The best way her experience can be related is in her own words: On May 28th I received news that I would be one of the nine American Field Service exchange students to Colombia, South America. During the ten weeks, I was a teenage ambassador, spreading good will, friendliness, and understanding to our Latin Neighbors. I lived in Cali, Colombia and despite the extreme poverty and problems, I always found the Colombian people warm, gracious, optimistic, and friendly. Many times, the summer was difficult and challenging, but living and sharing ideas and customs with the Colombian people was really the only way to truly spread peace and under- standing. 26 MARIE WOLL

Because of the work of the American Field Service Club, another foreign student has been able to attend Attleboro High School. Graduating with the class of 1966 is Karl Kurbel. Horn in Geisling- en, Germany, Karl later moved to his present home in Ulm, a town about twenty miles from his birthplace. After finishing four years of elementary work, Karl attended the gymnasium, a nine-year course corresponding to the American high school. After the first four years, a German student may either go to middle school, or continue five more years in the elementary, or matriculate to the gymnasium. Karl was in the eighth grade at the latter institution before com- ing to Attleboro. Karl was one of four chosen from a total of 36 who applied to the German affiliate of the A.F.S. He came by plane to the United States, arriving at Kennedy Airport in New York. He came to Boston by bus, where he was met by his American family , the Nelsons, of 37 Prospect Street. Karl will remain in Attleboro until early July. Later in the month, he and other A.F.S. students will take a three week bus tour of the United States, after which Karl will return to Germany. We, the class of ' 66, extend to Karl Kurbel our best wishes and we hope his stay in the United States has been most enjoyable.
