Dancing the night away, Pam Watts gets into a tango. Dancing was lust one of the activi- ties at the Finertz ' s annual Halloween party. Finertz French Club Culture Thrives ■ ■ lie John W. North Society for IKJi Cultural and Community Awareness. Could there really be such a thmg? Had you asked any FINERTZ member the answer would have been Yes. Founded in 1966 by Mrs. Ober, Finertz was basically a community service or- ganization that ushered at various cul- tural productions around the county. But community service was not the group ' s only focus. There were many parties, trips, and, of course, weekly meetings. Parties such as the club ' s annual Hal- loween Party, which was thrown at Alana Cortes ' house, were held occa- sionally. The parties weren ' t wild but they were fun! commented Calvin Hao. Though Mrs. Ober advised Finertz, she still had time for other organizations, namely the FRENCH CLUB. Members of the French Club found themselves involved in many activities such as a dinner at Gerard ' s, a local French Restaurant, fund raisers, and outings with their sister club Finertz. For both clubs, the fund raisers, trips, a nd parties all came together to create an exciting and memorable year. I think the fact that both clubs had many combined activities made both more enjoyable to be in, stated Sung Robbins. • •.■ C ' est la Vie!

CSF Key Club Clubs Reach Out I TAT hat does a tragedy in India BdMI have to do with an honor soci- ety m California? This is what the mem- bers of North ' s chapter of the CALI- FORNIA SCHOLASTIC FEDER- ATION learned soon after the catastro- phe m Bhopal, India. The club, which is required to perform one charity effort a year, decided to hold a button sale to benefit the victims of the accidental toxic gas leak that occurred late in 1984. The buttons carried the slogan WE CARE and were sold at school for $.50 and at local shopping center for $1.00. All profits went directly to Bhopal. Community response was very good, stated Becky Blann, We earned total of $130 that we sent to India. Every good boy deserves fudge, or at least some type of sweet. During the holiday season, the KEY CLUB sold several assortments of See ' s Candy in efforts to help in a fund raiser promoted by their sponsor, the Riverside Kiwanis Club. But that was not the group ' s only activity. There were meetings and the weekly luncheons in which members of the club were invited to dine with members of the Kiwanis Club. We all enjoyed the weekly luncheons, said Carrianne Hayslett, Club President. We got a lot out of them. ••• WE CARE . Grace Ruben, Becky Bldnn and Uma Rao sell buttons during lunch to students such as Lela Rao. The members raised over $100 to benefit the victims ol the tragedy in Bhopal, India. 1 78 organizations
