Nl.. i l Panorama of Highland Park The College HE strenuous West, the opportunity-fostering Pacific Coast, pro- gressive California, sun-loved Los Angeles, is the home of Uc- cidental College: the NVest whose boundless freedom presents unrivalled opportunity for the exercise of man's originality: the Pacific Coast, the center ol' the America of the next decade: California, with progressive step, ever ready to take the initiative in making the most of opportunities and privilegesg Los Angeles, the embodiment of the whole. l'hilosophers of all ages have discussed the infiuence of environment upon the development of character. The question of the bearing of its location upon Occidental is a similar question, but the conclusion seems justifiable that its location, technically its environment, has been a great factor in the making of Occidental College. There has been action and reaction, however. The College has made lflighland Park the center of a choice residence district: Highland il'arlc with its many attractions has made Occidental popular. There has been an on-rushing tide of progress from which there is no escaping. The winding country road with scattered country dwellings-the l asadena Avenue of a few years ago-is the densely settled, busy boulevard-the highway of travel connecting two thriving cities. The site for Occidental has all thc advantages of city in country. Two car lines serve the community. and the busy city may be reached in thirty minutes. A walk occupying half the time will take the nature- lover to the hilltops or into cool, quiet canyons and glens, so wild and 12 picturesque that it seems as if the city could not be within a hundred miles. The main buildings stand, conscious of their superior advantages, just at the crest of the hill. The campus faces across to the hills to the south--those hills which are a bank of changing shades of green, or contrasting shades of brown as the season varies, but always a source of joy to the beauty-lover. The busy city world in which we live may be forgotten and whosoever will may lose himself in sequestered soli- tudes. Live oaks cast dense shadows, soft grasses wave upon the hill slopes. birds sing and flowers bloom. From the top, if excursions from the straight and narrow way do not prove too alluring-such a view! There are glimpses into faraway valleys beyond other hills: there is a range of blue mountains only a few miles distant, with the white observatory on Nt. XfVilson sparkling out its distinctive signal like a lighthouse beacon over seas: and on the other hand, the ocean, the world-old Pacific. Point lfermin dips its feet in the quiet waters. Catalina rises mistily, the vague outline of her purple mountains silhouetted against the horizon. A wavering line of smoke marks the progress of a steamer. And away over there, be- yond-somewhere-the setting sun. just at the foot of the hills runs the Arroyo Seco, a characteristic California river. Those who know and love the Scotch streams say that 5.159- T 4' in , A, In the Arroyo 13 the winding stream, with its fringe of willows and the pic- turesque bridge is strikingly suggestive of the banks and braes ol llonnie Doon. Wilcl grape vines and clematis cover oak and sycamore and willow all along the way and Nature graciously makes bowers of beauty for her worshippers. College Hill, the western boundary of the campus, is the scene for strenuous efforts and the view is the reward, and a 1'ich one, for the few moments of hard Work necessary to gain the top.H Very appropriately College Ilill is the scene of many a college ramble and moonlight supper. It is also tl1e Field of battle upon which the bloody class wars are fought. The numerals of the .ffl I Bridge over the Arroyo 14 X .ff O The C. M. Stimson Library conquering class upon the grassy slope give evidence of the victor. lfurther away is Eagle Rock. XVith increased facili- ties the pretty valley at whose head the eagle-scarred rock stands, is losing some of its old charm of country. Notwith- standing its growing popular- ity, it always makes a favorite tramp for pleasure seeker as well as scientilic student, and many a happy ramble has ter- minated there with blazing fire and well-appreciated' picnic lunch or supper. ,In another direction the quiet Church of the Angels or the Annandale Club-house makes a pleasant destination for the walker. Think you the college student has no place in his day-his In Sycamore Grove night, for these? Cultivation of the love of beauty is what college is for. To heighten the sensibilities, to create a keener appreciation of the beauties of the world-this makes life a joy. lilooks do their share, but the student who sees only books has lost half, yes, more than half the good of living. What the whispering' pines of ljowdoin were to Longfellow and lolawthorne, will be the hills and pleasant seclusions of Occidental to her students. This is the aesthetic side, Practically, the location midway between Los Angeles and Pasadena is a decided ad- vantage. Upon the scenic route of the Mt. Lowe railway, Uc- cidental is brought to the at- tention of the sojourners in the .lp ft ' The Library 61 . T -'sr .AN The Arroyo after a Rain Land of Sunshine, and Occi- dental claims them as her friencls. Los Angeles is becom- ing increasingly popular: Pas- adena likewise. lloth attract the cream of the East and thus Occidental claims the c1'eam of the East as her friends in ad- dition to her circle of local friends. And Occidental merits their attention and their inter- est. The years of struggle- the anxious years of careful thought and planning' for each move in the making of Occi- dental made by our trustees, to whom we dedicate this volume -have not been unavailing. The opportunities of the past were not the opportunities of the present, and the days of hardship, misfortune and dis- 16 couragement have only made possible these succeeding years of increas- mg prosperity and the hope for greater years. Strong men have given their best efforts, their thoughts, their time, their lives, and looking upon the result, they may say that it has not been in vain. 1 ln the winter of 1885-6 there was a meeting of a few men who were interested in the forming of a new institution of higher education in Los Angeles. The' result was embodied in the following resolution of February 15, 1886: That it is the sense of this meeting that steps should be taken at once looking toward the establishment of a Presbyterian institution of learning in the cityf, That was the beginning of Occi- dental College. There were necessarily many preliminary steps to be taken before the school actually began work. Its site was in .Doyle Heights. It was, in those first years, a boarding school and occupied but one building. This building stood for eight years, 1888 to 1896. On the thirteenth of january, 1896, the building burned and the trustees were forced to face a crisis. They met it bravely. Undaunted, they made greater plans. The school continued its work in temporary quar- ters up town. Meanwhile a new location in Highland Park was decided upon, and the building now occupied by the Academy was erected, and in 1898 the new Occidental opened, the one building accommodating both College and Academy under one roof and one faculty. That was the beginning, eleven years ago. The rest is the story of rapid growth and marked improvement in all lines, The first new building, the Hall of 1- . ,Q-A 1- ., VB ,lvgy vi 1,1 , -- V . 5,4 'lv '.f 1 , --.f A . - ' .,1 .

Compared with their old quarters the new building seemed luxurious. lt seemed fairly too good to be true that the same year, in addition to the fl.-lall of Letters, the Library was built, a gift of Charles M. Stimson. The square in which those buildings stand was improved, and the grounds made attractive by the planting of lawns and ornamental trees and shrubs. Large-hearted men have helped Occidental by their interest and more substantially by money gifts. New buildings are planned for in the near future and after that the imagination carries one far. lb Large realization IS born of large ideahzation. ,Plans for the Greater Occidental, while on paper and perhaps writ in air, are the foundations through which the real one will be made possible. A new Science I-lall is no longer a possibility, it is a probabilityg it is a neces- sity, and necessity finds a way. VVith increasing size of departments and rapid growth of the student body, the matter cannot meet much delay. The Observatory on College Hill is another plan for Occidental, and one which, in the days of the Greater Occidental, will be founded on hard, substantial fact. A new gymnasium is also one of the soou-to-be- realized factors in Occidental's life. The tools which lie at hand are not idle. The increasing number of students who come to Occidental give ample exercise to all the advantages with which Occidental is blessed. Each year the standard of scholarship is raised. Her students go out with the baehelor's de- gree, men and women who in the smaller school have mounted to the height where they are ready to climb higher. They are trained to appreciate and prize intellectual attainment, to have keener sympathy for the world, and a higher regard for the moral and spiritual. Occidental cannot be justly accused of having as an aim a desire to become a university or in any degree to simulate the work of a university, bearing that name. Occidental would be distinctly a small college. There is a decided field for such an institution, for many of them, in our country, and Occidental endeavors to refieet her interpre- tation of this idea. She should be the place where boys and girls become men and women, rich in intellectual attainment and richer still in having seen the visions of great things which the future may hold in store for them. Occidental is original in lacking the atmosphere of profound ancient learning. She is original in having memories of other sorts. Are the old Spanish fathers forgotten? California's atmosphere is distinctive. She has the story of the heroic lives of humble fathers sacrificed on the altar of their devotion. Southern California's atmosphere breathes of the days of padres, of senor and senorita-days not so long past. It breathes through gentle breezes, among oaks and sycamoresg among olives and old orange groves. Occidental has a wealth of strenuous, exhilirating ambition to in- spire for untiring efforts. ,Youth is hers, she rejoicesiin her youth. Life is before her. History is in the making. The blood tingles at the thought of the world's opportunities. The race has just begun. Occi- dental lb bound to win. V. M.gl1., .10 18 OFFICERS Rev. Hugh K. Walker, D.

Zinn VCWVLVLIEEE YEAR The Hill Fight of 1908 N accordance with the tradition of Occidental College, and the di- vine right of upper classmen, a meeting was held September 17. 1908. to determine the nature of the clash between the Freshmen and Sophomores for class supremacy. After due consideration the tra- ditional hill scrap was reinstated as an essential part of underclass hostilities. Previous to the year '07 it had been customary for the Sophomores to place their class numerals on College Hill and maintain them for a definite period of time against the attacks of the Freshmen, in a position whence they could be seen by the naked eye from any part of the college campus. If the Sophomores failed to show at least one set of numerals at the end of the allotted time, the victo1'y was with the Freshmeng otherwise with the Sophomores. During the opening season of the fall of '07, on account of the great difference in the number of men in the two contesting classes, an interesting pole rush took the place of the hill scrap. In the fall of '08, however, the birth of a large herd of ambitious and athletic young Fresh- men, considered the equal of the hitherto victorious Sophomore class, made it plain to the blood-thirsty upper classmen that material was on hand for a real tight. Consequently, the hill scrap, which is quite a bloody institution, was reinstated. This question having been settled, the upper classmen bnsied them- selves arranging the minor detail of the scrap. F. N. Rush, '09, and O. R. Bird, ,l0, were chosen referees. It fell to Holley as President of the Senior class, to tire the final shot and judge the outcome of the contest. The ll which the Sophomores had previously whitewashed on the hillside, was declared illegal and erased. The time of the contest was Hxed for Monday night and Tuesday morning, September 21 and 22, from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. Football men were barred from fighting and the number engaged in the scrap was limited to fifteen from each class. On Sunday evening before the contest, a half dozen Sophomores carried the far-famed ll, which consisted of two whitewashed boards, each nailed to a heavy railroad tie, nearly to the top of the hill and buried it there. On Monday night following, two fighting bands of fifteen men each were counted out by the referees. Iloth bands left the Hall of Letters about 9 p.m. The Sophomores spent a miserable night clinging to shrubs on the steep hillside that they might guard the sacred ll. The Freshmen camped at considerable distance from the contested ground and prepared themselves for an early morning en- counter. A little after 6 a.m. Tuesday morning, the Freshmen came down from the crest of the hill in single file. The Sophomores met them in single file, each Sophomore grappling with a Freshman as opportunity offered. The Sophomores were short a man, because they had sent Nel- 68 son to hide in the mustard at the south end of the hill that he might expose a large whitewashed ll during the last few moments of the iight. For over an hour the battle waged. Some of the boys fought bitterly to the bottom of the hillg others lay quietly in each others arms to dream feverishly of the dawn of peace. At last the Freshmen suc- ceeded in subduing the Sophomores physically. But much to their dis- aster, they forgot the necessity of vigilance. Wlhile they scouted for new 11's on other parts of the hill, the unguarded Sophomores un- covered a 1 which the .Freshmen had failed to remove, brought back a railroad tie which had slipped down the hill, and, wrapping a white blanket around it, made another 1.,' After these Sophomores had put: 1 and 1 together, they were not astonished to find that it made 11. The Freshmen soon discovered their mistake, but just then Holley fired the Hnal shot and at the same time he looked up and saw two 11, 1 with each eye. One was due to Sophomore strategy: the other to the indomitable perseverance of Battling Jim Nelson. Then Mr. 1-lolley blinked his eyes and declared the hill light of 1908 a victory for the class of 11. 69 The Sophomore Hallowe'en Stunts HE annual Hallowe'en stunt which was given on the athletic field on the evening of November first, was a splendid success this year. The Sophomore class was in charge and all the members of the faculty and college were in attendance. In front of the bleachers a large platform had been erected with a big bonfire at the side, which was kept burning' throughout the performance. 4 ' The early part of the evening was given up to appropriate Hal- lowe'en stunts by the different classes. The Seniors took the form of a parody on Dante's Inferno. Dante was led by Virgil through the infernal regions, where were pointed out the various enemies characteristic of a Senior's life.' In the midst could be seen the agonizing of Exams, Cuts, Flunkers, College Expense and Social Committees. After the harrowing experience of passing through hell, Dante was led to Purgatory Heightsf, where in the dim distance could be seen the Angelic Throng --the Senior girls--playing on harps and singing in triumph of the successful subjugation of their enemies through four long years of toil. With a blaze of blue fire the Juniors ushered the audience into the presence of Mephistopheles on the nether shore of the Styx, where a mortal of Highland Park had just landed in search of knowledge concerning Occidental College. The explanations by Mephistopheles of the character of various college celebrities were bright and some- times painfully accurate. Then the different classes were taken off in order. The Seniors came skipping onto the stage to attend a no- torious Senior Sing. The Juniors were shown with all the brilliancy and versatile cleverness for which they were always distinguished, espe- cially in the psychology class, which was portrayed in a very realistic manner. The Sophomores and Freshmen were also commented on in passing. The Sophomores gave a number of songs and a take off on the Freshmen. Then suddenly their numerals ,ll were emblazoned forth in green and white from the top of the gym, while the fellows burst forth with a rousing class yell. Then last of all came the Freshmen, dressed as witches and wizards. In the middle of the platform was placed a cauldron to which they slowly advanced, dolefully chanting, Bones, bones, bones. Surround- ing the cauldron, they made a charm which revealed the future of some of the Sophomores. But in the midst of it the cauldron fell, the charm was broke, and the Sophomore class went up in smokef, The regular I-Iallowe'en supper was served by the Sophomores, and everyone gathered around the big bonfire for the remainder of the evening. 70 Robertson, '11 Gobar, '11 ' The two largest point winners The Interclass Marathon', HE institution of cross-country running as an inter-class sport and as a preparation for track work was one of the leading features of the Occidental athletic year. After the Olympic Games of 1908, the Marathon fever began to spread over the country with the rapidity of the south-sea plague, and when Coach Gorton proposed the introduction of inter-class cross-field jogs, the enthusiasm with which the plan was accepted showed that Tiger-town had been on the main line of the course pursued by the new contagion, Marathonitis. ' The course chosen for the cross-country runs was about four miles in length, and ran uphill and down dale, through the picturesque country north of the College. Steep hills, precipitous slopes, and stretches of level ground were traversed by the runners, so that in the long run the sprinters and hill climbers were on an equal basis. Agility in hurdling and scrambling under fences also was a valuable asset, and the man who was fortunate enough to be a good runner, climber and acrobat was sure of a place among the point winners. Coach Gorton offered a cup to the class scoring the largest number Of points in three cross-country runs, and the Sophomores carried -off the trophy, with the Freshman class a not-close second. The Seniors and Juniors, on account of their small number of entries, were not im- portant factors in the competition for first place, and the contest was really a fight between the 1911 and 1912 men. The Freshies had the largest number of entries in all the races, but the 1911 runners took ' 71 nearly all the cream at the finish of the events. In the first two races points were awarded to the first fifteen men that finished, and in the third event the first eight men were point winners. - Several trial runs were held just before the Christmas holidays, and the first inter-class event took place January 19. Thirty-six men started. Kenny Gordon, 1912, was picked to win the event, but he got lost in the fog and strayed along a cow path until his chance of winning was lost. Robertson, 1911, took first place in 24 minutes, 18 2-5 seconds. In the second race, Robertson showed that he was able to produce the goods by again winning, this time beating Gordon in a great sprint after the auburn-haired Freshman had led nearly all the way. Robert- son covered the course in 23 minutes 40 seconds, reducing the time of his previous performance by 38 seconds. Coach Gorton kept all the regular track men out of the third race, only fifteen runners starting. Ross, 1911, took first place in slightly slower time than was made in the other races. For the development of long-distance runners, cross-country jog- ging is considered by Coach Gorton to be better than any other kind of preliminary trainingj The sport undoubtedly will be a permanent feature of early track work hereafter and if the men continue to enter into the sport with the same interest that marked the contests this year, Occidental will always have strong milers and two-milers. Good results should begin to show next year. WWW? QD 72 E POINT WINNERS IN THE INTERCLASS CROSS- COUNTRY RUNS, 1909 For the F. H.

At times the teams played nearly as bad ball as this year's ,Varsity ,The game brought out many dark horses, the most prominent of these being l'Satan'l VVeller and A. G. Paul of the Senior. Class. Paul hit the ball once and NVeller only crossed his feet twice throughout the whole game. Another feature of the game was the work of Dad Roberts at first base. This old war horse up to the day of the game had caught three balls, but when the umpire called the game all the old lust of the sand lot days came over him and he played like a second Hal Chase. Speedyf' Rush fanned so many times that it took three days for the density of the Highland Park atmosphere to clear. Ander- son and Peterson of the Faculty ran him a close second, spending most of their time while at bat in seeing who could punch the biggest holes in the free air around the plate. To try and give a detailed account of the game would be a physical impossibility, as after the fifth inning the score keeper had his fingers crossed, merely from that time on putting down his impressions of the contest. The Faculty spent most of the time crossing their trollies and pulling off parlor' etiquette whenever a ball strayed into mutual ground. L In the seventh canto Coach Gorton thought that he would stop the carnage by taking the helm for a while, but immediately all the back numbers took to his fancy offerings, and most wonderful of all. Speedy Rush connected with the ball. This was by far the most distressing spasm of the whole show, as the Seniors scored live of their eleven runs in this period. The 'game ended in a blaze of glory when the two warring teams gave three mutual cheers- not too loud to be vulgar, nor too long to be muckerish, don't you knowf' Thus endeth the last canto of the activities of the Class of '09 in the field of the college athletics.

V V 5 . ' .1 i- r' nur fin ' - 3 1 l The Head of the Parade The College Circus HE coming of a circus is always a great event in any community, even in a college settlement, and the memories of childhood days are recalled and enjoyed by all who will enter into the spirit of the occasion. One of the great annual events of college life is the college circus, which comes in the latter part of the last semester, and serves to relax the mental strain incident to the careful and honest performance Of the curricula duties. The familiar sound of peanut venders, the monotonous calling of the ticket' seller and the unceasing din of confusion from the numerous side show artists, all welcomed the crowds-a mixed multitude of degree-burdened faculty members, degree seeking Seniors, don't-care-if- I-never-come-back Juniors, and nondescript underclassmen, added to which were a countless number of urchins and the more ancient High- landers. The usual parade was a lengthy affair and attracted great attention and applause from the throngs that pressed for standing room along the line of march. The distinct features of this parade cannot be 75 enumerated, for all the participants were in a class by themselves, and to praise them all would be a task away beyond the vocabulary grasp of the scribe. A review of the procession, led by a skillful drum major and typical band, as it passed the grand stand, was a sight never to be forgotten by those fortunate enough to witness it. Ilefore the end had passed, bringing with it in faultless marching order, the baseball teams that were so soon to be engaged in battle royal and to be the recipients of the momentary mock heroic admira- tion which all athleticers receive from the worshipping throngs--the wildly enthusiastic crowd was com- pelled to sink, from sheer exhaustion, intovthe cushioned seats of the vast amphitheater. 'l'he first event was the band concert led by a great demonstration of baton swinging by a farmer-looking guy from a neighboring village, secured by the circus management at an unmen- tionable expense. The next events, as is the custom in a three ring show, came in quick succession and each de- served special commendation. The tumblers were a worthy lot, and with the assistance of that master of clown performers, Prof. llraden, created much amusement for all. The statues by the strong men of unpronounceable and unspellable cognomens were of a classic character and aroused the multi- tude to such a high pitch of enthusias- tic demonstration that the life of the daring balloon artist was threatened by the atmospheric concussion that arose simultaneously with his ascension. He, however, succeeded in maintaining his hold on the parachute and soared, be- fore cutting loose, almost beyond the ken of the eye of man. ln fact, neither he nor his balloon have ever been heard of since, although largeyrewards have not been offered for his safe return and in spite of the diligent and careful search which was not made. One of the most exciting events of the day was the race between Vice and Virtue. Several times during the course the bleachers were brought to their feet by the exceedingly dangerous chances taken by the daring and fear- lessly reckless riders, whose marvelous presence of mind turned imminent death into wonderful feats of horse- manship. The trained animal feature of the show followed this hair-raising race, relieving the tremendous nervous strain incident to horse racing. The feats performed by the elephant were surely wonderful. A fitting close for the whole show was the stage hold-up, which was un- qualihedly the most thrilling piece of realism ever perpetrated upon an un- suspecting public and it was with great difficulty that the circus management constrained the people from over- whelming them with an added twenty- five cents as a token of their apprecia- tion of this combination of Indian- convict-cowboy stunts. May this circus be perpetuated as an annual event in the future generations of college life. The Rites of the Mystic Key IS royal nibs, the founder of the ancient order of the Mystic Key, made his annual visit to Occidental College on the night of April 27th. According to custom, he made his appearance in the neighborhood of College Hill, where a hundred or more loyal sup-' porters had gathered in ghostly attire to welcome him. In honor of the new members, the initiated had prepared a banquet fconsisting of raw hen-fruit, silver leaf lard, sawdust and various other edibles too numer- ous to mentionj. As the uninitiated had not yet seen his royal much- ness, they were required to partake of the repast while blindfolded. As the night was rather warm, some of the overheated lfreshmen had to be fanned with a broom while they ate. The vows that the initiates were required to take are secrets of the order and cannot be made public, but they were solemnized by kissing the improvised skeleton of the ancient founder of the order-on the mouth. After all had taken the oath, the casket containing the corpse was borne by four Freshmen in the wake of the Supreme High Puhuha of the local order. Next in the procession came the old members and last the new ones. The procession went first to the home of Prep. Caskey, who had provided coffee and cakes in honor of the annual rite. The Alphas appeased the wrath of the mob with some spearmint gum and good candy. Miss llertha I-loal SL Co., representing the Alumni, 78 E came through with some popcorn balls. The .lleltas p1'ovided some candy. Mme. VVilson and retinue served wafers and lemonade. Cornics were forthcoming at l'rof. Heals. The philosophical representative of the 1'-aculty provided some delicious dry crackers. Rev. Joe Gans got rid of a lot of biscuit to the revellers. Then as a Htting climax to the occasion, as well as to the appetites of all concerned, the procession wended its way to the Gym CU to get its greedy hands on the grub provided by the committee. This feed was a big lemon, as the financial agent had absconded with all of his hard-earned cash. Boxing bouts, which lasted till the wee, small hours, were the last feature of the evening's work. After several preliminaries by a lot of would-be fighters, the big event between Kid Thomson of Ave. 52, and Kid Smart of Santa Ana, was pulled off. lt was entirely satisfactory to everyone except Smart. As a fitting aftermath to the whole performance, the next morning Achilles Archibald brought around a box of dainties which the revellers had omitted to call for. Those who had refused to answer the summons of the great chieftain the night before were initiated the following noon before the bleachers. The girls had gathered en masse to witness the proceedings, but they could not bear the sight of the good things the sterner sex were distributing and seeing that they could not get any for themselves soon left. Everyone now swears eternal allegiance to the mystic order and Cagerly awaits the next appearance of His lloninessf' Dol-YT IHITIATEJME AGAIN! 79 ERERNUZATHEWE G. F. Conrad, Edna F. Lowe, . Clara S.

Y 'The Pomona-Occidental Debate NE of the keenest and most spirited debates ever held on the Occidental platform took place on the evening of December 12, 1908, between teams 1'epresenting Occidental and Pomona. The question for debate was, Under existing conditions and with the present outlook should the United States materially increase her navy? Oc- cidental supported the affirmative and Pomona upheld the negative. The decision was unanimously awarded to Occidental. The personnel of the two teams was a sufficient guarantee of the excellence of the debate. The six debaters on account of wide experi- ence in debate and oratory were able to show both forensic ability and argumentative power. Occidental was represented by Mr. Griffith CcaptainQ, Mr. Dodson and Mr. W. Thomson, with Mr. Robertson alternate. Mr. Griffith, although making his first appearance in college debating, carried off the honors of the evening. Mr. Dodson was also new in Southern California circles, but had had considerable experience in successful debating in the East. Mr. Thomson was a member of the Occidental debating team of 1907. Pomona was represented by Mr. Fankhonser fcaptainj, Mr. Hardy and Miss Adams, with Mr. Lorbeer alternate. Mr. Fankhouser was captain of the Pomona debating team of 'O7. Mr. l-lardy, although ap- pearing for the first time in intercollegiate debate, was a well-known high school debater of Southern California, as was also Miss Adams. The subject of the debate was very well adapted to discussion. It was also of peculiar interest, owing to the recent visit of the VVhite Squadron to Pacific waters. Although the question had been argued for many months, great orators of both Senate and I-louse taking part on the Hoors of Congress, and temporarily decided, yet it was still of vital interest because of California's proximity to japan and the Orient. The question was treated by the debaters from two different stand- points. Mr. Griffith in opening the argument for the affirinative laid down clearly and definitely the proposition that war was possible, and both Mr. Dodson and Mr. Thomson followed with that as the basis of debate. llut the negative, purposely or otherwise, ignored that point and based their discussion on the probability of war. lt was evident from the decision that the judges considered the possibility of war as a stronger argument than the probability. T'omona's debaters evidenced great familiarity with the subject and had.their material better in hand than did the Occidental team, although Occidental had the stronger side of the argument as well as stronger presentation. In the four debates that have occurred between Occidental and Pomona, Occidental has won two and Pomona two. Both have won debates in home territory. The honors stand even. Next year the de- bate will be at Claremont. lt devolves upon Occidental to break the apparent hoodoo and wrest from Pomona on her home grounds the victory that ought to rest on the banners of the Orange and Black. 122 7 1 P.

The question for debate was, Should'a postal savings bank be established throughout the United States? Stevenson supported the affirmative and Lowell the negative. The de- cision was awarded to the affirmative. Stevenson was represented by- A. G. Paul fcaptainj, Max Church and F. Spaulding, with A. Reeve, alternate. Lowell was represented by Kyle Grainger Qcaptainj, P. Dodson and H. Thomas, with L. Mc- Dermont, alternate. All the debaters were men of experience and ability. Mr. Paul was a member of the Occidental debating team of 1906, Mr. Dodson was a member of the Occidental debating team of 1908, and Mr. Church had before represented Stevenson in inter-society debate. Mr. Grainger had won laurels in O. C. Academy debating, and Mr. Spaulding and Mr. Thomas had both distinguished themselves in platform work. -As a result, the subject received excellent treatment at their hands. Stevenson in supporting the affirmative had rather the best side of the question from an argumentative standpoint, and the fact that all parties and men of all creeds and faiths supported and contended for the postal savings bank was a telling point which they did' not fail to bring out clearly and forcefully. Lowell, laboring under the double disadvantagelof paucity of material and the unpopularity of the negative side, based their argument on the fact that there was no need for such a bank and. further, that the postal savings bank would work much harm to the present banking institutions, especially to those doing the savings business. - . The interesting way in which the debate was handled by both sides was to be commended, owing to the lack of general interest in a question involving in a large measure the ordinarily dry principles of finance. and the improvement over previous efforts of the same, kind was both noticeable and encouraging. This debate showed conclusively that in- terest in the forum was not on the wane, but was increasinggfit also showed that the two literary societies, Lowell and Stevenson, were both live factors in the literary life of the college. In 1908 the inter-society debate was won by Lowell. Stevenson has won it in 1909. There are three more debates to decide the winner of the Presidents Cup. In the three. years coming there promises to be as keen a set of debates as any in the history of the Occidental forum. q 124 E. V. NVeller G. F. Spaulding. H. F. Pellcgrin Oratory HE life of Occidental during 1909 has found no more vigorous ex- pression than upon the platform. On our forum there have been during the past year eighteen orators contending for honors in three different oratoricals, the Prohibition. the Collegiate, and the Peace. .ln the memory of many in college today there was a time in the history of Occidental when a paltry half dozen comprised the sum total of forensic aspirants. In those days it was true that we turned out orators of great power, although few and far between, some achieving national renown, but today the average of thought and presentation is far above that of former years. The universal testimony of those who have had anything to do with the recent oratoricals has been that the orations are exceedingly strong and their delivery is marked by intense earnestness and effectiveness. Occidental will not and need not take second to any college on the Coast in the matter of forensic ability. A mere glance at the winners of the several home oratoricals held this year will reveal the truth of this statement. XfVe are proud of the laurels of the past. but are still more anxious and expectant that in the coming days the coveted honor of leadership in Southern California oratory may be and ever remain the rightful heritage of the Orange and lllack. 125 ERAMATUEE I '54 D 1 11,6 , ' ' ' 1 5 f ,, N v 'UW ' If I N Z4 fl : 1 mff X L X X Z UIIBUIHIIWNII VIJIWWITHIIIIIIIIIIHlllllll?l!F1ILDli1WliTH'JiI1IlHIHlI'IrIIIHNIEPHHNPWHIiJI'IHHlYFKHfWllIL'lfMM!I!'UlPfHdWU!I1NM!lIITMM ,Mi ,MH ' If H161 ll ML ,vm , ' x i 1- ' If fx !

Mme. VVilson directed the juniors and brought out a great deal in the parts which would have been missed by a less efficient director. The two leads were given to Mr. Chas. McDowell, in the part of M. Prosper Couramont, and to Miss Gail Jepson in the part of Mile. Suzanne de Ruseville. lloth of these left little to be desired, for they were both well done and showed both talent and work. '.I.'he play deals with an important letter, around which the plot is built up. This letter, through not having been delivered, had caused the estrangement of M. Prosper and Louise de la Glaciere. M. Prosper, returning after a three years' tour of the world, finds Louise married. VVhile at her former home he, however, discovers the letter, where it has lain for three years. but refuses to give it up. Suzanne comes to the aid of Louise and' endeavors to find the letter for her. VVhile staying ' 128 ' S 2 I . f-r v- here, however, M. Prosper finds that his affections have changed from Louise to Suzanne. ' The letter is finally recovered after a search, but the conditions were that M. Prosper must himself burn it. He is about to do so uncon- sciously when he throws it out of the window. After being used as a gun wadding and passing through various vicissitudes, it is finally burned by M. Prosper, who confesses his love for Suzanne and wins her. A pretty minor plot runs through the play in the love affair between M. Anatole and Mathilde, M. Anatole is restrained by his guardian, Mlle. Zenobie, but finally eludes her pursuit and claims the prize. All the parts were well taken, and it is impossible to describe all the particular bits of clever work. The parts of the leads have already been mentioned. Miss Jepson was charming in the role of Mlle. Suzanne and again demonstrated, as she has often done before to the students of Occidental, that she pos- sesses dramatic ability in a more than ordinary degree. Mr. McDowel-I was very good in the part of the returned explorer and traveler. The lines sparkled with keen repartee and this was cleverly done by Mr. McDowell. Mr. Dodson as the jealous husband of Louise, who unconsciously aids the marriage of M. Prosper and Suzanne, fell naturally into his part and did good work. t Miss Muriel Fisher, the wife of Baron de la Glaciere, and the victim of the Scrap of Paper, was very pleasing. lirisemouche, the biological enthusiast and guest at the home of Baron de la Glaciere, was taken by Mr. Owen Bird, who was very good in his part, especially where he described his wayward youth and his timely reform.. The part of the impetuous young Mlle. Mathilde, in love with Ana- tole, was well taken by Miss Nellie May Bailey, who created a creditable role in this part, Her work was characterized by a sprightly clever spirit which was sustained throughout. The role of Mlle. Zenobie, the sister of Brisemouche and guardian of the young M. Anatole, was taken by Miss Elizabeth Lowe, who did some very clever work. The part was a rather diliicult one and was carried through to good advantage. Mr. Arthur Young took the part of the much-abused M. Anatole, who is very much in love with Mathilde, but whose suit is almost spoiled by Mlle. Zenobie. Mr. Young's acting in the part was very creditable. The effect of the whole production was very satisfactory and the juniors may be proud of their success. 130 I l Scene from Twelfth Night The Arden Play HE drama has flourished at Occidental this year. Not only the usual round of inconsequent skits, including Bing Hang, the Ringer, and the Prep Vaudeville have been on the boards, but the Arden and the junior Class have both put on creditable productions of the legitimate, Almost at the beginning of the first semester the Arden Dramatic Club began considering' plans for the presentation of some Shakespearean drama. The result of their choice was Twelfth Night or XVhat You l'Vill. The efficient services of Mrs. Miller were secured as coach, and the cast selected to include the best talent of the society. The production showed both an understanding' of the play and careful preparation. Mr. Wlilliam L. Holley in the role of Orsino, Duke of lllyria, interpreted his part to line advantage, showing' that he possesses the histrionic instinct in a marked degree, coupled with ability 131 in this line. His work in the court scene and when he discovers that his page is really the lady of noble birth was particularly fine. Miss Clara Bartram made a success of the rather difficult role of Viola, who masqueradcs as the page of Orsino in order that she may gain his good will and affection. She carried off, with very good effect, the scenes in which the page is sent to the court of the lady Olivia to plead the cause of the duke. One advantage of Twelfth Night for a production of this nature is the fact that there are several roles beside the leads which give ex- cellent opportunity for good work. These roles were well carried out. Miss Leona Lodwick as Olivia, who refuses the suit of Orsino and bestows her affection on the page, but finally accepts the page's brother, made a great deal of her part. The part of Sir Toby llelch was fully appreciated by Mr. Alfred Robertson, who did some very clever character work. This role, while it has fine possibilities, is at the same time a diflicultione, but Mr. Robertson carried it through to the end in a well sustained interpreta- tion, delighting the audience with his handling of the part. Along with Sir Toby Belch comes Sir Andrew Aguecheek, his bosom companion in tippling. This role was assumed by Mr. Earl Weller. I-Iis acting was very keen and provoked much laughter from the audience. The work of Miss Helen Eaton in the character of the sprightly Maria made the most of her part. Miss Eaton demonstrated the fact that she has much ability in this line and her rendering of the part was quite clever. The part of the vain Malvolio, which was taken by Mr. Arthur Collins, is not to be forgotten. This part was well done and deserves commendation. There were other clever bits of work, among these the fool, taken by Mr. Neer, the sea captain, done by Mr. Thomas, and Sebastian, by Mr. Elliott, showed good work. The production of Twelfth Night was advertised by the Arden as the first annual Shakespearean play presented by this club, and the success of the first one augurs well for those to follow. Not only was the general effect good, but there was a finish and attention to detail which showed that solid work had been put upon the play, It is to be hoped that more like this will follow, for it is a benefit not only to those who participate, but to the College in general. The Arden and the Twelfth Nightu cast are to be congratulated. 132 Arden Dramatic Club OFFICERS Wllllam L. Holley, . .... . I iesirlcnt Nellie May Bailey, . Vice Piesiclcnt Lois MacKalip, . . .

B1':ulcn, Physical Director :mk H. Gorton, Hc:ulCo:1cl1 T 5 ' sl The Stand at the Pomona Game Football, 1908 li the success of a football season is to be determined by the win- ning of the championship, our past season has not been a great success, for U. S. C. has undoubtedly won that honor. If on the other hand, we consider that we have defeated our old rival, Pomona. that we have defeated a team which has met victoriously every other college in Southern California, then surely we may claim a successful season and may well be proud of the men who represented us. In the early part of the season the prospects looked bright. .-X large number of varsity men of the previous year were out to form a nucleus, with a good number of men from high school teams to fill in. Then, too, we had a new coach coming from the East. with a new system of play. All taken together gave indications of a wonderful season and a championship. ' ln spite of these facts the early games with the State School were discouraging. The team was slow to get into action, especially the back field. They were unable to handle the forward pass or to use the coach's system to advantage. ln fact, the winning of these games was largely due-to individual playing and to Hukes. The Indian game gave us our first bit of encouragement, for al- though we were defeated by the champions of California by the score of -l-0, our men played a hard, consistent game and showed that when working together they could play football with any team. Our ops ponents were much heavier and the Held was a sea of mud or the score might have been reversed. 141 1 . . ' V . . ..g1ni..g. ' Occident51's Ball in the Center of the Field The next two games with the U. S. C. Law School were used by the coach to develop speed and try out new men. The score of the first game was 12-O, and the next 21-O, showing that the time had not been spent without profit. On the following Saturday VVhittie1' was defeated by the score of 25-6. Renneker picked up 'an onside kick and by a long run made VVhittier's only score. Our score was made at regular intervals by consistent line bucking, assisted now and then by a forward pass, which was used with success for the first time in the season. Throop College and Pasadena High School were defeated in prac- tice games during the following week by the respective scores of 43-O and 17-11. ' 0 ...ln-. ls Pomona Punts Out of Bounds 142 ' ' f .fit . Y 1 5 U .44 Wieman Gains Twenty Yards on Fake Kick VVe would like to wipe out of our memory the sting left by the game with U. S. C., but it stands out, the only dark cloud on our season's record, U. S. C. 14, Occidental Og the score tells the story. It was a hard game and our men fought like Trojans from the first whistle until the last, but the score kept piling up, eight points in the first half, by two field goals, and in the last half six by a touchdown, materially assisted by a fifteen-yard penalty. Both sides seemed to be afraid of trying forward passes or any open playing, so the old game of bucking the line and punting was resorted to. For the L. A. High game the coach changed Thomson and Johnson from the back field to the end positions and placed VVieman and Carus in their positions in the back field. These changes resulted both in a faster back field and in a stronger line and had much to do with the wonderful improvement shown by the team in the last games. In the game with L. A. High the Occidental team played the swiftest, hardest and the most brilliant game played by any team in the South this year. They used the onside kick to advantage, made long gains on the forward pass and fairly had the high school men in a maze by a startling series of plays from a punt formation. Patterson scored in the first half after receiving a forward pass, and in the second half Eaptain Wieman kicked a beautiful field goal from the forty-three-yard me. 143 Capt. Wieman Scores First Touchdown in Pomona Game THE POMONA GAME Three hard-earned touchdowns by Occidental offset Pomona's comr bination of pluck and luck and won for the Orange and Black the great annual football game by the score of 16-11. The bleachers were filled with Occidental and Pomona students and friends, who kept up a perfect bedlam of songs and yells as they watched Occidental win their third consecutive victory from their old rivals. Occidental started the game with a rush, fairly sweeping the visitors off their feet in the early stages of the game. Securing the ball in the center of the field, a series of short end runs and a beautiful triple pass brought the ball to Pomona's Eve-yard line, where VVieman scored the first touchdown and then kicked the goal. Pomona braced up after this and forced Occidental to iight for the next score. After an exciting struggle up and down the field, in which the ball was slowly advanced toward the Blue goal, Collins managed to cross the line. VVieman missed a difficult goal, leaving the score 11 to O. With the score hopelessly against them, but with Dame Fortune on their side, Pomona evened the score in a few minutes' time. Taylor intercepted a forward pass by Fred Thomson on the ten-yard line and carried the ball over the line for Pomona's first score. The goal was missed, leaving the score 11-5. A few minutes later Vileinland, Pomona's center, picked up the fumble of an attempted forward pass and with a sixty-five-yard run scored Pomona's second touchdown. Gore tied the score by kicking the goal. The first half ended soon after this, with the score 11-11. 144 At the beginning of the second half Pomona, reinforced by five fresh men, rushed the ball to Occidentalls three-yard line, where they were held. This was Pomona's last chance to score, for after this one attempt they remained on thc defensive all the rest of the game. Thomson picked up Mahoney's fumble of VVieman's punt and with a beautiful run crossed the line, where he stood until downed by Lorbeer. There was a long discussion over the play, the referee finally declaring it a touchback. I On the kickout following this play, Captain Wficman was laid out and had to withdraw from the game. Fred Thomson was transferred to fullback and Kenny Gordon went in at end. A few minutes later Thomson missed a drop kick by only a few inches. Pomona punted out to Thomson, who tore through the whole Pomona team for the winning touchdown. Wfhen time was called Occidental had carried the ball to Pomona's ten-yard line by several long runs by Collins, Carus and Thomson, and were threatening a fourth touchdown. A F. N.

Meet Track, 1909 HHN the chapel bell rang up the curtain at the beginning of this college year, the track prospects were of the brightest. and for once in many moons we were going to have a chance with Pomona in the dual meet. The College had lost but one man by gradua- tion, and recruited some good material from the fourth-year class of the Academy, these with a few of the old veterans that were still on the job gave promise of the best team we could have hoped for. Then Dame flfortune got busy with her ax and when the smoke settled at the opening of the second semester. three of the best point winners had gone by the board. Coach Gorton, nothing daunted, started at the beginning to make a new team out of what was left. He instituted long cross country runs, in the hope of developing some distance men, but the only men that showed any flashes of class were Robertson, who was not eligible on account of the year residence rule, and Kenny Gordon, the college high jumper: neither of these men could be of any assistance in the big meets, so the gap was still empty. ' In the sprints we were up against it, being absolutely without a point winner, but in the inter-class meet George lelaer put on his spikes and covered the century sprint in 10 2-S seconds, and later ran a fast 150 two-twenty, filling this breach. The remainder of the work fell on Captain Rush, Fred Thomson, Uomier, Gordon and Carus. lt only takes one word to describe Speedy Rush, our gritty little Cap-that is Consistency, in its widest and best sense. Speedy is full of that quiet college spirit that counts, in the long run and which is the foundation of all the greater college successes. Fred Thomson was com- monly known as the other half of the track team. There is only one Fred Thomson in a generation, and it is too had they don't all make Occidental their stopping place. A day's work for Fred was to e11ter six events, score twenty-one or two points in the dual meets. while in the big conference he got on the score board for fifteen of the twenty- seven points scored by the College in that classic meet. Thomson with- out a doubt is the best hnrdler in the South, as some of the cuts in this edition will show by his position in several of the races this year. ln the weights he was only beaten by Trotter of U. S. C., who is a phenom, and llurek in the hammer throw. ln this latter event Fred had but a few weeks to work np his form, when Wieman was put out of the running by his accident on the South Pasadena car, but in spite of these facts he got the big ball out one hundred and twenty-two feet at the end of the season, breaking the College record. llonner, Carus and Gordon all did good work in their events, win- ning a majority of their points during the year. F. Thomson Winning the High Hurdles in Conference Meet 151 x. Carus in the Pole Vault The first dual meet of the year was-with Pomona at Claremont. After some very careful doping we were conceded a lighting chance for first honors, but the '09 hoodoo got busy with the first crack ofthe starteris pistol, and the whole meet was one grand landslide with Oxy on the slipping end. VVe did not score in the mile, two mile or the high jump, and in the low hurdles Thomson got tangled up in the ropes that Pomona uses to mark off the lanes, the object being evidently to save the lime bill. Freddie had to stop, kick himself loose, then go on, and after all this got second place. In this meet Occidental scored six firsts, the other points being made on seconds and thirds. Carus made a good showing in the pole vault, winning on his last jump from all the seasoned warriors of sage brush fame. Rush ran a whirlwind quarter, Sloane winning by a scant yard in 52 fiat. In the two-twenty Baer broke the College record, covering the distance in Z2 2-5 seconds. Of course, Fred Thomson came through with his usual twenty-one points-'nough said. The supporters of the VVesleyan creed were our next opponents, and what is more, we had them for once on our own grounds. At the be- ginning of the meet it was beyond our wildest ambitions to score more than 40 points, but as the meet progressed the score board only showed a few points difference, the Oxy stock began to go up. VVhen the last call for the relay was given Occidental had 56 points to U. S. Cfs 61: for Oxy to win the relay meant a tied score. For the first two laps the Methodists were ahead, then Speedy Rush took up the burden for the 152 , lE1-1. - F. Thomson in the Hammer Throw team and landed ten yards to the good after making up a like number on Reed, but Lennox was too fast for Bonner, and he passed him on the home stretch, boosting his team's score to 66. In this meet Oxy took six firsts and seven seconds, with six thirds. The features of the day were Rush's 440, l3onner's.880 and Thomson's work in the hurdles. Lennox was considered a sure winner in these last two-named events, but when the dust had settled Thomson was an easy winner. In the low sticks he made the exceptionally fast time of 25 4-5 seconds around two turns, breaking the existing college record held by Hagerman by one second. The time made in all the races was the fastest average in the conference this year and proves without a doubt that Occidental's track is the fastest in the South. The summary of the meet will be found with the scores of the year at the end of this department. Our next opponents were the Quakers, who made the grand sum total of 29 to 97. The boys with the biblical language were quite elated with the showing that they made against our men, as it was the largest score they were able to make during the season. There were two prin- cipal features in this contest, the first was in the half mile, when Bones Bonner won from Mills of Wliittier, and when Fred Thomson won the discus throw from Rig Renneker, with a heave of 107 feet and 10 inches. This event was substituted in the place of the relay, as the Quakers thought they would have more of a chance in the event than in a sprint- ing stunt. and the result was a sad surprise to their supporters. The season closed with the conference meet, which was held at 153 ,lg . 4- ' sh -...Q-. Close Race Between Baer and Sloane in the 100 at Pomona U. S. C. Second place was the most that was expected from our seven point winners. The starter got our goat in the 100-yard dash, and from then on the men fell down in some of the events, till there was no hope for second money. One thing must not be overlooked, that is the pluck of our men, not one of whom failed to linish a race in which he was entered. These are the kind of men that deliver the goods in the long run, and next year we can look forward to some of them winning the points that went to our opponents this year. The most exciting' event of this meet was the relay. Occidental did not expect any better than third, as both U. S. C. and Pomona had entered their fastest teams. In the first lap Dad Roberts ran a game race, but Case and Newmire had too much sprint at the finish and finished twenty-five yards to the merry. George Conrad then got on the job and developed class and form in big bunches. He made up ten yards on Case of Pomona and materially lessened the lead of the U. S. C. man liurek. This was Conracl s last stunt for his Alma Mater, and it was a hummer. George llaer got the pass and was off like a shot from a catapult. This was Prcxie's first quarter and he passed Carver, the Pomona runner, like he was staked out on a village common and gained yard after yard on Reed of U. S. C. Captain Rush got the pass ten yards ahead of Sloane of Pomona andaonly ten yards behind Lennox of U. S. C. Much to the surprise of all the fans the mighty Pomona captain did not gain an inch on Speedy, but on the other hand Rush almost 154 caught Lennox, the straining runners being only three yards apart at the finish, landing second place for Occidental. The conference meet was in itself a success, the only had feature was the lack of the proper officials and the poor method of running off the events, Only one more word concerning this meet. The College cannot expect thecoach to develop a winning team when all the avail- able material consists of seven men and half of them freshmen. lt is up to the College to get busy and boost athletics if they expect to compete with any of the other Southern California institutions. ,llut as long as they spend all the time in enforcing conference rules and'let the other departments severely alone we must be satisfied with third places. Coach Gorton showed that he was the man of the hour when he pulled through the season in the way he did and we will leave you to guess the result if he had had a legitimate amount of material. He is a hard worker and gets results and with all this is a good fellow. . O. R. HIRD. F. Thomson Winning the Broad Jump U. S. C.

W 53 The Suburban High School League. HE second annual track and field meet of the Suburban l-ligh School League was held at lflaer Park, March 27, 1909. The following high schools participated: Glendale, Azusa, Monrovia, Bonita, lglurbank, Compton, El Monte and San Pedro. Glendale ,High School won first place by a good lead of seventeen points over its nearest rival, the Citrus Union High School of Azusa. The Glendale boys succeeded in annexing six gold medals in addition to several silver, bronze and relay medals. The meet was the leading athletic attraction of the school year for the smaller high schools of Los Angeles County and about five hundred out-of-town students were in the bleachers. Each faction rooted ear- nestly for victory and the athletes, spurred on by the cheers of sup- porters, fought hard for the honor of their respective schools. The track was not in the best possible shape, being rather soft, owing to recent rains, and this in a measure accounted for the apparently slow time made in some of the track events. Nearly all of the seventy- five entries reported for the events and to the credit of all concerned the races and field events were run off without delay. Although no interscholastic records were broken the meet brought to light several young' athletes who promise to advance to the front ranks in local high school and college sports.

K, . .gh 1 ff '5Mu , 5 Baseball, 1909 HE past baseball season was unique in that it was the First time in the history of the institution that our team finished outside of the place money. Again, it was the first time in the annuals of southern collegiate ,baseball that U. S. C. ever won a game from Oxy, let alone a series. Pomona also got busy and grabbed off a series for the first time in six years. As to the Quakers, it was thought best to show a little kindness and split even with them, so they would have company as the cellar champions. As usual at the first of the season there were a lot of wild rumors about the classy material for the baseball artists. After the First few preliminary tryouts when the team began to show form, that malignant terror, the Faculty ax, got busy, sweeping all the fond hopes of the students before it in one fell swing. Coach Gorton got out his 'Eine-tooth comb and began raking for likely material, hoping to meet with some of the success that he did in the track season, but the old adage was again proved, that baseball players are 'born and are not made. After long hours of toil the coach got the team so that they knew straight baseball and could play the game for a few innings, but when 162 tl1e pinch came they would have a bad attack of stage fright and the fireworks were something wonderful to behold. This was ithe case in every intercollegiate game that Occidental played, and only once did it fail to prove fatal-in the first game with the Quakers, when it was Lockwood's masterly pitching that saved the day. VVith the bases full and only one down he pulled himself together and pitched six fast balls, striking out the next two batters. ' In both Pomona games it was the same old story, errors at the critical moment, did all the damage,for outside of these brainstorm spasms the team played good ball. ln the second Pomona game the score was tied up to the last canto. when with two men down a misdirected heave was the cause of the winning run. In speaking of this game it would be well to mention the box work of big 'Bob Patterson, our jolly south paw. Pat did not have any luck this year in winning' games, but still pitched crackerjack ball. For instance in the Santa Ana game he al- lowed only three hits and struck out fourteen of the heavy hitting celery pullers. As to the team itself, better results would have been obtained if the coach had not found it absolutely necessary to play the men out of their natural positions. This was the case with our captain. Pierce Thomas is one of the best second-base men in the south today, but because there was a dea1'th of catchers, Thomas was shoved behind the bat, where he did class A work, but this broke up the infield. Cherry Johnson was brought from the outfield to play the keystone sack, and at the end of the season was coming through with the goods. Une of the most versatile players on the team was George Baer, our left Helder. Isle was always coming through with the sensations of the game, in the nature of a spectacular catch or a good peg to the plate to cut oft a run. Preston, the keeper of the initial sack, was all to the merry through the season, his best asset being a level head. Ink Wieman had bad luck again, when in the first U. S. C. game he sprained his ankle sliding to third. This kept him out of the infield, where he would have been the most valuable. lXlcKenny at third base was our one best bet on the infield, nough said. Bishop, Sweet and Lockwood held down the remaining jobs in good form, Lockwood especially proving a man of all work, as he played nearly every position on the team. The main trouble this season was the lack of consistent team work, which can be laid to scarcity of material and the unwarranted stringency of the eligibility rules. But never mind: the team is a game bunch, and here's to better luck next year. The Yannigans fthis means the hard-fighting ineligiblesj tried to develop the 'Varsity, and next year, when the ban is removed, some of their faces will be seen on the 'Varsity. ' O. R.

Left Field Center Field Right Field Basket Ball REVIEW of the basket-ball season of 1908-1909 reveals with added emphasis the fact that it is well nigh impossible to produce a winning team without an indoor court. Regular systematic prac- tice was out of the question on account of an extremely wet winter. The players had a good portion of the Occidental fighting spirit, and on the whole showed the best form of any team that has ever worn the black and orange. Then, too, the student body woke up to the real value of the game for the first time and, especially on the occasion of the first Conference game with NVhittier, gave the team good support. l'rexy Ielaer, as captain, fulfilled his office admirably. I-le was constantly en- couraging the other players, urged them to regular practice, and as left forward played a fast, clean game. Let us look for a moment at what the team did in the eight games played. The season was opened with a trip around the kite-shaped track during the Christmas holidays, in connection with the Glee Club, games being played at Redlands, Colton and Fullerton. Each game resulted in a victory for Occidental by a safe margin. In the game at Colton, VVilson, who was playing a good game at center, sustained a severe sprain of his left ankle and Shorty'l McPeak took his place. In this accident we lost a strong, aggressive player for the entire season. Wilsoii had made good in the Compton I-Iigh School team and had an excellent chance for this year's Varsity. Our next game was with Pasadena High School, we took them into camp by the score of 23 to 13, but this hoo-doo score was more than we could stand, and although a good supply of horse shoes were brought in to brace up the players before the first game in the Conference schedule, they only partly did the work. In this first Conference game our men covered themselves with glory and although losing to the Quakers by a score of 37-24, the Occidental players handed their opponents a surprise, holding them to practically a tie score in the second half. Space forbids a detail description of the other three games, and inasmuch as we lost them all, it is perhaps wise to pass hurriedly over the record. Regarding individual players, we would not fail to say a word of the good work of Robertson, who, although not eligible for the Varsity, tl first four fames. Of the Varsity did consistent playing as guard in ie . g players, Baer and Hollister as forwards played well together, their passing and covering up of the opponent's guard plays being excellent. 167 Baer excelled at near goal shots, and Hollister had a very fine one- hand-over-head throw at right angles to the basket. Mcljealc as center, for a new player, is a comcr: he jumps well and covers his opponent. but is slow at following up the ball. lVl'cKenney, Hillery and McDowell all did well in the guard position, Mclienney being much the stronger of the three men: l-lillery and McDowell did some good covering up, but were too light for most of the forwards they had to buck against. Although when judged by mere scores the past basket-ball season would appear unsuccessful, it is well to remember that this is the first time that basket-ball has been really taken up in earnest at Occi- dental College. lt is the first time that an Occidental College basket- ball team has had the advantage of regular and efficient coaching, and it is only fair to Mr. llraden to say that to him is due the credit, not only for the raising of the standard of play which characterized this year's team,.but also for the increased interest shown by the students at large.

Sophomore Girls' Basket-Ball Team Interclass Champions Tennis g , LTI-lOLfGlel at the time this book goes to press the intercollegiate tennis season has not begun, it is most probable that the champ- ionship banner will as usual be ours. ln the men's events Merrill and Lowry, our representatives of last year, will again represent us in the singles and doubles and in the mixed doubles Merrill will be the mainstay of the team. ln the ladies' events. those who will make the strongest Hght for the honor of representing Oxy are Miss Riggins, Miss Osmond, Miss Gardner and Miss Richards. These four form a coterie which we are willing to support against any institution in the Southland. Hy reason of the preparatory clause in the intercollegiate agreement, Miss Merrill and Mace of the Academy will be ineligible. Last year more interest was shown in tennis than ever before, the courts being in demand on every day of suitable weather. Interest has been stimulated by the interclass tournaments for the .Presidents cup. The first leg on this cup, in 1908, was won by the class of 1910, the team being composed of Merrill, Garth, Miss Gardner and Miss Clark. The 1909 tournament has not yet been completed, and it is impossible to predict the winner. Only one intercollegiate tournament was held during the season of 1908-that with l-'omona, in which Occidental was victorious by the score of eight to three. This year tournaments will be held with both Pomona and U. S. C., and Occidental will make a hard fight to annex the championship.

Stafford Mabel Warcl Academy Debating ATE has not smiled as propitiously on the Academy debating as she might have, but if All's well that ends well, we ought not to complain, for, though the Academy lost her first two debates, she won the last one. The first debate was held in the College chapel November 20, 1908. The Academy debaters, John llickford and Leroy Church, upheld against Polytechnic High School the affirmative of the question, Resolved: That California should be divided into two states. The judges awarded the decision to Polytechnic 1995? to 169,',. The second debate was held at Pomona on january 15, 1909, Chris- topher Gaskell and John Clayton debating on the question, 'KResolved: That United States senators should be elected by popular vote. Pomona High School won, 197 Vw to 178 Vi. The last debate was held at Downey High School, March 26, 1909. The Academy had the affirmative of, Resolved: That Los Angeles should adopt the Des Moines plan of city government. john Anderson and john Clayton won the debate for the Academy, 195 to 1653. The individual scores for the live debaters of the year are: Anderson, 935: Clayton, 88 and 9153 Gaskell, 91: Bickford, 985: Church, 80. In debating as in oratory, the Moore Literary Society furnished all the representatives. The Academy only loses two of these debaters, and besides this, a debating class has been organized under Proof. Moore, so prospects will be good at the beginning of the new school year. Academy Oratory ACH year Occidental Academy holds an annual home oratorical contest, the winner of which represents the Academy in the Inter-scholastic Oratorical Association of Southern California. This year there were live boys, all members of the Moore Literary So- ciety, who entered the home contest: Fern Petty, john Anderson, Ches- ter Bradbeer, Oliver Lientz and Paul Lane. The contest was won by Fern Petty, with his oration on immigration, Menace or Opportunity --VVhich ? In the inter-scholastic contest, held at Polytechnic High School, February 19, 1909, Petty proved a close second to A. L. Tan, the Chinese orator of U. S. C. Academy. This orator represents the Los Angeles group in the final contest of all Southern California. Next year's prospects are particularly bright, since Bradbeer, who graduates, is the only one of the five contestants who will not be eligible to uphold the Academy's honor next year. 194 Academy Athletics HIS is the first year that the Academy has been separated from the College in athletic relations, and, despite certain drawbacks, the experiment fit can hardly be called an experiment, for it is permanentj has proved eminently successful. VVhen school opened we found that we had lost nearly all of our last year's team through graduation and other causes, and the next draw- back which we had to meet was lack of men who had had any foot- ball experience. The iirst game was with Santa Ana High School, and our inexperienced team went down to defeat by a score of 24-0. just before the next game several of the men were injured and we went to Throop with a .practically new team to meet defeat by a score of 22-0. The next game was with Long Beach, and about the middle of this game the fellows found themselves and from that time on they played good ball till the end of the season, losing at Pomona on a liuke and winning from California Military Academy by a score of 29-6. The basketball team had the best success of any of our teams, winning three out of the six games. The boys are learning to play fast ball and were able to defeat the Pomona Preps in a hard-fought game by a score of 24-22. We won from U. S. C. by a score of 22-20, and from Throop by a 59-17 score. We lost to Pomona, U. S. C. and Glendale by scores of 22-23, 16-17 and 15-48 respectively. Next year all the men except Trask, guard and captain, will be back and pros- pects are exceedingly bright for a fast team. At the opening of the track season it was very freely prophesied that we would not be able to beat VVatts. VVe had but three of last year's championship team back, and had no experienced men to take the places of those who were gone. It meant to develop a team from entirely new material. Our first meet was with U. S. C., and each team was confident of winning. U. S. C. was supposed to be especially strong in the sprints, but they failed to produce the goods at the tape, for Occidental won every one of the races except the hurdles. We also took all three places in the 220, 880 and shot put, and won the relay. We also won the sprints against Glendale, although we lost to them by a score of 76-46. At Santa Ana our men placed in every event, but were beaten by a 76-46 score. With this year's experience we ought to turn out a winning team next year. This year for the first time the Academy will put out a represen- tative base ball team. Money for suits was raised by an evening of vaudeville stunts, and the team has been given the use of the large plot of land at the corner of Avenue 50 and Monta Vista Street for practice. It is assured with the material which is on hand that a suc- cessful season will result. I. H. CLAYTON, A., '10. 195 Football Team Church, . . . Right lincl Walters, . . . . Right Tackle P.

So many productions and so well staged have not been seen for many years in theatrical circles, in fact, the public has been well nigh distracted in attempting to do justice to all the performances. The production of At Cosy Corners, by the Whitcomb-Rankin Company, has been running all year with phenomenal success. The success of this piece is assured by the earnest spirit shown by the principal actors in living up to their parts. There are numerous under- studies ready to fill the vacancies caused by the graduation of the joint stars. Mr. Harold Landreth has made a decided hit in The Land of Nod. He is well fitted to star in this piece, no time which may be put to advantageous use for the practicing of his part has been lost by this zealous young actor, and the public has shown its appreciation of his skillful work. Mr. Roy D. Frame starred during the early part of the year in the Dollar Mark. This play seemed suited to his ability, and he gave several renditions showing his faultless technique. A large stock company has put on the House of Silence at the Library Theatre. Daily matinees are given, but in spite of the earnest co-operation of the company, we regret to say that this has been a decided failure. Another actor new to Occidental this season is Mr. Casey Hayes, who has been starring in Love's Labor Lost. His work in this role has been very acceptable to the public. It is with regret that we hear he has decided to give up this dramatic life and retire. The comic opera, The Time, the Place and the Girl, which has been put on by Mr. Raymond Hunt, has attracted a great deal of attention. So far Mr. Hunt has met with much difficulty in finding a leading lady with the necessary qualifications, but it is rumored that he has at last found one, and will be able to open the season next fall with a finished production. Seldom has an actress met with a more instantaneous success than Miss Gladys Cole in the title role of Madam Butterfly. She has been playing to crowded houses all year. Mademoiselle Modistef' in which the principal part consists of wearing as many new dresses in as short a space of time as possible, has been very acceptably featured by Miss Ruth Martin. In her Fritzi Scheff has found a close second. Besides these there have been many others, such as Miss Ludwig in The Littlest Girl, Mr. N. Bercovitz in The Bath Comedy, and Mr. Roberts in The Little Minister, which, we regret to say, our space will not permit us to review. 207 Psychology: Descriptive and Explanatory.

Of course, the young lady you gave it to would doubtless prize it, but it might be more to the point to give her yours. Miss Grant: That was a very bright idea to make butter out of the white of eggsg you might apply for aipatent on it. Mr. Merrill: Don't you think it was a little hard on the junior girls to get engagedg they were hard up anyway. Mr. Rush: Those little personally conducted tours of Gor- don's Glen were a very fine thing, but one does not usually take more than seven young ladies walking during the course of one evening. Mr. johnson: That was rather a startling scene on the Mt. Wiilson trail, in which you took the leading part. You may be in the habit of fervently embracing old ladies, but you ought to break it to your friends gently. Miss Strobridge: Wfhen you give lectures on the uniniti- gated dub propensities of your friends, you should choose a more secluded spot. , Miss Bartram: You did quite right in refusing to speak to fthose young men. That was certainly a mean trick they played, and they deserved all they got. The Owls: Wfhen escorting young ladies home from an evening party it is not considered good form to tear down the surrounding buildings for their amusement. 216 Mr. Chapman and Mr. Paul: When discussing dates, soci- ology trips, dreams, etc., you should make sure that no one is listening. To whom it may concern: The lawn of a Presbyterian college is not the place to give whist parties. Mr. Smart: For the business manager of a Christian college it is hardly considered proper to prevaricate so consistently, even to such a wicked corporation as the Paciiic ,lileetric Co. The Sophomore Class: It was very considerate to your- selves to give that party to yourselves with the money you made from the student body. Miss Fisher: lt is not good form for a junior girl to ask a Senior man to take her to the banquet, but under the circum- stances you were justified in taking advantage of that Arroyo walk. Mr. Bird: ln calling upon a young lady, it is customary to remain in the room in which you are received rather than to follow your hostess all over the house. Miss Reiner: Do you think it is quite proper when unin- vited to a wedding to stand on the street corner in order to view the bridal party? X'Ve would suggest that if you care to view the church decorations you should come at least a half an hour early. Miss Gardner: NfVe must admit that you had a right to be aggravated when you found that your five-pound box of candy had but one layer of' the real thing, especially when the young man had sent it all the way to Capitola. 4 Mr. Elliott: Even in view of exceptional circumstances we 'can hardly consider that you were justified in calling upon young ladies with your wearing apparel reversed.

' T if Simmons: Lord, how it talks! L. R. McKenney: 'Q l :, VVho hath not owned with rapture-smitten frame The power of Grace. the magic of a name.

Night-shirt Peerade : What are these so withered and so wild in their attire That look not like the inhabitants of the earth, And yet are on it? Mary Reiner: I have a heart with room for every joy. Alva Gardner : A Bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. Leona Lodwick: There was a little girl Who had a little curl Right down in the middle of her forehead. 2 When she was nice, she was very, very nice, .
