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.”

the 1939-40 student body budget:

Dr. Buss next

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. After
five years in the Orient as a Chinese
language officer in the foreign service
of the United States at the American
embassy in Pieping and Nanking, he
resigned to observe political and eco-

Dr. Buss devoted the entire summer
gathering the latest and most authen¬

fairs from reliable sources in China,
Japan, Siberia and Russia.
He has already appeared on three

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.

Post election

dent of the junior class last Monday

Snyder was elected sophomore secre¬
tary, with Jim Eley as treasurer and

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

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

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.

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.”
