For Tour years They have Taken on Their Roman bearing. Miss l-luTT Tounded The club The TirsT year oT her Teaching. There were TorTy charTer club members. The charTer oTTic- ers are Evelyn Gehl, presidenTg Merlin MoThs, vice-presidenTq Viviane Geib, secreTary-Trea- surer. WiTh The able help oT Miss l-luTT These charTer members sTarTed Their club wiTh a bang. A consTiTuTion and by-laws were made ouT Tor The iudicial and execuTive running OT The club. AlTernaTe Thursdays were designaTed as The LaTin Club nighT. Many liTTle slciTs have been presenTed by The LaTini. In The second year OT The club's exisTence a Tull lengTh play abouT a girl, Margery Brown, who couldn'T concenTraTe on Caesar was presenTed. Ma- dame Grammar came To her aid and showed Margery, wiTh The help oT all her Tenses and coniugaTions, iusT how imporTanT and inTeresT- ing LaTin and Caesar were. This play was The biggesT LaTin evenT oT The year. The LaTin Club had a Roman banqueT on May TiTTh. The Treshman LaTin classes were slaves, garbed in shorT whiTe Tunics, who broughT The Tood To Their masTers and misTres- ses, reclining on The Tloor nexT To low Tables. Roman Tood was served, buT The l.aTini were noT required To eaT wiTh Their hands --Though many oT Them did. Mr. McLane, The guesT oT honor, looked guiTe regal in his Roman cos- Tume. LaTer, a busT oT Caesar and some Roman painTings were unveiled and They now adorn The LaTin class-room. This banqueT was such a success ThaT iT was repeaTed This year and will probably become an annual evenT. Daphne Huber, PresidenT, Virginia Sonner- ing, Vice-presidenT and Bernice Voelcs, Secre- Tary-Treasurer are The leaders OT The sevenTy- Tive acTive club members. WiTh such a colorful background These modern Romans are sure To become one oT The ouTsTanding TradiTions oT The school. IHE NINETEEN HUNDRED AND FORTY-ONE BEND Page TwenTy Tve
