Dutch Ask
Flood Aid
Death and destruction were
swept into the tiny lowland coun¬
try of Holland last week when
a rampaging North Sea tide tore
through the protecting dikes and
flooded much of the nation’s ag¬
ricultural land.
Although the Dutch are waging
a valiant battle against the dis-
asterous sea, the fight is too
great for them to handle alone.
The students of PCC have been
asked to donate much needed
woolen clothing, blankets and
household linen to the cause.
Bring your contributions to room
213C or the main hall today or
early tomorrow as a plane is leav¬
ing for Holland on Friday. Do¬
nations will be picked up at your
home tonight if your name and
address is submitted to the Social
Science Council in room 213C.

stowal of membership on Sunday,

the Sigma Delta chapter of Del¬
ta Psi Omega, the national dra¬

Day School Enrollment
Totals Four Thousand
According to Roland W. Grinstead, PCC’s registrar,
4316 persons have registered in the college’s day school for
the second semester. The system of registration by means of
the short form greatly aided in the elimination of confusion
from this semi-annual chore, as
did the spreading out of regis¬
tration over a four-day period.
On January 27, 1316 students en¬
rolled; 1028 made their ways to
the registration clerks on Janu¬
ary 28. The twenty-ninth saw
only 912 students in Harbeson
Hall and the west wing of the
Library, and registration figures
dwindled to 566 on January 30.
The first day of registration last
February found 3478 students in
the long lines of enrollees.
Final registration at the close
of the enrollment period in Feb¬
ruary, 1952, was 4125.

Shurtleff.
In addition to his achievements
in the sports world, the brilliant
and witty entertainer has taught
high school English for 20 years
in eastern states. He is inter¬
nationally known for his literary
works. Author of dog stories
such as “Awol K9 Commando,”
“Short Leash,” “Two Against the

professional football in the Na¬
tional League with -the New York

students in the crowd, or allow
them to apply to him, the most
brutal of the holds, explaining
which are truly dangerous and

Work Plan
Study Made
Milton Mohs, head of the PCC
Placement Bureau, announced
that a group of experts visited
PCC last Friday to study the pro¬
cesses and effects of the local
work experience program as it
now operates.
The group is studying on a
grant of money from the Santa
Barbara school system which is
set up for the investigation of the
type of service systems like the
Placement Bureau gives to stu¬
dents. PCC has probably the
largest work program in the
state, according to Mr. Mohs.
Consequently, the group headed
by Dr. Neil Daniels, coordinator
of secondary education in the
Santa Barbara school system, and
Dr. Myron S. Olson, professor of
education at USC, plan to in¬
clude it in their study.
The men conducting the sur¬
vey intend to make an extensive
five-year study of the results of
the work-experience program on
the grades of students while in
school, and how they progress
after they graduate and take up
jobs in their chosen fields. The
committee is studying several
districts in California, as well as
PCC. They seemed favorably im¬
pressed with PCC’s advanced and
modern methods.
Sweethearts will shuffle to the smooth tempo of Don
Ricardo and his orchestra from 9 to 12 tonight during the
all-school dance at the Pasadena Athletic Club. The event
has been planned as a backwards dance, with members of the
fairer sex acting as official es¬
corts for male students. Coeds
will present their dates with cor¬
sages, most of which originated
in a vegetable garden rather
than a green house. These floral
accessories will be judged some¬
time during the evening, with a
prize going to the lass devising
the most original creation.
Sponsors for the “Sweetheart
Shuffle,” as the dance has been
billed, are the Associated Men
Students and the Associated Wo¬
men Students.
Dress for the affair is to be
sport, with the male dancers
garbed in slacks and jackets, and
their escorts wearing cottons or
skirts and sweaters. Joan Jahnke,
AWS president; Anne Lindsay,
social affairs commissioner; and
Tom Smith, AMS president; has
planned the dance around a Val¬
entine theme, and appropriate
decorations have been arranged.
Tickets are now on sale at the
Student Bank for $1.50 per
couple.
