A N CDFFICE AND LIBRARY STAFF S A very considerable part of the administrative activity at Shafter High is conducted by students. This is particularly true of the operation of the office and the library. Lena Shultz C343 and her staff of student assistants keep all office records, type and distribute notices, check up on absense slips, keep the books for all student funds, distribute detention notices and in a multitude of ways serve to keep the school machinery running smoothly. Besides Miss Schultz, Mr. Janes' secretary, the office force consists of Willie Steele, Rubena Peters. Geneva Payne, Rosie Unruh. Velma Trent, Billy Bradley, and James Reily. The responsibility for the running of the library-involving the cataloging and checking of books, Cll3,1'g'llT1g' them out, stocking the magazine rack and filing the copies, has been borne by Essie Ruth Mayfield and her staff of period librarians. The entire group, and Essie Ruth in particular, have performed valuable service in caring for the reference needs of students. All library rules have been evolved in staff meetings and are well administered and well respected. Next year the library will be increased by at least one new section. The present shelving is crowded and mangy accessions in reference and standard fiction works are contem- plated for the fall term. The staff consists of Essie Ruth Mayfield, Jimmie McClure, Irene Wilson, Alma Penner, Dorothy Johnson, Norma Lea Cloud, Barbara Caldwell, Rhoda Kirschenmann, Gladys Breckenridge, Elsie Bergen, and Ruby Ayres.

l GIRLS' LEAGUE President - IRI-:NE W1LsoN Vice President - DOROTHEA PEAK Secretary-Treasurer ROSIE UNRUH Chairman ---- REBA EVANS The Girls' League, which is an organization made up of all the girls in the school, has been very active this year. Our monthly meetings are made more interesting by a program presented by different members after the business meeting. The league gave a Christmas party for all the members of the student body, probably the most successful party of the year. They held several pie sales and also a rummage sale, from the latter of which they received about thirty-five dollars. They used some of this money for a cover for the couch in the gym, and with part of the remainder they sent three of their members to the Girls' League convention at Visalia. They also contributed money to the Red Cross fund. The Girls' League, under the advisership of Miss Goode, feels that the group has accomplished much this year and hopes that the League next year will carry on. PAGE TWENTY-EIGHT
