TRINITY SUUALITY CLUB TRINITY IIBRARY ClUB Cn the first Sunday of each month during the school year, the Young Ladies' Sodality attended 7:30 Mass in a body. Social meetings, which consisted of entertainment by different members, dancing, and refreshments were held monthly. In contrast with previous years, the officers were elected from the Senior Class rather than one from each class. The current year, it has been happily reported, brought forth an increase in activity as well as enrollment from the Library Club. Four committees were formed, namely, the book, scrap- book, publicity, and social. Each group had a special responsibility. The members of the book committee gave interesting reports on best sellers, the scrapbook lads and lassies clipped every item of ublicity pub- lished in local papers, and ofcourse the duties ogthe publicity and social committees speak for themselves.

TRINITY LANGUAGE CLASS Special emphasis was placed on grammar in the English classes. They began with the fundamentals and went through each phase step by step. Diagraming was stressed too. Besides grammar, they devoted part of their time to Prose and Poetry work. Each class studied one classical work. QW' During the spring of '45 the Senior Class proudly gave Uncle Sam three of their fellow-classmen. They headed for the Navy and have since proved themselves worthy of the title sailor First to bid Trinity farefwell was joe Ensenber er who after finishin his boot training and receiving the rating of Petty Ofgcer 3fC was stationed in the Pacific.
