The 17-year old Guatemalan found his associates at LT and other acquaintances considerably friendlier than he had expected, and he greatly appreciated their efforts to make him feel welcome. Entrance into LT provided Fernando with more surprises. He found the options of course choice available to him differed radically from what he had been accustomed to in Guatemala. One day in early December Fernando discovered that the pieces of falling sky were snow and soon after, he enjoyed a typically American white Christmas. Throughout the year Fernando found that his greatest problem in living the life of a foreign student was adjusting to Amer- ica's great pace of activity. Lettermenis Club surprised Fernando with a gift letter sweater earned for his skilled participation on the varsity soccer team.

Boasting the largest enrollment and teaching staff in its eight year history, the summer school course Theater Workshop introduced the basics of music, drama, and stagecraft to its one hundred students. Fol- lowing six weeks of intensive rehearsals, they produced the musical comedy Once Upon a Mattressf' a satire on the well-known fairy tale of the princess and the pea. Because of construction at North Campus, the students built their own stage in the Vaughn Gym as well as designing and erecting the basic scenery. Props, make-up, costumes, and tickets were also handled by the cast members. As in previous years, a special feature of the course was a trip to the Stratford Festival in Ontario, Canada. During their four-day stay, the students saw performances of Shakespearean drama and comedy, as well as opera and ballet. The trip and their own final production provided a unique and exciting experience for all participants. A convincing word to Princess Wingfred reassures her of her chance of royal accep tance.
