Les Cercles Francais Senior Division The Eiffel Tower stood in silence surrounded b th t y e sreets of gay Parisg Notre Dame rose above the peaceful Seine like an arm reaching up into the heavens. Many of the students reported such items to their friends at a French Club meeting. Ques- tions were thrown at them from all sides of the room. Did the painters really paint in the streets at the Montmarte? What did you think about the French girls? Did they all look like Bridgette Bardotte? Laughter rang through the room at some of the questions, but all were answered as well as they could be by the students. This was a typical meeting of the senior division of the French Club. It was interesting, gay, and informative.

The rich warm colors blended together into what would be, at a later date, .a masterpiece. Tourists leaned over their shoulders and examined the works with critical eyes. Suddenly it ended. The lights were turned on again and all of the students sitting in the small cafeteria left France and returned to Louisville. Some stretched their arms and some started talking, and some joined in a discussion of the film, but one thing was universal-they all had a great time! Mrs. Rans- dell and Mrs. Hasselwander arranged for this trip so that all the students could visit France without leaving their seats.
