You hate studying English grammar Why do this? EGO figures into it. So does the State department of Education. You dont understand? Think again. Clue: the proposed foreign lan- guage guage requirements for gradu- ation — or at least entry to LSU. So. leaming another language will be a challenge. Why not take Erench or Spanish so that you can read a menu at one of the city s tonier restaurants (M.onsieur Patou, Taco Bell, etc.)? Why Latin or German? Oh, yeah. The challenge. Besides, passing those classes in high school will make pre-med and pre-law cur¬ ricula easier in college, right? And don t forget the ego. You ll learn the real meaning of ego trip when you pass the exams. There s no reason to think of it as a dead language, says new Latin in¬ structor Ms. Mona Vines. Latin Club, also known as Junior Classical League, is an active participant in for¬ eign language festivals. Mothing less than superior and excellent ratings were gamered by contestants at the spring competition, which included Latin I and II, grammar, literature and translation. That s an ego trip for Lat¬ in students! Ms. Halinka Mowak, like Ms. Vines, is multilingual. Her German students get a true taste of Germany, as her European accent is authentic. Be¬ sides teaching part-time at Magnet, Ms. Mowak attends Centenary, work- ing toward additional certification. Her students are enthusiastic and talented. Kristina Owen took it upon herself to secure a spot in the year- book. She said that the group may be small, but we do a lot. John Penu- el scored extremely high on the na- tional German test. The stylish Ms. Mowak expects the best from her stu¬ dents and accepts nothing less. WORKS. 100 - 19 ! 4 EGO AMO TE is not the only phrase they know.

French Club proved itself again to be one of Magnets more outgoing organizations. The projects ranged from selling croissants at liomecoming to vlsiting and taking gifts to crippled chlldren at Shriners Flospital. Each member became involved In these projects and played an important role. French Club president Jennlfer Tseng and sponsor Suzie Morisette enjoyed planning and developing ideas into beneficial projects. Part of the re- ward for these Service projects came in seeing the appreciative smiles they got from both young and old. The Club also had a picnic at Betty Virginia Park to celebrate their good work. This year, members of the French Club joined Mademoiselle Morisette in an exciting trip to Quebec. They went sight-seeing and shopping, attended hockey games, and even went ice fishing! The months of preparation and frustration of fund-raisers finally paid off in a fantastic experience. “The trip really brought us ali a lot closer, commented ju¬ nior Michael Anderson. AII in all, the French Club was exceptionally helpful to Magnet and to the community. Not only the officers and sponsors, but also the efforts of the entire club made this year truly successful.
