Permission Granted To
Board For Demolition
Of Addams And Agassiz
Change In Orders Necessitates Alteration Of The
Architectural Plans For Buildings; Whittaker
And Snook Still Holders Of Contract
That permission for the final frame demolition and rehabilitation
of the former Jane Addams and Louis Agassiz buildings had been
aiven bv all authorities concerned, was revealed by the Board of lines for Bulletin notices. Notices
y ; y for the Monday issue of the Chron-
Education recently.
Officials feel that if work is completed at a fast rate, the two
structures should be ready for-*
occupation at an early date. Plans
have not yet been completed for
the rebuilding of the former Hor¬
ace Mann building.
The recent change in orders has
necessitated new architectural
designs, but Cyril Bennett, chief
architect, believes that the new
plans will be ready at the same
time that the frame demolition is
finished and authorities are pre¬
pared to start the rebuilding part
of the program.
Rehabilitation plans for the jun¬
ior college buildings have met
several checks since they were first
formulated nearly three years ago
following the condemning of, the
structures by state authorities. A
ruinous earthquake centering in
Long Beach preceded and focused
attention on the unsafe Pasadena
junior college buildings.
Tents were constructed on what
was formerly the Lancer-policed
parking lot of the college and
classes were quickly transformed
thither. Then, after speeches and
pre-election rallies in which J. C.
students took a prominent part
a stirring bond election was held
which roused all Pasadena and its
environs.
Following the bond election,
FERA forces were employed to
demolish the buildings, thus sav¬
ing this district some thousands ot
dollars. A Santa Barbara firm of
general contractors, Whittaker &
Snook, later won the job of re¬
habilitating the two structures.
The work was taken over by the
national government as a PWA
project, Federal authorities took
supreme charge and the Federal
government assumed 30 per cent
of the cost.
Additional reinforcement was
demanded by state authorities fol¬
lowing discovery of the poor quali¬
ties of workmanship and materials
in the original buildings. National
officials ordered the work stopped.
New plans, including the added re¬
inforcement required, were pre¬
pared by Mr. Bennett, and then

“Scholarship requirements for
membership in the C. S. F., lower
division scholarship society, are
too high, and will probably face
a downward revision,” remarked
Miss Mildred Wellborn, “as only
32 students have applied this se¬
mester.”
Culbertson Hall at Caltech will
be the meeting place of the com¬
bined groups of C. S. F. and Alpha
Gamma Sigma, upper division
scholarship group, at which a Cal¬
tech professor will be the speaker
of the evening, on October 8. Pins
will be presented to the 32 appli¬
cants.
C. S. F. is a state scholarship
organization which has 275 chap¬
ters. Each chapter may submit
one applicant for each scholarship
presented by each tuitive univer¬
sity in the state.
All 11-1 students who are
scholarship members from their
junior high schools, and all 11-1’s
interested in scholarship are urged
to attend an afternoon meeting of
C. S. F.
Other applicants for C. S.
are urged to register at once.

■ШШШ
Tomorrow night at the Rose ' |
Bowl will be one of the most inter- |
esting events ever to enter the an- ; I
nals of Pasadena junior college : |
history. At that time the Bulldog : 1
varsity football team oposes the ' 1
Fullerton junior college Hornets in ' 1
the initial game for Pasadena un- . |
der the arcs.
One of the outstanding features 1 1
of the encounter will be the pres- |
ence of the famous Bulldog band, 1 1
150 strong, who are to be featured |
in a spectacular program of mu- 1 1
sic, tricks and novelties. This will
be the initial appearance before
the citizens of Pasadena for the
school year. Another feature will
be the presence of the newly-cho¬
sen pep leaders.
Following tryouts held Tuesday
afternoon five students were chosen
to lead the student body in yells
and song's. The three men picked
to lead yells are Kenneth Ledger-
wood, Morgan West and Vernon
Leif. Ledgerwood is a newcomer
from South Pasadena while the
other two were last year’s leaders.
Kay West, Sadie Sellars, Ber-
tille Glanville and Frances Shep¬
ard were selected to lead the song¬
birds of jaysee in school anthems
this semester. The contests were
held under the joint-chairmanship
of Pep Commissioner Lee Loop and
Dick Lusk, secretary of athletics.
The judges for the two contests
were Palmer Anderson, secretary
of finance; Glennard Burris, Bob
Chambers, Phil Monroe, Billie
Crain and Robert P. Hays, of the
biological science department.
To aid the band and the pep
leaders, a new rooting section com¬
posed of . students will conduct a
chorus of organized cheering.
Plans for the section have been
under way all week and by tomor¬
row night a new idea for cheering
may be instituted at jaysee.
Names of the successful candi¬
dates for Players’ Guild will not
be announced until Monday, pend¬
ing approval of the members of
the organization. Twenty contest¬
ants tried out yesterday afternoon
at 2 and 3 o’clock.
For the purpose of voting on the
winners, a meeting will be held
tomorrow afternoon at 3 ’clock.
“We were very much pleased with
the tryouts,” said Miss Elizabeth
E. Keppie, adviser of the club.
“On the whole it was very good.”
A selection of 30 lines with two
or more characters was necessary
for the tryout. These were given
before members of the club and
were judged by the executive com¬
mittee.
The officers include Bill Mc¬
Gowan as president; Andrew Car¬
nahan, vice-president; Severine
Callahan, secretary; and Jerry Ste¬
vens, treasurer.
Clubs Discuss
Better Life In
Half Of Meet
Restrictive clubs will devote ap¬
proximately half an hour of each
meeting to discussing how to lead
better lives declared Dr. John W.
Harbeson, principal, in speaking at
the A. M. S. meeting Monday
morning.
Although the school turnout and
the team’s performance was good
at the Santa Ana game last week,
Coach W. K. Dunn, physical edu¬
cation department head, stressed
his desire for more pep in the stu¬
dent body. J. P. O’Mara, dean of
men, spoke in a similar channel of
thought, further explaining the
tradtiions of this institution. A.
M. S. president Sam Schwartz,
i presided over this meeting.

Any student who is eligible for a
cabinet assistant may apply for an
approval card for student activity
at the student office in the stu¬
dent union building.
Departments accepting volun¬
teers are: public relations, under
Bob Hurt, which is in charge of all
campus and radio publicity ; the
publicity department, under Jim
Mathews which takes applications,
circulates publicity, takes charge
of the public address system and
approves all publicity. John Ben
ton, secretary of records, who lists
service points, . makes out grade
point ratios, and similar tasks; and
students interested in assisting
with social affairs and attending to
bids, decorations for school dances,
may see Anna Katherine Jones, so¬
cial affairs commissioner.
Don Mansfield, president of the
student body, urged every student
to apply. “Since we want a true
representation of our student body
in our government,” he stated,
“The board urges all those inter¬
ested in school/ affairs to apply for
these offices.”
Added Week Of Practice
Whips Bulldogs Into
Proper Shape
Out for blood after being nosed
out in their initial grid tilt, the
varsity football team will play
host to the Fullerton Hornets Fri¬
day evening in the Rose Bowl, in
what promises to be one of the
hardest battles ever fought in the
famous stadium.
The fact that the Pasadenans
lost, the first game of the season
is no indication of their real
strength, inasmuch as the Santa
Ana eleven was composed almost
wholly of lettermen, and the fact
that the Bulldog team had never
played together before.
Another week of practice has
made a great deal of difference in
the team play of the entire Crown
city outfit and when they take the
field tomorrow night against the
Hornets, they will be a vastly im¬
proved football team.
The game will be the first regu¬
larly scheduled one for the Yellow-
jackets, and for this reason little
is known about their comparative
strength. It may be depended up¬
on, however, that they will be by
no means weak. The squad is led
by no less than twelve (count
‘em) lettermen, and for this rea¬
son alone should place high in final
standings.
Arrambide New Coach
Also the Fullerton jaysee facul¬
ty has recently acquired another
member in the person of Johnny
Arrambide, who will coach football,
basketball, baseball and track. Ar¬
rambide was probably the greatest
all-around athlete ever to attend
Whittier college and last year was
placed on the ‘Little All-American’
team which is chosen by a national
poll. This is as great an honor for
players on smaller school teams as
the “official” All-American is for
players on the large university
(Continued on Page Four)
Finish Work
On Reflector
Under the sponsorship of the
campus Y. W. C. A., Mrs. James
Wallace, noted authority on adoles¬
cent problems, will begin a series
of talks on boy and girl relations
in assembly October 4.
The three following talks, which
will be given by Mrs. Wallace, are
to be held in the technology build¬
ing. Open forums will follow her
lectures in which students are
asked to discuss their problems
freely.
It is hoped that a good turnout
will attend the forums, as a por¬
tion of the student body fund was
voted for this purpose last spring,
according to Miss Mary Smyer,
“Y” adviser. Mrs. Wallace gave a
series of afternoon lectures at Mc¬
Kinley for the P. T. A., which were
well attended.
ATTEND LECTURES
“The Philosophy of Prevailing
Ideas,” is the subject of .a series
of lectures to be given every Tues¬
day afternoon at 4:15 on the S. C.
campus. Students will be admitted
without charge, according to Linn
W. Hattersley, philosophy instruc¬
tor, who, with Dr. Hardin Hughes
is attending the series of lectures.

Enrollment Less
Than Last Year
(Continued on Page 3)
According to Mr. Anderson, dean
of records, the latest total of en¬
rolled students is 3808. With four
more days to register in the upper
division, it is expected that the
registration will probably equal
last year’s registration.
“Pick up in late registration has
been more marked this year than
last, though there were 49 fewer
students registering opening day,
than last year. The late registra¬
tion has overcome the shortage,”
said Dean of Records Anderson.
However, over 300 classes have
been closed because of the large
number of students already in
them. The majority of these
classes were in history and Eng¬
lish department, with math and
art almost as well attended.
Students Need
Transportation
According to James P. O’Mara,
dean of men, there are many Pas¬
adena junior college students liv¬
ing in South Pasadena, Alham¬
bra, El Monte, Montebello and
other surrounding towns who have
no means of transportation to and
from the school. Mr. O’Mara and
Miss Catherine Robbins, dean of
women, ask all students who live
in these vicinities, and who can
drive any passengers from those
towns, to leave their names in
either dean’s office.
The junior college observatory’s
20-inch reflecting telescope has
been completed and the instrument
is ready for usage by astronomy
students of the school, according
to Peter Stoner, head of the math¬
ematics department. The telescope
was built a few years ago and was
never completed, but work was re¬
sumed on it this summer and the
reflector is now ready for use.
The telescope was tested by Dr.
Pease of the Mt. Wilson observa¬
tory, designer of the 100-inch re¬
flecting telescope which is located
at Mt. Wilson, and co-designer of
the 200-inch reflector which will be
located on Palomar mountain, San
Diego county. The quality of the
work done by the school’s instru¬
ment is excellent and is the equal
of any other telescope of its type,
according to Mr. Stoner. Plans
have been made for the photog¬
raphy of the moon, sun and sev¬
eral of the star groups of major
importance.
The astronomy students use the
telescope four nights in every
week, but one night, date not yet
determined, is to be set aside as
an “open house” when any student
who . is interested in astronomy is
cordially invited to visit the obser¬
vatory located on the west side of
the campus and to do a little star
gazing.
Election To Fill
Board Vacancy
For 13th Group
With the vacancy in the board
created by the absence of Bob Ma-
soner, voted junior president last
June, both president as well as
minor officers of the junior class
will be elected in the general class
elections to be held Friday, Octo¬
ber 4, according to Carl Deisen-
roth, chief justice.
With freshman chief to be
chosen as well, all minor class of¬
ficers will be elected at that time,
including A. W. S. representatives
of the lower class.
Activity cards, which may be
obtained at the student body of¬
fice, must be in Monday, according
to Deisenroth, and need only name
of the candidate and office sought.
Grades are not necessary. Filled
cards may be turned in to the stu¬
dent body office before 4 Monday.
