The 8th grade officers are ly LONG-DISTANC- a reunion from across the sea as Martin Klein and his mother; Mrs. Nortrud Ottenhausen and brother Robert Klein exchange greetings, this time all in the same place., E REUNION KAYSVILLE There was much excitement and anticipation at the Salt Lake Airport April 3 as Martin Klein greeted his mother; his 11 year old brother, Robert, and his two year old sister Nora as they arrived from Germany to visit for a few weeks. Martin is with the Pacific Intercultural Exchange program and making his home with the David F. Johnson family. THE JOHNSONS were ' de- lighted to have Martins mother and two other children visit them. They have spent much time becoming ac- - quainted and seeing places of interest in the area. Martins mother, Mrs. Nortrud Ottenhausen said, lam overwhelmed at the extraordinary hospitality shown her and the children at the Johnson home. We had planned to stay in a hotel. MRS. JOHNSON said, Martin is like our own son ,. : j: ; : ; j and it will be difficult to see him leave our home. The Johnsons have three teenage sons, Kurt, Bret and Chris and the four boys have gotten along just great. It was a new experience for both the John-- 5 son family as well as Martin, but a good learning experience for both, stated Mrs. Johnson. - Martins mother, who is a school teacher, was impressed ; ; with the American schools and their curriculum. She Can teH j . - that Martin is doing well and is very happy. He is a senior at 5 C Davis High. His favorite sub-- : ject is history but one cant tell j j f 5 if its teacher. Angie Adams, president: Chantle Malmstrom, vice Its the subject or the HAVING THREE brothers at Davis has given Martin a boost, affording him an opportunity of meeting the students ' more readily and to become a part of the school faster. He is on the high honor roll, is a member of the National Honor Society and Foreign Language club, and on the soccer team. He was a winner of the contest on Valentines Day, having the best decorated Valentine. He also likes to date the girls for the school dances. Many of the American customs are different from his country. One is that in Germany the boys and girls go in groups on date, not alone, to dances and other activities. The girls pay their own way. MARTINS grandmother, in Germany, was concerned ab- out her favorite grandchild going on dates to school dances and also being in a strange country. This bothered her so the grandparents paid for the trip for his mother, brother and sister. Mrs. Ottenhausen smiled when she told of her mother's concern over Martin. Go and look after that poor boy of yours in that far off country, I just know he is homesick, the grandmother said. But grandmother doesnt know how happy Martin is. He stated, I was never homesick, so now grandmother can relax. Martin is the only student at Davis High School from Germany. He feels it is to his advantage. He explained that when you have another person from the same country, speaking the same language, one tends to stay with that person and not associate with other students as readily. MARTINS THREE American brothers think it has been fun to have Martin share their home and be with them at Davis High. They enjoy playing soccer and skiing together. The four boys ski every weekend and love it. It just so happens that Mr. Johnson is on the ski patrol at Powder Mountain Ski Resort, so the boys accompany him each weekend for a day of skiing. Martin said that in Geimany and Switzerland there are more lifts but not as much open space to ski in. He likes the resorts in Utah. When Martin filled out his ap- plication for the exchange program he listed his main reason to come to the U . S . was to play soccer and ski, so his request has been fulfilled. MARTINS MOTHER teaches German in the high school. His father is a business manager of a coal mine. They live in the city of Saarbrucken, on the French border. It is about the size of Salt Lake City. Mrs. Ottenhausen and her sons speak English fluently. Martins father will come to the U.S. in May on a business trip and wiU spend a few days with his son and his American family. Martins mother likes the sunsets here. They all spent Monday evening on Antelope Island. She thinks Salt Lake City is marvelous and enjoyed historic Temple Square, the Brigham Young Monument and the U. of U. SHE SAID, It is interesting to get your very own opinion of the Mormon people. We are Roman Catholic and only once have I had any contact with the Mormons. That was when I was a girl, 14 years old, and I met two Mormon ladies. She is impressed with the Mormon families who live their religious beliefs so exact every day of the week. We only go to church on Sunday, she added. She is amazed how Mormon missionaries go to strange countries and convert people. It must be very difficult for them, but I am amazed at their devotion to their religion, she continued. She and her three children rode the train to San Francisco, Calif. They wanted to com- pare the trains in the U.S. with "those of their own country. She had spent time in California once before. SHE IS amazed at the number of large families in the U.S. In Germany she does not know of a family with six children, most of them only have one and not more than three as a rule. Education is very important in Germany and larger families would not get a proper education. The school system is very different and more difficult. If one fails a class they are required to repeat the entire school year. Martin arrived in Kaysville Aug. 22, 1981 and found things president; Denyce Thompson, secretary. LORI Copperman, this years studentbody president, very different. But now the school year is ending he has mixed emotions about leaving his American family. Carol, his American mother, said Martin loves to eat. He likes American food and is fond of ice cream topped with strawberries, beef jerky, hambur- gers and Kentucky fried MR. JOHNSON served on an LDS mission in Austria and speaks German, so was able to converse with Martin on his arrival in Utah. Martin will leave Salt Lake City in July. His future plans are to attend an American college, possibly the American College in Paris. He enjoys soccer but does not understand the rules of baseball, and likes to watch football. HIS LITTLE brother is an energetic youth of IS and an 8th grade student who loves baseball and American football. His main sport is soccer. It is his first trip to the U.S. Mrs. Ottenhausen and her children will return to Germany with some memorable experiences and a new insight into the life style of the people of this country. MARTIN IS most impressed with the foreign exchange programs that are conducted in the high schools. He said that any student here interested in participating, he would be happy to arrange for them to become an exchange student in Europe or any other country. Mr. Johnson suggested those interested in an ex- change program should check on the different ones offered, there are many, and select the program best adapted to their needs. MARTIN AND his American family took a trip last fall to Yellowstone. He loved it but did not care for the wood cutting for the fire. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson and their six children have found sharing their home with Martin and his family a marvelous experience, one of a lasting friendship, np Honor Banquet CLEARFIELD - North STUDENTS who have been on the high honor roll, the honor roll or the citizenship honor roll twice during the school year qualify to attend the banquet.
