Christmas fiesta, highlight of Los Conquistadores Los Conquistadores , the Spanish Club,was a newly formed group on cam- pus with 20 members. Dr. Phyllis Mitch- ell, assistant professor of Spanish, was the club sponsor. The membership was made up of those involved and interested in Spanish. Much of the time spent in their meetings was on drawing up a constitution. The club held a Christmas fiesta with members wearing their own original Spanish costumes. They broke a pinata and scrambled for candy. Next year they hope to have special speakers and films that deal with many different aspects, customs, and cultures of the different Spanish-speaking coun- tries. Club officers were Linda Cooley, junior, president; Susan Hailey, junior, vice-president; Roberta Hoover, junior, secretary; Paul Maxwell, sophomore, treasurer; and Marsha Willoughby, junior, reporter.
