ing in a garret during World
War II.
Also assigned a lead role is
Gordon Ballinger, drama major
from Arcadia, who plays the role
of Mr. Frank. As the father of
Anne, with whom he has great
rapport, Ballinger has poignant
scenes as he sees her mature un¬
der the most trying of circum¬
stances. Crowded at times with
the 10 characters, the attic set is
filled with the conflicts and pas¬
sions of humanity during war.
Warren Chadwick, theater arts
major from Monrovia, is stage
manager. He is a veteran of PCC
productions, having performed

Robbins West To Feature
Landscaped Mall, Freeway
By Tom Leonhardt
There really is a reason for the
fence now on campus. It is not
there to hide anything, nor was it
built as a billboard. The Pinner
Construction Company built it to
protect passers-by while it works
on Project Robbins West.
Robbins West is the new wing
to the Robbins Building now in
use. Like its sister wing, the new
part will contain two elevators
and a variety of classrooms.
Around the whole building, a
brick and concrete mall complete
with landscaping will be ready
when the building is, January 3,
1969.
The mall, with planting areas,
will extend from Robbins to the
Library, and from the Campus
Center to the Administra¬
tion Building. A miniature free¬
way in the form of a ramp will
connect the second floor of Rob¬
bins West with the Campus Book¬
store.
Frosh Flyer
Coming Soon
PCC’s Freshman Class Council
plans to give the Freshman Class
a greater voice in student govern¬
ment through a class newspaper,
“The Freshman Flyer.”
“The Flyer” will be distributed
twice monthly to all freshman
free of charge.
Manuscripts, essays, and poems
written by freshmen will be
appreciated.
All articles are subject to ed¬
iting.
Contributions must be submit¬
ted to the class president, Terry
Moore, or to the class council box
in the Campus Center no later
than April 21.
First edition is scheduled for
early May publication.
On the inside, there will be the
usual classrooms and a few ex¬
tras. There will be a multi-pur¬
pose room with an inclined floor
for use by the Art Department.
Also going to the Art Depart¬
ment will be a ceramics section
of rooms complete with kilns.
If you’re still around in 1969
you’ll be able to see all the new
items for yourself in the newest
part of PCC.

Visual Arts
Wins Honor
The old gal did it again! PCC
has scored a new honor and its
proud to announce her victory in
visual merchandising. In a con¬
test with 6518 entries submitted
by professionals from 17 coun¬
tries, PCC’s visual merchandising
class took honorable mention.
This was in the seventeenth an¬
nual International Display Con¬
test sponsored by Display World
Magazine.
Leonard Dionisio, teacher-coor¬
dinator of the marketing work-
study program, pointed out that
the visual merchandising students
had only nine practice displays
in the PCC laboratory before the
contest thus making them ama¬
teurs.
The class entered its project
under the category of men’s toilet-
tries. The extra spicy touch was
added to the display with the
theme, “Jade East Comes West.”
The award was honorable men¬
tion for outstanding display
achievement.
Photos of the display were tak¬
en by Russ Whitaker’s photog¬
raphy class. Judging was based
entirely on the photographs.
Following the general session,
delegates will select the section
meetings of their choices on 27
different subjects ranging from
accounting to the social sciences,
from 11:30 to 12:20.
DR. JOHN LOMBARDI
. . . keynoter
Most section meetings will pre¬
sent panels or speakers, with
members of the PCC faculty serv¬
ing as chairmen and hosts.
Dr. Lombardi served as presi¬
dent of Los Angeles City College
from 1955 to 1966. He had previ¬
ously taught history and political
science there, beginning in 1936,
served as counselor, head of the
evening division, and dean of in¬
struction.
He has held several high pro¬
fessional positions, including the
presidency of the Southern Cali¬
fornia Junior College Association
and the Los Angeles Junior Col¬
lege Administrators Association.

PCC’s Name To
Remain the Same
“The name ‘Pasadena City Col¬
lege’ will remain unchanged when
the new district becomes effective
July 1,” Dr. Armen Sarafian, pres¬
ident, said this week.
The name of the district will be
changed to “Pasadena Area Jun¬
ior College District,” and the
wording above the main entrance
to C Building will be revised ac¬
cordingly, he added.
Dr. Sarafian made the an¬
nouncement after a daily news¬
paper reporter erroneously report¬
ed that the college name would
change with the district name.
