Board Checks Senior Class Gives To Mailing Fund
Annual Budget
In a unique, three-hour session
the PJC Board of Representatives
met with the Board elected for
next semester, plowed through
volumes of last minute business.
Cabinet appointments, finances,
and the new budget were all sub¬
jects under discussion.
Cabinet appointments, which
were approved on the basis of
Civil Service Commission recom¬
mendations, were as follows: Sec¬
retary of Activities, Allan Mc-
Cleod; Secretary of Finance, Bob
Ashton; Secretary of Music,
Courtney Eikenberry; Elections
Commissioner, Helen Erb; Secre¬
tary of Notifications, Hope Sch-
linger; Secretary of Oral Arts,
Marjorie Otte; Chronicle Editor,'
Carl Palmberg; Secretary of So¬
cial Affairs, Nancy Young; Sec¬
retary of Organizations, Jean
Bartlett; Clerk of the Court, Vir¬
ginia Dean; Civil Service Com¬
missioner, Betty Lund. Offices of
Attorney General, Campus Edi¬
tor, and Secretary of Athletics
were left unfilled, with the under¬
standing that the new Board of
Representatives would take care
of these vacancies next semester.
Most ponderous task of all was
the surveyal of the budget for
1944-45. The budget had had the
previous work and scrutiny of
the Finance Committee, and the
ASB Cabinet. The report submit¬
ted was tentatively accepted, in
order that it might be ready for
final action by the new Board,
next semester, when Student
Body fees are collected.
The Board also surveyed the
needs, during the summer, of
various activities and organiza¬
tions which would get “under
way” before the actual opening
Most recent contribution td
the Servicemen’s Chronicle Mail¬
ing Fund has been a gift of $25
from the Senior Class. The Sen¬
ior Class in this way expressed
its desire that PJC alumni in uni¬
form should continue to receive
the Chronicle.
Contributions are still needed
for this fund, as no allotment
has been made for it in the budg¬
et for next year. While mem¬
bers of the community have sent
in subscriptions, students have
have been by and large indiffer¬
ent to the welfare and entertain¬
ment afforded servicemen by the
Chronicle. Any student wishing
to send the Chronicle to soldiers,
sailors, and marines may do so
by subscribing $1.00 or more at
the Student Bank.

Leighton Noble Will Play For Senior, Sophomore
Post-Graduation Prom; Theme To Be, 7/We Dood It
An after-graduation frolic at the very swank jaysee prom tops all other “last date of the
year” possibilities for tonight’s graduates. With the final strains of th.e “Star Spangled Ban¬
ner” dying into the sunset, diplomaed-graduates will scurry in a frantic last minute exchange
of bids for the glorified dance, mumble things about “peachy orchids” and soldiers home on
furlough. At nine- o’clock Civic Auditorium doors will open to the formally clad students. To
the music of Leighton Noble and his orchestra, many ex-scholars will dance at their last
bonafide school day’s prom. Many faculty members and Board of Education heads- will be
present at tonight’s dance, which
has been arranged under the
capable direction of the Senior
Prom Committee.
With Frank McCormack as the
able head, others on the commit¬
tee were Grace Atkinson, Nancy
King, Pat Maicy, Elaine Wood,
and Hope Schlinger. The deco¬
rations committee has promised
something unusual besides the or¬
dinary red streamers hanging
from the lights.
Leighton Noble will probably
have many memories when he
plays for the clan of merry JC-
ites, as he himself is an alumnus.
PJC Wins Again ,

ition scholarships and one of the

"Van" Again
On The Rocks
Edwin Van Amringe, for the
past year faculty advisor of the
Pasadena Junior College Chron¬
icle and Campus, is to return to
his work in the Physical Science
Department in the fall semester.
Mr. Van Amringe came to Pasa¬
dena in 1924 as instructor in
chemistry, and two years later
organized the first classes in ge¬
ology. These grew so rapidly
that three teachers were finally
necessary to handle the enroll¬
ment, and a complete group of
courses, not only in geology, but
also in paleontology, mineralogy
and prospecting, were developed.
PJC geology graduates have
always made outstanding records
in higher institutions and in pro¬
fessional work. No other junior
college may send geology stu¬
dents to the University of Cali¬
fornia at Berkeley without de¬
partmental entrance examina-

Final Assembly To Feature Bi-Annual
OMD Tapping Plus ‘ Swing-Outs Of '44'
“Campus”-Iaden students will jam-pack Sexson Auditorium this morning at 10:45 to wit¬
ness OMD’s bi-annual tapping ceremony, last official assembly of the year. Double-featured
entertainment is promised as Bill “trigger” Sanborn, OMD member will present another of
his all-time musical reviews, “Swing-Outs of 1944.” Since school awards were given out at
Wednesday’s assembly, OMD will have over an hour for their tapping and review. Following-
Joe Harbison’s flag salute, Ruth Champlain will repeat the words, “let the tapping- begin
and white-sweatered OMDers will stroll quietly through hushed aisles, tap an undisclosed
number of students. Those rating
the highest of honors that PJC
can give must have at least three
semesters of service to the school
one of which is out-standing.
