June 6 This year circumstances have prevented the bands from taking any extensive trip. However, both bands are the best that Chico State has ever had, and she may be proud of them, not only for their playing but for their appearance as well. Everyone who has ever been on a band trip, will vouch for the fact that they certainly are fun, and it is to be hoped that next year the bands will be able to help advertise the school as well as add to their exchequer in this delightful I'l'13I11'1CI'. -.,.5g.E 3.3g.,,-

S HI J INKS HE ANNUAL Girls' Hi Jinks was held last year on November 17 and was heralded as the most successful one in the history of our school. Over three hundred and nfty girls, including faculty women, were present, all gaylv dressed in costumes of every description. Many countries and different characters Were portrayed by the laughing, dancing, merry-making crowd. The program, which took up most of the evening, was enthusiastically received by the audience. The various clubs and organizations staged the follow- ing skits: Prodigal, a story of health, was put on by the girls of the Home Eco- nomics class. The faculty showed their usual ability in presenting Statues? , a portrayal of famous masterpieces. The Alpha Chi girls staged a Bowery pantomime called Frankie and Johnnie, with Maxine Forcum singing an accompaniment. The Shoemaker and the Elves was presented by the Candlelight Club in pantomime. The Lanternlight girls, wearing pretty gold and purple outiits, staged a clever drill. The Delta Sigma Epsilon presented Love Through the Ages, which traced love-making from the age of the cave man to the love of future days. The College Girls Christian Association gave a novel act entitled In the Region of the Stomach, stressing the fact that we should be more careful of our diet. Pi Kappa Sigma girls gave a burlesque of some popular songs, with a melody accompaniment sung by Orva Bybee. The dancing act put on by Delta Sgima was very effective. Following this, the Bidwell Hall girls staged a very creditable tumbling act under the direction of Misses Rockwood and Gocke. Ruth Watterson as yell leader added to the spirit of the evening with songs and yells. Dancing and refreshments topped off the evening. 47 Es'

THE BIGLOGY FIELD TRIP AY 9:-At 6:00 A. M. we left the College for Moss Beach via Stockton. Along about noon we devoured our pickled frog legs and munched upon our shark meat sandwiches. Three o'clock and some of the cars cast anchor at Moss Beach amid the pop-eyed wonder of the natives. CThey no spik da Eng- lesh.l XVe all got a big surprise that evening when Jerry Crenshaw publicly pro- posed to Bertha Richardson. MAX' 10:-Getting up at 4:00 A. M., we hastily clothe our shivering limbs, down our coffee and sinkers, and hie ourselves to the beach for an engagement with the denizens of the deep. Old Neptune calls off the waves so that we sorta get an edge on the shore life which we place in our buckets with great zeal. Turner trots around giving directions, someone yowls that an octupus has got them and we untangle the dear girl from the sea-weed, and then a whistle is blown and everyone tears for camp. Breakfast is served a la carte with blasted little carte. Someone delivers a perfectly heavenly discourse upon the fun we're going to have preserving the specimens and someone else decides she doesn't want any more breakfast. Clt was probably one of those botany students: they're weak stomachedl More collection after lunch by the botany students. and then dinner at six. That evening a mighty tragedy is enacted, the title of which is the Lighthouse Keeper. Sally Bennett hobbles about as the old lighthouse keeper, Ruth Stamper childishly skips and hops as the sweet little daughter Cand believe us she was the cutest little thingj, George Stuckey sneers around as the terrible villain, and Paul Byrne comes rushing up as the heroic doctor. MAY l l :-More coffee and sinkers and then down to the beach again where we search out the specimens which escaped our scientiiic eyes the morning before. At 8:30 we lug the expiring animals into camp where we cold-heartedly let them expire while we gormandize, or in plain English, line our alimentary canals with nutritious filament. After nicely bottling our latest specimens in formaldehyde, we pile into the cars for a jaunt over to the La Honda redwoods. The botany students wax enthusiastic, but Miss Holt is firm and does not yield to their plead- ings that they be allowed to bring home a few redwood specimens. Rebellion is quelled by the production of the lunches brought along. Back to camp for dinner at six. Funny how everyone is present for such events. Bertha Richard- son recites a poetic history of the Omicron Theta Epsilon, and George Stuckey receives the first degree of his initiation into that great order. MAY 12:-Having exhausted the ocean of its life, we pack up and leave for home via San Francisco. In Golden Gate Park at the aquarium we notice a few animals that maybe we didn't get in our collection and resolve to get them next year. Selah. -..gf 49
