Miss Glasspoole Organizes NW ' s Original DEC A Chapter Picking out carpeting that would be nice for a future home can be a very tough decision for future homemakers Irene Purches, Delia Freese, and Nancy Hobson to make. Boxes of graham crackers are carefully set up in a display by Orlando Brown and Adam Givens for D.E.C.A. club members to view. 131

I Fiestas and Pihatas Bring Out the Ole in Spanish Club Viva Northwestern! became the battle cry of this year ' s Spanish Club as they vigorously participated in club activities. They began their year by electing new officers. They were: Paul Reyes, president; Lydia Garcia, vice-president; Sandy Grossman, secretary; and Patryce Nogaj, treasurer. The Spanish Club was organized to achieve an understanding of the Spanish language and to become acquainted with Spanish speaking countries and their customs. They did just that as they threw several colorful fiestas and enjoyed Spanish food. They ended the year with a costume party in which Latin- American and Spanish costumes were worn. Mr. Lee Janssen, club sponsor, who has lived in Nicaragua and visited several other Latin American countries brought a Spanish flair to their meetings. Mr. Janssen showed movies on bullfighting and fiestas, gave talks about Nicaragua, and led the club in native singing and dancing at their fiestas and bi-monthly meetings. Desean algo mas? Would you like anything else? , Mr. Janssen asks LaDonna Wisner while Mary Mosqueda awaits her turn, in a restaurant skit during Spanish Club. Paul Reyes, president of the Spanish Club, goes dramatic while enlisting volunteers to help plan the Christmas fiesta. 130
