csluclenld Spiritual Uounci! Officers! 3 5 Kathleen Fogarty Joanna Maze Maureen Hester Joan Hesselschwerdt Secretary President Vice-President Treasurer 50 fedud Ulzrough .Mary As the Student Body is the body, so the Students Spiritual Council is the soul of the school. Through its many and varied activities, it has fostered the spiritual growth of its members, both as a whole and as individuals. As a matter of fact, it sponsors so many activities within the school and with the other Catholic high schools, that it keeps Joanna Maze,her officers and the six cmnnit- tee chairmen on the go continually. Of the activities within the school we remember the fun we had on S.S.C. Half Day with all the booths and raffles and noise, the crowning of our senior candidate as queen of the May, the lively discussions at the meetings. We were proud of the money we could send to the missions and happy when the results of the Bishops' Relief Fund drive were announced. In our committees Catholic Action was the Cry: singing at old peoples' homes, selling Catholic Christmas cards and books, reciting the Rosary daily in the Chapel, sending clothing and food to foreign missions, and making altar linens. A new and important activity was introduced this year. Two Holy Family Sisters came each Thurs- day to conduct Confraternity of Christian Doctrine classes. Armed with certificates received at the conclusion of these classes, thirty-one HNHS students will be able to share with others their Catho- lic instruction and training in a more efficient manner. Pastors should find them better prepared now to teach catechism in their parishes. Aside from activities within the school, together with the other high schools of the Bay Area the S. S. C. sponsored a fashion contest of modest formals. Then, of course, there were the Federa- tion meetings culminating in the big Federation in San Francisco. We recall the inspiration received from hearing the high ideals of students our own age. And now all these activities are drawing to a close. The final Federation has passed, the May procession has come and gone, we have attended our last committee meeting. But the activities and ideals of the S.S.C. will stay with us alwaysg because all of them--interest in the missions, devo- tion to Catholic action, love of our Blessed Mother and her Divine Son--have become our ideal for a lifetime.
