s I A .nt .Q- Los Caballeros Los Caballeros Alegrosn, alias G1i Bruti Facci , is the official tag affixed to the Spanish Club of Catholic High. The organization was formed to present to the Spanish II class a better understanding of the customs, traditions, and modes of living in the vari- ous Spanish-speaking countries. All members of the class are members of the club. The oflicers are: Thomas Toma, presidentg James Murphy, vice-presidentg Leo Pierotti, secretary-treasurerg and Louis Ertz, sergeant-at-arms. The activities of the club consist in the giving of papers by different members about topics concerning Spain and South America, and discussion of these. The club also fosters the presentation of motion pictures, exhibits, etc. about various aspects of Latin life. This was especially evident during Pan-American Week this year. Los Caballerosn have profited greatly through the club in their study of the Span- ish language and have been greatly enriched in their understanding and appreciation of the Spaniard's way of life. Q Much of the success of the group is attributed to the sparkling guidance of their faculty moderator, Sister Mary Rita. 56
