Night Game
In Rose Bowl
Friday
Band Will Make Debut at
Opening Grid Combat
With displays planned to rival
that of any large college institu¬
tion, the Pasadena junior college
Bulldogs make their initial home
game debut in regular collegiate
style, when this Friday night they
entertain the Fullerton squad "at
the famed Rose Bowl for the first
night game of the 1935 grid cam¬
paign.
The game is the first evening
game that has been played by the
locals in several years and, if it
proves to be a successful and popu¬
lar undertaking, the arc light
policy will likely continue as a
definite setup for the future.
Band To Play
On hand to make the whole af¬
fair an envious night in jaysee an¬
nals will be the renowned Pasade¬
na Bulldog band under the direc¬
tion of Audrey Stong. The band
will be composed of 150 players.
It will be their first major stunt
program of the new semester.
The week is being spent in or¬
ganizing yells and soliciting lead¬
ers to guide the massive rooting
section that is being sought. The
call is still open to any student de¬
siring to participate in the support
of the teams by giving the custo¬
mary cheers.
Between halves the spectators
will be amused by numerous tricks
and comic antics of the band and
rooting section. So instilled is the
spirit that a special feature is be¬
ing considered that will be un¬
precedented at the Rose Bowl.
Pirate Tale

“ — Harbeson’s the studiest,
O’Mara is the dutiest,
Robbins is the beautiest—
At P. J. C.— ”
And in such strain, a male-'trio
of the Bulldog band paid tribute
to the administration at the Fri¬
day morning assembly. Five of the
eight elected officers were installed
by Dr. John W. Harbeson, princi¬
pal, who afterwards assured the
student body that the junior col¬
lege plant would be ready for oc¬
cupancy by the next school year.
The name of this order of the
Mast and Dagger was conferred
as a result of the desire to name
it after the highest class of piracy,
according to the tale told by Kit
Cartwright, one of its members
and senior representative. Bud
Paulson told of coming dates, after
which Coach W. K. Dunn intro¬
duced Coaches Anderson and Bob
McNeish.
