The Installation of Officer's was held on January 19th and a good time was had by all who attended. Vocals were performed by Mr. B. Padusa and accompanied by Mrs. Padusa. Miss Kay Tillman played a piano solo for the audience. There were a large number present and refreshment's were served in the dining hall.

In February it was learned that good headway was being made on the Memorial Fund for the Grand Lodge of California, a couple of brethren donated sizeable sums towards the quota allowing Clovis Lodge to breathe a little easier.

In April there was a Western Night and many who attended dressed in Western attire. It has become a tradition in Clovis Lodge for the month of April every year to make it Western month in celebration of the Clovis Rodeo.

In May, the U. S. Savings bonds being held by the Lodge were ordered sold and the money placed in a savings account that would pay interest.

June brought another third degree from the California Highway Patrol Degree Team. There was also a letter from the Sierra Masonic Club that was read and that they were wanting to start a Masonic Lodge in North Fork, California and that they were looking for help in their endeavor. Clovis Lodge committed themselves to help provided the Grand Lodge allowed it.

In October, Bro. Walter Martin, Superintendent of Schools, commented on the U. S. Constitution and there were several musical numbers performed by the Sierra High School Band.

In December a proposition to subscribe to the California Freemason for all of the members of Clovis Lodge was lost in vote.
