Language Clubs’ Foreign Dreams The activities of both the French and the Spanish Clubs this year were centered around contests and trips. Membership in the Spanish Club consisted of those students who were planning to enter the National Spanish Contest and or go on a group trip to Mexico. Similarly, the French Club students went on a trip to France and or took part in one or both of the French contests. A Vous la Parole (oral) at St. Olaf College, and Le Grand Concours. the French version of the national contests. To raise money for their causes, both clubs sold ’Happenings” books and participated in a paper drive. The members of both clubs spent much of the school year preparing for their respective contests.

Successful Spaghetti Dinner This year’s annual Open House was held in September, and it was a great success. The major reason for the large turn-out was the spaghetti dinner that was held in the cafeteria prior to the Open House. The dinner was the idea of Human Relations head Arturo Herrera and was sponsored by the senior class. Vescio’s Italian Cafe of Dinkytown catered the spaghetti and several members of the community helped provide food and prepare for the dinner. About 400 people came to the dinner, giving the senior class a net profit of more then $500. The object of having the spaghetti dinner.” Herrera said, was to give the community, students, and teachers a chance to exchange ideas on several issues affecting M-U in an informal atmosphere.” Photo number one: Waiters: Pat Morley, Karl Mueller.

Debaters Continue Success Resolved: that the United States should significantly change its foreign trade policies.” This was the subject for debate during the 1979-80 school year. To prepare themselves for the debates over this question, our debaters spent a great deal of time researching government documents at University of Minnesota libraries. Throughout the year, each debater amassed literally thousands of index cards containing research data. There was more to debate than just high pressure and hard work. The debaters had the opportunity to travel to tournaments from Chicago to Watertown. South Dakota, staying overnight in hotels and eating breakfast at Country Kitchens. They met people from California to New York to Florida. And they got to bring back the trophies they regularly won at their tournaments. Photo number one: Greg Simpson.
