Catin C1116 The Latin Club was set up for the bene- fit of those students who have a special interest in the language and customs of the Romans. During the year members carry out activities which can further their interests. Some of these are participation in Club Night, in the Homecoming Pa- rade, and in a very special event-Latin VVeelc. This week, the third of April, marks the traditional date of the founding of Rome. The club sponsors a bulletin board of interest to the entire student body. In their meetings, members discuss such pertinent topics as Roman dress, cus- toms, government, and religion. Ideas which may be brought up during Latin classes are more fully analyzed in the reg- ular meetings of the club. The endless material in this ancient and classical civi- lization supports an active and always en- grossing program. Since it was started three years ago, the Latin Club has grown to twenty-two mem- bers. Among them are two charter mem- bers, Ioan Sacre and Sherrie Stanton. students.
