La Marianne Spotlights France La Marianne, Patrick Henry's French club, is primarily concerned with the development of student interest in the French culture, the educational system and the social life in France. At monthly meet- ings students enjoyed films, dis- cussions, and lectures presented by either native Frenchmen, or peo- ple who had spent time in France. Millie Zaech, Patrick Henry's for- eign exchange student, spoke to the French club about her home and family life in Switzerland. At this meeting she was made an honorary member of La Marianne. During the Yuletide season, the club held its Christmas party. At the May picnic at Fishburn Park the honor guest was Mrs. Henriette Fallwell, club sponsor, who retired from teaching in June.

P.H. Latin Club Diligently Backs Classical Doings The Junior Classical League was very active in its second year. The .l.C.L. or Latin Club, sponsored many events to entertain Latin students and publicize the Latin Department. The club, under the diligent sponsorship of Mrs. Nettie Bowles, endeavored to carry out its pledge to the national club of promoting Latin and classical civilizations. Among the numerous activities of the J.C.L. were Latin Week, a Christmas party, and the Latin Banquet. During Latin Week there was a display of Roman objects, all 'Latin students wore Latin Week pins, and each day a famous Latin quotation was printed in the school notices. At the Latin Banquet on May 3rd, members of the Latin Department, other faculty mem- bers, and Latin students enjoyed a dinner in the Patrick Henry Cafe- torium. Attire was ancient Roman, and the food was Latin flavored. At the regular meetings of the Latin Club, there were interesting programs. At some meetings these were games. These included Latin Password, Latin Bingo, and Latin Scrabble. Interest in the Latin Club was very good, and membership was open to all. Everyone connected with the club tried to help develop an awareness of Latin as a lan- guage and to achieve a finer ap- preciation and understanding of the English and the Romance lan- guages. Officers of the Latin Club are Billy Harbour, Treasurer, Joan Kaplan, Secretary, Betty Mills, Vice President, and Rowley Turner, President. This sacrificial altar, displayed at the Latin Banquet, simulates the altars used in ancient Rome. The table contains offerings of salt, fruit, and wine for the household gods. Joan Kaplan and Rowley Turner, dressed in Roman costumes for the Latin Club Banquet, engage in some postprandial badin- age. 78
