as finalists after six to seven min¬

The Davis-Hall contest, one of
PCC’s oldest traditions, was in¬
augurated in 1907 by M. W. Davis,
then member of the Pasadena
School Board, and J. Herbert Hall,
a prominent jeweler in Pasadena
for years. The men hoped to in¬
crease student interest in good
speaking and civic problems.
Since Davis’ death in 1932, his
widow, Mrs. Fannie Davis, and
his daughter, Mary E. Davis, a
retired language teacher, have
continued to sponsor the contest
with Walter Hall, brother of the
late Herbert Hall.
Some of the subjects for the
extemporaneous speeches are hu¬
man rights, municipal problems
(smog, schools, traffic), college
and university morale, and musi-
ness and school ethics.

Student Body members will exer¬
cise their right to vote to elect
officers for the spring semester.
