This site is now graced by a group of four- teen buildings. The group, as originally constructed, was thought to be sufficient to house the Fullerton Union High School for at least twenty years. But in 1918 the school was so crowded that it was im- perative that a new manual arts building be built in order that the old building might be used for class room purposes. This year an- other, called the domestic science and art building, has been erected. It is the last word in school architecture. Mr. J. C. Beswick, State Supervisor of Industrial Education, says The Fullerton Union High School has, to my mind, the finest art building in the State of Cali- fornia and has possibilities of offering courses in art that will bring a wonderful reputation in these lines. The Fullerton Junior College was established, in connection M ' ith the High School, in 1913. This made it possible for a student in our district not only to secure a high school education, but to do the first two years of college work here. The smaller classes and closer per- sonal relationship with instructors has enabled our Junior College to maintain a standard of scholarship of which we are justly proud. The universities of the State have assured us that students taking two years of work in our Junior College enter their Junior year much stronger than those who have taken work in the necessarily large classes of the university. Recently a plan for the future building development of the High School plant was evolved, and future building will follow it closely. It will eventually give us a group of buidings of Spanish architectural type connected by covered arcades. Ample provision will be made for all departments of the school. We can say with truth, even now, that we have the finest rural high school plant in America.

A wall may be made of stones, bricks, or boards. But the kind I speak of is an imaginary one. It is the all-enveloping wall of school spirit. Those who remain without this wall are likely to find it a bar- I ' ier to progress rather tlian a protecting bulwark. Suddenly it looms up before their eyes like a ship out of a deep fog, and they are made to realize that they are on the outside. Fortunately, there is always a gate in this wall, but it can be opened only by those on the outside who desire admittance. Sometimes it happens that all the boys or all the girls are witliout the surrounding wall. Then indeed is the defense of the school weakened. Those on the inside of the wall are enabled through its strength and protection to win every race and overcome all obstacles. In union there is strength, and happy indeed is that school whose forti- fication is unified school spirit. Our hope for Fullerton is that its school spirit may never be weakened to the slightest extent, but that, if possible, it may even be strengthened as the years go by. In our surrounding wall there must never be a break. United in spirit, we are the greater P. U. H. S. oltiattkB The staff of the 1921 Annual Pleiades wishes to take this oppor- tunity to thank all those who through their co-operation and support have made this publication possible. Mr. Plummer, as principal of the High School, has given us much useful coimsel. Mr. Giles, of the firm of Giles and Jolly, has been very helpful in rendering us many favors, and giving us suggestions in connection with the work. Mr. Betzsold has done highly commendable work in furnishing us our pictures. His work has been not only prompt, but has also been very well done. The American Engraving Company has handled our engraving work, which is of such a high quality. Much credit is due their representative, Mr. Lynde, who has at all times given helpful assistance. Miss Hinkle, as supervisor of the art work, has done a great deal for the Annual. Besides directing the art work she has handled the pictures, preparing them for the engraver in a very superior way. Throughout the year she has been constantly at work. As adviser Miss Harvey has toiled shoulder to shoulder with the staff. She possesses the gift of excellent management, which means so much toward the success of a publication. Mr. Gulp has given helpful legal advice, and the typing department is to be thanked for the cheerfulness and promptness with which it has handled the material. We wish also to thank the department of dramatic art for the finan- cial aid it has given. vn UtB Mr. L. B. Steward Mr. W. J. Travers Mr. O. A. Kreighbaum Mr. F. M. Dowllng Mr. J. D.

Through all four years, as the greenest Freshmen, the proudest Sophomores, the cleverest Juniors, and the brightest Seniors, we have taken pleasure in being the est of everything — the best in studies, the best in athletics, and the cleanest and peppiest in the schoolroom and on the campus. (Ask any Senior if we ' re not !) We held picnics at the beaches and in the mountains, where we did the wildest stunts and ate great quantities of unusually luscious eats. Who of us will ever forget that time at Long Beach when we took in every amusement on the Pike a dozen times — more or less? And who can forget the snowball fights at Old Baldy? We may for- get how our fingers and ears tingled and ached from the snow and cold and how our cheeks burned after a forceful face washing, but we shall always remember the fun and good fellowship of those frolics in the snow. Toward the end of our Junior year we began to realize that the Seniors would soon be gone, leaving to us the responsibility of lead- ership in school activities, so we gave them a reception to show them how glad we were to have them go. And now — we are Seniors ! We have reached the goal of our Freshman ambitions, and now have other ambitious to replace them. We have worked — and, sometimes, blufi ' ed — our way through our courses; we have weathered stormy class meetings in the old biology lecture room, much as other Senior classes before us have done and as coming Senior classes will do. Now, like all Seniors, as the time of parting draws nearer, we look back over our high school experi- ences, and the memory is very clear and very dear to us ; and we hate to leave it all — the pleasures, the friendships, and the happy associations. But we are looking forward, too. We have our ambitions, our ideals, as all Seniors have, and like them we must pass. In saying, Farewell, dear F. U. H. S., we regret indeed that we must leave, but oh ! how glad we are to go on into the bright future with its op- portunity and promise 1 LILLIAN BATCHMAN, ' 21. eleven 3lTar?ujfU The long glad year rolls ' round once more To the joyous month of June. Commencement day is drawing nigh, And we ' ll be leaving soon. We ' re glad that we ' ve attained our goal; Our hearts rejoice ; and yet Our joy is not unmingled with A feeling of regret. The happiest years of all our lives Our high school years have been. Those years are past ; when Autumn comes, We ' ll not return again. Though we go on and leave fore ' er Our life in Fullerton High, Our loyalty to Fullerton Will never, never die. TALBOT BIELEFELDT. twelve Cecil Allen Cease Hobby: Breaking hearts. La Habra.

I was greatly pleased at the success of my former schoolmates, and the next morning I hastened to their laboratories to congratulate them. They were greatly elated over their discovery, and Watson asked if I would like to have the honor of being the first outsider to see the wonders their telescope revealed. I assented eagerly, and he led me to an adjoining room, where the instrument had been in- stalled. He motioned me to a chair in front of what was apparently a panel of frosted glass. Before this stood a cabinet, which contained numerous levers, switches, and dials. Watson seated himself before this cabinet, and turning to me, he asked, Is there anybody in particular whom you would like to see? Yes, I replied, excitedly, I should like to see what all of my former classmates are doing. He turned to the cabinet and pulled one of the levers. The room grew dark, and I sat breathless on the edge of my chair. A faint light appeared behind the glass panel. It grew steadily brighter, and presently there appeared upon the screen a scene on a busy down- town corner in New York. The traffic officer in the middle of the street was Ed Daly, who was just then trying to halt an automobile bearing the sign: VOTE FOR KNIGHT FOR MAYOR. On the corner was a millinery shop with a sign bearing the names of Eva Madsen and Susan Walker. The next scene was an assembly in the F. U. H. S. auditorium. Music instructor Wildermuth was teaching the student body a new song, with Eugenia Banks successfully holding down Miss Shep- ardson ' s place at the piano. Presently Principal Corcoran arose to present the speaker of the day, Myron West, the ex-Governor of Cal- ifornia. Then the scene commenced to shift rapidly from place to place. We passed from the home of Nathan Morse, the oil king, to George Meiser ' s ranch, then to the Elder Hotel, a popular beach resort, where Lucy Kraemer, Nita Krohn, Edith Burnett, and Florence Durkee were taking a vacation from their business in Los Angeles. In the court at Santa Ana, Harold Stabler was being tried by Judge Dressel for speeding. The scene again changed to a busy downtown street, where from the point of vantage of a soap box Harry Shipkey Avas addressing a twenty-nine large crowd on the evils of the cigarette. One of the interested on- lookers was Lillis Johnston. A fire engine came clanging down the street and stopped in front of the McLellan and Peacock Dry Goods Store, but upon investiga- tion it was found that the alarm had been a false one. In the crowd which was attracted by the arrival of the fire en- gine we saw Herman Kraft and Lloyd Scharr, both of whom were happily ( ?) married. On the uptown car we heard Imo Cratty, president of one of the foremost women ' s clubs, telling her assistant, Esther Stubbs, that Geraldine Kraemer and Mary Healey were going to Africa as mis- sionaries. In Pershing Square, before a large assemblage of such influen- tial people as Ruth Dowling, Lura Gulp, Stanley Berkey, and William Kroeger, Jack Fahs and Talbot Bielefeldt were debating on the ques- tion, Resolved, That cleaning spark plugs on Sunday should be made unlawful. From there the scene changed to the Yaeger and Goldie flying field, where Minnie Yaeger, the dare-devil aviatrix, was giving an exhibition flight for Doris Shaw, Verda Harlow, and a few other of her wealthy society friends. Suddenly on the other side of the field we heard a crash, and on looking we saw Percy Scott crawling out from the wreckage of what had once been an airplane, with which he had tried to land on a moving motor truck. Herman Kenney, of the Fullerton Daily Sun, came rushing up to interview Scott and said that possibly Editor Mildred Yorba would promote him if he made a good story of the accident. Our attention was then directed to an Arctic exploring party, headed by Boyd Welin and made up of Clem McCulloch, Herbert Klotzly, and William Sanchez. Coming back to Fullerton, we saw Shakespeare ' s Merchant of Venice being put on by the Fullerton Community Players. Frankie Mae Taylor played the part of Portia, and her maid, Nerissa, was played by Dollie Stone. Owing to the lack of male characters Shylock was played by Letty Smith. While we were sitting there enjoying the play, Dorothy Randall, the president of the Third National Bank, came in to call on Mrs. Lutschg, and we persuaded her to stay and watch the screen with us. She asked to see how Ina Sargent was coming along in the presi- dential election. Immediately the interior of an office appeared on the screen. It was a riot of confusion, with typewriters clattering and people rush- ing back and forth. Esther Ender came hurrying in and said to her typist at the first desk, whom we recognized as Beatrice Batehman: thirty She carried Southern California by an overwhelming majority, thanks to the assistance of her campaign managers, Reta Hersey and Clara Parrett. Gradually the office scene faded and changed to that of a moving picture studio. A sign on one of the buildings said, Carhart Pro- ductions, Inc. Doris Lee and Emery Marshall, the famous movie queens, were co-starring with Russell Neely in a picture adapted from Josephine Maigres ' latest novel. They were being directed by Ev- elyn Lemke and her assistant director, Ruth Ferguson. In the studio oifice Josephine Eseverri, a reporter for a moving picture magazine, was trying to get an interview with Margaret Heckman, the noted dancer. Leaving the studio, we saw Martin Clark, the world famous sur- geon, reading aloud to his head nurse, Nora Hooser, a newspaper article about Hazel Cook and Alberta Oswald, who were sailing for Europe to continue their study of music. Again the scene changed, and before us was the new school of elocution which had just been started by Frances Burkett. Judging by the appearance of his elegantly furnished office, Cecil Allen seemed to be doing well at the oil business. Next appeared the beautiful home of Loneta Shill, now an ac- complished violinist, who was entertaining a number of her friends, among whom were Lillian Batchman and Neva Holmes, two of Ful- lerton ' s most popular teachers. Watson next focused the rays of his machine on the Royer Hair- pin Factory. Le Roy Royer was sitting in his office reading Frances Shepherd ' s column in the Fullerton Sun, Helpful Hints for Troubled Hearts. Suddenly the room in which we sat was plunged into total dark- ness. After lighting a candle and inspecting the fuse box, Watson regretfully informed us that all further revelations must be post- poned until such time as the Cooper Yorba Electric Company could send out some new fuses. WILLIAM VANCE, ' 22. thirty-one Bmxar (HiuBB HtU To Whom It May Concern: We, the Senior Class of ' 21, knowing that we are soon to depart, have decided to take this opportunity, while we are still of sound health and in our right minds, of writing this, our last will and testa- ment, whereunto we have affixed our signatures this seventeenth day of June, in the year of our Lord 1921.

EMMA DUNN. thirty-seven Alice, with a big box of candy in one liand and her diary in the other, curled up in her big arm chair and began reading over the green and white letter events of her past Sophomore year. Nov. 13, 1920. The annual reception was given to the Freshmen tonight. It sure was a bear ! Nearly all the Sophomores tui-ned out. Of course we had to coach the Freshmen a great deal as to their behavior and tell them what was not proper. Our class president, Calvin Shores, gave them some good advice. They took it well for such green grasshoppers, while we sat by and nodded our heads in stately approval, and every once in a while we put in a word or two. Everything was going like greased lightning until the Juniors and Seniors offered their advice. Some of it was absolutely beyond our comprehension, and I certainly pity the Freshmen, for they must not have even heard what we failed to understand. Feb. 5, 1921. This was the greatest day in the year. The Sopho- more class went to Baldy to enjoy a picnic in the snow. It was per- fectly grand. Just snow enough to give us an appetite and a lively bunch of hands that worked so fast because they were hooked on to such powerful brains. Snowballs flew, but all in good will. Coming and going we were packed in the ears like sardines. A few Freshmen managed to struggle up the hill, two at a time, but they were quickly defeated and were forced to retreat. Some of us climbed the side of a hill just to show those poor, little, green Freshmen we, their elders, could do it. In battle our phalanx formation was irresistible. Every- thing fell before our great snowballing battle wall. Alice closed her diary with a sigh. Oh, our Sophomore class could not be beaten. We even whipped the Juniors in basketball, and as for those helpless little Freshmen, they didn ' t have a show. Our class had enough school spirit and pep. I ' ll say we did! We had good times along with our studies, and I ' 11 tell you we always had our share of names on the honor roll. Some of FuUerton ' s best football and basketball men came from the Sophomore class, and we had plenty of track and baseball men. As for debating, there was nothing to it. We had some team. I hope as Juniors we have as good teams and as jolly times. EGBERT COOKE. thirty-nine Eight years or more of upward climbing have made all of us the queer creatures they call Freshmen. For the benefit of those who do not know what is meant by Freshmen, I shall describe ourselves. In the first place, we are human beings. Some students think us only semi-human, but we certainly have our opinion of those certain students. Our way of acting may seem mighty foolisli to those same parties, but really we do our best. We also try awfully hard to hide our greenness, but it always seems to ooze out just when we don ' t want it to. Except for that and our vacant gaze we are really respectable. The 1924 class is the largest that the natives of the Fullerton Union High School have ever seen enter, and if at any of the games you wonder who those peppy rooters are, just remember that they belong to the class of ' 24. Maybe you will admit that we have good brains, at least when you learn we elected Billy Fahs for our class president; and maybe you didn ' t know that the bravest of us are going out for debating ; and maybe you didn ' t know that the Freshmen girls are all ready-made vamps. Boys, beware ! Some kind-hearted person, taking pity on us or thinking us unable to care for ourselves, appointed big sisters to look after us. Here ' s to our big sisters for their response to our feeble cry of ' ' Help ! Help ! ' ' Just think ! Part of our big sisters are Seniors, and they even gave us a party. A great deal of honor was accorded us that memorable day. We want to thank the school as a whole for the Freshman Re- ception given in our honor and extend our sympathy to the kind- hearted faculty, who have had to endure our silliness throughout the year, but who have succeeded in preparing us to become the lordly beings called Sophomores. FLORENCE CARPENTER. forty -one ifhattng Debating at Fullerton this year was far more successful from the standpoint of contests won than that of last year. We succeeded in tying Huntington Beach for second place in the Orange League, whereas last year we took last place. This year we had to begin with several experienced debaters, who formed the nucleus of the present squad. Early in the year we organized a debating club to carry on more efficiently the work in argumentation. George Knight and Virgil Shaw were chosen president and secretary respectively. Under the auspices of this club there has been a sort of debating revival, and for the first time in a number of years we stepped out of our Orange League and invaded Southern California. Next year we hope to become a mem- ber of the Southern California League, in which we shall have a bet- ter chance for Southern California debating honors. In addition to this we held a series of inter-class debates, in which the Seniors came off victors. We hope that inter-class debates will become a permanent institution at Fullerton, as they give inexperienced debaters a chance and also disclose new material. Those who figured prominently in debating this year are : Jack Fahs, Talbot Bielefeldt, George Knight, Betty Reese, Virgil Shaw, Dolly Stone, Marjorie Travers, William Fahs, Ted Shipkey, Johanna Wichers, Evelyn Bielefeldt, Florence Robison, Ed Daly, Kepler Lut- schg, and Ruth Dowling. To further the interests of debating in the years to come there was formed a permanent organization called the Forum. The object of this club is primarily to promote interest in debating, but help will also be given for forensic and other lines of literary work.

This is due to several very active forces, of course, but most immediately to our capable and persevering faculty directors, Miss Marion Helm and Mr. Askin. It makes us chuckle yet to remember how Nate Morse wheedled Dorothy Dean in the Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary, the athletic benefit play, directed bj ' Miss Helm. And Imo ! The footlights served only to heighten her charms in our eyes. We agree with the posters that the cast was indeed made up of the cream of our dramatic aspirants. The three spicy, rollicking, one-act plays, directed by Mr. Askin, were three sparkling gems. There was not one single character who did not delight us with his unsuspected degree of talent and his limit- less antics. No doubt comparisons are odious; however, there can be no ques- tion that the year ' s greatest dramatic performance was our faculty play, Disraeli, which was produced under the direction of Mr. Askin. A lovely little Japanese play, directed by Miss Helm, was given as a part of our Mothers ' Day program. Dainty maids and strong men made up the cast of Chrysanthemums. While not strictly a dramatic production, the entertainment given under the direction of Miss Stephenson for the benefit of the girls ' ath- letic activities was one of the best put on this year. Pantomime, play, music, drills, songs, and dances made up the program. Looking back, we find everything to be proud of, and from that past record we have every assurance that our Senior class play, to be given later in the year, will be an added star in our crown of glory.

STRING QUINTET, 1920-21 The String Quintet, composed of two violins, viola, cello, and piano, has held rehearsals regularly twice a week. There is nothing more beautiful than fine string music, and great credit is due to Mr. Wal- berg for holding such a high ideal before the students. The quintet has striven hard and loyally to catch the true spirit of the composi- tions rendered and has succeeded well. First Violin — Russell Neely. Cello — Ida Shrode. Second Violin— Gilbert McDermont. Viola— Ethel Evans. Piano — Harold Walberg (Director). ORCHESTRA The Fullerton High School Orchestra of the season 1920-1921 has been the largest and best in the history of the school. The orchestra ' s work is a complimentary reflection of the fine enthusiasm and high type of artistry engendered and developed by its conductor, Harold Walberg. Personnel of Orchestra First Violins— Gilbert McDermont, Etta Burnett, Alberta Roth- aermel, Gertrude Wichers, Gladys Conn, Percy Parker, Russell Neely, Venita Robb.

The advanced worli in the High School consists of two Girls ' Glee Clubs with a membership of fifty, and the Boys ' Glee Club of fifteen splendid voices. Their work has met with marked success whenever thej have appeared either at the High School or in the surrounding communities. Their clear enunciation and ease in tone production are a very notice- able feature in their work. The Junior College male quartet has been one of the most popular organizations on the campus. Its members have been in constant demand on musical programs throughout the district. The opera chosen for the combined Glee Clubs this year was the Gypsy Rover, a three-act, romantic, musical comedy by the Dodges. The presentation on the evening of February 18th was most successful and was given to the largest audience that any High School entertain- ment has had this year. The proceeds are to be used to replace our present talking machine with one more suited to our needs. An interesting feature of the music work was the exchange of operas with Santa Ana High School. Our Gypsy Rover was pre- sented in the new Santa Ana auditorium the second of March, and they gave their Sylvia here the afternoon of Ma rch 31st. Miss Wishard has raised the standard of voice work through the system of individual vocal lessons and is developing voices that have remarkable promise. The Boys ' Glee Club won third place in the Music Contest held at Pomona College the 30th of April. I|t f ©rgantzattntt Early in January there was organized under the leadership of Mr. Raitt, Pullerton ' s Hi Y Secretary, a High School Y. M. C. A. The officers elected upon that occasion were ; Tom Warren, president ; Theo- dore Corcoran, vice-president; Gilbert McDermont, secretary; and Wendell Irwin, treasurer. Since its organization three months ago the membership of the association has reached thirty, and interest in the work being done is rapidly increasing. Every two weeks the boys are given a dinner, at which time they discuss current questions of peculiar interest to young people, and also ways and means of bettering the school. Professional men are asked to address the meetings, so that the members may gain more knowledge of the vocations. The school has no organization which it feels to be any more help- ful to the students and of which it is any more proud than the Hi Y. forty-eight ■■ ■ ■H l iHH BiHI I I iB ■t- 1 J m m IW - d i • til 2Il|? (itrla ' H agup This is the fifth sueeessfiil year in the history of the Girls ' League. Its purpose, the promotion of good fellowship among the girls, has this year been adequatelj ' fulfilled under the guidance of Miss Me- Adow, faculty adviser ; Ruth Bowling, president ; Hazel Scharr, vice- president; Josephine Eseverri, secretary; and Geraldine Kraemer, treas- urer, together with the representatives from each district. The spirit of fellowship was shown early in the year ' s activities when the Big Sisters, the Senior and Junior girls, entertained their Little Sisters, the Freshman girls, at a get acquainted party in the city park. On the first Mothers ' Day the parents of Sophomore and Senior students were the guests of the League. The visitors were entertained by a splendid musical program, in which both students and faculty took part. When Christmas came, the girls, as has been the custom, sent gifts to the David and Margaret Home at La Verne and also to the Mexican children at La Habra. In this work the League was given the assist- ance of the entire student body. The second Mothers ' Day of the year was held on March 24, when the mothers of Freshman and Junior students were received. The oral expression class, under the supervision of Miss Marion Helm, presented a very pleasing Japanese play, Chrysanthemums at a special Girls ' League assembly. High Jinks, the biggest get together social event of the year for the girls, came on April Fools ' Day. The ridiculous costumes, the clever stunts, and the spirit of hilarity made the evening one long to be remembered. FRANCES BLISS— ' 22. ®1]0 Npui P? taliPH The Pleiades of 1921 began the year with an entirely new group of editors, no member of the staif having acted in such a capacity before. Under the able leadership of Mr. Hofmann the staff has enjoyed a very successful season. Mr. Hofmann has at all times exerted in- fluence to make the paper a student publication. Emery Marshall has been the editor, her staff and reporters being as follows : Mildred Yorba, news editor ; Russell Heck, managing editor ; Doris Lee, social editor ; Jack Fahs, athletic editor ; Reva Hawkins, exchange editor; Dorothy Randall, girls ' athletic editor. The reporters were Minnie Yaeger, Senior; Evelyn Bielefeldt, Junior; Katherine Steward, Sophomore ; and Geraldine Jenks, Freshman. The Junior College class in journalism has been a constant con- tributor to the success of the publication. To it belongs the credit of the proof-reading of articles and the gathering of a great deal of news. fifty-one iEl ©trruln lEaiiattnl Among the new and live-wire clubs which have sprung up this year, none is more wide awake than the Spanish Club, which is called El Cireulo Espanol. This association of the High School students of Spanish who have been successful in one year of work and of all Junior College Spanish students was organized in October. The purpose of it is to promote the natural social use of Spanish and to give the members further knowledge of the Spanish-speaking countries and their songs, games, customs, and literature. Spanish is the language used at all club meetings. The following officers were elected, all of the nomination speeches being made in Spanish : President, William Sanchez ; Vice-President, Orie Dale ; Secretary-Treasurer, Mae Vance. The faculty advisers are Miss Vertrees and Miss Anderson. Over sixty students have become members of the club. The second Tuesday night of each month finds a large group of espanoles in the club rooms, eagerly awaiting the program which has been prepared for them. An atmosphere of old Spain has been carried out by the com- mittee on decoration, Martha Hilend and Nell Housley. ®I|? Amirt ICattnt Rome grew from a single organization to a great power. Well might the words, Ad Astra per Aspera, suit her goal, which she reached through true and determined efforts. The hope of the Amici Latini is to attain the same end. It is our purpose to know ourselves better by studying Roman lives, to read Roman literature, and to appreciate its influence on English literature. The club was organized October 29, 1920, Miss Campbell and Miss Schaaf of the Latin department acting as faculty advisers. Meetings are held every three or five weeks. During the school year excellent programs were given at Christmas and Thanksgiving, which added interest to the work of the organization. The play Pyramus and Thisbe, given on St. Valentine ' s Day, proved to outsiders our ability and our appreciation of the standard we have set for ourselves. Though our membership reached fifty after the Freshviri joined us, we hope that in future years such interest will be taken in the study and value of Latin that many will be able to look back upon the history of the club and rejoice that the Amici Latini, garbed in her robe of royal purple, was the beginning of an organi- zation of many members, who have come to the cross roads and have chosen the way to the right, which says, Ad Astra per Aspera. RUTH FERGUSON. fifty -two JUr Blimatt iEpr ptinn Did we have a good time at the Freshman reception? I should say we did! We added a lot to our general store of knowledge, too. Those information blanks we filled when we first arrived at the gym told us things about our friends that we had never suspected, such as their ages, weights, and sweethearts. We had no idea what was going to happen when the commander- in-chief. Miss Shepardson, told us to line up for the grand march. Margaret and Ted led us by a long and winding trail to the audi- torium, where the program of the evening was presented. Forward ! March ! Back again to the gym we went. Those who arrived there first were served with pie a la mode. The evening ended with school songs and yells, as all school gath- erings should. F. C, ' 22. 3luntor- fmor prnic The Juniors and Seniors journeyed to Camp Baldy on Saturday, January twenty-second. Snowballing was the main sport of the day. After our return home the picnic was voted a success even by Shorty Smith ' s wife, who had suffered great anxiety because of Shorty ' s late return from Ice House Canyon to Camp Baldy. L. K., ' 22. (girls ' fl tglj 3(inka Girls ' High Jinks came on April Fools ' Day this year. The girls who expected to have a jolly time were not fooled, but several of the boys who attempted to share the fun were fooled. Everyone was there, the girls on the inside of the gym, and the boys on the out- side. Those on the inside had lots of fun. The first part of the evening was devoted to games. Later a most unusual program was presented. When the program was over and everyone was tired of sitting on the floor, we lined up and marched around the room for refreshments. Those at the beginning of the line were served with pie a la mode, and those at the end with pie. fifty-three 0pl|Otttnr0 prutr A group of jolly Sophomores went to Baldy, February fifth, where a terrific snow fight was soon ragmg. The time Avent quickly, and be- fore they knew it, they were summoned to a delicious picnic lunch. The afternoon was spent in hiking. When they left for Fullerton, all declared that the picnic was the jolliest they had ever attended. M. S., ' 23. a onav banquet Once a year for the last three years the highbrows of our school — and some who are not highbrows — have been entertained at a ban- quet. This year, for the third time, faculty, trustees, and nearly half a hundred Honor Students were the guests. After the banquet toasts were given and responded to, and several musical selections rendered. The chief guests ended the evening with resolutions to be Honor Stu- dents again if possible. Hurrah for the Junior-Senior reception! The evening of May twenty-seventh was the time of the much-heralded and long-remem- bered event. If anyone had peeped into the gjrmnasium at about eight o ' clock that evening, he would have seen the members of the classes of ' 21 and ' 22 temporarily burying the hatchet and combining forces for the evening, just as if they had not been rivals for three long years. After the guests had admired each other and the gym- nasium, everyone found seats and listened to the program. After the refreshments I am sure that the Seniors were sorry for the many hateful things which they had said and done to the Juniors during their high school career. Aluatitt The annual meeting of the Alumni Association of the Fullerton Union High School will take place on June 21st at the Fullerton Club Rooms. In addition to the program and dance it was voted at the last meeting to give a banquet each year. Officers for the year 1920-21 are: Wanda Jackman, President; Mrs. Henry Matter, Vice- President, and Margaret Beck, Secretary. Those who will represent Fullerton this year in the Annual County Forensic Contest to be held in the Santa Ana High School auditorium, May 21, are: Ruth Bowling, Senior; Dale Moore, Junior; Zada Smith, Sophomore; and Lillian Trowbridge, Freshman. The Seniors deliver original orations, the Juniors read original essays, the Sophomores give patriotic declamations, and the Freshmen present memorized read- ings. fifty-four (g ntbman (Eliarlt? Gentleman Charlie, the most notorious criminal in the world, was at last in prison. Two of his famous gang were also in prison, and the rest were in hiding. Turning state ' s evidence, one of the gang disclosed the fact that Gentleman Charlie knew where the rendezvous of the gang was; ' twas then that Charlie ' s torture began. After ten days in the strait-jacket, followed by twenty in the dungeon, Charlie was brought out very weak, and smiling ia contempt of the poor dupes who thought they could break him. When ques- tioned by the warden, he just shook his head and griuned. Angry beyond control, the warden ordered him strung up by the thumbs and flogged. Unable to stand the shock, Charlie ' s nerves went to pieces, and he was dragged, shuddering, to his damp, dirty cell. In a dying condition he sent the following message to his faith- ful gangmau: I ' m dying, Mike; my body won ' t stand this torture. But my spirit isn ' t dead; it never will die, and I ' m coming back, Mike, I ' m coming back to wreak vengeance on them that put me here to endure this torture. It may take me years to come back, but when I do, I ' ll strike through one of those society guys, will him to do my bidding, and make him suffer the consequences. Mike, things are gettiug dim, and I can ' t think, but I ' m coming back — if — I have — to — come —through— Hell! Charles Doree was the product of New York society life. He was a perfect gentleman, spent money freely, and at the age of twenty- two was a member of the famous Rich Man ' s Club. One night Doree had a great sum of money in his coat, which he intended taking to his lawyer. Lured iato the slums, he was sand- bagged and robbed. Old Sadie, one of the worst hags ia the under- flfty-five world, took him ia, bandaged his head, and set a cup of whiskey by his bed. The morning sun dawned bright and warm, but not a ray of it penetrated into the little room where Charles Doree slept. Slowly he came back through that throbbing chaos to consciousness. The famous clubman, who formerly had been used to only the oldest vint- ages, drank off that cup of vile whiskey at one gulp and felt no re- pugnance. Almost immediately a subtle change seemed to come over him. His shoulders slumped, one lower than the other ; his eyelids closed until his eyes glared savagely through mere slits. Hearing a step outside his door, he came slowly to his feet, but the man who arose with such caution was not Charles Doree, the famous New York clubman, but Gentleman Charlie, the most famous international crim- inal the world has ever known. He had been dead for twenty-five years, but his spirit was dominant in this savage-faced man, whose hand instinctively crept to his hip. Old Sadie opened the door and without looking at the bed started to raise the shade. Drop that! said a cold, even voice behiud her. She whirled and met the glance from those blazing eyes — Gentleman Charlie! she shrieked. Oh, my God! You ' ve come back after all these years. You always said you would, and now — His voice was like a snow-covered mountain with the lava running hot within it as he said: Yes, Sadie, I ' ve come back. Back through worse than hell! But they couldn ' t break me, they couldn ' t break me. In an instant he changed and was again the cool, even-voiced man who had first confronted Old Sadie. Sadie, go and get me two men and a girl whom I can depend upon to do society stuff. If you fail me — I ' d just as soon kill you as I would an animal! Two years passed, and chaos reigned at headquarters. Within the last six months two gigantic robberies had taken place, and jewels valued at over a half million dollars had been spirited away. Two mouths later Gentleman Charlie again summoned his con- federates, two outside men and a girl, named Sue. Charlie ' s graft was to install Sue in a wealthy house as a maid ; a little later one of the outside men would apply for a place as butler ; and soon, at an opportune time, all the jewels in the house would disappear; so would the maid and butler. It was rumored that the wealthy Craton-Boxwells were to give a reception in honor of a foreign ambassador, and, of course, extra servants would be needed. One of the men and Sue were duly in- stalled in the household, and Gentleman Charlie played his trump card by announcing himself to Mr. Craton-Boxwell as a represent- fifty-six ative of a famous ■western oil company, gaining his friendship and respect and, eventually, a card to the reception. Before the reincarnation of Charles Doree as Gentleman Charlie he had been in love with Helen de Forest, a wealthy young lady in New York. He had at last gained her consent, and was to have mar- ried her within a short time, but he disappeared very mysteriously one night. Detectives had been put to work, but no trace of him could be found. Later, when Gentleman Charlie made his appear- ance in society as a rich oil man, who would have suspected that this hard, savage-eyed man of the world was the deceased Charles Doree? It was absurd. It was the night of the reception. Everything was in readiness, and Charlie started for the Carton-Boxwell ' s. The master criminal betrayed no emotion as he gave the butler his coat and hat, spoke kindly to the maid, and went forward to meet his host and hostess. The evening went off beautifully ; the dinner was perfect, and all were congenial. At the end of the last course the hostess arose, and Gentleman Charlie looked toward the door. There stood Sue, and unconsciously she sprung the clasp of her wrist watch and carefully wound it back and forth three times. Three times! Charlie ' s face did not change in expression, but his heart was beating madly. Three times! That was the signal to hurry. What had happened? He saw the butler, his outside man, hurry silently across the room and speak to his mistress. She nodded, excused herself, and went into the library, requesting the others to proceed to the drawing room. Charlie followed, his eyes roving, looking for some unguarded exit. The butler and maid had disappeared, and Gentleman Charlie walked carelessly toward the wide veranda. Just before he reached the door, which meant a clear get-away in case of danger, he heard his hostess calling him. Behind him a smothered gasp broke the silence. He whirled on his heel and gazed at what apparently was a strange young woman. Of what did those tender blue eyes remind him? Why did his heart leap, and his face grow hot? Helen blindly put her hands out to him and murmured — Charles, oh beloved! Something in his brain seemed to snap. Things grew black, and he knew what had been the cause of that unconscious longing that had clouded his mind and irritated him when his head should have been clear. ■ Helen — , he gasped. Just then the big door opened — and Gentleman Charlie, ne Charles Doree, was claimed by the law, and the lost spirit of the first Gentleman Charlie had its revenge. VELMA CARGAY, ' 22. fifty-seven ®I|0 Uttal (i?u?0ti0n It was a perfect night iu early June. The Barker home was filled with flowers, bright lights, and a swirl of beautiful gowns. Gay laugh- ter and lively music filled the air. Miriam Barker was giving a dance for her classmates. After a lively one-step Miriam and her escort, Bob Gelding, presi- dent of the Senior class, strolled out on the veranda for a breath of fresh air. Come on, Miriam, said Bob. Let ' s go out here on the ter- race. Oh, I mustn ' t. I have the next dance with Harry Benton, ob- jected Miriam. Oh, hang that fellow! Please come, Miriam; I ' ve something to say to you. Well, I guess it ' s not very important. It can wait. Here comes Harry now. Please, Miriam. It ' s awfully important. Is it really? All right then. Quick! And they hurried away just in time to escape Harry, who was a terrible bore and a dreadful dancer. They sat down and remained silent a while, then — ■ Well? said Miriam. Well, answered Bob. Isn ' t it a grand night? Wonderful! said Miriam. But— Your dance is coming off splendidly. Yes, but Bob, what— It ' s getting mighty near the end of school, isn ' t it? What are you going to do next year, Miriam? Why, I ' m going to Vassar, you know. I ' ve told you lots of times. But, Bob, what did you want to say to me? Oh, I — I ' m coming to that. Say, Miriam, why don ' t you go to Berkeley? You know I ' m going there, and it would be so nice for us to be together. Why, yes, but mother wants me to go to Vassar. Yes, but I want you to go with me. Why, Bob, please hurry and say what you were going to. I simply must get back. A nice hostess I am! Well, Miriam, I — I — I suppose you ' ll think I ' m terribly foolish, but, well — you ' re a pretty good cook, aren ' t you? Bob, what are you driving at? Why — er — yes, I can cook. We — 11 — I want to know if — I want you to — Say, will you be chairman of the ' eats ' committee for the class picnic? I want to get someone who knows something about it, you know. PRANKIE MAE TAYLOR, ' 21. fifty-eight Somealit muU Wn Mt Wl mpm—K Qllaaair (?) M tif. Once upon a time Juno got a grouch on because she thought the old man had been hanging around some dame down on earth. Jupiter hadn ' t come in until the wee small hours on one particular night, and next morning was feeling about as hilarious as a dead cat when the missus started to bawl him out good and proper. She was just beginning to warm up and was hitting on all six, when Hebe came in and announced that the ants had gotten into the ambrosia, and there would be no breakfast that day. At these glad tidings Jupiter let out a yelp that was heard in the lowest regions of Tartarus and slung a couple of thunderbolts at the messenger. Juno didn ' t have sense enough to can the temperance lecture at such a critical moment, but started out fresh with a few jazzy remarks. I ' ll fix you! shrieked Jupiter, and he lassoed the old girl with a gold-plated chain, and hung her out of heaven. Then the fun started. Compared with this what had gone before looked like a chromo of Moonlight on the Hudson. But the chain was anchored good and tight. As the rattle and clatter of Apollo ' s sun chariot died away in the distance, the hullabaloo Juno was making could again be heard. Her son, Vulcan, caught the echoes of it in his cave, and came on the run. What the heck ! he remarked, when he saw his mater doing the fancy swing act. What ' s the big idea? Oh, I ' m just out for an airing! answered that much tried lady. But get a wiggle on and yank up this everlasting rope. How do you get that way? replied the young hopeful. I ' m no derrick. With these cheerful remarks he braced his feet against a stone and started to pull her in. In the meantime Jupiter, noticing that the racket had stopped, came out to investigate. Just as Juno reappeared over the ledge, he came on the scene. His feelings at the sight that met his eyes overcame him, and he pointed his nose to the sky and howled. Vulcan dropped the chain as if it were hot and lit out for the distant scenery. Jupiter made a bee-line after him, and grabbed him by the neck. Here ' s where you get yours! he exclaimed. Then remembering that he was the proud parent of the culprit, he changed his tactics, and Vulcan, propelled by the toe of his father ' s boot, disappeared over the horizon. Ain ' t it awful?

These two men have toiled day and night with but one aim in their minds — to give their best for F. IT. H. S. that our teams might come out on top, and too much appre- ciation cannot be shown for their endeavors. Coach Smith, in handling football and baseball, has met with un- qua lified success, both as to the games won and in winning the friend- ship of his players. We need not mention how his teams have tri- umphed ; an even more convincing proof of his merit is the fact that throughout the season not a complaint against his work was voiced by any player. Due to this spirit of unity which he created, his men developed real teamwork. Coach Lewis had charge of our skeeterweight football squad, and the basketball and track teams were likewise under his supervision. He, too, has won the confidence and admiration of all who came in contact with him, and all his work has been carried out conspicuously well. We look forward to a prosperous year under his direction in all the branches mentioned. Nor should Mr. Tracy be left unthanked for his assistance in handling our track squad when the basketball season overlapped track.

This sea- son has been the scene of the most exciting series of games and the most strenuous and hard-fought contests this school has ever wit- nessed, yet Shorty Smith ' s big team has emerged triumphant above them all. Santa Ana ' s best hopes were trampled in the mire, and the Orange League championship was again won for F. U. H. S. From the first, Santa Ana loomed up as Fullerton ' s strongest chal- lenger. She looked mighty good, and many doubted if Fullerton could overcome her. With this situation before him. Coach Smith was more than pleased when some one hundred and twenty-five huskies turned out for practice. After these aspirants had learned a little football, thej began to look for new worlds to conquer, and following the usual custom, our first practice game was with Covina. Covina tried hard to stop our boys, but in spite of all their efforts Fullertou crossed their line five times. Redlands was next to fall, 28 to 0, in a game that foretold our team ' s strength, for Redlands had a real team. A still harder contest came the next week, when we played Riverside. Ful- lerton was hard pressed in the first half by this big team, but in the last half our boys got down and fought until Riverside was com- pletely vanquished, 48 to 0. The team was going strong by this time, but the players began to think that they couldn ' t be licked. Consequently, when they went to San Diego, they raised the roof the night before the game and were in no condition for a hard contest the next day. San Diego won, and the loss of this game did much toward making our eleven a champion- ship team. First of the league games was the one with Anaheim, who fell hard before Fullerton ' s irresistible drive. Fullerton dashed through them for a total of six touchdowns, while Anaheim never even threatened to score. After a week of rest Orange came for her annual slaughter, and against Orange Fullerton played the strongest game of the season. The line worked to perfection, the backfield did even better; Orange never had a chance. They spoiled a perfect score by scoring on a recovered fumble, making the score Fullerton 81, Orange 7. Santa Ana had played and defeated most of the above teams, leav- ing little to choose between our team and theirs, so when the day of the Santa Ana game arrived, enthusiasm ran high on both sides. For sixty minutes of play the team fought. Santa Ana scored in the first quarter by running back a poor punt to a touchdown, and Fullerton tallied when Meiser escorted a blocked punt across Santa Ana ' s goal. After that the team tried bucks, end runs, passes, fake plays, every- slxty-flve thing to one efieet. Neither team could move the other. The game ended a tie, 7 to 7. Four days later the two teams met again, but Santa Ana had shot its bolt. A thirty-yard drop kick by Jean Arroues in the third quarter and a touchdown in the last quarter by Captain McDermont turned the trick. The championship was ours ! Throughout the season the success of our team has been due pri- marily to its coach, Stewart Smith, affectionately known to all as Shorty. He has been more than a coach; he has been a friend and adviser ; he has been one of us. May success always be his ! The team this year has been a real one, with all working together as one powerful unit. Gilbert McDermont has been a splendid captain and quarterback, and the rest of the team — Edmund Salter and Albert Yorba, halves ; Raymond Earle, fullback ; Perry Callaham and George Osborne, ends; George Meiser and Harry Shipkey, tackles; Edwin Daly and Merwin Wagner, guards ; and Harrison Acker, center — have stood behind him loyally throughout the season. Jean Arroues, Mer- rill Wildermuth, Ralph Carhart, and Ted Shipkey have done equally as well and have all won their places in our hall of fame. Thus ends the season of 1920. Another year will bring other obstacles to be met and vanquished, but under the leadership of Coach Smith and Captain-elect George Osborne, Pullerton hopes to repeat its victory. Fullerton ' s football fame has by no means been limited to our first team. Coach Lewis developed a remarkable lightweight team for Fullerton this year, and its fame has traveled far. Our ' skeeters were so good that not a single point was scored against them before their league games were over. Their hardest game was played as a preliminary to the first team ' s first Santa Ana game against a much heavier team from Whittier State. After both teams had vainly tried to score for three quarters, Fullerton won with a series of passes, 6 to 0. Tn the play-off for the Southern California championship they met the heavy Venice team at Venice on a hard turf field, yet in spite of this they were defeated by only 34 to 13. However, that was enough to end their season. The team ' s regular line-iip this year has been: Del Giorgio, left end; P. Elder, captain-elect, left tackle; Wilson, left guard; Kraft, center; Strain, right guard; Thompson, right tackle; Parker, right end ; Dunbar, quarterback ; Gregory, captain, left halfback ; Velasco, fullback ; and V. McDermont, right halfback. There were also many capable substitutes, among whom Herman, Edwards, Dale, and Watson stood foremost. The school is proud of the fine showing these midget wonders have made, and we are backing them to make a cleaning next year. sIxty-sIx Osiris ' laakftball Under the coaching of Miss Stephenson girls ' basketball has been very successful this year. With the one exception of tennis the girls had not previously been allowed to have interseholastic sports. A school team vs as chosen, and under the leadership of Captain Midge Yorba and Coach Stevie hard work was begun. At first there did not seem to be a very bright outlook, as two consecutive games were lost, one to Riverside, and one to Hollywood. It seemed to take these two games to get the girls started and to develop their spirit of undying fight and determination. Our schedule called for games with the following teams: Holly- wood, Anaheim, Riverside, Sherman Indians, and Fullerton Junior College. Out of a total of seven games played our first team won four. The members of the first squad were : Minnie Yaeger, Eugenia Banks, Frances Burkett, Evelyn Lemke, Imo Cratty, Emma Johnson, Grace Elder, Josephine Eseverri, Dorothy Randall, Delia Foote, and Mildred Yorba. In addition to this team we also had second and skeeterweight teams, but due to the fact that so few of the other schools had such organizations, these teams had but two games during the season. DOROTHY RANDALL, ' 21. (Stria ' Stibdor Saapball Notwithstanding the fact that this was the first year of girls ' in- terseholastic baseball, the season proved to be, on the whole, an un- doubted success. A large number of the girls entered into the work with a lot of pep when the season opened in March. Almost every night they were out for practice, working hard and late. The inter-class games, which were played off in the latter part of March, produced a good deal of promising material. From this Coaches Stephenson and Grieve had the difficult task of picking and training a school team. Their eiforts were certainly repaid, how- ever, by the scrappy bunch they were able to put on the field against teams from the ne ighboring schools. Every one will agree that by the time the last game was played with Anaheim, May 18, all of the girls had worked hard enough to entitle them to their letters. Already the girls are looking forward to next year vrith a good deal of expec- tation and with a vision of still greater conquests before them. FLORENCE CHAMBERS, ' 22. sixty-seven lask thall The recent basketball season has been a great success for P. U. H. S. No championships were won, it is true, but our team was never- theless a top notch aggregation and exhibited more class than most teams could assimilate. From the very first game until the sensa- tional finish of the season our boys played a brand of basketball sel- dom seen from high school teams. A few practice games were sufficient to put the team in condi- tion to annihilate Anaheim, 40 to 15. A week later Huntington Beach was slaughtered by the atrocious score of 54 to 16. Orange proved to be a more worthy opponent, but she, too, took the count after a hard tussle, 32 to 22. The most horrible mess of the season was the Capistrano game, which we won by the narrow margin of 78 to 6. Our old rival, Santa Ana, showed unexpected strength and beat us by 18 to 25. That left Fullerton, Santa Ana, and Huntington Beach in a triple tie for the Orange League championship. In the play-off both Santa Ana and Fullerton beat Huntington Beach, the former by 31 to 18 and the latter by 33 to 14. Fullerton and Santa Ana then met at Orange for the deciding game, and after forty minutes of un- equaled basketball Santa Ana won by only four points, 25 to 21. In every game the team showed remarkable ability and skillful coaching. Their smooth and characteristic team work was constantly commented upon. Added to this was the old Fullerton fighting spirit • — the spirit that has enabled Fullerton to compete successfully against larger schools ever since we entered the realm of athletics. Perry Callaham has been captain of this year ' s team and has been a splendid leader. Cally started the season as a forward, but played the last two games at guard. In either position he stood out as one of the best players this school has ever had. His quickness, accuracy, and natural ability put him in a class by himself. Gilbert McDer- mont, Jean Arroues, George Osborne, Oral Carpenter, George Meiser, and Harry Shipkey were right there all the time, and the record of the team speaks for their ability. Capable substitutes were found in Albert Yorba, Arthur Lovering, Paul Dewhirst, and Ted Shipkey. Too much credit cannot be given to our coach, Mr. Lewis, for the able work he has done with the squad. This year ' s team has been the best disciplined and most highly trained of any of our teams of recent years, and to Coach Lewis goes the honor for this. The work of our Skeeters has been no less commendable. Shorty Smith took charge of them, and they played mighty sweet basketball right up to the last. The squad regularly consisted of Ellis and Mathes, forwards; Thing, center; and Elder and Oswald, guards. sixty-nine ©rark Track has been the weakest branch of our athletic activities this year. Already suffering from a lack of good material, our team was further weakened by a late basketball and an early baseball sea- son, both at the expense of track. As a result of this our showing in the annual track and field meet was disappointing but not surprising. Early in January some of our knights of the abbreviated panties began to brave the wintry blasts, but the majority were not out until February was well advanced. As Coach Lewis was still busy with basketball, Mr. Tracy took these athletes in hand and started the systematic development of their ability. Due to this work our show- ing was much stronger than would otherwise have been the case. The interclass meet showed that we had some good distance men, but no exceptional sprinters. Billy Lester looked good in the cen- tury, and Duke Osborne showed promise in the two-twenty, but aside from this pair we were painfully weak in the dashes. Our prospects in the longer runs and in the field events were bright; Warren in the mile, Lovering in the half, and Salter in the quarter were every one of them good. In the hurdles Smith and Meiser were strong bets, while Meiser, Osborne, Allen, and Smith were possible point gainers in the field events. A few practice meets served to put the team in condition for the county meet. These meets also brought out many athletes whose ability had gone unrecognized before. In addition to those sterling athletes above mentioned, Daly, Welin, and Lemke came to the fore rapidly and were all there when it came to half, hurdles, and mile, respectively. Callaham came out for the broad jump in time for the county meet, and altogether our chances did not look so bad. On the day set for the annual meet, which was held at Santa Ana, Fullerton was strictly out of luck. Of all the events only one first place came to Fullerton, when Meiser flipped the twelve-pound pellet some 43 feet. Due to the fact that Huntington Beach had a wonder- ful distance runner, we had to be content with Warren ' s second in the mile and Lovering ' s third place in the half. Meiser and Osborne took second and third, respectively, in the high hurdles, and Duke Osborne also nabbed second in the 220-yard dash. Perry Callaham came to the front nobly in the broad jump, coming within an inch of taking first place. In the low hurdles Smith came in third, and by taking fourth in the furlong with a fine race by Eddie Salter, and another fourth in the shot put due to Gilbert McDermont ' s efforts, we brought our total of points up to twenty-five. Letters for track this year have been awarded to Captain Os- borne, Cecil Allen, Perry Callaham, Arthur Lovering, Gilbert McDer- mont, George Meiser, Edmund Salter, Elzo Smith, and Tom Warren. seventy-one las ball Now we come to baseball, the grand-daddy of all interscliolastic sports. Our baseball team this year has been a mighty classy constel- lation, and as such has had accompanying success. Although the sea- son at the time of this writing is not yet over, Fullerton has a strong hold on the county championship, being tied with either Anaheim or Santa Ana for the title. Profiting by his former experience. Coach Smith got the team of¥ to an early start this year. The first of March saw the boys out limbering up, and on the eleventh day they played their first prac- tice game. Other games followed at a rate of two or three each week, until the team was in the pink of condition for the first league game. In our league schedule, Huntington Beach was first to fall. Our nine, however, did not walk on them by anywhere near as large a score as they should have. Then Anaheim was humbled in a ragged game, the score of which was 19 to 8. The team was just rounding into mid-season form when they spilled the berries by going on a five- day trip to Riverside, Redlands, and San Bernardino, with a game ever.y day. By the time they got back every player was completely stale, and in this shape they were defeated by Orange ' s weaker team, 3 to 2. It was admittedly a question as to whether or not our team could recover from its slump in time for the big Santa Ana game a week later. To the credit of their coach the fellows regained all their old pep, and Santa Ana was hopelessly outclassed. After nine innings of really good baseball Fullerton emerged triumphant by a 9 to 4 margin. That is as far as the season has gone to date. So far Fullerton has played sixteen games and won twelve, a splendid record for any team. This record was possible only with a team of consistent hitters and clean fielders, such as ours. Every player of our nine was a sen- sation. Our infield — consisting of Captain Earle, third base ; Michael, shortstop ; Shepherd, second base, and Arroues, Berkey, or McDer- mont on first — was the best of any we have had for many years. They were all exceptional fielders, with sure pegs. Seldom did a liner get away from them. In the outfield we had Callaham, Arroues, Weliu, Herman, and Goodwin. All made envious records for themselves in the outfield, and Callaham was a batter of wide renown. Our batteries were never found wanting. Behind the bat was Salter, whose head and arm helped win many games. On the mound Shorty had his pick of three dependable pitchers in the persons of Herman, Goodwin, and Callaham. It is needless to do more than mention here the splendid and suc- cessful efforts of Coach Smith in perfecting a championship nine. seventy-three loya SlFitma Nineteen twenty-one proved to be one of the most successful years in boys ' tennis that Fnllerton High School has ever enjoyed. More were out for the team this year than ever before. After many hard-fonght battles the following team was chosen : Carpenter and Dewhirst, singles ; Carhart and Neely, doubles ; Talbot Bielefeldt, mixed doubles. There were others who made a splendid fight, such as Oral Carpenter, Percy Parker, Wendell Irwin, Nathan Morse, and Charles Robinson. The team played through the whole season without being de- feated. Fullerton won the championship of the Orange League for the third time by winning from Santa Ana, which victory decided who should be the final possessor of the Blatz Trophy. The others in the Orange League whom we defeated were Orange and Anaheim. In practice tournaments we won from Chaffey Union High, Santa Ana, South Pasadena, and tied with U. S. C. Freshmen. PAUL DEWHIRST. Ever since the year of 1916, when Hilda Blatz, ' 19, the phenomenal Fullerton champion, entered Fullerton High, girls ' tennis has been the most successful of all the major sports for girls. Miss Blatz paved the way for future Fullerton champions when she won the girls ' interseholastic Dudley cup in 1919 and 1920, the Los Angeles Handicap Tourney in 1918 and 1919, and the Mabel Man- sur cup in 1918 and 1919. Another Fullerton racquet artist incidentally continued on the paved way by winning the Southern California interseholastic singles championship last year and also the Mabel Mansur cup. This in- dividual was Margaret Gurley, ' 20. Fullerton ' s 1921 team is composed chiefly of veteran players. Nita Krohn and Evelyn Bielefeldt are surviving members of the cham- pionship team of 1919. Edith Burnett and Reva Hawkins have weath- ered the tournaments of 1920, and the fifth member, Vera McAlister, though this is her first year on the team, has shown that she can com- pete with the best of them. Fullerton has bright hopes for winning the Blatz cup and the league championship again this year with the following line-up : first singles, Evelyn Bielefeldt ; second singles, Edith Burnett ; doubles, Reva Hawkins and Vera McAlister ; mixed doiibles, Nita Krohn. Another feature of girls ' tennis this year was the Annual Blatz Trophy Tournament, open to girls who have never represented Full- erton in an interseholastic match. Vera McAlister, ' 22, was the win- ner for 1921. seventy-five Qlabtt ar, IHSfl Sept. 13 Buzz Zip ! Oh, that sweet adorable buzz of the H. S. buzzer ! Everybody rushes madly back to his work.

One day as Fullerton, a good-looking young god, was vamping some of the young ladies on earth, he met a very beautiful young chicken, who was a red-headed vamp named Ana. Fullerton fell for her right away, and made a date for that evening. These two went together for about a month before Santa, Ana ' s other lover, knew about it. Fullerton used to take his beloved out joy riding in his Rolls- Royce. God Cox pinched them once or twice for speeding, but they didn ' t have to go to jail. God Cox was the god of justice and law. When people were caught speeding, sometimes he sent them to jail for ten days or a month. But Fullerton got off easier than Bebe. One day as Fullerton was leaving the lady of the fiery top, along came Santa, Ana ' s other lover. He was very angry at Fullerton and challenged him to a duel. So Fullerton said he would meet him the next day at the Oak on the Plaza. As these two lovers lived in different towns, great mobs gathered from the home to ' n of each. The affair was a huge success. Fullerton beat his rival all to smash, but as he was about to stick his sword through him, Ana came running up, saying she would rather have a mortal than a god for her husband, so Fullerton spared Santa ' s life. Santa and Ana were soon married. When this happy event came to pass, they combined their names to Santa Ana. Now Fullerton and Santa Ana meet every year and try out their skill in sports and athletics. Fullerton generally wins, largely because Shorty Smith, a handsome young god and a newly-wed, has coached him throughout the ages. DOROTHY WILLIAMS— ' 24 eighty Soph: I don ' t like Caesar.

C, Rah!!! tour (J }t (dlaBB of ' 21 September, nineteen hundred and nineteen, the class of ' 21 entered the Fullerton Junior College in full force and with a large number; some coming from Norwalk, Anaheim, and the vicinity of Fullerton. It was very hard at first to get acquainted with the Junior College and its study hall, after being accustomed to four years ' work in High School. The time came when we Freshmen were initiated into the Junior College. From that time on we were full-fledged Junior Col- lege students. The Freshmen gave the Sophomores a party which will be long remembered by both classes. The year ' 20 passed with honor and success for the Freshman Class. They took part in many Junior College activities, sucli as Debating, the Stringed Instrument Club, the Dramatics Club, the Glee Club, basketball, baseball, and tennis. The next year soon rolled around. We again entered Junior Col- lege ; not as Freshmen, but as Sophomores, therefore somewhat more dignified. The class officers are : President, Viola Cxaffner ; vice-presi- dent, Clare McCarthy ; secretary, Nell Housley ; treasurer, Alice Goodwin. We being now the Sophomores, it was our turn to initiate the Freshmen. The time came and the Freshmen appeared in kids clothes. The party given was a grand success. From that time on, the Freshmen and Sophomores were as one — one student body, endeav- oring to cherish and uphold the standards of our Junior College. The Sophomores are leaving this institution, feeling that they have put something into Junior College that has bettered it and has made it a greater Junior College. Now other walks of life are calling us and we must go out into the world, and try to achieve success and honor in whatever we shall choose to do, for, it was Junior College that helped us on our journey in life, and inspired us to want to live nobly and do all things well. May Fullerton Junior College, in the years to come, become an even greater Junior College than it is now, and may the Freshmen, as Sophomores next year, uphold the high standard of the Sophomore Class of ' 21, and have the welfare of the College as much at heart as our class has had.

There are cooking classes, sew- ing classes, brilliant classes, dull classes, nice classes, horrid classes. But the really important class of all the myriad classes, since time began, is the Freshman class of F. J. C. — our class — ' 22. In the first place we are an ornament to the campus. To prove our good-looks, here ' s a picture of us. Just one glance at it will convince any sane, broad-minded individual that we would be an orna- ment to any campus! Tradition says that Freshmen are always timid, frightened, un- obtrusive atoms, who shyly slip about the campus, fearfully doing the royal will of their tormentors, the Sophomores. But tradition, like rules, have their exceptions. Who could imagine us meekly submit- ting to the various ridiculous rules, which we were to follow — accord- ing to the Sophomores — such as to black their shoes, to salute them, and various other foolish, absurd things! We were so far from the regular scared Scrubs, and such good sports, that those Sopho- more enemies of ours soon became our firm friends. From that time on we took our place in every school activity — ■ fact is, we carried on boys ' athletics without any help from the Sophs, though some people might be catty enough to say this was because there were no boys in the Sophomore class. Several of the most impor- tant officers in the student body were of our class. We showed our dramatic ability, our musical ability, our oratorical ability — in fact most every kind of ability. We ' ve had some mighty good times as Freshmen. We almost hate to think the year is nearly over. Only a little while and we shall no longer be able to lay a claim to that beautiful color so often attrib- uted to Freshmen — green. Soon, when we get peppy and begin to cut up folks won ' t say, Oh, Freshies will be Freshies; they will say instead, When young people become Sophomores, they should learn to control themselves. And yet, one can ' t stand still — so we ' ve been told; and as long as being Freshies has really been so pleasant, probably it will be nice to be Sophomores, too? Who knows? Quien sabe? So, rah for the Freshmen of ' 21 — Sophomores of ' 22 ! MAEGARET RICE— ' 22 eleven ©llf CnUfgiattB The Collegians is the social orgauizatiou of our college. Its membership consists of the whole student body, but it has au executive committee of its own, consisting of a president, vice-president, and secretary-treasurer. It is the duty of the executive committee to organize and carry out all the social functions of the college. The club was organized for this year at the Freshman initiation. The first social came at Hallowe ' en, and was true to the season in its nature. The gymnasium was decorated for the occasion. Vari- ous costumes appeared on the scene, lending atmosphere to support the spirit of the evening ; appropriate refreshments were served in the form of cider, doughnuts and apples. Our next partj was distinctly a moonlight affair. Everyone there was prepared to see brilliant stars at any momen t with the help of his roller skates. It was a cold December moon that lighted the walks of the campus for that jolly group of reckless skaters. After some hours of rolling, the group sauntered to the rear of the campus where they warmed themselves and toasted wienies around a roaring bon- fire. A somewhat more formal atmosphere hovered over the occasion of our farewell party to Mr. and Mrs. Knopf. Mr. Knopf was the only one who did not know that this event was under way until he was innocently led into the presence of the party of J. C-ites, who were gathered to welcome him. Some weeks after this, we celebrated St. Valentine ' s Day with an appropriate party. Several declared this to be the best we have had. This is only a proof that our parties are growing better. We are planning our next to be another skating party, and we are look- ing forward to the best time of the year. HARRY BRISCOE— ' 22 Our school is not merely an institution of learning, it is a citizen- factory, so to speak. We are to be the products. We are citizens in the making. We are to handle the great mistakes of civilization, such as those of extreme poverty and dangerous riches, child slavery, hind monopoly, tariff, capital punishment, war, and many others. The raw material is good ; will the finished product be fit to cope with great world issues? Will we be the right sort of men and women? The school as a miniature republic or nation has for its executive the student body president. The Executive Board represents con- gress. The several classes represent the states and the governors are represented by the class presidents. The courts of appeal are the faculty advisers. Our teams in forensic and athletic activities may l)e compared to the army and navy. In school we learn to think and to exchange our views, and our thoughts. As we grow older, this practice will become a habit, the habit a rut, and the rut an instinct with us. The first thing, there- fore, to keep in mind is that the ruts of habit we form while in school will cling to us after our school life is ended. The things we do today will encourage us to go farther tomorrow in good or evil. The president of the student body is the head of the government. The Executive Board works for our good and for the good of the miniature nation and if we infringe on its rulings, or the powers and laws in the constitution, we are not good citizens and will be fair subjects for an autocracy, because that form of government will suit us best. Under such a government the subject ' s thinking is done for him, he has no voice as to how he shall be governed, he is punished for slight offenses and he does what he is told to do, or suft ' ers the consequences. It is our duty as the older ones in this miniature repub- lic to set noble examples for the younger boys and girls of the high school. We cannot be too careful of our conduct. It was by examples that we got our lessons, and it should be by good examples that we should teach the science of citizenship and good government. As in the ease with citizens of the United States, we should take an active part in voicing our opinions and in abiding by the majority rule, or any other prescribed rule set down in the constitution and by-laws. In order to be good citizens, we mlist be reasonable, and we must learn to think independently, that others will not have power over us to lead us into wrong-doing. Let us so live that we shall be worthy to take up the affairs of the nation, and to carry them to a glorious success for the preservation and welfare of our dear country. DAVID GOODWIN— 22 thirteen iramattr (Eluh Officers: Flora Walker, President. Betty Frazee, Vice-President. Franklin Howatt, Secretary. Harry Briscoe, Treasurer. Credit for the wonderful success achieved financially and other- wise, by this year ' s dramatic club, is not entirely due to the above named officers. In the first place about thirty-five students gave; very faithful support to the Club, and among these were many who were not only talented dramatically, but who were also old hands at the game. In the second place we were fortunate in having, as director, Mr. Askin, whose leadership in rehearsals was the corner-stone of our success, and Miss Stevenson, as faculty adviser, who kept alive the pep of the Club. The first play presented Avas that deliglitful old-fashioned comedy with which many of us are already familiar— Come Out of tlie Kitchen. Here follows the cast of characters: Olivia Daingerfield, alias Jane Ellen, the cook Flora Walker Elizabeth Daingerfield, the younger sister Betty Frazee Paul Daingerfield Hobart McProud Charles Daingerfield Charles Wittmer Burton Crane, the Yankee Harry Briscoe Mr. Tucker, Crane ' s lawyer Cecil Strawn Randy Weeks, Real Estate agent Franklin Howatt Mrs. Faulkner Florence Ford Cora Faulkner Beverly Smith Tom Lefferts David Goodwin fifteen Now about finances. The actual receipts from the sale of tickets to Come Out of the Kitchen were .i)244.9(J. The cost of putting ou the play, including the royalty, was $171.37, leaving a net profit, over and above all expenses, of $73.53. This amount has been assigned to the Annual fund. Three one-act plays constituted the program offered l)y the Club for the second semester. The Teeth of the Gift Horse, Gi ' ingoire, and The Clod are the names of the plays. The Teeth of the Gift Horse was presented to the students in Assembly, April 19tli, at 2 o ' clock, as part of the Annual Junior Col- lege vaudeville. Gringoire was taken to Anaheim High School in the interest of the Greater Junior College Movement. The Teeth of the Gift Horse was used in a simple manner at the Norwalk High School. All three plays were then combined and presented as an evening performance in the local auditorium, on Friday, May 13th, at 8 o ' clock.

This year the Debating League opened with the question : Re- solved, that the United States should cancel her war loans made to her allies during the great war. The affirmative was upheld, at home, by Mr. Howatt and Mr. Bris- coe ; Santa Barbara having come to Fullerton. The negative was upheld by Miss West and Miss Walker, at Santa Ana. Fullerton scored a victory at both places, winning by a score of 2-1. This made Fullerton winner of the League by most debates won, but Santa Ana had the same number of judges, and judging by per cent, Santa Ana won from Fullerton by having three more points to her credit. Later on, the girls of the college challenged the girls of Whittier College to a debate. The question suggested and adopted was : Re- solved, that the Filipinos should be granted their independence. Jessamyn West and Esther Casner upheld the negative success- fully for Fullerton, at Whittier, April 29, with score 2-1. FLORA WALKER— J. C.

There are several departments in the paper, which are becoming more definite and well-marked with each issue. There is a page of Sports set apart for all competitive athletic events. Assemblies and meetings of an academic nature are reported, as well as debates and lectures. Dramatic events play a part in campus life, perhaps second only to sports, and as such are given their just dues by the New Pleiades. In its criticism it has tried ' to hold to constructive, helpful, kindly remarks, for it has realized that the players were not professionals, but hard-working amateurs. Musical numbers have an important place in the New Pleiades, and they will receive an even more important place as time goes on. There are sections devoted to personals, gossip in general, and humorous stories, known to be consumed with avidity by tlie student body and faculty, before anything else in the paper ; this is proof of the interest this department of our sheet holds for the reading public.

On the first Tuesday of each month, the Board of Commissioners, composed of the President, Alice Staton, the Secre- tary, Ida Manter, the Treasurer, Franklin Howatt; and three commis- sionei-s elected at large : Claire McCarthy, Everett Houser, Viola Gaffner, together witli Dean W. T. Boyce, met to discuss matters pertaining to the general interests of the college. It has recommended to the Student Body plans for the execution of rules of conduct and has adopted a new system for the awarding of insignia for participation in athletic events. It also formulated and successfully carried out plans for entertaining the delegates to the Convention of the Junior Colleges of Southern California, which was held at Fullerton on Saturday. December 4, 1920. Though the work of maintaining a publicity bureau was eagerly taken over by the New Pleiades, the commission proposed and carried through the plans for the Blue and Gold Week, held with signal success during the second week of May.

The girls wished to do something to remind people that there was in existence a real, live Glee Club, so they decided to put on an opera. As an opera, which necessitated a large cast, could not be consid- ered, the girls wrote an opera of their own. The fairy tale of Cin- derella was chosen as the story, and the work of writing the opera was divided evenly among the girls. As soon as Cinderella was Titten, parts were given out and work began in earnest. Several Junior College girls, who were not in the Glee Club, helped to make the production a success. Cinderella was presented during Blue and Gold Week at the regular assembly, in charge of the Junior College. Under the able direction of Miss Wishard it met with great success. Those taking the various parts were: Cinderella Elta Ogden Prince Florence Ford Clock Ida Manter Ugly Sisters...... Clare McCarthy, Gladys Fitz Fairy Godmother Mildred Howe Chorus — Blanche Fulwider, Helen Culp, Hazel Wallenius, Beverley Smith, Gladys Rowland. Next year the Junior College hopes to have a larger Girls ' Glee Club, and then a greater production can be staged. roA MANTER— ' 22 Qlfjp Kuttior (HalU t Q uartet The Junior College Quartet, under the direction of Miss Wishard, helned to give music, this year, a place in the Junior College extra — curriculum activities.

(Merton Harlow replaced Hobart McProud in the second semester.) ' ■ The quartet sang in public on several occasions: at a meeting of the Men ' s League; before the Houser Bible Class; at the Methodist Church ; at the American Legion Benefit ; and once at a regular High School Assembly.

Over eighty-five athletes were entered, and good time and marks were made in every event. The competition was very keen and experience made the big count. The majority of our team had had absolutely no track experience, but the showing that every member made indicated that he had real fight. Lake, Yost, Noble, Wittmer and Hawkins made the trip and every man showed his worth. The last named was the high point man for the meet. Again I want to emphasize the success of the meet ; and it is a big boost for the Junior Colleges that medals are to be given this year and at all future meets. The work of Yost in the two-mile, one-mile, and 880 was very good. Noble did quite a bit of sprinting in addition to running the hurdles and relay. Lake ran a pretty 220, and relay. Wittmer was an all-round man, being a competitor in the high jump, pole vault, hurdles and relay. J. Hawkins did most everything from the quar- ter down, including all of the field events and the relay. On the whole, I want to say that the season was a successful one, and very faithful in the unearthing of unknown matei ' ial for Coach Culp to work with next year. JOHN HAWKINS (UtlP laakptball i paaiitt A long and successful season distinguished the basketball record of 1920-21 from that of other years. Though practice began in October, regular coaching was not available until Professor Culp kindly offered his services. Not only this difficulty, but also that of changing play- ers, made consistent winning impossible. Morley and McProud (elected Manager and Captain, respectively), both experienced players, left school soon after practice started, and their places were not taken until the beginning of the second semester, when MeCullock, Shipkey, and Hawkins, entered school. The Junior College League game with Chafl ' ee, unfortunately, had to be played when the team was weakened by loss of players. When these dis- couragements are considered, the large majority of games won becomes especially significant. As basketball captain, I wish to express my sincere regard for every fellow on the squad. Your unfailing loyalty is to me a source of many pleasant memories. The records show that if only part of this year ' s players are in school next winter, a very successful basket- ball season is assured. EVERETT HOUSER, Captain. twenty-seven 3um0r fflnllpgr ©pttma It is a heavy burden that the tenuis team of this year has to bear in order to keep up and to further the record of last year ' s team. The Junior College team of last year was the championship aggre- gation of the campus, easily defeating the High School and Faculty cracks. It was a strong combination, the team of last year, but it is too early to say quits ' on this year ' s turnout. The girls should have an especially strong bunch this year, and should easily outshine the performance of the fairer set of last year. But the boys will have a job. Ford of last year ' s team was a strong, steady, pei-sistent fellow, and his play will stand as an incentive. Alice Statom will probablj ' stand out among the girls of this semester ' s play. She has a preponderance of experience and is as stead} ' as the proverbial eight day clock. This is Alice Goodwin ' s first year of playing tennis, but she has certainly done well, for she has earned second place on the team. Next in line is Margaret Gurley, the all-southern champion of last year. This little girl plays a wonderful place game, and may cause Alice no small amount of trouble, in order for the latter to hold sway as the first player in singles. Also there is Viola Gaffner, a very reliable player, Eudolpha Clark, Ida Manter, and Blanche Fvilwider, all strong contenders in this much- loved sport. There are only a few boys out, but they have the old winning spirit and tliis counts a great deal. John Hawkins has had probably the most experience and should bid strong to play the first single position. If he does not it will not be from any lack of experience. The next man who should capture a high place on the team is George Mahoney, our Lincoln friend. He played a couple of years on the Lincoln High team when the latter was good in this sport, and that experience should help him greatly this year. Then comes Lake and Strawn. Their game is a steady one, and with much practice they should round into very good prospective champions. Yost, Noble, Hitchcock, Harlowe, and Briscoe are also putting up a very respectable game. Practice is the big thing now in order, and the third week should find all hands going strong. Such is the outline of the tennis array for this semester. It does not particularly partake of brilliance, but it will behoove everyone to watch its success, when once under way. JOHN HAWKINS, ' 22. twenty-nine (Eal nJiar September 13 School opens, with some of the old crowd back, and a very much larger crowd of newcomers. Things are pretty much the same, only noisier than ever! And we have new windows in the dooi ' s of the Reference Room. Everybody is dividing his time between greeting old friends and trying to get his schedule changed. September 15 The first complaint is registered when somebody finds that the hall door into the Library is to be kept locked this year, and we have to go around through the High School Study Hall. Such a lot of wasted energy ! September 17 The Anti-Vamps look over the Freshman girls, and decide not to take in any new members. They don ' t look as if they would be sincere workers for the cause. We have more boys this year than the old school is used to. There ' s only one thing to do with them, — organize them into a foot- ball team. The boys are planning a vigorous athletic program, and pretty soon they ' ll be out decorating the front lawn with the High School team. September 22 We hold a Junior College Assembly in the Reference Room, to organize the Student Body. Disorder is in order for a few minutes, while the Freshmen try to find out which tables are the most com- fortable to sit on. Of course, the Sophomores started it — will they ever grow up? Flora reads the Student Body Constitution to us, and we decide to amend it, and bring it down to modern times. The Soph- omores distribute invitations for a party Friday night, and the Fresh- men look seared. thirty September 24 Those poor Freshmen! There wasn ' t anything the Sophomores didn ' t do to them. Those green caps are so becoming — why don ' t they always wear them? And at the party! We gave the Rialto Theatre the treat of seeing and hearing some forty little wildflowers. They were quite a bouquet. Ask anybody who saw them. And you should have heard the little girls scream when they saw the place where bad J. C.-ites go after they graduate. It was only old Sally, anyway, and Alice was working the flashlight and making the noise. Sherman was very brave, only it was a shock to have to swear alle- giance to the Junior College, with his eyes blindfolded. Anyway, everybody got a kick out of the aeroplane ride and the refreshments, and all the children went home happy, and very much wiser than when they came. September 29 Mr. and Mrs. Knopf hold Open House at La Hacienda Alta Verde. We learn startling things from the ouija board, and hear everybody ' s favorite music, and discover some budding romances in our midst. And those doughnuts and the cider ! October 4 The Dramatic Club comes to life again. We hold a meeting, and the Freshmen try out for membership. Much talent is discovered. October 11 Hobart stands out in the hall and disturbs the Reference Room. We think he must have been sick, although maybe he was only singing. Mr. Boyce hurries out, looking worried, and the noise stops. We hope it was nothing serious. October 12 Poor Julian ! He has a sore foot and goes around on crutches. We are all quite distressed. We feel so sorry for Julian — and then the crutches make so much noise. October 16 The boys have had to give up football, but never mind! We ' ll start in now to have the best basketball team going. October 18 The Dramatic Club planned a picnic at Orange County Park, but forgot to ask the weather ' s permission beforehand. Of course, it rained, but we couldn ' t be bothered. We had our picnic in the gym, with our supper and business meeting in the cooking room, and decided to give Come Out of the Kitchen, if we can get it. And some — we can ' t mention any names — went over to the gym after the meet- ing, and, well, it was worse than the Virginia Reel. thirty-one October 20 The J. C. boys have a Rube Day without telling the girls anything about it. They staged a wedding in Assembly, with Hobart as the groom and Burt as the blushing bride. Cecil performed the ceremony, and then Hobart ' s bachelor friends mobbed, lassoed, and lynched him by way of congratulations. October 21 This is a day of mourning. It ' s all on account of what happened at the Dramatic Club the other night, and the powers that be have decided that it will be just as well for the Dramatic Club to dissolve until next January, after we have had our try-outs for the play. October 22 We have some new screens on the Reference Room windoM ' s fac- ing the tennis courts. There is some discussion as to whether they are to keep the tennis balls out, or the students in. October 27 A sign has appeared on the bulletin board : ' ' Those wishing to join the I. H. M. S., please sign here. It causes a good deal of com- ment among the Freshmen. The Sophomores smile knowingly and say, Sure, Go on and sign. There are a number of stiulent sig- natures, but none from the faculty. October 30 Of course, we had to have a Hallowe ' en masquerade ! And such costumes! V. G. and Clare and Franklin aren ' t really as black as they were painted. We ought to have a fine baseball team later on, when we can afford a real bat instead of an Indian club. November 1 The girls are organizing a basketball team. Now watch us ! November 2 There is weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, when we learn that Mr. Knopf is leaving us to take up some work for the Methodist Church. We shall miss Ma and Pa Raspberry more than we can say, but we all wish them success in their neM ' undertaking. November 4 Try-outs for parts in Come Out of the Kitchen are held. Flora and Harry get the leads, and we have to start rehearsing right away. Don ' t you know it ' s to be given December 3? That ' s less than a month away. November 6 A gay group of Collegians, both past and present, gather in the club room for a farewell party for the Knopfs. And weren ' t they sur- prised ? Flora demonstrated her ability in running off with the music- rack. thlrty-two November 17 Report cards for the first quarter put in their appearance. Some- body is always taking the joy out of life. November 24 Two and a half days ' vacation! The two days are because the Pilgrims, or Puritans, or somebody, had some kind of a feast a long time ago, and the half-day is because the High School football team has tied Santa Ana for the Orange League championship, and we all have to go over and watch them play it off. December 1 The Ethics class discuss the sub-conscious mind, and Alice learns what the goal of life is. December 2 You wouldn ' t think it of a nice girl like Clare, but they do say that she uses Shuwite and 0. D. C. for her school girl complexion. December 4 The Southern California Junior College convention met in Ful- lerton, with about twenty-five delegates. Anyway, they had a good lunch, even if Blanche did make a mistake about the pie, and the menu wasn ' t very artistic, and didn ' t sound very filling. Jessamyn had to come into the kitchen to get some more to eat, and leave it to her to spill the beans. Clare will make a good dancer yet, if she keeps on practicing. And where did they get those tickets to Hoyt ' s Theatre ? December 8 A heated discussion takes place in Ethics as to whether we shall study Political Science in Theory or in Practice next semester. Leo wants to know which book costs more. December 9 You ought to have seen our boys beat Anaheim High School. The score was 24 to 19. December 10 We distinguished ourselves by winning both our debates, Santa Ana and Santa Barbara being the victims. December 23 We had to come back and have a skate, even if it was vacation. Everybody had a good time, even those who were just learning to skate. And wasn ' t it fun having all the alumni back? We didn ' t keep track of all the casualties, but you might ask Frances about one of them, because she told us not to tell. For once we had too many wieners and buns — but nobody minded that. thirty-three January 3 We come back to school, iu an atmosphere of Christmas presents, New Year ' s resolutions, and cold weather. January 7 We have a very exciting J. C. assembly, and begin to plan for the Greater Fullerton Junior College. We are going to advertise F. J. C. all over the country. Mr. Boyce insists that some of us must be sent to Norwalk, and a long list of volunteers is secured on the black- board in the Reference Room. Eventually? Why not now? January 10 A man comes down from Los Angeles to show us samples of grad- uation invitations, and the Sophomores pick out a nifty one. Good- ness! Are we going to graduate that soon? January 11 All the J. C. girls are going to get their handkerchiefs insured. Alice is particularly worried about her American Beauty crepe de chine one. At least three of the boys are known to be collecting them. Exact figures cannot be obtained, but it is rumored that How- ard ' s collection has reached the 55-mark. January 14 The Dramatic Club takes in about two hundred fifty dollars at Come Out of the Kitchen. The play goes off satisfactorily, even though they have to stop and explain about the home-brew. And we don ' t cry over spilled grape-juice, either. January 20 The semester exam in Econ is scheduled for 10 :30. At 8 :30, the Reference Room becomes a Bureau of Information, as everybody asks everybody else about the Theory of Prices once more, Free Silver, Clearing-houses, and Free Trade (See page 510). January 25-28 What a bother it is to have to devote four perfectly good days to the business of semester exams. One would think we were used to studying, we do it so nicely. January 28-31 We can stand even an exam, week, if it ' s followed by a trip to Baldy, which includes a Ditch Day on Monday. A new and partic- ularly fascinating indoor sport is discovered, but it ' s quite expensive. Yoi; would really think Howard would know that pancakes are more easily digested when they are cooked. Oh, well, he ' ll learn some day. February 7 The Dramatic Club is again on its feet. We had a meeting in the Club Room, and with permission from headquarters, danced the Vir- ginia Reel. Some of the girls spent the night in the Rest Room. thirty-four February 8 What is this new sign on the Reference Room door that confronts the hungry student as he enters? Breakfast Served Here From Six to Eleven. It is a beautifully lettered sign, but there ' s not a word of truth in it. We wonder where it came from. Also, what became of Mr. Askin ' s sign: Please Enter at the Other Door. February 9 Another exciting basketball game is played in the gym. The boys beat Santa Ana, 38 to 33. February 11 We hear John Drinkwater ' s wonderful play, Abraham Lincoln, read in Assembly by Mr. Blanks of U. S. C. February 16 When you are overwoi ' ked and bored like we are, there ' s nothing like a Valentine party to relieve your feelings. We all come in costume, and write Valentines for each other, and try not to get caught saying ' ' Yes or No. ' ' And we dance the Virginia Reel all to pieces. It ' s strange how much fun you can get out of a Virginia Reel, if every- body joins in. Some of us stayed in the Rest Room again. Midge and Rae sit up and study Spanish until one-thirty, and somebody dolls their bed all up, in their absence. Ssh! Don ' t say a word. In the morning, numerous things are reported among the missing, notably hair-brushes and shoes. Clare finds herself in a pickle, owing to her short memory, but it comes out all right. February 4 Several groups get shot for the Annual. We don ' t get very fussed, only the Executive Board picture was shocking — and the Girls ' Glee Club looked so musical, didn ' t you think? May 11 A matutinal is given for the class of 1921, by Mr. and Mrs. Boyce, at their home. May 9-13 Our big Junior College week ! It includes a May fete, a picnic, a J. C. Assembly, and everything! The Annual goes to press ! BEVERLY SMITH, J.

First Father: My boy ' s letters from college always send me to the dictionary. Second Father: That ' s nothing! My boy ' s letters always send me to the bank. What ' s the difference between vision and sight? asked Billy. Well, my girl is a vision, but yours is a sight! answered Jack. Jealous Young Man: Did you go out with that young fellow again last night? She (laughing): 1 did. Now, what are you going to do about it? He: I ' m going to make j ' ou give me a kiss for every one he gave you. She (sobering) : Well, what do you think I am, an adding machine ? ' ' « « « Mother: Where have you been? Boy : Sunday School. Mother: Um-m. I smell fish. How do you account for that? Boy : Oh, we had the story of the five loaves aud the two fishes. thirty-six Why do you always turn out the light before letting me kiss you? Because, in the dark, 1 can make believe it is someone else. Were you ever pinched for going too fast? No, but I ' ve been slapped. Assistant whispers to Prof. : ' ' Why don ' t you call on the Russian girl? Prof.: I don ' t dare to. I can ' t pronounce her name. m GRINS Note to Our Readers: A little space we now are filling — Q, for a flash of wit! For something sweet, for something killing — A joke, a pun, a hit. Stevie: I really think tlie world has arrived at the point where it is not safe for it to become more wicked. Phyllis: I don ' t think it ' s wicked. Perhaps it ' s because I ' m not grown up. Stevie: I ' d hate to have you grow up any taller, Phyllis. Mr. Boyce: The points the man was presenting in that lecture were false. I was utterly dumfounded when I looked around the room to see how the good citizens were taking it. They were literally flrinking it in. Johnny: Too bad you were educated. Otherwise you might have got a kick out of it, too. « Waitress: Say, kid, what happened to your hair? Irene: Nothing. Waitress: Well, kid, you are some peroxide blonde. « Teacher: What animal supplies your mother with warm clothing? Small Boy: My father. « « Noble and Irene enter short order cafe and yell for service. Waitress: Well, children, what do you want? Noble : Something to drink, stronger than Bevo. Irene : Corn Beef and Cabbage. thirty-eight The Pacifist Did you ever notice this : When a fellow steals a kiss From a righteous little maiden calm and meek; That her scriptural training shows, In not turning up her nose, But just simply turning round the other cheek? Ikey (to his son, Moses) : How much is twice times two? Moses: Six, f adder. Twice two is not six, it iss four. ' ' Ya, f adder, I knowed it. I said six so you could Jew Ikey : Moses me down. ' A Duet A dillar, a dollar This full dress collar 1 wish it were in Hades. It hurts my neck. It looks like heck And just to please the ladies ! « I must confess This backless dress Detracts from all my joy. It must be tight To stay up right And just to please a boy ! « Nona: George and Amie dance well together, don ' t they? Dona: Yes, well together is right, my dear. There was a crooked man, so he became a real estate dealer. « The story of the little pigs reminds one so much of the landlords. Little Jack Horner Danced in the corner Doing the cheek-to-cheek ; But bad luck it brought him; The faculty caught him, — He ' s been missing now all of a week. forty The girls in San Diego all like red-headed Fvillerton boys. H. Noble to conductor in one-man ear : ' ' Say, mister, I want a bag of peanuts. M. Rice: What ' s a semester hour, one that lasts a semester? Eudolpha C. : No, they all seem to do that. Want Ad— For Sale — A full-blooded cow, giving milk, three tons of hay, a lot of chickens and several stoves. Why did they arrest the blind man? The cop saw him blush when the co-ed passed by.  On a Moonlight Evening Harry B. (dramatically) — Is the night cold and dark? Flora W. (equally dramatically) — The night is cold, but not dark. « Found in Beverly S. ' s note book (History): Pope Pius had a marvelous castle. He had seven hvmdred beds for the accommodation of a hundred horses. Would you believe it? Irene W. missed one whole week of school while in a perfectly healthy condition! And they didn ' t do a thing to him for it.  Mr. Boyce: We ' ll have a regular high school recitation this morning. I want to see how you ' ll get along.
