DATE STILL UNDECIDED
Piece Has Plot Augmented By
Colorful Costumes and
Dances
To replace the annual opera,
Pasadena junior college music de¬
partment will present “The Rose
Maiden,” musical fantasy by Fred¬
erick Co-wen, at a yet undecided

rector of the presentation.
Don No vis Stars
This will be the ninth production
of the music department, its prede¬
cessors being: Hadley’s “Fire
Prince” in 1924, with Madaline
Richardson and Robert Snyder
playing leads, while Don Novis and
June Etienne starred in “Once in a
Blue Moon” in 1925.
In 1926 Don Novis and June
Etienne again headed, the cast in
“Marriage of Nanette,” with Novis
and Virginia Yerxa leading in
“Briar Rose,” the 1927 offering.
Pilsen Last Year
Don Novis and June Etienne
again played stellar roles in “Maid
of Tokyo” in 1928, while 1929’s
production had a Spanish setting,
the opera chosen being “Rose of
the Alhambra,” with Harold Thom¬
son and Elizabeth Settle heading
the cast.
Victor Herbert’s “Red Mill”
played in 1930, headed by Alice
Ashley, George Cones, and Jud

tion was “Prince of Pilsen,” with
Bob Hendricks, Florence Oberle,
and William Probosco in the leads.

BAND PLAYS
CONTINUOUSLY
Usual Routine Discarded in
Favor of Uninterrupted
Fairyland Music
Relief from the usual parade
band routine was given by the Bull¬
dog band in the Tournament of
Roses , this year when the P. J. C.
musicians innovated the stunt of
playing during the entire parade
route, rather than punctuating
drum rythmed marching with an
occasional song.
To work out this continous pro¬
gram, Misses Yvonne Livingston
and Maxine Tolies gave several
Mother Goose dances to the ac¬
companiment of an saxaphone
octette. A marimba, mounted on
an Austin truck followed the
marchers.
Two Glockenspiels were also in¬
cluded in the band’s equipment.
This curious string instrument is a
rarity in bands over the entire
country and those used by the crim¬
son bandsters are the first on the
coast. They will be used hereafter.
After the parade the Bulldog
musicians represented Pittsburgh
in the Rose Bowl for the football
game. Their stunt before the game
was acclaimed by the 85,000 spec¬
tators.
The band outnumbered the fam¬
ous Trojan band of U. S. C. and
other organizations in the parade
and, Bowl. For this fine showing,
American Legion Post No. 13
drew up and presented a resolu¬
tion congratulating P. J. C. musi¬
cians to Dr. J. W. Harbeson, prin¬
cipal.
Lovell Hidenlang
To Head Y.M.C.A.
The local Y. M. C. A. will hold
its first meeting under its newly
elected president, Lovell Hidenlang
Thursday in the social hall.
Leonard Dome, Norman Wilson.
Charles Wright, and Clifford Cave,
delegates to the recent Asilomar
conference, will speak on the high¬
lights of the event.
Harbeson Speaks
To Alumni Group
Dr. John W. Harbeson, president
of the Junior College association,
revealed his reactions of Abraham
Flexner’s book, “Universities;
American, English, German,” at La
Verne alumni division of Institute,
December 22. He also presided at
the regular junior college session.
Demonstrating the physical ed¬
ucation department, Miss Loreta
Hendricks presented a dance fete
at Bonita high school, La Verne.
All P. J. C. teachers attended the
compulsory training classes in Los
Angeles.
MID-YEAR GRADS
Candidates for February
graduation must call immed¬
iately at the records office to
check their cards, according to
John A. Anderson, dean of
records.
News Channel
Undercurrents
Oily rags and shavings were
carefully hidden Wednesday during
the technology department’s open
house, and budding engineers, avi¬
ators, etc., were busy at seemingly
difficult tasks.
Full moons have always been
popular among young people, but
to a star-minded few, moonlight
will no longer be interesting, as
they will associate it with hours
of neck-breaking peering into
telescopes, and hours of nerve-
racking mathematics figured in
the company of spiders and other
bugs.
When four pretty girls, arrayed
in army uniforms, pose at atten¬
tion for nation-wide newspaper
photographs (their pictures ap¬
pearing in the New York Times
and similar journals), and the re
nowned Tournament of Roses floats
are almost entirely covered with
junior college co-eds, the world
trembles at the thought of its loss
if there were no P. J. C.
Activity Slips

siring to run for student body of¬
fices are due today for the follow¬
ing offices: president of A. M. S.

Late Economic Fad
Discussed at Meet
Technocracy was the drawing
card at the last International Ques¬
tion Mark meeting. A record
crowd of 45 attended in the cafe¬
teria committee room each lunch
period to hear R. S. Ashley and
Leon Yakeley of the social science |
department speak on the latest
economic fad.
The first meeting of this year

portant economical and political
.news events of 1932, such as the
Manchurian situation, South Amer¬
ican revolutions and the war debts.
