I Dancing With An Accent .W lt's Wednesday night. After arriving in the Faculty parking lot, the distant sound of music is heard coming from the doors of CS. When one approaches the words and rhythm become louder, yet the words are alien and incomprehen- sible, unless one knows what is taking place. After one enters the room, he hears laughing and talking in a strange foreign language. When entering into the meeting. one finally realizes they are in the German Club. German Club, is a group of approximately sixty students who join together for a purpose. They meet for either the purpose of cooking, dancing, guest speakers, and more, but that is just the fun part of each meeting. All meetings are based on the effort to let all German students learn and par- ticipate in a cultural experience which is unable to be taught in a regular classroom period. This year's advisor is Frau Driscoll, and the officers are President Chris Zimmerman, and three Vice Presidents con- sisting of: Paul Llstach, Dana Armstrong, and Kelly Peter- son. These four people work together in order to change their club's format so it will improve from the previous year. Activities this year were cooking, where they made pret- zels.in early March, a Foreign Language fair, and at each meeting they were taught new German dances. Each meeting is different than the others, making all of them new experiences for those who attend. For all German students and German Club members: Wir wunschen euch allen einen schonen Sommer und ein arfolgreiches nachstes Jahr. Auf Wiedersehen! i 'l .

.3-fl, Linder the direction of lvliss Karuko Yagi, the French Club was more active than ever before. The club had a poetry contest, met for ice cream, had a pot luck dinner and saw a French film. These students also plan to organize a foreign Foreign Affairs festival. They will invite the German Club and Spanish Club to play games and have food from each of the countries. In the Club the students are encouraged to speak French, which improves their foreign vocabulary. QQ-3 2. first rovv: N. Sadal, L. Soudreaux, J. Jordan, INA. Crtega, E. lvlartinelli, K. Pinheiro, I..
