Language Clubs Probe Cultural Aspects, Exhibit Various Projects Bringing the French, Latin, and Spanish peoples closer to language students, these clubs offered members an opportunity to learn more about the cultures of the three countries represented. Students discovered new things about these countries. Opportunities ranged from discussing Roman architecture to sampling French cuisine. Members also saw slides and travel films. Students with two or more years of French were of- fered membership in the French club. Under the direc- tion of Mme. Suzanne Kohn, members participated in the traditional ceremonies of Epiphany. A special type of cake was served, and the two people who found an almond in their piece became King and Queen for the day. After weeks of planning, the French club presented Molade Imoginaire, their most important project of the year. Closing the gap between two related cultures, the Spanish and Latin clubs sang traditional carols together at Christmas time. They also compared the customs of Rome and Spain with the customs of modern America.

Band also retained its club rank and met Thursdays during activity periods. Led by Mr. Donald Wells, a member of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, the band grew and improved its musical style.
