summer exchcmge student Eddie Kizer was chosen from four finalists by the American Field Service to be Hudson High School'sfirst student to spend the summer in a foreign country. Eddie arrived in Rotterdam, Holland, on June 27, 1959, and took a train directly to Germany. For eight adventure-filled weeks, Eddie lived in Germany with Alfred and Ann Kiessling, his adopted mother and father. Also in his family were two brothers, Bernd, 14, and Reinhardt, 11. Their home was lo- cated in the northern part of Bavaria, a half mile from the Russian zone of Germany. This was a great opportunity and a valua- ble experience for Eddie. He was able to visit many different cities and places in Europe and learn some of the customs of the European people. ln Eddie's own words, It was the greatest experience in my life, one that I shall never forget. It makesone realize what a'truly great country we live in today. Above is Eddie and his mother, Mrs. David Kizer At the right is Eddie and his German family.
