Here they discovered the similarity of learning to speak a foreign tongue. At first, English served as the common denominator among the four divisions. But as members became more proficient with their languages, they found that they could exchange a few words with a student of another language, too. When each division took the program for the evening, the history and customs of another land became the interest at hand. Colored slides and a detailed narrative brought a fifth country to the doorstep of T ri-Language League members. Foreign exchange teacher, Mr. Mautone presented a pictorial review of his stay in Belgium for the French night. Christmas time was given the flavor of Mexico by Spanish students at the December meeting. Refreshments, games, and presents all reflected Christmas south of the border . I n March, Latin members celebrated the Ides of March, a Roman holiday, with a re-enactment of Caesar's assassination. Ninety-seven

Nmety-eight Cody's intellectual clubs, Euterpe, T.A.G., and Chess, broadened the cultural interests many students had in poetry, math and chess. Lively discussions on contemporary and beatnik poetry comprisedtEuterpe Club meetings. A study of rhyme and meter taught members the technical aspects of poetry, which helped them compose sonnets and free verse. A trip by the T.A.G. Club to Ann Arbor's Phoenix Project and Computing Laboratory was evident of the future possibilities in math careers. Various club members also delivered informative talks on the intricacies of math. The ancient game of chess became the subject of study at Chess 'Club meetings. A school-wide chess tournament was organized to determine the best representatives of Cody in the city chess match, for which Cody won a third place. T.A.G. CLUB . . . Front Row: H.
