Hassler Cathedral Eleven
To Play Lower Team
Next Friday
Dick Hassler, whose cleats once
pounded gridiron history into the
sod of Horrell field, will return
next Friday to the scene of his
old-time glory — not as a pilgrim
to a hallowed shrine, but as coach
of the Cathedral high school foot¬
ball team that will battle Coach
John Thurman’s lower division
varsity football eleven in the
seventh renewal of the annual
Field day.
This year marks the second in
which the Cathedral aggregation
has been invited to be a combat¬
ant in Field day activities, and the
third successive season that Ilass-
ler’s Purple Phantoms will be meet¬
ing a Pasadena team. Audre L.
Stong’s Bulldog band will make
its first local appearance for the
occasion.
“B” Championship
Preliminary to the varsity strug¬
gle but to partisans of both schools
equally as important, class
В
teams of Pasadena jaysee and Muir
tech high will clash in their an¬
nual ‘titanic” for city champion¬
ship. honors, captured last year by
the northside Terriers and retained
ni .a post-season encounter.
Cathedral will be fighting to
gain revenge for the 7-to-6 victory
scored, by the Bulldogs in last
year’s game, in which the Rockne
Notre Dame system employed by
the Phantoms found a stone-wall
in the strong defensive play of the
Bulldogs, using the Heisman style
learned by Coach John Thurman
when he was an all-American
tackle at University of Pennsyl¬
vania.
Long Run
After the Cathedral men had an
apparently-safe 6-to-0 Lead, Sam
Schwartz, Bulldog quarterback,
who is playing again this year,
broke through for a 54-yard dash
to a score which ultimately re¬
sulted in a Pasadena win.
Tickets for the event, priced, at
25 cents for adults and students
alike, can be secured at the college
bank. No passes have been issued,
inasmuch as total receipts exclu¬
sive of expenses go toward con¬
structing floats entered by the
city school system in the Tourna¬
ment of Roses parade.
Lancers To
Stage Rally
Under the chairmanship of the
Lancers and Art Ryon, pep com¬
missioner, the first pep rally of
the season will be staged October
6. An interesting program, con¬
sisting of band, numbers, rooting,
and an inspiring talk by some per¬
son of distinction, is now being
planned.
According to Jack Shepherd,
Lancer president, the Lancers are
not police, but are acting in cer¬
tain duties only in the capacity of
a service group. Students are re¬
quested to give utmost co-opera¬
tion because of the difficulties in¬
volved in the demolition of the
auditorium.
Campus Staff
Plans Theme
Several ideas were discussed
concerning the theme for this
year’s annual, at the “Campus”
staff meeting last Monday.
Between 30 and 40 students' have
attended the first two staff meet¬
ings, which are held every Mon¬
day. Final appointments to the
few staff positions still open will
probably be made at the next
meeting, according to Dick Dewey,
editor.
Last year’s experiment with col¬
ors proved so successful that they
are going to be used again this
year. Many interesting colors have
been suggested, but nothing is yet
definite.
Wegge Elected
Collecting 17 votes more than
his opponent, Bob Wegge won
the close chase against Wordan
Nollar, for vice-president of A.
M. S., at the elections last Fri¬
day. Secretary and treasurer
posts were filled by Elmer Mor¬
ton and Stan Riordan, respect¬
ively.
With his new force lined up,
Vincent Fite, A. M. S. proxy, an¬
nounced that plans for the next
meeting on October 22, will be
posted in a few weeks.

of both the new and old spaces
reserved for the faculty.
