Latin - Victorious Cata Pult The Latin Club's activities through the year were filled with many ex- citing things that the entire club par- ticipated. The club displayed their talents by participating in a cata pult contest against MacArthur and Eisenhower. Without batting an eye, Nimitz was victorious. They also at- tended the lunior Classical League Regional Gulf Coast convention for competition in acadmeic, art, and costume events. At Christmas, the Latin club enjoyed themselves at the Foreign Language Banquet. Students must be taking Latin or have taken it in the past to belong to this organization. Also one must at- tend all the planned activities since it is part of the club's requirements. Xgyfgg Y 3. 168 Organizations .A ,,.- ,lm ' . 4 it . ,W ' All W ' i 'IK g V- M .. V. A -www RWM 1 , .

-1- S.A.D. Happ to be S.A. . Each year many lives are taken away because of the use of drugs. Whether it's drunk driving, or drugs such as mari- juana, LSD, or cocaine. Many of the lives could have been saved if action would have been taken. This year at Nimitz such action has already been put into effect. Mr. john Pecoraro and Coach Kirk Hall, sponsors of Students Against Drugs, have required members to sign a form committing themselves to fight against drugs. Also members wear t- shirts displaying their cause, As the year progressed more students began to take action. According to Principal lack Welch, he would like to have as many students involved at Nimitz to join the new club. 3, 51? I ' nll 1.
