f 1 - lf YA le El Civ-'culo Espanol HE Circulo Espanol was organized in 1926 by Miss Zoila de la Garza and Mr. Edgar Houston. The purpose of this club is to increase the students' interest in Spanish and to provide practice in conversation in this language. The colors purple and White, -the flower, the violet, and motto: UNO dejes para manana lo que puedas hacer hoy , were adopted by the club. The club membership is limited to fifteen, at present the number of members is eleven, three members having withdrawn from school, during the past semester. The club programs are rather informal, as the club uses any device that will be entertaining and at the same time increase the vocabulary of the Spanish language of every member. The programs mainly consist of songs, recitations, jokes, and games. The out of door meetings have been a decided success. TOP ROW:-B. Mann, M. A. Netzer, K. Dacamara, G. Sturgis. MIDDLE ROW:-C.
