Promptly at one o’clock next Saturday afternoon the -whistle will
be blown which will send Coach McAuley’s Bullpuppies into action
against the Long Beach midgets. Win or lose, this begins the program
of the day which not only terminates the football season, but which
witnesss the traditional struggle between two great rivals. Dirctly
following the midget game, the long-waited-for varsity struggle will
begin. A record-breaking audience is expected. So great has been the

Because of the size of the crowd
that has always attended the an¬
nual Pasadena-Long Beach games,
the contest this year will be held
in the Rose Bowl where all may be
comfortably seated. In previous
seasons it has been proved that the
P. H. S. bleachers, although as
large as those of Long Beach, have
not sufficient capacity for the great
crowds that turn out.
The Tournament of Roses Asso¬
ciation is submitting the stadium
free of charge for the day of the
game. Both Long Beach and Pas¬
adena High Schools may keep be¬
tween them $4,000, less printing ex¬
penses and the cost of cleaning up
the stadium after the struggle.
Besides this generous offer, the As-
! sociation has given all rights of
selling confections, megaphones,
pompons, programs, etc., to rep¬
resentatives of P. H. S.

This occasion will mark the first
high school game to be held in the
Tournament stadium.
Student body cards of either
school will be recognized. The
general admission will be 50c and
$1.00 for reserved seats of which
there will be 4000.

III PURPLE IB
Not to be outdone by the Junior
College nor by any other, group
which displays its colors by wear¬
ing sweaters the Senior class
through a committee appointed for
that purpose has arranged for the
purchase of distinctive class sweat¬
ers. This committee is com¬
posed of Donald Hamblin, chair¬
man, Russell Spencer, Willis
Downs, Walter Fell, Betty Rob¬
erts, and Lois Woodruff, has de¬
cided that senior class members
will henceforth be privileged to
wear sleeveless sweater vests of
the class colors, purple and white,
designed in small diamond shap¬
ed checks. These vests will be
for sale at the bookstore soon and
will sell for around three dollars
and a half. This is one of the
most interesting bits of news which
was made public at the Senior
class meeting held last Thursday,
November 6.
Much other business of impor¬
tance was brought up by Jack
Hosford, president, who presided
the meeting.
The Senior entertainment com¬
mittee has been appointed and is
as follows: John Moore, chair¬
man, Doris Clewett, Lois Ewing,
Holly Halsted, Natalie Vincenti,
Robert Lasley, Eugene Payne, and
Jack Hosford. This committee
will direct all Senior social affairs
and entertainments. The first un¬
dertaking of this committee will be
the annual party to be staged
within the next month. According
to committee members, in this
year’s party some entirely new
ideas will be uncorked, something
new, unthought-of, and as yet a
deep mystery to the general public.
The other party to be enjoyed by
seniors is to be given to them by
the Junior class sometime during
the second semester.
The Senior play is to be given
during Commencement Week. An
interview with Murray J. Hill, sen¬
ior adviser, discloses that some or¬
iginal policies will be carried out
in presenting this play. These are
also kept in deep, dark, secrecy.
It is very probable that the seniors
will also put on some kind of af¬
ternoon entertainment sometime
GIRLS TO HAVE ROOTING
SECTION AT L. B. GAME
Each year in Pasadena High
School, Bulldog spirit among girls
has become more and more prom¬
inent until today we have; one of
the snappiest and highest spirited
group of girls the school has ever
known. This fact is proved by
the large number of girls who
signed the pledge circulated by the
Big “P” Club to give their time
in an effort to provide; a girls’
rooting section at the Long Beach
game. Under the direction of Ruth
McBride over 100 girls signed.
Petitions were submitted to Miss
Nellie Greene Clarke, dean of girls,
and J. P. O’Mara, vice Principal,
who approved of the girls’ plan
and encouraged them to go on
with it.
The Big “P” Club laid special
emphasis on the fact that every
girl in the rooting section must
wear her regular uniform and have
a megaphone. Ruth states that
there will be a reserved section
for those girls who will come out
and cheer. If they are g'ding to
sign up merely for the purpose of
being assured a reserved seat, they
are asked to stay away.
during the year as a means of
raising money.
Seniors have been very active in
selling candy and pop at games so
far this year. They plan to end
the football season with a big fi¬
nancial scoop at the Long Beach
game at the Stadium where re¬
freshments will be sold. Donald
Barnes and Ben Solomon have been
in charge of this work.
It was also decided at the meet¬
ing that class dues would be fifty
cents, Douglas Gregg, treasurer,
reporting that membership cards
would be on sale soon.
One of the most important ac¬
complishments of the meeting was
the choosing of a company which
is to take senior pictures this year.
Samples from each of the various
concerns have been on display in
the Student Body office. The
Hartsook Studios were chosen as
class photographers for 1925. The
cost of photos will be from four
to eighteen dollars per dozen for
different sized framed pictures.
With the first dozen a framed en¬
largement is given.
DALLf № TURNS
Bill AS EXPECIED
Starting with picturesque, cost¬
umes in the morning and ending
with a well carried out electrical
display in the evening on Horrell
Field, the rally yesterday for the
Pasadena-Long Beach game was
carried out in a way to satisfy the
most exacting of directors.
Students, not excepting girls,
dug up old relics from attics and
cellars, and found wonders, though
usually in pieces, that worn, made
the visitor to P. H. S. stare and
wonder where he had landed.
Variety was the greatest feature.
Country constables, tramps, lumber
jacks, furniture movers, and coal
heavers were some of the types.
Besides the colonial type represent¬
ed by some of the girls, nearly all
the styles since then did not go un¬
represented.
All the countries that had pic¬
turesque clothes worn by their peo¬
ple had imitators at Pasadena
High. Spain, Mexico, France, and
Italy were among the favored.
Among the miscellaneous types
came the hoboes.
As a substitute for the annual
bonfire, now under the ban of the
Fire Department, a demonstration,
novel in both planning and effect,
was the feature of the rally last
night. A huge crowd turned out,
older folks far outnumbering the
students, that took up every seat
available in the bleachers out back
on Horrell Field.
Mr. O’ Mara was the principal
speaker and gave an inspiring ad¬
dress to those gatnered that will
surely carry over to the games with
Long Beach Lightweights there
tomorrow, and midgets and varsity
in the Rose Bowi Saturday after¬
noon.
Rick Rust was as good as ever,
never slowing up and repeated his
successful rally of last week. Bob
Lilly added his say with effect.
Tuffy Conn made up for his ab¬
sence at last week’s rally.
The display was produced by the
ejection of steam through two pipes
sixty feet long. Colored lights,
flood lights, and spot lights gave
the setting a beautiful effect. Col-
uim torches added greatly to the
effect.
SELECTION OF DEBATING
TEAM MADE IN FINALS
John Ackley and Elizabeth Bix-
by were chosen by the faculty for¬
ensic committee in the final elimi¬
nation debate held last Thursday
to represent P. H. S. in the debate
with Hollywood Friday, November
21.
The affirmative side of the ques¬
tion, Resolved: That a two-thirds
vote of the Supreme Court be re¬
quired to declare an act of Con¬
gress unconstitutional, was upheld
by the winning debaters, while the
negative side was upheld by Laur¬
ence Michelmore and John McClin-
tock.
Both the successful orators
gained recognition last year by
winning for the sophomore class
the inter-class championship.
Elizabeth was on the team debat¬
ing with Inglewood also.
Laurence Michelmore and John
McClintock were members of last
year’s squad.
The team is one of the best
Pasadena High has produced in
the past few years, according to
the coaches, R. W. Canfield and
Mi’s. Irene Sage Peters, who ex¬
pect a sweeping victory in the
Hollywood debate.

Following the short speeches the Student Body office, Jarvis and
made by the advisors, Ted Ham-
brook, treasurer, urged the Juniors
to all join the class at the very
beginning of the; campaign which
began last Monday.
At this point Louis Creveling an¬
nounced that the Juniors were ex¬
pected to give a skit the night of
old clothes day, along with the Sen¬
iors and the Junior College, ex-
Prince, Reed and Miller’s, and at
the Chamber of Commerce.
A point Commissioner Dicker-
man wishes emphasized is that no
special student admission tickets
will be sold as in previous years.
Those not owning Student Body
Cards must pay the regular ad¬
mission of fifty cents.

Shattering all previous attend¬
ance records, the Pasadena Even¬
ing School, under the direction of
C. S. Yerge, principal, has begun
what promises to be a very success¬
ful year with more than 1600 stu¬
dents enrolled.
During the first week of; this
semester, it was thought that inter¬
est in the evening school had died
down considerably, there being but
1200 persons enrolled. Five weeks
caused a great change, bringing in
400 more.
Practically all the courses of re¬
gular day school are offered. A-
mong these, English for beginners,
Woodshop, Foreign Languages, and
Home Economics are by far the
most popular.
