REDWOODETTES. PHI LAMBDA SIGMA Debbie Hart, Louise Ross, Jo Black, Allison Lynch, Gayle Souza, Lydia Golz , Sherrill Perry, Beth Stan- ton, Jodi Covington. Phi Lambda Sigma, Redwood's honorary language society, is sponsored by Miss Wingard and Miss Baynard who initiate enthusiasm for dinners, speeches, interest in languages, fund raising, and interest in other lands and peoples, foreign or American. The students in Phi Lambda Sigma must maintain at least a B average and be recommended by their language teacher. Membership is something to be honored because of the exclusiveness of this club. This year Phi Lambda Sigma has, as honorary members, our three exchange students, Helene Uddgren, Ali Massoma- khani, and Matthias Schmidt. Redwood's drill team, the Redwoodettes, were newly formed this year under the direction of Miss Jerri Slifford. Almost every day after school one could see these energetic girls practicing their routines for the coming game. The organ- ization was small, but they have provided a strong foundation for the years to come. The Redwoodettes had originality and entertained the spectators at each football ga fe. Each girl made her own outfit, which consisted of a grey iumper, red blouse, red tights, and pom-poms. The Redwoodettes should be commended for their fine performance at each game and for the important part they ROW l-Nancy Ingram, Anne Murray, Coralie Allen, Tina Schultz, Jan Cress, Carol Spooner, Linda Foster, Faye Brown, Toni Harris, Camie Mills, Helene Danelia.

The Experiment in International Living is open to all iunior and senior students who have a genuine interest in the world, both near and far from home. Several students are chosen each year to travel abroad for a summer under this valuable program. For one month, each student lives with a foreign family. After this four week homestay, they travel aboard for another month with a group of other Experimenters from different places. The program is primarily aimed at college stu- dents and young people up to the age of about thirty. However, in the past few years, the program for high school students has opened up with fine results. 1 ROW 1--Toni Banducci, Maria Massagli, Toni Harris, Stacy Moore, Linda Foster.

Our exchange students under the S.A.S. program, for this year were Mat Schmidt, visiting the United States from Germany, and Patty Lesko, traveling from Redwood to Preetz, One of the big highlights of this program was the S.A.S. conference, held in the Redwood library, on Saturday, February 2, 1963.

The Activities Council has played an important part in planning and coordinating the activities at Redwood dur- which exchange students and returnees were invited to partici- ing the past year. The members included were the Student Body Vice President, the commissioners of Finance, Elections, Social Activities and Public Relations, the Vice Presidents from the four classes, and the Presidents of all the clubs and so- cieties at Redwood. The council was responsible for seeing that the proiects planned by one club or committee did not interfere with those of another organization. Members of this year's International Club continued to express their enthusiasm and interest in fostering the devel- opment of International relations. The program, planned by elected officers with assistance from their sponsor Mr. Robert Moutner, emphasized the support of the three student ex- change programs represented at Redwood. Opportunities for the expression and exchange of ideas were provided by means of picnics and other gatherings at which exchange students and returnees were invited to participate. The highlight of the year's activities was an A.F.S. Hospitality night attended by all visiting students from Marin County.
