ARCHER ONCE UPON A TIME there were two schools, Los Angeles Pacific College and Cali- fornia College, each with a young and verdant High School Freshman Class. So, .Way back in 1923, the High School Seniors used to encourage our growth by saying, 'Cheer upl Look at the oak tree: once it was a little nut. Since then we've grown and grown, perhaps not always in numbers but in ways that WCre more important. Three years passed swiftly, three years that were packed to the brim with fun and frolic, lessons, and the more serious things of life, Then fine day there came a great event in the history of the two schools-the merger. So ln the fall of 1926 the two classes trudged up the same hill together, and on June third of the following year were graduated the twenty-nine loyal, ambitious mem- bers of the class of '27. Then came College days, and back we trooped to the halls of L. A. P. C., greatly diminished in numbers, but with our faces set forward, and a determination in our hearts to gain the benefits of a college education. These were busy days, but happy ones, getting adjusted to new systems, surroundings, and students in our col- lege life. Before we realized it, another year had slipped swiftly by, and we were returning for our last year in L. A. P. C. We found that a good many of our members had df0PPCd by the wayside, but rejoiced to see that new ones were rising up to take their place. This year has been a pleasant one, occupied with many and varied activities. Dur- ing the first semester the first big event was our evening with the College Freshmen Spent at Baker's cabin in Arroyo Seco Canyon. This was followed by an early morn- ing breakfast in Garfield Park, South Pasadena. In early December occurred the most exciting event in the College Sophomore's calendar-the skip! We had the most f the school, and spent a never-to-be-forgotten week-end at Pine Cove Lodge near Idyllwild in the San Jacinto Mountains. The second semester was one of activity also, although there were not many class gather- ings, and culminated in the Commercement exercises and the celebration of the twenty-fifth birthday of our school.
