German films and lectures by representatives from the German Consul- ate gave club members an insight into German history and customs. Authentic German foods were sampled at the November Wurstfest and the Janu- ary food-tasting party with other lan- guage clubs at Lee. At Christmas, the group learned Ger- man Christmas carols which they sang at Texas Children's Hospital. This activity, plus entertainment provided by the Ger- man Band, exposed members to German music. Springtime found the German Club pre- paring for the German play which was presented at Lee and at the Texas Associ- ation of German Students convention held in Austin, Texas. The German Band enliv- ened the play, club banquet, and picnic held in May. Mrs. H. E. Thomas sponsors the club.

Students Enjoy Taste of French Culture Les Fleurs de Lee, Lee's French Club, promotes a broader knowledge of and a greater appreciation for the French culture. Various educational presentations, such as a slide preview from France and a speaker from the French restaurant, Foulard's, aided club members in their un- derstanding of French customs and lan- guage. Adding to their diverse activities, French Club members held two parties to cele- brate Bastille Day and Mardi Gras. They also sponsored a November faculty breakfast and a food-tasting party with other language clubs in January.
