AQUILIFERI Since Aquiliferi means Kagle-bearers. the mem-Imts of this dull feel that they upheld Central’s eagle well this year when they sold 1,971 chocolate bars to raise money for the school. The purpose of the club is to offer an opportunity for l-atin students to enjoy plays, songs, pictures, and games, based upon Roman customs, mythology, and history. The candidates for office appear in the Roman Forum” (Room 1221, clad in a toga, and make their campaign speeches in Latin. Other programs include quiz programs and musical numbers, often tape- recorded: special Halloween. Thanksgiving. Christmas, and Valentine — the latter starring Venus and Cupid: a Roman Birthday party; and a senior farewell. Near the end of the year, pins are awarded to the highest ranking Latin students, and certificates of merit are presented to all who have maintained an F. average. The high point of the year’s activities is attendance at regional and state conventions of the Junior Classical league, a national organization of students interested in classical studies, of which Aquiliferi is a chapter.
