Voters to decide
fate of bond issue
California voters will decide the
fate of the proposed $270 million
bond issue for college and uni¬
versity construction on June 5.
If the issue, Proposition 3 on
the primary ballot, is passed, Cal¬
ifornia will start work on the
largest school construction pro¬
gram to date.
Over $123.7 million of the $270
million bond issue would be used
by the University of California to
expand its seven present campus¬
es and build two new campuses
to open in 1965.
The state colleges would uti¬
lize $127 million to increase fa¬
cilities on 16 existing campuses,
and to construct two new state
colleges scheduled for their first
classes in 1965.
California junior colleges will
receive $20 million for use in the
1963-64 fiscal year. The funds will
go to help meet an $87 million
building expansion program plan¬
ned on 66 junior college cam¬
puses. This would mark the first
time state bond funds would be
used for junior colleges.

and Liam, joined with Tommy
Makem after immigrating to the
United States.
Each member was working on
his own, but managed to get to¬
gether on weekends and join in
song “for the fun of it.” A little
over a year ago they started per¬
forming professionally as a group
and have been together ever
since.
This Irish union proved to be
beneficial, for the foursome has
had success, having appeared
at the Blue Angel and the Hun¬
gry i, staged concerts at Carnegie
Hall and Town Hall, and perform¬
ed or. the Ed Sullivan Show and
the Arthur Godfrey radio pro¬
gram.

NEW PUBLICITY CODE
Colorful 'dogpotch days’
set as carnival theme
The colorful days of Dogpatch and all its comic charac¬
ters will be re-created this Friday as the traditional OMD
carnival makes its appearance on Horrell Field. Twenty-tour
clubs on campus are sponsoring booths for the event, which
will run from 6:30 p.m. to mid¬
night.
Music, prizes, costumes and
lots of fun are the order of the
evening, according to OMD presi¬
dent Ed Sanders, who urged ev¬
eryone to come out for the eve¬
ning and join in the spirit of
Dogpatch.
HIGHLIGHTING the carnival
will be the crowning of Daisy
Mae at 10 p.m. The candidates,
all dressed as the famous girl¬
friend of Li’l Abner, will be pre¬
sented to the audience and, after
the winner is crowned, will pre¬
side over the carnival.
A penny-a-vote contest to de¬
termine Daisy Mae is presently
being held, with jars and candi¬
dates’ pictures in front of Sexson
Auditorium. Vying for the title
are Caroline Blake, sponsored by
the art department; Nancy Davis,
music; Barbara Fedorchuk, social
science; Meri Gage, physical edu¬
cation; Colleen Gray, English, Jo¬
anne Jacobsen, business; Linda
Wilson, life science; and Karen
Crosby, speech.
The winner of the recent Big
Man on Campus contest, Mike
Fisher, will escort the queen as
Li’l Abner.
LOCATED at one end of the
carnival grounds will be an area
for dancing, sponsored by the
English Council. The entrance to
the carnival will be in typical
Dogpatch fashion, as will be most
of the booth decorations.
Large straw hats and corn cob
pipes have been on sale in the
main hall this week, and Sanders
urged students to wear these and
any other costumes to the carni¬
val.
Many of the clubs have been
working for weeks on the design
and decoration of the booths.
Some clubs have reported mak¬
ing costumes for the members
typical of Li’l Abner, Daisy Mae,
Mammy Yokum, Marryin’ Sam
and hosts of others.
There will be a variety of
booths selling food or drinks,
among them the Forestry Club’s
“Bullmoose Still" (cokes); Sopho¬
more Class Council, cotton candy;
AWS, “Dogpatch Dagwoods”;
AMS, cider; Young Democrats,
coffee and doughnuts; and Eta
Delta, a general store.
SKILL GAMES will be the at¬
traction for many carnival partici¬
pants. Circle
К
is sponsoring a
water dunk; Adelphians, sponge
throw; Beta Phi Gamma, batter
throw; Signets, baseball throw;
Music Council, squirt gun-candle
game; Theta Rho Pi, record con¬
test.
Other unique booths will be the
Varsity Club’s Dogpatch Jail;
Freshman Class Council, Sadie
Hawkin’s Race; Lambda Delta
Sigma, “Break Manny's Record”;
Language Council, fortune tell¬
ing; Dana Club, "Slinging
through Dogpatch”; Spartans,
Marrying Sam; and the English
Council, a ticket raffle.
Trophies will be awarded dur¬
ing the carnival to the booths best
keeping in theme with “Dogpatch
Days” and for originality.
THE INDIVIDUAL clubs will
be able to use any profit they
make for their treasury after re¬
imbursing OMD for materials
used and rental of the booth. Any
profit made by OMD on the car¬
nival will be used to give the
Harbeson scholarships to the out¬
standing freshman woman and
man at the end of the year.
Tickets for the booths will be
sold at the carnival entrance.
There will be no handling of
currency by booth attendants,
Sanders reminded.
Another special feature of the
carnival this year will be the film¬
ing of the building and production
of the event for a permanent
movie. Friday afternoon and eve¬
ning members of the photography
production class will take moving
pictures and college radio sta¬
tion KPCS will tape interviews.
The film will be used in future
years for advertising and instruc¬
tion purposes for carnival work¬
ers.
Literary anthology
of student writings
on sale this week
“Pipes of Pan," containing
short stories, essays and poems
from the pens of Lancers goes
on sale this week in the book¬
store for 50 cents a copy.
Pasadena City College’s liter¬
ary anthology, published each
spring, is sponsored by the Eng¬
lish department and is under the
direction of Mrs. Beatrice Roden-
burg.
“Each entry was evaluated on
the basis of those principles
which are necessary for adequate
and sufficient standards of writ¬
ing,” stated Mrs. Rodenburg.
Some 124 manuscripts were
submitted for the 1962 edition of
Pipes of Pan, according to Mrs.
Rodenburg. However, only 22 of
these were passed by the club as
acceptable for inclusion in the an¬
thology.
Illustrations for this year’s
Pipes of Pan were created by Wil¬
liam Bockus’ art class, and Fred
Hammond served as printing ad¬
viser.
The staff includes Jim John¬
ston, editor-in-chief, and John
Lane, Killian Anderson and Nor¬
ma Dickson, associate editors.
forensics squad gained further
honors over the weekend by win¬
ning the Southern California Col¬
legiate Forensic Association
spring tournament at Pasadena
College.
The Lancers won out over 30
four-year and two-year schools,
including USC, Occidental, Loy¬
ola, Whittier. Redlands, Nevada,
San Diego State and Los Angeles

Ruth Payens and Jeanine Whi¬

Miss Payens won the extempo¬
raneous speaking, placed third in
impromptu and debate, and was
rated superior in extemporane¬
ous and debate and excellent in
impromptu.
Miss Whited captured oral in¬
terpretation and was third in ora¬
tory and debate. She was rated
superior in all categories.
Richard Rice was the other first
place winner in oral interpreta¬
tion. He was rated superior.
Several albums have already
been put out by the group who
accompany themselves with gui¬
tar, banjo and penny whistle.
This quartet has proved novel
in the musical world due to the
natural and unrehearsed way in
Which their act is put together.
Without the encumbrance of a
staged act — critics and audience
alike have given rave reviews to
the Clancy Brothers and Tommy
Makem.

The International Student Ac¬
tivities Commission is sponsor¬
ing a mix ’n mingle today from
