L'Alliance Francaise Adds French Culture to Escambia L'Alliance Francaise at Escambia High School is a scholas- tic organization for French students. Under the direction of Miss Nell Berrey, the club undertakes many activities during the school year. These activities are aimed at bringing a little of the French culture into the school. One of the most suc- cessful events is the French bread sale. Two 3100.00 scholarships are given at the end of the year to two deserving members of the club. The recipients are de- termined by their grades, participation, and enthusiasm in French. Winners last year were Debbie Maxwell and Myra Fell.

Junior Council Contributes to Ideas of Junior Class Among the purposes of the Junior Council were to contrib- ute to and carry out civic and academic ideas of the junior class. The major activity of the year is sponsoring the J unior-Se- nior Prom. Many fund raising projects such as doughnut, all purpose cleaner, magazine and booster button sales were un- dertaken to finance it. Very successful, the Prom was held at the Municipal Auditorium May 12, with the f'Ounce of Timei' band as entertainment. Although our primary function is to finance and sponsor the Junior-Senior Prom, we also participated in the commu- nity activities such as the Massing of the Colors, Bike-a-Thon for Cystic Fibrosis, and Seville on Safety at Seville Square, explained Kerry Poole, Junior Council president. He added, representatives of Junior Council operated also the Check-in and information booth for the Cerebral Palsy Walk-a-Thon held March 3.

Mr. Kenneth Andrews Sponsor Das Deutsche Verein Promotes Study of German Cultur Originally the German Honor Society, Das Deutsche Ve- rein combines the linguistic skills and cultural aspects of modern Germany. Among the group's activities were fund raising activities, the Cerebral Palsy Walk-a-thon, and a school improvement project. Das Deutsche Verein is unique among language organizations at Escambia in that it is an in- terest club rather than an honor society and all of its officers are taking a course in German. This was the most successful year for the German Club as more members have been active. This gives the group great encouragement for the future. According to the club's chancellor, James Lake, We are attempting to expand the German language program at Es- cambia. The club would like to do more to present German as the exciting, alive language that it is, rather than have it appear in the old context of the old Germanyf' Georgia Leaver, treasurer, collected jacket money from Bob Olsen, president, during Das Deutsche Verein meeting. 88
