Abstract :
We briefly describe the two electromagnetic calorimeters each made of 200 lead glass blocks used at SLAC to discriminate between electrons and pions and to measure electron energies. Procedures to reconstruct electron showers and to calibrate calorimeters are treated as well as the calorimeter performance
