French was extended to include a fifth year. Eleven people elected it and enjoyed reporting on the politics, literature, and art of France. Since German may now be taken by junior high school students, a fourth year German class was initiated for advanced stu- dents. The already established fifth year Spanish class read and studied novels in that language. Many students worked toward the Advanced Placement courses of the College Entrance Examination Board. North Central once again entered the largest number of applicants in the state in the Indiana University Honors Program. Nearly nine hundred students throughout the state entered the competi- tion in French, German, and Spanish. Forty-three of these were Central ites. Of this, Indiana chose four students to spend the summer in France and two to live in Mexico. Karen Cure, Gail Eger, Dale Fink, and Georgie Miner will study in St. Brieuc, France, while Linda Roth and Susan Williams will be in San Luis Potosi, Mexico.
