The German Club had no trouble finding activities to keep them busy. One of the biggest events ot the year was their annual Christmas party. Everything was German: the songs, the music, and even the new members. The initiates were contestants on a quiz program and paid the consequences for incorrect answers. Many activities were carried on at the monthly meetings. These activities included a one-act German play, movies, and the study of German folk costumes. Every year the club trophy is awarded to the member who has contributed most to the club. This year's winner was Helen Anon- sen.

Spanish Club Adelante, siempre adelante is the Span- ish Club motto. lt means Forward, always forward. The members uphold this motto by carrying out their many and varied activi- ties. The students must maintain a first semester average of B to become a member of the club. Then they have to maintain a C average. The purpose of the club is to give the students a better understanding of the people they are studying. During homecoming the members sell paper Ieis by the dozens to raise money for the club treasury. Everyone remembers how colorful the halls looked when almost every student wore one or more of these Ieis. At the Spanish Club Christmas party, the members had the traditional pinata, a gaily decorated bag filled with goodies, suspended from the ceiling. A student was blindfolded and given a stick, then he tried to break the bag, showering the candy to the floor. During March, the Spanish Club ioined with the other language clubs to put on a very colorful display in the front hall. One of the highlights of the year was a trip to a Mexican village in St. Paul. Another active group within the Spanish Club is the Spanish band. They have played on radio pro- grams, for meetings, and for a banquet. The instruments are a guitar, two violins, and morroccos. The final event of the year is always a senior farewell banquet.
