'Gloria
Annual Yule
Production
Date Nears
Come December 13, PJC’s
drama and music departments
will again unite in presenting
their annual Christmas Choral
Drama. This year it is “Gloria.”
Sneak previews of the ritual play
indicate that it is really some¬
thing to sing about.
More definite proof will be of¬
fered Saturday morning, Novem¬
ber 30, when the grand finale
will be presented for the Conven¬
tion of Western Music Teachers.
TWO CASTS
Due to the vast amount of
available talent, Miss Katherine
Kester and Miss Lulu Parmeley,
co-authors and co-directors of the
play, found it advisable to double¬
cast it. Thus, every role will have
at least two interpreters. There
will be four Madonnas: Leita
Gruewell, Margaret King, Doris
Corbett and Barbara Graham.
Norman Boxley and Rodney
Munsen will be seen as Joseph.
The two Prophets will be Rodney
Munsen and Robert Randall.
Sarandan of Chaldea will be in¬
terpreted by Cloyde Howard and
Arthur Weatherby. The “Three”
Kings include Stanley Meacham,
Rodney Munsen, Ray Valois.
Norman Boxley, John Walser and
John Newton. In the role of Ju¬
dah are Arthur Hendirckson and
Jay Harbour. Dorothea Streib
and Esther Tetzolt are the two
Elizabeths. Heavenly Messengers
include Francelia Welch, Barbara
Barnes, Doris Kroman, Frances
Maclaughlin and Judith Ayer.
Soldiers of Herod are Robert
Frame, Keith Dahle, Philip Alex¬
ander and Joseph Bouzek. Last,
but by no means least, comes
Harry Chamberlain, as the play’s
lone Obed. Once having obtained
a part in “Gloria,” a player re¬
tains it throughout his entire
career at JC.
350 IN CAST
Around 350 drama and music
students will take part in the
production. Included are the
men’s and women’s glee clubs of
both campuses, the Nysaean
singers as Seraphim, the Euter-
peans as Shepherds and a proces¬
sional composed of the A Capella
Choir.
Chron Needs Help;
Wants Reporters
“The Chronicle now has sev¬
eral openings, for students who
wish to gain newspaper experi¬
ence working as reporters,” Dave
Davis, city editor, announced
yesterday. “Many of our former
reporters have had to drop out
because of school work and oth¬
er activities, and several of the
more important news beats need
to be filled,” Mr. Davis also said.
Those students who are inter¬
ested in newswriting, or a jour¬
nalism career are urged to get in
touch with the city editor, in the
Chronicle office, room 37 C. No
experience is necessary.

United States Army Planes Roar Over Randolnh Field
Officers to pilot the proposed 12,800 combat planes of the Army Air Corps, the nation’s
new firt line of defense, are being trained in an ever increasing number. Two former Pasa¬
dena Junior College Flying Cadets are among the 266 embryo pilots who are scheduled to
complete the basic phase of their training about November 22 at Randolph Field, Texas,
the “West Point of the Air.” They are William E. Sauit, ’40, and Bill Samways, ’39. Sault
will transfer to the advanced flying school at Kelly Field, Texas, for a final ten weeks aerial
training in formation flying and cross country navigation, both day and night, before win¬
ning his “Wings” and shoulder bars as Second Lieutenant in the Air Corps Reserve. Sam¬
ways has finished this phase of his training.
Earn And Learn
Twice A Year
Quarterly Mag Changed
After Financial Impasse
Latest developments in the production of Campus, the
former annual, occurred at last Thursday’s Board of Repre¬
sentatives meeting. First change was made in September,
when the Board decided that a quarterly should replace the
traditional publication. Financial obstacles and technical dif¬
ficulties having ensued, it has become necessary to produce
Campus in yet another form.
Xmas Stockings
To Be Filled
By Red Cross
Christmas stockings, contain¬
ing small gifts for the sailors in
the San Diego Naval Hospital,
constitute the present Red Cross
project. These men of junior col¬
lege age are away from home
and ill so to help them spend a
more cheerful Christmas, PJC
students are asked to help fill
the stockings.
An eversharp pencil, comb,
key ring, deck of cards, western
novel, address book, handker¬
chief, dominoes, nuts and hard
candy are included in these pack¬
ages.
There must be two hundred of
these stockings filled by Decem¬
ber 13. Students who wish to help
should contact members of the
Red Cross committee. Virginia
Smith is the chairman and Doris
Wirth is in charge of the stock¬
ings.
Due to the recent Red Cross
membership drive there are now
four hundred Red Cross mem¬
bers on the East Campus and two
hundred on the West Campus.
Miss Chase said that the Red
Cross Chapter is highly pleased
with the response. Funds col¬
lected from students and dona¬
tions from clubs are being used
to fill the stockings.
Opportunity For
Ad Salesmen
Chronicle ad salesmen no
longer will be out gasoline and
shoeleather used in soliciting
display advertising for PJC’s
student newspaper. Joe Hob¬
son, business manager, and his
advertising managers, Jack
Herrick and Lee Writer, after
much conferring with faculty
advisers have concluded that
the only fair thing to do is to
pay salesmen 15 per cent com¬
mission on every ad sold.
To make room in the Chron¬
icle organization for the rush
of applicants, the Ad Club will
spend most, of its meeting to¬
day (at 3 p. m. in 207 West
Campus) with signing up of
new salesmen. The Ad Club
was recently organized to pro¬
vide sociability, along with ex¬
perience in advertising and
salesmanship, for PJC stu¬
dents. Lee Writer is president
and Merrill Poore and Paul
Billeter are advisers.

Prelude to War
Discussed By
John Snell
Clearing up many points which
had been confusing to the casual
observer of the European con¬
flict, the Honorable John Snell,
former vice-mayor of Tunbridge
Wells, England, was the speaker
in last Friday’s school of science
discussion period in 200 C.
Mr. Snell, a food administrator
during the first war, recently
turned all his property over to
the government before coming to
the United States.
Discussing the steps that led
to World War II, Mr. Snell said
that a tremendous blow to the
League of Nations, which was
the one hope of a peaceful union
in Europe, was the non participa¬
tion of the United States. France
was splitting up internally, and
Germany had never forgiven
England for her participation in
the war. England was not with¬
out fault, having become vulner¬
ably weak in deseroyers, attack
planes and mechanized equip¬
ment.
Discussing the actual condi¬
tions in England, Mr. Snell said
that Hitler had failed completely
in terrifying the people and caus¬
ing a panic. Most people are
more concerned over the safety
of their pets than of themselves,
and consider such devices as
time bombs “rahtha upsetting.”
Get Together
Westminster,
SCA Panel Discuss
Home Democracy
“Can Democracy Work in the
Home?” is the topic to be dis¬
cussed by a panel composed of
students, faculty, and parents at
a joint dinner of SCA and the
Westminster Club members this
evening at the Pasadena Presby¬
terian Church.
With George W. Marshfield,
SCA advisor, acting as chair¬
man, student leaders Francis
Stevenson, SCA vice president,
and Beth Slagle, president of
Westminster, will make up the
panel, together with Reverend
S. C. Clark, Rector of St. Mark’s
Episcopal Church and Mrs. H.
N. Whitney, member of the SCA
advisory board.
A special feature of the eve¬
ning’s program will be the mak¬
ing of a parent rating chart.
Fifty quotations frequently
made by parents will be pre¬
sented, each student marking
yes or no as per his own par¬
ents’ response.
Beginning at 5:45 p.m. the
meeting is expected to conclude
in time for all to attend en
masse the Tuesday evening Fo¬
rum. Tickets are on sale in the
SCA office for 35 cents and must
be secured by Monday.
Earlier today, between 12:15
and 12:45, the SCA is sponsoring
a Campus Vesper Service in the
social hall, 208 D, East Campus,
to allow students a period of re¬
laxation and meditation. The
public is invited.
Neophytes Quake
At Delta Sigma
Formal Initiation
Delta Sigma, honorary ac¬
counting fraternity of PJC, held
its initiation, of new members
Monday, November 18. Neophy¬
tes pledged themselves to bring
about a greater spirit of good
fellowship toward other mem¬
bers of the accounting profes¬
sion. These new members are
Florence Collins, George Cota,
Catherine David, Sidney Fried,
Lloyd Lisle, Keith Mahaffey,
James Rejebian, Maurice Shan¬
non and William Stumb.
Speaker for the evening was
George Wood, Pasadena certified
accountant, who spoke on the
subject, “The Advantages and
Disadvantages of the Accounting
Profession.”
It was decided that Monday,
December 2, will be the tentative
date for an ice-skating party at
the new Pasadena Winter Gar¬
dens.
200 Biology Students
Seek Marine Life
An expedition of approximate¬
ly two hundred zoology students
PJC’s halls of learning 8 o’clock
Friday morning for a day of
freedom. Alleged purpose of this
migration was the capture of
various shrimps, octopi, mussels,
sponges, etc The expedition
tightly packed in five large
busses, was under the tutelage
and supervision of Dr. Max W.
deLaubenfels.
NEW YEAR’S JOBS
New Year’s Day jobs are open
to men students on the PJC park¬
ing lots. Applications are being
taken at the student body offices
(both campuses) no later than
December 13.
At the recommendation of
Charles Allen, editor of both
Campus and Chronicle, the Board
favored a semi annual production
expected to prove a satisfactory
substitute for both annual and
quarterly. To appear first in Feb¬
ruary, the new magazine will
contain 96 pages, and will be the
approximate size of “Life.” Re¬
sembling the quarterly rather
than the annual, the semi-annual
will provide a cross-sectional but
not all-inclusive review of school
activities, academic and other¬
wise. Photographs will be in¬
formal, and chosen for news val¬
ue only. All copy will be written
in “Life” style, and will be care¬
fully read and rewritten for uni¬
formity. The spring issue, to be
larger than the first, will include
graduating sections of both up¬
per division and lower division.
The new publication, covering
completely the material to have
been included in the four quart¬
erlies, will be better organized
than any Campus heretofore. Ac¬
cording to Editor Charles Allen,
time and effort will be concen¬
trated on quality rather than
quantity.
Cooperation
Monterey Bay
Site of Jaunt
Seeking to help individuals
understand the essential nature
of the Christian religion by com¬
mitting themselves to living this
faith, the annual Asilomar Con¬
ference is an integral part of the
year’s program of all Regional
Student SCA, YMCA, and YWCA
organizations.
Although it has been held an¬
nually for the past quarter of a
century, this is but the second
year that it has been a co-opera¬
tive affair, each person paying
S16 toward board and aiding in
the camp routines. This brings
the cost down and gives the
campers a chance to enjoy the
independence of running their
own conference.
All students and faculty mem¬
bers from colleges, universities
and theological schools are eligi¬
ble as conference delegates. Del¬
egates come from all along the
Pacific coast and as far away as
Hawaii. The conference extend¬
ing from December 26 to Janu¬
ary 2, is held at Asilomar on the
Monterey Peninsula.
Excellent leaders have been
gathered from all over the coun¬
try for discussion groups, lec¬
tures, counsel on vocational
choices, men-women relations,
personal problems, recreational
activities, singing, worship and
living.
