SEPTEMBER OCTOBER NOVEMBER DECEMBER JANUARY FEBRUARY MARCH APRIL MAY JUNE CALENDAR Everybody in line just dying to get rid of their money: don't worry, it will be more next fall. So back we are to hear R. Tacker's classroom siren, and Clare Rock Aps' exactly so. Everybody's rushin' around. Capri, the Spirit of Oakland, demon- strates what the well-dressed gentleman takes off in Rich Man, Poor Man. At last with much dramatic prologue, the Wildcats arrive and thereafter establish their habitat in the cage. Let us kneel and thank our betters for the blessings of the month of November: vacation and Hi Jinks. I'm coming home, l'm coming home, to live my Wasted life anew, for Sparky's prayers have followed me, have followed me the whole life through. Alpha Chi announces that they have studied harder last year: do I still hear the echoes of the Pi Kap's wails? Podunk delegates hear Pittman, Heffernan and Hume. All the little kindergarteneprimar- ies go home to hang up their stockings and wait for Santa Claus. Prexy wants to know what whoopee is, he's lucky he didn't have to pay a dollar to find out. Zannon is given a white ballot. Gen- erous. Oh, so they want more money, do they? Red hot S. B. meeting in which Stuckey wins the endurance contest while Mel- linger brings home the cup for speed in tongue manipulation. New boarding house opens for business at 233 Salem. Olker must have an etiquette book for student bodies cached away some- where. There are only twenty days of school this month anyway. Today decides tomorrow all right, very E-zily. Masons get a chance to high hat us. Bring forth the gum-studded water pitcher for the embryo Hoovers at the Presidents' Convention. Bunch dance? All bunched up? Mr. Bell should read the papers, tsik, tsik, dirty stories in class! Aren't some men chivalrous when they have to be. Shades of Iota Sigma! Whiskers get all tangled up with applications, and hoops with clearance cards. Where's the i'mare ? Everyone in favor of being paid to leave school, signify by saying aye. The Big Parade where the all honorables receive along with their diplomas, certificates of their absolute ability to exist indefinitely in the Black Hole of Calcutta. 51 lja..-

The new association came into being during the 1928-1929 year, develop- ing, on the urge of widespread favorable sentiment, from a dream in the minds of the members of an unoflicial committee, into a growing organization which staged a successful Homecoming Day, November 3, 1928, and has definite plans under way for a better one on November 2, 1929. The development of the organization has not always been a path of roses: for instance, last Homecoming Day was timed in perfect coincidence with a rain- storm. But those persons executively engaged in interests of the alumni have resisted discouragement, for they carried in their hearts a pledge that the oft- expressed desire for organization of the Chico alumni must be fully realized. Last Homecoming Day was suddenly conceived, hastily planned, and hur- riedly organized, and met with unfavorable Weather conditions: but even so, there were over ninety very enthusiastic people present, from all parts of the state. The next Homecoming Day shows every possibility of having a fuller and better program because of the much greater time to be given to preparation, and because of the experience gained in conducting the 1928 Homecoming. The present policy of the officers of the Alumni Association call for concen- tration upon the social activities in order that the membership may be increased enough to make possible the undertaking of some activities having more lasting benefits. Too much credit cannot be given to the association's first president, John Lillie, whose untiring efforts and high hopes are largely responsible for the suc- cess of Chico State's irst Homecoming Day. -..ggi 50 Eg..-
