Journalism Staff Launches “Clarion” “The pen is mightier than the sword,” eleven high school journalists firmly believe. Armed with their pens, the members of the “Clarion” (meaning a battle cry) staff meet to keep the school in touch with the news. They take turns at interviewing, editing and covering special events. The school paper has been revived after two years of silence. The staff completed several newsprint editions of which Trinity can be proud. The “Clarion” staff includes Scott Peterson (Editor), Holly Hargis (Assistant Editor), Andrea Lyall, Martha Moock, Mike Lamb, James Davidson, Becky Grimm, Dee Hill, Dana Chiattello, Lockette Meador, Crissy Meroney and sponsor Martha Eubank. Special thanks to Audrey Sato for designing “The Clarion” banner! Activities 193

Reflections Staff It’s 2:00 A.M. — quad-paks everywhere ... “Where’s a cropper when you need one?” “Who’s the jerk that lost the stamp?” “Do not wander in the halls, do not pass go, do not collect $200.” “This is a class like any other class” ... These are all well-known statements among the 1982-83 yearbook staff. Being on the Reflections Staff requires patience, skill, and the ability to work well with people. There is a great amount of pressure, especially before deadlines, and prayer is a must. Yet, in spite of all this, the staff has lots of fun and there is a great reward in being able to see the result of one’s work. A special word of thanks goes to Mrs. Underhill, the yearbook sponsor, Mrs. Sides, the business manager, and Mr. Linebarger, the photography director.

Student Council The 1982-83 school year was an active foundational year for the Student Council in which many new policies were established. The most important addition was a document which outlined Student Council responsibilities, purposes and pro- cedures. Another important policy deci- sion made by the Council was to add an ex- ecutive council of three or four people who will aid the officers in determining the agenda for meetings and in making sure the decisions of the Council are carried out. The Council also chose a faculty representative for a school disciplinary committee. Student Council planned T.C.A.’s Homecoming activities, and all- school skate, several dress-up days, and sponsored a fund-raising drive for charity. Council members also were responsible for collecting ticket money at football and basketball games.
