Now being upperclassmen the class dove into activities and really showed their enthusiasm in various ways in the latter part of the year. Samples for Junior class rings arrived, style was selected, and orders taken. The rings arrived in early February. The Junior show was presented in May to earn funds for the annual Junior-Senior Prom. The prom was given in June, with all the work involved being done by the Juniors, in order to give the departing Seniors a successful Prom that would be remembered for | a long time to come. Among the many outstanding sportsters in this class are: Lou re Bollinger, football and basketball; ''Bones'’ DaSilva, football and Peet mens rommang basketball; Don Fortune and Lavon Morgan, basketball; ''Peanut'' Aguirre, football, and Angelo Spera, football. Dorene Dufloth ranks high in the music department and William . A. Smith and Harvey Dame in the field of Public Speaking. Sara Pistoresi and Lou Mallory have been two of Madera High's majorettes since their Freshman year.

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.
