LATIN CLUB Although it is one of the newest clubs in school, Societas Latina, better known as the Latin Club, was organized Septennber, 1943, and is now one of the most outstanding clubs of our school. Passing grades in Latin, plus an interest in the classics, make up the qualifications necessary for membership. The club meets the second Thursday of each month and has for its motto, Possumus quod nos posse putamus (We can because we think we can). The Latin Club has adopted a club pin which signified Knowledge for Leadership. To the most outstanding person, both as a stu- dent in Latin and as a member in the Latin Club, a trophy is awarded each semester. Kathleen Lerbakken will receive the award in the FALL Rae Jean Clement Mary Strand Mary Pat Theilman Paul Volstad OFFICERS President Vice-president Secreta ry Treasurer SPRING Laura Jensen Mary Saam Patricia Field Marna Sannpson June graduating class. The Latin Club, during the past year, has been engaged in many social activities. Its members supplied the checking service needed for the Christmas Party and also helped with the Homecoming Party. For the benefit of the Senior graduates who had previously taken Latin, a banquet was held in May. Of all the important duties which the club has performed, the helping of needy people overseas was the most important. The Latin Club sent C.A.R.E. Packages to a school in Italy which was greatly in need of aid. Row I: Forster, Theilmann, Strand, Clem ent, Miss Gerard, Fremstad, Volstad. G Thompson.

GERMAN CLUB The members of the German Club, Die Deut- sche Gesellschaft, have been very active this year. Their most important project was sending Care packages to needy families in Germany. They also sent school supplies to German chil- dren. Several of the members have been cor- responding with students in German schools, and have received many interesting souvenirs from them. The club business and program meetings arc held on the second Thursday of each month. The club has many entertaining programs, and usually refreshments are served. At one meet- ing Helen Schetter, a former Roosevelt student and German Club member, gave a talk on her recent trip to Europe. Cabinet meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month.
