IVIBASSADOR sisters, these exchange students. They live with us and share our daily life for an entire school year. They are also presented the opportunity to see many American landmarks of our vast country at the end of their stay in America, which is a part of the A.F.S. program. Since this program is commonly called the 'Exchange Programfl naturally there must be an exchange on our part. Our American students are given the opportunity to apply for that part of the program which pennits them to spend the summer abroad, living with a family just as our foreign friends do here. CARLO LAZZARINO, Italy I am Carlo Lazzerino, exchange student from Italy to Kenwood. I would, first of all, like to tell you a little bit about myself, my family, and my home in Italy. I live in Turin, Italy, which is located in the northern part of the country near the foothills of the Italian Alps. From my apartment bedroom I can see a long chain of snow-capped mountains. The proximity of these mountains naturally enhances winter sports like sledding and skiing. On week-ends I spend my free time in these mountains, very high above sea level, breathing the clean, fresh air and admiring the beauties of nature which makes me feel that it is wonderful to be alive. During the summer months, I often visit the Italian Riviera, Italyls summer resort and make trips on my racing bicycle into the country with a group of boys who also find excitement in racing. Italy, one of the oldest countries in the world, abounds in Art, History, Geography. and Architecture and because of this, has proven to be a tourist favorite. I attend the Liceo Scientifico High School which stresses mostly academic subjects such as Mathematics the sciences, History and Philosophy. The schooling period covers thirteen years broken up into five years of elemen- tary school, three years of middle school, and five years of high school. At home I am in the fourth year of hivh school and must attend one more year when I return. My plan at the present time is to attend the University lbf Turin and study engineering. I am very glad to be here in the U. S. and I want sincerely to thank the A.F.S. which made it possible, the Ralph H. Davis family, my American family, particularly Mrs. Audrey Davis, who is the sweetest mom I could have. My views about American people have changed in the past nine months and are still changing, but now I know that there is not any basic difference between people of different countries, but only a superficial difference in cus- toms. I hope I will be able to see some of you again, and so I do not bid you Addio,7' but uarriverdercif' CARLO LAZZARINO Via G. Spano I Torino, Italy The American Field Service was organized during the First World War to aid the wounded on the battle- field. This proved to be so greatly advantageous as a means of promoting friendly relations between coun- tries, that it was continued after the war only in a different manner. The program, as it is now conducted, deals specifically with the exchange of students from foreign countries. We, the students in America, our parents, and friends, supplement the work done by the A.l7'.S. by taking into our homes, as our brothers and
