The group sponsored one of the first all-school dances and several noon dances. They undertook the job of revising the school handbook, What's What,’ which was not completed during their term of office. After registering the school voters they opened the campaign for the election of new officers. Both the primaries and final campaigns went smoothly with the noon rally and electioneering assembly being very successful. The new semester officers were then elected. The group spent an enjoyable evening at the Club Joaquin in Merced where they had their final gathering of the semester. Installation of new officers during an assembly ended the group's term of serving on the Student Council.

CAFETERIA STAFF GARDENERS Those Who Sowa Madera High could not get along without their janitors. They keep all the floors looking wonderful and take care of all the odd jobs around school. | The Cafeteria girls cook and serve lunches for 200 or more every day. The afternoon girls learn to bake, to decorate cakes, to can and freeze food, to serve at dinners, and to make menus. In Library students are assigned to desk duties which consist of waiting on customers, checking out books and magazines, and finding reference material. Keeping the Library attractive and in order, typing overdue cards, filing magazines in their proper order and keeping bulletin boards changed weekly is another duty. | Students are also given a course in Library training before they are allowed to work at the Circulation desk.

Social Welfare Finance MARILEE GILL PAUL COFFEE NICK ELIAS Girls' Activities Clerk Awards By being elected student body president for the second semester Mary Martin became the first girl since 1944 to receive that honor and the third girl in the history of Madera High to hold the office of student body president. Her ability to preside over assemblies and Student Council meetings, however, was outstanding as that of any boy. Under the leadership of Mary, the Student Council found themselves very busy during the Spring semester. Some of the members attended a conference of the California Association of Student Councils which was held at Fresno High. At this meeting officers of the Association were elected and Madera was honored by the election of Richard Rigby to the office of treasurer. March 19, the Council sponsored a semiformal all-school dance which was called The Bunny Hop.'' The gym was transformed into a veritable bunny-land by the use of appropriate Easter decorations.
