HOMES and "In Italy you are told to 'study the chapter; in America, you are told to 'read' the chapter," Ennio Esposito, Santa Cruz high's American Field Service exchange students told the Soroptimist club at a recent luncheon meeting at Hotel Palomar. Commenting further on the differences in the educational systems of the two countries, this outstanding teenager said that the American-style comprehensive high school offering a variety of Droerams. the Italian cities nave several kinds of high schools classical, vocational, technical and scientific.

Most schools are state support ed, he said, although some are run by the Catholic church. Edu cation in Italy is compulsory oniy through junior high school. Esposito said that he had attended a classical high school where classes are conducted six days a week but only during the morning hours. Some of the other schools do have afternoon classes, he noted, but these do not begin until late in the afternoon, as the Italian people customarily ob serve a very long lunch hour. He said he studied 15 subjects last year, including Iitalian, Latin, Greek, philosophy, history, geo-metry(, algebra and the history of art.

The pattern, however, is more like the American colleges he explained, as each class meets onlv two or three days a week. There are no elective suojecia, and all students take the same courses. In answer to a question as to whether he would recieve credit for his year's work as a senior at Santa Cruz high school, wposito said that he will have to take examinations in each subject when he returns to school in Italy next fall. If he passes the examinations, then he will go ahead with his class. He stated that there is more homework in the Italian schools because they attend school fewer hours each day and because they take so many more subjects.

However, he commented that one of his surprises in coming to Amer Social Club Gathers At Los Gatos Home- Mrs. Margaret Lincoln of Los Gatos was hostess to 17 of her sister members of Royal Neighbors Social club for their recent luncheon meeting and afternoon of cards.

-0 0 0 SnOP IV THE GREATER SANTA CRUZ TRADING AREA INCOME UNITS CRISS-CROSS BRA ica was the amount of homework also assigned by the American schools, as he had understood that schools here were much easier than they are. Organized sports are not a part of school life in Italy, Esposito told the Soroptimists. but the students themselves organize many teams as an extra-school activity. One of the biggest differences, he said, between the teenager in American and his Italian counterpart is that so many of the American high school students have part-time jobs something unheard of in Italy. He explained that there are nop art-time jobs in Italy and the students themselves would have no time to work during the school year because they have so much homework to do.

Esposito told the Soroptimists what a "wonderful experience" this has been for him and thanked them for sponsoring him. He was introduced to the members by Mrs. Lorette Wood, who is his "mother" during his stay in Santa Cruz. Guests at the meeting included the Rev. Pauline Powell, County Supervisor Hulda McLean, Mrs.
