HOLDEN ...... l M'l'l:l'Y AIIYISIIIIS The Student Body of l928-l929 has shown the true Cardinal spirit and backed all school activities, making possible the successful completion of the most pretentious program that Covina Union High has ever undertaken. The budget for this year has been the largest in our school's history and an idea of the rapidity of our financial progress may be obtained from the fact that this budget is some six times as large as the one adopted five years ago. The scholarship fund is proving very helpful and is being used to its best advantage. Over one thou- sand dollars has been borrowed by graduates of Covina to aid them in the completion of their edu- cation. Assembly programs have been well above the average and have practically all been given by out- side talent, which is greatly to be appreciated. Taken all in all, this has been Covina l-li's most successful year, and it is hoped that it is only a fore- runner of liner and more successful years of school life. JOE ROSS. 59 N. Q ' . rp ,sz p.

X R Il Xl NIL W Same Old Gang Football Talk? 7' l M r POB!!! OSoG Student Sept. Sept. Sept. Sept. 10. Whoopeel What fun! The campus was a blaze of gaudy socks and suspenders worn by the strutting Senior boys. Cowering Frosh scurried about trying to keep out of sight, and the shrieking Sophs fell all over each other in their joy at being back again. Everywhere were Froshl Frosh boys shining Senior shoes, Frosh girls marching around the flagpole under the direction of gleeful upperclass girls, more Frosh boys riding out to the end of Citrus and walking back. Guilty looking girls strolled casually about in bright, vari-colored socks, showing off their summer tan to advantage and exchanging summer confidences. Three rings of the rusty old bell brought the whole mob clattering into Assembly, Juniors playfully punching one another, Seniors re- moving new and green Frosh from the front seats, and Sophomores failing dismally in an attempted yell. After Mr. lVlillikan's greeting, Bill Duncan welcomed the Frosh and the rest of the Student Body and introduced the various commission- ers. With the preliminaries over, the Frosh were left to the motherly care of Mr. Ross- and one more school year commenced,-the last for some of us. 11. Nothing happened after all yesterday's excitement. The Frosh and Ed. Gates are still trying to End their class rooms. 12. Assembly made conspicuous by its absence. 13. Friday aftemoon and oh, for a game! Many of last year's veterans, including Captain Chamberlain, Rawson, Ross, Fischer, Armel, Duncan, Johnson and others have appeared. l-larold's powerful line bucking and ability to kick goals, along with his passing, and open field running ability, raises Covina's stock. The joe's-Rawson and Ross-along with Comp- ton, Rudy, Stew, and johnson, are all working well in the line, while Duncan, Gene, Harold, Bryson and Shively ramble in the backfield. The team is pepped up to win all the sched- uled games and the entire school is behind them. E101

Training was broken as football heroes rode bucking ponies on the merry-go-round. Bobo Baxter encountered difiiculties while attempt- ing to make entrance to the Fair Grounds through a hole in the fence which proved to be smaller than he had anticipated. 18. Lurid posters, begging, beseeching and urging students to subscribe to the Cardinal and White were everywhere. Journalism students failed to expose the surprise hinted at in the posters. 19. Pep assembly! President Bill delivered a hard-boiled speech on school traflic-no left or U turns. Eugene lVlcNatt made his debut as a Frosh in a skit. the prob- Cardinal Bill and Bill Dredge magnaminously solved lem of the surprise posters-free and White for each lad and lassie. Alan managed to wring out a few yells from the assembled mob and Coach Newman sur- passed Webster in a speech in which he spoke earnestly on the merits, good and bad, of this year's team. Calls for Chamberlainl sent our blushing captain to his feet, whereupon he delivered an address on the character of his teammates and the psychology and effect of the feminine influence in football. As the three o'clock bell peeled out its wel- come note a general rush for free papers oc- curred. The best things in life are freel 20. Amidst yawns and sleepy giggles the A-Wah-Heh hikers started out at 5 o'clock this morning for their Hrst early hike. Sixteen descendants of Shakespeare man- aged to convince the judges that they were eligible for Masque and Dagger membership. The powerful Ross dynasty came to light today when j. Foster Ross was elected Presi- dent of the Senior Class. 21. Football with a vengeance! Varsity cleaned Roosevelt I4-0. Backfield did mid- season work.
