THE TRINITAHIAN 1939 YEAR BOCK STAFF The school library, staff headquarters for the Trinitarian, has been a scene of varied and vigorous activity since the mid-year. All phases of publication including financing, literary, photography, compositions were discussed com- pletely and intelligently. The staff is grateful for the kind assistance given by Sister Agnes Cyril and Mr. William Henry. STUDENT COUNCIL This year the Student Council was better organized than ever before. The first and most important duty of its members was to draw up a constitu- tion that would cover everything that was needed for a successful governing of the student body. After a great deal of preparation an excellent constitu- tion was presented to the School Body and was accepted. The next duty of the Student Body was to elect its officers. This was done by having the Student Council nominate the candidates who were to run for office. When this was done, there followed much strong campaigning. Then came the big day for all students to vote for the candidates whom they con- sidered capable of leading the Student Body. This was a very impressive event. All the students assembled in the auditorium and each in turn cast his ballot. The organization accomplished excellent work in government participation. TRIfHI NEWS The need for a student journal was recognized by a progressive-minded student body early in 1939 and this need crystallized in the form of a fort- nightly publication, the TRI-HI NEWS. About 25 pencil-wielding students stepped forward and proceeded to amaze and amuse the student body by turning out the first successful paper at Trinity. To date there have been eight issues and each has been better than the one before it. The TRI-HI NEWS has brought into the open heretofore hidden Writing ability and suggested to the staff members the possibilities of the journalistic profession. At times when the outlook seemed most gloomy, the firm guidance of Mr. Sehulster urged us on to greater heights. , It is the sincere hope of the staff that this publication, the result of their untiring efforts, will never topple, but will remain as one of the worthiest in- stitutions at Holy Trinity High School. STUDENT COURT These distinguished gentlemen are the Iudges of the Student Court. Each class has a representative on the bench. Cases are tried intelligently and with fairness. The student tribunal has earned the respect of the entire school. Page Thirty seven

THE TRINITARIAN 1939 ORCHESTRA This year the orchestra was formed by the high school students under the direction of Mr. Henry. ln its infancy Dr. Mack assisted Mr. Henry in its or- ganization and gave the beginners their start. As the year progressed the orchestra improved. The orchestra made its first appearance at the Christmas play. Since then it had rendered many auditions for the school. THE PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB The Photography Club was organized for the purpose of promoting interest in photography among the students of Trinity High. ln the beginning of the year the members held a bazaar, the proceeds of which they used to buy their enlarger, and printing and developing material. This club has helped the Year Book Staff by taking full charge of all photography for the Year Book, by developing and printing films for the rest of the school, and by increasing their own knowledge and enjoyment. This club has been under the direction of Mr. William Henry, our senior teacher. Mr. Charles Roth, photographer for the Bergen Evening Record, gave this club many pointers. THE FRENCH CLUB The purpose of this club is to gain a better knowledge of the French lan- guage and customs, through singing of French songs, writing of letters, play- ing games, working puzzles, reciting poems, studying and writing menus, studying customs, and conducting meetings in French as much as possible. This club presented a comedy in French called The Way English ls Spoken which was well received by the student body. The faculty advisor is Miss Theresa Granata. THE HELP YOURSELF CLUB The Help Yourself Club is composed of the Senior girls and sponsored by Mrs. Elton Discher. It was organized this year for the purpose of improving social etiquette, charm and development of its members. Books written on these subjects have been read, discussed and studied. Much has been gleaned from the pages of these books. Iudging from the opinion of the Senior boys this club has done a good job. Ladies of the Help Yourself Club continue the good work for the modern World needs perfect ladies today. Page Thirty nine
