'Mister Roberts,'
Starring Fonda,
Shows in Sexson
"Mister Roberts,” starring Hen¬
ry Fonda, James Cagney, William
Powell, Jack Lemmon and Ward
Bond, will be shown by the Inter¬
departmental Activities Commis¬
sion next Monday at 3:15 and 7:30
p.m. in Sexson Auditorium.
Tickets may be purchased for
50 cents from individual depart¬
ment members and at the door.
Directed by John Ford and
Mervyn LeRoy, the movie is
based on the novel by Thomas
Heffen and deals with the comical
happenings aboard a Navy cargo
ship. It relates how grateful
shipmates of cargo officer Mr.
Roberts, played by Fonda, help
transfer him to his desired com¬
bat mission.
The Saturday Review wrote at
the time of its release, that Mr.
Roberts “moves in short spurts
from highlight to highlight, from
the explosion in the laundry, the
homemade Scotch whiskey, to the
riotous liberty featuring the cap¬
ture of a goat.
“Funny as these incidents are,
they take on a cargo of emotion
because they explode around the
large intelligent ears of Mr. Rob¬
erts . . . Roberts is the buffer be¬
tween the lunatic captain and the
long suffering crew, but . . . his
heart is with the units of the fast
carrier task forces that slip past
in the morning hours. Fonda’s
performance in this role is su¬
perb.”
Profits from ticket sales to
“Mister Roberts” will be divided
among the participating depart¬
ments and used for scholarships
at the end of the year.

tional institutions.
According to the results of the
study released by John Weldon,
administrative dean of student
personnel, the breakdown also
shows that more than 400 mem¬
bers of the freshman class would

members of the class eligible for
enrollment at one of the 17 state

1963 Yearbook
Freshman Julie Pauloo has
been named editor of the 1962-63
edition of the Pageant, PCC’s
yearbook.
Miss Pauloo, a graduate of

Listing her major as journal¬
ism, she has been a member of

Student Government Provides
Learning in Democratic Ideas
Student government provides “a learning situation for students
in general democratic practices,” S. Luke Curtis, dean of student
activities, told Courier reporters at their weekly press conference.
The program, a regular feature of PCC’s FM station, KPCS
(89.3), can be heard tomorrow night at 7:45.
Asked if student government actually had any “real" power,
Dean Curtis explained that state law required administration approv¬
al of expenditure of any monies and also placed some other restric¬
tions on the scope of student activities.
He added that to his knowledge no PCC student government
spending had ever been vetoed.
Curtis explained that as dean of student activities he was re¬
sponsible for the student extra-curricular program, chairman of the
Theater Arts Board, and that he worked with the Tournament of
Roses on the selection of the Rose Queen.
He also discussed several other items of interest on the PCC
campus, among them:
On-campus Clubs: “There are approximately 60 clubs on campus.
There are athletic organizations, vocational groups, and educational
department councils. There are also service and honorary clubs.”
Off-campus Organizations: "We do not work with these organi¬
zations in a direct fashion; however we do work with their members
as Pasadena City College students.”
