Our First AFS Chapter Dear Friends, My home is not in this country, but in a town called Stafford. Stafford is about the size of Rockford and is situated in the potteries in the Northwest of England. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not really English but was born in a steel town in South Wales, am an only child, and celebrated my eighteenth birthday last Election Day. Before I came to Hononegah, I attendedaschool of 750, but there was one big difference between Stafford Girls' High and Hononegah: we were all girls! We attend high school from the age of 11 through 18, seven years of wearing the same uniform. When I go home, I shall start my three-year course at Queen Elizabeth College in Birmingham University to become a physical therapist. Since I was the first AFS student here, I had quite a few misgivings but I needn'thave worried. You accepted me as one of you almost immedi- ately. I hope I came up to everything you expectedg you certainly came up to and surpassed my ideas of American youth. When your next AFS students come, they'll have a good time because Hononegah is the greatest school and has the greatest kids in the U.S. If you're ever in England, please come and see me. Thank you doesn't seem enough but that's all there is to say. Goodbye is too sad so I'll just say Au revoir. Taffy fr YI Amxwjs ,Ji S, Faculty members of the Students' Abroad Committee were Mr. Hamilton, Mr. Andreoli and Mrs. Ghiglierl.

Barbara Taffy Williams I . 3 'N Q -Qi X X .--- LQU Do ll Through a hard-working Student Council and active cooperation of the community,Hononegah's first American Field Service Chapter was launched. The first foreign exchange student to come to Hononegah was 18-year old Miss Barbara Williams of Stafford, England. Although none of our students were chosen to go abroad, we are all hoping for the best in the future. Those who had applications sent to New York were Lorna Granzow, Nancy Kays, Jim Chamberlain and Kathi Daume. The regular AFS meetings were scheduled for every second Tuesday. They are led by the officers: Mrs. Ivan Baucom, Presidentg Mrsge Fred -Troughton, Vice-presidentg Mrs. Denzil Showers, Secretary, and Mr. Don Geddes, Treasurer. In January a membership drive was held and ezgchange students from all over the county were invited to attend. Also during the drive, shares of stock were sold to students, teachers, and all who wished to participate in the program. 25
