° ° Dedication ... Miss Lois Smades is well deserving of all praise and admiration she has received. Vocal instructor for the past several years, Miss Smades has always been ready to provide choral entertainment for various programs and special occasions. Through her hard work and diligence she has pro- duced an excellent vocal department here at Madera High. Our sincere gratitude and appreciation go along with the dedication of the 1948 Purple and White to Miss Lois Smades.

Princinal To one hundred and fifty-three individuals in Madera, California, the numerals ''48 ' convey a particular set of impressions. For some of that group it was the last year of competition in foot- ball or track at Madera High; for others my big opportunity to take part in the class play ; for still others it meant a trip to Badger Pass on an open truck, and for those slightly more romantic it was the year of a colorful Junior-Senior Prom, or the first real employment in a downtown office with actual cash as a reward. No more B's or C's or A's, just real work and real pay. Then by all means let's not forget that large group of Seniors who have attended a formal class in Spanish, agriculture, mathematics, chem- istry, or Senior problems, for the last time. Yes, ''48 will continue to bring back memories throughout your lifetime and the surest way to make those hazy recollections stand out in bold relief will be to pick up this Purple and White, dust off its much worn cover, open it up, and there staring you head on, will be some slave L. C. THOMPSON, Principal driver, some wolf in sheep's clothing, some friend in time of need, or more possibly, some individual whom you liked so much but knew so little about, Happy memories for your years to come. BOARD OF TRUSTEES, left to right: Fry, Nelson, Sanderson, Miles, Gill.
