IPdDitpoimn'irn It was a tearful parting last Wednesday wherTMargareta Larsdotter-Aulin left Medford on the first part of her return journey to her native Sweden. The pretty Swedish girl came to Oregon last September as an exchange student, and spent the school term attending Medford High school and living with the Frank Bash family. During the months she endeared herself to Mr. and Mrs. Bash and their family and came to be one of the family. She dropped into the habit of calling Mrs. Bash "mother" as did Judy and shared in the family work and recreation. In a final talk with Potpourri Tuesday, Margareta said that everyone had been friendly and kind throughout the year and that she had had "a wonderful time." There is no doubt that Margareta was well liked by her fellow students at high school, for they chose her prom queen in a populai election. Of course, Margareta is anxious to return home to hei mother and other family members a year is a long time away from home. But she hopes to return to the United States from time to time. The Swedish student knows that the coming school year in Sweden, her final one before starting on to college courses, will be more severe than het courses were here in Medford High school, in spite of the fact that here she had to cope with the language barrier She was "graduated" from-Medford High school with the class of 1958, but her credits are not acceptable by Falun Girls Community school. For her senior year there she wilJ enroll in German, history of religion, biology, mathematics, English, Swedish and possibly French. "Study comes first in our schools," said Margareta Tues day. "Activities come later, if there is time." However, after a year in Medford, this intelligent and shrewd student be lieves that there should be -fewer extra-curricular activities in American schools, and more in the Swedish schools. She particularly believes that her school should incorporate more oral recitation and more public speaking courses, and say that Medford students are called upon more often to express themselves in class. Margareta's greatest trouble in studying here was due to the fact that textbooks have many "local expressions" which were unfamiliar to her and which the Bashes, who tried to help her whenever possible, found difficult to put into wordfc which she could understand. Mrs. Bash said she had never before realized how many textbooks are filled with expressions of this nature. While Margareta particularly enjoyed the informal man nerisms of the young people of America and indeed the freedom which is the privilege of everyone in this country, she also believes that at times it exceeds the bounds of what would be considered good taste in Sweden. As an in stance she said that young people coming to the Bash home immediately roamed at will throughout the .house, and sometimes helped themselves, uninvited, to food, something which would not happen in her country. But for the most part the Swedish visitor is taking home nothing but pleasant memories of Medford and Oregon. After leaving Medford Wednesday she would meet other exchange students in Forest Grove and Portland and travel by .bus across country, stopping en route in several cities. She will visit in the nation's capital, and at a point in New York state the entire group of students brought here last summer under the program of the American Field service, will be assembled for re-orientation lectures before sailing for their various homes. Students must promise not to leave their own countries for two years after returning home. Since Miss Aulin was brought here by Medford Rotary club, she attended a meeting of the group not long ago and expressed her appreciation. In addition, she dictated a mes sage in Swedish which was taped and sent to Sweden for playing at meetings of Rotary clubs in that country. Asked what the re-orientation sessions might cover, Mrs. Bash said that among other material the students are brushed up on language since in some instances they begin to lose facility in their own tongue. At this point the reporter point ed out something which we had noticed at once upon meeting Margareta Tuesday her accent was much more noticeable than the night we had talked during the Junior Prom festivi ties. Mrs. Bash also said she had noticed this same interesting fact in recent days, and the two of us decided that it must be because Margareta was mentally and emotionally pre paring herself for her return to Sweden. Margareta reacted with) considerable agitation. "Oh, no," she wailed. "This is terrible. I simply can't go back to that fat old Swedish accent!" Accent or no accent, the charming Margareta has been a fine ambassador for her country, and we are sure that she will do much to further friendly relations between the United States and Sweden, should this be needed. Mrs. Bash believes that because Margareta's stay here has been so successful, she has influenced another service club, the Lions, to sponsor a foreign student also and next fall there will be! two, instead of only one, spending a year in friendly Med ford.
