,iii.-..-i- - High-spirited Learning Molds Patient Leaders Both the Interact Club and Spirit In Action are high on dealing with spirit for high school sports, but the two clubs showed they had a sense of to- getherness in dealing with people. Interact is an all-male club which follows the sports teams at OHS and promotes school spirit. The sponsor of the Interact Club was Ron Peyton. The Interact Club had 49 members. The club met every first and third Wednesday of the month at the Ro- tary Club for dinner and discussion about the progress of the club. What do students learn that enter the Interact Club? They learn school support, good moral leadership and participation in a school related topic, said Club President Nicky Nicholas. The Interact Club tried to find pro- jects along the 1977-78 year that would build the club, as well as mon- ey made in the building of the club in general. The Interact Club was in debt at the start of the year due to money spent by the members last year, ex- plained Nicholas. Spirit In Action is an all girls club which promotes school spirit. The president of the club was Susan Shacklett. The SIA was responsible to work with other students and faculty mem- bers to promote school spirit. SIA met every other week during 1977-78. The club had 87 members. Dr. Roy Woodward was the sponsor for the club. Some of the things the SIA did was to decorate the halls of the school be- fore a big game, decorate for parties afterward and just back all of the sports teams at OHS. Student Union is a new club at OI-IS. The student Union was former- ly the Black Student Union. Now the club is open to anyone of either race. The purpose of Student Union is to learn patience and responsibility. Money is raised by such events as car washes and record hops. The mon- ey will go towards a summer prom.

'Speaking In Tongues' Was A Club Requirement What four OHS clubs spoke differ- ent languages, but had a common goal? The answer would be the French, German, Spanish and Latin clubs. All four clubs represented a differ- ent language, but each worked to de- velop fluency and interest in their lan- guage area. Halloween Spook Houses and food tasting parties were just part of the activities experienced by the French Club. The happening for the German Club involved the Singing Valen- tines. For less than a dollar, members of the German Club would call a friend and wish them a Happy Valen- tine's Day by singing a love song. In April, several members of the German Club entered state competi- tion after placing first in regional. The winners were: Kevin Winstead, second,prose reading and third, oral proficiency, Bart Rhodes, second, oral proficiency, Pam Pulliam, second, oral proficiency, Lisa Nix and Pam Wade, third, costume award, Colleen O'Con- nor, first, costume award and second, food award. The Junior Classical League is not an organization for classical piano players, but is another name for the Latin Club. The main purpose of the Junior Classical League is for students who know Latin to get together and share their ideals and knowledge and also to take what they have learned in class and use it in a fun way. At the JCL State Convention in Louisville, Junior Steve Nelson was elected the state President for 1977-78 and also ten members won recogni- tion in state competition. The members to receive recognition were: Bill Taylor, second place in third year Latin vocabulary and first place in Roman Culture, David Parks, first place in second year Roman History, Kevin Anderson, first place in third year Mythology, Keith Poteat, third place in first year Mythology, Ralph Brewer, first place in fourth year de- rivatives, Steve Nelson, first place in third year grammar, Lora Barlow, sec- ond place in third year grammar, El- len Barlow, second place in second year grammar and Susan Lovern, sec- ond place in first year grammar. The main activity of the Spanish Club, with the help of the National Spanish Honor Society, was to spon- sor the 1977 Homecoming Dance. - By Pam Abrams and Kelly Keohane ubs And Organizations 'W-fa Discussing their first-place wins in Junior Classical League compe- tition are fclockwise from leftjz Kevin Anderson, David Parks, ': Sponsor Jean Mill- r and Ralph Brewer.
