Most of the term was spent in planning the Shield which was not an easy task to do as there were many changes made.

The Shield staff includes: Miki Fishel, edi- tor; Bob Cuthbertson, senior editor; Betty Cal- fee, activities editor; George Walker, humor editor; Phyllis Schimpff and Jimmy Shallen- berger, co-business managers; Eugene Pleau and Louie Fara, co-sports editors; Ken Nelson, candid shots editor; Ruby Fara, accountant; and Miss Kathryn Daly, adviser. Assistants were: Elda Marello, Pat Leake, Steve Ewing, Gloria Filice, Jim Elliot, Bob Kates, Don Batchelder, Audrey Everitt, Betty Griffin, Peggy Shackleford, Dan Strong, Jean Nelson, Ray Walker, Dorothy Odell, Marilyn Fuglestad, George Waddingham, Dorothy Brandenburg, Muriel Brisbin, Lyman Ing- raham, Pat McQuiston, Thelma Messinger, John Nicol, Bill Ratto, Jane Rude, Armand Turley, Bob Moore, Allyce Campbell, Lois Crigler, Paul Maerklen, and Kathryn Swearin- gen.

“ SCRAM!” ee es bas 0.3 THE MEMBERS of the L. O. L. Club, which is the largest girls’ social club in the school, are again watching the term end, leaving behind warm and exciting memories, yet already look- ing ahead to next term. The Spring term is the most active time of the year and includes at least one all-day pic- nic. This year the picnic took place on April 26, the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Girl Reserves. Also marking this event was a trip to the Stanford Chapel to attend a G. R. Vesper Service. The first party was the reception party. This party honored the 30 new members of the club. Later events were the Valentine party and a series of talks on personality. The annual Senior Banquet was held May 14. At this ban- quet eight seniors were honored. They included Krla Creason, last term’s president; Patty Spurr, present president; and Catherine Pou- los, Francis Margorati, Etta Lee Perry, Laura Jackson, and Mary Hart. All activities were supervised by the three club sponsors, Mrs. Lowe, Miss Parker, and Miss Carlson. Ces Camera Club... THe CAMERA Cus had a very active term un- der the capable leadership of their president, Richard Johnsen, and the able direction of Mr. Bush, faculty adviser. Richard Johnsen was assisted by Jim Toms, vice-president, and Flor- ece White, secretary-treasurer, in carrying out the program during the year. Field trips were made to Fishermen’s Wharf and to the U. C. Campus. After each trip con- tests were held by the club and prizes were awarded to persons taking the best pictures. Several pieces of equipment were added to the darkroom during the term by the club. Demonstrations were given by the students and Mr. Bush on different phases of darkroom work at each meeting. The Camera Club took its own Shield picture as one of its activities. The club had its semi-annual party at the last meeting at which time the prizes for the last contest were awarded. Winners of the pre- vious contest were as follows: Ken Nelson, first prize; Richard Johnsen, second prize; and James Cahoon, third prize. Members not shown in the picture are: Ken Nelson, Ross Chamberlain, Rudolph Nunez, John Enright, Bill Hricz, and Annette Kaplan. “And did you hear the one about
