VOL. XIV
PASADENA, CALIFORNIA, OCT. 6, 1922
No. 5
100 NEW MEMBERS
FOR STUNT RODY
That 100 new members have joined
the Student Body since last Tuesday
was affirmed by Martin Scott, Com¬
missioner of Finance, today.
The progress of the 400 member
* campaign was declared encouraging,
but the rule forbidding the issuing
of duplicate Student-Body cards in
case of the owners losing them has
caused considerable worry.
“The finders keep the cards and the
rightful owners must either buy new
" memberships or miss the games,” ex¬
plained Martin Scott.
No other plan has been suggested.

BULLDOG JRS. TO
ВАШЕ
WITH FRANKLIN GRIPPERS
According to all the pre-season dope
the lightweight game with Franklin
High next Thursday will be a tough
battle. Captain Dick Hassler’s bull-
pups are full of fight and “rarin’ to
go.” Commenting on the game, Bud
Hoff, lightweight manager, says,
“Both teams have showed up well in
practice games and the score will
probably be close.” The lineup is not
yet certain as there are two good men
for most of the positions. The only
players who have their positions
cinched are “Touchdown” Hap Kelly
and Capt. Dick Hassler. The game
will be played on Horrell field.
Candidates for Senior class officers
were announced by Oliver Prickett,
last year’s president, in the Senior
meeting last Wednesday. Those run¬
ning for the honor of guiding the
class of ’23 through the coming se¬
mester are Joseph Sill and Jerome
Young. Both fellows are popular on
the campus. Joe, it will be remem¬
bered, is the state champion plunger
of last year, but has never here-to-
fore entered class officer* elections.
Jerome was elected president of the
class in his Sophomor year.
For vice-president are three candi¬
dates: Winnifred Clark, Olive Ham-
brook, and Allie Purvis.
Two more girls are running for the
office of secretary. They are Estelle
Bassett and Helene Burns.
For the position of treasurer are
two candidates, Robert Kohler and
Roderick Ward.
The elections will take place some¬
time next week.
Usually egotism and real merit do
not co-ordinate, but tend to separate
one from the other.
CADETS RECEIVE PAY
WHILE IN COLLEGE
Military Training Enables Cadet
to Draw $150 in Cash
Each Year
A CHANCE TO MAKE GOOD
Col. Barlow Desirous of Helping
Fellows Who Want to Help
Themselves
Colonel Barlow is very desirous that
members of the Sophomore and Junior
classes should know that thd|re is a
money value, while in college for R.
О.
T. C. work. A student of Pasadena
who graduates and goes to college,
will, if he has had -two years of R. O.
T. C. work in high school, be allowed
credit for one year of R.
О.
T. C.
work in college. This means that in
his second and third year in college, he
will draw $150 a year in cash, or a
total of $300, besides the use of uni¬
form for three years. This combina¬
tion should be a great help to a stu¬
dent who is working his way through
college. Sophomores and Juniors,
don’t overlook this subject. In this
matter Col. Barlow is thinking not so
much of recruiting for the R.
О.
T. C.,
as of helping students who expect to
work their way through college.
W. A. NEWLIN WANTS
TOPICS FOR ADVISORY
PERIOD DISCUSSION
Committee Thinks it Will Benefit
Students and Make Dis¬
cussions Easier
Suggestions are now in order for
subjects to discuss during advisory
period, says W. A. Newlin, chairman
of the advisory committee.
Although there are always plenty of
topics to consider, the committee
wants to know the things that stu¬
dents are, really interested in. Tne ad¬
visory groups are well organized now,
and hold live discussions of the ques¬
tions presented to them, but the dis¬
cussion would be even livelier if the
groups had chosen the subjects them¬
selves. Mr. Newlin asks that any
groups which has an idea write
it on the slips which have been sent
around, and then place it on the clip.
If the ideas seem to make a universal
appeal they will be put on the advisory
schedule. Perhaps in this way some
I long - advocated reforms may be
achieved.
BOYS’ LEAGUE OFFICERS ARE1

IN ADVISORY
Russell Hardman, Kenneth Gra¬
ham, and Tom Mulvin Exec¬
utives for Next Semester
Officers for the Boys’ League were

visory periods.

man , vice-president; Kenneth Graham,

Arthur Syvertson, commissioner of
Boys’ League, is ex-officio president
of the league. He is looking forward
to a very successful and interesting
year for the boys.
Bank Growing Steadily
“I am confident that at the end of
the year a large portion of the stu¬
dents will have accounts in the school
bank,” is the statement made by J. A.
Anderson, head of the Commercial de¬
partment. He also added that the
bank was improving steadily, new ac¬
counts being added daily.
. A REINRART
SPEAKS TO POPIES
The students attending the assembly
yesterday had the privilege of hearing
a noted educator of the United States,
namely Dr. Aurelia Henry Reinhart,
president of the Mills College for
Girls, the only woman’s rollege on the
Pacific coast .
Dr. Reinhart told of the necessity of
having higher education to be able to
get along in the world as men and
women of the year 1926. She told
how the countries of Europe were far¬
ing because of . the fact that higher
education was impossible for the peo¬
ple of the working class because the
price of attending even a high school
could not be paid by the common man.
She said that good scholarship is
very necessary, because “it is going to
be harder to earn a living in the year
1926 than it has ever been before”.
Honor Society Pins were presented
by John Franklin West, Superintend¬
ent of the Pasadena City Schools, to
44 of the members of the Freshman
and Sophomore classes. Of this num¬
ber there were 18 boys and 26 girls.
GIRLS’ GYM SCHEDULE OUT
SPECIAL CORRECTIVE
CLASS FORMED
The girls’ gymnasium schedule has
been made out. As there are only
three classes each period and there
are four Physical Education teachers,
some alternating will take place.
All the gym classes will not have
the same work on the same day ex¬
cept on Wednesdays and Fridays when
classes turn out for swimming and
athletics. Folk dancing, Swedish ex¬
ercises, and athletics is the work for
the year. This year particular in¬
struction will be given in athletics.
While the season lasts everyone will
be taught how to play hockey.
Miss Heffelfinger has announced
that the same plan will be followed as
last year. No. 1 will be given to a
student unless she goes out to the pool
where instructions will be given.
Miss Hendrichs will teach handball
and tennis.
A special corrective class has been
formed, each teacher instructing it
once a day. The work in these classes
will be pushed so that the girls may
join the regular Physical Education
classes in two or three months.

-SE
P. H. S. COMMISSIONERS AND
CLASS OFFICERS ATTEND
PERFORMANCE
Gilmor Brown, Director of the
Theatre, Hopes to Obtain
Material from School
Starting with a get- acquainted game
the Freshman-Senior Girls’ League
party was ushered into a lively pro¬
gram Thursday afternoon in the hoys’
new gymnasium.
The entertainment committee under
the direction of Virginia Munson, pre-
| sented an amusing and attractive pro-
j gram commencing with a new version
; of “Two Deep,” a game worked out by
i Miss Nellie Greene Clarke, Girls’
League adviser, and directed by Mar¬
garet Cary.
A stunt in charge of Beatrice Ben-
; nett, entitled, “What Every Senior
Knows,” showed the advantage of
uniforms through the pantomines pre¬
sented by Senior girls.
Helen Spaulding and Beth Thomas
gave a selection of humorous readings.
Refreshments were then announced
and the girls left the new gymnasium
for the cafeteria. Punch and cookies
were served by Helen Rearick and her
committee while Alice and Ruth Ry-
den played a duet.
Allene Strubel, vice-president of the
league and in charge of the gathering,
when asked for a comment remarked,
“Say that the co-operation of the girls
has been wonderful. They certainly
deserve the success of the Freshman-
Senior party.”
ie new Senior High plan carried
by 200 votes.
Emerson, district No. 2, is the
only precinct that voted against
the plan to have a Junior High
system. Longfellow, district No.
6, cast the largest number of
votes, having a total of 298. This
precinct supported all measures
except the plan to enlarge the
present High School. This was
true in all other precincts with
the exception of Emerson.
BOARD OF EDUCATION OF¬
FICE, 7:20 P. M. — John Franklin
West, Superintendent of Pasadena
City Schools, estimated that the peo¬
ple would favor the continuation of
John Muir, as a Junior High, by a 5
to 1 vote.
Rufus Mead, Principal of John
Muir, was very well pleased when he
heard the results of the voting in the
Emerson and McKinley districts. Mr.
Mead said, “We feared the Emerson
and McKinley districts more than any
other ones. They are supposed to be
strongly against John Muir, but the
results of the balloting show that
many people in those precincts are for
us, and it is very gratifying. I am
well pleased.”
MASK AND MIRROR PLAY TO
GIVE NEW MEMBERS
REAL EXPERIENCE
The Mask and Mirror Dramatic
Club of P. H. S. will hold a tryout in
the Music Hall, Monday, October 9th,
at 3:30 P. M. under the supervision of
Miss E. E. Keppie, of the Dramatic
committee.
All those who are dramatically in¬
clined and wish to get into the M. and
M. are invited to come out. A special
invitation is extended to the boys.
The big play of the year has been
chosen and the date is set for Novem¬
ber 17. Work is soon to start.
The student whom everybody likes
usually likes everybody.
As guests of Gilmor Brown, the
commissioners of Pasadana High
School and last year’s class officers,
attended the opening production of the
season at the Community Playhouse
last Monday evening. The play,
which is entitled “Poly With a Past,”
deals with the love-sick young man
whose chums plan a trick to make his
love fall for him. However the
scheme goes wrong and the youth
falls in love with a pretty girl who is
hired to play the part of a wicked
French actress.
The play proved to be very humor¬
ous and kept the students in continual
laughter.
After the program Mr. Brown was
introduced to all by Oliver Prickett.
The Nasty Thing
This is a dirty trick said the frog,
as he turned a flip in the mud.
