Universal, Modern Languages Sfudied The Suitland High School Bible Club listens to one of many guest speakers invited to their club during the year. Mrs. Duke and the members of the Spanish Club prepare for a humorous skit. The Bible Club was one of the more serious clubs at Suitland. By participating in Youth for Christ activities, and having guest speakers at their meetings, the Bible Club became fa- miliar with the teachings of the Bible. The club sponsor was Mrs. Hewett. The new Modern Language Club is divided into the French and the Spanish Clubs. Mrs. Duke was the sponsor, and Jeanine Hicks and Joanne Rosetta were the presidents of the French and Spanish Clubs, respectively. Both clubs strive to improve their speech and vocabu- lary through reading. practicing conversation, and giving skits.
