Y V On Student Government day, which is sponsored by the Elks Club, students from schools throughout the county took over the city and coun- ty offices for one day. The purpose of this day was to give the students an opportunity to see how our local governments were run. For weeks preceeding Student Government Day, the students elected their officers. A great deal of compaigning accompanied the elections. The results of the Crater High election were as follows: Bob Elden County Judge, John Greb Engineer, Irma Penwell Water Master, Sharon Lilly Sanitarian, David Mack County 4-H Agent, Dennis Kottke Secretary of County Court, Carol Koellner City Observer, Don Hubbard Custodian, and Danny Nolta Constable. These officers took their oath of office on Monday morning. Then half of them went to the radio stations, and the other half went to the television station.

There was a luncheon at the Elks Club for those who wished to attend. During the afternoon the students were given a chance to tour the Court House, the County Jail, the Medford Airport, and the Medford Sanitation plant. The Elks Club also sponsored a Leadership and a Most Valuable Student Countest. Contestants were chosen from each high school by the faculties of their respective schools. These students made scrap books containing their activities and awards. These scrap books were turned over to a board, and the winners were picked from them. Grace Gail won first place in the Most Valuable Student con- test, and Larry Smith was picked as a runner-up. Bob Elden and Sally Elden were both named runner-up for the leadership contest. All four students were presented with watches. 1. X ' .

They are a couple of smooth promoters, and the first thing they managed to promote was a hand-some suite of offices from the wealthy, but homely, Miss Tina Tucker. She immediately took a shine to the professor. ...Audi T0lwlbFfw+wMw Then Bucky set to getting the rich Mary Smithers to invest in a factory for producing the Billingsley Automatic Toaster--which made buttered toast. Mary's young man, Claude Plunker, became suspicious of the pair, and proceeded to unmask the two as frauds. It seemed the only way to keep out of iail was for the Professor to marry the terrible Tina. Finally, in a whirl of excitement, the two set up the factory, and Bucky succeeded in getting Mary's money, and Mary along with if. The cast included Janice Henry, Marilyn Cordy, David Mack, Jud van Horn, Richard Evans, Ron Harrison, Jean Bonnie, Bill Morse, Joan Dobrot, Sharon Lilly.

A s Q O F21 T Q Girls took advantage of the fact that it was proper to invite the object of their affection, but many girls were breaking piggy banks because they had to purchase tickets. Many girls took advantage of the oppor tunity to date boys who were either too bashful, too broke, or just plain not inter- ested during Twirp Season, No new engage ment rings showed up after Twirp Season, but in spite of this, the girls declared it a big success. 12 . .ODD APPAREL The Woman is Requested to Pay was the theme during the Girl's League annual Twirp Season. Twirp Season was held April ll and 12. During those days, all social customs were reversed. Girls opened doors, carried books, asked boys for dates, and played for social functions. The first day of Twirp Season was declared Clash Day, and students appeared in the most re- diculous costumes. Red with purple was considered in best taste on Clash Day. Firday, the second and last day of Twirp Season was bermuda shorts and pedalpushers day. On this day the boys proved more aggressive than the weaker sex, turing out almost lOO per cent in bermuda shorts. Twirp Season was climaxed with a costume ball in the cafetorium on Firday night. Students cavorted and had a ball at this event. gl 7
