on the importance of the Bond

amuse, and entertain the more victory minded JC students who have bought bonds during
the two weeks of the campaign. Entrance will be only for those who have bought bonds, stamps

Seven princesses chosen are

McClung, Ann McCament, and

to a vote for his favorite prin¬
cess. Poll is located between the
C building and the Stu U. The

will be announced at the Rally,
followed by her coronation and
the presentation of her court.
Bonds may be purchased at
the OMD booth in front of the
school or any local bank, at which
time a statement may be signed,

Schools-at-War program of the
Treasury Department and the U.
S. Marine Corps.

ROTC Cadets Escort Dates To Formal Military Ball
Bob Saunders will play for annual dance; Board initiates East Campus sessions ;
Gold Room to be scene of formal affair designates legal parking areas
Handsome, uniformed cadets will escort formally-attired dates tonight to the semi-annual
ROTC Military Ball held in the Gold Room of the Civic Auditorium, and open only to ROTC
cadets. Each guest will be announced upon arrival, and will then present his date to the
receiving line. Those receiving will be Lieutenant Colonel and Mrs. Charles E. Ide, Captain
and Mrs. Laurence E. Ballard, Cadet Colonel Milton Blakeman and Ardys Baird.
Blakeman and his Regimental Adjutant, Cadet Captain John Carpenter have arranged for
Bob Saunders and his orchestra for the dance music.
During the evening the Exhibition Squad under the command of Cadet Lieutenant Aress
Emrie will perform their drill and manuel of arms routine. Following this, cadet officers
will present the traditional Sabre Arch, while ROTC cadets form a Grand March.
The Ball furnishes cadets with an excellent opportunity to use and follow the many rules
regarding military etiquette. Along with a regular curriculum of cadet training, the dance
claims new emphasis in the well-rounded training program of ROTC commandant Lieutenant
Colonel Charles E. Ide.
Lt. Col.
С.
E. Ide, professor of military science and tactics, and head
of the ROTC. Col. Ide is completing his first year of teaching at
PJC, was formerly connected with Los Angeles City Schools. He
is now in charge of the new Army program at West Campus.. .......
Captain Lawrence Ballard, instructor of ROTC. Has been with the
RO boys longer than other instructors, is teaching for the second
year at PJC.
The Military Ball, outstanding social event of ROTC cur¬
riculum, chose this date for their social affair to celebrate
the close of the Annual Federal Inspection.
The Annual Administration and Training Inspection, al¬
ways compulsory for ROTC units was held last Wednesday,
May 12. Inspections are held each
year for the purpose of determin¬
ing efficiency of the units. Results
are compared with other inspec¬
tions held among other units.
Lieutenant Colonel L. E. Patter¬
son PMS&T of Glendale Unified
Schools was the inspecting officer.
All cadets were required to be
present, displaying top-notch mili¬
tary courtesy and neatness.
Battalions were inspected in
turn, Majors Howard Fager and
Richard Knudseri commanding,
and after the formal inspection
detailed assignments given each
company beforehand were car¬
ried out. Time off was given for
lunch, and in the afternoon ca¬
dets were present at theory
classes for further questioning.
Cadets have been looking for¬
ward to the Ball this year with
increased enthusiasm. A semi-an¬
nual affair, the scarcity of school
dances, and the fine reputation
of Bob Saunders along the Pa¬
cific slope have all added to the
entertainment value, along with
cadet contributions.
