The lively, mischievous grin glowing in a bronze face and the slim, dark-haired pretti- ness of a Latin girl gave to the MHS student body and faculty a feeling of international gaiety and friendship. During the past school year, Florante Mori from the Philippines and Est ela Bence from Argentina offered not only the warm, personal side of their lives to many friends at Meadowdale but also a first-hand report on life and people in their homelands. Although neither Estela nor Flor- ante were sponsored by the Meadowdale International Relations League, President Sheila Page and the members of IRL proudly adopted the two and eagerly guided them into school activities and upward toward a wider scope of American life. IRL officers, left to right: Jim Vaughn, secretary; Ste- phen Bird, lieutenant-colonel; Sheila Page, president; Ken Jennings, vice-president; Les Savitch, treasurer.
