URGE STUDENT BACKING IN FIRST BOWL GAME Friday Noon Pep Parade May Prove Most Unique Stunt in School History Long-time anticipation will be fulfilled at noon Friday when hundreds of PJC cars will stream into Colorado Street for the parade that may prove to be the most unique pep stunt in school history. Vol. 40 Pasadena Junior College, September 25, 194G No. 2 M uir Da nee PJC Students Invited To Civic Affair John Muir Junior College’s first school dance, the Varsity Stomp, is slated for Thursday, September 26, Don Stewart,' Muir student body president reports. All PJC students are invited. La Verne Boyer’s orchestra, in¬ cluding vocalists, will supply the musical impetus. Civic Auditor¬ ium doors open at 9 p. m. and close at midnight. The affair is sport and for couples only. Making their first dance an in¬ ter-school proposition will help foster a friendly relationship be¬ tween the two schools, Stewart believes. It is hoped that there will be a large attendance repre¬ senting both schools. Bids, cost¬ ing $1.00 per couple may be pur¬ chased at the box office. DEFENSE COUNSELS NEEDED FOR COURT Defense counsels for the PJC court system are urgently needed. Interested students should sign up in 29C, the Dean of Men’s office or the Student Union. To qualify for a Court posi¬ tion, the applicant must pass a bar examination concerning PJC law. Further information may be obtained in the stu¬ dent body office. Traffic Citations Issued 35 Cars Parked Near School Pasadena police issued traffic citations to more than 35 cars parked near “D” and “T” build¬ ings Monday. This information, which came from Dean Stong’s office, is sig¬ nificant of a city-wide police drive against illegal parking. Automo¬ biles parked too near school buildings are fire-hazards, the po¬ lice maintain, and students who park cars in time areas are urged to make use of the school park¬ ing lot or one of the nearby Colorado Street lots. УМСА in City-Wide Bid For New Memberships A city-wide campaign to increase membership has been announced for this week by the Pasadena YMCA. All men students of PJC are invited to investigate opportunities in organized athletics, social and educational programs. Many students would be much Crafty Hall Orisinal Scripts for Production Wanted Students will be briefed in - - - bly on parade arrangements and Language Council Elects Heads; Speakers Greeted Semester activities commenced Tuesday, September 17 for the two year old Language Council when the seventeen participating members elected Renee Hanson, 14-2 French major as their general chairman. Also chosen were committee heads ’Lena Levine, Spanish ; Peter Pauling, German ; Mary Hirsh, Latin ; and Marianne Otto, French. Jane Arthur, re-elected secretary-treasurer, presided at the gathering- which opened with a welcome from Kathleen Loly, general adviser, and a bid interested in the fine athletic training program that the Y has just recently set up. It now of¬ fers expert instruction and guid¬ ance in almost all physical skills, such as: volleyball, basketball, swimming, handball, badminton, and other sports. All servicemen who have been discharged less than six months ago are eligible to receive a mem¬ bership card free for a period of three months. The rate for all students above 17 years is 12 dollars annually; for boys be¬ tween 15 and 17, nine dollars; for boys 8 to 14 years the fee ’s six dollars.

Original ideas, suggestions and scripts for Crafty Hall, PJC’s largest production, should be sub¬ mitted not later than 12:00 Mon¬ day, October 7, Rowena Baker, chairman of the judging commit¬ tee has announced. The last show, written and dir¬ ected by Charlene Burner, turned out as a smash hit. It was cli¬ maxed by the crowning of the mardi-gras queen and kept in pace with the postwar world with television as its theme. All entries in the forthcoming musica-.l will be welcomed by the judges and should be given to Rowena Baker, Marion Moser, or left on the bulletin board in the OMD .office. for success from alumna Mar¬ jorie Maninger. The October 3 Spanish Tertul- ia, social program for all inter¬ ested students, received most at¬ tention during the business meet¬ ing. Speakers are to be Gladys Lee and Bessie Davis, faculty members, just returned after two months traveling in Mexico, who will highlight their many exper¬ iences in visiting with the Mexi¬ can citizens. Spanish music and refreshments will complete the program. What have arrived to be ac¬ cepted events on campus, the Ger¬ man Gesselschaft, French Soiree and Latin festival also came un¬ der consideration, and although it seemed almost ironic for a h ot summer’s eve, the Christ- imas Carnival plan too was pre- se nted. (.Chairman Renee Hanson is the first Council member to bring the true French flavor into the grouip, for she was born in France and speaks the language fluently as lier parents have continued its use in this country. Her hus¬ band, recently discharged from the Army Air Corps with the rank of lieutenant, practices sur¬ veying while his wife continues her studies for her future as a French teacher. Associate advisers for the Coun¬ cil this year are Elmer Sauer, Fannie Vigoureux, Engene Deuders and Arthur S. Wiley. the half-hour morning assem- will be worked into a preview peak of excitement by yell lead¬ ers and pom pom girls. Cooperation of the city police is due to Captain Walker who will provide a motorcycle escort for the noisy caravan. Student arrangements are rightly credit¬ ed to spirited commissioner Phil Miller. Led by three eye-riveting red cars, the parade contingent will line vehicles up during the morn¬ ing in the area extending past the Student Union through the parking lot. Individual genius will be responsible for car decora¬ tion, which should be red, white and lively. No 12:00 Friday classes will be held, in order to enable every¬ one to participate in the caval¬ cade which will leave promptly on the hour. Procession route will lead down Colorado to Mar¬ engo, where cars will park in front of the City Hall for the Bulldog Band playing of the al¬ ma mater and more cheer lead¬ er aroused spirit. Return route will be by Walnut Street, and 1:00 classes will resume on the usual schedule. Rooter Caps Important is the pep commis¬ sion notice that no one without a red and white pep hat will be admitted to the game rooting section. Arriving in lots of 350 every day, hats are now $1.00 for every student. The police de¬ partment has promised an order¬ ly cheering section, as fourteen force members will be on duty. In a plea for unanimous par¬ ticipation, commissioner Miller stated that with the full backing of the student body, PJC would rise from third place junior col¬ lege rating to the top notch be¬ cause of the impact of successful sports stunts. New Duds A preliminary step toward this aim has been the purchase of new and nattier attire for pep commission members, pem pom girls and yell leaders, who have been sporting red short-sleeved sweaters with the white pep em¬ blem emblazoned, and white slacks or skirts.
