AFS Program Proves Exoellen Course in World Llnderstandin Since 1951, MHS has actively participated in the AFS program by bringing students from abroad to study here. The Student Council sponsors a yearly drive to collect money for this purpose. Area busi- nesses and school clubs as well as members of the student body gener- ously contribute to make it a success. During the past year, two foreign exchange students experienced the American way of life at MHS. Cathy Blondeau brought from France a touch of her native culture. While at MHS, American sports and Judo interested her. She also became in- volved in dramatics as an honorary Thespian and in journalism as a MISKODEED staffer and an ALL- TOLD reporter. Mayumi Tokasuna from Shiojiri, Mishawaka's sister city in Japan, stayed with the Pooley family. She found that the customs of Americans differed greatly from those in Japan. Mayumi became acquainted with the typical life of an American teen y attending classes and by particip t- ing in all school activities. Americ n food was a treat for her. Malts, ha . burgers, and French fries, the fare of MHS teens, were among her favorites. MHS'er Marybeth Kleiser rf:- e ceived a taste of the German cultu during her ten week stay in G r- many last summer. In Thierhaupt she joined with the villagers in t Tl 6 daily routine of a farm community. The highlight of her trip was the 't- tendance at a traditional Germ beerfest which was an experien l'Il never forget . The AFS and foreign exchan program helped promote a better lationship between foreign countri and the United States. l'1 E 8 S , -1 ..s:s:.,.. ..-,. .
