Club Celebrates Latin Week with Roman Banquet Comprised of all students taking a Latin course, the Latin Club promoted an interest in and appreciation of the Roman civilization. Club members were responsible for individual projects which pertained to the ancient Roman culture. These projects helped promote a better understanding of the classical way of life and the effect which the Roman culture has on life today. During North Carolina Latin Week, these projects were dis- played, and the members participated in a Roman Ban- quet. Members also attended the state convention held in Chapel 1 lill in the spring. Latin Club mendwrs Dan Brown, Kaye Smith, and Lynn Mathis create a V a]enti;ie bulletin board for the club. Portraying a Roman marriage ceremony at the Latin banquet are Herman Kistler, Karen Woody, and Vann McGee. Page Twenty-six
