Bridge Games In Lounge
Make Spanish "Interesting"
Dos oros, un basto, paso, dos
sin triunfos—that, amigos, is one
way of opening a bridge game in
Spanish.
And nor Dios why would anyone want to play bridge in Spanish? Well according to all the
college catalogues, one of the
aims of a modern language
course is to enable the student to
converse fairly well in that language. Dr. Childers, Professor in
Spanish, decided that, since most
college students can play bridge,
this would be a good way to accomplish the purpose. And so
the alegres companeros were in
the Lounge this week during
their class periods to apostar
contra adversarios, (or in other
words the joyful partners were
in the Lounge to bid against
their opponents.)
Ah well, we don't do anything
like that in Greek class, but
then, the Latins always did have
a reputation for doing work the
easy way.
