French Club Travels to Paris Early one April morning this year, 13 North Branch students and their chaperones, Mr. and Mrs. Pohly, climbed aboard a DC-9 jet in Windsor, en route to Toronto and later on to Paris, France. What most people only dream of — April in Paris, the fashion capital of the world; Notre Dame Cathe- dral, the Arc de Triumphe,- and the renowned Eiffel Tower! Although no words could describe the excitement felt or the experience gained by these students, Nancy Rozonski summarized them by saying, It was a nine-day dreaml I’ll never forget it. If I ever get the chance to go bock, l m going! The entire French Club could not participate, but a canoe trip was enjoyed by the club, as a whole, in August. Much time and planning went toward the trip effort. Money raising projects including an afghan and basketball raffle, the sale of fruit cakes and bill- boards, dances, the annual faculty auction, and bake sales provided necessary funds. For 13 French Club girls, 1973-74 was a very active and exciting year. 20

The students seemed to keep busy throughout the year. If not participating in clubs, then by working for teachers. Three groups of students assisted the faculty in their never ending jobs such as typing, correcting homework and tests, and sometimes helping other students to do bet- ter work. Student Secretaries were an important part of the school scene at N.B.H. throughout the year. They assisted by doing many tasks teachers would not have had time to do themselves. The Cadet Teochers consisted of 18 students, 17 of whom were female. These students per- formed services for the teachers of the Middle and the Elementary schools. Their jobs Were very similar to those of the student secretaries at the high school. If ever you wondered why the library was always so neat and tidy, it was principally because of the students working there — Library Aids. These people hod a busy schedule checking out books, chasing down overdue books, plus the many other duties assigned to them. When asked how they had helped throughout the year, the librarian. Miss Brainard replied, “Most of the Library Aids have been very helpful, especially in typing cards ond business letters. 22
