Wert Collecting French sheet music, playing French records, and keeping a bulletin board were devices which French Clubbers under Miss Mabel Fee used to make the language seem real. Financed by a candy sale, a Christmas box was prepared by members for a needy French child. Speaking French, reports of French customs, and singing French songs were features of a Christmas party and other social events. Besides bringing Caesar to life again, Latin Club members, super- vised by Miss Lois Rinsch, originated sock hops and sponsored candy sales which provided funds for the annual Roman Banquet and sent representatives to Latin conventions. Second-year students planned to journey to Chicago to visit well-known museums and the planetarium. Caroling in Latin highlighted the Christmas program. Page nineteen I l

Stepping down from their roles as instructors, our teachers displayed many talents by public speaking, planning parties, and deciding school issues, as Well as being guiding lights for future pedagogues. A smorgasbord dinner, for example, highlighted an all-city teachers' party held at the Riedman Memorial School in November, under the supervision of Mr. Thomas Hale, president of the Hartford City Teachers' Association. Civic organizations and clubs also invited many of our teachers to speak at meet- ings. Practice teaching under the observant and critical eyes of our instructors Were students from Ball State Teachers College and Taylor University, as the prac- tice teaching system Was renewed after a year's absence. Three substitutes were necessary to fill in for Mr. James Lurtey during his absence because of rheumatic fever. To supplement the state retirement benefits, teachers voted to add federal social security by a large margin of 52 to 8. As Hartford City tutors Went, so went Indiana.
