French Club Members Sample French Culture FRENCH CLUB Parlez vous francais? The members of the French Club speak the foreign language very well. Interested students who are taking, or have taken, French are invited to ioin the French Club. Business meetings are held every third Friday of the month and the members also plan many recreational get-togethers. At Christmas time a special yuletide meeting was held. The members sang Christmas carols in French, wrote original Christmas stories in French, and served seasonal refreshments. At other meetings enjoyable games are con- ducted in French in order to help the members learn new French words and phrases. Also, during the year the club members participate in several potluck dinners. Everyone is responsible for bringing their favorite French dish. The year is highlighted by two interesting field trips. Members travel to the International Building in Detroit for the Old World Fair. Various countries are represented by exhibits and displays. A dinner at the Pontchartrain climaxes the year's activities.

This club promotes athletics and good sportsmanship and the members give their assistance at athletic contests. Meetings consist of an informal business dis- cussion concerning proiects and plans and then the boys retire to the gym to participate in a sports activity. Each year the club presents the MC basketball game. Club members dress in ridiculous outfits and form two basketball teams which amuse the student body. The money from this project is contributed to the MC Club Scholarship fund. Annually, the club presents one of its members this scholarship award. The winner is determined on points allowed for scholastic and athletic achieve- ment. The club also awards a trophy to one outstand- ing senior player in each sport. The recipients are chosen from a vote of coaches and teammates. In the spring, members join with the other boys' clubs of MCHS to give the Spring Swing. Dove Sheridan and Dean Carpenter point out the MC club's rules governing letter sweaters. Numerals on the right sleeve, service stripes and stars on left and emblem above the pocket.
