Be Back in Pasa¬ dena High NO SALVAGE DRIVE IS TO BE HELD THIS WEEK Winners in Big Rubber Drive Are Announced; Drive for Paper Is Next on Program Great excitement reigned in P. H. S. and vicinity Tuesday morning be¬ cause of the return of the 364th Di¬ vision in general and of the return of First Lieutenant Seay, 364th Division, Company I, in particular. Lieutenant Seay was formerly the football coach and history teacher in P. H. S., but resigned his positions to go overseas with the colors. Lieutenant Seay returned from France, where he has participated in the Argone, St. Milhiel, Lys, Shelt campaigns, and as a result has many interesting stories to tell of his ex- 1 periences. Lieut. Seay is warm in his praise of the hospitality of the French and Belgians, but is more so of the warm | reception which he received in Los Angeles. The trip across this country was enjoyed very much by the men j of the 364th Division as the govern¬ ment had made special arrangements and everything was particularly com¬ fortable. Lieutenant Seay left Tuesday night for Camp Kearny, accompanied by Mrs. Seay and is expecting to be demobolized by the end of the week. His plans for the future are as yet indefinite. He has qjany fine posi¬ tions awaiting him, but Lieutenant Seay says that he is going to take a good vacation first before he settled down once more to the common round of civilian life. 205A — Mr. Clifton .

The execution was arf outstanding success — so we are told by many of the watchers, and their opinion is ob¬ viously accepted as the truth. At 8:30 the companies formed limply in their respective company streets and stood at the usual absent- minded attention until announcement was made of the grand review which was to be carried out in the pres¬ ence of the Skirt Brigade. The lines underwent a straightening without command. Over in Company 215 Captain Winslow gave "rest” for a moment while Lieutenant Crist drew forth a personal service flag and pol¬ ished his leggins. Captain Gifford j re-dented his sombrero with great ! solemnity and gave orders that his company should “disunite ranks and prepare for a drastic inspectus.” And thus— The cadets pulled themselves to- GIRLS’PRESENCEDRIVES EASTER PARTY ENiOYED BOYS TO GOOD WORK BY MANY SMALL IN DRILL CHILDREN > - Commandant Main’s Army Girls’ League Entertains of Occupation Performs Raymond School Kid- on Field dies at Party Little Mexicans Have Great Time Playing Games on Lawn HIGH SDHOOL GIRLS ASKED TO HELP IN SEWING AT RED CROSS Girls Urged Not to Delay Some Sat¬ urday Morning Surprise When They Will Start Se\vmg By MARIE BUCK Around the edge of the bank on the front lawn was draped a white ribbon fence fullly a foot in height, j and around and around the ribbon marched strong, fierce guards just daring anyone to attempt to vault over the fluttering boundry line.

Sewing garments for refugees is the latest move. High School Girls can do this work and the opportunity is offered every Saturday morning from 9 to 12 o’clock. A surprise is waiting to be sprung some Saturday morning when the long wished for group of High School Girls is assem¬ bled. Don’t keep the surprise or the refugees waiting any longer.

Contest A number of P. H. S. students have shown their good will and school spirit by turning out for debating. The next big feature in this activity will be the inter-class debate, the tryouts for which wil be held -this week and the final debate will .take place Friday, May 2. The subject for ; debate will he as follows: “Resolved, ’i' That the National and State Govern¬ ments of the United States Should Follow the British Government in Its Attitude Toward Unemployment.” Following is the schedule for the try¬ outs: Senior — Affirmative, Somers ; nega¬ tive, Sloan; 4:00 p. m., April 25.

Freshmen— Affirmative, Sturdivant, Rice; negative, Brown, Cartwright; 8; SO a. m., April 25. The underclass men are showing up unusually well this year and undoubt¬ edly will prove good material for the future. The P. H. S. debaters recently went on an excursion to Glendale to hear the Glendale-Santa Monica debate in view of challenging the winner to a debate. It has been decided not to send this challenge, but negotiations are now underway for a debate with Long Beach, and although Pasadena failed to have a chance to beat Long Beach at football this year on account of the flu ban, she will soon have a There is a great opportunity offered the students of Pasadena High School to go to college, for the Princeton Club of Southern California offers a four-year scholarship course at Princeton University paying $250 a year for four years. The scholarships will be awarded on qualifications similar to those re- qnired for Rhoades scholarships. The candidates are required to suceess- j fully pass the College Entrance Board examination, which will be held in June, 1919. Applicants should file with the j committee a letter of recommendation from their school principals setting forth their school qualifications. Such reeoiriinen-dation will entitle the ap¬ plication of the candidate to' careful consideration by the committee. Further information will be gladly given by any member of the commit¬ tee, whose names follow: Lynn R. Helm, 918 Title Insurance Building, Los Angeles. D. S. Hammaek, 419 American Bank Building, Los Angeles. J. McWilliams, Jr., 305 St. Louis Block, Pasadena. This is a splendid opportunity for some boy desiring to go East, and it is hoped that some one in Pasadena can take advantage of it. SOPH PARTY IS SLATED FOR PRESENTATION ON MAY 2 talion formation, company by com¬ pany, facing the dazzling embank¬ ment of the grand stand. (Ten de¬ merits were awarded the owner of a | small voice which suggested “over the j top”). From the center of the stand Arose Commandant Main with a grave -proclamation, followed by a lesson in i saluting while a bugler played “To Jthe Colors.” After this Mr. Wilson Igave a short talk about the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps. Directly after this the forces faced about and went through a regimental parade. The discipline of this part of the review was especially good. The lines stood at parade rest and at¬ tention for over twenty minutes be¬ fore passing the reviewing officers. The saluting was excellent. The band bastinaded across the plains, but retreated when it was found that one of our own troopers jhad fainted. However, lest some one should charge us with having a poor i opinion of the musical corps, we hastened to say that it is the jnost popular amusement on the parade ground. Strike it up, band! The alinement of the companies as they passed the review at “eyes right” was excellent. The step was single and the execution of commands almost free from mistakes. Probably the girls sa w the best piece of marching that was ever done at P. H. S. It is doubtless a crime to forecast, hut probably they also saw the best marching of the year — unless they come again. What an in¬ centive! v Л Sophs Must Pay Dues to Get in on Big Class Party At last the secret is out. Surest thing you know. The Sophomore Party is really coming off, yes, on May 2, in the old library which is to have a spring cleaning and festive dress for the occasion. All Sophomores who have not paid their dues had better look into- the mater as only , those who show their membership cards will be admitted. And because of all the wonderful ideas, new and old, that are to be perfected there are few, very few in fact, who can afford to miss such an event. Anyone de¬ siring further information on the subject can obtain it from any of the class officers. But above all things don’t forget to come, and have your fortunes told, see the latest thing in vaudeville, hear the world famous glee club, thrill at the clang of the Jazz Band, and share the daintly delicious eats. If the water pitcher went to the well would the gas meter? chance to show what she can do along other lines. Ill TOE ON ШОВ FOR ANNUAL Picture Bid for Annual to Be Selected by Vote of Seniors Art Exhibits being the fad and Pasadena High School not wishing to be in the limelight in all such, one of the aforementioned showings has been instituted in Room 108C primarily for the benefit of tired eyed Seniors. With glass doors sheltering the re¬ produced images of now passed-on'P. H. S. graduates the crowds are daily swarming about the case in which are exhibited the various examples of youth and beauty in their sterner mo¬ ments. This sad and thoughtful ex¬ pression has been assumed to show just how dignified this year’s grad¬ uating class may be expected to look after they have posed for Hartsook’s or the Raymond Studio or whatever place is chosen in which to have the deed did. The Seniors have the opportunity to make their choice of photograph¬ ers and ate asked to hand in their candy eggs that the Easter bunny had left especially for him. Of course it takes more than candy eggs to fill up a little muchacho, so ice cream, cakes, and cookies were served. Not the least of the attractions of the party were the members of the committee. In their white dresses they stood out among the tan faces of the children and the blue serge skirts of the envious onlookers. Those who won a corner in each little brown heart by their hard work and their white dresses are Esther Brown, Isabel Smith, Norma Keech, Frances Stough, Nancy Cavanaugh, Margaret Sears, Grace McLemore, Elizabeth Rhodes, Jennie Rhodes, Helen Boice, Jane Goodrich, Martha Curtis, Fern Wilson, Sarah MacDon¬ ald, Louise Walker, and Ruth Kinna- mon. DELEGATES GO FROM HIGH TO E Annual Girls’ League Con¬ vention to Be Held This Week at L. A. High Convention Meetings Open to Visitors on Saturday; Will Last Two Days The Girls’ League Convention takes place this Friday and Saturday, April 25 and 26, at Los Angeles High School. These are the bare facts but a Girls’ League Convention means more than just those three words. It means an opportunity for all the Leagues to exchange ideas and dis¬ cuss problems, it means a dandy stunt party and several other good things such as a banquet. Esther Brown, president, and Eliza¬ beth De Silva, secretary, are Pasa¬ dena’s delegates and no doubt one of them will speak on the work Pasadena has done during this year. The Saturday morning meeting is open to all gifls and it is hoped that Pasadena will he well 'represented.

And when the results are seen — bet¬ ter wait and see. The Girls’ League is planning some new work which will re¬ quire the services of several dif¬ ferent departments of the school. The plan is to make between five hundred and a thousand glasses of orange marmalade which will be sent to the hospital at Camp Kearny, where many wounded soldiers are being taken. The money received from sal¬ vage is to be used to buy sugar; and the salvage department of the Red Cross will donate the jelly glasses. The work will be done by the domestic science classes. So everything is nicely provided except the oranges, which it is expectecT will be do¬ nated by the students; or if gifts are not liberal enough, more can be bought. HAVE MEETING Junior-Senior Party Is An¬ nounced in Class Meeting Jazz Band Entertains Dig¬ nified Order of Upper- Classmen Masses of members and much music , characterized the Junior-Senior meet- j ing which was held in the auditorium after school on April 10. The P. H. S. jazz orchestra furnished snappy music for a curtain-raiser, after which Helen Brown aflnounced the plans for , the Junior-Senior party to be given at j the Shakespeare Clubhouse on May 2. A good program including some clever skits and music and also de¬ licious refreshments will he features of this affair and if .a word to the wise is sufficient all Juniors and Seniore will be there with bells on. The class presidents, Leslie Web¬ ster' and Jerry Boltinghouse, urged all their classmates to show their class spirit by procuring a little card at the pergola for the sum of fifty cents, or in other words to join their respec¬ tive classes at once and replenish the class treasuries. Harold Sloan gave a reading from the popular modern poet, Robert Service entitled “The Cremation of Sam Magee.” Anita Scott, formerly a prominent pen poet of P. H. S. and an essential part of last year’s Jazz Jinkstette, was present and enter¬ tained with a solo of the “Land of the Sky Blue Waters,” and vamped the audience quite completely with her encore, “I’ll Say She Does.” After the regular meeting adjourned the Senior girls remained to discuss the all-important problem of graduation dresses. However, no decision was reached at this meeting. The P. H. S. baseball team took their first step toward the cham¬ pionship last Tuesday afternoon when they smothered the Jefferson squad by the score of 9 to 1, in the first league game of the season. The Jef¬ ferson team was thought to be one of the fastest in the league, but the bulldogs played rings around the vis¬ itors. Every man on the Pasadena nine played steller baseball, and they showed that they had been taught the game by a coach that knew what he was doing. The team showed that they were a hard hitting bunch, for every man got a hit while Captain McNabb and Riddle chalked up two hits apiece. Les Webster pitched great baseball allowing only five scat¬ tered hits. A large part of the time “Les” had the Jefferson men guessihg and at no time was he in any real danger. He pitched steady ball, and received good support at all times, The visitors became dangerous in the first inning when Settles, the first man up led off with a single and reached third. One of his team-mates lined up a long one down the third base line that resulted in a foul, and the inning came to a close with no runs scored. There was no scoring until the third inning when’ Jefferson scored their only run after filling the bases. The Cardinals started things going proper in the same inning when they chalked up three runs. Strick¬ land singled and reached third. He scored on Riddle’s single. Riddle stole second and also stole to third, and he scored on McNabb’s single. A few minutes later Atwell slammed out a pretty double, scoring McNabb. The P. H. S. baseballers came through with another run in the fifth when McNabb slammed out a hit with two on. Pasadena also ran wild in the sixth and eighth innings, scoring two in the sixth and three In the eighth. Taking it all around it was a Veil played ball game( and Coach Harry Trotter cannot be given enough praise for the fast, brainy, hard-hit¬ ting squad he has turned out. Watch the P. H. S. team win the champion¬ ship.
