Literature Club Hosts Anthology The Literature Club presented its second annual literacy anthology in May. Approximately 200 pieces of short stories, poetry, and artwork were submitted by talented student Writers and artists during the fall semester. Editors Cary Birdwell, Ienniier Gause, Brad Campbell, Keather Valdez and DeLea Stutzman led the committee members in selecting material for the 1987 Anthology. During the spring, two guest speakers, Dr. Cohan and Dr. Romer spoke to club members about poetry and the Iapanese Education System. Off the job, the club attended Texas Christian University's production of The Glass Menagerie and Death Trap. Altogether it has been a very suc- cessful year, said club sponsor Bever- ly Frank.

Membership Increases Spanish Club's Plans LHablas espanol? No, no lo hablo pero estoy aprendiarlo. The Spanish Club got off to a good start this year. Membership in the club doubled and a S200 scholarship was presented to the outstanding Spanish student. To celebrate the holidays, club members at- tended a dinner and carolling party. Monthly meetings were also held during the year which featured guest speakers, such as Iordi Arrufat, foreign exchange student from Spain. In addition, members kept a scrapbook of past and present events and entered it in the Pan American Students Forum in San Antonio during March.

Iournalism Classes Combine To Form Bengal Beat After a rough start, the journalism classes pull- ed together to form the best Bengal Beat staff in years. This is the first year I've had I-l students do well enough to deserve promotions at mid-term, said sponsor Kathryn Barnett. Usually, I-1 students stay reporters all year. They only move up when they get into second year journalism. Even then, staff positions are acquired and kept on merit, she explained. By February l, the staff completed the four issues necessary to enter Interscholastic League Press Conference competition in newspaper overall ratings, and individual achievement awards. The results were announced in April at the convention in Austin. This was the first year of competition at the 5A level. ln the UIL individual writing contests, we've made it to state two of the three years we've com- peted, said Barnett. So even though we were up against some heavy-weight schools, the talent of some individuals gave us the strength we needed as a group to hold our own against the big guys.
