Vill you please pass de lutefisk down dis 71 • The scene is the annual banquet given for all graduating members of the Swedish and the Norse Clubs. A member of the Swedish Club has just asked for de lutefisk, please. A Norse Club members yells, Ya, coming right up, as she very gracefully slides the lutefisk bowl down the length of the table. The Norse Club and the Swedish Clubs are very closely related. Both languages are much the same as are the customs of each country. Sweden and Norway were once the same country. Because of this likeness there is friendly rivalry each year when the two clubs have a Swedish-Norse basketball game. Also because of their closeness the annual Swedish-Norse Banquet has grown to be a tradition to which members of both clubs look forward.

It is a land where the Senoras may at one minute be looking at a spine chilling bull fight and at the next minute be serenading their lady fair beneath a balcony in a moonlit garden. Maybe you can't travel, but you can get the atmosphere by joining the Spanish Club, which was organized in 1941. At their meetings, which are held the third Thursday of every month, the members enjoy movies, talks, and short plays about Mexico. A medal is awarded by the American As- FALL Shirley Price.. .

Every year since 1929, when the Roosevelt Scandinavian Club divided into the Swedish and the Norse Clubs, a friendly rivalry between the two clubs has existed. Every semester, superiority is temporarily settled in a basketball game, only to be brought up again the next semester. Playing basketball, however, is not the only function of the Norse Club. The real Talcs of Norway Sitting — Shinnci. Grcttc. Lauknew. Standing — K. Hanton, D. Johnton. purpose of the club is to stimulate interest in the land, the customs, and the culture of Norway. Any student who has taken or is taking Norse is eligible to join the Norse Club. Before a student can be declared officially a member he must go through a horrible initiation. 1271
