Fund drive sponsors Foreign students Every year for many years Seaholm has put on a drive to raise money to sponsor AFS-YFU students for a year in the United States. In past years a drive in which each homeroom had an individual project ranging from car washes to rattles was held. lt was only last year that the AFS-YFU com- mittee organized a candy sale with the hopes of gaining greater profits with less chaos. This year marked the second annual candy sale making the individual homeroom proiects optional. Candy representatives from each homeroom met with representatives from the Heath Candy Company and the Ross Candy Company to try the candy and to choose which candy Seaholm would sell. As last year, the Heath candy was chosen. On March 10, the candy arrived and the olticial sale began. Enthusiastic salesmen sold over 310,000 worth of candy, of which Seaholm retains a forty-one per cent profit. Leading the sales, the sophomores sold over half of the total amount of candy sold by all three classes. With such ambitious salesmen the candy sale will continue to be a success. Helping unload the boxes of Heath candy from the truck are volunteers from study halls, three of whom were Tom Louzecky, John Rifenbark, and Gordie Lamb.

Sue Bauer and her German sister Frauke Vertein pause from their sightseeing for a moment on the resort island of Sylt during Sue's YFU summer abroad. SHS'ers go abroad For many years Seaholm, through the AFS-YFU programs has sponsored foreigr exchange students in America. Equally important, however, is the fact tha American students from Seaholm are sen abroad during the summer. Each yeai juniors and some seniors are able to be exchange students in foreign countries. This past summer twenty-seven iunior and seniors spent their summer months ir such countries as Sweden, Denmark Spain, Germany, France, Switzerland and Japan, where they stayed with c family, living as they do and learning their customs and ways of life. For many the summer was not spent entirely in one country, but rather traveling with thei foreign families or vacationing in othe parts of Europe. The YFU students found all their ex periences greatly rewarding and memor able. All felt that by learning of othe countries, they gained a understanding of the world and international problems Vacationing with her French family in sunny Spain Barb Hall clowns with her sister, Sylvi Piffara , o r azz ,vs 'X vt
