When the plebeians refused to rinse the togas, members collaborated in a sa- tirical protest entitled Rinse the Blood off my Toga for the Play Festival. French Club members spent an evening before Christmas singing French carols at Stone Ridge school and in the surrounding area.

Deutsch students with a penchant for culture sparked the German Club, sponsored by Mr. Oliver Hoge, to a study of German Kultur, Wagner and Beethoven concerts, films on the country supplied by the German em- bassy and travel bureaus. They rein- forced their capacity zu sprechen Deutsch by scrabbling for high point scores with German Clubs at other county high schools. 5 Second: K. Bell, R. Spaulding, S. Braymer, H.
