AMS, AWS i Will Hold Meetings Student Groups To Give Entertainments At Assemblies Starting the new year, the A. M. S. and the A. W. S. will hold their respective meetings on the bleachers and in the men’s gym¬ nasium on Fridav morning. Pauline Stevens and Jack DeLonge, presi¬ dents of the women and men stu¬ dents, are in charge of the pro¬ grams arranged. Guest Speakers Having as guest speakers for the occasion Coach Eugene Nixon of Pomona college, Coach Bill Ander¬ son of Occidental college, and Ted Broadhead, graduate manager of athletics of Occidental college, Jack De Longe, A. M. S. president, has arranged the A. M. S. meeting. The subjects for their respec¬ tive talks will be up to the selec¬ tion and discretion of the speak¬ ers. and will be announced at a later date. Also on the program will be the entire Bulldog hand, under the di¬ rection of Audre L. Stong, who will present popular and semi- classical numbers for the enjoy¬ ment of the aggregation.

Library Use Takes Drop Library circulation figures for September, October and November were less than half of what they were last year during the same period according to Miss Winifred E. Skinner, head librarian. Total circulation figures for Sept¬ ember, October and November, of 1933, were 35,950; but for these three months in 1934 they were only 11,352. Miss Skinner is now checking to acertain which, if any, of the fol¬ lowing possible causes are to blame: 1. the location of the li¬ brary; 2. changes in courses and teacher technique; 3. number of working students. LANKY CAGER Captain Crossan Hays, who led the Bulldogs in scoring last Friday night against Long Beach, will lead his teammates against Santa Ana and Glendale this Friday and Saturday.

M. C. A. is opening a bu¬ reau of campus information today in the building west of the per¬ gola that formerly housed the bookstore. This booth is to be an all-year institution, not merely functioning at the beginning of each semester. Serving students with last min¬ ute information on all school events will be the fundamental aim of the “Y” group in charge of the stand. They will also be equipped to han¬ dle late additions to the bulletin which come in after the Monday deadline. There will be a complete map of the junior college campus telling which tents are occupied during the day and showing those available for study. Locations of the offices of the heads of the departments will be listed, and it is planned to sell tickets for student affairs from this point on the campus. Bob Dickinson is chairman of the information dispensing crew, while Milton Valois managed the rebuilding of the stand. Paul Som¬ ers, Y. M. C. A. secretary, assists in an advisory capacity. O. G. Dressier, chemistry instructor, is school adviser to the “Y.” Officers of the “Y” are Vernon Lief, incoming president; Edison Montgomery, present president; Gerry Montjoy, vice-president; Gil¬ bert Brown, secretary; and Paul Smith, treasurer. At the present time in Pasadena junior college, there are five Y. M. C. A. chapters with approximately 20 members in each. Presidents of these chapters are Vernon Lief, Don Mansfield, Ed Brinley, Bob Felby and Paul Smith. Compliments f Gloria ’ Cast Mme. Lucretia Bori, leading soprano of the New York Met¬ ropolitan opera company, dis¬ played her interest in amateur theatrical talent on December 15 at the last production of “Gloria,” when she appeared back-stage at the Civic auditor¬ ium and complimented (he local thespians on their performance. She particularly expressed her appreciation to Virginia Vail, who took the part of the Madon¬ na in the production, and told of her hopes in being able to enjoy future presentations of this kind. Dunnmen Entertain Invaders Cavemen Cagers Sunk; Rabbits Rout Locals; Bullpups Win Returning home, both lower di¬ vision cage squads play host this week-end, Santa Ana on Friday night, and Glendale on Saturday being the visitors. Kenneth Nissley, speedy for¬ ward, will probably be the main cog in the Saint machine. Nissley has been showing up well in recent games. Although they lost decis¬ ively to San Diego, the Saints are expected to prove quite a threat. Strong Bees Likewise dropping their first league contest, the Saint Bees have been improving constantly, and should climb high in the final standings. Coaches Dunn and McAuLey will probably start their usual combi¬ nations against both invaders: Bucheister and Johnson, forwards; Captain Hays, center; and Taylor and Riddle, guards for the varsity; and Captain Wing and Page, for¬ wards; West, center; and Feasley and Schulze, guards for lighties. Saturday night's battle will see both squads tackle the Glen¬ dale Dynamiters in a return en¬ gagement that promises a battle royal. The varsity administered a thumping to the Blasters in the Coast league curtain-raiser, and the visitors would like no¬ thing better than to return with a Bulldog scalp. The Bullpups, however, lost rather decisively, 29-21, and are planning a hot reception for their guests. Smith, Glendale center, and Tay- lor, forward, proved their worth in the first game against the Bulldogs ami will stand considerable watch¬ ing. Bunnies Beat Pasadena’s Bullpups continued their winning ways last Friday ,at Lon? Beach by thumping the Poly Bees 21 to 19 in a see-saw battle that allowed neither team more than a four-point lead at anv time. J The varsity did not fare so well, bowing to a dazzling quin¬ tet, 49 to 24. The Beachers really went to town and plaved some brilliant ball. , P.°'! Schulze, Pasadena guard, tallied five points to lead Bullpup scoring, while Captain Crossan Hays rang up seven digits to top the Bulldogs. Cavemen Crumbled Coming to life with a bang after two successive beatings, the lower division varsity administered a tancy beating to the visiting Hill- toppers from San Diego last Sat¬ urday evening in the local gvm, 50 to 31. * ’ Sid Johnson, local forward, was high point man for the eve¬ ning with 20 points to his credit, while Dick Bucheister found the hoop for 12 markers. The locals were hot and the Hillers had dif¬ ficulty in keeping their score half that of the fast traveling Bulldogs until the last few min¬ utes, when Coach Dunn sent in several subs. Captain Crossan Hays turned in a brilliant de¬ fensive game, as did Johnny Taylor and Ralph Riddle, guards. In a preliminary contest, the lightweights dropped a hot prac¬ tice to the Muir Tech lighties. Now Is Time To Program To facilitate the completion of programs for next semester, coun¬ selors are requesting that students make their appointments for this purpose as soon as possible. Since students from outside schools cannot make their pro¬ grams until the end of the semes¬ ter, all others are urged to make theirs now to avoid the rush at the end of the semester. They can be easily accommodated now, ac¬ cording to Miss Ida E. Hawes, dean of guidance. Bulletins may be obtained at the records office, while appointments are made directly across from window 1, from 7:30 to 9:30 a. m. and during both lunch periods. Pro¬ grams will be made by appoint¬ ment only. BUILDING SOON It has been reported that adver¬ tising on the bids for the recon¬ struction of the Jane Addams and Louis Agassiz buildings will be opened next week.
