SWITCH FINLAND This year has been a pleasant one for me. I have got a lot of new friends and had many new experi- ences. I have to 8ay that I don't regret my coming here. And I wish that you here at WHS could have as opportun- ity to come to Europe for one year as an exchange student. I think that I changed many opinions about the Unit- ed States and her people and those opinions were due to American crime movies, etc. I guess now my thoughts are more positive about your country. I haven t any plans to come back to the States to live here but I think I'd like to study somewhere here. Next time, when I come to the U.S.A., I sure will visit Wabasso. So special thanks to the teachers who have been able to tolerate me and to all my friends here for making this year a special one. See you, MEXICO Among our foreign exchange students this year was Mario Garcia from Mexico. During his U-nionth stay he lived with the Russel Holznagel family. Sharing the role with his twin brother, he watohes over four younger brothers and sisters in Mexico. Mario s main reason for visiting the United States was to learn the English language better. Learning English was the hardest part of adjusting to life in the United States for him. His future plans after he returns home include at- tending a state university and studying to become a doctor.
