The Art Club The Art Club is made up of boys and girls who want an extra opportunity to do art work. It meets Tuesdays, dur- ing fourth period. The 2 5 members are guided in their work by Miss Blu- mert, the art teacher. The Art Club projects for this year were: Halloween win- dow painting for the South Berkeley Merchants Associa- tion; 70 Christmas and 5 0 Easter posters and 136 menu covers foi the Veterans ' hospitals; bids for the Rally Com- mittee, Girls ' League, and the FI-9 Dinner Dance, and the printing of the Target cover. The Art Club serves the school and the community and at the same time its members have fun. Frances Clark, President. The main purpose of the Camera Club is to teach students how to take better pictures. Also, we try to learn how to use different cameras. We try to widen the use of our own cameras by using added attachments such as lenses, filters and flash. Our members make use of what they have learned by taking candid and action shots for the Target. We take pictures at school dances, assemblies, special events, and on Spring Day. Paul Hofmann, our able President, has served the Camera Club well during this past year. We wish to thank our members, the faculty, Mr. James, our advisor, and Mr. McClellan for making this a successful year for the Camera Club. Judy Ward, Secretary. FHA Through participation in the Future Homemakers of America, Willard girls are preparing for the most impor- tant occupation in our country — that of homemaker. Chapter activities this year have included a cookie sale, a joint installation service with Burbank, and a Christmas party for mothers of members. In the fall, two of our members attended a two-day state convention at Asilomar. In March, seven girls jour- neyed to San Francisco to an all-day section meeting. Our club is looking forward to its third year at Willard. President Muriel Nelson Vice President Judy Miklebost Secretary.

Student Control The purpose of our student control organization is to promote the safety and welfare of each student while passing in the halls between classes and during the double lunch periods. Student control officers are also responsible for the proper use and parking of bicycles on the school grounds. Student control officers are authorized to issue tickets to these people who delib- erately break the rules of the school. Before a ticket is issued, the pupils are given a chance to try it over if they have done something wrong. But if these pupils continually break the rules, they are issued tickets which are sent to the court where these students are tried by the student court. The Student Control Officers also serve as Junior Traffic Police at street crossings, insuring the safety of the students while they cross the street. It has been very enjoyable serving as Chief of Police at Willard this past semester and I wish to extend my sincere gratitude to Mr. Burke, Mr. McClellan, and the faculty for their cooperation, and also to my fellow officers. The ranking officers who served during the past Studen t Council The Student Council is the governing body of the school. It is headed by the President, Vice President, Secretary and the other Committees and their com- missioners. The Student Body or Council is made up of Representatives from every Advisory. These Repre- sentatives from the Advisories in turn are assigned to different Committees on the Council. We have enjoyed very much working with Mr. Sitkin, Mr. McClellan and the rest of the Faculty during the past semester. Dick Adachi, President.
