Homecoming Week, November 13
to 18.
A staff of hundreds has been
planning and preparing to make
this the best homecoming ever.
Festivities begin Monday, as
this year’s “Roaring 20’s” theme
will be carried out not only on
campus, but also throughout the
City of Pasadena.
Mayor Boyd Welin has declared
the special week an official one
for Pasadena. Displays and cos¬
tumes are planned for many store
windows.
Homecoming buttons, imitation
straw hats, and traditional mums
will be sold all week.
THE ANNUAL AWS Ragtime
Reception will be held Tuesday
at noon. Two bands will blast the
air with music: a rock band on
the Campus Center patio, and a
Dixieland band in the coffee shop.
Root beer and refreshments will
be served.
The homecoming court will be
presented for the first time at the
reception.
Wednesday will be the first of
three days when students can vote
for homecoming queen. A S
В

a vote. All that is required is an
ID card. Polls will be set up at
various spots on campus.
The mum sale, sponsored by the
Freshman Class, will begin Wed¬
nesday.
THE HOMECOMING pep rally
will be held Thursday at noon on
the Campus Center patio, saluting

spirit is predicted to “run ram¬
pant,” as cheerleaders and song
grisl lead the pep and the home¬
coming court is again presented.
Friday, held open to give stu¬
dents a chance to prepare for Sat¬
urday, has nothing planned thus
far.
Participating organizations will
decorate their cars Saturday for

College Council Meets
Changes for the College Catalog
were discussed at the College
Council meeting last week. Ad¬
ministrative organization struc¬
ture was also discussed and
will be continued in today’s
meeting.
The ASB Board meeting of last
Thursday started out quietly but
soon lost its tranquility as ASB
president Scott V. Ousdahl, under
the heading of personal com¬
ments, reprimanded the clubs for
their conduct at a service club pic¬
nic in Lacey Park.
The essence of that communi¬
cation is quoted:
“The clubs and organizations
that participated are not impor¬
tant. I am not going to tear apart
any one club. I want to get some¬
thing across to the students and
members of the Board.
“The service clubs have fallen
flat on their faces and have given
Pasadena City College a name not
to be proud of.
“I have received phone calls
from the San Marino Police Dept.,
the San Marino Parks and Recre¬
ation Dept., and Mrs. Jo Ann
Wise. Mrs. Wise’s son was hit
on the back of the head by a fly¬
ing egg at the picnic.
“If I were a member of AMS
or JE’s, I would be ashamed to
walk down the street and see the
look of disgust on the family’s
faces.
“The complaining parties know
who we are, for they knew who to
To find and plan ways of im¬
proving the instructional program
at PCC is the purpose of the Stu¬
dent Curriculum Committee.
By discussing suggestions for
curriculum changes and additions
and presenting them to the admin¬
istration, the committee hopes to
help provide the student with the
best education possible at PCC.
These suggestions are from the
faculty, students, the administra-
ask for when they called. They
reported that laws were broken
and the place was left in a mess.
“A closed meeting will be held
for the members and presidents
of these organizations. They will
be looked into very thoroughly. If
they cannot prove their worth on
campus — that they have a pur¬
pose; if they cannot prove that
this type of activity will not con¬
tinue, I will do everything in my
power to have the administration,
the students of this school, and
members of this Board get rid of
these organizations.
“County, state, school, and edu¬
cation laws were broken. It is
disgusting. I will try to get strict
disciplinary action for these
clubs.
“I would like to commend the
women’s organizations for leav¬
ing as soon as the conduct got out
of hand.”
Ousdahl also commented that
all the members of the service
clubs should have ASB cards as
they are receiving ASB benefits.
Alan Test presented a proposal
for the ASB Board to go on rec¬
ord as demanding free speech for
any and all speakers on campus
at any time.
tion, and also from interested citi¬
zens in the community.
THE SCC received its greatest
recognition in 1960, when after the
accreditation visit by the State
Department of Education repre¬
sentatives, it was proclaimed the
finest organization at PCC.
As Dr. Delmas Bugelli, admin¬
istrative dean for instruction, and
the group’s adviser said, “SCC is
the one unifying element on cam¬
pus as it involves a common en¬
vironment, the instructional pro¬
gram.”
Role of SCC members is to pro¬
vide the student with “classes rel¬
evant to the times — now and the
future.”
SOME of the accomplishments
of last year’s SCC included: the
“photo” cover on this semester’s
PCC Bulletin; a better quality of
paper in the Bulletin that does
not reflect light; and dropping of
the required basic communica¬
tions course and the beginning the
new freshman orientation pro¬
gram this semester.
