THIS year, as in the past, the Latin Club, or the Carpe Diem, as the members call it, was one of our most active clubs. The Latin Club is an organization which meets together to make the study of Latin more enjoyable. Under the able leadership of Miss Winter and the club officers the members have enjoyed many varied activities. The club has had several parties, a few excursions into New York and many interesting games and speakers. Usually refresh- ments have been provided by the very able refreshment committee. The club officers are called by their Latin name; Consul, Aedile, and Scriba. Some of you might have been able to guess what they mean. The Consul compares to the presi- dent, the Aedile to the treasurer and the Scriba to the secretary. The Consul was Jeanette Pizzatola; the second Consul, Dean Birdsall; the Scriba was Leslie Dickenson; Aedile was Rae Messer, and the two program planners were Sue Houston and Barbara Berbary. Ill

THIS year as in the past the German Club was comprised of many students. During the year they met in room 28 to have fun and learn interesting things. Many times they had films of Germany. This year the German Club went to New York to see “Around the World in Eighty Days” and some German movies. They have also been found ordering many tasty dishes of sauerbraten and dumplings at one of their favorite German restaurants. Every year they put on a Christmas party and sing Christmas songs and carols. A spelling bee is held every year in which all members participate. This year the members elected Mario Salerno as presi- dent, Tom Dennison as vice president, Joy Frei as secre- tary and Vaya Skaketch as treasurer. Under the guidance of Mr. Leusch and Miss Gunther the German Club has been a success as it has always been in the past. 110

French Club 'TOUJOURS de I’activite” might well be the slogan of I this year's French Club, whose destiny was in ex- cellent hands this year. Elected as officers were: Lettie Ritt, President; Lynda Drum, Vice President; Pat Ferri, Secretary; and Ralph Campanella, Treasurer. A committee, headed by Anne Sverdlik, made a puppet troupe. These puppets were cast in a skit written by tal- ented members of the Cercle. (Notez bien—admission to these superb productions was included in the membership dues.) The Christmas party brought out the vocal skills of the members in a program devoted to carols and Christmas customs of the French people. As in the past during this season, they remembered “La Famille, their adopted or- phanage, which is located in Sudan, France. The French Art Theatre saw their bright and shiny faces at its February and March productions. Movies, slides, and talks by French guests rounded out a busy year. Left to right. Row I: P. Ferri, I.
