TENNIS The number going out for tennis this year was quite large. There were eleven girls and twelve boys. At the first of the year a tennis ladder was formed for the girls. Numbers were drawn by the girls and the ladder started accordingly. By March, when the ladder closed, Jackie Aultman was in first place, Mel- ba Tharp was second, Marjorie Stitt De Hart, third, and Phyllis McClaron, fourth. The boys' ladder was not started until the last of February after basketball season. By the end of March, Duane Collier was in first place, Bill De Hart, second, Bill Davis, third, and Frank Kuhn, fourth. Members of the basketball teams were late getting started, consequently, they had not yet been placed on the lad- der in a definite position. LEFT TO RIGHT: BACK ROW: D. Collier, E. Chicflaw, J.

l The groaning, moaning, screeching of instruments became an important part of this high school in 1931 under the direction of Mr. Russell Welker. The small nucleus of students interesed in this activity grew until it reached sixty-five. The growing pains for the band did not stop with Mr. Welker's resignation because of ill health, but the band has continued in its achievements under Mr. Ralph Bredenberg's direction. Mr. Bredenberg has entered the band in many contests and parades. The coveted second prize was awarded this organization at the Lions Club Convention held in San Francisco last summer, in Stockton recently RALPH BREDENBERG the band was given a superior rating. The band took first prize in the Difecfvf Madera Old Timer's Day parade. The band was also the guest of the Raisin Bowl on New Year's Day, 1948. During this year the introduction ot many clever stunts between the halves at football games became a main attraction for many ot the community fans, Some of the stunts formed were: A heart with an ar- row through it with the band playing Let Me Call You Sweetheart, a pipe with the pep squad forming bubbles and the band playing l'm Forever Blowing Bubbles, a staff and treble cleft with the maiorettes holding notes and the band playing Deep Purple, and on Thanksgiving, a church with a Steeple while the band played a Thanksgiving hymn. The maiorettes with their new uniforms and Jimmie Foster, drum major, added greatly to the attractive- ness ot the stunts and marching technique. Olticers were elected this year tor the first time in the history of the band. President, Harold Rogers, Vice-President, Jimmie Foster, Secretary, Bonnie Harris, Treasurer, Doris Milleson.
