French Club Learning to speak a foreign language fluently is an adventure that, once experi- enced, will never be forgotten. Since much classroom time is consumed in grammar instruction, language clubs, such as LE CERCLE FRANCAIS, are organized in order to allow students to speak the lan- guage in actual conversation. When the students converse in French their interest in French history and the French people is awakenedg therefore, the FRENCH CLUB fills a two-fold purpose. Members also enjoy the opportunities they have to interview French people who settle in this community. QLOS PANAMEHICANOSQ' Southside's Spanish Club, was formed for the purpose of giving its members practice in speaking the language and familiarizing them with the customs of Spain and Mexico, as well as those of South American countries. This year the club had a very busy agenda which included several parties, in- cluding one held around Christmas time in honor of Elmira's guests from Mexico. Here the Mexican students found a some- what homey atmosphere, complete with pinata and Spanish Christmas carols. DER DEUTSCHE VEREIN, Southside's German Club, exemplifies the typical stu- dent interest in broadening his knowledge of a language and its peoples outside the classroom, Its members include all second, third, and fourth year students in German. The club was particularly fortunate this year in having a native speaker for its advisor. Mr. Herbert Hofer, an exchange teacher from Salzburg, Austria, helped greatly in passing on first-hand informa- tion about the people and customs of Ger- man speaking lands.

Ermanovics, C. Fudge, C. Terwilliger, J. Batulis, R. Danks, R. Jump, J. Lindsay, G. Lindsay, D. Kester, G. Hood, R. Dewey. There is no segment of education more adventuresome than science. This statement is the firm belief of the group of outstand- ing science students who formed the EPIS- TIMINI SCIENCE CLUB. Under the leadership of Mr. Ball and Mr. Hayes. the students further their knowledge of various science fields by discussion. experimenta- tion, and demonstration. To present an opportunity to explore the teaching field is the purpose of the FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA. All prospective teachers belonging to this or- ganization fit themselves to the equation- the requirements of teaching equal my qualifications to teach. If the equation balances. each student is destined to be- come a select member of that highly respected profession-teaching. FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA-First Row: S. Dunham, B. Comfort, J.
