WAIQIQEN AVEIQ Superinlenclcnl dv LLJQMM HE THEME chosen for the i933 Monrovian is indeed intriguing. lt suggests orderly change, adaptation, and systematic development. With no straining of the figure of speech, the lives of people, nations, civiliza- tions, and of the world itself, may be likened in their several phases to the changing seasons of the year. Most individuals as well as most nations aspire toward maturity, but having approached that stage, face the danger of autumnal decline and wintry numbness. To reach real maturity and to avoid as long as possible mental and emotional decline should be the aim of every thoughtful person. The ability to adjust oneself in an orderly and dignified manner to changing conditions and to new environments is the chief purpose of educa- tion and the prime necessity for growth. While we would not minimize the importance of mastery of the fundamental processes and content of the subjects studied in our schools, we feel sure that growth and adaptation- what you become-will be vitally more important to you and to the world than what you acquire. We congratulate the graduating class upon the completion of their work with us and of the rest of the students upon the successful conclusion of another school term. May the successive seasons bring to all of us stimulat- ing variety of experience, orderly growth, and the ability to adjust ourselves in a constructive way to our environment. l.

THE MONROVlANa Q GlflS' l-OGDUC Play Armistice Day Play WITH Dorothy Mary McCune and Coretta Graham in the leading roles of shy spinster and brave explorer, respectively, the Girls' League pre- sented its annual play, The Widow in Green, on November l8, The plot depicted the complicated love affair of an American maiden living in a gossipy English village. The cast included Dorothy Mc- Cune, Coretta Graham, Mary Marsh, Marion Felberg, Aileen Leslie, Ger- aldine Behm, Marie Overton, Helen Lockwood, josephineWilIiams, Helen Wilson, and Mariory Coleman, Paying tribute to participants in the World War, one of the most im- pressive programs of the year was given in an assembly on November lO in celebration of Armistice Day. The program was featured by an impressive Pageant, presented by the dramatics classes under the direction of Mrs. Doty. The cast included Florita Kirk, Ted Ford, Alec Ball, Garnet Brower, Robert Graves, Lor- ing Day, Robert Chess, Helen Leon- ard, Bette M. Elliot, George Clayton, Billy Marshall, and Norbert Bund- schuh. g11, ,'g LTHE Voculionol Depowlmenls DOMESTIC SCIENCE The purpose of the domestic sci- ence course is primarily to fit girls to be good home-makers, but it also opens up unlimited fields for the feminine wage-earner. The clothing section of this course, in charge of Miss Grace Russell, is equipped with modern sewing machines, a fitting room, and cutting tables. In the cook- ing section, of which Mrs. Grace Fan- ning is head, are ten up-to-date gas and electric ranges, an electric refrig- erator, and a fully equipped dining room, aside from various incidental apparatus. The weaving room con- tains looms on which the girls fash- ion colorful scarfs, rugs, and purses. Miss Russell is the teacher. In addition to these courses which are valuable for the practical experi- ence which they afford, there is a course in home-making which all high school girls are now required to take in order to graduate. MANUAL TRAINING The manual training department includes the machine, wood, and printing shops, in charge of Mr. Hester, Mr. Parmalee, and Mr. Goodwin, respectively. Here the boys get practical experience in repairing machinery, constructing model air- planes and various articles of furni- ture, and in setting type. In addition to the Wildcat, the printing students put out programs for assemblies and public performances. In the machine shop are engines, motors, steel lathes, forges, and spe- cial parts for the aeronautics work. The wood shop is equipped with saws - plain, band, and circular-wood lathes, and planers. The print shop has boxes of type, presses, and vari- ous other machines. COMMERCIAL The commercial department, since it prepares so many students for the business world, is very complete. In the typing room, there are about thirty typewriters-in the bookkeep- ing room, a model bank complete with money and checks. For stenog- raphy, commercial blank books are bought to be filled with dictation. Miss Mary Thorne, Mr. Roland Watenpaugh, Mr. E. E. West, and Mrs. Gertrude Morgan are commer- cial teachers. MECHANICAL DRAWING The mechanical drawing room is fully equipped for future draftsmen with drawing tables and complete blue-print apparatus. Here, the boys make various miniature plans and get practice for the pattern-making pro- fession. Mr. Roy Eller is the instruc- tor. AGRICULTURE The course in agriculture is not only beneficial to the students taking it but is also helpful to the school, since the students of this department have planted and are planting most of the shrubs on the school campus. These students also take care of the chapparell. The course in agriculture includes the study of all kinds of plants and the general study of the agricultural system used in Monrovia. Mr. Wesley Steiner is the teacher.

One could say, how- ever, that most of the power of the machine could be attributed to that flashy, compact bundle of lightning, Bill Presley. Scoring all of the thirty points chalked up by the team dur- ing league competition, this spectac- ular triple-threat flash got quite a name for himself in the league circles. The Cats started the league season on the wrong foot, as they were given a complete shut-out by the Whittier Cardinals, who dumped the locals to a bitter 20-O defeat. The cats re- covered in time from such brutal treatment to come through by the skin of their teeth, winning a breath- taking 3-O victory over Hoover. The Wildcats suffered a relapse in the next week's encounter when the South Pasadena Tigers tramped rude- ly on the Feline toes with a 7-6 win. Ashamed of such treatment, Mon- rovia took out its spirit of revenge on the hapless Burbank team Zi-8. The traditional battle with Tech, which closed the 1932 season, re- sulted in a heartbreaking loss as that lean Terrier, George Anderson, romped ninety yards for the sole score to carry the bacon back to the Terrier kennel. The lettermen were Ford, Hunt, Knoble, Larson, H. Mecke, U. Mecke, Presley, Schallert, Stackhouse, St. Clair, Sveinson, Thur- man, Tucker, Way, Wilson, Captain Olson, and Manager Boyd. CLASS B FOOTBALL The Kittens, guided by the ex- tremely capable hand of R. V. Wat- enpaugh, managed to steer through a difficult season by walloping two schools and tying Muir Tech, Foot- hill League champions, receiving only two defeats in return. These two defeats came at the first of the season with Whittier winning 7-O on a fluke, and Hoover following suit by taming the Kittens l8-O. This aroused the ire of the frenzied Cats, who swamped South Pasadena l8-O, and then ran rampant over the cowed Burbank Pups with a 27-O victory. The now glorified Cats finished their season by tying the erstwhile un- defeated Tech Terriers O-O in a hec- tic struggle. The lettermen were Mc- Kee, Mclntire, Morimoto, Myers Sandlin, D. Scott, R. Scott, Smith, Tsuneishi, Valenzuela, Baker, Dollar Day, Eller, Evans, Ellis, Hashimoto, Hicks, Hounihan, Irons, Livernash, and Captain Bundschuh. r 9 CROSS COUNTRY With a small band of five Spartans turning out for cross-country, Coach Murray's efforts to turn out a win- ning team went for naught, as the Monrovia harriers fell before the stal- wart leather-lungers from the other schools, and ended at the bottom of the loop with nary a victory. The lettermen were Roine, Salisbury, Haynes, Moeller, and Captain,Keens.

For four years we have been accustomed to meet them in the halls, in the classroom, on the ath- letic field or, perchance, in the office. We trust their association with us has been profitable to them and, as they go forward to their new adven- ture, whether it be in college, in business or in the home, our best wishes go with them. Commencement again and another milestone is passed. This year has been one of triumphs and failures as all years will be, but both successes and failures have their value from an educational viewpoint and it is my hope that our mistakes and achieve- ments of this year will spur us on to greater effort in the year just ahead. Best wishes for a happy vacation. A. K. WILSON. To Our High School Students:- The nations of the world are today learning slowly and painfully that neither individual nor national self- ishness really pays, and that only by uniting in efforts that shall be for the good of all can they hope to pull the world out of the morass of confusion into which it has fallen. How can you, our future citizens, learn this truth here and now? You can pre- pare your lessons thoroughly, not for the sake of grades, but that you may become intelligent citizens. You can cheerfully observe our rules so that the progress of our school shall not be hindered. You can help to pre- serve the beauty of our buildings and grounds and so prevent unnecessary expense. You can fulfill any special duty or office bestowed upon you, not for your own glory, but for the glory and honor of the entire student body. Yours for co-operation, 'GRACE A. osBoRNE. fffx f I Y 1 . . .yi ,. WH! , la: w. N 2.6, .

Smith, Bill MCC-owan, Nor- bert Bundschuh, Ted Ford, Alec Ball, George Evans, Charles Renshaw, Charles Wetmore, Robert Boyd, Dwight Kelly, and Loring Day. X-NIU! Dltllj Why the Chimes Rang, an im- pressive one-act play, was the high- light of a Christmas program given before the student body on December l5. The same play, with a different cast, was given in the evening for the general public. The casts were made up of mem- bers of Mrs. Doty's dramatics classes. Members of the Nine and Nine acted as the choir in the cathedral scene and furnished the music for the production. THE MONROVIAN i WINTEIQ CLASS CONTRARY to the opinion that the mid-term graduating class is rather insignificant, this year's class in- cluded several persons outstanding for their various activities. joe Svein- son received the T. C. Rogers award, which is given each year to the senior boy who has the best athletic, citi- zenship, and scholarship record. Sev- eral of the other boys also gained recognition for themselves by their athletic and dramatic prowess. Anna Karp, who sang at the Associated Students' meetings several times and who had the feminine lead in the operetta, Pickles, also was a mem- ber of this class. One of the first duties of the class after its organization was the selec- tion of a class ring or pin. After con- siderable discussion, the class decided in favor of a handsome gold mono- gram ring. The announcements for graduation were printed at the school print shop, largely under the direc- tion of joe Sveinson. The usual custom of senior ditch- day was observed by the class at Ice- house Canyon, january l2. What with toboganning, dancing, snow- balling, and theexpected number of casualties, everyone managed to have a good time. At the commencement exercises Thursday morning, january 26, twen- ty graduates received their diplomas. Reverend Canon E. B. Smith offered the invocation.

PRESlDENT'S MESSAGE lT CERTAINLY has been a pleasure to have served as Student Body Presi- dent for the first semester. Through the splendid cooperation of the stu- dents, the student body affairs were successful. We are facing a critical period in the history of school admin- istration, and my greatest hope is that student affairs will be able to con- tinue as they have in the past. l extend my best wishes to next year's president, and I hope that he will have a successful year. I always will cherish the memory of my senior year in high school as one of my fondest. I wish to extend my best wishes to my fellow class- mates, and l hope that they will be successful in whatever they endeavor to do. -Norbert Bundschuh.

The dance was open to students of Monrovia and Muir Tech High Schools, and each school was well represented. Con- trary to custom, alumni members were not admitted. The dance was a success and proved one of the high- lights of the l932-33 school year. f-.f.x's ln the second quarter, besides its regular meetings, the Monrovia Hi-Y was host to the San Gabriel valley Hi-Y Conference, held a wiener bake in the San Gabriel wash, and had a day's outing in the snow at Camp Baldy. The highlight of the second quarter was Girls' Night. Members brought their girl friends and after supper took them to a show. .-...Q During the winter months, the Circle M held several business meet- ings. Members, along with those of the G.A.A., attended the play-day at South Pasadena in February. Since all the members also belong to the G.A.A., the Circle M takes part in practically all the activities of the G.A.A. The Circle M, however, is a restricted organization and, at the present time, has only fourteen members. Mrs. Yenney is the adviser. -aa aa aa T H E M o N R o v I A N 4 - A A large representation from the C-.A.A. attended the play day at South Pasadena High School in Feb- ruary.

With Alice Gregory as manager of the winter sport, basketball, the cus- tomary period and class games were played off. A spread was held after the last game. For the junior Hi-Y, the second quarter was more eventful. Besides the regular meetings, the club held a joint meeting with the Arcadia lun- ior Hi-Y, devoted one night to boxing matches between the boys, and had as a speaker, Dink Walker, former Monrovia coach. As a fitting close to the semester's activities, a banquet was held january 26, at the home of Mr. Beckner, the club's adviser. l Hi-Y . Jr. Hi-Y N4 usicol Aclivilief T HE Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs and Nines, under the direction of Mrs. Frances Potts and Mr. Chester Van Hellen, have completed a most suc- cessful and busy year.

The combined glee clubs and cho- rus gave a musical prologue for the Christmas pageant, Why the Chimes Rang, at an assembly December 15, and again at night for the public. The prologue consisted of appropriate Christmas songs by the glee clubs and several well known carols by the glee clubs and chorus combined. The cathedral choir in the play was com- posed ofthe Girls' and Boys' Nines. ln March, the Boys' and Girls' Nines presented a program at the Frances De Paw School for Spanish Girls in Hollywood.

The locals, under the guidance of Coach McAllister, faced the toughest com- petition ever seen before in Foothill League basketball circles. This state- ment could be illustrated by the fact that Herbert Hoover defeated Glen- dale, big Coast League threat, twice by big scores, while Monrovia pressed the Hoover five hard in both of the league games the Ex-President barely stealing the shows. The Cats started off the season by dropping the first game to Whittier 32-l5. This defeat was followed by a battle with Hoover which resulted in a 37-30 victory for the Ex-Presi- dents. Monrovia received the same treatment from South Pasadena, who tripped the locals 30-2l. Burbank repeated the performance by taking the Varsity 22-7. The Techsters aided in the Cats' downfall with a 35-27 shellacking. The second round brought no hope to the Wildcats as Whittier and Hoover nipped the locals 36-26 and 34-20, respectively. South Pasadena, Burbank, and Tech completed the taming of the Felines with the fol- lowing scores: South Pasadena 32, Monrovia 28, Burbank 29, Monrovia 203 Muir Tech 53, Monrovia 34. The lettermen were Captain Olson, Mecke, Clark, Heller, Lindell, Silcott, Stackhouse, Valenzuela, Wilson, and Manager Larson. CLASS B BASKETBALL McAllister's B team managed to cop three'out of ten games during the league season, finishing the season 34 one step above the cellar champs from Burbank. The team failed to click in most games, the Kittens being taken in tow by the Whittier, Hoover, and Tech fledglings by big scores in both rounds. A fighting spirit enabled them to defeat the South Pasadena Tigerettes 25-24, and then to squelch the Burbank Spud- ders twice, 29-27 and 26-24. The lettermen were Hicks, Larimer, Lar- son, McKee, Nunn, Page, Spratt, Captain Scott, and Manager Foster. CLASS C BASKETBALL Despite the skillful coaching of Coach Hollingsworth, the Monrovia Pee-wee squad barely managed to eke out a solitary win in a five-game schedule. The baby Felines were tak- en decisively into camp by the Whit- tier, Hoover, South Pasadena, and Tech mites. The solitary win came when the locals managed to thump the Burbank five 2l-l l. The letter- men were Hawthorne, Fishman, Haynes, Klein, McCormack, McNeal, Reese, Tsuneishi, Captain Lockwood, and Manager Wathey. CLASS D BASKETBALL Coach Hollingsworth's skill bore fruit as his D team copped the loop cage title for the first championship of its kind in M.A.D. history and the first in the school year. The team started the league schedule dethron- ing the Whittier mites, last year's champs, by a I7-I3 score. Their season ended with a 21-8 walk-away from the Burbank Bull puppies. The lettermen were Coleman, Faust, Flan- nes, Zwiatkwske, Perkins, and Cap- tain Cortese.

The GN OVIA Ifl 39 - THE MONROVlANsm+--- THE WILDCAT T HE wiLpcAT is the high Schools weekly publication. lt is a small four-page newspaper edited by the junior English classes under the di- rection of Miss Loveless and printed by the printing students in the school print shop, under the supervision of Mr. Goodwin. The Wildcat is sup- ported by the advertising done on its pages by Monrovia and Arcadia merchants. The purpose of the Wildcat is two- fold. Primarily, it is to keep the stu- dents informed on the current topics and events taking place in the school and to serve as a chronicle of the school year. Secondly, it is to give those students who are interested in becoming journalists an opportunity to gain practical experience by serv- ing on the editorial staff. Marion Felberg was editor of the Wildcate during the fall semester and was succeeded in that position for the spring semester by Minnie Kroll. james Parsons, as secretary of publi- cations, was responsible for the busi- ness management of the paper. The Wildcat is a member of the Southern California Scholastic Press Association and sent delegates to both the fall and spring conventions. At the fall convention, it received the highest rating for good newspaper style. A delegation representing the Wildcat also attended the eleventh annual Newspaper Day at the Uni- versity of Southern California. Upon several occasions, the Wild- ca 1' has been a six-page paper. A spe- cial literary insert, edited by Helen Crosbie, was added early in the fall, and in the spring, an Easter number with the extra two pages devoted to advertising, was put out through the efforts of Elizabeth Knudsen. In the last quarter, a special senior edition was put out. Because of illness, Miss Loveless was forced to leave school in the last semester, and Miss Wittler took her place as journalism adviser. lt might be stated that only thru the unceasing and untiring efforts of Miss Loveless and Mr. Goodwin, as- sisted by Omer Bailey, was it made possible for the Wildcat to be pub- lished each week. 40 ld ,..,1t C LIMAXING an extremely success- ful season of dramatic achievements, the senior class presented Our Chil- dren, a three-act comedy drama, be- fore an enthusiastic audience in the high school auditorium on March 24, under the direction of Mrs. Carolyn Doty. The cast gave one of the most pol- ished performances that has ever been given in Monrovia, indeed, the quality of the work was most un- usual for a high school production. Norbert Bundschuh was especially well fitted for his portrayal of the stubborn but well-meaning German, Willie. Robert Scott, likewise, gave a very finished performance in the role of Stasi, a person the exact op- posite of Willie. The plot dealt with these two dif- ferent Germans' trials in bringing up their children amid the fast-moving life of America. The cast of characters: Willie, Norbert Bundschuh: Theodore, james Parsons, Hertha, Marjory Colemang Stasi, Robert Scott: Richard, Robert Gordon: Rosie, Dorothy Leslieg Hut- ton, Robert Graves, Harriet, Betty Wathey: Sophy, Minnie Krollg Le- land, Andrew Carnahan, Carter, David Gere. THE CURTAlN, a dramatic one-act play filled with pathos, was presented before the entire student body in the auditorium on Tuesday, February l8. The plot centered around the home- coming of an escaped convict, Nor- ton, to the shabby apartment of his daughter. The daughter, Ruth, be- lieving her father innocent, was stun- ned when he confessed his guilt. After discovering that she had been lying to him to spare him anxiety, he made her promise to tell the absolute truth from that time on. The play ended as Ruth decided to tell the truth as she had promised and turned her father over to the police who were searching for him. Norbert Bundschuh gave an excellent portrayal of the convict with his deep voice and fine character acting. The Curtain was Monrovia's entry in the annual Pasadena Com- munity Playhouse contest but failed to qualify for the finals. ln the cast of characters were Norbert Bund- schuh, Helen Lockwood, Florita Kirk, Edwin james, james Ross, and George Clayton. Senior Play 4l THE MONROVIAN Junlors 42 THE MONROVIAN Juniors 43 'iLliiT,Lf T H E M O N R O V I A N L . Seasonal lviusic The high school instrumental mu- sic department, consisting of the bands and orchestras under the direc- tion of Mr. Scott, has earned for it- self a fine reputation in the commun- ity. lt has been the aim of Mr. Scott to instill into his students the appre- ciation of and the ability to play real- ly fine music. ln this aim, he has been highly successful. The instrumental music depart- ment is made up of three major or- ganizations and several minor groups. The Symphony Orchestra, the Con- cert Band, and the Parade Band con- stitute the major organizations. ln addition to these three, there is the junior Orchestra and several string, woodwind, and brass ensembles. All are under the direction of Mr. Scott. During the school year, the instru- mental music department gave eleven major concerts. They were as fol- lows: a band concert for the Boys' League: a band concert for the coun- ty meeting of the 4H clubs, held at Santa Anita: a band and orchestra concert at the County Teachers' ln- stitute at El Monte: the band and miscellaneous ensembles at the Pasa- dena Civic Auditorium: a band con- cert in Arcadia and an orchestra con- cert in Monrovia on Armistice Day: an orchestra concert for the Boys' League: the band and miscellaneous ensembles in a program for the Stu- dent Body: an orchestra concert for the Student Body: the band, orches- tra, and ensembles in programs at the El Monte and Puente Union High Schools, and a band concert for the East Pasadena American Legion. The Parade Band is an organization made up of all the students in school that play band instruments. This group serves as a marching unit in parades and outdoor programs, and its purpose is more for display than for producing a fine quality of music. For performances, the Parade Band members are uniformed in white trousers, green capes, and green and white caps and are led by Mr. Pilmer. The Parade Band played and marched at all of the Monrovia footfall games and played for the pep assemblies. ln addition to these, it performed for the Merchants' Association Christmas celebration, the Kiwanis Club Hal- lowe'en party, the Arcadia American Legion Armistice Day parade, and the Monrovia Day parade. Aside from the concerts of the bands and orchestras, the instrumen- tal music department performed in- numerable miscellaneous musical services. lt provided orchestras, en- sembles, and soloists for the Method- ist Church, the lOA English class re- ception, the Armistice Day program, the Arcadia Women's club, the Christmas Assembly, the Rotary Club. the Eastern Star, the Merchants' As- sociation, the mid-year graduation, the Boys' League Play, the Cirls' League Play, Senior Class Play, the Little Theater evening of one-act plays, Boys' and Girls' League meet- ings. the Washington Birthday As- sembly, the Wildrose P.T.A., Public Schools Week, the Los Angeles Coun- ty Rural Mail Carriers Association, the Mayflower P.T.A., the American Legion Auxiliary, the Y.M.C.A., the Flower Show, the Federated P.T.A., the ooeretta.

The Widow in Green, this year's league play, was presented Friday night, November l8. The play was a complete financial success, bringing in over one hundred dollars net profit. The cast was as follows: Dorothy McCune, a shy spinsterg Coretta Graham, a brave explorer, Aileen Leslie, the maid, Helen Lockwood, a gossipy villager, Marjorie Coleman, the village parson: Marion Felberg, the old gardener: Helen Wilson, a young English girl, Marie Overton, her lover, Mary Marsh, Louise, jose- phine Williams, Mrs. Liddy, and Geraldine Behm, an American aristo- crat. Throughout the school year, the Girls' League has contributed consid- erable amounts to various charities, including the Orthopedic Hospital, the Red Cross, the Christmas tree fund, and needy families. The league also contributed for special welfare work, such as furnishing lunches and clothing to girls in school. A part of the amount for charities was included in the Aunt Kate Wright fund. A party for the new girls and their big sisters was given at the beginning of each semester. After a program in the auditorium, the girls adjourned to the cafeteria for refreshments. Florence Loomis. as chairman of the social committee, planned the par- ties. Miss Osborne, Mary jean Scott, and Dorothy Mary McCune were the delegates to the fall convention of Girls' Leagues, held at the Eagle Rock High School, November 4 and 5. The spring convention was held at Po- mona College, May l2. Miss Osborne, Mary Marsh, Mary Elizabeth Price, Florita Kirk, Dorothy Baker, Kath- erine Miller, and Coretta Graham were the delegates. Under the direction of Florita Kirk, program chairman, several interesting and unusual programs were pre- sented. Each class gave a program which was judged on a percentage basis by Mrs. Doty, Miss Chess, and Mrs. Yenney. The junior class, under the leadership of Coretta Graham, won the silver loving cup. The gym classes and one of the dramatics classes also presented programs. THE BOYS' League is an organiza- tion of which every boy in school is a member. lts chief purpose is to promote fellowship and good spirit among the boys. The first meeting of the year was given over to the offical business necessary for starting the League on a new year. The meeting following this was, as has been the custom for the past few years, given over to the Reverend Donald Stewart, who as usual told the boys a story. The most interesting meeting of the first quarter was a lecture and dem- onstration of gyroscopes by Professor Haustan of the California Institute of Technology. ln the second quarter, the Boys' League had three outstanding meet- ings. The first was a home talent program, consisting of numbers by several of the school's musical groups and two skits put on by the boys themselves. The second consisted of the showing of two reels of films from the Ford factory at Detroit. The third was an exchange program with the Girls' League, in which the girls put on a program for the boys in re- turn for the home talent program the boys reproduced for the girls. ' THE MONROVIANW - ': The biggest event in the chronicles of the League was the production of the Boys' League Play, The Tower Room Mystery. The play was a mystery thriller, and as all the parts, including the feminine parts, were played by boys, it developed into a roaring comedy. The play was high- ly successful both from a dramatic and financial standpoint. The third and fourth quarters were rather uneventful for the Boys' League. The best meeting of the two quarters was held in the bleachers on the football field and was devoted to boxing and wrestling matches be- tween the boys. Several bloody noses and one knockout marked this meet- ing as a rip snorterf' lt might also be mentioned that the League at- tempted a food drive to help the un- employed, but it was unsuccessful. The officers of the Boys' League were Bill Thompson, president: Chas. Pirolli, vice-president: Sheldon Eller, secretary, and Frank McKee, treas- urer. Mr. A. K. Wilson is the adviser.

Bill Presley, Murray's most tal- ented protege, and the one-man Mon- rovia team in the State Finals, as well as lowering the school record in the hundred yard dash, also placed sec- ond in the low hurdles and fourth in the high hurdles in the State Finals, cracking the school records for both events, which were held formerly by himself. Dimitry lowered the 880 yard run record down to 2:O4.5. The relay team, composed of Pirolli, Evans, Russell, and Presley, lowered the school record for the relay to l:33.4. Ray Turnbull, in the new event, the football throw, heaved the pigskin l83 feet 5 inches for a new record. The lettermen are Manager Sparks, Toothaker, Parsons, De Groot, Lind- ell, Evans, Harvey, Valenzuela, Sil- cott, Keens, Russell, Eller, Turnbull, Bullock, Dimitry, Pirolli, Olson, Pres- ley, and Captain George Allison. The lightweights, also tutored by Coach Murray, had a very disastrous season ending the schedule next to the cellar in fifth place, chalking up a single victory. The solitary victory was eked out by a narrow margin from a weak Whittier squad l53V2-5l Vzl. Every school, after this first victory, swamped the unfortunate Cats. They were taken by Hoover l86-l8lg by South Pasadena l57 3 5 - 46 2!5l: by Burbank l56-487: and by Muir Tech l8l 7112 - 22 5!l2l. The lettermen are Manager Woo- dle, McCiuire, Fletcher, McNeal, Franco, Spratt, Van Horn, Willis, Sandlin, Braithwaite, Irwin, McKee, V. Larson, and Loring Day, Honorary Captain. Coach Murray's Class C spikesters followed in the footsteps of the Vars- ity squad, finishing in second place in league track standings and drop- ping only one dual meet. The sole defeat was at the hands of a marvelous Hoover squad who trounced the locals decisively l682A- l7V3l. Previously, the locals had subdued the tough Whittier babes l49-377. Following theset-back by Hoover, the Peewees recovered in time to swamp South Pasadena l642A-2lV3l, Burbank l65-l2l, and, climaxing a successful season, nosed out Tech l47-301. The lettermen are McGowan, man- ager, Hudson, loyce, Wood, O. Zim- merman, W. Zimmerman, Pfaff, Ed- inger, Kwiatkowski, Klein,Vogel, and Capt. Tsuneishi. ann.

The M G N IQ Q V I A N Commencement Number ll s W ,M lf rascal- - si T H E M O N R O V I A N 42 mfs:--Jeff: SUMMEIQ CLASS There are three outstanding events that every senior class of Monrovia High sponsors. They are the Senior- junior Prom, the Senior Class Play. and Senior Ditch Day. Aside from these three traditional events, the ac- tivities of a senior class are limited very much to business matters, such as selecting class rings, investigating colleges, and arranging all the many little details connected with a gradu- ation, that concern none but the members of the class. ln these re- spects, the history of the class of '33 di fers but little from those of its ecessors. The Senior junior Prom sponsored by the senior class and paid for by it hich the juniors were guests, was held at the Monrovia Women's Club- ous on january l3, l933. Aside the fact that the orchestra was almost an hour late, the dance went f without a hitch and was a huge s. e senior class l , Our Chil- dre s perfor e in the high ho toriumf ch 24, l933. h a was po arly acclaim d as e of be ramatic p c ions in t is scho . Much of M. .mi- the credit for the success of Our Children must go to Mrs. Doty, the director. At 9:55 on the morning of May l7, l933, every member of the class of '33 walked out of his class and left for the day. It was Senior Ditch Day! The majority of the class went to Balboa beach, where the day was spent in swimming, riding, bicycling, playing ball, and acquiring the much- desired tan l?l, and the night sgent in dancing. Miss Rives, Mr. Mc lin- tic, and Mrs. F. Scott were the chap- erones. The class of '33, instead of leav- ing some present to the school, as has been the custom set by preceding classes, voted to leave what money was left in the treasury after the graduation expenses were paid, to the Monrovian fund, in order to insure a good annual. The officers of the class of '33 were George Allison, president, Dor- othy Leslie, vice-presidentg Dorothy Reardon, secretary, and Robert Scott, treasurer. To Miss Osborne, the class adviser, must go the credit for having guided the class thru a successful year and preparing it for graduation.

The annual party was held at Bal- boa, Saturday, june 3. The members spent the day swimming, eating, and getting sun-burned. Miss Dort and several parents chaperoned. WORLD FRIENDSHIP Mrs. Morgan and four delegates from the local World Friendship Club attended the annual federation con- vention, held at Hollywood High, May 6. Ivan Wilson, Velma Dunn, Doris Barnard, and Cora Morgan rep- resented the local organization. The theme of the convention was The Place of the Radio, Newspaper, and Movies in International Affairs. f-aoL.-, o ART CLUB One of the most delightful of the activities of the Art Club in the last quarter was a trip to the Huntington Library, May I9. The group left school fifth period and spent the afternoon in the gardens and art gal- leries of the famous library. Of spe- cial interest were the paintings, tap- estries, furniture, and porcelains. C. A. A. I The big event of the year for the G.A.A. was their annual banquet, june 2, at the Christian Church. At this time, the athletic awards and chevrons were awarded to the girls who had earned them. ,sa.x.f5 Katherine Mothershead and Anita Stefano were the baseball and track clivilief managers respectively, who managed these two sports. CIRCLE M One of the most novel features of the Circle M this year was a pro- gressive bicycling supper in May. Starting with fruit cocktail at Wini- fred Wood's home, the girls bicycled to Mrs. Yenney's for the entree and sandwiches. The salad was served at the home of Helen Leonard, and the dessert at Mary 'Marsh's. HI-Y The prominent meetings in the fourth quarter included a swimming party at Pasadena and Mothers' Night. A fine program and a swell dinner marked Mothers' Night as one of the outstanding meetings of the year. The officers of the Hi-Y were Robert Swain, president: Geo. Cro- zier, vice-president, jack Draper, secretary, and Malcolm Miller, treas- urer. Mr. Slick is the club sponsor. IR. HI-Y In the fourth quarter, the junior Hi-Y's activities consisted of another swimming party at Pomona and a night devoted to boxing matches. Mr. McDonald was the speaker of the quarter, who spoke on Keeping Fit. A program of music by local musical groups and tricks by Dwight Welch was the outstanding one of this quar- ter. BLOCK M The fourth quarter was rather un- eventful for the Block M. Only one meeting was held, and it was for the purpose of collecting dues and ar- ranging for the initiation of the track and baseball Iettermen into the club. At the close of the school year, the membership of the Block M was com- prised of approximately seventy-five athletes. . THE MONROVIAN . 'SIDICKLIES' WITHOUT a doubt one of the most outstanding productions of its kind ever seen in Monrovia, Pickles, an operetta in three acts, was presented on Friday evening, May 26, through the combined efforts of the dramatic and music departments. Anna Karp gave an outstanding performance as llona, the gypsy girl. Harry Wharton convincingly played the humorous role of j. jennison jones, advertising expert de luxe. Norbert Bundschuh, the grand old man of Monrovia dramatic pro- ductions, presented an amusing char- acterization of jonas H. Pennington, proprietor of the Peter Piper Pic- kles establishment. Robert Gordon, the American ar- tist, and Katherine Van Hellen, daughter of the pickle magnate, made an excellent pair of young lovers. The lighting, scenery, and stage sets were very effective. Especially beautiful was the setting for the gypsy camp in the second act, with a moonlit pool and brook of running water appearing on the stage. The operetta was under the cap- able direction of Mr. Chester H. Van Hellen, Mrs. Frances C. Potts, and Mrs. I. E. Doty. Also assisting in the production were Miss Grace Russell, in charge of costumes, and Miss Ed- na Chess, who aided in designing the scenery. The cast was as follows: Hans Maier, Arthur Briggs: Louisa, Geral- dine Shaw, Captain Kinski, Ray Hunt: Bumski, Carter Keeneg Rum- ski, james Hodge, j. jenison jones, Harry Wharton, jigo, Mike Cherry, llona, Anna Karpg Arthur Crefont, Robert Gordon: june Pennington, Katherine Van Hellen, jonas H. Pen- nington, Norbert Bundschuhg Lady Vivian Delancy, Shirley Vittg Gypsy Dancer, Bonnie Fern Lamb. The personnel of other special parts and choruses was made up of members of the gless clubs and cho- members of the glee clubs and chorus. --- tTHE MONROVIAN s- -1 Basglmll A S THE ANNUAL goes to press, the Monrovia Wildcats seem scheduled to draw down another baseball cham- pionship, The local sluggers went to the quarter finals in the Pomona Tourna- ment, being defeated by the San Diego nine, the winners. The Cats also represented the Foothill league in the C.l.F. play-offs, but lost their initial encounter 9-8 to Brea Olinda. ln the league opener, the Wildcats pounded out a Zl-9 victory over Whittier. Hoover received similar treatment with a l9-9 shellacking, while South Pasadena was defeated , l, i ,, l ,f Q i fy 5, . , J ki i 8-3. Muir Tech now is the only ob- stacle between Monrovia and their league championship, with the Ter- riers having a slight edge as the An- nual goes to press. Tennis Evidently the two round schedule, which was started this year in tennis, agreed with the Monrovia tennis squad, as the net team ended its sea- son inxsecond place, dropping only two games to the invulnerable South Pesadena Tigers. The lettermen were Lusher, Crozier, Larrimer, Cowen, Irons, james, Warschaw, Ball, Cap- tain Ross, and Manager Jacobson. - X x l 76 li THE MONROVIAN Q1 GIIQLS' SIDGIQTS THE SOPHOMORE baseball team came out on top in girls' baseball and claimed this year's championship. They won all of their games and showed a lot of excellent playing. Members of the championship sopho- more team were Margaret Morimoto, Anita Stefano, Lucille Moore, Va- nassa Robey, Ruth Leonard, Grace McFarland, Velma Dunn, Pat Weed, Bianca Stefano, Ella Mae Cherry, Eleanor Hunter, and Mildred Polack. Sixth period was victorious among the period teams. The competition in which thc sophomore team gained the cham- pionship in track this year consisted of one track meet in which the four class teams participated. The sophs came out on top with the freshmen second. The events which were competed in were basketball for dis- tance, jump and reach, standing broad jump, SO yard dash, basketball for accuracy, baseball for distance, hop step and jump, 75 yard dash, 220 yard relay, running broad jump, and the obstacle relay.
