6 it me 42 Ztrasdvweetya, this is the announcer-so says the voice from the tapes lis- tened to in Russian class. Today, Latin bridges the present with antiquity HAS SOMETHING new been added to Latin7 No, Latin is still an ageless language with which our parents struggled, we struggled, and our posterity will struggle. Cver 60 per cent ot the English language is derived trom Latin words and this malces the study ot Latin ex- tremely helptul to our vocabularies. Julius Caesar and his campaigns in Gaul are read by second year students atter they have mastered all the coniugations, declensions, and vocabularies. Many mytho- logical characters are brought to lite during the cultural recitations in both Latin l and Latin ll. The Latin Club participates in various activities throughout the year. Among these are the annual Latin Banquet where the tirst year students are sold as slaves, the PowWow, and the cultural trip to Ringling Art Museum in Sarasota. DON'T DO IT yourself, buy a slightly used first year Latin student, shouts King Neptune, as Carol Cipar carries away her new master, Violet Hicks, at the annual Latin Banquet. 70 Languages Mr. Richard Martinez Mr. Frank Fernandez Mrs. John Hernandez Mrs. Alma Benson
