Clubs promote school interest Many clubs experienced an in- crease in membership during the 1975 school year, a few almost doubling their size. Radio Club, which was nonexistant for the past two years, was reorganized, and Pep Club, in its second year after an absence, also showed a promising list of members. Various clubs and organizations helped to create more interest in school work, breaking up the monotony of an everyday rou- tine. Clubs were popular whether as an extension of the student ' s quest for knowledge or merely for having a good time. A wide variety of both established and new clubs helped to accomplish this.

. Students seek cultural exchange in language clubs Language students enjoyed many extra activities outside of class through French, Latin, and Spanish clubs. Members of the French Club, headed by Mr. David Phillips, planned a trip to New York. Includ- ed on the agenda was a trip to a French restaurant and plans to see a Broadway play. The annual Christmas party was complete with French delicacies and special cheeses. Guest speakers included Mrs. Sandy Obergfell, who spoke on Christmas in France; Mr. Mike Lepper, who told about his trip to France; and an Indiana University professor who spoke on wine. Latin Club activities included a Saturnalia party which consisted of a dinner, Christmas grab bag, and carol singing. Earlier in the year, Lena Madsen, exchange student from Copenhagen, talked and showed slides of her native coun- try. A bowling party took place in the Spring. Sponsor for the club was Mrs. Audrey Cronkite. Spanish club members, sponsored by Mr. Carsey Gentry, planned such activities as a homecoming float, Christmas fiesta, and an end-of-the- year party. Throughout the year, members enjoyed Spanish and Mexican food, songs, games, and skits. Student speakers included Connie Smith, who spoke on her summer in Mexico, Brenda Hagen- maier and Leslie Federkill, who spoke on trips to Spain, and Lena Madsen, who told of her homeland in Copenhagen, Denmark. 26 Foreign Languages
