Last year a number of the people taking Latin I and II tried to introduce such a club, but since it was felt that they could not accomplish anything be- cause they had had so little Latin, the organization was never completed. This year the same group together with Mr. Phipps succeeded in launching the club. The constitution states, The object of this club shall be to promote further interest in the study of the Latin Language, and to make a more intensive study of Roman Life and History. When we consider the thrilling civilization of the Romans more than two thousand years ago, the possibilities of the latter phase of our activity can be seen readily. We have kept our object in mind and have planned our programs with the result that the talks given by the mem- bers have done much to give us a clearer impression of Roman Life and Customs as they really existed in the times of the Caesars. Gther talks have brought out more clearly the methods used in that famous army-The Roman Legions. At the writing of this article preparations are being made for a program that will include both an outside speaker and some of the musical talent of the Latin classes. The Club is also planning to give a humorous playlet before this Techennial is published. In Mr. Phipps' room a number of letters were posted at various times during the year, written by university deans and professors, all of which show that the writers highly favor Latin and the Classics as high school studies neces- sary to a man or woman entering college. Without the aid of Mr. Phipps, who has heartily thrown himself into the Work of the club, we would not have accomplished nearly so much as we have, because a club such as ours meets with many difficulties. This is especially true during the first year when the path must be picked among the rocks which pre- cede the comparatively smooth road of the following years. However, with Mr. Phipps' help we hope that We have conquered the majority of these d'iHiculties, and we are anxiously looking forward to the time when the clubi will be recog- nized as one of the powerful factors in bringing to the students a more valuable conception of Latin-probably their hardest subject. -It is our wish to publicly invite those Freshmen who continue their Latin to become members of the Latin Club in September '23.

' THE PEIUPER CLUB The peculiar name Peiuper,' is derived from an ancient oriental word meaning progress, and we believe that we have lived up to the name of the organization. Since the club of '22 was composed largely of Seniors we were faced with the problem of reorganizing for the year '23. Accordingly, during the second week of school we adopted a constitution to harmonize with our activities. Every month we have two meetingsg one at school and the other in our club rooms at the E. L. Building. Our activities have been along literary, social and athletic lines. In literary work we had debates, speeches and discussions upon our school life, religion and every-day problems. Under the directions of lllorris Shall a minstrel show was given at the J. E. L. Building and the entertainment proved that there is much talent among the members. The Peiuper Club basketball team was one of the outstanding features or the year. Even though small in stature, this quintet made up in speed, pass work and general efficiency what it lacked in size. In looking over our record of excellent display of enthusiasm among the members throughout the year we must not forget to thank the oihcers who so unceasingly worked toward the betterment of both the club and the school. :Giga MSN
