Bowman, vice-principal of our fair school, unanimously elected presi- dent of the Southern Section of the California Teachers Association. He will head the nine southern counties, which represent one half the state, and of which over 17,000 teachers are members. The main purpose of this organiza- tion is to try to serve the teachers in all ways, work for better working conditions, time, and salaries for them, and maintain a teachers, home. Ten boys and fifty-four girls have enrolled in the special course for Christmas employment offered for three special sessions by the Em- ployment Committee and given by Miss Tulita De la Cuesta, Mr. Wiley B. Tonnar, and Mr. James A. Woods. Good appearance and man- ners are emphasized. Plans for practical applications of the training received at the Garden Street cottage by girls of the second year Home Arts course, are discussed at a meeting of the Home Arts Advisory Committee, December 6. The plan suggests placing girls in ten households, all as different as possible, and rotating them, so that all will receive wider experience in household training. The two main objectives of the Com- mittee are to give better preliminary vocational training in school, with more opportunity for placement and to better the working conditions, and raise the wage standard. Mr. Earl Murray's progressive education experiment on his trig class continues to be in- teresting. While one row is in the Held doing a practical problem, the rest of the class is solv- ing original problems, reading math books to report on, or working on projects, particularly sundials. Notable among the month's outside speakers, we have Captain Tailleur, elderly sea captain of sailing vessels, who relates some of his adventures, and best of all, presents the school with an interesting and intricate model of one of his ships. After being displayed in the showcase. it Finds its permanent resting place in the library. The Santa Barbara High School band gives its fall concert Friday, December 3 at 8 :30 in the auditorium for the purpose of raising funds for the new uniforms they are so badly View-princifval Borvmazz eluted head of Cal- . :forma Tvacllvm AJ'Sl7L'1Ufl0iI, southern scclzuzl. in need of. An interestingly varied program contains several outstanding solos. As the last thing before the Christmas holidays, and as the most outstanding produc- tion of the semester, we have 'iBethlehem Road by Mary Ann Hubbard, a three act Christmas play given free to students and townspeople the nights of December 16 and 17, and involving the services of nine different divisions of the school.

, E . . i ff ai!! Lcft: Casfas about to Iatcral tall to Marlo zn Whittirr game. Right: A dog pile in the Glendale game. marble bags and 100 jack bags to be Hlled, and thirty dolls collected and dressed. These are all to be turned over to the Neighborhood House. The French Club holds a party where everyone brings a toy, all to be given to the Neighborhood House. The Hi-Y's merge in giving a party at which admission is charged. The proceeds are turned over to a local church. The Big S also makes stockings for the Neighborhood House. December sees the last of football for this year. The next to the last game is played in the Santa Ana bowl, where the Dons overcome the local team 21-18. At last the day of the championship game with Glendale arrives, and the stadium is packed. At the kick-off and various other times during the games, spectators are doused in showers of confetti and torn-up papers. Between halves, the bands of both schools put on a magnificient show. But, for the Hrst time this season, the Dons are doomed to defeat, losing to Glendale 15-14-. Itls hard to take defeat after such a victorious season, but the Dons played a good game and meet their setback bravely. Starting the pigskin season off with a bang, Latinee Gullatte, copper-skinned speedster, sprang into the limelight by scoring two touch- downs. He broke away for a romp of 70 yards for one score, the other being made from the six-yard line. The Compton game uncovered a new passing combination, Batzianis to Costas, which clicked for two touchdowns. Sylvester, southpaw passer, came to the front in the Hrst Ventura game. On his first play of the game, he rifled a touchdown pass to Gullatte. He made a habit of this through- out the season. It was in the Pasadena game that Tonv Spence, sub back, first got a chance to show his tricky change of pace and blazing break-away speed. Grabbing a blocked kick and racing 54 yards to a touchdown in the Inglewood game, Chuck Begg, husky Don guard, realized every linesman's dream. George Batzianis, ace sopho- more passer, had a field day against Santa Maria, He scored two touchdowns on line plays and passed the Santa Maria secondary defense dizzy. Gullatte broke away for a 54 yard romp against Phoenix. A pass from Sylvester to Val- entino clicked for a touchdown in this game. Peter Gutierrez replaced Cliff Wrightson in the Phoenix game, due to Wrightsonls injury. Gu- tierrez performed remarkably well. Don Tapie, six foot two inch tackle, who was injured early in the season, hit his stride in this game. The seven charges of dynamite-Valentino, Melchiori, Castagnola, Wrightson, Begg, Tapie, Keiper-which is the entire Don forward wall, earned their title for their slashing, bone-crush- ing type of ball playing. Ed Keiper, Don wing man, covered himself with glory in the Chino Fullback Joe Irlerlo-one of tht' but in Southern California, say Jndgvs.
