To inform students, Steve Waldman reads notices over the PA system. Light Snow, Much Activity Characterize Winter Snow was rare and the winter mild while students busied themselves in a wide assortment of activities. At Mittens and Muffs, the turnabout dance, couples were entertained by Freddy and the Extensions. A skat- ing pond and sweet shop enhanced the ski chalet flavor of this winter dance. Combined choruses and the orchestra performed a medley of carols and other holiday pieces at the Christ- mas Concert. Mrs. Henschen, a private voice teacher, joined them in Gloria and Hallelujah Chorus. The following week, Mr. Alleman, DHS speech teacher, presented the first of a series of assemblies. His lectures and four short films captured the attention of his aud- ience as he explained the planning and production of television commercials. Folksinger Win Stracke celebrated Illinois' Sesquicentennial at the second assembly. Incor- porating fact with humor, Mr. Stracke related frontier history and sang songs of those times. As a high point of the winter sports season, NHS sponsored a faculty-senior boys basketball game. Both sides supplied skilled teams, enthusiastic cheerleaders and corrupt referees. Despite the efforts of a colorful faculty team, the seniors won the game. Leslie Davis, Kent Smalter and Mitch Turbov aid faculty team captain Mr. Alleman in leading a cheer. Blocking Mr. Eichstaedt during the NHS senior-faculty basketball game is one objective that Jeff McDonald misses. WINTER 19

l Nick Glen shares his slides of Swaziland with interested students AFS, Rotary Club Involve Seven in Exchanges Deerfield participated in the Rotary Student Exchange of Rotary Clubs International for the first timethis year. Anne Fish left Deerfield to spend a year in Sweden, while Karina Rosenborg and Lenie Herrema came to DHS from Sweden and the Netherlands respectively. To complete this international group came AFS-spon- sored students: Nick Glen from Swaziland, Deniz Taner from Turkey and Guisela Cheche Araya from Chile. AFS was nothing new to Deerfield students who had helped Share the Fare by buying tags and taffy apples for several years. International understanding was fostered by living and working with students from the four corners of the globe. Each exchange student was carefully chosen by his sponsoring groups in order to find students who would most benefit from such an experience. Essays, questionaires, exams and conferences led finally to de- partures by land, air and sea from familiar homelands to distant continents. Upon arrival in their temporarily adopted countries, all six exchange students first toured a large city. Ann explored Stockholm and the visitors to America spent some time in New York. After the school year was over, a more comprehensive bus tour was in store for these international guests. iw. ..
