A 5lS250,000 pay-as-you-go project has been plan- ned by the Board of Education to provide relief to the poor people who have to 'lsqueeze through not only halls, but classrooms, the offices, the library, laboratories, dressing rooms, and showers. On Thursday the fourteenth, we find most students very happy at having an unexpected holiday in honor of the meeting of the Progres- sive Education Association, which is meeting at the State College. Fifty-some students play human guinea pigs, victims of the conference. In the morning they hold a public conversation, and in the afternoon discuss a movie on human relations. A week later Ends the Cali- fornia Scholarship Federation advisors holding their seventeenth annual convention at El En- canto Hotel. In Mr. Bowman's inner office, YN'elfare Chairman Bill Elliott presides with authority over his council of seven. Jack Wuest is asked to call from the miscellaneous group in the outer office either the monitor who issued the welfare slip, or his victim, if the monitor is not there. It seems that both are expected to be present, but that both seldom are, and often neither one answers when called for. The case is then presented and questions asked by mem- bers of the Council to collect all evidence. The victim is sent out while his case is tried and he is given demerits-not too many, usually. The culprit is called back in, and informed of his knowledge of the law and deliberate diso- bedience. One person was appreciative enough of the Councills efforts toward law and order to say uthank you when told of her demerits. The condemned walks out, and the council gets involved in a heated discussion which has to be broken up periodically by the able man- agement of Mr. Elliott. Marian Moser, secre- tary, sometimes has a rather diflicult time trying to keep records of the cases above the din. WELFARE COUNCIL Bottom row: Caldwell, Pierce. Saunders. Moser.

And not only were the whoops for the fact that the paper is out, but lo and behold, a six column Forge at last! An enlarged publication has long been needed, what with the steady and rapid increase in the size of the student body and the conse- quent need of more room to tell of the increas- ing student activities. And at last we have it. The football season is off to a good start Friday, September 17, with the 19-2 victory over Fillmore. This also is our Hrst night game with the new flood lights installed by the State College. The college is letting us use them for a certain number of games in return for the use of the field for their games. The victory over Fillmore was duplicated a week later over Compton in a 26-6 victory. For the girls, because of the popularity of tennis, four new courts are to be built on the old R.O.T.C. grounds. Along with their return to school, the girls have brought the usual supply of new fads, particularly beanies. But, woe to the hearts om manv, thev are doomed to a short life as articles for school use--but see them blossom out at the football games! Other attractions are page-bov bobs, Mexican sandals, short skirts, and loud shirts-and howl And so ends Reel I, leaving everyone busily engaged in new work and in numerous plans for the coming month. l THANK you: The Olive and Gold staff wishes to X thank the following people for their con- f tributions to the success of this hook: The Santa Barbara Associates for the scenic photographs used in the open- ing section.

When the bell rings, the list of offences is still so long that it is necessary to plan a special meeting. In the work of the classes themselves, many significant changes are taking place. Mr. Peter Reidel's Landscape Architecture class has been given the care of the fifteen-acre Fran- chesi Park by the Park Board, which could not afford its upkeep. Classes are held in the old Fenzi home. In caring for the grounds, the students learn seeding, planting, budding, and pest control, the common and scientific names of plants, and the care of all garden tools. The purpose of the class is to train students by prac- tical experience to become efficient gardening foremen for job gardening and all other types of work in this field. This course is offered in no other high school in the United States. Mr. Earl Murray is experimenting with his period II trig class, using field trips instead of books, and giving gradeless examinations. Candid-man' Harry Stock. Mr. Roscoe Lyans has a special period photography class, the purpose of which is to teach some of the more technical angles of photography. It is one of the most popular special period groups. Several new joint courses are being offered this year. Miss Jeanette Ellison is teaching a two period class combining tenth grade history and tenth grade English. Mrs. Ethel Myers and Mrs. Mildred Weissend are teaching eleventh grade history, llB English, and American literature. Each teachs the same group of stu- dents one period, keeping the subject matter articulated. Mr. Howard Walters is teaching a two-period class combining eleventh grade history, 11B English, and civics. Miss Ethel Moss is teaching a single period class in Ameri- can Citizenship. Mr. Earl Murray, curriculum director for the school, is teaching a non-math major geometry class, in which he is attempt- ing to show how the principles of geometry may be applied to life situations. Mr. Charles Rhoades is teaching a two-hour course in out- door projects which includes gardening and general shop work. Friday the eighth we find we have as guests on the R.O.T.C. field, the General Mo- tors Parade of Progress caravan, consisting of twenty-four trucks, nineteen passenger cars, and sixty-two men-plus families. All students are dismissed fourth period to go down and see eggs fried on a cold stove and other wonders in the Circus of Science, and inspect the side- shows. Most notable among October assemblies is the Scholarship Society's television assembly on the eighth, presenting Mr. Hoskins and his equipment. We find most of the clubs getting under way this month. Quill and Scroll announces tryouts for membership, offered for the first time. The Press Club has election of ofiicers with Marna Warren as the new president, and initiates its new members.
