Haruko and France had a ball with our good old American snowball fights. Bob Roesler spent the summer months before his senior year in the Philippines. Here he is shown chatting with some of the friends he made. The American Field Service strives to promote friendship and understanding among the countries of the world. The teenagers selected are 'ambassadors of good will.' The two foreign students at JM this year were France Donon of France and Haruko Egusa of Japan. Students of JM found it was very interesting and educational to hear the two girls talk about their countries, especially when they compared America to their home- lands. They were always asked, What do you like best about America? France and Harulco seemed to readily enjoy their stay here. We only hope that we gave them a better understanding of America. A.F.Q.
