SPANISH CLUB The Spanish Club, EI l-lispano Americano, has been busy this year. Under the direction of la Senora l-lall, a hilarious initiation party. a Christmas pinata party, and other activi- ties have been held. The initiation was a grueling ordeal. One group of initiates played catch blindfolded. lncidentally the balls they played with were not ordinary ones. They were eggs. Other initiates trod in cold oat- meal or cheerfully consumed cooked maca- roni flavored with cod liver oil. Then they were officially made members of the club. The Christmas party was held in the band room. The traditional Spanish pinata, filled with goodies, highlighted the affair. The pinata was hung from the ceiling. One per- son was blindfolded and given a stick to FALL OFFICERS SPRING Marion Johnson President Jack Lee Richard l-lewetson Vice-president Mary Tibbetts Mary Buezis Secretary Gretta Johnstone Mary Rustad Treasurer Frank Sattervall Edith Forsmark Sergeant-at-Arms James Comfort break the pinata. When it finally was broken, candy, fruits, and nuts came tumbling out: and everyone scrambled for them. The motto of this club is Adelante, siem- pre adelante which means Forward, always forward. The real purpose of the club is to give Spanish students a better understand- ing of the customs of the people whose language they are studying. First term stu- dents must have a B average in Spanish to become members, and a C average is required after that. The club meets the third Thursday of each school month. Richard l-lewetson received the Spanish medal. E231
