To do this, ltalian Honor members assisted in language programs in the elementary schools with the objec- tive of encouraging students to study many languages. Aside from Halloween Happenings and the Homecoming Parade, they participated with community leaders in encouraging greater funding for foreign language studies. l believe it necessary to pioneer in the study of languages and l intend to put my full efforts in engendering the need in elementary school. ln this way, when a student reaches high school, he will be fully aware of the importance of language to secure better employment, stated Mrs. Joan Cormier, sponsor. ,, J, , g mum Esther Pascual and Eva Hernandez, society members, set up a tape on a recorder at an ltalian Honor meeting.
