It is a uniting force and an inspiration to all of us. It represents our achievements, our ideals, and our associa- tion with other schools. The Indian has hecome the means through which we express our school spirit, created by our co-operation and judged hy our reputation. There- fore the Staft has chosen the Indian symbol in an effort to create an Annual which shall best express our school and its activities throughout the year.

Trustees As AN INSTITUTION we are jireatly indebted to these five men who }:ive their timt and co-operation for our welfare. They have helped in a lar re measure in building a school of which we may well be proud. Under their supervision our school is be- coming one of the most beautiful and progressive in the country. During the last year many improvements have been completed or started. Needless to say, we are most interested in the new auditorium now under construction. -Mr. S. C. Hartranft, whose many years of service have acquainted him with the routine and needs of the school, is well qualified for his position as president of the board. ID Mr. Howen, clerk of the board whose death accurred Just before this Annual went to press, the school owes a debt of gratitude for his faithful service and interest. The entire school mourns the loss of a true friend. JMr. Travers and Mr. Bloodgood have both been with the board a number of years and have given the school a valuable service. Mr. Prizer, newly elected last year, has shown a ' ital iiitcrest in the school and joined with the other members in an effort to realize an institution that will meet the demands of an increasing community.

Edith Morgan, Geneva Miller, and Wilma Hedges, who work in the registration office, are the ones who sign tardy excuses, absence slips, and all the other necessary slips, and who have charge of all the office work connected with at- tendance and grades. Elizabeth Bailey and Eunice Wolfe greet the guests who come into the principal ' s office. Miss Wolfe serves as financial secretary, and Miss Bailey is secretary to Mr. Plummer. All five of these efficient workers, through their prompt, pleasant service, have an important part in making students ' and teachers ' life run smoothly.

With this beginning we were initiated to the wiles of ditching, cramming and hazing in all sorts of ingenious ways until we became educated to the fundamentals of F. U. H. S. That the class had students with pep and vigor was shown to advantage by Freshmen representatives in forensics, honor roll, interclass and scholastic sports. Before the year ended we were recognized not only as the largest class but as one of the best classes that had ever entered F. U. H. S. The second year the Sophomores, as we were then known, came into their own. They took revenge for their initiation on the incoming class, and on the upper classes by winning in interclass sports. Forensics, student plays, sports, and scholarship were well represented by the Sophomores. It was realized at this time that the Sophomores would be the mainstay of varsity teams in the following year, due to their excellent showing in sports their second year. Juniors we became, and what a record we made the third year of our high school career! The sweater committee did right by their class with those white sweaters with black trimmings, and a black ' 29 on the left sleeve. The committee spent weeks with different representatives of knitting companies, deciding finally on the ' test ones of+ered. They did well, as the examples of their work are still being worn. There were more Juniors on the varsity football, basketball, track, and baseball rosters than of any other class. One of our members won the forensics contest with his speech on the Constitution. Scholars of the class garnered many of the silver Pleiad pins and filled the honor roll with more names than the other classes. Seniors!! Seniors!! It ' s hard to believe that we are on the last lap of the high school race. This was a record-breaking year for the class of ' 29. One of the biggest and most successful events of the year was Senior ditch day, the day when the Seniors left the campus to Juniors, Sophomores, and Freshmen. They returned the next day telling of the wonderful time they had, of snow fights, of skating, toboggan sliding, skiing, snowbaths and many other events. Then came the day when the Senior scholars were awarded California Scholarship Federation pins. Eleven were presented. Then came the anxiety for two weeks concerning who were to be chosen Alcyonians, and when twenty-one Seniors were selected a new record number was set. Next the announcement committee, and the choice of valedictorian, resulting in election of Don Pierotti. The annual Senior play was started under the supervision of Mrs. Litchfield. The Big Idea was a happy idea and a great success. The class has many accomplishments to be proud of, and they have striven throughout to bring honor to F. U. H. S. They leave with a large degree of success marking their efforts. Page Tiverity-one - T H 1 : p A D K S i - Verda Abbot Gaza Basketball 2. 3 ; G. A. A ; Gill Reserve 3, 4.

I ADES h- Page Forty-one ■ THE PLEIADES - Class of ' 29 Away back in 1925, a frightened group of Freshmen were precipitated upon the F. U. II. S. campus. As we glance back to that time, we remember merely the pleas- ant things, although there were a few thorns in our pathway. We tried to be broad- minded and not let the jibes of the upper classmen annoy us, knowing that we would reach that exalted state ourselves some day. The day finally came when we were no longer lowly scrubs but Sophomores. What a time of rejoicing that was! Many and varied were the plans for our Sopho- more year. They were more than carried out, too. We really took our place in the high school life during that year. Three of our members, Donald Pierotti, Charles Thompson, and Willard Hershberger, made the Varsity football team. Girls ' in- terclass basketball championship was won by the Sophomore girls, and boys ' interclass championship was won by the Sophomore boys. Other sports were also well sup- ported b Sophomores. There were more Sophomore names on the honor roll than names of any other class. We entered our Junior year knowing that we had a fine reputation to keep up. The most important question to be settled was that of our Junior sweaters. After many argumentative class meetings, we finally decided on them. The girls ' swimming team upheld the honor of our class that year. They won the interclass swimming championship. The honor roll continued to be adorned with a great many names of the members of our class. Somehow, when we reached our Senior year, we weren ' t as glad as we thought we would be. The reason for this was that our goal. Commencement, was now in sight, and our days in F. U. H. S. were numbered. We tried to make every moment count, taking part in everything. Senior pictures were the best ever. Just about the time everyone was through frantically trading pictures with everyone else, we started planning for Ditch Day. What a glorious time we all had up at L. A. County play- ground ! Will we ever forget the bumps on the toboggan slide! After waiting and waiting, we certainly appreciated our Senior rings when they finally arrived three months overdue. They surely were worth waiting for, though. Now a« we near the end of our high school career, we can only hope for the classes following us, that tliey may receive as much from their four years in F. U. H. S. as we have. — Isabel Plummer. Page Forty-tivo ■f TH E ri. EI A I) ICS - Class Prolilicry lain After I had fought mv va throujili the dense traffic ut one of Huena Park ' s ma boulevards to the place where I had parked my Kryder straight twelve, 1 found to my hu{;e distress that it had been stolen. 1 called Traffic Officer Bacon, who sug- gested that I go to the main television office. I dashed to the Williams Krebs hundred-and-ten-story skyscraper. It was just my luck to find the elevators, installed by Bill Wood and Harold West, out of order. Therefore I jumped on the nearest thing, which happened to be an escalator. On the forty-si. th floor I was dumbfounded to find my old chum Mollie nearly exhausted from vainly trying to go up on the descending escalator, a childhood desire which at last she was trying to satisfy. I convinced her it was a feat which, so far, only Dot Chesley and Bertha Smith had been able to accomplish. Mollie was so nearly exhausted that we dropped in to see Dr. Bob J. Williams, who gave her one of Bob Wiese ' s patented concentrated energy pills. After the treatment we continued up to the ninety-seventh floor. On entering the television office we were overcome with amazement to find Ivan Jacobs, the perfector of television, greatly excited be- cause he was taking the famous actress, Verda Abbot, to the exclusive Otto Tea Salon for luncheon. We dashed to a television booth. By this time iMollie ' s energy pill had proved an overdose. With gleeful chuckles, she grabbed the instrument and immediately got it out of focus. Just imagine looking for my car on Mars! I vainly tried to control her. 1 glanced at the vision and shouted Well, if that doesn ' t look like ' Heavy ' ! Sure, that ' s who it is, said Mollie. He ' s running his passenger rocket to the other phinets. Vhy, look! Those two passengers are Helen Enos and Edith Canlield. By the way, 1 understand Lillian A. is teaching voice culture to ! Iartians. Next Mollie focussed the instrument on Saturn, where Raymond Clever had made a merry-go-round out of the ring around Saturn. Why, I do believe that ' s Charles Cramer playing the sax for the merry-go- round. And there are Orvile Long, Sue Alice McGuire, Dorothy Maxon, and Faye Mackey riding on it. Well, I wish you ' d come down to earth, JMoUie, and find my car, I grumbled. She promptly focussed the instrument toward the earth, and we caught sight of someone falling through the air. My goodness! shrieked Mollie, that ' s Charles Thompson. He must have fallen out of that airplane. ■y ' es, and that ' s ' Hershey ' stunting it. No wonder he fell out! Heavens! Tommy ' s fallen into the lake. Oh, well, it ' ll be all right, because there goes Lois Alary at top speed to save him. Say, .Mollie, what happened to Gretchen Black? She was in our swimming class. Page Forfij-three -4 TH E PL EI A Dies - Oh, hadn ' t i)u heard? She ' s teachint; the bahy hsh to swim at Charles Hez- malhalch ' s aquarium in Lonjr Beach. Say, while we ' re here, 1 said, let ' s look up the old class of ' 29. I ' ve heard some are in South Africa digging diamonds. Ves, sir, shouted IVIollie. There are Willard Johnson, John Kewish, Agnes Klose, Helen Jackson, Dula Hardin, and Francis Hcemstra digging for all they ' re worth. V ' ho ' s that poor old maid trying to Christianize the natives? My word! It ' s Martha Neighbors, I shouted. Next we saw what appeared to be an endless pier extending out into the ocean. That, MoUie explained, is the bridge Irvin Chapman built across the Pacific so he could sell his oranges to Kenneth Egnew, who is making frozen orange juice in Siberia. How ridiculous! I said. That ' s nothing, said MoUie. Alice Fields and Margaret Foist have made a successful business of selling furs in the Sahara Desert, and Ralph Jenkins is thriving on the sale of Rex Burkhart ' s Burn-up Heating Stoves in Death Valley. Let ' s see whom we can line! in Honolulu, I suggested. Thereupon we saw a vast grass field. That must be Ruth Eden ' s grass farm. I ' ve heard that Grace Hooper, her busi- ness partner, has become wealthy by manufacturing ladies ' ready-to-w ' ear. After a few minutes we located Chauncey Orton in the Sahara Desert, where he is one of the most powerful sheiks. Among his followers are: Clarence Palmer, Charles Scott, Jr., and Al Muhic. Oh, yes! I remember, chuckled Mollie, Don Pierotti, now known as the second iMussolini, has been having difSculty in trying to subdue Chauncey ' s rebellious tribe. VV ell. let ' s tr ' the V. S. for a hile, I suggested. So e turned the vision on New ork. There we found, to our amazement, Margaret Hart designing lovely bottles for Prince Zwaschka ' s expensive perfumes ; Irma Lutschg and Donis Bellamy dancing in Cuthbert Fetherstonhaugh ' s Follies ; Joe Slayden, the brilliant lawyer, defendnig Don Kisner, before Judge McDuell against a charge of disturbing the peace by serenading Connie Stevens, who declared that the noise disturbed her parrot. We also found Hugh Fry, the great magician, mystifying his audience by putting Vista Wyatt in a box and then having her appear on another part of the stage. He couldn ' t fool us, however, for we could tell by the curl of her eyelashes that it was Vcrial. Speaking of twins, what ' s happened to the Bohling girls? Mollie asked. Don ' t you know? Why, they ' re manufacturing false teeth for poultry. They say that it makes the poultry much healthier if they chew the grain, I explained. With a new spurt of energy, Mollie again misfocussed the machine on a scene in Africa. A huge lion was dashing through the jungles with terror in his eyes. In close pursuit we saw Margaret Russell and Katherine Smith, famous game-hunters for Elwood Steele ' s museum. Lets try Los Angeles, said Mollie; so we changed the scene. There we saw Evaline Boardman ' s and Helen Cluggage ' s factory for manufacturing moods for sad. Pdfje Foi-ty-fonr -4 T H E P I. E 1 A D l ' :S ■- tihiil, and iiKid occasions. We also saw Elizabeth Crumrime ' s cafe, famous for its mus- ical soup, wliicli is kept in tune by Helen Lan ; Jean Miller ' s laboratory where she invents invisible stockings ; Ann Fetherstonhaugh working o cr her hand-carved toothpicks; a blond whom we finally recognized to be Shirle ' Shipe, the inventor of the only perfect hair bleach ; and Clayton Partridge ' s and Anna Kraemer ' s chewing- gum factory in which Beulah Daniels is empUned to test the elasticity of the gum. We found Ruth Bastady and Blanche Bell painting signs for the aerial highways. Let ' s take a peek at the old school. There ' s Robert Allen, the principal ; and ' c heard that Hisako Oba is the girls ' football coach. Look! There ' s where the old public library used to be. Who ' d ever have thought such a large subway s tation would be there! Well, if that isn ' t Ted Jane- way coming out. He has invented the ashless cigar. Why that ' s Melvin Good- child with him. He ' s a mo ie heartbreaker now. He got his start in the ' Prince Chap ' . .My! my! Here comes Bert Harris, the Kandy King. He bought Catalina. And if that isn ' t Kermit Wood he ' s talking to! Kermit, ou, know, has established a successful charm school. I do believe that ' s Helen Ames, 1 exclaimed. ou know she has discovered how to trisect an angle. Let ' s look somewhere else, giggled MoUie. Whoopee! 1 wonder to whom the swell hold-out belongs. Oh, my! That ' s Countess Paulina Swett Tschuvihorkoshi ' s palace, and she ' s giving a reception in honor of her little daughter. Rowene, Paulina ' s old pal, is Miss America now. Who ' s the lady in distress? Why, it ' s Ann Walker, and it looks as if she ' d lost her famous pearls again. See! there ' s Hazel Veils, the eagle-eyed detective, searching for them. Look! I exclaimed. There ' s Kate Cook, who became famous by reviving the old dance, ' Varsity Drag ' . Is that — ! Why, it is! It ' s Marjorie, Walker, star of George Wolfe ' s musi- cal comedy. There ' s Kittie Knepp. I ' ve heard she was a fortune teller and spiritualist. They say she can foretell anything. By the wa , I ' ve heard that Willis Hatfield is giving a series of interesting lectures on the ancient custom of wearing garters. I also heard that Mildred Cox and Clara Counts have captured in India the only snake quartet in existence called ' The Wonderful Harmonizing Pythons ' . Speaking of music, Lola Meeker is the originator of the new Hullabaloo, which has replaced jazz. And Ruth Mettler and Alvena iMiller own 3, dance hall where only old-fashioned jazz is danced. There are ' Shorty ' Stogsdill and Nancy Mae. They ' re Sunday-school teach- ers in the Rev. Bob G. Williams ' church. Come to think of it, our class has turned out a wonderful lot of inventors. Let ' s see, Takyio Takahashi has invented water-wings for ducks. Leonard Max- Page Forty-five -4 THE PLEIADES ■- well has invented a periscope to watch overhead traffic without getting a stiff neck. Kenneth Crandall is tlie inxentor of permanent snow to sell to the South Sea Island kiddies. You don ' t say! I exclaimed. You knew, didn ' t you, that Margaret Mathias has conceived the idea of full moons for cloudy nights? Gordon Nelson has become quite wealthy from the sale of his noiseless alarm- clocks. And did you know that ' Skeet ' Smith designs the loveliest Parisian gowns! Well, well, who ' d have thought it! said Mollie. You knew, didn ' t you, that Howard Hasten was the inventor of a soap to help the schoolboy ' s beard along. We turned back to the television again. Well ! There are Robert George and Burton Herhst in the laboratory, where they discovered how to raise an odorless onion. It ' s warm in here! Let ' s have a look at the south pole. Well, well, someone has painted it red and white. Oh, I see, that ' s Lydia Gage ' s barber pole. Two of her barbers are Marie Hammerschmidt and Elmerine Haines. We found Helen Brashears seated at a desk in iier big umbrella factory, where Jane Emery serves as a weather prophet. She had culti ated a pet corn which was very accurate in foretelling the weather. Don Daniels was employed as postage stamp licker. Say, Arvilla, let ' s take a look at Venice. We haven ' t looked there yet. The figure in that fast motor-boat is familiar. Why, it ' s Henry Newson, author of all those censored love stories. There ' s a bunch of our old classmates in his boat, Clara Ipson, the famous Parisian dress model ; Don Dickson, inventor of the guard for tea cups, which prevents drinking. There ' s Bob Spitzer, who owns the only model T Ford in existence, and Revella Pearson, famous for testing the wind resistance of airplane propellors by blowing on them. That woman who looks as if she were longing for the shore is Betty Enfield. She ' s famous for her ' invention of the magnetic tennis racket to be used in playing with steel balls. Giving the instrument a twist, we found ourselves gazing on a green lawn where Kate Swof er, IMelba Housley, and Myra Davis were playing bridge with a mechan- ical robot. Watching them were Cornelia Randall and Marion Marsden, well known as manufacturers of easily concealed beds, which may be used for over-night stops in gyms. Where ' s Isabel? I asked. Why, she wrote my favorite book, said Mollie. It ' s called ' Alibis for all Occasions ' . You know Durward Palmer wrote a wonderful dictionary of slang, and Marion Sherman writes ' Advice to the Lovelorn ' for Lewis Robison ' s The D iily Snooze. You know they ' ve had to invent another new subject at school called ignivishu- ology, for Al Rothaermal, because he has become so fond of school. Speaking of schools, I said, did you know that ' Happy ' Wilsey is the pro- fessor of dancing in a collegiate school for girls? What ever became of ' Shorty ' Long and ' ch ' a? Page Forty-six —:{ THE PLK 1 A D !•: S - Why, thc (iwM tliat exclusive nlf;ht club in Artesia. They ' re featuring the Siehe-Widick dance team this week. Turning once again to the television we found ourselves looking at a scene in Washington, I). C President Bill Peterson was presenting the two million dollar prize for the in ention of perpetual motion to Bob Fry. Assisting in the ceremony was the Speaker of tlie House, Glen Adams. By the way, I wonder how Doris likes being the First Lady of the Land? With a sneeze, MoUie changed the scene, and we were looking at rural districts where we saw Edith Obornc, Lenora Peters, and Bob Snell on their worm farm for poor fish. Next door were Dorothy Baxter, Claudia Berry, and Florence Allen on their plantation where they raise choice frog ' s legs and snails. In the middle of the field wc saw Edith McClure trying to cheer up a weeping willow tree. We also had a peek at Virginia Chichester ' s farm for homeless cats. What are those queer things under the trees? I asked. Oh, those are Dot Kisner ' s smudge pots of scented rose-colored smoke. Wliat ' s that outside of the window? On investigating, we found Ronald Roeschlaub on his patented bouncing soles taking a short cut to the roof garden. Down on the street below we were able to make out Jimmy Robertson selling hoop skirts which can be converted into parachutes. In her desire to see all that was going on, MoUie leaned so far out the window that she was able to see into Monsieur Burton Goodrich ' s beaut) ' , salon, where he re- models old faces to look like new. Burton was talking to Mary Carey, who had a careworn expression on her face. We then remembered that the Prince of Wales, Kenneth Chesley, spent his time trying to win her affections. Two stories below we saw Sara Martin busily washing the hands and faces of the clocks in the clock shop. I pulled loUie in by the heels and we returned to the television, where we saw Marguerite Fillpot, pedicurist, working on the feet of a man whom we finally rec- ognized as Fred Reese. Next we saw Helen Alice ' s establishment for interior decorating with clouds. Assisting her were M ary Louise AUec and Alice Bailey. Then we took a peek at Evelyn Hammond ' s mammoth studio where she puts the bells in and paints the flowers on all of the belltlower apples. We haven ' t seen Hy Hetebrink, I said. Oh, there she is, working on a piece of her fine jewelry. ALirie Jacobson, who introduced hanging from flag poles by the teeth, is watching her. What a lovely garden! I exclaimed. And look at that dear old man, with the long flowing beard, reading to all of those children out of ALiry Fukuda ' s book of nursery rhymes. Just then MoUie fell oft her chair, for she had recognized the old man as Max Wilson. After we had subdued our amazement we caught a glimpse of Dot Van Valin, who, due to her fondness for pastry, is working in a custard-pie-throwing comedy.

The board tries to help the students in any way it can, and to help the faculty by lessening their duty in supervising students ' behavior in class and on the campus. The president of the Student Body, Bill Peterson, presides over the board. A meeting is held every Monday in the office of .Mr. Redfern, the faculty advisor and boys vice-principal.

Girls ' Board of Control The Girls ' Bo.ard of Control is a disciplinary group. The work of this group is to handle cases of misconduct. It has been the policy of the board to help and assist offenders, rather than to punish them. The board has been working for the benefit of the student body, and because the students have realized this, the board ' s work has been successful this year. Two members of the board were elected by the student body at large and twelve were appointed. This group of fourteen girls with the faculty advisor. Miss Kast, has worked faithfully to help build up and maintain a spirit of clean speech, clean living, clean sports, and clean scholarship throughout the student body. If the board has helped some girls to a higher and better plane of living by their work, they will feel greatly repaid for their efforts this year.

S. students put out three publications, which received the support of the student body. On Friday noon of each week the Weekly Pleiades is issued. Its popularity is shown by the groups of gossipers that gather in every convenient place on the campus to talk over the news and personals. Everyone has enjoyed the special features that have been printed every week. The paper has been consistently newsy and interesting, and much credit is due to the staff for its good work. Early in April the fifth annual Verse Book was published. This year a new custom was started, by inviting other Southern California schools to contribute poems written by their students. These schools responded with enthusiasm, a nd the result was a much larger and more attractive Verse Book. The poetry contributed by Fullertun students was exceptionally good this year. The aim of the annual Pleiades stafi of this year has been for an Annual which would give each organization, class, or team a chance to show what it has accomplished during the year. Decisions on photography, covers, and art work have been made by committees whose members were especially interested in the subject in question. This plan has prevented unnecessarily long discussions. Although the staff has met in groups, rather than as a whole, this year, there has been real co-operation. Page Sixty-nine «t THE PI.

Poor, foolish group we were to let those high and mighty upperclassmen haze us all over the campus. This was our entrance to F. U. H. S. B the beginning of the second semester, members of the class had distinguished themselves as athletes and scholars. Real football prospects had been mined from the Freshman Class. The Freshman section of forensics was well handled and from the showing on the honor roll there was knowledge in them thar green heads. This class will also be remembered as the one which had a successful scrub party. This year — Sophomores — out of the cellar at last. A new group of greenhorns came to take our place and we are here to let them know their place. We remembered many of the hazing tricks of which we had been the victims, and with these and some new inventions the class made life miserable for scrubs the first two weeks of school. The Sophomores let the school recognize their importance by placing men of exceptional ability in varsity football, basketball, baseball, track, and swimming, while the girls of the class were winning a surprising number of ictories in interclass ath- letics. F ' orensics, athletics, honor roll, drama, and other school activities had a large percentage of Sophomores on the roster.

The present membership is one hundred fifty. The club is divided into t roups accordinj; to the class in which they are enrolled ; each group meets every two weeks, and occa- sionally a joint meeting is called. Each group meets separately. They elect new officers each semester, giving more girls an opportunity to develop a spirit of leadership. The officers of each group are chairman, vice chairman, secretary and treasurer. Each group has an advisor: Miss Spalding, P ' reshman advisor; Miss Turner, Sophomore advisor; Miss Meyers, Junior advisor; Miss Dryer, Senior advisor the first semester; Miss Miller, Senior advisor the second semester. At each group meeting the girls have discussions and question boxes. These discussions develop and bring out the personality of the girls and help them to develop leadership. Seme of the activities carried out this year by the group as a whole were the Dad and Daughter Banquet, Christmas Pot-luck, Orange County Banquet, and the All Nations Banquet. Feme Irwin was chairman of the social committee. She worked hard and faithfully to make our social work a success. The outstanding welfare work done this year was the donation of Christmas baskets for the Health Center. Each group contributed a complete basket of food and little Christmas presents. Marie Jacohsen was chairman of the social service com- mittee. An important work was carried out under the supervision of Marion Marsden, chairman of the camps and conference committee. The object of this committee was to raise money to send delegates from our school to the Asilomar Conference this summer. The moving pictures which were shown this year, were the biggest source of income to our club. The plans of the club were made by the cabinet, a group of girls who were chosen by the club members. The cabinet met once a month and planned the activities for the coming months. The committee chairmen were appointed by Jane Emery, the president, who presided at all general Girl Reserve meetings in the high school. Dorothy Kisner was treasurer, and Sarah McElheny, secretary. Miss Kast, as advisor of the Girl Reserves, filled a place which will never he filled better. She was always willing to help any one who asked her. This year we had Miss Ethel Church, secretary of Northern Orange County Young Women ' s Christian Association, to help us. We have enjoyed her friendship a great deal and we are glad to have had her here. Page Seventy-three • THE PLEIADES - 3n iifmoriam 3tvn UtlUams (iai2-132B) n v V .

It was chartered in 1921 « ith the name of Tau Alpha Epsilon. This name soon gave way to the present one, which is more suitable to the FuUerton campus. Starting with a few members, the society has rapidly grown until now approximately ten per cent ot the student body are members. Requirements for membership are based en- tirely on scholarship. Being a Pleiad for eleven quarters entitles one to membership in the California Scliolarship Federation, an honor which is a great aid in any held of work. The Pleiads have given two interesting assembly programs to create interes: m the society. Each year the honor students have a Ditch Day. This year they divided into two groups and visited the Huntington Library in Pasadena. They also gave a party for the Freshmen. Besides receiving rewards for their own efforts, the Pleiads help others. In 1Q27 a loan fund was started. This fund is collected from the students and is loaned to honor students who find it impossible to go to college without help. There is more interest in the Pleiads each year, and the society ' s growth shows that the profits received from the honor society are incentives to the students to work for high scholarship records. California Scholarship Federation Eleven Seniors were the proud recipients of California Scholarship Federation pins, presented by Vice-Principal Redtern before the Junior-Senior assembly on Feb- ruary 27. These highly prized pins, which are miniature gold lamps of learning, signify that the wearer is a life member of the, California Scholarship Federation. Its seal is embossed on his diploma and on his college recommendations. In order to win this honor, the student must have been a member of the lo;al honor society for eleven quarters, two of which are in his Senior year. .Membership in this Federation is highly prized. It not only shows consistent good scholarship during the high school career, but the record of it goes with the student to college. Those who succeeded in gaining membership this year are: Robert Allen, Helen Ames, Irvin Chapman, Edith McClure, Durward Palmer, Bill Peterson, Donald Pierotti, Cornelia Randall. Shirley Shipe, Bertha Smith, Dorothy Van Valin, Bertrand Harris, Robert Fry.

S., organized to promote and maintain a spirit of friendliness and good will among the students of the school. The girls this year have shown a great interest and enthusi- asm in the league, and, with their co-operation, the cabinet feels that the past year has been really worth while. Officers are: Eleanor Otto, president: Marjorie Walker, vice president; Alta Pa. nter, secretary ; Doris Redfern, treasurer ; Lenore Pierotti, Dorothy Chesley, Bertha bmith, Martha Neighbors, Betty Boynton, Gladys King, district representa- tives; Margaret Russell and Mollie Wolford, chairmen of the I ' niform Dress Board for the first and second semester respectively. The first problem of the year was to acquaint the new girls with the campus. This was accomplished by the annual Big and Little Sister party, given by the, hos- pitality committee. The Welfare Committee assumed the League ' s Christmas work, including a program for the Mexican mothers of the community, and an intensive drive for old silk stockings, which were to be woven into rugs by war veterans. The Finance Committee sponsored the novelty card Hello Day, the Easter egg .sale, and the greatest undertaking of all, the annual Girls ' League play, Dulcy. All proceeds from this play go to the scholarship fund. The Program Committee arranged all league assemblies. This year saw the initiation of an exchange program with fluntington Park High School, which proved unusually successful. Two annual social events of the league are the Mother and Daughter banquet, which all cabinet members and committee members are eligible to attend, and the Hi- finks. This year ' s party being near St. Patrick ' s Day, much time and ei?ort were concentrated on the event to make it an outstanding one. Open House was held for the mothers of all students in May. Mothers are ahva s welcome, but on this special day an extra attempt is made by the girls to bring them together. A Japanese idea was carried out this year. Probably to the Girls ' League belongs credit for success of the Uniform i:)ress. The chairmen, appointed by the League cabinet, choose their committees. They re- cently instituted the honor system, which the girls uphold loyally. They realize as a group the advantages of uniform dress, and are truly proud of its success. The League stands for friendliness and democracy among the girls. The cab- inet and the president, Eleanor Otto, feel that their efforts to attain this standard have not been in vain, and know they can look forward to greater progress in succeed- ing years.

Their slogan is: Clean speech, clean scholarship, and clean living. They further this pur- pose by discussion at their informal pot-luck supper meetings, held every two weeks at the homes of members. Besides these discussions, the club has liad Mr. Raitt, Miss Martha Ehlen, advisor of the club in 1926-27, and Principal Plummcr, speak to them.

The work of the program and service committees, although within the club, was no less important. ] Iiss Kast was the Tri-Y advisor this year. Hi-Y The Fullerton Hi- V ' , organized in 1920 by Archie Raitt, ' . M. C. A. secretary, is now enjoying its ninth successful year. The club meets twice a month, with one open meetmg to which all comrades are invited, and one closed meeting, which only club members may attend. At each meeting a supper is provided by Mr. Raitt, and a speaker gives an inspirational talk. The slogan of the club is: To create and maintain, and extend throughout the school and community the high standards of Christian character. All members of the Fullerton Hi-Y do their best to uphold this slogan.

It was chartered in 1921 with the name of Tau Alpha Epsilon. This name soon jrave way to the present one. which is more suitable to the Fullerton campus. Starting with a few members, the society has rapidly grown until now approximately ten per cent ot the student body are members. Requirements for membership are based en- tirely on scholarship. Being a Pleiad for elexen quarters entitles one to membership in the Calitoriua Scholarship Federation, an honor which is a great aid in any field of work. The Pleiads have given two interesting assembly programs to create interest in the society. Each year the honor students have a Ditch Day. This year they divided into two groups and visited the Huntington Library in Pasadena. They also gave a party for the Freshmen. Besides receiving rewards for their own efforts, the Pleiads help others. In 1927 a loan fund was started. This fund is collected from the students and is loaned to honor students who find it impossible to go to college without help. There is more interest in the Pleiads each year, and the society ' s growth shows that the profits received from the honor society are incentives to the students to work for high scholarship records. Calij. ornia Scholarship) Federation Eleven Senmors were the proud recipients of California Scholarship Federation pins, presented b ' ice-Principal Redfern before the Junior-Senior assembly on F eb- ruarv 27. These highly prized pins, which are miniature gold lamps of learning, signify that the wearer is a life member of the California Scholarship F ' ederation. Its seal is embossed on his diploma and on his college recommendations. In order to win this honor, the student must have been a member of the lo;al honor society for eleven quarters, two of which are in his Senior year. Membership in this Federation is highly prized. It not only shows consistent good scholarship during the high school career, but the record of it goes with the student to college. Those who succeeded in gaining membership this year are: Robert Allen, Helen Ames, Irvin Chapman, Edith McClure, Durward Palmer, Bill Peterson, Donald Pierotti, Cornelia Randall, Shirley Shipe, Bertha Smith, Dororhy ' an ' alin, Bertrand Harris, Robert Fry. Page Seventy-seven ■4 THE PLEIADES } T .YA rvoiiiaiis The National High School Honor Society is formed of high school Seniors mcasuriiif: up to the standard of scholarship, character, leadership, and service. Mem- bership is considered a great honor, and allows the members to wear the emblem of the society, a gold pin or watchfob, by which the may be recognized throughout the United States. The FuUerton Chapter of the iNational Honor Society received its charter ten years ago and is known as the Alcyonian, from Alcylone, the eldest and wisest of the seven sisters of the Pleiades. Alcyonians are chosen by a faculty committee bearing in mind the national slogan, from a list nominated by the faculty and the Senior class. At graduation each Alcyonian is honored individually by being presented with the em- blem he has earned. The officers of this year ' s club arc Don Pierotti, president, and Durvvard Palmer, secretary. There arc twenty-one Alcoyonians of ' 29, the largest number so far chosen for one year. They are: Robert Allen, Helen Ames, Irvin Chapman, Jane Emery, Don Pierotti, Isabel Plummet, Cornelia Randall, Doris Redfern, Robert Fry, Bcrtrand Harris, Edith McClure, Marion Marsden, Eleanor Otto, Durward Palmer, William Peterson, Ronald Roeschlaub, Marion Sherman, Shirley Shipe, Bertha Smith, Dorothy Van V ' alin, Richard Zwaschka. I ' uge Screnty-iii lit The Latin Club The Latin Club is a new organization in Fullenon this year, with the Seniors and Juniors taking Latin, as members. A constitution was drawn up by a committee and adopted at a meeting of the whole club. Meetings have been held once a week at which there have been discussions and programs telling of Roman life. The club has purchased very attractive pins representing the old Roman fasces. At the end of the year, Sophomores having grades of one or two were admitted to the club. The officers are: Consul, Howard Livingston; Vice-Consul, Dorothy Copeland ; Proctor, Lucille Mondotte ; Quaestor, Clarence Block. The members of the club are: Seniors: Blanche Bell, Sara Martin, Clarence Block, Jacqueline Clark, Elinor Cooper, Dorothy Copeland. Juniors: Howard Livingston, ' ivian .McCarty, Margaret Mathias.

Only those who have taken Spanish four years are eligible. This year ' s club was organized soon after school opened. The officers elected were: Richard Zuaschka, president; Isabel Plummer, treasurer; Robert Fry, secre- tary; Orvillc Long and Alollie Wolford, program chairmen; Miss Klahn, advisor. After much discussion we chose for our name, Los Charlatanes. Following the custom ot other years, we bought very attractive pins. At Christmas some of the members gave a little skit at the Mexican camp and attended the party there afterward. For the Spanish assembly some of the members gave two short skits, En un Compartimiento and Su Primera Carta. In addition to these plays, the club secured the names and addresses of students of English in South American countries. Several interesting letters were exchanged, and we hope to continue our writing in the future. For social activities, one Friday in each month was set aside for meetings and parties. During May, we had our last meeting. Spanish games were played, and the refreshments were Spanish. We all voted the club a success, and resolved that the members should keep in touch with each other. French Club The French Cll ' B has been given more attention this year than ever before. The third and fourth year students are the members, with Hrst and second year students, recommended by the advisor, as honorary members. This year there are thirteen charter members, and twenty-two honorary members, making a total membership of thirty-tive, while last year there was a membership of twenty students. The club meetings, held at homes of the members, have been a huge success. The initiation meetings were under the able supervision of Elmer Wagner. The annual French program, given before the Freshman-Sophomore assembh ' , March 5, was well received. The program consisted of an original play written by Harry and Alan Whitefield, and a Fashion Show, written by Helen Ames, and sponsored by the leading clothing merchants of FuUerton. Much of the club ' s success this year has been due to the capable leadership of the president, Mary Louise Allec. The other officers for this year are: Harry White- field, vice president; Kittie Knepp, secretary; Elmer Wagner, treasurer. Paje E ' ghty-oiie { THE PI.

A girl, having won one thousand points or more, and having heen voted on by the Awards Committee for her sportsmanship, may wear the eight-inch block letter F, and also the beautiful pin which anyone is proud to wear. This year is the first year the Big F members have had sweaters. The society has been entertained many times by the instructors, Bobby, Miss Logan, and Miss Rhead. The first initiation of the Big F was held in the gym at the high school, where the society took in five new members, including Miss Miller, Eng- lish instructor. Later another initiation was held for many more new members. Every girl interested in athletics should try to make this goal, not only for the pleasure one derives from it, hut also for the honor and the clean sportsmanship that every member tries to uphold. OFFICERS Cornelia Randall President Hazel Smallev ------ Secretary (ind Treasurer Red ie i VVlLLARU Hershberger - - President Bob Williams --------- I ' iee President Irvin Chapman ------- Secretnry-Treasurer Jack Hatfield ----- - Sere eant-at-Arms The Redmen is the new boys ' lettermen club, organized during this year to take the place of the old Varsity Club. The Redmen was made possible largely through the elibrts of Willard Hershberger, Shorty Long, and Mr. Lewis, who were respon- sible for the foundation of the constitution and by-laws and the qualifications for members. A Senior may become a member if he has earned, in interscholastic competition, a Varsity and Class B letter. Otherwise, a member must have earned from three to more letters, depending upon the class of competition in which the letters were awarded. A Varsity letter merits four points, a Class B letter three points, a Class C letter two points, and a Class D and a Golf letter one point. Nine points are neces- sary for membership for everyone e.xcept Seniors, who need only seven points. The club plans to meet every other Thursday and to have two meetings a year to which members who have graduated from high school are invited. There will be an initiation at the end of the first semester and in the spring, when any boy who h.as qualified will be admitted with due ceremony. The purpose of the organization is To provide an agency for the promotion of wholesome school spirit and good sportsmanship; to further good fellowship among the athletes ot this school and assist in the solution of campus problems ; and to act as an honor service club within the F. U. H. S. Paje Eighty-three •■ ■( THE P L lil A D ] :S ■■ G. A. A. A Hi:i ' i ' ' BUNCH OF ENTHUSIASTIC ATHLETES is the only way to describe the Girls ' Athletic Association. To promote sportsmanship and stimulate athletics among all the jiirls of the school is its real aim. l o be a member one must be on one interclass team, or if unable to take an ac- tive part in athletics, one can become an honorary member by keeping score and time at the interclass games. However, this association is not all work. Every year the G. A. A. has two annual events, the indoor banquet at the close of the first semester, and the treasure hunt at the end of the second semester. Will anyone ever forget the tour we took at thei banquet? The flat tires, the collisions, and the lack of gasoline that our friends put on us? A new feature this year is the spreads. These we have at the end of each sport. Everyone remembers the hockey spread. How many snipes did the scrubs catch ? And why were so many knees done up in adhesive tape? Under the leadership of V ' elva Sullivan, president, and the coaches, Miss Loescher, Miss Rhead, Miss Logan, and Miss Randall, the G. A. A. has nearly com- pleted its fifth successful year at F. L ' . H. S. They have worked hard and faithfully to make the G. A. A. a success. Pftye Eight [t-f ntr l THE PL El AD lis ) • Fore isics Each year an increased interest is shown in forensics, by both students and patrons of the high school. When the subject was first presented before the students this year, there was an immediate response. This interest was stimulated by forensics assemblies and by articles in the ll ' eekly Pleiades. Under the able supervision of Mr. Sheller and with the co-operation of the Eng lish teachers, F. U. H. S. was able to go far with forensic activities. There was a decided change this year in the method of choosing the winner and of arranging the district contest. Instead of having four representatives from the school, Fullerton had two, an upper and a lower division representative. The Fresh- men and Sophomores competed, and a winner was chosen to represent the lower divi- sion. The upper division representative was chosen in the same way from the Junior and Senior classes. Instead of being co-operative, the Orange County meet was competitive. This was much more interesting for the entrants. Vernon Long, upper division winner, gave a very splendid talk, The Significance of the Bolivia-Paraguay Boundary Dispute. The lower division winner, Dorothea Worslcy, gave a fine reading, The Congo by Vachel Lindsay. Special mention should be made of Lucile Williams, Clarence Block, and Tom Eadington, Fullerton representatives to the Time : Constitutional Contest. In the district contest with Santa Ana, second, third, and fourth places were won by these speakers.

Each of the Freshies had been vvonderinf; all sum- mer long who that certain Junior or Senior would be who was to be her big sister. The Juniors were no less thrilled. Just think how many weary years they had struggled, and now — they were upper classmen! Being big sisters was our first ex- perience in that exalted position. After playing some get-acquainted games, and enjoying a program, we showed our little sisters around. Then came the climax ! We all indulged in ice cream and cookies, and by this time our little sisters felt that they were really part of the school. To create this feeling of friendship is the true purpose of the Big-and-Little Sister parties. Mother (111(1 Daughter Bimrjuet After a wild dash from the Anaheim-FuUerton football game, we arrived, most of us a trifle late, at the Girls ' League Mother and Daughter banquet. Before dinner each girl introduced her mother to every other mother and to the advisor. During the evening Eleanor Otto, Girls ' League president, was our charming toast- mistress. After dinner toasts were given by different girls on: The Athletic Girl, The Social Girl, and The Scholastic Girl. Mrs. R. A. Marsden responded for The Girl of Yesterday and Dorothy Van Valin talked on The Girl of Tomorrow. Miss Kast, league advisor, then gave a pleasing talk. When they left, the Mothers felt much better acquainted with the Girls ' League work and with each other. Dail and Daughter Banquet There was no difficulty in making the guests feel at home at the Girl Reserves ' Dad and Daughter Banquet. In fact, they were so hilarious that they could not be restrained. At dinner the Girl Reserves ' president, Jane Emery, presided as a gracious hostess. A humorous talk was given by our dear Miss Kast to the dads. Sarah McElheny gave a toast, To the Dads, to which Mr. Irwin responded. After dinner we enjoyed a very good program, after which all of the Girl Re- serves presented an impressive candlelighting service. The entire affair was so suc- cessful that it will undoubtedly become an annual event. The Girls ' League Ship Party At seven forti-five, November 23, the gangplank of S. S. Girls ' League was pulled in, headed for Turkey, which we all hoped to reach hy Thanksgiving. Some passengers enjoyed the deck sports, ping-pong and shufBeboard, while others reclined in the salon. Page Eighty-aeven -■ TH E PLEIADES - The voyage was particularly rough, ami man were overcome by seasickness. However, they soon recuperated through the aid of a competent ship nurse who revived the victims with lemon drops. During the evening a program was given which consisted ot readings, musical numhers, and a very clever little skit written by Miss Travers. At ten o ' clock supper was served, after which all filed down the gang-plank seek- ing the port Home. Hi Jinks Oi.o Saint Pat reigned merrily at the annual Hi Jinks. The girls were dressed in every conceivable fashion, from wild men to old fashioned dames, and from farmers to fairies. Prizes were awarded for the cleverest, the funniest, and the most Irish costumes. Members of the social committee, who acted as hostesses, wore white ducks and blouses with huge green ties, and green stovepipe hats. Some played horseshoe, table croquet, or a color game, while others went on a wild animal hunt. The winners in the various games participated in a thrilling potato race. Next came a very interesting program, after which the girls went to the cafeteria for refreshments. The cafeteria was beautifully decorated in green and white. The room was lighted by candlelight, which made the delicious refreshments even more en- joyable. Hi-Y Tri-Y Banquet The Hi- ' Tri-Y Banquet is an annual event at which the Tri-Y girls entertain the Hi-Y boys. It was held in the Odd Fellows Hall this year. The hall was beauti- fully decorated in the St. Patrick motif, and the room was lighted by candlelight dur- ing the dinner hour. Dorothy Van Valin, president of the Tri- , gave a welcome toast to the boys, to which Don Pierotti responded. Mr. Culp, vice principal, gave an interesting talk. Cootie was played after dinner, « ith prizes going to those most skilled in this thrilling game. Orange County Girls ' League Convention C). Ai ' Rii. IS, the Fullerton Girls ' League entertained the girls ' league officers from other Orange county towns at the annual spring convention. Eleanor Otto, Fuller- ton ' s president, presided over the convention. Dr. R. D. Williams of Pomona College talked un misjudging and misunderstand- ing what we think we see, and criticizing others when our eyes have deceived us. He illustrated his points by sleight-of-hand tricks. After the program the cabinet members and their advisors went to the art gal- lery where they discussed Finance, Publicity, What we can do for new girls in our sciiools, and How we can develop a better feeling between schools. A Girls ' League code was also decided on.

It was the annual Girl Reserves banquet and everyone was renewing her acquaintance with friends met at camp or conference. After the reception we went to the cafeteria for dinner. Everything was beauti- fully decorated in Girl Reserve colors, blue and white. Jane Emery, our president, presided during the dinner hour, and also over the program which followed. We went to the auditorium where we were entertained by talent from the other schools. We were also very fortunate in having a national ' ' . W. C. A. secretary speak to us on The Association Famil .

Interesting and varied programs are the objectives which Mr. Valbcrg and members of the orchestra are striving for, and these programs have been that and more. Each year the orchestra grows larger, showing that interest in music is increasing. Each year, too, it is becoming more firmly established in the school curriculum.

Mr. Walberg has dreamed for years of producing chamber music players of such skill that a string quartet would be possible. Efforts have been made in the past, but not until this year has realization been attained, and a string quartet become a reality. The quartet consists of a first violin, second violin, a viola, and a cello. The personnel of the quartet is as follows: Helen Enos, first violin; Eleanor Cooper, second violin ; Kathrine Walberg, viola ; Carolyn Pickering, cello.

Page Smety-nine -4 THE P L E I A D 1 : S }• Drama Class The drama class, numbering thirty members, has this year studied drama of the Greek, Elizabethan, Restoration, Continental, and Modern periods. It has also pre- sented several one-act plays, and taken part in many programs. Many of those who took part in other longer plays were members of the drama class. Ihe first play of the year, Dulcy, was presented on November 16 and 17, both high school and junior college students taking part. Dulcy was given as a benefit for the Girls ' League scholarship fund. The Flower of Yeddo was given on January 10 in the Girls ' League assem- bly. This play had a cast of girls. It was a Japanese play in one act. T he Student Body play, The Prince Chap, was given on March 1 and 2. The play was a great success and had an all high school cast. Sauce for the Goslings, a good English Week play, was given in the Fresh- man-Sophomore assembly March 19, and in the Junior-Senior assembly on March 20. This was a clever one-act play showing the value of correct English. Another one- act play that the drama class worked on was The Robbery. The last play of the year, the Senior play, will be presented on June 7 and 8. The Uig Idea has been chosen. The drama class went to Los Angeles Februarj 6 to see the Stratford players in Shakespeare ' s play, The Taming of the Shrew.

To help her husband in business Dulcy gives a house party and un- wittingly gets into all kinds of trouble trying to help in his business enterprises. The interesting and puzzling love affairs of Angela Forbes form the subplot, and much to everyone s surprise and joy she marries Dulcy ' s brother, William Parker.

Esther Litchfield on March 1 and 2. The troubles of the poor prince chap, an artist who adopts an orphan child, are many, if we are to judge from the play. William Pevton, the artist, is a young American living in London, who adopts a little girl when her dying mother comes to him and begs him to take her child. The play is full of pathos and humor. Because Peyton refuses to give up the child, Claudia, his fiancee, Alice Travers, refuses to marry him. After ten years, when she returns to him, a widow, and wishes to be taken back, it is he who refuses. Then Peyton wakes up and finds that his own ward, Claudia, is grown up, and that he loves her.

E. Thomas and Chiyton Hamilton. The play is to he presented on June se enth and eighth. The Big Idea is a three-act comedy dealing with the troubles of a young man, Dick Howard, who attempts to save his father from bankruptcy and ruin. To do this he decides he must commit suicide to get the money from his life insurance policy. This nearly drives his best friend, Bob Caswell, insane. Bob, who sold Dick his life insurance, is the only one who knows of Dick ' s plans. The character of the life in- surance agent furnishes a great deal of the comedy element for the play. Elsie, Dick ' s sister, brings Elaine Foster home from school with her. Elaine gives Dick the idea of raising the necessary money by writing a play about the struggle to save a father from bankruptcy. If the play is accepted and if Dick re- ceives twenty thousand dollars, he will not commit suicide ; but if the play is rejected, he feels he must die to save his mother, father and sister from disgrace. Mr. Byrne comes to Mr. Howard ' s home and demands the immediate payment of the two thousand dollars that Mr. Howard owes him. Dick is more depressed than ever because he cannot get the money. Elaine gets rid of Mr. Byrne by saying that Dick was going to propose to her when he came in. More difficulty is added because the amount that Dick must raise in three days is increased to twenty-two thousand dollars.

The soft, rolling hills are a riot of color. Crimson, gold, green, and russet intermingle in a patchwork of gorgeous tints that only New England appreciates. Among the hills a river slowly drifts seaward, reflecting the deep blue of the sky and showing up in a brilliant con- trast with the flame-tinted foliage. The azure sky is sprinkled with little cotton-like pufis of clouds that take on a golden shade as they slowly float into the horizon. As the sun glides down to the hilltops, the eastern hills change to a dark, gloomy shade as if with the thought of coming winter. The west becomes blurred in the golden haze that saturates the passing day. The deep scarlet sun sinks into a sea of heavenly blood. A little breeze rustles the gold and crimson leaves, and a crisp, re- freshing coolness passes through one like a cold shower after an exquisite dream. — Harry Whitefield. Mose Three lonc, hot da ' is had passed and Mose, with his shaggy, plodding burro. Peg, still trudged on and on into the vastness of the desert wastes. Shimmering Skull Ridge, ahead of them, forever advanced and receded behind withering windows of heat. The stillness was only typical of that on the lifeless, burning wastes of the desert, suggestive of eternal solitude, of death without mercy. But to the grizzled prospector it had always been different ; he joyed in the possi- bilities of death, and in the game of wits that he must continually play against the greatest force of nature: the burning desert. True, he was prospecting for gold; but he never really expected to find it. He had not come to America for riches; he had not come because he liked it: he had come to forget. A big, rosy moon was peeping over the edge of the sharp peaks to the east when Mo.sc and Peg made dry camp twenty miles southwest of the water-hole at the foot of Skull Ridge. After supper, .Mose made certain that Peg was all right, and settled back against a boulder to smoke and rest. He was soon in a shadowy land of dreams. He woke with a start, believing that he heard the tinkle of sheep-bells. He listened carefully. He heard it again. He leaped to his feet unbelieving. But there before his eyes grazed a flock of sheep. What sort of joke could it be, he wondered. I ' atje Uni- 1 1 iiiiilrc l Eii;! t -4 THE PLEIADES - His mouth dropped open in :istonishment when he felt a stnut stick in liis hand. He found it a shepherd ' s crook. Why — it was just like the one he used in Palestine! His clothes were miraculously changed. Instead of his dusty breeches and shirt and his hobnailed shoes, he was wearing baggy trousers, a sheepskin, and a pair of thonged sandals. Gradually he forgot he was Mose the Prospector; he was now Moses of Palestine. No longer did he feel the weight of his fifty-odd years. He was young again. His limbs were brown and supple. ' Low, rolling hills swelled before him in every direction, green, gentle, tinted with yellow patches of mustard flowers. The sun shone down upon him from a cloudless blue sky and the air was fresh and still. Three huge dogs lay about his feet. He whistled sharply to them and thej hastened into action, each rounding and driving the laggards to the flock. Moses found himself looking forward to the morrow, when he and the flock were to start their home journey to the folds of old Abraham Isreum. Moses was not looking forward to the drive, or to seeing old Abraham. No. The secret of all his sighs and smiles and heart-flutters was Abraham ' s beautiful daughter, Maria. H ad they not planned their wedding? His heart fluttered again as he recalled the incident. He sighed, shifted, whistled to the dogs, and walked on in the wake of the flock. Meanw hile the sun sank lower over the western hills. At dusk the youthful sheplierd commanded the dogs to bunch the sheep. When he had eaten, and had fed the dogs, he sat before the embers of his dying fire, as was his custom, and dreamed. It was dusk the next day when he drove the sheep into the folds of Abraham. He shut and bolted the gate and turned toward the glowing windows of Abra- ham Isreum ' s thick mud house. He strode boldly up to the door, and knocked. The murmur from the inside ceased, and Moses heard footsteps coming to the door. A stream of light poured from the doorway and a servant made his appearance, bidding Moses to come in and tell the news. He had been e.xpected. Moses ' eyes lighted on a stranger seated at the supper table with Abraham and Maria — and dangerously close to Maria, he thought with some discomfort; he sensed that something was wrong. Moses turned to Maria questioningly. Maria would not meet his gaze. It seemed to him that she paled a little. He looked hastily at Abraham. Maria looked also at her father pleadingly, whereupon Abraham glanced at her fiercely and turned to the stranger, saying: Moses Ur, meet Jacob Senacrib, my partner and my son- in-law. Moses ' heart stopped within him. His face blanched. His voice quavered, Pardon, sir — your partner — and — son-in-law? He questioned disbelievuigly. ■V ' es, my partner and my son-in-law — are those not happy words, Maria, dear? ' questioned Abraham with a gleam in his eye. But you are no doubt hungry. Ves, yes. You will surely stay for supper — , he added, to Moses. Patfc One Hundreil Nine -4 THE PLEIADES - 1 am very tired, sir, returned Moses hastily, and beg your leave, as I am not hungrv, ' lie managed to falter as he backed toward the door, nervously turninji and twisting his turban in his hands. Moses was nearly to the door when Maria uttered a cry and ran after him. Moses paused. Before he knew it she was crying softly on his shoulder. Moses . . . please forgive me. My father made me ... I love you — onU ou, and she burst into a fresh volley of tears. Sir, that is my daughter that you hold! Let her go and begone with you! cried the father angrily. Maria, Maria! he shouted. Before Moses tore himself away he choked words of forgiveness. I will try . . . to . . . forget. He ran into the darkness. No! he could not be running in darkness for — the sun wa- shining! Then Old Mose, the desert prospector, shuddered, opened his eyes, and stared in astonishment at the newly-risen sun. Another day had rolled ponderously around — another day for him to keep his promise to try . . . to . . . forget. — Henry C. Newson.

He has just graduated from the college in Mexico City and is under the impression that he is very collegiate. Peffffy Kenwood — Niece of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard. She is a typical American girl — full of pep and interested in everything. She is of about medium height, blond and has snappy blue eyes. This is her first trip to Mexico. Martinez, the butler— He is tall and a little stooped, with rather sneaky eyes. Tony. Tom. and Luis — Friends of Bob. Seene I (The action takes place in Mexico. The scene opens in the morning-room in the home of the Leonards. The room is tastefully furnished with wicker furniture and bright cushions. In the center back of the stage are two French doors. At one side, hangs a canary in a gilded cage. Chairs and a davenport are arranged around the room. Over one end of the davenport is thrown a Mexican rug. There are many little things about the room suggestive of Mexico. As the curtain rises, Mrs. Leonard is seen arranging flowers in a bowl on the table. She is humming a tune.) Bob— (He is dressed in a tenni costume and carries a racquet. He enters the room like a whirlwind.) Hi, mother, has Her Highness arri ed? Mrs. L. — No, Bob, her train isn ' t due for ten minutes yet. Jose has gone after her. Please, Bob, I wish you would not insist on speaking of ALirgaret as Her High- ness. Bob — Aw, mother, I can think; of lots worse names to call a girl like that than Her Highness. Mrs. L.— Why do you say, a girl like that ? i ' ou haven ' t seen Margaret since you were fifteen years old. She has probably changed a lot. Bob— Ai; right, all right, all right! I promise that I ' ll try my best not to call Mar- garet Her Highness. I suppose she ' ll have a fit if I call her Peggy. Well, I for one am going to call her Peggy. Mother, do 1 have to kiss her when she comes in? Mr. L. — (enters through door on left.) Kiss who when she comes in where? What is this world coming to? A young man asks mother if he has to kiss her when she comes in. Now. in my day Bob — (He has wandered over toward a window and is looking out.) Page One Hundred Eleven - k THE PLEIADES - 1 say, here ' s Her High — Mrs. L.— Bob! Boh Here ' s Marfiaret. Or, at least here ' s Jose with a earful of trunks and hat boxes, and if my eyes don ' t deceive me, there ' s a girl draped around them. She ' s pretty too, by cracky! I should have combed my hair after that tennis match. (He goes to the mirror and fusses with his tie.) Martinez — Mees Kenwood, she ees here. (Peggy enters without further ceremony. She is followed by Jose, bareh dis- tinguishable beneath suitcases, bags, and hat boxes.) Peggy Hello, everybody! (She goes over to her uncle and aunt who both kiss her.) Mrs. L — (holding her off.) Vhat an attractive young lady you have grown to be, Margaret. And to think you are to he our daughter for the whole summer! Peggy — (looking at Bob.) Here ' s the angel child, himself. And, oh, su grown up. Why, he ' s a gre-a-t big boy now. Isn ' t he going to kiss little Peggy hello? (Bob goes over to her and awkwardly kisses her. His awkwardness is not due to lack of experience, we are sure, hut rather to the fact that he feels the situa- tion is being taken out of his hands.) Mr. L. — (to the rescue.) Well, little lady, what do you think of Mexico? Pretty fine place, isn ' t it? Peggy — Nope, can ' t s.iy that it is. Where are all your wild bandits and cute revolu- tionists? Everything looks so tame. 1 expected at least one little revolution when I got here. ( Tliere is a general laugh at her expense.) Mrs. L — Well, dear, 1 suppose you will want to go up to your room now. I will have Rosa sent up. (She rings fur the maid.) We don ' t want you to be all tired out for tomorrow night. I am giving a party and inviting all the young folks. (Peggy and Mrs. Leonard leave the room.) Bob — So she wants a revolution, does she? Well (shrugs his shoulders), we aim to please. I ' ll bet if 1 tried, 1 could be the best little revolution-starter Mexico ever saw. Mr. L. — Well, son, what is it this time? Nothing foolish, I hope. Bob ' — Now, dad. I ' ve got a little sense. I won ' t do anything that will get me into trouble. ou know me . Mr. L — - ' V ' es, I know you. (ironically) (He seems thoughtful for a minute.) Bob, my boy, you ' re old enough now to share some of my responsibility. I might as well tell you that I have some important papers here at the house, very important. In fact, if the rebel forces got hold of these papers, it might mean the downfall of the government. I have heard from a reliable source that they are very anxious to get hold of them. Page Onr Hundred Twelve - i{ THE PLEIADES - Bob — Whew! Say, tlail, are you sure the papers are safe? Where do you keep them? Mr. L. — I ' m the only person who knows where the papers are, and that ' s the very reason I spoke to you, Bob. In case of fire, for instance, I might not be able to Siet to them. I ' ll feel a lot better to know that someone else knows how to get at them. (He goes to the wall and slides back a panel.) Now then, don ' t let it bother you, but just remember where they are. Bob — Okey, dad. Just watch me tear into anyone who tries to get those papers. Mr. L. — Well, I ' m off to the council. I ' ll be back for lunch. Bob — S lonf;, dad. Now for that cute little revolution. Let ' s see, there ' s Tom and Luis and the rest of the fellows. They ' d go over big as wild revolution. ists. (Bob is putting on a coat and smoothing up his hair preparatory to going out while he talks.) (Immediately upon Bob ' s leaving, a door opens and the butler enters.) Martinez — Ah! So that ees the leetle secret, eh? My government, yes, they be ver ' glad to get these certain papers. Me haul in much money. Yes, Martinez, he ver ' good spy. ( He goes to the hidden panel while he is talking and gets the papers. After carefully looking around, he goes to the telephone.) Numero 853, Calle Encinada. Esta bien, el rey he venido. A las cuatro y media en la Plaza del Sol. Pues, recuerdc usted o se muerte. (He hangs up the receiver and a diabolical e.xpression comes over his face.) These American peegs, we show them ! Scene II (The curtain rises on the scene of the party. It is the evening after the events of the first scene. There are many pretty girls in filmy dresses and men in tuxedos. A hidden orchestra is playing and a few couples are dancing when the curtain rises. In the company, there are a few who are obviously Spanish of the higher class, and the rest are Americans, sons and daughters of the United States officials in Mexico. The music stops and the crowd forms a group around Peggy.) Bob — I say, Peggy, this little party isn ' t so bad, is it? Even if a cute little revolu- tion seems to be lacking. (At this point one of the boys tries vainly to smother thei mirth that this last re- mark has provoked. A violent jab in the ribs by his neighbor on the left helps admirably.) Peggy — I can ' t see what ' s so funny about a revolution. I thought they were an every- day occurrence down here. Tom — (the one who was smitten with the giggles.) (Oratorically) Now there ' s something in what the little lady says. Wasn ' t it Shakespeare — or maybe it was John Hancock — who said that a revolution every twenty years was just what a country needed ? Now then, figure it out for your- selves. With a revolution every day, think what a whale of a country we ' d have. Page One Hundred Thirteen -4 THE PLEIADES - hy— wh — (A large palm descends across his mouth.) 1 ' ony — You ' ll have to pardon him, friends, he gets this way once in a while — quite frequently in fact. Now, Bob, as you were saying — Bob — Let ' s see, where was I ? Oh yes, I was just going to suggest that Peggy give us a dance. You didn ' t know that my little cousin was a second Pavlowa, did you? (There is an enthusiastic response to this. Voices — Please do, Miss Kenwood, etc.) Peggy — Indeed, and 1 won ' t be the goat. If 1 must dance. Bob has to sing for us. Bob — Well, I ' ll sing, if Tony and Luis will do their little stunt. Peggy — (chipping her hands.) Listen to me, everybody, let ' s have a vaudeville. (Again there is an enthusiastic acceptance of the idea. Peggy goes over to the or- chestra and requests a certain number, to which she dances. Bob then sings one or two popular numbers, at the end of which the butler appears.) ALirtinez — Deener, he ees served below. (. Ml leave but Boh and four of his friends, among whom are Tom and the giggler. ) Bob — (in a voice slightly above a stage whisper) Got everything ready, fellows? Tom — You bet your life, we have, ' ou should see our outlay of stage properties. Bob — Where are they? Tony — Oh, they ' re all well hidden. We stuck them inside the baby grand. Bob — Fine! Let ' s get our plan of attack all mapped out. When I say go we ' ll all charge through the window and start shooting. Did you get the blank cart- ridges, Tom ? Tom — Yes, and the bandanas to tie around our necks, too. Tony — You know, we really ought to have an execution. Bob — Yes, that would make it cuter. Luis — Whom shall we execute and how ? Bob — We ' d better use one of the servants for our victim. How about ALirtinez, the butler? (Tom has slipped over to the door and has assumed a listening attitude.) Bob — (In a high falsetto voice) Are they coming. Sister Ann? 1 om — You ' re dead right, they ' re coming. Here ' s where we do our little disappear- ance act. (As the boys leave, voices arc heard approaching. Couples come strolling in and seat themselves around the room. Peggy and one of the men enter the room.) Peggy — The rest of you don ' t know what you missed. We went out on the balcony and the moon is perfectly won — (A window is raised with a bang, and one of the desperadoes precipitates him- self into the room.

The lights all go out except one or two, which leaves the stage dim and shadowy. Knives flash together and pistols bark. Bandit No. 1 — (gruffly) Calla : Queden alii o se morre. (They pretend to search all the guests for their valuables.) (Through the shadowy doorway, the butler comes running. He is immediately set upon. He utters some oaths — a mixture of English and Spanish — but is over- come and securely bound. The bandits stand him up against the wall and form a line within good firing distance of him.) Bandit No. 2 — You have two minutes to live, amigo. Have you anything to sav? Peggy — (desperately plunging in) Oh, please don ' t shoot him. Here, take my pearls — (franticall ) take anything! Only, go! Bandit No. 2 — (Grabs the offered pearls and throws them on the floor, then pushes her away.) Bah! You offer pearls? He shall die. One minute left to you, senor. (Not a person stirs At this moment the door bursts open and four civil guards enter. Immediately the four revolutionists slink toward the window.) Captain of the Guards — Here, you stay right where you are. Everybody here is under arrest. (To the revolutionists .) And what, may I ask, are you doing here ? Bob — (snatching. off his mask, hat, etc.) N-nothing, that is, not so ' s you could notice it. Captain — Hm, so I should judge. Well (gives him a push), out of the way, Sonny, we ' ve got more important business to look after. The guards are unbinding Martinez, who makes a dash for the door. One of them drags him back, struggling. The captain thrusts a pistol against his back.) Captain — One moment, one moment. Sorry to detain you, but you ' re just the man the government ' s been after for two months now. Just hand over the papers. I think we can make better use of them than you can. (Martinez declines to give up the papers. He sullenly stands there.) Captain — (motioning to one of the guards) All right, frisk him then. (The guard searches him until he finds the papers. He hands them over to the captain who pockets them.) (At this point, Mr. Leonard enters the room.) Mr. L. — What ' s all the noise? (Goes over to the captain.) What ' s the matter. Captain ? Captain — Sorry to disturb your party, Mr. Leonard, (glancing around) I guess it ' s a party. But for two months now we ' ve been trying to trace a certain rebel spy. He is a regular fiend for finding important government papers. We found these on him. (Shows him the papers.) Page t)iif Hundred Fifteen - THE PL, E 1 A D E S - Mr. L — Found those papers on him! Captain — ' es, and — by the way, docs this (motions toward Bob) belong to you? Mr. L. — Why — yes, he ' s my son. Captain — (laughing) 1 thought 1 recognized him. Well, he and his friends here (with a gesture that takes in all four of the revolutionists ) are in line for a nice little reward. The government has offered five hundred pesos for the capture of this spy. They had him all hound and gagged and stuck up against the wall when we came in. And then what did the modest young heroes try to do, but sneak away. (He turns to the other guards.) Well, men, I guess we ' ll be on our way. Here (tosses the handcuffs to one of the guards), slip these on him. (The guards all leave, accompanied by Martinez.) Bob — (turning to Peggy) Hope you ' re satisfied, Peggy. This cute little revolution was all for your benefit. Peggy — (laughing) Oh, this is priceless! And to think that he had only one minute to live. Fiige One Hiiiiilred Sixteen Jl3rHLETI4L ■ THE PLI ' LI AD l ' :S ■ SuDiDKiry of 1Q28 Season Fiillcrton, fa; H ' jntin;:ton Park, 6 Early in the season Coach Johnson scheduled a game with Huntington Park. The game was full of thrills as both teams fumbled often, but neither seemed to have the advantage. However, this game showed where the team ' s weaknesses were and most ot them were overcome before the Orange League schedule began. Fullerton, 19; Excelsior, The first league game was with E.xcelsior, who brought a strong team to Fullerton. Although the Indians were able to score three touchdowns, the team from Excelsior knew how to light and was not beaten until the Hnal gun. Fullerton, 42 ; Anaheim, 6 Everyone thought Anaheim would give our boys a hard fight but the Reds rushed them off their feet on the first kick-off and were on the offense throughout the entire struggle. The Colonists tried hard, but were unable to stem the powerful running attack displayed by the Fullerton team, who showed the results of the effective coaching they were receiving. Fullerton, 30 ; Garden Grove, Garden Grove wasn ' t supposed to have much of a team but they showed that they knew how to play football by holding the Indians several times near the goal line. After a safe score was made, almost all the subs were given a chance and they all Coach Johnson showed up well, as tliey were able to score on Garden Grove. Fullerton, 12 ; Brea, The game with Brea turned out to be one of the hardest games of the year. Brea was fortunate in securing Shorty Smith as coach this year and he turned out one of the best teams in the Orange League. Fullerton met the Oilers on their own field at Brea, October 26. After a hard fought game, the Indians emerged ictors, having crossed Brea ' s goal line twice. Fullerton, 26 ; South Pasadena, Fullerton had no game scheduled for November 2 and was able to play South Pasadena on our own field. Our team was minus the services of first string players and was thus somewhat weakened for the contest. However, we came out on the long end of the score and thus remained undefeated. Fullerton, 29 ; San Diego Army and Navy Academy, The following week the Army and Navy boys came up to try their luck against the undefeated Indian aggregation, but they were as unsuccessful as their predecessors. Page One Hifiidred Seventeen -• THE PLEIADES) 6 ; «siu:. ; i •i T •  ■■■ Pagt One Hundred Eighteen -• TH E PLEIADES ) - They were completely outplayed throufzhout the game, although they showed several flashes of real football. Fullerton, 26; Huntington Beach, Coach Johnson had his team all primed for the Beach boys and every player was rarin ' to go on the day of the game, November 8. A large crowd turned out to see the game, as predictions were that the two teams were very evenly matched. However, after Hershy and our other backs had made a few gallops around their ends for long gains, our opponents became discouraged and were soon out of running, as the score at the end of the fray showed. Fullerton, 2 ; Covina, 33 The only mar on the Redshirts ' record was the encounter with Covina which took place on the latter ' s gridiron during the flu epidemic, which took more than its share of the Fullerton squad. In fact, almost half of the first string were unable to play. The Indians began by taking the ball far into the Covina territory, featuring Orville Burns on brilliant end runs. However, lack of reserve strength began to show, and the result was that the Fullerton team was overwhelmingly defeated. Fullerton. 13; Orange, Orange developed some excellent defensive football. On various occasions flashes of offensive playing were exhibited, however, and on several occasions Orange advanced the ball near the Fullerton ' s goal, having possession of the ball as a result of fumbles on the part of Fullerton. Our team really didn ' t play up to par, lacking the steady, consistent touchdowns, to cinch the game and the Orange County championship without the mar of one league defeat.

Although Coach Lewis had a turnout of about forty boys, most of his material was green. However, he gradually developed his s iuad into a smooth functioning machine and it became one of the strongest teams in the Orange League, losing only tivo games.

Although the team lost a few of the first practice games, they devel. oped into a real team and W ' on the league championship, as is their custom. Coach Uowden spent much time with the team and was largely responsible for its success. The C lettermen were : Captain Joe Crooke, Center. Joe set a fighting example that led his team to victory. Ronald Roeschlaub, Fullback. Ronald w-as a dependable player who knew how to throw a pass where it was supposed to go. Joe Muro, Halfback.

Coach Purdy, however, turned out a well balanced team that showed up well in all the meets. FuUerton placed second in the Chai?ey Novice Invitational meet. Coach Purdj ' expected one team to place first, but we lost to Santa Ana by two points, due to the absence of two of our best men who had been counted on for eight points. Fullerton placed third in the Orange County meet, and took second in the Orange County Novice meet. Willie McVeigh and Orville Burns ran the sprints and broad-jumped. McVeigh also ran the 440 in the county meet, winning it in record time. Burns also high- jumped. Bill Keele ran the mile and John Kewish ran the 880. Don Pierotti came out late and surprised everybody by winning the discus throw both at Chafiey and the county meet. Charles Thompson threw the discus. Bob Fry and Joe Darracq were our best nets in the shot. They also threw the discus. Darracq, who is a Sophomore, will probably be the best weight man in the conference in a year or two. Wayne Cogcr, Raymond Clever, and Bob Williams ran the hurdles. Coger ran the lows and Williams and Clever the high sticks until the the last few meets when they tried the lows too.

Class A Basketball FuLLERTON Uxiox HiGH ScHOOL this year had one of the best basketball teams in years in spite of the fact that there were no lettermen to begin the season, as there was no Class A basketball last year. However, Coach Lewis was fortunate in Iiaving most ot last ear ' s championship Class B team, which formed a nucleus for another championship squad. Our hardest };ames in the league were with Orange and Tustin. Tustin had an experienced team and was supposed to be the best in the league. In both games with the Farmers, the Indians were able to win by fairly large scores, but only after a hard fight. In the first half of both games, neither team had the advantage, but in the second half the Redshirts got started and ran up a big score. Orange proved to be our hardest rival, as FuUerton won the first game by one point and Orange won the second by the same margin. This was the last impcutant game in our division of the league. Pnge One Hunched Tioenty-seven -4 THE PLEIADES ' As Brea-Olinda had won the other division of the league, the Indians met them in a two-game play-off. Brea-Olinda had an aggregation composed almost entirely of Seniors and had won games from some of the best teams in the county, including ' I ' ustin. Kullcrton met them in the first game on our own floor and won after a hard tussle. The second encounter was practically a repetition of the first, with the Brea boys going to pieces in the second half. Thus the Orange League pennant was cinched for FuUerton. Altliough there was no official championship play-off for the Southern California championship, FuUerton was scheduled to meet Long Beach, winners of the Coast League and considered the best team in the south. The two teams clashed on a neutral court at Huntington Park. During the first half the Reds worked hard and held the Jackrabbits to a three-point lead, but in the second frame Long Beach showed its superiority and had things pretty much its own way, as they had a great deal of reserve strength, using three or four complete teams during the last quarter. Although the game ended in a win for Long; Beach, the FuUerton boys won the admiration of everyone by their gameness and fight. Coach Lewis had a successful season this year, and is responsible for a great part of the success. He should have another good team next year, as all of his letter- men except two. Captain Willard Hershberger and Don Pierotti, return next year. The lettermen this year were: Captain Willard Hershberger, Floyd Vaughan, Wendell Pickens, John McEl- haney, Don Pierotti, Archie Carpenter, Clarence Stull, Leonard Maxwell. Other players who did not win letters, but who deserve much of the credit for the success of the team were: Glenn Weilin, Jack Hatfield. Page Otic Hundred Twenty-eight - «j{ T H E PI. E I A D I-: S ■■ Class B Basketball The Class B Squad was a credit to the school. Getting off to a slow start, Coach Johnson ' s men lost their first league set-to with Huntington Beach, but won all of the remaining games and, with that, the championship of our division of the Orange League. Brea and Downey were tied for the championship of the other division of the league, but Downey finally won, and met Fullcrton. Although Downey had a fairly good team, the Indians easily defeated them, and thus brought another pennant to F. U. H. S. The following week Fullerton met Santa Ana in an unofficial playoff on the I ustin floor, but the Redshirts could not get started and were beaten after a game fight. Coach Johnson should receive a great deal of credit for turning out another championship team. He had little material with which to develop a team, but with lots of work, he developed one of the niftiest squads in Southern California. The B lettermen were: Captain Elwood Steele, Melvin McGaughy, Burton Goodrich, Bob -AlcCormack, Roy Reno, ' erne Thomas, Elmer Pryor, Shelvine Mitcheli.

The team was handicapped by having very little experience, and much time was spent in practicing. Coach Goodsell proved to be a line coach and soon had the players handling the ball like veterans. Tlicre was no harder fighting team in the league, and FuUerton can he proud of them, for they went up against teams that had a great deal more material. They played good basketball in all their games, but were unable to win enough games to gain the pennant. Coach Goodsell should be congratulated on the success of the season, as this was his first year as coach here. Next year he is expected to produce a team tliat will go through the league unconquered. C lettermen were: Captain Joe Croooke, Ronald Roeschlaub, Cyrus Morris, Carl Stewart, Emery Jordan, Billie Rodgers, Lewis Cate. D Basketball This group includes the smallest boys in the school, but they were not too small to play real basketball, as everyone who saw them in action will testify. The coach of this team is always greatly handicapped as he receives men who have had little or no experience and is expected to dvelop them into a winning squad. Coach Weightman handled this job very efficiently this year, in spite of the fact that the D ' s did not top the league. Like the C squad, this group did not have much experienced material, and the coach was forced to spend much time in teaching the players how to handle the ball. By the end of the season this team was as smooth running as any aggregation in the school as a result of great effort on the part of the players as well as the coach, who spent much of his time with the boys, teaching them the fundamentals of the game. Next year we hope that the team will have an even more successful season, and come home with the trophy. The players who received letters were : Captain Russell Chambers, Ben Switzler, Claude Cate, Beryl Abbott, Clifford Berkeley, Bob Goodrich, Gerald Lance, Don Baird.

The team got a ?ood start by running up twelve wins before it met defeat. Although no league games have been plaied at this writing, if the fellows keep up their fight and determination to win, it is certain they will have another championship. Lnder tlie capable leadership of Captain Willard Hershberger, the boys have met and conquered many of the best teams in Southern California. The players are hitting like big leaguers, with several 400 per cent and over. The players and their positions are: Catcher, Hershberger; Pitchers, Hemus, .McElheney, Hatfield; First Base, Archie Carpenter; Second Base, Burton Goodrich; Third Base, Bill Peterson; Short Stop, Arkie Vaughn; Left Field, Clarence Stull ; Center Field, Wendell Pickens ; Right Field, Dick Joyce. Coach Johnson had much to do with the develoyment of the team this season and is fortunate in having many of the lettcrmen back next year. These players, together with the men from this year ' s second team, should be of much assistance in forming another championship team. Second Team Baseball One of the hrincifai. reasons wh our varsity baseball teams are always successful is that there is an abundance of material among the players developed each year on the second team. Coach Lewis has always turned out winning baseball teams and this year is no exception. The season is not over yet, but the team has met and beaten many varsity teams of other schools. Players on this team are: Howard Basten, Ed Thompson, Ronald Roeschlaub, George Egge, Leonard Maxwell, Paul Herbst, Shelvine Mitchell, Melvin McGaughy, Joe Muro.

The team is a stronj; one, composed of three veterans and ci(;ht new re- cruits. Coach Lodge expects the team to go through the league for an easy win, the only rivals for this honor being perhaps Anaheim, or Tustin. No. 1 position is held by Bob Allen in virtue of the fact that he won it last year and no one has been able to win it from him. He went undefeated last year and expects to do so again this year. No. 2 is Elmer Wales, a star in his own right, a two-time Handicap cup winner. Elmer makes Allen step for his position. No. 3 is Carl Stewart, an excellent player and one who works hard to win. No. 4 is a position that is split up by the competition of Joe Crooke, Bud Gardner, and Bob Williams, three hard workers who make their opponents right. 1st doubles are Frances Kuntz and Dan Waters, an excellent pair who cooper- ate witn success and win a point more times than they lose one. 2nd doubles are the tennis twins, Robert and Gerald Lance, who hold down hrst doubles when the Waters-Kuntz duo weakens. Ojai, Dudley Cup, and Orange High School invitational tournaments will with- out a doubt be represented by Captain Bob Allen and rirst mate Elmer Wales, two fellows who earn their position. Golf Team This is the second ve.ar in the life of the F. U. H. S. golf team. The rirst team of divoteers, organized in 1928, worked up to the semi-rinals of Southern California competition, to place FuUerton on the golf map. Although this year ' s team is not so good as that of last year. Coach Lodge is striving to make a winning team out of practically new material. Captain Bill Roberts and his brother Cecil Roberts, hold down the rirst two posi- tions and give all their opponents a real run for their money. They shoot in 78-84 range. Bob Allen, third in line, rights to the last hole to win or lose his match. He hits around 89. The next three players, Jake Everett, Sonny Rodger, and Elmer Pryor tap the white pelota around the course in the low nineties and frequently show the way to their opponents.

Seven club and ten high school teams were played this year. We won only one club game, but the stifter competition from those teams taught us many tricks and plays that were valuable in high school games. The ten high schools that were played comprised practically all the schools in Southern California who had teams. We won eigiu of these games, making 101 points to our opponents ' 23 in the ten games, riie team felt proud of this record, but is out next year to win all the high school games. The team also played seven strong club teams, including: L. A. Athletic Club, Pacific Coast Club, Hollywood Athletic Club, Los Angeles Y. M. C. A., U. C. L. A., and the Venice Plunge Club. Also at various times the players competed against four players on last year ' s United States Olyn.pic Water Polo team.

To hold this position, a girl must have earned at least three hundred points and must ba an active participant in the sport of which she is manager. Her duties are to make the game schedule, announce the games, secure officials, turn in paints for winning teams and perform any duties connected with all the teams as a whole. Altiiough it is quite an honor to be chosen such a leader, it is a task that takes much time, and the efforts of the girls are highly appreciated.

The flu epidemic, coming in the middle of the game schedule, lent suspense to everything, because no one ever knew how many players could appear for a game. Eacli team played two games with the other class teams. All the games were e.xciting, with very close scores. At the end of the season the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors were in a triple tie. It fell to the Juniors and Seniors to play off the tie first, and the Seniors won only by exerting themselves to the utmost. This left them and the Sophomores rivals. These two teams met for the final game, which started out with a bang, first one team scoring, then the other, making it a tie at the end of the quarter and again at the half. Then the Sophomores showed the strain of the speed with which they had been playing, and the Seniors began piling up their score until they had won by quite a lead. When the excitement had subsided, the teams and G. A. A. members had a pot- luck dinner in the gym. Afterward each girl received a basketball tally and found her place at any of the various tables where games were played. The basketball play-day was held at Fullerton. The Sophomores, Juniors, Seniors and one Freshman team were victorious. The other Freshman team lost by a close score.

The individuality of the game seems to appeal to many girls. Two games were scheduled this year between each high school team, and one be- tween each of those teams and the Junior College squads. Rain tried to interrupt the schedule, but only succeeded in postponing one or two games. After a series of snappy games the Sophomores were tied with the Seniors. The final play-off, one Friday afternoon, was a fast, peppy game with the girls tearing up and down the fieldi continually. It ended 1-0 in the Seniors ' favor thanks to the able leadership of Velva Sullivan and the co-operation of all the girls. Immediately after the game all the hockey teams went up on the Reservoir hill and had a great time at a wienie roast. Afterwards the girls all sat around a huge bonfire smging and yelling. This was followed by a tug-o ' -war which was rather disastrous for some. Later everyone piled on a few cars and returned to the gym where many enjoyed themselves even more by going in swimming. At the hockey play-dav, held at Anaheim, Fullerton came off with inany honors, the Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors winning and the Frosh tieing their game. Players on the Senior team were: Helen Lang, Margaret Foist, Isabel Plummer, Evelyn Hammond, Marion iVIars- den, Henrietta Heemstra, Beulah Daniels, Ruth Mcttler, Cornelia Randall, Bertha Smith, Velva Sullivan, Hyacinth Hetebrink, Jean Miller.

Every girl in school was encouraged to turn out for track. If she could run, she entered the 50, 75, or 100-yard dashes, the 60-yard hurdles, and the relay. Others tried out for high jumps and the hop, step and jump. Girls who had plenty of muscle and a good arm came out for the baseball throw. Archery was another popular event. Three interclass track meets were held this season. The first meet was held on April 24, with the Sophomores as champions, by a score of 42. The second and their track meets have not yet been held as the Annual goes to press, but the Sophomores have the best turn out for track, and, so far, it looks as though they would be champions for the season of ' 29. Page One Hundred Forty-seven - THE PLEl AD lis K Varsity Tenuis With the close of hockey season, tennis, which had had a brief recess, started, this time as varsity tennis instead of interclass. Much good material showed up and sev- eral tournaments had to be held before it was possible to pick the team. Every year F. U. H. S. girls have had a good team, and so far, this year ' s team has been no excep- tion. In addition to Orange County schools the varsity team played many of the larger nearby schools, including Glendale, Huntington Park high schools and Marl- borough Girls ' School, Los Angeles. Girls who made the team are: Singles: Hazel Smalley, Eleanor Otto, Lillian Shelton, Frances Priddy, Thelma Stewart, Nira Dunham, and Ardis Holve. Doubles: Mildred Krcbs and Lucille Williams, Velva Sullivan and Hyacinth Hetebrink, Alma Clark and Anna Lupton. Page One Hitiulred Forty-eight J -4 THE P L. F.

I don ' t say that all lawyers arc crooked, said the doctor, but you ' ll have to admit that your profession doesn ' t make anjzels of men. No, retorted the attorney, you doctors have the best of us there.  « Wife: Now, dear, here ' s the doctor to see you. Merchant Prince: Send him away and get the undertaker! ou know I never deal u itii middlemen!  Daughter (having just received a beautiful set of mink skins from her father): What 1 don ' t see is how such wonderful furs can come from a low, sneaking little beast. i ' atner: 1 don ' t ask for thanks, dear. But 1 really insist on respect. Here ' s a snapshot of my girl at the beach. Snapshot: why, that ' s an exposure. ■ ■ Customer: Do you make any reduction for those in the same line of business? Waiter: ' V ' es, are you a restaurant keeper? Customer: No — I ' m a burglar. Teacher: Define trickle. Hoy: ' i ' o run slowly. Teacher: Define anecdote. Boy: A short, funny tale. Teacher: Use both words in a sentence. Boy: The dog trickled down the street with a can tied to his anecdote. Prof.: Do yiiu know where shingles were Hrst used? Krosh.: I ' d rather not tell. ■:::■ t ■:!? In a western town the attorney for a gas company was making an address. Think of the good the gas company has done, he said. If I were permitted a pun 1 would say, in the words of the poet, ' Honor the Light Brigade ' . Where- upon a shrill voice came from the rear: Oh, what a charge they made! 1 ou must not grieve, said the young minister to the woman whose husband hat just died. T he body that lies here is not your husband. It is merely a husk, ar empty shell — the nut has gone to heaven. Hubby: Which is the most important — a man ' s wife or his trousers? Chubbv : Well, there are lots of places a man can go without his wife. Piiffr One Hundred F ' fly-:; x 1 - THE PLEIADES ¥- My wife says that were I to die she would always remain a widow. Evidently, remarked the girl, she thinks there isn ' t another man in the world like you. On the contrary, he responded, she fears that there is, and that she might get him. Will ou hab some pic, suh? Is it compulsory? No, suh, it am raspberry. The bashful petty officer was on leave and was having a liard time making con- versation. I suppose you ' ve been in the navy so long, you ' re accustomed thoroughly to ' sea legs ' , she suggested. With much confusion he said, I wasn ' t looking at em at all. . Ir. Jones: Good night! Out of gas right here in the middle of traffic. .Mrs. Jones: Well, you can ' t stop for that now! Here comes a cop. Why, dad, this is roast beef, exclaimed Willie at dinner one evening when a guest of honor was present. Of course, said his father, what of that? Why, you told mother this morning that you were going to bring an old mutton- head home for dinner this evening. I ' ou say you come from Detroit, said the doctor to his fellow-passenger. That ' s where they make automobiles isn ' t it? Sure, replied the American. We make other things in Detroit too. Yes, I know, retorted the doctor, I ' ve ridden in em. Percy: Pardon me, but do you serve hard-boiled eggs? Waitress: Sure thing, old dear, as long as they behave themselves.
