Page 12 THE JAYHAWK UNESCO One of the most active groups on the campus this year has been the Junior College UNESCO group headed by Charles Hudson, president, and Gayle Granberg, secretary-treas- urer. At Christmas time the Wyandotte County UNESCO council, which is now headed by Miss Christine Wen- rich as president, paid the postage for fifteen packages sent to the small town of Bardenfleth, Germany. February 8, the group sponsored the Sweetheart Hop at which 547.00 was raised for the CARE book fund. Anita Monley and Bill Strumillo reigned over the dance as queen and king of the evening. Students from the Graceland college as well as townspeople attended this gala affair. In early April the Brotherhood Panel from Junior College spoke for the Wyandotte chapter. Praise was given for the interest which junior College has in inter- national relations expressed through UNESCO and the Spanish Fiesta, by the surveyors who interviewed fac- ulty members and students concern- ing accreditation in the North Cen- tral Association. All in all, the UNESCO group has had a very suc- cessful year. Student Governing Body Bill Strumillo headed the Student Goveming Body this year as presi- dent. This is the organization of Junior College which conducts and carries on business affairs concerning the student body and has represen- tatives from every five-hour class. At Thanksgiving time members of the organization took up a collection from students for the children in the orphanage which is located next door to the Horace Mann building. This group also helped the Indigo Imps sponsor the Homecoming parade and dance. Other officers were: Shirley Ashley, vice-president: Martha McWilliams, secretaryg Patricia Ryan, treasurer. Dean Wellemeyer sponsors the group. ACTIVITIES UNESCO Gayle Granberg Charles Hudson STUDENT GOVERNING BODY Shirley Ashley, Bill Strumzllo Martha McWilliams

THE JAYHAWK Page 13 French Club Le Cercle Francais was rather limited in activities this year, owing to its small membership. The French Club meetings were unusual in that they always featured a foreign lecturer, who told some- thing of his country and usually showed films. The Club sang Ce Matin and a verse of Silent Night at the annual Christmas Sing. The French Club was under the guidance of Mary Robohn, president: Martha McWilliams, secretary, and Joan Mueller, program chairman. Mr. Herbert Ragsdale is the faculty sponsor. German Club The German Club, composed of both beginning and advanced lan- guage students, held its first meeting of the year on October 11 in the annex. At that time the new mem- bers were initiated and the officers installed. The officers were: Richard Beilharz, president: Ed Howard, vice- presidentg Vernon Carrell, secretary, and Dora Mae Ricord, treasurer. During the year the club sponsored a project to send packages, each containing pencils, a notebook, cray- ons, a wash cloth, hard candy, and soap, to 275 school children in the town of Bardenfleth, Germany, as Christmas gifts. The club also had, in the Home- coming parade, a float representing a castle in the Alps, with students attired in typical German costume. At their Christmas party, held De- cember 20, the members exchanged gifts which were given to a charity organization after the party. The annual dinner was held jan- uary 10, at St. Luke's Lutheran Church. Former German students were guests. One of the last meetings of the German club featured a talk on Swiss customs and impressions of America by Dr. Christian Schmid and his wife, Gisela, of Switzerland. The couple are exchange students, now studying and teaching at K.U. Miss Violetta Garrett is sponsor of the club. I FRENCH CLUB STANDING: Cathryn Gunther, Lura Lu Daniels.
