CHALLENGES AND FOREIGN CUISINE WERE A SLICE OF THE ACTIVITIES FOR THE LATIN AND FOREIGN LANGUAGE CLUBS The Latin Club experienced a moderately active season, but the twelve talented Latin scholars put membership at a maximum. West's Latin teacher Mrs. Madsen advised the Club's activities which included a sledding party at the U of A ski hill as well as the Latin Christmas Dinner which was hosted during the Christmas vacation. Mrs. Madsen looks for an even greater response next year. Prospects look good , responded Madsen. The Club has proven that Latin is indeed very much alive-in the hallowed halls of West Valley.

.,,,. 'Gln M NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY COMBINED THE OLD AND THE NEW TO MAKE FOR AN EXCITING AND ENRICHING YEAR With Sponsor Sally Allison at the helm, the lneput Chapter of the National Honor Society launched itself into another exciting and productive year. The group planned many activities for the year, some traditional and some new and original. Among the new and original was the first NHS hayride. Those who took the lengthy ride in the back of the truck enjoyed throwing hay so much that the hayride may soon be a tradition with NHS. In the traditional role, the NHS sponsored the Annual Progressive Dinner and the Faculty Tea. The Progressive Dinner, celebrated as a complete success, boasted good food and company. When asked why the Honor Society put on these activities, President Rachel .Lindemann replied, We just do it for fun and because it is traditional. Also contributing their leadership to the group were Vice-Presidentg Lory Barsdate, Secretaryg Mark Lewis, Treasurer: Hans Stragier. Juniors who have maintained at least a 3.5 grade average or better may be inducted in the spring of the year to carry on the tradition of these outstanding students at West. FRONT ROW: Mrs. Allison.
