Hobby turns to competition for Branstad Bicyclist Erik Branstad spends many of his free hours pedalling along the countryside. Having first become interested in cycling in elementary school Branstad has been a serious enthusiast the last two yean. Branstad, senior, thinks bicycling is fun as a hobby but also plans to participate in organized races. He stated, I plan to start training this winter by riding 10 to 20 miles per day. His first race will be the May Day Rally. Other races to follow are the Honeysuckle 100, the Fall Festival, and the Hilly 100. Branstad said, The farthest I’ve ridden is 100 km. in approximately 9 houn. Bicycles can range from $300 to $800, and a person can invest a lot in clothing, depending on styles and brands. As Branstad has expressed, Bicycling can be expensive if you get serious about it. Branstad hopes to race competively in college. Not being particularly good in other sports, said Branstad, cycling has been good for my confidence. Bicycling is not only good fun, but good for you, believes Branstad. He feels it exercises the whole body. Everyone should try it, he stated. by John Hatter Keeping his bicycle in top condition, Senior Erik Branstad prepares to start training for spring competition during the winter months. Branstad typically spends 10 to IS hours a week either by training or working on his bicycle. Andy Dovers Croaa Country 1; Track 1.4 Megam S.

Foreign exchange students take on challenge Although thousands of miles away from their families, homes, and friends the seven exchange students kept in touch by letters and telephone calls. I write as often as I can. It's expensive but I call home every fifteen days or so to stay in touch, Chely Padilla, freshman, said. The students became open to new people and ideas although being uprooted from their homes. Carlos Pulley, senior, expressed his reason for coming to America because, I would like to know another culture outside of my own country. Coming to America involved a variety of ways. Chely Padilla and Marissa Hernandez, both freshman, came from Matamoras, Mexico through their church, while Carlos Pulley, also from Mexico, came through AFS International. Mare Rodriguez Del Hoyo's sister stayed in America a few yean ago. The family then invited Mare, senior, to say with them. Juan Navanete, senior, came from Madrid, Spain. East's Brother school. Bildungszentium, Markdorf, Germany, sent Markus Weiss, senior, along with Petra Schulz, senior, who came from the school in Germany. There may be differences between their home towns and Columbus but they got along just fine. The courses are really easy. I used to have fourteen classes so East is a big change for me, Mare Rodriguez Del Hoyo said. While foreigners are studying in Columbus, three Columbus East High School students are studying in Markdorf, Germany. Janice Milhouse and Meghan Kelly, both seniors, are attending East's Sister school. Robert Maple, sophomore, is attending East's Brother school. The exchange programs provided students with a challenge. Those who accepted this challenge learned a lot from their experiences and their love for another language lasts forever. by Sherri Arthur and Lisa Tuttle '1 Angit Oortwu Consulting on hit cl a as schedule with Lou Rohlfing, guidance counselor, Juaa Navarette, senior foreign exchange studeat, gets advice.
