Judges were selected by Mrs. Vesta Fairbarin, president of the guild, and they judged without re¬ muneration.

'Musical America Theme For PCC Spring Concert By MAL LUMBY PCC’s Concert Choir presented “Musical America” as the theme of the spring concert in Sexson Auditorium Saturday night. The program was divided into three sections, the last of which was the most entertaining. For the finale, the choir was seated in two sections for the pre¬ sentation of selections from “Fid¬ dler on the Roof.” Skillfully presented was the song “Tradition.” Shirley Pyle and Cathy Crawford sang the solo parts in “Matchmaker.” Both Assembly Fees For King Fund The proceeds from the Spiral Starecase assembly will go into PCC’s Martin Luther King Fund. So voted the ASB Board, unani¬ mously, at last week’s meeting. Another vote at the meeting was for money ($5 to $6) to buy the necessary paint for the floor of the Campus Center’s outside patio. PCC sign art students will do the painting over the patio’s pres¬ ent coating, which is peeling. Charles Clark, Senate presi¬ dent, will write an article on the Math Qualifying Test, which he feels is now inadequate. He announced to the Board the Senate’s new first and second vice- president, elected at last week’s Senate meeting. They are Mike Karpiel, first, and Skip Duenes, second. The Inter-Club Council’s newly elected president is Adrian Thom¬ as, who is also president of the Newman Club. Budget hearings are still being held. In an interview with Courier editor Bernard Comas after his landslide victory, Traylor said he would try to involve more stu¬ dents in campus life. “I will attempt to make as many student functions on cam¬ pus as possible. I will make it a point to encourage board mem¬ bers to do the same. There should be a personal communication be¬ tween the board and the organiza¬ tions on campus. We will try to let them know that we are there to help them in any way possible.” Traylor beat his opponent, Er¬ nie Posey, soundly with 351 votes to 195. Traylor’s vice-presidential run¬ ning mate, Bowler, did not have it so easy, winning over Bob Ser¬ rano by only 18 votes, 274 to 256. Lowry defeated his opponent, Raoul Gagne, by 13 votes, 265 to 220. James Herling won easily over Dale Wade. Running unopposed were Rudy Fordham and Patti Eikenbery, who got 238 and 164 votes, respec¬ tively. coeds show promise in singing careers. The most unusual single pre¬ sentation of the concert was “Valse.” Spoken in rhythm rath¬ er than sung, “Valse” represents a breakaway from choral tradi¬ tion. “Songs Mein Grossmama Sang” was a series of nursery rhymes sung in “fractured German.’ Here is an example: “Der small- isch Johann Horner ben ge-sitten in das corner del Yule-tiden stru¬ del ge-stuffen. Der thumber in ge- sticken und out ge-pullen quicken mit burnen und blisters ge-puf- fen.” “Frere Jacques” was beautifully interpreted by the Concert Choir, contrasting a trio of singers pre¬ senting the main part of the song wit hthe choir singing the sounds of chiming bells. Annual Art Show To Be Presented The Pasadena City College an¬ nual Student Art Show begins to¬ day in the new art gallery with a reception at 2 p.m. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 7 to 9 p.m. on the same days. In keeping with past art shows, many different types of work will be displayed. All types of sub¬ jects will be represented in the painting displays. The selection will vary from abstracts to real¬ istic still lifes. Sculpture works will be display¬ ed in many different types of ma¬ terials. Besides sculpture and painting, other types of art works to be represented will be exam¬ ples of interior design, paintings on fabric, and poster art. Photo¬ graphs of unusual subjects will also be featured. SECOND MAN — James Bowler, newly elected ASB vice-president, who won over Bob Serrano by 1 8 votes, holds the second spot in the student government's new one-two team for the fall semester. Publications Choose Editorial Personnel New editors have just been ap¬ pointed for Aspect and Pipes of Pan. Both Steve Lantz, editor-in- chief of Aspect, and Michael Murphy, head of the Pipes staff, will begin their work in the fall semester. Lantz will work through the summer sessions in an effort to release the winter Aspect by De¬ cember; assistant editor Mai Lum¬ by will hold primary responsibil¬ ity for the February issue. It is hoped that three or four issues wifi be released next year. Susan Lantz, current Aspect ed¬ itor, hopes to see the second is¬ sue released within a very short time. It will contain more edito¬ rials as well as the results of the English Department literary con¬ test. Next year, depending upon available funds, the student maga¬ zine will be much larger and more varied. Contributed stories, es¬ says, and poems will be accepted from the student body and fac¬ ulty. Printing will, however, de¬ pend upon the decision of the edi¬ tors. Mike Murphy will be assisted by Mrs. Henrietta Abels in edi¬ torial responsibility for Pipes of Pan. Both students are enrolled in the creative writing class taught by adviser Ivan Jones. Pipes, PCC’s literary anthology, is a publication of the English Department. It is not supported by the student body. Students are invited to submit material for possible publication. Spiral Starecase The final assembly of the spring semester will be held May 29 in Sexson Auditorium at noon, fea¬ turing the Spiral Starecase. The group, nationally known for its hit record, “More Today Than Yesterday,” consists of five members and will perform rock, standard, and blues numbers during the performance. Ad¬ mission is free with an ASB card and $1 without. Receipts from the performance will be donated to the Martin Luther King Fund which was set up to award scholarships to needy students. This donation was ap¬ proved by the ASB Board at its meeting last Thursday.
