Learnin' my Latin and havin' a ball might well be the theme song for Mission's Aquinites. Deriving their name from the great teacher, St. Thomas Aquinas, the Aquinites claim him as their patron. ln addition to en- couraging the study of Latin, the club presents a Christ- mas play, in Latin of course, and this year a birthday -v' son, Janet Abdalla, Joan Hickey, Carole Platz, Dorothy Kennelly, Helen Hitchcock.

At the back of Mission's auditorium lies the inner sanctum and refuge of that notorious group called the stage crew. All year they were continuously hounded by the heads of both wings with such moot questions as Who took the piano? , Doesn't anything ever work around here? and Who hid the cigarette butts in the makeup! Thus, the innocent crew has been forced to subconsciously strike back at their antagonists. A sudden screeching sound over the P.A. during a stirring admoni- tion being delivered by an irate faculty mem- ber or the sudden failure of the house lights during a parents club meeting may well be attributed to suppressed hostilities suddenly expressing themselves. Ah, but what would we do without the mul- titudinous talents of this hard working group? Ask them to do any iob from polishing the floor to hanging twenty feet off the ground on a scaffolding and they will gladly comply. Obnoxious as it may seem, our stage crew is an indispensable part of Mission High School. looks pretty angry! Kathy Medvetz, Ellen Gutz, Ginger Hoye, Jean Siterlet, Lana Jones, and Stephenie Simmons.

Having a moderator who was born and raised in France, the club learns all about Paris and the customs ofthe French people. Corresponding with French pen pals is an enioyable pastime, and the delicacies of French cooking are sampled when the club visits French restaurants. All members agree that French can be fun-even if you can't speak it. Hungry? Then ioin the Spanish Club and be treated to a delicious dinner of tacos, enchiladas and friioles at El Poche's Restaurant. Aside from being the best fed club at Mission, they also try to improve their Spanish. Weekly conversations enable the members to speak Spanish more fluently, and gives the club a chance to think up a theme for their annual play. This year it was Our Lady of Guadalupe. All members agree that Spanish can be fun-even if you can't speak it.
