FOREWORD ND now this slippered ease before the hearth- - how barren and proiitless it seemed. I rose from my deep chair and moved restlessly to the window. The ships and the gulls were sailing down the Hudson and out to seag and I envied every sailor that would wave farewell to the sky-line of New York, and turn his salt-stung face to some strange enchanted land be- yond the far horizon. Suddenly I became bored and impatient with everything I had with people, bored and was: bored with knowledge. sionately alive, and my imagination fearlessly far-reaching. And instead, I felt I was sinking into a slough of banality. Adventure! Adventure! That was the escapeg that was the remedy. I knew there was no turn- ing back once one had broken from the nest of colorless security, and spread one's own young wings, and visited the tall strange tree-tops across the valley that had always been beckoning. Why wait-to embark? Below my window lies the portg the vessel puffs her sailg there gloom the dark I realized I didn't broad seas. Come - come - my friends, want knowledge. I only wanted my senses to be pas- ll 'Tis not too late to seek a newer world. The sounding furrows: for my purpose holds Push off, and sitting well in order smite To sail beyond the sunset . . . ,till I die . . . if To strive-to seek-to find-and not to yield.

FZ! ,f af Mr IW EDITORIAL DVENTURE and Exploration have undoubtedly ix, been the greatest factors in the development of world civilization to the degree We now enjoy it. Through adventure and exploration, the scientist, the artist, and the geographical explorer have formed a basis for the expansion of science, culture, and longitudinal boundaries. For this reason, and because to the average student his high school career is a marvelous adventure, we have chosen for the theme of our 1932 El Aviador Adventure and Exploration. In this issue we have endeavored to picture what part adventure and exploration play in our school life at Excelsior. To the majority of us our high school careers have been glorious adventures-the period during which We viewed and began to adjust ourselves for a new code of existence. Although the Way was ofttimes perilous and rough, we have been able to reach our goals through the invaluable guidance the members of our faculty offered us. Through outside curriculum we have also had op- portunities for thrilling exploration into the realms of music, sports, art, and drama. If We have taken advantage of our faculty's guid- ance :ind have heeded the opportunities for exploration, we have had a worthwhile adventure.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES ll O a worthy and indispensable group of men, about Whom heretofore little has been said, We Want to express a small part of our appreciation for the many opportunities and advantages they have given the high school students of this district. These five men work untiringly and With- out compensation to provide an educational institution of the highest standing. To them We owe our splendid school business. The Board of Trustees has made Excelsior one of California's finest high schools. Here We wish to a tribute to one, Who, for manv ears vave whole-heartedlv of his P Y .. Y o . time and effort to obtain the best in school structures, equipment, teachers, and Who, at all times, Worked unceasinglv for the Welfare of the students, Mr. C. R. Gahr.

Second Sernestcl' STUDENT GGVERNMENT INCE 1924, the students ot Excelsior have successfully developed a system of student government. The Constitution which was First adopted, gave only limited powers to those OHSICCYS who carried on the governmental work. Later the Constitution was made more liberal and today each semester president, vice-president, secretary, and sergeant-at-arms are elected by the students. A treasurer, is appoint- ed by the head of the commercial department. These officers carry on the duties of the student body, take charge of the assem- blies, check the student body funds, and maintain a student court. To insure order and obedience, the merit system has been employed. At the beginning of each semester every student receives one hundred merits. For any offense committed by him he receives a blue slip. This slip may be issued by either a teacher or by a student cop. He is then brought before student judges, and is given an oppor- tunity to state his case. If he is found guilty, a certain number of demirits are de- ducted from his merit record. This system has been very effective in keeping good behavior among the students. The court operates under the direction of the chief justice who works in con- junction with a corps of police officers appointed each semester by the dean of boys.

Sccretczry Treasurer WINTER CLASS OFFICERS CLASS HISTORY NTERING Excelsior in February, 1928, with 26 members ,all graduates of , Washington Grammar School, Bellflower, the Winter Class of 1932 was this school's initial mid-year group. Since they were pioneers in the winter class innovation, the class faced difficul- ties greater than usual. However they were fortunate in choosing two line advisers, Miss Elizabeth Hughes and Mrs. Madeline Thomas, who helped them during their first three and one half years. In scholarship, four of the members, Edwin Kelly, Arthur Brayfield, George Sakoda and Claude Haney, distinguished themselves as Honor students. Haney received a gold pin, the school's highest scholarship award. As for athletics. eleven of the boys won letters in some branch of sport, five in Varsity competition. Participating in the National Oratorical contest, three members, Arthur Bray- field, Burrell Harrell, and Claude Haney, were outstanding. Class members were also prominent in dramatic productions. In their last semester in school, two members of this small but progressive class, Claude Haney and Edwin Kelly, held important offices, those of Chief Iustice and Chief of Police, respectively. Misses Mulcahy and Watkins aided as class advisers during the winter class's final semester and were valuable in preparing plans for the first mid-year gradua- tion.

C c'crctqQv Treaszzrcr S MME F IC CLASS HISTORY it S one of the largest units ever to enter Excelsior, the class of '52 began its eventful career in the fall of 1928. During the following four years under the colors of red and white this group was well represented in every activity pre- sented, and members of the class of '32 have planned, organized, and executed many new projects. During its initial year Ben Hathcock was chosen to lead the class. When Soph- omores, Kaemper Steinman led, and the class won many victories in interclass activities. As Iuniors, this group enjoyed many successes with Archie Mills as pres- ident. Finally in the spring of 1932, with Raymond Luttrell as chief executive, this class under their red and white banner marched with only major successes, and grad- uated on Iune ninth, bearing the distinction of being the only Olympic class to graduate from Excelsior. As seniors the members of the class of '32 successfully presented The Goose Hangs Highv, capably managed the affairs of school during Senior Day, sponsored a winter picnic at Lake Arrowhead, filled the executive positions of the Student Body, and took an active part in winning many athletic victories for Excelsior, Members of the class feel that much of their success was due to the efforts of their advisers, Miss Clara Clarke, who served during the first two years, Miss Wilda Kagarise, and Miss Magdalene Slette.

This committee attended to the registration of alumni and acted as guides through the new English and study hall building, which had just been completed. Miss Baker was in charge of this committee and directed its work. Luncheon was served in the cafeteria to those who had made reservations. A program was prepared by the students and presented Lo the alumni in the auditorium at two o'clock in the afternoon. Immediately following this program everyone re- ported to the football field to witness the last game of the season with Puente. The Alumni Association meets every year and elects officers. It also entertains the Seniors at a semi-formal dance in the gymnasium near the end of school. This year a somewhat different plan was carried out in entertaining the seniors. A program consisting largely of professional entertainers was presented in the audi- torium at eight o'clock, and this was followed by a dance in the gymnasium in which the Arabian motive was used.

Miss Wilda Kagarise, musical instructor. supervised the production and directed all the choral work. Miss Elva Brown coached and directed the dialogue. According to the story, in the year 1860, a band Of bold, bad men roamed the British waters plundering all and everything that entered their path except orphans fthey could not bear to harm Orphansj. Business became especially poor, for it seemed that all their captives turned out to be Orphans. Among their number is a youth, Fredrick by name, who through a mistake on the part of his nurse, Ruth, was apprenticed to a pirate band instead of to a pilot, which was the last wish of his father. As Fredrick has reached his twenty-first birthday he is free to choose his own life work, and he has decided to renounce piracy forever and undertake a more honorable Occupation. Ruth, his old nurse, begs to go with him, and the plans are about completed for their union when Major General Stanley appears with his beautiful daughters and Fredric immediately falls in love with Mabel, the youngest daughter. The rest of the girls, fearful Of the pirates, are about to leave when the pirates return, seize them and decide to marry them. However, the Major General pleads that he is an orphan and these girls are the Hsole remaining props of his old age. The pirates are tender hearted and 'Knot altogether void of feelinggw so the daughters are returned to the Major General. .-. Fredrick decides that it is his duty to make War On the pirates and enlists the aid of the police for the purpose. Suddenly the pirate king accompanied by Ruth enters and tells Fredrick that since his birthday is On the 29th of February, he has not yet reached his twenty-Hrst birthday and is still lawfully apprenticed to the Pirates. After some stirring times on the high seas, each of the pirates Weds one of the major-general's charming daughters and reforms, and the PIRATES OF PEN- ZANCE become a myth.

Suddenly, I trip- ped and sprawled face downward, hands and feet outspread. In less than l a minute they were at my side. It seemed to me there were dozens of them-sweating, jabbering Arabs. I-Ieads bound in turbans, bodies clothed in huge capes and trousers, to me they seemed part of another world. Dusky, unshaven faces, set off by evil eyes, they seemed to leer at me. I lay where I had fallen, unable to rise. Suddenly I was picked up by a pair of husky arms, and found myself gazing into the face of a young man. Although tan- ned by the sun, I could easily see that he was not an Arab. I gave him an agonized look, but received in received in return only a stony stare. My heart sank as sud- denly as it had risen, I was carried to a camel, placed on its back, in front of the young man, and we were off-otl to a place unknown to me. For hours we had been traveling. My lips were patched and cracked, my face sand bitten, and my back almost broken. But these men of the desert were tireless as well as cruel, and continued to press onward, paying no heed to my entreaties. Despite my misery, tiredness finally conquered, and I fell asleep. When I awoke, the walls of a tent blocked my vision. As I started to arise, the tent flaps parted, and the young man, whom I was later to know as Aba-zaba, walked in. VVithout saying a word, he motioned me to the door. When I walked through that door. although I did not realize it, I said good-bye to the Cl'Z!l.Zl.ZL'62' world. I have lost track of the days and years-one is exactly like another. I am Queen Aba-zabaf' Ah, but you say that my story is not clear, the mystery is not explained. But, my friends, that is life-one mystery after another. Besides, the life of an Arab Queen is a busy, though often dull, one, and I must go-go to my Arab subjects.

CONNIES WAGER ' HE misqueride d ince opening the Winter Sports Carnival at Villars, Switzer- L .T L 1 b A c land, was in full sway. Bright colored costumes, black masks, low lights and soft music, broken by the bursts of hilarity which prevailed throughout the crowd, made the picture complete. A young couple had just appeared in the entrance. They were greeted with the usual amount of enthusiasm, considering that each person was a mystery to the other. However, following them, a mysterious little elfin figure with blond curls slipped in almost unnoticed. Terry Middleton, who had just yielded a waltz with his partner to another gentleman, spied the little figure smiling at him mischievously. So he decided to ask her for a dance. She danced as gracefully and spritely as her costume predicted. What was the meaning of that smile I saw on your face?H he asked laughingly. Wouldn't you like to know though? was all she had time to answer as an- other young gentleman cut in on them. Through the course of the evening he had several dances with her. His delight increased with each one. When Terry returned to his rather sophisticated partner, he decided he would like to meet this girl in real life. This thought led him to wondering what her name was. At the close of his last encounter with her she had whispered, 'STO see all is not to know allf, and had disappeared from sight for the remainder of the evening. After the dance the next morning Terry was on his skis rejuvenating himself in the crisp Alpine air. He realized as he glided over the snow, that if he intended to compete in the skiing contest next week, he would have to keep in strict train- ing. His thoughts were interrupted as he heard clearly, Oh darn! and he came upon a girl trying vainly to keep standing. As he came in view, she fell again into the snow with an ejaculation of pain. Terry realized suddenly that she must have sprained her ankle. 'ACan I do anything for you? he asked politely, as she sat looking up at him. A'Oh no, I'm sitting here for my health, she returned. Terry realized that he had asked a rather foolish question. After he helped her up, she said, '4Oh I'm all right. Now I can stand perfectly, but the look of pain that crossed her face belied her words. So he continued to aid her until, with much difiiculty, they reached the hotel. During the course of their procedure, he realized that he had heard her voice somewhere before. It suddenly dawned upon him that it was the voice of the elfin figure of the night before. As they came up the steps of the hotel, the girl he had taken to the dance the previous night at the request of a friend who had been detained, greeted them by saying, Connie Seymour, where have you been? Mother is very anxious about vou. S eventy-:ix f gzivfal-gg LT v'j .au uni E , n .'11Qggs95fil' W rl ?5?':aae1'f ' . . So'Connie is her name , thought Terry as he looked down at the pouting, yet rather sweet little face. 'LI couldn't help itil, Connie was answering, 'LI fell and sprained my ankle and would have been sitting there yet if this modern Lancelot hadnit come along and helped me at precisely the right moment . She finished this little speech with a look of gratitude in Terry's direction. After thanking him for his kindness, she invited him to come to tea the foll- owing day in order to meet her mother. :Tm sure Gladys would enioy it too , she added, looking toward the disapprov- ing figure of her sister. Terry, between practicing on his skis, and attending teas that Connie's mother and sister always seemed to prevail upon him, was quite rushed for time. Even so he was never to busy to try to grasp a moment with the elusive Connie, a feat which was almost impossible, as there were others who had the same idea. The day had finally arrived for the skiing contests. Terry Middleton, as he was glancing through the throng of winter sports enthusiasts, noticed a little figure in red. with blond curls. He knew immediately that it was Connie. He was unable to speak to her now, as it was almost time for him to take his jump. As the staunch figure landed upright and continued to the end of the course, a cry arose from the crowd to announce this last contestant as winner. The throng closed in about the figure which proved to be Terryis. But he, eagerly watching for a litle Hgure in red that was nowhere to be seen, hardly noticed the token of vic- tory presented to him. g'Well, so she didn't care iF I did win , thought Terry as he walked rather de- jectedly towards his cabin, while the crowd was slowly dispersing. S'Oh, there you aren, broke in upon the stillness. He turned to see Connie in the act of running towards him. I told them we would win , she was saying repeatedly. 'LWhat do you mean we'd win ? he asked rather bewildered. Well, itys this way she was saying laughingly. 'LOne day when a group of us were sitting around the fire in the hotel, the subject of a noted ski jumper was brought up. We wondered whether we could win against the great German skier who had been winning so many contests of late. This led finally as to whether we would meet him or not. I said promptly that I was sure that I would . The crowd immediately said, uYes, probably by making all the advances and introducing yourself, you will . I said, All right, I'll bet I can meet him within the first week without making advances myself or even trying to be introduced. I'll bet anyone ten dollars that he'll win the contest . So you see? she asked. s j U Yes I seen, he answered, and you've won something else you werent trying for 'I he said as he looked into her eyes and led her away from the eyes of the ever curious throng!

X I-Iave you ever spent hours and hours striving vainly to build up some trivial idea-to make it of worth to the adoring public? Well, I haveg and let me tell you it's no easy matter. Mr. Teacher, or Miss This, or Mrs. That walks up 'to you, and says, g'Oh, I have a very nice compliment for you. And you stand there waiting with great anticipation because-now you,re not vain-but, well, a compliments a compliment, you know. What is it? You inquire expectantly. 'KWell, encouragingly, I hear you can write very good prose, now- Who, me? You interrupt with bitter disappointment evident in your voice. I never wrote any prose in my lifef' And then you recall that maybe you have written a couple of essays or something, but, that was only-. Well, continues the voice of the bargainer, 'LNOW we know you are very capable of this or we wouldnlt ask you.

You're so dependablefl Now after you've said you'Il tryq just what are you going to write? Prose, Prose, Prose, you get so you detest the sound of the word. Short stories are goodg that is they are if they're written correctly. But, there it is again. You have to have a setting and a plot and characters and scenery and all of that. Ah, I have it, a short story it will be! A story of love and romance. The setting in Venice-gondolas, moonlight, and music. A handsome young man makes love to a lovely brunette as they glide slowly along the placid waters of Vene- tian canals. A gondolier sings softly as he pushes his gondola slowly onward. Beauti- ful that thoughtq in fact, an ideal setting, but no plot. Alas, you survey your room, stacked with books, strewn with rejected papers. Phooeyl You finally realize the futility of it all and decide that you weren't to be a short story writer anyway. You can always rely upon the essay. You have such a variety of subjects from which to choose. Upon Enlarging the Vocabulary would certainly be appro- priateg still you don't like to poke fun at yourself. You find a subjectg you writeg you erase, you get Webster and a number of encyclopedias, you waste paper! you use pencil after pencil-and ah! It's finished. You go over it, and try to give it 'gthat polished appearance. No luck, your essay could never be made into a masterpiece. Seventy-eiglzt s 1.. f llll I EJ 5 1-A-'Q'J43':: , .-4.1j . via ggflw ' Y .

Eugenia Cravinger, Hugh Yost BOYS' ATHLETICS URING recent years we have observed one most unfortunate trend in the ll, public attitude towards sports generally, which is the tendency to measure athletic excellance in terms of victories won. Excelsior has no reason to offer apolo- gies for its record in the scoring column, but we may point to other elements which are even more important than victories. The primary aims exercise for the largest participant, training in of good sportsmanship more than anyone else of a high school athletic program should include healthful possible number of students, practice in teamwork for every the habits of self control and fair play, and the development on the part of the players and spectators alike. The coaches are responsible for carrying out these aims. How well our coaches have succeeded in the first of these aims is shown by the large number of candidates who have been coming out in each of the sports. The value of their training in teamwork, in sportsmanship, in discipline, is hard to meas- ure, but it certainly compares well even with the benefits they have received in the regular school work. The school spirit at Excelsior, as shown by the attitude of our teams and our rooters alike, is something of which we may be proud. We wish to thank our coaches for their part in building and maintaining these ideals of fair play and good sportsmanship, as well as for their able coaching of the teams in the respective sports. Eighty-one wr ,aft tcm A ii C VARSH1fFOOTBALL 4 Football is probably the best loved of all the high school sports. For the last few years the varsity squad has been trafned by Mr. Robert Ashton who has turned out some line teams. Thirty-five men reported for varsity football practice the first week of school.

VARSITY BASKETBALL XCELSIOR had a very bright outlook with a great number of experienced men returning from last year's varsity and HB squads. Our First league game was lost in an overtime period, 35-54 to El Monte. Montebello and Downey were defeated the two following weeks, but in our fourth game Puente proved too much for us, the Indians piled up 32 points to the Pilots' 27. Excelsior ended the season without the February graduates, but with a 29 to 26 victory over Citrus. .. Iunior Hurley, Claude Haney, Bud Essert and Burrell Harrel could always be counted on to come through, Iunior with his side and bank shots, Claude with his team work and set ups, Bud with deception, and Burrell with long shots. George La Form, Art Brayheld, Captain Archie Mills, and Gene Miyakavva were the men who guarded the Pilot goal. George was known for his team work and his excellent defensive work. Claude Haney, Art Brayheld, and Burrell Harrel graduated in the mid winter class and so were unable to play in the last game.

As a result of good coaching and the line work of Captain Don Dennis, Owens Wilmoth, and Dwight Wells, Excelsior's Hs gave a good account of themselves. The team was not pulling together for the First two games, but when they met at Downey, they woke up. For the rest of the season they were one of the snappiest teams in the league. With the returning lettermen and the 'lC,s'l, who will be uB's next year, Excel- sior can look Qorward to one of the best HB teams in the league.

I. Armstrong. With the assistance of Mr. H. O. Van Petten in the held events, he has built up three fine track teams. To Mr. Hugh Yost is due much credit for the efficient handl- ing of the track records. Douglas and Champlin scored most of the points for the Pilots. Douglas heaved the shot and tossed the discus, and Champlin ran the mile. Champlin took the day at El Monte by running the mile in 4:46.8, shattering the long standing record held by El Monte. They both represented the San Gabriel Valley League in the Tri- County meet. Champlin took a first place and Douglas took a second and both received invitations to the Chaffee junior College Meet which was held April 16. These two boys also competed in the Orange Relay Carnival at Anaheim. April 23. f . Q B TRACK Coach Armstrong's niiddleweights were more successful than either the Varsity or the lightweight teams. The Bfs journeyed to El Monte to the initial meet of the season between El Wnte, Downey, Montebello, and Excelsior. The boys came home with second prize. 1 I he second meet was at Puente, a tri-school affair between Excelsior, Montebello, and uente. The middleweights again took second place, missing first by a scant three-fourths of a point, the scoring being: Montebello 4Q1A, Excelsior 4815. The last meet was the league finals at El Monte. This was the most important contest of the season and the B's came out with third place. It was at this time that Sunao Kanemitsu, the Pilot star, broke two league records that were held by Ota, a former Excelsiorite. Vincent Goodwin made a new school record for the 1320 yard run and placed second in the league. C TRACK The C track squad started off this year by taking a third place in the first league meet of the season held at El Monte between Downey, Montebello, El Monte and Excelsior. ln the league meet at El Monte the C's were handicapped because of the small squad representing Excelsior, and scored five points to place last in the final standing. Two boys succeeded in making new school records this year. Milton Cook ran the 660 yard run in one minute thirty-eight seconds, and Roger Carpenter raised the pole vault mark for his division to 9 feet l inch.

Coach Bob Ashton was very agreeably surprised to see a large number of new men turn out. Captain Oak McEwen anal Serge Mack were the veterans around whom the new team was organized. Ben Hathcock of the Varsity team three years ago again caught behind the bat. Lewis Cook has been one of the outstanding batters of the season and has done wonderful work in the outfield. Carlos Evans, Edwin Steik, Dick Hathcock, and Walter deBuxton have done exceptionally well in the infield. while George La Form and Norman Rought have toiled nobly on the mound. Each year an Unknown Donoras Trophy is given to the boy who obtains the highest batting average and earns a varsity letter. This year 4'Oak McEwen won the trophy with an average of 409. Serge Mack had a very good average and gave Capt. Oak McEwen plenty of competition. The schedule of games was as follows: Excelsior 8 El Monte 10 K' 7 Puente 4 ' 4 Citrus 8 S Montebello O 7 Downey 5 TENNIS Five experienced men of last year's tennis squad along with the new material added this year, gave Excelsior an outstanding tennis team. Five matches were played, and the team came out with high second place. Raymond Luttrell and Bud Essert played first doubles and lost only one match. Other outstanding men of the team were Lawrence Geiselman, who played larst singles, and Travis Stevens, who played a very consistent game throughout the seas- on. Gordon Greening and Kaemper Steinman played well at second doubles. The team was coached by Mr. Langdon, and was managed by Sterling Ripple.

GIRLS' ATHLETICS vice to the girls of Excelsior by creating a spirit of cooperation, loyalty and fellowship among them. Under the direc- tion of Miss Lucille Payne, the basketball, hockey and baseball teams made a fine showing in interscholastic and class en- i deavors this season. Miss Lissa Baker, phy- sical education instructor coached winning teams in volleyball and tennis. The honorary title of all around girl athlete of l932l' was awarded to Alverne Bingham, who bears the record of having made the first stringv in every sport she has entered during her four years. She has earned her letter in baseball, bas- ketball, hockey and track. At present she LUCILLE PAYNE LISSA BAKER is manager of girls' athletics. Girls' athletics at Excelsior is run on an entirely different basis from boys' ath- letics. The girls do not compete in regular inter-scholastic leagues, but the coaches of each school may arrange games for their teams with any of the surrounding schools. Each year the different schools arrange for play days at which the girls meet in friendly competition with the teams of the visiting schools. On October 27, 1931, Excelsior was host at a play day festival and entertained Covina, Downey, Citrus, and Montebello. During the day basketball, hockey, base- ball, and tennis games were played. Luncheon was served the guests in the cafeteria and a program was presented in the gym. During the basketball season the Pilot teams met Montebello, Downey, and Citrus, scoring many wins. The junior girls were victors in the interclass basketball tourney. ln hockey the girls won exciting victories over Covina and Citrus. Their baseball opponents were teams from Woodrow Wilson, Compton, Whittier, Downey, South Gate, and Huntington Park, and these teams suffered many losses at the hands of the Pilots. Miss Bakers tennis groups met Whittier for several encounters. N in ery - ji ue IRLS' athletics renders a real ser- X .1 I ,4 K , 4-QQ: 'iglagwu ' '- . -, . BIG Ev VVINNERS 14V. Thomas 4-C.

CURTIS FAMED HUNTRESS WINS MACARONI NOTED SCIENTIST FACES BIGAMY ENCOUNTER NEARS END COMPLAINT After eating fifty pounds of macaroni and defeating his last surviving rival, Mr. Max Prettyman was acclaim- ed the world's champion macaroni eater. Mr. Pretty- man, in a statement to the press, said his entire success was due to the new type of macaroni, which besides be- ing hollow, is perforated up and down the sides. These holes increase the speed of the suction and also keep the macaroni from slipping. This is the latest invention of Mr. Arthur Osinga, fam- ous bicycle tire manufact- urer. Among the contestants were several very prominent people. One of these was Mlle.

Ma- dam Gardner sang her last song at 10 p.m. last evening. The Foot-n-Kelly opera house, where she has been appearing, is owned by Jeanne Foote and Mr. Ed Kelly, who have been mar- ried and divorced seven times. It was rumored that Ma- dam Gardner was grieving over the death of her fian- cee, Stanley Cleveland, and her former husband, Tru- mand Cleveland. The pres- ent Mrs. Trumand Cleveland is the former Wanda Gal- lamore, who has been Ma- dam Gardner's pianist. Ma- dam Gardner carried the last note so high that her jugular vein burst open. Professor Robert Curtis, president of the American Scientific Organization, is about to swat the pail , says Lenore Terrell, known all over the world as the greatest doctor of history. Professor Curtis is the sole survivor of the three men who understood the Einstein theory. The profes- sor is said to be on the verge of death from the shock he received when Hans Rueck- heim, one of the professor's closest friends, told him he was beginning to understand the Einstein theory. The professor has been working with Hans for the past ten years trying to help him grasp the theory. The President of the United States, Howard Ru- pard, sent his regrets to Professor Curtis's wife. formerly Miss Helen Starr. The profess0r's secretary. Miss Keith Sawyer, was so taken up with Hans Reuck- heim when he declared he was beginning to see the light, that she proposed to him and he accepted.

Jayne Parrish, diminutive aerialist in the famous Pe- droncelli Inter-Planet Cir- cus, ate the first four cour- ses with gusto, but failed to make any headway on the fifth. due to the change in the iiavoring. The deciding judge was Miss Genevieve R e a d y, known the country over for her sympathetic question and answer television pro- gram, Love Lessons. Miss Ready said that she believed this contest to be the great- est test of human capacity ever held. Une !ZZl770l7'f'd and eight MISS CLAIPF1 TRAVIS EXONERATED Declaring she knows noth- ing of the case. Miss Claire Travis. follies girl, was ex- onerated of any part in the disappearance of Miss Eva- lena Wilcox, well-known rooming house owner, who vanished last Saturday even- ing. Miss Travis, who had lived for some time in Miss Wil- cox's rooming house, 1225 Pioneer Boulevard, Artesia, California, was arrested soon after her landlady's disappearance. It was re- ported that she had often threatened Miss Wilcox's life when the latter attemp- ted to collect her rent, which was about eight months overdue. Ora Williams, attorney I Mlss1oNARlEs REPORT CONQUEST SUCCESSFUL Into the deeD 511112165 Of Africa have Dlllflged elght fearless missionaries, bent on the mission of preVeI1'C1OI1 of pink tooth brush among the natives. The native den- tists were balfled by the mysterious m al a d Y, and scores have died because they were unable to receive nourishment. The missionary eXD9diti0Y1 set out in their small sub- marine February 28th. Ra- mona Watkins, who has been making a tour lecturing to the natives on The Folly of Dancing in Airplane Sa- loons, reported that they received it with a great deal of enthusiasm. Donald Dennis. writing to the Guglielmana Times, nar- rated a thrilling experience that he and six others had with the natives. They came in contact with a savage tribe and before they could collect their wits they were c om pl e t el y surrounded. They were very much fright- ened as they looked around at the many ugly painted faces. As the chieftain was advancing toward Archie Mills. Leone Laporte had an inspiration. She stepped for- ward and with a quiver in her voice said, Touch not yon gray head. The chief- tain stopped dead in his tracks, turned around and Hed. Immediately his tribe followed. To Miss Laporte the mis- sionaries owe their lives. Other members of the group were Margaret Wilson, Du- ane Turner, Johnny Uhlman and Barbara White. As the natives have found the new American dance steps diffi- cult to master, Mr. Turner and Mr. Uhlman have been teaching them. It is expect- ed that several will join the follies soon. for Miss Travis, says that there is absolutely no foun- dation for the accusation, that Miss Travis has noth- mg- against Miss Wilcox. The Dolice are now working on new clues. :ig , JM, f .nr n -'-rg. 1:5 -emu W- 'x-,1 :Us -9::11!1'f 1 Y' . I - PREMIERE SHOWING OF SENSATIONAL FILM Blase Hollywood received an unexpected thrill last night at the premier show- ing of Kangaroo Katie from Kalamagoon, M.B.M.'s sensational film of gangster- dom. Lovely Beatrice Long- shore, renowned stage and screen star, soared to new dramatic heights with her superb portrayal of Lady Kathryn, the bootblack's daughter. Serge Mack, the leading Swedish cinema lover, won for himself new laurels as Miss Longshore's leading man. The exotic beauty of Donna Lee, well known for her dynamic portrayal of the American telephone op- erator. adds greatly to the production. The scenario was adopted from Clement Maitrejean's immortal novel by the same name, Maiterjean wrote this novel as a sequel to Shake- speare's Romeo and Juliet . Kangaroo Katie from Kalamagoou as an M.B.M. production, owes much of its success to the splendid' coaching of Carrol Marty, who directed the production. TERMITE AUTHORITY VISITS CITY f'I'm sure I'm going to en- joy my iirst visit here in your beautiful city of Los Angeles very muchg so an- nounced Professor Claude Haney, eminent authority on Bacteriology and Termites, as he greeted the officials upon his arrival at the Mo- tor Transit Depot this morn- ing.

EXPLORERS FIND NOVEL ANIMAL Orin Hoehman and Jun- ior Hurley, famous explor- ers of M31'S, today found an animal which they claim has never been seen before. This animal, which jumped on Mr. Hoehn1an's shoulder as he walked with Mr. Hurley beneath a tree, playfully pulled his ear and nose and kept saying, How funny! The startled Mr. Hoehman looked up and beheld the strange animal. He has described it as be- ing able to change its color from blue to red, and vice versa. On each foot are nine toes. The tail is extremely bushy, the diameter being eight inches. The animal it- self stands about six inches. Upon trying to remove it from his shoulder, it clung tightly and said, No, this is just fine. Mr. Hurley said it talks fluently five dif- ferent languages. Accompanying the fam- ous explorers are Marguer- ite George, Travis Stevens, Harold Irvin, George La Form, Pearl Weaver, Juan- ita McMillan, and Louise Harper. The women have been studying the art of snake charming with a 20- foot python, while the men have been investigating why monkeys throw cocoanuts. Mayor Garfield stated that he felt the Professor had done the city an honor by his visit. During his visit the Pro- fessor is to investigate the crumbling of the tower of the city hall. While he is in the city, Count Arthur Brayfield, the international- ly known sculptor is plan- ning to fashion a marble bust of Haney which will be placed in a niche in the new Ninth Street tunnel.

Never before has so tremendous an undertaking in educational lines been planned. Mr. Alverez states that he considers Wilson Spanks, the well-known po- litical boss of the newly formed South Sea Island Union, the best suited man for the position of Superin- tendent of the Congo Schools. Edna Kelly, the famous operatic soprano, told news- paper men that she would sponsor a benefit perform- ance to promote interest in the undertaking and to raise a small sum of the enormous amount of capital needed. The popular radio crooner, Alverne Bingham, was made chairman of the Radio artists' committee, which also plans to stage severalpersonalappearances. the proceeds of which will be given to the Alverez Com- mission.

Dot Pinching: If the corporation doesn't object, I'd prefer to pay full fare and keep my statistics. Vivien Heinrich was endorsing her pay check at the bank window. You have forgotten the 4H', the banker explained. Whereupon Miss Heinrich took her check and said, 'gAch, so I haf. and wrote hurriedly: k'Age seventeen. Eleanore had a beau. She also had a small brother of the proverbially troublesmoe age of thirteen. One day at the dinner table they were teasing Eleanor about Leonard -that was her beauls name. Eleanore delcared that she didnit like him one bit and said that he had a soft spot in his head. The next evening Mr. Lindstrom came to call on Miss Bridge. They were both in the parlor. Bobbie, her brother, slipped into the room, climbed upon the sofa beside Mr. Lindstrom, and began very diligent- ly to examine his head. He felt all over it and looked puzzled. gKWhy. Bobbie, what are you examining my head for? exclaimed Leonard. 'iAre you studying phrenology? '4No,,' said the boy, sister Eleanore says you have a soft spot on your head somewhere and I was just trying to find it. Well, they made it up some how and Mr. Lindstrom began to call again, evident- ly with better results. For one rainy day the father of the household was looking in the hall for his umbrella. when Mr. Bridge asked, Where is my umbrella? I believe somebody has carried it oi Bobbie up and said, HEleanore's beau stole it. Eleanor said, Bobbie, how dare you say such a thing about Leonard. I know he did, replied Bobbie, because he was telling you good night at the hat rack last night, and I heard him say as plain as could be 'I'm going to steal just one.'

Oh, no, I'm not, gushed the fair Miss Carpenter with a vision of a date Hoating before her eyes. Then you'd better correct your back themes and hand them in, replied Mr. Goble. A certain young iunior wrote the following letter to a prominent business firm, ordering a razor: 'kDear Sirs,-Please find enclosed fifty cents for one of your razors as advertised And oblige, , Henry Meeterf' P. S. I forgot to enclose the fifty cents, but no doubt a firm of your high standing will send the razor anywayfl The firm addressed received the letter and replied as follows: Dear Sir: Your most valued order received the other day and will say in reply that we are sending the razor as per request, and hope it will prove satisfactory. P. S. VVe forgot to enclose the razor but no doubt a man with your cheek will have no need of it. Winston Murphy stopped at the grocery counter and took out the list Louise had given him.

Tan,t clet anysing else, he said, toddling toward the meat department to look for teensey wienies and a leg of lambiliins. Hans Rueckheim, who graduated from Excelsior in '32, became a hard boiled sea captain. He knocked Orin Hoehman, one of the sailors, overboard. Help! Helpl' yelled Orin, I can't swim, drop me a line!
