' los Amigos ' ' Spanish Club Hosts Timely Menudo The Spanish Club, true to form, started off the year with the biggest, most hilarious initiation party ever, stated Mrs. Sernc, club sponsor. Then they continued their activities by selling menudo during the district basl etball tournaments, set glowing luminarias around the high school sidewalks, decorated the halls with streamers made of Christmas cards and held a tamale party afterwards. Members sold pop- sides and donuts at noon and raffled off 100 gallons of gas. For their last activity of the year, they held a sock-hop in the auditorium with the music by Starliners. There were prizes and games in which all the student body partici- pated. The club ended the year with their annual banquet and dance party held at the Town House Hotel in Silver City.
