Many sent Christmas cards to last year's Danish A.F.S. student, Helle Neilsen. Paris Bingo was an added novelty for entertainment at the meetings. Pencil games helped them review their vocabulary of French words. French II students presented The Three Wishes for the club and at the variety show. LeAnn Scheidecker and Jeanne Steffen portrayed the woodcutter and his foolish wife. Homemade fudge and cookies were sold at a sock hop.
