Page 18 Probably the most popular of all Spanish flavored dances is the Mexican Hat Dance. Senor Quijas and Mary Acosta perform it to the letter at the October International Fes- tival, which was sponsored by the tional Club. Blending the exotic rhythm of Spanish lands into the atmosphere of midwestern America, Prisciliano Quijas, Delores Lozano, Fasistino Babies, and Jackie Lozano dance the El or Mexican Hawk Dance. Quijas is a senior in architectural ing, and Fasistino is a junior in the School of Business. These University students are seen demonstrating a group of their native dances at a meeting of the International Club, an organization composed of overseas students who are attending the University.

Page 17 Here are four Latins who have trans- planted a bit of Central America into their Jayhawker setting at 534 Ohio. Roberto Alphonso Torres, Luis Bianchini, and Antonio Mettewie are from Colombia, Costa Rica, and Boliva, respectively. Luie is amazed by American girls with their blue jeans and shirt tails; and yelled beat Colo- rado so long at the Nightshirt Parade that he lost his voice. Al Torres, who some day hopes to be a doctor, has taken all his higher education at Kansas. Bob Alla ' n is doing grad- uate work in Spanish and some day hopes to return to Colombia to teach. The scholarly- looking young engineer on the right is An- tonio Mettewie, president of the International Club, who plans to turn engineering efforts here at Kansas into hydro-electric power plants in Colombia. Right after I landed in Los Angeles and had my baggage inspected, the customs official slapped me on the shoulder and said, ' Boy, now you can do anything you want to; you ' re in a free country ! ' —that was really wonderful, grinned Alfred Sim. Now, after a year in the U. S., including a trip East this summer on which he enjoyed seeing everything from Niagara Falls and the Yankee Stadium, to the Davis Cup Tournament, he still thinks so. Alfred himself is quite a tennis player and is entered in the University fall tennis tournament. A business administration major, he hails from Swatow, a town about 150 miles from HongKong. Having previously attended the University of Shanghai, he chuckles as he says, You know, K. U. was recom- mended to me by a graduate of M. U. With a wide smile, a vanishing accent, and a friendly Hi, there, Baaquer Shirozi can tell you about almost anything pertaining to Jay- hawkers or Sunflowers. Beginning his study of English at fourteen and coming to this country from Bombay, India, thirty-three months ago, Baaquer well might qualify as an authority on the American college student. Disregarding his strong dislike for shotguns, Baaquer has enjoyed his studies here at Kansas in the Architectural Engi- neering department. He says that in India the professors are set aside from the students and do not allow their pupils to address them as equals. Baaquer was also amazed by the number of young instructors who are members of the Kansas faculty. Being a loyal football rooter and an active participant in boxing, Baaquer is an ardent sports fan. After he receives his diploma in June, this dapper young Indian plans to re- turn to Bombay and practice architecture.
