Pasadena split loop game win¬ nings with Glendale and Alhambra in her two pre-holiday tussles, con¬ quering the Dynamiters but allow¬ ing the Moors a 32 to 24 victory. Coach Leland McAuley’s tricky little quintet took the Moorlets 33 to 15 as Captain Wing and Page shared point honors by ringing the hoop for 13 counters apiece. The Glendale match proved upsetting as the locals dropped a close tilt. Rabbits Host Long Beach Poly boasts of the Butler pair — Don and Dave — the smooth - working forwards who helped to out-maneuver the Bor¬ der City five to win a 37 to 17 con¬ test. San Diego is rated fairly high because of the ease in which they walked away with the Southern county A. A. U. tournament. Osterholt, lanky tipper, takes care of the center position while Goodlow and Linden hold down the guarding duties. However, Alhambra was just too much for them. The Moors have 1.000 per¬ cent, being the only club to down both its opponents — Long Beach and Pasadena. Bulldogs to Click Coach Dunn will send a highly synchronized machine against the Hares with the hopes of swamping the Beachers. Captain C'rossan Hayes, center, and Sid Johnson, sure-shot forward, will lead the lo¬ cal company to the floor. Bartholomew and Bucheister are staging a mild civil war for the remaining forward berth with Bu- cheister’s charges a bit more pow¬ erful. Ralph Riddle and John Tay¬ lor make up an unbeatable duet for the guarding responsibilities.

Interested Students Are Being Urged To Vote Muriel Cowan, who served as queen j of the -16th annual Tournament of Roses, New Year's Day. She was chosen from the 1000 co-eds of the upper division for the honor. Million Are Subjects Of Rose Queen Parade, Game Climax Of Activities Of Ruler And Court Why vote? This is the query that one finds very prevalent about the Pasadena junior college campus these last few days. There are many students to whom a mere vote is thought nothing. On the other hand there are those members of the student body who very conscien¬ tiously do their part and in so doing contribute to the progress of their institution. If a student is at all interested in the activity of his school, if he wishes to see it governed by the fellow students that he favors and if he wishes to have his school lead all the others in the matter of student government and school spirit, then that is the member of the student body who should and will consider it his duty to vote in the forthcoming election. The most amusing, and also the most disgusting, part of an elec¬ tion is after it is all over. Those who showed no interest on the day of the balloting are always the first to be heard complaining about the individual who was successful over his opposing candidates. These habitual complainers should simply be disregarded. If they couldn’t turn out to support their favorite, how could they expect others to rally to his cause. This last semester the student officers have had to work under a considerable handicap, but all of them came through very well. The facilities for holding class meetings and A.M.S. and A.W.S. get-to¬ gethers weren’t all that they might be, but the leaders of these organi¬ zations presented some interesting programs and thev deserve the highest of credit. Just as these students had a destructive attitude to surmount, the leaders that will he chosen by the coming election will have a con- structive influence to set a pace for them. A newer and better plant will be built and it will carry the name of Pasadena junior college. We will need alert and hard working student officers who will, by their efforts, show the citizens of this city that we are worthy of the ex¬ penditure of this large amount of money. Many of you are not acquainted with the candidates personally. I'or that reason the Chronicle with the help of the individual candi- date has compiled information about each one so that you can judge to a certain degree their qualifications for the office they are seeking Only twenty-five percent of the student body voted last June. Let’s see if we can’t have at least eighty percent this time. There should that many stu<lents wh° are interested in the extra-curricular and student government activities of this javsee With over 1,000.000 peonle, in¬ cluding the governor of California, the lieutenant-governor, mavors of southland cities and the football heroes of Alabama and Stanford her loyal subjects, Muriel Cowan, junior college co-ed. ended a fes¬ tive two-weeks of thrills, Tuesday, as she reigned as Queen of the 4fith Tournament of Roses parade and football game on New Year’s day. Seated on a great throne of stevia and roses, surrounded by her attendants, the queen was the center of attraction for over a million people as she occupied the point of focal interest on the tournament’s Russian Firebird entry, characterizing the “Gold¬ en Legends in Flowers” theme. The float followed the junior col¬ lege band, the official musical or¬ ganization of the parade, in the management division. Leading up to her brilliant reign over the most colorful New Year’s activities in Pasadena’s history, Queen Muriel and her six prin¬ cesses were guests of honor at nu¬ merous civic functions throughout Southern California. The first lady was attended at all of her pre-parade engagements as well as on the beautiful Firebird floral creation in the parade by princesses Catherine Butler, Lu¬ cille Snelts, Emily Bettanier, Shir¬ ley Chamberlain, Dorothy Bruce and Lynn Smith. Selected from this group of upper division women. Muriel was crowned Queen of the 1935 Rose Tourney at the annual cor¬ onation hall at the Civic auditor¬ ium, December 28. The cere¬ monies were attended by almost 4000 persons. As a result of the neat publicity scheme developed to advertise the New Year’s festival, pictures of Queen Muriel and her court, always described as “co-eds of Pasadena junior college,” appeared in prac¬ tically every newspaper in the country carrying any of the leased wire or national photo services. New Year’s Eve Marked By Birth As bells and sirens clanged and shrieked outside in celebra¬ tion of a dying year, a lusty yell was heard within the walls of the Monte Sano hospital. Glen¬ dale, and Robert Edward Corneli- son was born. His father, Ed¬ ward D. Cornelison, is a mem¬ ber of the local faculty, being a technology instructor. The child weighed in at 7 lbs., 4 ounces. Both mother and son are doing well, it is reported. And the father — well!

Most of the amount will be ap¬ plied towards the retirement of the principal involved in the leasing of the land and the purchase of the grandstand as well as the Bulldog Band's excursion to the World’s Fair in Chicago two years ago. The grandstand, without a doubt the largest and most firm¬ ly constructed of all those which lined Colorado street, claimed probably the best vantage point of any structure on the parade’s route. It was built in two sec¬ tions in front of the Union Pa¬ cific depot at the corner of Pasa¬ dena avenue, which afforded a clear view of the procession from the top of the hill at Orange Grove avenue well towards the Fair Oaks intersection. Situated on the Union Pacific’s right-of-way for five blocks south of the parade route and directly be¬ hind the station, the parking sys¬ tem likewise proved extremely pop¬ ular with the public. Student cap¬ tains of the various lots included Charles Casserly, Dea Johnson, Fletcher Haight and Don Blush. The combined grandstand and parking lots were under the stu¬ dent supervision of Boh Baker, senior class president, while Le- l'and Houghton and Bill Moir handled the ticket department. W. E. Wilcox, junior college treasurer, was the general man¬ ager and faculty adviser. In the wee sma’ hours of New Year’s morning a crew of about 50 jaysee students went on duty to handle the ushering and parking of patrons. The parking set-up was handled by Baker, while Houghton held the position of head usher. Another parking lot, managed by Harold Holmes, SERA time keeper, was conducted on the school prop¬ erty on Hill street from Colorado to Blanche. Its proceeds went to the Board of Education’s fund. City Scribe Lands Band For Stunts Erom an article by Irving Eckhoff appearing in the sports section of the Los Angeles Times of Wednesday, January 2, comes the following flattery aimed at Pasadena junior col¬ lege’s famous Bulldog Band. “When bigger and better stunts are performed you can look to Pasadena jaysee's horn-tooters to do the trick. The kids did themselves proud yesterday out at the Rose Bowl. It has been the custom of the Pasadena jay¬ see hand to represent the invad¬ ing team. Let it be recorded that a good job was done, even if two of the kids did slip and fall on the grass during the between halves entertainment.” This was only one of numerous compliments showered upon Di¬ rector Audre L. Stong's aggre¬ gation following their stupendous showing in the Rose Parade and at the Al'abama-Stanford football game, when, with the addition of a few alumni looters the hand became the largest collegiate musical organization in the United States, 240 strong.
