A.F.S. PROGRAM - Left to Right: Peg Lo jS? V cv X5J XV - To the Students and Faculty of W.G.C.S. Last year, W.G.C.S. had its first foreign student under the American Field Service program. This year the Ganungs were fortunate enough to be the host family to James Hezron Ndegwa from Kenya. A warm friendship has developed between him and the entire family. We are exchanging letters between families almost half way around the globe, learning from them as they learn from us. Africa is a continent composed of people who want recognition and freedom of self-rule. They will eventually be the deciding factor in the Cold War as the conflict for their minds continues. It is indeed fortunate that we have a guest from a country that will soon have its “uhuru,” or independence. To be able to live, speak and debate with this guest is a AFS STUDENTS Cathy Ganung, Jim Ganung, Mr. Cook. very rewarding experience. When you make a friend, a true friend, that is a great accomplishment. If this friend happens to be of another country, and perhaps of a different complexion, so much the better. I now wish to express my appreciation to the people who have unanimously offered their friendship and help to Jim. I hope that next year, when you have another foreign student, you will offer him, or her, the same graciousness and help that Jim and I have received this school year. With deepest sincerity and gratitude, James R. Ganung 6
