"1 don't espscl&.lly like American food. they mix too much together," replied 18-year old VIvian Kirton In answer to one of the many questions asked her by Mrs. Nlla Magdanz's third hour homemaking class.

Vivian Is here Crom Cambridge, England on a two year visa. She Is working a11 a domt-stlc (governess) In the district.

Senior Turri Rutle first Introduced VIvian to West.slde, so that she could meet llOople. She was asked by M1·s. Magdanz to speak to her first and third hour homemaking clasf\es, which are currently studying fnmlly living. Although It Is tlosslble for VIvian to become an American citizen after five years she feels that she would rather remain British.

Karen Sabler, senior remarked; "She Is an excellent example of English culture."

Among these amateur Kennedys are Nick Kostos, who believes that getting rid of trolls will improve the situation, and Bob Bucholz, who thinks not beIng starry-eyed over the upperclassmen would do it. Il might. b o noted that both convinced tho voters and won.
