Just think! Welve actually got the teachers worrying about us. It was first moved that we all be furnished with roller skates. After some discussion how- ever. it was decided that ice-skating - would be better. All the corridors and sidewalks around will be flooded for an ice skating rink. We Will all be. furnished with skates and also several regulations. These are as follows: 1. Nothing but skates are to be worn in the halls. 2. No one person may go alone without the stlong support of two others. 3. The ice must be furnished by the students entirely. W.A.

Page 2 LA TORRE La Torre is issued semi-monthly during October, February, April and May, and monthly in November, December, January and June-Price 50$ per year. Published'by the pupils of South Pasadena Junior High School. Entered as second class matter, December 18, 1929, at the Post Office at South Pasadena, under the act of March 3, 1879. Teachers Meais Revealed There are many pupils in this school 5 who believe that the teachers have different and better things to eat then we do, in the cafeteria. For their beneht I will tell you about an experience of mine; the time I dress- ed up in mask, wig, and high heel shoes, making myself look like Miss Robinson so that the rest of the teachers wouldh'd mind my eating with them. Well, the first things that I came to was Baker's products, rather tough dough you know. After taking a piece or twe I went on to the vegetable section. I never saw so much corn in all my life. There were black cobs, yellow cobs, brown cobs and Jacobs. The next foods were meat and fish. Seeing Mr. Mendenhall choking over a herring in a corner, I dug my fork into a piece of fish to see if it was really as boney as all that. To my surprise I found out that each fish had one hsh hook in it. What a Fig- cher! ! l I could do better than that. All of the meat that they had was: fowl, so I took a Robinson. Then I came to the toast and area- here. Next to each dish of ereek was a little card telling what kind it was. Of course, I had to get some 01? each kind I had never had before So. I had to eat Breitkreutz, Flakers, and Cheese Fluffs, and she reniied that they were not hurnt, Hjust,a little too Brown? V Now you can well understand that they have different food, riqht enough, but I leave it up to you to decide whether it is better than ours or not. Hutehins has gone er; aoa Hutchins Gees Crazy Much to the surprise of the child- ren of the Kidis Junior High School in South Pasadena, J. Randolpho one of the retest VViZChdS of the ages, who used to be a teazher, is on the loose again. He escaped from. the tower prison of the Junior High School where he vas in solitary 09.1 h'nement because of a nervous break- down as a result of getting rough with Bobby Sands, the schoolts rough- neck. It happened in this way. In his ' history class, little Bobby was mak- ing faces at Clarence Parmenter, Milton: Grassmuck, Jack Elsor, and Doris Larkey. Professor Hutchins told him that he was a naughty little boy and that he would have to stay after school. Bobby! who has an awful tome per would not have any teacher talk to him that way. So he told Mr. Hutu chins words that he hF-d never din t ed of hearing, and as a teen : Mt J.

HIGH SCHOOL No. 9 Special Literary Number Starr King Pupils Visit Our School + Our students ,body ofiicers played host to the executive board of Thomas Starr King Junior High School re- cently. These student officers spent an afternoon inspecting our building and visiting classes. They were en- thusiastic in their praise of the work- inspiring atmosphere and spirit of fiiendliness in our school. They were particularly impressed by our beaut- ification prOgram. These boys and girls from Starr King visited us after our own student 'bodyihad spent an afternoon at their school. Our officers found a number of good things being done at Starr Kng which we might adopt with modifications. Chief among these was the idea of Control Day. Every Tues- day they have what they call tiSilent Passing Day. They have their safety committee members stationed around the building to see that the pupils do not talk.

This interest should not be merely theoretical but should he thnr- oughiv practical. There are certain dngnite ways in whir-h the interest of the American citizen manifests it- self. Through these he recognizes cer- tain duties and obligations. First of: all, he finds the necessitv f0 ahiding by the laws of his nation and state. The laws are made by and for him. and in msoheying them he defeats his own piimoses. Before I 1 began the study of government I Page 11 . tContinued on Literary N umber La.

Davis' and Mr. Cooney,s science classes re- cently. These pictures portrayed how mankind originated according to the evolutionary theory. 011 c of tho highlig hts of the picture was the figure Of a man sawing wood photogrenhed through the eye of a fly, thereby enabling us to see things as a. fly would. The students were highly amused to see a. trained 11y juggle tiny Hy furniture with his legs and sit or: a small chair and eat from an equally small table. Another interesting part of the pic- ture was the portrayal of a group of ants busily removing a twig from the entrance of their home. These pictures were enioyed by the students because they differed from anything they had ever seen before.
