IRC Presents
First Meeting

The co-chairmen of the IRC are
David Laidig and Kathy Lamb.
Miss Vezerian, organizer of the
event, said, “We couldn’t be more
pleased with the response to
Club Day, both by the students
and the participating clubs.” She
added that with the large number
and the great variety of clubs
here, every student should be able
to find an organization which ap¬
peals to his or her particular in¬
terests.

The Big Day is Friday with a
full lineup of activities. Beginning

Tim Morgon Serenades
Students, Candidates
By Stan Conger
Not long ago, South Viet Nam
turned out more than 80 per cent
of all eligible voters in its national
elections.
Naturally it would be ridiculous
of us to expect a similar turnout
for the Freshman Class elections,
to be held October 6 and 7.
Since you won’t have to go
through any mine fields on your
way to the polls, as the Vietnam¬
ese did, and since the polls will
be open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. on
both days, student leaders expect
enough interest to be shown that
there will be a good vote turnout.
For several years any PCC elec¬
tion has been considered big if
200 to 300 students vote. Yet
everyone continually complains
about do-nothing government and
the like.
There are several things you
can do to improve this situation.
(1) You can buy a student body
card, because you can’t vote with¬
out it. (2) You can go to the elec¬
tions assembly tomorrow at noon
and hear a brief statement from
the two candidates after which
Tim Morgon will entertain you.
(3) Information on the candidates
will be posted in the Pep Commis¬
sion office (Campus Center),
throughout the pre-election peri¬
od. (4) Finally, you will find in¬
formation distributed by the can¬
didates at various points around
the campus as the voting date
ROBERT DONAHUE
. . . frosh candidate
draws near. You may even be
able to corner one of them person¬
ally after Thursday’s assembly.
The results of the voting will
be tabulated by IBM, which means
you will receive an easy-to-use
IBM ballot. For those who may
become confused, there will be in¬
dividuals working at the polling
stations who can help you. The
voting booths will be placed at
various strategic spots on campus
(such as the Campus Center).
Here are the candidates: (1)
Robert Donahue is formerly of
Crescenta Valley High School,
where he was a member of the
Letterman’s Club, a Senate and
Red Cross Representative, and
was his Explorer Post president.
His interests include football,
Car Pools
Ease Traffic
Those who are interested in al¬
leviating the travel burden of
others, as well as themselves,
should avail themselves of the
Student Car Pool now being or¬
ganized.
Procedure for “entering the
ranks” is simple. A three-section
metal cabinet in the Senate office
holds the cards. Students are re¬
minded to put an area code in the
upper right hand of the card.
(Pasadena and the surrounding
cities have been partitioned and
numbered 1-9.)
Ride seekers should fill out a
white card, then rummage
through the blue cards. The blue
cards will be filled out by those
looking for riders. Copy the nec¬
essary information.
Students wishing to form a car
pool should complete a special
card, then look for other names
in the same file in the same area.
basketball, and baseball. As a phy¬
sical education major, he plans to
transfer to Brigham Young.
Platform: (1) He states his pur¬
pose in running as a desire to
serve the freshman class rather
than his ego. (2) He intends to
develop more communication be¬
tween students and student lead¬
ers, although at present his ideas
on how to do this are a bit slim.
(3) He hopes to pool the resources
of the freshman and sophomore
classes so that the activities will
increase in quality. (4) He will at¬
tempt the enormous task of pro¬
viding activities and programs to
meet the needs of all the students.
(2) Linda Pearce is next. She
came here from Rosemead High
School where she was member of
her school’s House of Representa¬
tives, Judicial Board, Student
Council, Pantheresses, Annual
Business Staff (president two
years), AFS treasurer, Tennis
Club, school photographer, and
class cabinet. At PCC she has
joined the Pep Commission and

Rude Talks
at English
Colloquium
For the first English depart¬
ment colloquium of the year, Ben
Rude, assistatnt professor of Eng¬
lish, will speak on “Obscenity, an
Objective View” on Friday, Sept.
30, at 10 a.m. in Harbeson Hall.
He will explore the changes of
reputation undergone by certain
words in our language through¬
out the history of their use. Ac¬
cording to Rude, the prevalent
view of obscenity and profanity
results from the age-old supers¬
tition that there is magic in
words, that the word is insepara¬
ble from its referent. In reality,
Rude feels, there is no such thing
as a “dirty word.”
Mrs. Norma Sullivan is the
chairman. An agenda for the fall
semester has been compiled by
Mrs. Sullivan. It will be as fol¬
lows:
George Luber: “Ezra Pound:
Man and Poet” — Friday, Oct. 28
at 11 a.m.
Ronald Koertge: “The Function
of Fiction” — Friday, Nov. 18 at
12 noon.
Betty Kovacs: “Camus’ The
Plague” — Friday, Dec. 9 at 1 p.m.
Woodrow Ohlsen, Hugh Peter¬
sen and Norma Sullivan: “D. H.
Lawrence: Preacher, Psychologist
and Artist” — Friday, Jan. 6 at 2
p.m.
Everyone is invited to attend
the colloquiums. Teachers are
welcome to bring classes.
Pipes of Pan
“Pipes of Pan,” PCC’s literary
anthology, is soliciting manu¬
scripts for its 1967 publication.
Original stories, poems and es¬
says are desired. Material may
be placed in the Pipes of Pan
box in the English office, 109C.
