MISSING THE TARGET. With emphatic ole's coming from fellow members, Kristi Wiedericn makes a somewhat successful attempt to smash a traditional Spanish pinata dur- ing a Spanish Club meeting. Spanish Club president Andi Lee and other club members tried to make their last meeting as au- thentic as possible by holding the meeting in a Mexican restaurant, the El Chaparral Inn, located in Ballantine.

Foreign language dubs introduce unusual tastes axrci customs OREIGN FLAVORS 3 Tacos, pretzels, and crepes! Food may have been the rea- son for the large enrollment in foreign language classes at Senior High; foreign language clubs thrived. From Spanish Club taco day to German Club pretzels during Wednesday lunch periods, foreign lan- guage club activities centered largely on bringing the given culture into the school. French Club's activities in- cluded making traditional French food several times dur- ing the year. We usually made crepes once a semester, junior Mara Reisman, French Club pre- sident, said. While we ate, I gave presentations about my trip to France. German Club's major project was selling authentic soft Ger- man pretzels at lunch time. We usually sell a pretty good number of pretzels, jun- ior Erik Erben said, and some- times we eat all the leftover pretzels during class. All three foreign language clubs celebrated Christmas with foreign customs, though not necessarily their own. We have several banquets every year,usually with Mexi- can food, Spanish Club mem- ber Chou Cha said, but this year wc had our Christmas banquet at the Mayflower of China! German Club members spent free time in November and December peddling tradi- tional German advent calen- dars to fellow students. The thing that makes our advent calendars popular is the fact that they have choco- late in every window, Erben said. French Club celebrated the holidays by selling candy canes that were delivered to students during school. We couldn't sell the broken candy canes, so we kept them to cat ourselves, Reisman said. A lot of them con- veniently got broken. Spanish Club even staged a foreign initiation of officers. The new officers got to try to break a pinata, Cha said. When it broke, everyone scrambled and stuffed the candy into their pockets. On B-Day, French Club brought a little of their chic culture to the carnival with a French (Club) kissing booth. It (the booth) wasn't a great success, but it was really fun, Reisman said. I think the name of it scared people. The foreign language dubs gave members a chance to continue their understanding of other languages and cul- tures while getting involved in the school, and, as Cha said, to pretty much just have fun.
