Latin Club The art of wearing togas gracefully was a pan of Latin Club initiation, as Nancy Clark and Meg Chaney discovered. Exchange students are interesting, according to Mrs. David Hartman, as she explains hoiv the exchange is possible. Tunics, togas were their togs Still immersed in Grc-t-k and Roman lore, Latin Club members adorned them- selves with black mourning patches to commemorate the anniversary- of Caesar ' s death on the Ides of March. The club also had a Valentine party, conducted a Saturnalia Festival, and had a guest speaker who talked about ex- change students. Latin Club ' s main objective for this year was to add more audio-visual ma- terials to the Latin file. Questionnaires were drawn up by Mr. Leech and the officers, and were filled out by all students taking Latin. The purpose of the questionnaires was to de- termine in what direction the club will move in the future. The club ' s 55 members and sponsor, Mr. John Leech, are affiliated with the Junior Indiana Classical League. Requirements of the Latin Club were to be enrolled in Latin or have com- pleted all offered Latin courses and pay dues to the club. Meetings were con- ducted on the second Monday of each month in the cafeteria.
