La Posada, a traditional Christmas observance opened the year's activities. Monthly meetings featured talks and discussions on Panama, Mexico, and Brazil. Dr. Orazio Giusti of the Marycrest faculty led the discussion on the dress, climate, and customs of Brazil and later in the year described his sojourn through Mexico dur- ing the Christmas holidays. Programs of songs, plays, and native dances characterize the club's activties as Spanish students enliven weary hours of study over Spanish verbs and idioms with touches of the gaity familiarity with the language will bring.

HOME ECONOMICS CLUB The Home Economics Club seeks to encourage friendly association among faculty and students interested in home economics, to help students meet and know people who have attained recognition in home economics professions, to provide opportuni- ties for the development of leadership abilities, and to stress the importance of family life. To promote these objectives, the club studied various career opportunities in home economics, presented information concerning summer employment positions that strengthen understanding of the profession, and emphasized the art of communi- cation and effective public relations. Club members also participated in the Fine Arts Festival.
