Tells Faith in Today9 s Youth
Demonstration of the Pasa¬
dena fire department being post¬
poned, A. M. S. met in the Calvary
Baptist church with Gifford Gor¬
don as speaker last Wednesday.
After relating a few humorous
incidents in his life, Mr. Gordon,

the topic of his speech, “It’s Up
to You, Young America.”

wild and irresponsible, but that is
not so,” declared Mr. Gordon.

Group Picks Peggy Lou Neary
To Reign at Fall Flower Show
Upholding the tradition of former years, the Pasadena
Horticultural association has again selected the queen for
their fall flower show from the women students of the Pasa¬
dena junior college, Peggy Lou
Neary having been chosen to reign
at the civic auditorium on October
27, 28, and 29.
Personality Factor
Clyde C. Hurley, publicity mana¬
ger of the exposition, states that
the queen was elected .because of
her personality and far-reaching
reputation. Having danced in
school productions and motion pic¬
tures, Peggy Lou is well-known in
Pasadena and school circles.
Pauline Brenner, Wanda Shep-
ardson, and Esther Lambert, P. J.
C. students are to attend the queen
at the blossom event which the Pa¬
sadena Horticultural association
holds semi-annually.
Queen Photoed
Witnessed by representatives
from Pasadena and Los Angeles
newspapers, the queen and her at¬
tendants were photographed at the
Hotel Maryland Tuesday, when the
Chamber of Commerce presented a
huge crown of vari-colored chrysan¬
themums. Pictures of the queen
and floral diadem will be sent to
4,000 publications throughout the
United States.
Is my face red? Some little
mouse must have looked hurriedly
into a mirror as he scampered away
from the place which was littered
with the pieces of a “Dewar”
chemical flask. In an inadvert¬
ent step he had knocked the glass
container down with a bang, awak¬
ening an entire botany lab class.
Blue seems to be a prevail¬
ing color for P. J. C. service
men. Not only do R.
О.
T. C.
uniforms sport stripes and ties
of that hue, but also caretakers’
shirts have lately taken on the
clear-sky shade.
That “Margaret” is a name
which designates a clever and pop¬
ular girl, seems to be proved, by
the fact that five of the 28 re¬
elected Alpha Gamma Sigma mem¬
bers are “Margarets,” and three of
these have 'been chosen officers of
the group.
Sudden semi-earthquakes (di¬
rectly traced to vociferous
sneezes) and more or less musi¬
cal choruses of sniffles, snuffles
and snorts, herald a “cold” win¬
ter in local class-rooms.
Student Aid Column
To Be in Chronicle
To acquaint students with up-
to-date information pertaining to
education, a special column of
guidance problems will be started
in the Chronicle next Friday.

questions of educational interest
into a box that will be centrally
located in the counseling depart¬
ment. Answers to these queries
will appear in the Chronicle.

WOMAN S HAND
MAKESCHANGE
You’ll Find It’s True in Play,
‘Bachelor’s Quarters,’
On November 10
“In matters regarding the ‘softer
sex,’ a gentleman’s word is subject
to 75 per cent discount,” says one
of several members in the Bauble
and Bells comedy, “Bachelor’s’
Quarters,” scheduled for Novem¬
ber 10.
Feminine Touch
A statement not easily contra¬
dicted and done so only when Wil¬
loughby, another member of the
bachelorhood, remarks how differ¬
ent a room looks after it has been
touched by feminine hand.
This change in the appearance of
the room is created between scenes
by members of A. M. Wedemeyer’s
stagecraft class, which has charge
of dressing the set. The set, itself,
represents an English country
home.
Land Army
Feminine leads take the part of
girls of the “land army,” the or¬
ganization Which played such an
important part in England during
the World War. With Ruth Jones
as chairman, the costume commit¬
tee has done a great deal of re¬
search to find the correct type of
clothing worn by these “land
girls,” according to Miss Katherine
Kester, faculty director of the
drama.
Nicholas Same® has been chosen
to take the role of Daniel, a young
farmer.

tional matters,” Miss Ida E.
