Vote Today Vol. 31 Pasadena junior college, October 13, 1939 Vote Today No. 5 AS В board sets budget for 1939-40 ASB budget allotments, totaling $40,330, were approved by the Board of Representatives last Tuesday morning. Peter Paulson, secretary of finance, has spent the last five weeks paring down requests for $47,000. With frequent discussions in board meetings, accounts were cut so that it is believed none of them will be more disappointed than the others. Total income for the student body will be approximately $42,000 — $8000 from football and basketball gate and $34,000 from student body fees. ’38-’39 FIGURES Last year’s original allotments to¬ taled $36,000; the income was about $47,000 — $13,700 from gate and $33,500 from student fees. Of that amount, $7000 went into the fund for a new student union building, the remainder being spent for student activities. “We have gone to a great deal of trouble preparing these allotments,” Paiulson said. “We realize that our cutting may have ruined many fond hopes for increased activity, but we had to keep inside our estimated in¬ come. We hope that students will realize these facts and not let their accounts run into the red.” Following is an itemized account of the 1939-40 student body budget: Associated Students general fund . $ 3,000.00 Activities . 360.00 Athletic transportation.... 850.00 Baseball . 1,000.00 Basketball . 1,050.00 Bulldog band . 2,000.00 Campus . 8,000.00 Campus artist series . 90.00 Chronicle . 2,550.00 Debate . 450.00 Drama . 275.00 Drama (west campus).... 125.00 Delta Psi Omega . 150.00 Fencing . 100.00 Football . 5,500.00 Football banquet . 275.00 Football lunches . 350.00 Football publicity . 2,000.00 Christmas production . 725.00 Golf . 150.00 Gymnastics . 100.00 Injured athletes . 500.00 Intramural . 225.00 Alleluia . 630.00 Oratory . 400.00 Pep commission . 180.00 Piano and voice . 50.00 Vocal organization . 450.00 Lancers . 175.00 Continued on page two Mock wedding planned for fashion show assembly Herb McDonald and Jean Lindsay will be featured in a mock wedding at a fashion show to be held at next Fri¬ day’s assembly.

Buss, associate pro¬ fessor of international relations at USC, will speak next Tuesday at the second of this year’s forum series on “Japan vs. China,” in Sexson auditor¬ ium at 8 pm. Dr. Buss has spent a great deal of time in Europe and the Orient.

Dr. Buss devoted the entire summer gathering the latest and most authen¬ tic information concerning world af¬ fairs from reliable sources in China, Japan, Siberia and Russia. He has already appeared on three forums and returns again on public demand. DR. JONAS TALKS ON PROPAGANDA Dr. Frank Jonas, professor in politi¬ cal science at USC, defined propaganda as “the manipulation of attitudes, prejudices and emotions to attain some end, whether that end be positive or negative, in an address on “Propa¬ ganda Techniques in International Re¬ lations,” at the forum lecture Tuesday night. The inevitable result of propaganda, Dr. Jonas pointed out, is the ultimate dividing of a nation into two and only two factions. America’s greatest dan¬ ger lies in the uniting of all the forces in America to fight fascism, which will bring under one tent all the genative forces as well as the positive. He illus¬ trated this with the nation-wide uni¬ fication of all Germans, regardless of the political or religious creed, in the common fight of eliminating the Jew. “The League of Nations failed,” he Post election Thuel Schuhart was elected presi¬ dent of the junior class last Monday when some 1750 jaysee voters cast their ballots at the primary elections. Bill Humphrey nosed out Jean Miller and William Webb to take the chair of the soph vice-presidency. Margaret Snyder was elected sophomore secre¬ tary, with Jim Eley as treasurer and Camille Minton and Dixie Strohmeyer as AWS representatives. Juniors also elected Harry Hitch¬ cock, vice-president; Caroline Bugg, secretary; with Mabel Murfee, treas¬ urer, and Joyce Bennett and Jean Ry- pinsky AWS representatives. Seniors elected Wendell Thompson to take over the secretarial duties for their class. Freshmen chose Dale Hiestand and Katherine Hubbard to vie for the president’s chair in the finals, Betty Devine and Annette Kelsey for vice- president, Lucille Nutt and Susanne Sanders for secretary, and Alice Chis¬ holm and Bob Eastman for frosh treasurer. Jean Colton, Virginia Rooke and Gene Wilfong were elected to race in the finals for AWS repre¬ sentatives. On the west campus, juniors elected Thuel Schuhart to be their president. Dorothy Hogeboom and Janet Liddell also ran unopposed for junior AWS representatives. Seniors Clair Elmer and Barbara Goddard were elected AWS represent¬ atives from the west campus upper class. Women students coffee hours given on both campuses All women students of PJC are in¬ vited to attend the coffee hours, under the direction and guidance of east and west campus AWS presidents. The next coffee hour will be November 16, west campus. The meeting of September 25 inau¬ gurated the series of coffee hours for this semester, one of which will be held each month on either of the cam¬ puses. The affairs will be held in the social halls. Principals council to discuss class excursions Wednesday Class excursions will be discussed by the Principal’s council, chief policy¬ making body of the school, at its next meeting, Wednesday, at 11 o’clock. “In order to do good school work, students must attend classes,” Princi¬ pal John W. Harbeson said, “but this does not mean that the number of ex¬ cursions will be reduced.” By having the excursions on Satur¬ days, checking on students’ programs, and in other ways, they hope to help class attendance and maintain or in¬ crease the present number of excur¬ sions. The Principal’s council is composed of departmental heads and the admin¬ istrative staff. THUEL SCHUHART Doorstep players will give one act play at west campus The Doorstep players of west cam¬ pus will present their first program this year in the west campus auditor¬ ium Thursday, October 19, at 3 o’clock.

La Valse Ravel Club of the Week Schneefliegers When the warmth of the bright, un¬ usual California sun begins to fade and the cool October days predict nearing winter and when search for heavy sweaters brings skiing and skating costumes to light, too; when those for¬ tunate enough to have open fireplaces find cheery fires crackling in them and a replenishing trip to the wood shed produces the discovery of long-racked skiis and of long-unused sled — then the spirits of numerous PJC colleg¬ ians begin to rise. For they are the hearties who thrive on snow and cold — the members of PJC’s winter sports club, the “Schneefliegers.” FAST GROWTH Comparatively new in the college club roster, Schneeflegers have, never¬ theless, seen their original membership expand so rapidly that it has been lim¬ ited to about one hundred members. Their red-shield-on-crossed-pole insig¬ nia appears on almost every part of the campus. General wonderment has been aroused by the name “Schnee¬ fliegers,” a word of German origin meaning snow flyers. Mountain trips and skating parties have been some of the most exciting features of their pro¬ grams. This semester able and ardent Donna Morrow begins her second term as club president. Assisting her are vice- president, Bob Beebe; publicity man¬ ager, Wayne Mills; west campus rep¬ resentative, Ralph Harlow, and spon¬ sors Robert Ball and John McMorris. Faculty advisers are Allan Cameron and Coach Ken Smith. Pre election PJC will go to the polls today in the finals of the primary elections held last Monday. The freshmen will make their final choice of class officers and the senior women will elect their AWS representatives. The sophomores and juniors will not vote as these offices were filled in the primaries. Today’s ballot will list Dale Hiestand and Katherine Hubbard, candidates for freshman class presidency, Betty De- vine and Annette Kelsey running for frosh vice-president, Lucille Nutt and Susanne Sanders for secretary, Alice Chisholm and Bob Eastman for fresh¬ man treasurer, Jean Colton, Virginia Rooke and Gene Wilfong for AWS rep¬ resentative from the freshman class. Senior women will choose between Dorothy Riggs, Ann Sanborn and Mari¬ anne Starbuek for senior AWS repre¬ sentatives. Only freshmen will vote on the west campus today, choosing only the freshman president. Katherine Hub¬ bard and Albert Page are candidates in finals for that office. PJC club meets this morning Club meetings, both restrictive and open, will be held today during the assembly period on both campuses. For students who do not attend meet¬ ings, a variety show will be given in the east campus auditorium. There will be no west campus assembly. Dick Kendall, secretary of organiza¬ tions and acting master of ceremonies at the varsity show, will introduce the several acts featuring Jaysee talent. Acts will include Bob Fisher, student Club day bulletin issued A special Club Day bulletin has been issued this morning to aid stu¬ dents in finding the club they are in¬ terested in and the location of the vari¬ ous organizations meetings to be held during assembly periods today. This bulletin will list types of clubs and their programs. Organizations holding closed meetings will also be given. magician; the Armulite male quartet; Mary Jane Covell, Spanish dancer; the Melody Maids, string instrumentalists; a jam session with hep-cats from the Amphion club and members of Ken Baker’s orchestra, and musical selec¬ tions from Margaret Ellner, student pianist. Five editorships in five years is Jack Griffin's record Five editorships in as many years is the record made by Jack Griffin, pres¬ ent art editor of Vo-Mag, semi-annual art publication. Besides having been art editor and art adviser of Campus, PJC yearbook; art editor of Tab and associate art editor of Vo-Mag, Jack is a past prsident of Zeta Tau Sigma, honorary art club. Purpose of this club is the promo¬ tion of skill in winter sports and good fellowship among PJC’s winter sports men and women. Membership appli¬ cations will be available in Miss Cath¬ erine J. Robbins’ or Mr. J. P. O’Mara’s offices and must be turned in at one of the meetings. All members serve an initial probationary period. The Schneefliegers have hopes that Pasa¬ dena junior college’s winter sports club will play host to surrounding schools in a great skii rally. Club of the Week salutes the Schneefliegers, a really progressive club! “Club days are held for the student body members,” Kendall said, “and to acquaint them with the extra-curricu¬ lar activities offered by the organiza¬ tions. Today’s program will give stu¬ dents an opportunity to discover the club which offers activities which are most interesting to the individual stu¬ dent.” R. K.
