Germans perform in convo i h A variety of convos were sched- uled for the student body, and a special attraction was a musical performance by the German stu- dents from Erlangen. There was a startling two-hour convo on birth defects, a performance by the Lazer Band, a frisbee demonstra- tion, and an informative lecture by Woody Hayes. Students were acquainted with a Pepsi represen- tative speaking on “The Spirit of Challenge” and finally, a gas re- source convo. There were a few changes in the pep sessions this year. Mrs. Howell and the cheerleaders were in charge. For Football Homecoming the cheerleading squad collected money from the students to see whether Mr. Mathis or Dr. Wirtz would get a pie in the face. 1 .

What would it be like to spend your senior year of high school in a foreign country? Ask Senior Heidi Freckelton who participat- ed as an American Field Service exchange student. Heidi spent a year in Kiruna, Sweden, where she attended Hjal- mar Lundbogmskolan gymnasi- um (high school). From shopping and hiking in the mountains to skiing and watching the slaughtering of rein- deer, Heidi and her family had a lot of unforgetable experiences. After spending a week touring Stockholm, she returned there at the beginning of July to meet all AFS students for the trip home. Senior Laural Scelonge also had a taste of a different culture. She was an American Field Service exchange student who spent her summer in Triste and Cortina D’Ampezzo, Italy. In Triste, the first part of her trip, she stayed with Mr. and Mrs. Tullio D’Angolo, their son, Anrea and daughter Suzanne. Thirteen- year-old Suzanne was the only family member who spoke Eng- lish. But luckily in Cortina, her second Italian family of Mr. and Mrs. Giorgio Viola and their son, Marzio, everyone spoke English. The next best thing to being there must be meeting someone from there. Such was the case with Paul Wagner, the third AFS student from Diekirch, Luxem- bourg. 18 Forcij:
