Bread, Carnations Financial ' Items ' For Le Chapitre More than 30 students interested in the French language made up the membership of the French Club, Le Chapitre. President Libba Linn and Vice President Gail Lambert worked with Gratia Winship, treasurer, and Mrs. Kathryn Volker, sponsor, to supervise the club in planning activiti es. A field trip to the University of Texas at Austin to visit the French Department and a spring trip were planned. The club also hoped to attend the Alliance Francaise in November. This was a program given by a French artist. To finance these field trips, the French Club sold French bread from Citj ' Bakery at Thanksgiving, tamales at Christmas and car- nations for St. Valentines Day.

That ' s how Faron Evans, secretary, and other club members characterized Thursday night meetings at Frau Helen Nowicki ' s house. Under the official name of King High School Stalag 57 German Club, the active membership for the 1970-1971 school year doubled in comparison to the previous year. With the help of Frau Nowicki, Chancellor Danny Dauenhauer and Vice Chancellorin Susan Davidson, Stalag .57 promoted a detailed understanding of the customs and language of Germany and also provided a setting for discussions concerning Germany history and politics. Entertainment included the showing of Defense of the Homeland, a movie made by some of last year ' s students who depicted a handfid of Germans defending Padre Island from Allied Nuclear Attack. The filming ol more movies by Cele-Scrip Production. . Limited (a student effort) was planned. The Stalag 57 soccer team led by Captain Joe Celeski and Coach Steve Utley, practiced two days a week to enable them to defeat the NFL-Spanish Club Soccer Team, 3-0, in a late October game. Two successful bakesales and the collec- tion of membership dues enriched the trea.s- ury enough to financially aid the soccer team, according to Jerry Britsch, treasurer. Tad Scripter, who had lived in Germa- ny, filled the new role of executive director. Coach Steve Utley, who was injured in a socce practice, gives advice to Chuck Johnson about tlirow-in technique. 48 Organizations
