skiing and ice-skating are predominate, while in the summer, swimming and shows are as popular as they are in America. Bjorn is an avid sportsman participating in skiing, soccer, gymnastics, and basketball. They do not have baseball in Nomay. In fact, he saw his first football game at AHS. This year Bjorn is taking civics, speech, English, American History, and band. His schedule this year at AHS is quite different from his previous ones be- cause no electives are allowed in Nor- way. After he returns to Norway, Bjorn plans to major in economics in a college there. After he graduates from AHS, Bjorn will return to his own school where he will still have two years to complete in high school. Bjorn is living with the family of Peter Sparrow who is a senior this year. We sincerely hope that Bjorn has en- joyed his stay at AHS and will succeed in his attempt to better the relationship of America and Norway.
