They planned ali sorts of activi- ties — a party that included a tradi- tional Pirtanta, and boo-bags” dur- ing the holidays. They American- ized themselves and sold popcom during the Homecoming festivities. The Spanish culture is quite inter- esting and many students find it sim- ply marvelous. Someday the Club hopes to travel to Mexico, Spain, and other Spanish countries to get a taste of the real culture. The members this year have been both inspirational as well as dedi- cated to the club. Foreign exchange students Adriana Paz and Esteban Cuello enjoyed the people, places, and Italian pizza that exist in the Unit¬ ed States. When asked to sum up her views of the Spanish club, president Kajal Mehta remarked, ' Spanish Club es numero uno! ' ' ELLAS son AMIGASI! Officere Kajal Mehta Becky Bodenheimer Paula Vasquez and Lee Walker. SPANISH CULTURE AMERICAN STYLE!

A CLOSE-UP view of Washington D.C. A BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS? No, it ' s the Executive Office Building, viewed from the Jefferson Memorial. Envy is putting it mildly when the students who participated in Closeup retum after a weeK in Movember in Washington, D. C, — during school time. There s always excitement in their voices. Snatches of converation from this year s group — ' I thought $800 was too much to spend just to see the government at work. But wow! I saw Sen. Ted Kenne- dy in the flesh — and he s short. ... Its a beautiful City. I see why its the capital. And we went to the Smithsonian. Whoa, that mammoth in the lobby of the Matural History Museum was awe- some! Well, we went to Williamsburg and looked first-hand at ali of Mrs. Webb s and Mr. Pardue s architecture slides. They ll be pleased. LET S DO THE ZOO! The giraffe is an unusual sight since we have no city zoo. The Washington Zoo also houses the famous Chinese pandas. AWESOME! The Washington Monument is an impressive sight. Ride to the observation deck and view the city as Banneker and Latrobe envisioned it.
