THE HUMBOLDT INDEPENDENT, Humboldt, Iowa PAGE FOUR SATU 1 yL 27 Humboldt Register Editor, Terry Dwyer Assistant, Mary Herrick Current Events Club New At Humboldt High One of Humboldt High's newest clubs is the Current Events Club. This club is being formed in order that students may discuss current problems and situations of the present day world. They have ordered copies of a book entitled "Today's Isms" by William Ebcn- stcin. This book is divided into two sections. They are: the totalitarian way of life and the democratic way of life.

The issues of communism, fascism, capitalism, and socialism arc discussed in the book. The Current Events Club is sponsored by Donald Briggs, American History and psychology instructor, and meets every two weeks. Anyone interested is invited to attend the next meeting. Spanish Club Meeting Held Poll Students In 4 Areas Offer Russian 9 Students Take It This year for the first tinie in its history, Humboldt high Offering a course in the Russian' language. Six seniors and three juniors under the guidance of Patricia Waters, the instructor, are learning to write and speak in Russian.

Because of the scarcity of teachers and the relative complexity of Russian in comparison with other foreign languages, it is usually taught in college rather than on a high school level. As anyone who has ever seen anything written in Russian can tell you, it looks different from English, for the Russians do not use the Roman alphabet as we do, but one based on Greek. -This leads to the first complication in learning the language: per- studying Russian have to learn how. to write and pronounce a Whole new alphabet. The second meeting of the newly organized Humboldt High school Spanish Club was held Oct.

23. A copy of the constitution and bylaws was presented to each member, and a vote on them will take place at the next meeting. Activities to be held by the Spanish Club during the year were suggested and discussed. Henry Hope, a local businessman, spoke and showed slides of Equador to the club members. He has spent several years in South America and is familiar with the Spanisii language and customs.

Permanent committees for the year were announced. Members of the finance committee are Becky Jcffers, Becky Eastman, Mary Her: rick, Glenda Sorertsoiy and Linda Nisseri. Program committee members are Anne Hope, Jerry Edwards, Vicky Fevold, Virginia Johnsen, and Paula Hart. Meetings of the Spanish Club will be held the third Tuesday of each month at 4:00. The next meeting will be held Nov.

19. Special parties and activities arc also planned for the year. High School Students In 'Oklahoma' The Community Chorus will present the musical, Nov. 1 and 3 in the high school auditorium. Portions of the production are to be dramatized various high school dancers.

Sharon Clancy, Susan Dodgen, Janice Hankins, and Rayette Laird show their talents along with Loretta Thors'dh, 'Burton Lindhart, Bob Ernst, Rick Welch, and Bob Rod. Their instructor is Pain Mickle, who has a dance studio in downtown Humboldt. Jeanne Wlttman As part of the course, last year's psychology class conducted a survey among H. H. S.

students. The poll was divided into four parts: home life, social life, school life, and sources of disagreement between you and your parents. Its purpose was to determine the "whip" of present day behavior. Some typical questions were: "Do your parents seopi ovcrcon- ccrned with the way you spend your time?" "How many nights a week do you stay out after 10 p. "Do you feel you need more friends?" "Do you believe going steady is all right for high school students?" There were various responses to each question asked.

The results were divided into categories: boys and girls. These two were then broken down into four subdivisions; one division for each grade. It was discovered the greatest source of disagreement was the area of home duties and the area of least disagreement was tied between going to unchaperoned par- tics and to clubs and societies, Some 241 H. H. S.

students talk over problems with theifi parents while 119. don't. total of 101 think Humboldt has' enough activities for young people while 303 students said no. Only 73 students wore going steady at poll time while 303 were not. (nine didn't know!) Some 100 students thought young couples should be permitted to hold in' the hall but 217 said 'no' to the same question.

The results of the survey will be more closely studied by the psychology class this year. Donald Briggs is the psychology instructor at H. H. S. dress ''We Can Create a Better Iowa." Another address entitled "Who's the Boss in the Family" was given by Sam Levenson, former teacher, television personality, and popular humorist.

A president's reception and dance was held at the Hotel Fort DesMoincs immediately following the closing of the first general session, to which everyone was invited. A special attraction at the presidents' reception was Jolecn Wolf, Miss Iowa of 1962. Friday morning's general session opened at 10 a.m. in the Veteran's Memorial auditorium and closed in time for the and area noon and area meetings were held Friday To avoid conflicts, no other meetings were scheduled during the area and section meetings. Area meetings arc sections or groups with allied interests; whereas, the section meetings arc in the fields of specific subjects.

SPORTLIGHTS By Jim Ilailar Tlic freshman-sophomore squad broke a three game losing streak by beating St. Edmund of Fort Dodge at Dodger stadium Monday by a score of 7-6. -The freshman- sophomore's are now 2-3 for the season. The only Wildcat score came in the first quarter when John Van Deelan connected with Jim Ricn- ertson on a ten-yard pass for the score. The game-winning extra point was on a pass from Van Deelan 'to Jim, Coddington, making the score 17-0.

The GSiels scored in the fourth period, but the extra point attempt was no good and the final score was 76 in favor of Humboldt. one wants one of their billfold- size pictures. llill Linn is always adding more examples to psychology class. Only yesterday when the subject of tact 'ivas brought up, lie disagreed thoroughly that psychology class was easy. Luckily Mr.

Briggs had an answer to the argument, ttill is now going to take separate tests. Good luck, Bill! The P. E. girls are having a tough time taking soccer tests. I wonder how many smiling faces we'll see when the tests are returned.

This year alone, six talented' ball players have injured themselves to the extent of not being able to play the rest of the season. These athletes are Mel Berryhill and Leroy Lines who both suffered back injuries playing against the Clarion Eleven. Ted Johnson, playing against the Algona squad, also suffered a back injury, while Jerry Edwards, a sophomore, broke his collarbone in the same game. Randy Westfall, also a sophomore, has a torn tendon to nurse the rest of the season since the Hampton game. Chuck Christ is on the list, too, with a sprained ankle.

Our head coach has been shuffling players around in our team line and back field in an effort to balance our offensive and defensive game. This poses quite a problem, because with six out of the picture altogether and with a few players just beginning'to recover from minor injuries inflicted upon them in previous games, Humboldt has to fight and beat Webster City, a very rugged opponent, and Iowa Falls to show the kind of record the team and school is striving for this season. for one, do not envy coach Kuhlman his job.
