Fill-in- the blanks programs drilled syntax and vocabulary. These programs brought this seemingly dead language to life, but David Estep argued, HJust because ifs not spoken doesnt mean itis a dead languageW Spanish, though, was a lot noisier. Because Spanish was a language to be spoken, classes focused on pronunciation. Lynette Henry said, uWe get a Spanish station on our satellite dish, and I like to just sit down and try to figure out what theytre saying. Other students ene joyed being able to talk to their siblings or friends without their parents being able to un- derstand.

Mrs Field, with the help of her husband, provided and programmed Toni Moore four computers which were used to study the ancient ? language.

The same holds true for the foreign language clubs. A student voyaging into a club is required to pay his dues one way or another before becoming a member. The foreign language clubs took different roads to success. As if taken from a page of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, the Latin club, usually an active, vocal group, got off to a rocky start. A number of Latin students who had been club members in junior high school didnit participate in the annual slave sale. The Slave Week initiation was less than enthusiastic. Sophomore Heather Lange summed it up, tilt would have been a lot more fun if more people had partici- pated? The club still raised $436.50, most of which went to a scholarship. The club officers got busy and clarified the by-laws so that, in the future, any member of the high school Unzi ped lips Sharirf; their holiday spirit, members of the French Club sing popular Christmas carols to the residents of a local nursing home. Afterwards, they continued their fellowship at Ferrols. 146 .. Foreign Languages club would be required to go through initiation. Despite the fact that there was a shortage of slaves, the old members amused them- selves by ordering the unfor- tunate ones to perform em- barrassing acts. Heather, who won the slave sports- manship award, commented, ill felt it was a bit degrading, but the thought of being a slave owner next year kept me goingfi Rebounding, the Latin Club soon found success with its Christmas caroling at Liberty House Nursing Cen- ter. After coming in early to practice, the club members displayed their vocal talents as they sang such tunes as tiSilent Night, Holy Nightli in Latin. Following the traditional flow of activities, the Spanish Club enjoyed the same success as in the past. From the Day of the Dead party at Halloween to the Christmas party at Chi-Chils, the club enjoyed feasting on Spanish foods such as enchiladas and is a toga, and a cap is a beret, you know ou're in foreign territory tacos. The earthquake victims in El Salvador were benefici- aries of the Spanish Clubls holiday spirit as $100 was donated to the International Red Cross to help those in need. The French Club also took part in the Christmas season by caroling at a retirement home and then partying at Ferrds later that night. One might ask, thhy did the French Club have a party at an Italian restaurantT Club member Eric Baldwin answered, tlBecause I didnit want to eat snailslii They also sold MSLMls, raising $200 for scholarships, field trips, and parties. Using $835 from the clubs treasury, the German Club planned many exciting activities in the second se- mester when they began to meet more regularly. Cleve Fisher S S i 3 g i Julie Willcox

They were just showing off, all of them. They got up in front of crowds, or simply posted it on the walls. Between the Olympics of the Mind teams and the Art Club, there was quite a show. Practice paid off for Olympics of the Mind teams as Cave Spring placed first and third in the March competition at Roanoke College. Members of the six teams practiced daily after school to participate in such categories as Poetic License, Decision Structure, Omer to the Rescue, and Chain Reac- tion. Team members solved mind boggling problems, or even did a parody of a classic poem, enacting it onstage and often composing their own music. After competing in the initial performance, in- dividual teams were in- terviewed. Points for the in- terview and for the perfor- mance were totalled for the final score. Between artistic endeavors and Olympics of the Mind, Several Art Club members also received awards for their efforts. President Chuck Stanley won a $150 first place award in Roanokets annual AAUW art shows youth division. Honorable mention went to Leigh Williams and Wendy Witch- ger. And yet, the Art Club did more than just compete. From the All-Knight Diner Homecoming float to the April Easter egg workshop, members busied themselves having fun serving the community. f In the fall, Art Club members painted faces at the Penn Forest Elementary School Carnival and later at Cave Spring Baptist Church. On Halloween, the members themselves dressed up, carved pumpkins which they took to patients at Commu- nity Hospitalis Cancer and Childrenis wards, and later celebrated at Pichds.

After skating around on the cold ice, they jour- neyed to the Market Square building to see the Christmas tree displays and to eat dinner. Things warmed up a bit in March as Art Club members finished up the painted signs for the visiting self-study committee, which visited in early April. The colorful signs, sporting the names of the schools departments, were hung at various points around the school to help identify the classrooms. The Art Club held its annual Easter Egg Workshop in April and helped the children of faculty members decorate the eggs. Indeed, the Art Club and the Olympics of the Mind teams had good reason to show off. Ashley Sheets Chain Reaction Front row: Mrs. Bonnie Kelley Scott Chandler, Sharon Lambert.
