The Modern Language Club, a new-comer to the Oakhaven scene, came into being when the already existing Spanish Club decided to incor- porate into its structure those students who were beginning the study of French, a subject new to Oakhavenls curriculum this year. Under the cap- able and inspiring guidance of their teacher, lVlrs. Carol Redd, the students of the two languages are attempting to promote a better understanding of the people and customs of all Spanish-speaking and French-speaking countries. ln keeping with their goals of furthering inter- national understanding, the students of French transformed, for one unforgettably authentic even- ing, the high school cafeteria into a sidewalk cafe. using as the theme for their presentation uAn Evening in Parisfl The romantic atmosphere was completed when French food was served by can- dlelight by authentically dressed waitresses. Also present were a typical struggling artist of the French streets and an apache dancer. The officers of this club are Ronnie Bramley. President, jackie Grisham, Vice Presidentg Wanda Mangrum. Secretary: and Sherry Nixon, Treas- urer. Modern Language Cluli officers have an accidental Nexccutive meeting at the head of the stairs in thi- nc-w junior high huilding.

The Oakhaven Chapter of the Junior Classical League t.l.C.L.D purposes are to add interest and better the under- - standing of classical languages and cus- toms, to create fellowship among stu- dents and to be of service to the school in various ways. The club strives to create W an interest not so much in the literal translation of Latin, but more in the knowing of its authors. The annual Roman banquet is a typical- ly enjoyable example of learning the eus- toms of a Roman meal. Latin Club mem- bers found the custom of dining while reclining on couches during the meals most enlightening. Service projects have been found pleasing and profitable for the club. A yearly project is to aid stu- dents and faculty in easily locating the home addresses and phone numbers of each student by the publication of a High School Directory. The club is extremely proud of an honor brought borne from the Tennessee Latin Club Convention last year. They nominated Tom Nabors for the office of Vice President of the Ten- nessee ,l.C.L. and captured the office with the highest attendance present from any club. The officers, President, Claude Rum- seyg Vice President, Lana Hamberlin, Secretary, Dottie Cambellg Treasurer, Bev- erly Brigham, Historian, Diane Richard- son, find their duties numerous and de- mancling. The day of the gladiator is relived in a conversation among the J.C.L. tLatin Clubl officers. Beverly Brigham and Diane Richardson look on in interest as Claude Ramsey and Lana Hamberlin find amusement in the gladiator and Dottie Campbell's factual information. 43
