dents the club was so fortunate
to have. Miss Lena Rosen f r m
Sweden who is attending Lewes
High School, Mr. EMO Montoneu
from Sicily now attending Milford
High School, and Miss Ines Guz-
man Dios from Argentina now
with the Georgetown High School
Miss Dios rendered two folk songs,
one in Spanish and one in Ameri-
can, accompanying herself with a
guitar. Comparisons were made on
the Seasons, Customs, Educational
Systems, Governments, Living and
Social Standards with those Of
America.
Hearing these students express
themselves so fluently makes one
realize the worthiness of the Field
Service Program and makes us
conscious of it's valuable effort to
bring about a better International
understanding and surely bridges
the seemingly distant feeling to-
ward those on other Continents.
The Club wishes to express its
sincere appreciation and thanks to
all of those who supported and
made our recent card party
huge success.
