The Latin Club is affiliated with the State Junior Classical League and also the National Junior Classical League. Each year the club sends a representa¬ tive to the State J.C.L. convention. This year, our president went to the Interesting Assembly convention which was held in Richmond. Among the various projects of the Latin Club is an assembly program which is given each year. Also, the club filled a Christmas Basket and collected toys for underprivileged families. A check was sent to Care and a book on Rome, or some phase of it, was given to the Library.

Spanish Culture Revealed Through Club Membership in the Spanish Club, whose purpose is to stimulate interest and create an understanding between Spanish speaking nations and American nations, was open to all students who had one year or more of Spanish. The main project of the Spanish Club was the adoption of Bertha Baena Estrada, a little Mexican girl. The club went Car¬ olling and prepared a Christmas basket during December. Later in the year, members of the club presented the Span¬ ish Club play, which introduced the stu¬ dents of R. B. Worthy to some Spanish customs and traditions. The public en¬ joyed the Spanish Club Fiesta in the spring when students dressed in Spanish fashion presented a supper for their benefit. The Spanish club was truly an important part of R. B. Worthy this year as it promoted the appreciation of Spanish and Spanish customs. D. Comer, C. Rickman, N. Woodward and J. W. Price, N. Hayden, J. Marshall, S.
