The club meets every two weeks in Mr. Sostad's -Spanish classroom, talks over difficulties with homework, and plans out after school activities. ln December, they attended a special con- ference at Stanislaus State University for all surrounding Aztec clubs from Downey, Modesto l-ligh, Turlock, l-lughson, and Riverbank chapters. Flepre- sentatives from LJ. C. Serkeley and Stanislaus State were invited to prepare the Aztec students for college entrance. All was not work for many activities centered around fun and social life.

As one attends each meeting he learns more of the inroads that the Spanish culture has had on our country and state. Visits to San Fran- cisco ballet was one of the highlights of the club's activities. Another special event was the annual Spanish dinner prepared by lvlrs. Rancano. Each student participated and brought the ingredients for the meal. Flaella was served with rice, shrimp, lobster, clams, chicken. and mussles. Teri Nguyen enjoyed the mint lemonade after she, one of the few, choked on the mussles. She stated, I'm aller- gic to seafood! Following the great paella meal, each member was served a portion of flan. A sweet custard-like pudding. .Jeff Robinson replied, lt was fabulous. I could eat it every day.
