Topic Club guests
Jorg Wonneberg and Steffi
Kohler of Germany spoke at
the lone Topic Club meeting
held at the home of Margaret
Morgan recently. Nancy Mc-
Elligott was co-hostess.
Wonneberg and Kohler are
exchange students attending
lone High School this year.
Wonneberg’ comes from Bret-
ten, which is near Stuttgart in
southern Germany. He attend
ed a school of about 1,000
students, so notes the differ
ences in numbers. He enjoys
many sports, such as windsurf
ing, soccer and snowboarding.
Many things are different here,
W onneberg said. He was
especially concerned by the
high cost of flying to the United
States. He is staying with host
mother Betty Gray.
Kohler is from what was
formerly East Berlin under
Soviet control after World War
1L There have been many
changes for her family since the
unification of East and West
Germany, she said. She noted
that before unification, if an
East German went to West
Berlin on business or to visit
relatives, some member of their
family was kept as a hostage
until they returned.
There was only one school in
her early years, but now there
are three different schools ac
cording to needs. Kohler com
mented on the long school days
here. At home she only attends
school until about 2:30 p.m.
because there are no extra cur
ricular activities sponsored by
the school. Kohler is living at
the home of Jim and Marie
Boor.
New members to the club,
Betty Gray and June Crowell,
were welcomed at the meeting.
