Pasadena Nabs Loop Lead
As Glendale Hoopmen Fall
Pasadena Junior College’s Varsity basketeers hooped
their way into undisputed first place in the Metropolitan
Conference cage race when they downed Glendale, 76-70, in
the Hoover High gym Tuesday night.
Breaks Leadership Deadlock
The victory broke a league-lead tie between the two schools, and
avenged a 61-48 setback suffered by the Bulldogs in the first clash
with the Vacqueros this season.

Dinner Honors
CSF Scholars
Honoring PJC’s Sealbearers, a
dinner sponsored by the scholar¬
ship societies is scheduled for to¬
night at 6:00 in the Cafeteria.
Sealbearers have received the seal
of the California Scholarship Fed¬
eration on their high school dip¬
lomas after three semesters of
membership in CSF.
Courtenay Monson, Secretary
of the Board of Education will
speak on “New Lands to Con¬
quer”. All faculty members and
CSF members are invited to the
$1.00 plate dinner.
Dinner arrangements have been
handled by CSF President Law¬
rence Gates, Secretary Elisabeth
Sanders, and Adviser George W.
Josten.
The first Alpha Gamma Sigma
meeting, February 14, honored
126 new members who were for¬
mally initiated. Officers elected
for the coming semester are Mel
Best, President; Renee Rubin,
Vice President; Louise Ricks,
Secretary; and Joyce Stack, Trea¬
surer.
half, Pasadena rallied and tal¬
lied 44 points in the final period
to emerge victorious in the sea¬
son’s wildest scorefest. Close
competition and refereeing ben¬
ched five casabamen before the
final gun ended the. fray.
Noren Leads Scoring
Irv Noren, sensational Pasa¬
dena center, broke all records as
he tossed in 33 points for the
second consecutive time (that
gives him 66 tallies in two
straight Metro tiffs). Lon Rippey,
six-foot-eight guard, swished 14
important digits to help the Bull¬
dog cause. Ron Johnson dropped
in 13.
Lewis Bottled Up
Bill Lewis, Glendale league¬
leading scoring ace, was well
guarded all evening and hooped
only 14 points (mostly on long
shots). Martino was the big
gun for the losers. He chalked
up 20 digits.
The contest was rough and
close all the way. Ron Johnson
and Hal Abbott, who tallied 10
points, both left the game on
fouls. Glendale lost three cagers
via the foul route.
Board Will Name Fate
of Anxious Men’s Clubs
Presidents of the nine men’s restrictive clubs held an off-campus
meeting last Monday, February 18, to draft plans in the event they
would once again become part of the school organization. A Men’s
Restrictive Inter-Club Council (MRICCY) was formed with Clair
“Corky” Kirk elected president, Bob Reed, vice president, Mark
Miller, secretary-treasurer. This council met with Dean Stong and
reviewed the constitution compiled last semester by Vic Asadorian
and Leon Shields.
If the clubs are to come back
Todays Election
Decides Officers
on campus, it was agreed that
they would sponsor and support
such school functions as Red
Cross Night, clothing drives, and
Last Friday, February 15, pri¬
mary elections were held to deter¬
mine minor class officers and
AWS representatives; final elec¬
tions will be run off today.
With the enrollment of ’many
veterans in the upper division,
it was hoped that the juniors and
seniors would be able to equal
the enthusiasm of the lower div¬
ision, but as usual, the younger
half came through on top.
Those elected in the pripiaries
are Freshmen: Mary Masterson,
treasurer; Carolyn Gerke, Pat
Wickersham, AWS reps. Sopho¬
mores: Marjorie Converse, vice
president; Dottie Merrill, trea¬
surer. Juniors: Clair Kirk, vice
president; Die Hawkins, trea¬
surer; Alma Phillips and Beverly
Mancoat, AWS reps. Seniors: Bill
Schubert, vice president; Sunnie
Merrill, secretary; Betty Gavert,
treasurer; Jean Dorland, Betty
Taylor, AWS reps.
Today’s candidates are: Joy
Burke, Bill Carroll, Betty Weber,
Frosh vice president; Marilyn
Chatterton, Joan Keyes, Frosh
secretary; Barbara Jamieson,
Suzanne Johnson, Soph secretary ;
Pat Auman, Barbara Brickson,
Laura Jane Cox, Soph AWS reps.
open dances.
The main points of discussion
were: a system of fair bidding
which would exclude all freshmen
whether or not to conduct a “Hell
week” on campus, and whether
the men’s club pictures could
appear in this year’s Campus if
they became a part of the student
body now.
Dean Stong will take the plans
of this council, the ideas of which
lie along the same general lines
of WRICCY, before the School
Board to discuss them thorough¬
ly; the final decision will be made
in about a week.
Clubs represented were: Am-
phion, Earl George; Argus, Thor¬
nton Mann; DSR, Tom McNair;
Pegasus, Die Hawkins; Phatian,
Mark Miller; MOS, Bob Reed,
OSF, Dick Grayson; OSR, Corky
Kirk; and Zama, Hall Haynes*
The clubs first went off campus
in 1944, when it was decided that
due to the lack of men because
of the war emergency, it would
be impossible to keep up club
membership without rushing
freshmen and maintain high stan¬
dards.

Minority Group Leaders at PJC
Recognized by Council Agencies
Awards were given by the
Council of Social Agencies to PJC
students of minority groups Wed¬
nesday, February 20, at an after¬
noon tea in the Social Hall. Mrs.
Elizabeth Templeton, chairman of
the committee, stated that stu¬
dents were recognized for their
leadership and good scholarship.
A special award was made to
Ruby King who expects to contin¬
ue her work in a university.
Those receiving recognition
awards were Bettye Brown and
Roberta Hunter, seniors; Jeff-
alyn Brown and Jessie Magda-
leno, juniors; Trinidad Duran
and Augustin Pacheca, sopho¬
mores. Other awards were made
to Annie Guttierrez, Charlotte
McAfee and Sarah Sandoval,
freshmen; Myrtle Martin, soph¬
omore; Elsie Baker and Odella
Bartlett, juniors; Alva Delorea
and Ambrosia Maldono, seniors.
Tonight climaxes weeks (and
in some timid cases, months) of
feverish preparation for the semi¬
annual Backwards Dance. Beg¬
ging parental money, borrowing
a car (any car), and stealing
mother’s perfume, PJC coeds
prepare to vamp all available
man power in the one night of
the semester when mama wears
the financial pants.
The stomping ground will be
as usual the Civic Auditorium;
the time from 9:00 to 12:00; the
price $1.00 a bid. Hoagy Car-
michal’s pride and prejudice
(better known as the Teen-Agers)
orchestra will provide a soothing
background to any frayed nerves
present.
Since past experience has pro¬
ved that there is nothing more
deadly to the feminine ego than
a man’s flat “no, I’ve been asked”,
those men already corralled have
been requested to wear cards say¬
ing so pinned to their “middies".
Although the AWS is to finance
this evening venture, if there is
any deficit in the budget when
the books are balanced, it will be
the responsibility of the AMS
board to make it up. Any profit
will be split between the AMS
and AWS.
The Backwards Dance, a high
spot in every semester, will cli¬
max a full day of excitement on
campus, and is one of the most
important events scheduled by
the AMS board to foster school
spirit.
Campus Picture Schedule
Group pictures for the Campus will be taken next week according to the following schedule. A re¬
ceipt for $5.00 will be required from each organization at the time the picture is taken. Receipts are
obtainable at the Student Bank. Pictures are to be taken in the Sexson Auditorium and everyone is
required to wear clothes which will photograph dark.
