Hop, Banquet, Meetings
Planned For Coming
Semester
Scheduled for the first six weeks
of the new semester, a matinee
dance sponsored by the officers
and cabinet members of the asso¬
ciated men students will serve as
the first social affair under the
direction of the new officers of the
organization, according to Jack De
Longe, A. M. S. president.
With a father-son banquet sched¬
uled for the second six weeks, a
night meeting early in May, three
regular meetings and many well-
known speakers to be featured at
other future gatherings, the time
of the new officers and cabinet
members will be fully taken up
with these many activities and
others planned for future dates.
Among the well-known person¬
ages and speakers that have prom¬
ised to attend some of these meet¬
ings are Charles Paddock, Mark
Kelly of the Examiner, Darsie L.
Darsie of the Herald-Express, Bill
Henry of the Times, Rube Samuel-
son of the Star-News, and Bob
Ray, who has spoken at previous
A. M. S. gatherings.
New officers of the A. M. S. in¬
clude Jack De Longe, president;
Phil Hawgood, vice-president; and
Ed Barker, treasurer. The cabinet
for the ensuing semester will be
chosen at an early date.
SKATING PARTY
Newman members will “merrily
roll along” at the club’s skating
carnival which will be held at the
Lincoln Park Rollerdrome, Friday
evening, February 8. Admission
tickets are 15 cents for women and
25 cents for men. Tickets may be
procured at the rink or from New¬
man members.
Potlatchers Will
Cavort At First
Party of Faculty
This evening Potlatchers will
cavort in their first “get-to¬
gether” of the year, at the home
of Dr. Henry Weitzel. The af¬
fair, which is being staged by
Cecil C. Stewart, was originally
scheduled for Thursday, but a
conflict with the Elmer Wilson
music series caused the shift in
the arrangements.
“Chief” Stewart has assured
men of the faculty that they will
discover new and different sides
of their cohorts as the informal
activities of the evening progress.
Those planning to attend who
have not notified the “Chief”
should immediately do so.
Superintendent
En Route East
For J. C. Funds
John A. Sexson, superintend¬
ent of schools, and William
Dunkerley, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, left for
Washington, D. C., last Satur¬
day, where they will confer with
Federal authorities regarding
P.W.A. funds for reconstruction
of the junior college.
With the rise in prices which
followed immediately upon the
passing of the school bonds last
fall, government assistance in
the rebuilding program has be¬
come almost a necessity. The
P.W.A. appropriation, which has
been “hanging fire” for some
time, is expected to close the
gap.
The need for immediate action,
if the new buildings are to be
ready in 1935, has prompted Mr.
Sexson and Mr. Dunkerley to
journey east.

Vaccine Use
Told In Talk
Dr. William P. Bliss, using as
his subject, “Immunity from Cer¬
tain Contagious Diseases Devel¬
oped by Modern Science,” gave a
talk to a group of physical educa¬
tion department members, last Fri¬
day during assembly period.
Dr. Bliss, who is a Pasadena
physician, told of the history anl
background of vaccination, and
gave examples of the part played
by vaccines in the three great
wars, the Boer, Spanish-American,
and World wars. He illustrated
how, in the World war, the amount
of diseases communicated by the
soldiers was considerably lower,
due to the greater precautions
taken with vaccinations.

Counselor To
Take Degree
C.C. Stewart To Study At
Stanford; Post Filled
By G. L. Lembke
Cecil C. Stewart, counselor, will
leave Pasadena at the close of the
semester to attend Stanford uni¬
versity, where he will study for a
degree of doctor of education, and
specialize in guidance and counsel¬
ing. He is to take a full time
course, and will study under such
professors as Dean Grayson Ke-
fauver, Dr. William Proctor, Dr.
Harold Hand and others of the
School of Education.
While Mr. Stewart is away, his
position as counselor will be taken
by Dr. Glenn L. Lembke, adviser
to the Chronicle staff, who received
his degree of doctor of philosophy
in counseling and guidance. Dr.
Lembke will continue, however,
with his English and staff classes.
Mr. Stewart plans to live at the
Menlo junior college. Here he will
be dormitory counselor, in which
position he can observe and study
the practical side of guidance. Con¬
tinuous training is necessary in
this type of work.
“Stanford, I believe, offers the
best course in counseling and guid¬
ance of any university in the
West,” said Mr. Stewart, in refer¬
ence to the university at Palo Alto.

Oaths To Be
Administered
In Assembly
Mast and Dagger To Tap
Neophytes; Principal
Will Speak
In the final assembly of the sem¬
ester on February 8, Dr. John W.
Harbeson, principal, will administ¬
er the oath of office to Dave Pat¬
rick, president of the student body;
Trevor Gardner, chief justice; Bob
Baker, re-elected senior represen¬
tative; Stewart McCullough, junior
representative; and John Benton,
sophomore leader.
A. W. S. President Anona Alex¬
ander and Jack De Longe, re-elect¬
ed A. M. S. president, will be in¬
stalled at the first meetings of
their respective groups.
Tap Rites
Leland Houghton, president of
Mast and Dagger, honorary ser¬
vice organization, is in charge of
conducting their bi-annual tap¬
ping ceremonies. Only students
who have given their services to
the school for three past semes¬
ters, one of which has been of
exceptional value to the junior
college, are eligible for tapping
at this time.
Also appearing on the morning’s
program ,will be Jack Talbot and
his orchestra. This orchestra has
appeared at the junior college in
previous performances.
The assembly will be held on the
bleachers at 10 o’clock. Eleanor
Northrup, retiring student body
president, will call the meeting to
order and introduce Dr. Harbeson.
Department
Displays Art
By TAY GREEN
Consisting of some outstanding
California artists’ productions, the
California Water Color society
traveling show is on display in the
junior college art department.
Every year two of these shows are
started on the road, the companion
display to the show now here, be¬
ing in Guatemala. In all there are
50 pictures, creating wide comment
among art critics, which will be
exhibited until February fourth.
Of particular interest is the wa¬
ter color of Miss Jewel Bennett, art
instructor. A landscape of domin¬
ant light trees creates a symmet¬
rical balance, and with the shading
of dark and light color, adds depth
and third dimension. Miss Ben¬
nett’s technique reflects restraint
and smooth workmanship.
Hardie Gramatky, well-known
California artist, offers two excit¬
ing examples of his work. The
first, “Hills in the Spring,” defin¬
itely finds favor or disfavor in the
critic’s eyes. His combination and
shadow-use of greens is strikingly
refreshing. The domesticated hill
design deviates from absolute real¬
ism, possessing rather a loose real¬
istic style.
Of greater value than the
other, Gramatky’s “Storm in the
Canyon,” radiates a haunting
beauty especially to the admirer
of impressionism. Form and
roundness justify the critics’ ad¬
miration, aDong with the toned
gray backgrounds and fascinat¬
ing blend of sunlight color.
Boulevard
An ordinarily common boulevard
scene, recognizable to natives of
Los Angeles, is the painting sub¬
ject of Phil Dike, an artist judged
to be “going places” from his na¬
tional reputation. Almost photo¬
graphically correct because of the
realistic technique and application
of subtle color values, this water
color frankly appeals to the passer¬
by. Trolley wires and car tracks
are commendable in their sugges-

Melodians.
All 13-2’s are asked to attend

Photographers
Urged To Take
Campus Photos
Where are all those vacation
and campus snapshots that you
and you and you promised to
bring for the life section of the
annual? Do you want a collegi¬
ate “Campus,” or one filled with
views of the garden and junior
college buildings? Why not hunt
around the house and find the
pictures taken last vacation or
this term on those pleasure
trips?
Pictures for the life section of
the annual may be turned in
either at the Campus dsek in the
Student Union building or at the
Campus office, 202 Tech building.
Persons appearing in these snap¬
shots should be connected with
Pasadena junior college, or well
known by the majority attend¬
ing this institution.

The second semester will start the following Monday.
The examination schedule is as follows:

entered on the books. Graduation students are urged to attend to
such matters immediately. According to Mr. Anderson, textbooks
must be returned to the teacher before the student takes the exami¬
nation. If the book has been reported lost, a receipt from tire text¬
book room may be accepted in its stead. Rented books are to be
returned with the others.
