The atmosphere was tense as a large stack of dollar bills was placed on the craps table. The dice rolled and seven was the number. Another French Club member was in contention for the fab- ulous prize of two tickets to the Fisher Theater. The most highly skilled gambler won the prize, and the annual French Club Banquet came to an end. Now all that remained were nostalgic memories of red and white checkered tablecloths and candlelight tables set for six. French Club became well known this year for their weekly Thursday morning doughnut sales. From 7:15 to 7:45 the cafeteria was packed with kids eating a wide assortment of doughnuts. French Club also had a serious side. During the year, a pannel of pro- fessors from the University of Michigan came to North and spoke to the per- spective college French students about the difference between high school and college French. John Newman and Rod lVlay start their day off right with a French Club Doughnut. ,iq M- TY

i i E Dan Emmett smiles as he purs a cup of Latin Club cheer. rALIVE 01' FHS Latin Club Members Mrs. Barbara Hill goes over the agenda for Latin Club's ninext meeting with Chris Hooker and Linda Pulgini. Fresh Roman blood was plentiful as seventy- five new members joined the Latin Club this year. The main event, of course, was the Roman Banquet, complete with grapes, slaves, and food. Slaves were first year students in Latin and were pur- chased from a slave seller at the beginning of the supper. All members with their purchased slaves then sat on the floor around a 'circle of tables and large pillows. To rule over the whole event the members elected Calpurnia and Caesar, who helped set off the festive activities. After the feast, gladiator fights and chariot races were held within a circle. The best dressed Roman was selected and crowned with a wreath of olive leaves. Slaves and noblemen alike in the Latin Club sold hot chocolate on cold Thursday mornings to supplement their treasury. They also contributed to Christmas spirit by going caroling and on sleigh rides. In order to better foreign relations, the Latin Club planned to have more joint activities with the French Club in the near future. 51
