Arlan Franklin and Peggy Taylor patronize the Lost and Found booth maintained by Commissioner Corky Fletcher and her helper Jeannie Peek. 32150 and 430 lives-one of the greatest projects in the history of the school. Many male members of the student body evi- denced a new interest in education on March 17, when the feminine contingent took over the school on their annual Girls' Day. A talent assembly, a junior-senior basketball game, and a luncheon were added features of the dayls activities. Winter and Summer get together as Mary Lou Narve- son and Joyce Marcoe, Girls' League presidents for '48, compare notes. Vice-president Ginny Hunt listens in for a few helpful hints to use in her own job. The girls had scarcely had time to step out of their roles of administrators and teachers before the familiar vegetable corsage marked the occasion of the yearly Cotton 'n Cord, always one of the most eagerly awaited events of the social calendar, and a fitting close to an ambitious year for the Girls' League. SUMMER CABINET-ROW 1: Boyer, Irwin, Melstrom, MacNee, Rice, Boyer, Freeman, Davey. ROW 2: Wendell, McHugh, Dodds, Narveson, Hunt, Farrell, Cross. ROW 3: Miss Brian, adviser, Turner, Fletcher, Ware, Frantz, Reiff, Parker, Tileston, Nelson, Clifford.

Popular Joye Marcoe and Miss Brian-two who make the Girls' League tick. Together they organized their cabinet into such a smooth unit that few realized all the hard work behind the scenes. Samohi bows to beauty and brains! Every day is ladies' day with them - and these sugar and spice certainly provide lots of things nice for Samohi. President Joye Marcoe wasted no time in getting the girls off to an active year with an early scheduling of the Big Sister Tea, In rapid suc- Girly, Lea ue cession came the ever popular Spinsters' Skip and an assembly featuring Catherine Leonetti of the Leonetti Charm School. The new tips on charm must have worked with susceptible males, for the joint party held with the Boys' League was most successful. Off with the old! On with the new! Time for the annual Girls' League fashion show, and raptur- ous co-eds and their guests watched as thirty-two Samohi models brought the new look to Barnum Hall in an advance showing of new Easter fashions. But even the feminine love of finery could not halt these busy girls who next undertook a Christ- mas Cheer drive dedicated to Navajo relief. Elec- tions followed shortly, and the semester was brought to a close with the installation of the new cabinet. How many lives have you saved aren't words which Samohi students shall easily forget, for these words' keynoted the UNESCO drive, highlight of the second semester Girls' League activities. Sparked by the concentrated energies of Prexy Mary Lou Narveson, jerrie Frantz, Carolyn Wendell, jean Goen, and Miss Brian, adviser, this campaign netted WINTER CABINET--ROW 1: Nelson, Wendell, Tileston, Turner, Marcoe, Cross, Ross, Farrell, Hayden. ROW 2: Narveson, Dodds, McHugh, Reiff, Weiner, Ware, Frantz, Hunt.
