During the school year, if anyone caught a glimpse of a 6 ' 5 young man, it had to be Jose Roberto Ferro. Bob, as he preferred to be called, came to T.H.S. as an American Field Service Student from Sao Carlos, Brazil. Living accommodations for Bob were arranged with Mr. and Mrs. Donald Cogley of Titusville, and their sons Von and Ben. The local A.F.S. Committee along with the Student Council raised the money and handled the paper work involved in bringing Bob to Titusville. This enthusiastic, giant student liked most sports, especially basketball, chess, soccer, swimming, and volley- ball. The sixth grade Outdoor Educa- tion School was pleased when Bob served as a volunteer counselor for three days at Pioneer Ranch. iHllllpWBlill 11.11 .ilUiPP ' - HIB — Height added to team by Bob ni ' ' ' ' ' .i» Bob FetTO {upper right) shares the happy homt Mr. and Mrs. Donald Cogley, Van, and Ben.

Brazilian summer exciting for Mike While a lot of us were lying around soaking up the sun last summer, Mike Adelman was learning to speak Portu- guese. Mike spent ten weeks of his summer vocation in Sao Paulo, Brazil, as an American Abroad student from the United States. Mike lived with the family of Manoel Afonso de Andre, Jr., and had eight South American brothers and sisters: Gil, Celso, Paulo, Manoel, Carlos, Ed- wardo, Gougi, and Zoca. During his stay in Sao Paulo, Mike went to an all boy ' s school. By attend- ing some of the parties and dances, he found that teenagers around the world enjoy the same things: dancing, sing- ing, playing guitars, and just goofing off. Mike enjoyed Brazil immensely, and his only regret was that he couldn ' t stay longer. He was just beginning to communicate fluently in Portuguese when he had to leave. If ever given a chance to go abroad again, he intends to take it!
