These Pretty Girls Are Rose Court Finalists
Judges Name Court, Not Queen
Editors Proved To Be 43 Per Cent
Correct In Rose Queen Release
Last week, the Chronicle hazarded a guess, published its
selection of the semi-finalists for the Rose Queen. Announce¬
ment of the real seven this week by the Tournament of Roses
judging committee proved PJC prognosticators only 43 per
cent right. Though the Chronicle picked but 3 out of 14 pos¬
sibilities, one of these three, Pat Hops, Elizabeth Allensworth
or Dottie Young, may yet carry off top honors as queen.
Junior Red Cross
Project Completed
Girl’s of Pasadena Junior Col¬
leges’ West Campus clothing
classes have done their good deed
for the day. Under the sponsor¬
ship of the American Red Cross
the girls have completed twenty
tailored bed jackets for disabled
veterans of the San Fernando
government hospital and the
Whipple Barracks of Tucson,
Arizona.
Under the capable direction of
Miss Ruby Purviance and Miss
Myrtle Cole, instructors, the
class completed the Red Cross
project in a week’s time.
BOUGHT BY RED CROSS
The cotton materials were pur¬
chased by the Red Cross and
sent to Mr. Garfield W. Eade, a
local manufacturer, for cutting,
then to the west campus art
clothing classes for completion.
According to Miss Cole these
garments will be worn by tuber¬
cular patients who sleep out of
doors. Miss Cole also stated that
this was not a new idea but one
that has been carried on in past
years by Pasadena Junior Col¬
lege and the Red Cross.
Newman Club
To Initiate Neophytes
At Columbus Club
Extending an invitation to all
Catholic students to attend, the
Newman club will hold its for¬
mal initiation this Sunday at the
Columbus club in the Arcade
building.
The province officers of the
Newman Club Federation are
scheduled to begin the ceremony
promptly at 8:15 p. m. Urging
everybody to come on out and
make the Newman Club THE
club, the new officers will pre¬
side at refreshments and dancing
afterwards.
Flu Epidemic Puts
Ban On Triad Exams
In a last minute release to
faculty instructors, the Admin¬
istration announced that on the
recommendation of Dr. Kin¬
ney, school physician, second
triad exams would be omitted.
Instructors have been asked
to report D, E. and F grades
on December 17, as planned,
determining as best they can
these grades without the regu¬
lar triad examinations. Grade
reports will be given to stu¬
dents as soon as possible.
Sophomores and Juniors were
represented in the final selection
by three members from each
class, the ‘Class of ’43’ this week-
proved to be Sally Stanton, Ann
Stratton and Dottie Young, each
short, sweet and seventeen
The Junior misses of the Court
are Elizabeth Allensworth, Ellen
Harrnon and Claudine Radeke, all
beautiful, queenly possibilities.
Pat Hops, senior, blonde, tall and
regal, is last but not least of the
seven.
The Tournament is essentially
the same today as it was in 1890,
when Pasadenans festooned their
buggies with garlands of flowers
and paraded down the main
street, then as now, a queen led
the procession; then too, sports
were the climax to the celebra¬
tion. In those early days, a queen
was chosen from the society girls
of the City, but since 1932 PJC’s
co-eds have vied for Royal hon¬
ors.
Muzzy Marcellino's
Sweet-Swing Band
To Play For OSF
Standout dance of the year is
always the OSF open which this
season is being held in the fa¬
mous Pasadena Masonic Temple
,at 200 South Euclid avenue.
Tomorrow night at 8:30 Muzzy
Marcellino’s sweet-swing orches¬
tra will play for the guests of
PJC’s big OSF club. Tickets for
the dance have been on sale for
weeks, last sales will be today.
Probably one of the most elab¬
orate lodge ballrooms in the
country is that of the Pasadena
Masons. In this aristocratic at¬
mosphere PJC students will
dance until midnight.
/GSoria/ Has
Keen Interest
For City
In the late fall of 1933, along
with all the glittering tinsel, gay-
ly colored lights, and thronging
crowds of Christmas, a new show
was born, which each year has
been growing in popularity, un¬
til it has now become an honored
tradition, not only of PJC, but
of many surrounding communi¬
ties.
From the beautiful prologue
through its inspiring ancient He¬
brew songs, the temple scene of
a thousand years ago, to the cli¬
maxing. grand finale, “Gloria” is
a beautiful pageant presented
every other year by the combin¬
ed efforts of art, music, and
drama departments of Pasadena
Junior College.
WORSHIP SERVICE
Givdn not only as an entertain¬
ing pageant, but also as a wor¬
ship service, each year a minister
from this city has given the invo¬
cation address.
The far flung arms of the Stu¬
dent Union financing have not
missed any organization, because
of this “Gloria” will for the first
time take up a silver offering at
its performances.

SCA Holds
Bi-Mlonthly Forum/
Discusses Baptism
Religious traditions, such as
baptism and communion, were
the topics of discussion last week
at the Student Christian Associa-
group met at a member’s house
group met at a members house
from 7:30 to 9:30. The topic wav¬
ered back and forth for the pre¬
scribed two hours and by the
time refreshments were served
it was decided that religious be¬
liefs are important to society as
a whole.
The purpose of this discussion
group, according to George
Marshfield, advisor of SCA, is to
start open-minded clear thinking
in a cooperative committee dis¬
cussion. Anyone interested is
welcome to attend.
