Little Theatre at 1:30 p.m.
Final eliminations for the con¬

The contest deals with safety
and was initiated 18 years ago by
the parents of Phil Robinson, who
was accidentally killed on the
campus. The purpose of the con¬
test is to call attention to con¬
ditions on campus and in the com¬
munity that are dangerous to stu¬
dents. It also allows students to
gain experience in public speak¬
ing.
Each student must select a topic
from the general subject, “Prob¬
lems of Safety in Student Life”
and may speak about moral safe¬
ty or physical safety. Each speech
will last from five to six minutes.
The students are judged on or¬
ganization, originality and presen¬
tation.

PCC Joint Salary Guide
The principle of a separate
board to administer the Pasadena
JC District received support from
all eight contenders for seats on
the Pasadena School Board at a
meeting in Harbeson Hall last
Wednesday.
At the same meeting, Dr. Del-
mas Bugelli, president of the Col¬
lege Faculty Association, express¬
ed pleasure with the general ac¬
ceptance of this principle, and
then asked: “What plans, if any,
do the candidates wish to imple¬
ment ... in connection with a
change in the city charter to per¬
mit the formation of an autono¬
mous JC?”
Questioned further by the Cour¬
ier, Dr. Bugelli added, “What is
needed now is an intensive com¬
munity-wide information program
to effect changes in the city char¬
ter which will make this possible.”
He stated that school authorities
must inform citizens of adjust¬
ments to be made if PCC is to
avoid coming face to face with
mediocrity.
The meeting April 28 was spon¬
sored by Pasadena chapters of the
League of Women Voters and
the American Association of Uni¬
versity Professors. The eight
candidates are running for three
seats to be filled in the May 11
