CIRCULO ESPANOL WILL START AN ORGANIZATION

Dinamarca is to Head Conversation Classes in Spanish--Club Was Tried Some Years Ago

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A Circulo Espanol, to be organized for the purpose of affording undergraduates an opportunity for informal conversation in Spanish, will hold its first meeting tomorrow night in Phillips Brooks House at 7.15 o'clock.

Mr. Salvador Dinamarca, instructor in Spanish, is to be the faculty leader and will conduct the conversations. Dinamarca is a Chilean by birth and graduated from the University of Chile. He has been in this country for three years.

While a Spanish club has existed at Harvard before, it was abandoned because of lack of interest. Increased enrollment in Spanish courses and revived interest in a conversation club, however, has made a reorganization feasible.

A Cercle Francais and Circolo Italiano have been in existence in the University for many years. It is expected that the Circulo Espanol will be modelled along similar lines. The Cercle Francais presents a popular play each year while both clubs write as well as read literature in the respective tongues and attend lectures and plays given in those languages.
