The pa.ie you are about to turn are the result of many hours of effort, tho they have not been hours of drudgery. Jf ' e are conscious of having fallen a long, long way short of perfection but then -u-e icere strangers to the task. A perfect book requires both genius and money. We were neither niniuses nor millionaires. JV e do not wish hoxv- ever, to apologize for our attempt, humble and inadequate as it may he. Our aim thruout has been to imprison the spirit of the Tiger within these covers; to representa- tively and faithfully portray in word and picture all departments of Occidental life. JJ e know that we have left many things out, which might have been more fittingly included, but there will never come a time, we are sure, when that which we have put down will fail to cause the heart of him tvho once went to Occidental to beat just a little faster on beholding it. This is all we can justly desire. As the Class of 1925 deemed it a privilege to bring this La Encina into being, so does it now take an unreserved pleasure in presenting it to the members of the Occidental Household. - The Edilo B i E it=£ Given to Occidental in a spirit of friendship and devotion, may this splendid entrance ever keep guard over all that is sacred to the college — her honor, her ideals, and her tra- ditions; may it always extend a most sincere -welcome to those who come here for the first time and a hearten- ing farewell for those who depart; grant that it be in truth the gateway of opportunity — opportunity to ad- vance in culture, in thot, and in asso- ciations; and may it represent a chal- lenge for each incoming group to transcend the spirit and achieve- ments of its predecessors. U II n u u Dedication Occidental College is rich in her many friends — friends u- w have given of their energy and their substance to realize this dream -ice call Occidental.

It is a mat- ter of choosing rather than refusing. It is a matter of doing rather than denying. Occidental College desires that its sons and daughters, in tJieir expression, their choosing, and their doing, may in- crease in abundant living. It therefore commends a Way of Life that seems to it the best. It says that honesty is better than falsehood. It says that the urge to help should encompass the urge to have. It says that more light, more life, more love IS the will of God. It seeks through its associations and its educational offer- ings to discover this light, to inter f ret this life, and to stimulate this love, that they ivho bear the name may fulfill then- mission and be glad in the fulfillment.

No year has been found niore re- plete icith success and advancement. In scholastic recognition, in athletic achieve- ment, and in material and spiritual growth Occidental has progressed. Not the least part of this growth has been he realization of a dream, long dreamed. Occidental has for years past, felt a need, and that need at last has been satisfied. Lovers of Occidental College are united in a deep sense of appre- ciation to the donor of the great and splen- did gift of the new Mary Norton Clapp library. 1 Twenty-nine OQ B loE igloQ HBM U Don JValker, Oaidental ' s Representativi liaftgt ' hoit:, and some of Ins students Hmigrlwic Christum College Upon the campus of a college near a beautiful Chinese city set beside a river one may, at times, hear Occidental songs. For Occidental is not simply an institution of higher learning in Southern California, but a spirit which has gone over to the Orient; and Occidental in China is Hangchow Christian College. The province of Chekiang, which claims the college, has no other insti- tution of higher education for its thousands of young men. Hangchow Chris- tian College aims avowedly to provide such an education for the largest possible number of young man, that they may be developed for leadership in service to church, state, and human society. Thirty iOgEoin o Q!n BOBB «[ ' oHEoBMc EqIHEiiEEsHSdOPIs Hdiiircliojc (]hnsti(iii (Jollc ie Occidental s connection with Hangchow Christian College began in 1916, when Paul Kirkpatrick went there independently to teach. He was followed by his brother, Bruce, in 1917; and in 1919 the two colleges were formally affiliated, and Aileen Polhamus was ssnt over as Occidental ' s first official representative for a year ' s term of teaching. Hugh Creighton suc- ceeded her; and during the service of Eva Atkinson, who returned last sum- mer, the term was extended to two years. Donald Walker, of the class of 1923, is acting as the connecting link at the present time, and is doing a splendid work, not only in the class-room, but on the athletic field.

Meetings are held ths third Saturday of each month when the members meet for luncheon to discuss the ways they can interest the High School women in attending Occidental, and also to keep the Alumni in touch with the women of Occidental. The club has founded two scholarships. One is the Mary Carruth Cunningham Scholarship and the other the Bertha Horton Orr Scholarship. The club has spent much time this year in raising the money for the latter. This organ- ization has been doing much to represent Occidental among colleges of the South. Occidental ' ' () Club The Occidental O Club was organized to further the spirit of Occidental College. It is composed of Alumni, former students and loyal friends of Occi- dental. The O Club is working to extend the influence of the college through the Southland and to interest high school people in attending Occi- dental, and to keep the graduates banded together in the spirit of Occidental. The O Club makes loans to students whom it considers worthy of aid to help them through college. Such names as A. R. Buell and Dan Ham- mack are representative of those worthy of mention as men who have worked hard for the furthering of the work of the O Club. i Thirly-tliiu ' e 1 E B President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Class o( 1908 Bess M.

With the passing of each week we realize anew that the dream was not futile, elusive, but a vision of truth. A comparison of the campus of the end of the preceding year and that of this spring speaks for itself. At this time last year La Encina was rejoicing over the fact that our Mary Norton Clapp Library was in the making. This year it is in our possession, completed — one of the finest and most beautiful in the country, perfectly equipped, a place in which it is easy to spend hours of study and research. The dedication and opening took place on Founders ' Day in April, and the friends and alumni rejoiced with the immediate Occidental circle in the joy of the com- pleted gift. Here will be another spot about which the thoughts of Occi- dental may grow, as to the walls the ivies cling. Another part of the dream was the thoroughly felt need of a Women ' s Dormitory. It seemed a little distant last year, but the hope was fulfilled through the gift of Mr. William Msade Orr, which was also the Thirty-fi ' ve 1 Greater Occidental desire of Mrs. Orr. Bertha Harton Orr Hall will be the home of ths women of Occidental; and a more beautiful one is hard to imagine. Plans have been drawn for a U-shaped group, to be located in canyon near ths college, which is to be formed into a park of beauty. Ground will be broken on Commence- ment Day, and the reality will soon take the place of the vision. The thought of the Greek Theater has long been treasured. Last year the first step toward realization was made by the total gift of $71,000 from the class of ' 23. The cost of the first unit of construction is $35,000. One- seventh of that amount has been raised by the citizens of Eagle Rock, and there is fullest assurance that the completion of the amount required is a possibility of the near future. A lovlier spot cannot be found, accompanied by perfect accoustic properties; and in its Greek Theater much of the life and expression of Occidental will find its place. Within our own circle as well as farther away, may be found the same generosity and whole-hearted support. The alumni of Occidental have under- Tliirty-six Lookiiii H ' esliL-arA flEBfiE fl oEMBBBIBl taken the task of acquiring the necessary means for the erection of a man ' s gymnasium. With enthusiastic workers at the head, plans are progressing rapidly and promise completion by the first of next year. Instructions have been received to draw up plans for the Administration Building, which will circle Johnson and Fowler Halls. Another dream may be transformed into reality soon. Then looking down Alumni Avenue from this point we may see the Orr Memorial Gate, which has been completed this year. The gateway is constructsd in three separate units, of polished granite and a network of bronze. To those who enter our campus this will stand as further evidence of the generosity and love of the friends of Occi- dental. Plans for the Vetter Memorial Gate are under way. The gateway is to be erected at the Armadale entrance to the college. The Bohemian Club of San Francisco is responsible for this memorial to Louise Vetter, who was a true and sincere friend of Occidental. The Ridgeway entrance to the campus has also been provided foi. The citizens of Eagle Rock have under- 8 n c goin QEBla oOPlQ Greater (Jccideiital A Classii Structure taken the task of making the gate a reaUty. Then the approaches to the col- lege will speak for the growth of a more prosperous and beautiful college than ever before. Closely associated with the erection of buildings and splendid approaches, is the beautification of the grounds about the college. At the first assembly of the year announcement was made of the gift of Mr. Alphonso Bell toward the planting of the campus and tha improvement of the roads leading to the col- lege. Detailed and skilled landscaping has been undertaken, and full arrange- ments have been made for the planting of shrubs, trees, and flowers needed for Occidental Beautiful. The new library is growing into its own place, by means of the landscaping about it, which is due to the further generosity of the donor of the gift; planting has been extended to the three entrances; and the plants themselves are showing by rapid growth their eagerness to become a part of Occidental also. Ours is a campus of unusually lovely char- acteristics, and with such care, will be a place of appealing beauty and charm. Tlrirty-i ' iijlit oB ol So much for the outer. Changes and growth have taken place, also, within the realm of administration. Three new offices have been created — Dean of Men, Registrar, and Head of the Latin Department. Dr. Cleland of the class of 1 909, a most valuable and loyal member of the Occidental circle, will fill the office of Dean of Men. By this change in the system of offices. Dr. Burt will be Dean of the College, an office second only to that of President — and Dean Myers, Dean of Women, as before. Lowell Chawner, of the class of 1921, will hold the office of Registrar. Professor Hugh S. Lowther will head the newly formed Department of Latin. Behind all this growth, there must be, of course, a material source from which to draw. Due to President Bird ' s untiring enthusiasm and efforts, the Endowment Fund now stands at $700,000, in round numbers. All of this is invested in stocks and bonds, and the utmost care and thought is used in all disposal of such funds. Occidental stands free of all debt, and all possible success will inevitably result. New scholarships have been established by friends of the institution, evidencing trust in the growth of the college. u Sunticihl and S hiJok Thirty-nine n og oE ffBloE oe QlB Greater Occideiital Standards of scholarship have been raised this year, to complete and round out the advance toward a highsr plane in all lines.

In scholarship, in athletics, and ideals. Occidental is recognized throughout the country, and we are well on the road to continuous advancement.

KALJIAN The Woman ' s Tribunal is composed of a court of upper c ' ass women whose duty is is to enforce the traditions and laws of Occidental College upon the lower class women. At the first of the year the Freshmen and Sopho- mores are given a proclamation telling them what is expected of them and how thsy must respect their superiors. If the proclamation is not carried out to the letter the culprit apears before the Women ' s Tribunal and a judicious sentence is inflicted. The instilling of Occidental ideals and traditions from the beginning of collage is its greatest aim. Forty-jive ■B flgSoE iOlO m J. LINDQUIST P. ELLSWORTH G. FORDEN M. McDONALD T. WESTGATE E. FINNELL The success of the student activities this year has been due largely to the co-operation of the various managers. They have faithfully fulfilled their respectiva duties. Each has given of his time and services for the black and orange. All were capable managers and their work is commendable. The responsible position of football manager was held by Jerome Lind- quist. Jerome showed the true Tiger spirit and his excellent work will be remembered. The trips and practice games were the results of his efforts. Then when basketball season rolled around, George Forden proved an able manager. The ten day northern tour is just a part of the good work George has done for Oxy. Tevis Westgate was manager of the championship conference track team which invaded the east, bringing home many laurels from the Kansas and Penn Relays. The tennis team had a successful year with Elmas Finnell again in charge of the racket wielders. The varsity basketball season has been longer than usual and Mac- Donald has been busy up until the final exam. The bookstore has prospered largely through the good management of Phil Ellsworth, who has been conscientious and hard-working from start to finish. u forty-six In 1920 the present graduating class entered Occidental as the largest group of Freshmen recorded in campus history. During the first year they became imbued with the famous Tiger spirit which carried them into eager participation in all college activities. In athletics the class of 1924 has paved the way to a national recognition of Occidental. In dramatics they produced Nothing but the Truth as a Junior Play and The Bacchanal as the Senior production of a Greek tragedy. in debating, music, college journalism, and scholarship, the members have worked unceasingly. The class of 1924 has watched Occidental develop, under the leadership of President Bird, into an institution v hich we proudly proclaim our Alma Mater. New buildings have been erected, the endowment has been in- creased, the faculty enlarged, the curriculum broadened, and the campus beautified. Every year brings our college closer to the ideal which has been conceived as a goal toward which we all strive. The Senior Class leaves these halls with deep regret, but with a firm resolve to live, as Alumni, in accordance with the ideals and teachings of Occidental. J.ACK COSGROVE.

The first social event of the year was the Junior banquet held at the University club. The class feels that this was a step forward in the advance- ment of school social functions as it was practically the first time a Junior class has ever attempted a formal banquet. The affair w as handled very successfully by Margaret Crawford, then vice-president of the class. We all regretted most sincerely that Peg was forced to give up her activities in the Junior class because her credits permitted her to become a member of the graduating class. Miss Alice Johnson has capably filled the office of vice-president since the resignation of the former officer. Her efficient handling of the Junior- Senior banquet at the Vista del Arroyo, which of course is one of the most important social events of the year, bespeaks of her success of office. The one important feature of the Junior class every year is the publi- cation of the La Encina, the Occidental year book, and the present volume is the result. The Junior class feels that this year has been one not only of good time and fun, but also of accomplishment and the successful passing of another mile-stone on the road to graduation.

The success of the Sophomore Banquet, the Soph Stunt Night, the Soph-Senior steak bake and many other interesting events, speak for them- selves in the matter of hospitality and originality. Kenneth Wilson, our active and very able president, has carried us through a most unusually successful year by his fine leadership. He is an all around man and keenly interested in every phase of college activity. Class Unity and Service to College is the motto which has indeed been lived up to by the v hole class. The majority of Sophomore men have played important parts in foot- ball, track, basketball, baseball, swimming and tennis, and many have made names for themselves in these sports. The spirit of Occidental has become a part of the life of every Sopho- more and the true loyalty and high principles connected with every phase of Occidental life will be upheld by every member of the class of ' 26.

On September 1 5th over two hundred bewildered high school graduates appeared on the Occidental campus and tried to feel at home and act collegiate. And thus was born one of the best classes in history. The Frosh, true to all predictions, plunged immediately into their college duties and soon a great Frosh football team advanced over the horizon, and fol- lowing them in massed array came other Frosh as if to prove the versatility of the class. Debaters, the greatest in years, singers taking the Glee Clubs by storm, basketball men of great renown, plodding newspaper workers, track stars and tennis players and the vifonderful baseball crowd, all came and took their place behind the leaders they had chosen, Neal Archer.

There was not a single game played this season in which she did not show high class football; thereby gaining the respect and admira- tion of every opponent. With nine letter men returning from last year, prospects for a champion- ship team were encouraging, to say the least; and although football and a list of injured in the hospital are always associated with each other, it seems that we had a few more injuries than our share this season. Priaulx, our star center from last year was taken off the line-up for the remaining part of the season because of a broken leg received in the third conference game. Most of our best men were on the bench at some time during the season and it seemed that fate did not favor us. However, Occidental was not discouraged, for Captain Spangler and Argue as ends formed a combination which would be hard to match on any team; they were the fastest couple Oxy has had in some time. Then, Ridderhof, captain elect, showed up to be the best full back in the confer- ence when it came to making yards through the opponents ' line. Several other names of both backfield and line men deserve mention for their superior playing; in fact all would have to be mentioned for all the men worked their hardest as a unit and Occidental is mighty proud of them for the spirit they showed and for the honors they won. Sevfniy-five L5iiao[ (dSIdIs CAPTAIN TONY SPANGLER, the man who generaled one of the best teams Oxy has ever had, has been an Occidental football star for three consecutive years, and for the past two seasons has been one of the fastest ends Oxy has known. This season Tony has shown himself to be the gamest captain in the conference. Play- ing with a lame ankle a great part of the season, he was second to no one in the conference COACH PIPAL is the man who has brought Oxy ' s football squad to a place where they can ably dispute any con- ference championship title. He has shown his ability as a man trained in football science, by the strong teams which have devel- oped during that time. He has worked unceasingly to establish Occidental ' s ideals on the field and to develop the strongest, hardest fighting team in the con- ference. PIERRE PRIAULX was one of the best centers of the south before his accident. He was a man who used his head to advantage, one who never stopped fighting, and one who had a re- markable ability to analyze the offensive plays of the opponent. He represents a leader of the fin- est type. lE i 1 OCCIDENTAL vs. SAN DIEGO Occidental fought with San Diego Teachers ' College for the first victory of the year. This being the first opportunity our men had to show their ability in action, no such thing as dope existed, but they made a fine demon- stration of their supremacy over the teachers by defeating them by a score of 33-7. In this game Ridderhof and Ebers both showed the coach just what he could expect from them during the season of 192 3. The work of our ends. Spangler and Argue, was not a surprise, but they showed that, good as they may have been the preceding year, they were going to be better this season. OCCIDENTAL vs REDLANDS Game number two with the Bulldogs added a second victory to Oxy ' s credit. Since this was the first conference game of the season, possible results could not be predicted before the contest; however the final score 3 3-0 was much more than satisfying. It showed us that the team was going to make every other conference aggregation prepare for a fight. The game was a spectacular affair from start to finish; especially may this be said of the second and fourth quarters, for it was during these periods that Oxy made all her scores. OCCIDENTAL vs. STANFORD October twentieth witnessed simething new in Occidental ' s football his- tory. The first time Stanford University ever played a game with an institu- tion of the Southern California Conference was her game with Oxy at the L. A. Coliseum. Although the score 42-0 was a one-sided story of Cardinal superi- ority, the game was a fight from start to finish. Our men gained the respect of every man there who knew anything about football for their consistent fighting against a superior machine. The Cards succeeded in making 1 4 points Aijainst the Cardinal Sleam-Roller Sevenly-sci ' rn B pi pgKoeeciai CAPTAIN-ELECT DAVE RIDDERHOF, the big fullback, has played on the varsity squad for the past two seasons. Dave plays, consist- ently, a game of football that can ' t be beat. He is the kind of a man that makes yards against any defense the opposing team can muster. Tarzan is unusually qualified to lead Oxy ' s eleven in even a more successful season than this has been. TUFFY CONN took care of our Freshmen squad this season and has produced a team which will add a big list of championship material to the varsity next season. As a half- back Conn is second to none, and as coach he has developed some very promising material. Sevcnly-rii lit I aPls Football every quarter except the third, during which Oxy held them to no score. The game was intensely interesting thruout, for our men showed soma real foot- ball class, and as a result were favored as the best aggregation of the con- ference. OCCIDENTAL vs. WHITTIER Both Oxy and Whittier were tied for first place in the conference, each team having 1 000 per cent standing, but after November 3 Whittier was forcad to give first place to Oxy by taking defeat on their own field by a score of 12-3. The game was probably the most exciting one of the season for Tiger rooters. After the first play of the game, our center, one of our strongest linesmen, Priaulx, was carried off the field with a badly broken leg, disabled for the rest of the season. This unfortunate accident had a negative effect on the Oxy men and the half ended with Whittier three points in the lead resulting from a single field goal. TTie second half, however, was a different tale, for Oxy was determined to win, and during the vifhole second half the Whittier eleven were out-playad in every phase of the game. Ridderhof made every one sit up and take notice by his ten, fifteen, and twenty-five yard gains right through tha center of the line. Argue and Spangler showed their starring ability in making a touch-down apiece by completing long forward passes. Every man on the team played a splendid game of football and saved the day for Occidental. OCCIDENTAL vs. CALTECK On November 1 2 Oxy met one of the best teams of the conference in Rose Bowl, and it proved to be the hardest fought she has played with Calteck in years. With Argue and Priaulx on the lame list. Occidental knew it would be a battle to the last ditch and during every minute of the contest they put all the fight they possessed into a game though odds were against them. During the first part of the game Spangler was forced off the field with .3 fi S n Avenyinij Priaulx Sevenly-nine ooEe lOla ip olQ e goH CLARENCE EBERS needs no introduction to any- one who knows anything about football history in Southern Cali- fornia. As star on the Long Beach eleven he came to light as a high class player, and for the past tw o seasons has rated as one of the best halves in the confer- ence. GORDON SHOAF, who filled the position at quarter a great part of the season, has had two years ' experience with the varsity squad. He showed him- self a man capable of his job, both at running the team on the field and at punting. Shoaf is another man that we hate to CLIFF ARGUE came to college with no football experience to his credit, but the past two seasons he has starred consistently at the position of end. He ranks with Spangler, being especially good at handling long passes and displaying lots of speed. He was very well quali- fied for his position and right- fully deserves every praise. All- conference end. L on ffaioiQ oi I a Footbdll — 1 [ an injured knee, leaving the team without either of her star ends. Oxy made — n the first score of the game at the beginning of the third quarter when Ebers [] _ ' ' made the most spectacular run of the whole game; receiving the kick-off =? he ran 85 yards for a touchdown. The remaining part of the game however, PCalteck played superior football, and by numerous short passes and line bucks crossed Oxy ' s line twice, giving them the victory by a 1 3-6 score. OCCIDENTAL vs. S. B. U. C. i -- Five days after the Calteck game Oxy met Southern Branch on her own i -—[ field. With five new men in the first string line-up, resulting from injuries, jr it looked as if Oxy would have to take another defeat, but they gave every- :i J one a good tasting surprise; they fetched the Bacon by a 20 to 6 score. A Wheeler playing at full-back surprised everyone by his punting, and eHazeitine showed himself a scrappy end and a safe man to trust with forward passes. Westgate, Smith, and Shoaf also played a fine game. OCCIDENTAL vs. POMONA The final game of the season was staged with our old rival, Pomona, on f ° 1 the opponents ' field, November 24. [ j= During the first three quarters the ball kept pretty close to the center of rZZj the field, neither team making a single score. Only once did Pomona reach 1 — 1 | Oxy ' s 4 yard line, and once Oxy carried the ball to Pomona ' s 10 yard line. r 2-. The last quarter however Pomona succeeded in taking the ball across the )| f| line for a touchdown making the score 6-0 against Oxy. With the game fast i coming to a close and with the score against them, Oxy made a final sprint Ip for a score. Ridderhof, who had been kept out most of the game with a lama Lq shoulder, came back into the fight, and the ball started a steady march for 0 1 Pomona ' s goal. Oxy had the ball, first down, on Pomona ' s 8 yard line with 1 1 — r but one minute to play, when it was fumbled and she lost her only chance for I , — J a touchdown. s [H G PISMSP FAUCHIE SMITH, the little man who pilots the men over the field, is a coming quar- terback for Oxy. This was his first season ' s experience with the Varsity and he did some fine work, promising to improve in the two years ahead of him. EMORY SNODDY, a Sophomore also, played at guard position. Though he weighs one hundred and ninety pounds, there isn ' t an ounce of dead weight in him, and he can be depended upon to add con- siderable strength to any team. He does a great deal in helping to move the line of scrimmage towards the opponents ' goal. JOCK STEVENS played his position at tackle in exceptionally good style, for his first year with the Varsity. He won an undisputed position as first string tackle by his superior playing. He is a player that makes us bet strong on the team of next season. loE igloIo il ' SB sMdO dB ART GAREY has been playing with the team for three seasons. At the begin- ning of the season he was shifted from the backfield, where he has played t he past two years, to the line, where he developed into a fierce tackle. Art plays with the team clear through and is a mighty dependable battler to have as a team mate. DALE PURSEL has had to compete with Span- gler for the place at end; conse- quently, he has developed speed, and in addition he is, literally, a man who never says quit. Dale is a player well qualified to take Captain Spanglers place. d U TEVIS WESTGATE was one of the men who fought for a position at left half. He is an experienced man at the game and a valuable asset to the team. He plays a consistent game and puts lots of pep and spirit into the offense. Eiff ily-t n er goE B oQ MALCOLM MacDONALD has shown some real spirit by his consistent work throughout the entire season. He plays a steady, dependable game of football and is always ready to take his place in the line and do more than his share. SWEDE RUNDQUIST was a man chosen to develop Oxys line, because of his remark- able success as a tackle on the University of Illinois eleven; he was selected as an All-western tackle during his college days, and was coach of Michigan Aggies for a season. Rundquist has laid foundations for a big improvement in Oxys linesmen this season. PETER POOLE is Occidental ' s efficient trainer. So long has he been in the service that he might well be called Old Faithful. ROY WHEELER played his first season on the Var- sity this year. He proved to be one of the surprises of the season, showing himself a wonder, both in the line and at fullback. Wheeler is another who is going to be a star in the coming season. i - r Tl Eitjlity-jnu BMt Lt=I CHUB CREIGHTON played his second season with the varsity this year. Chub began the season as guard, but later he was shifted to center, filling Pri- aulx ' s place. There is not a man on the team that can beat his fighting spirit. BULLET HAZELTINE. a surprise from the frosh squad of last year, ran Argue a close second as end. Bullet plays a scrappy game of ball and next season ' s aggregation will have a star player in this boy. BOB DAVIDSON deserves much credit for his con- stant, conscientious work, all sea- son. He has shown the spirit we are proud of, and one who sticks by a thing until the job is done. Davidson played a strong game at guard and has shown some real improvement in the science of football. Eiff ily-fiTf ?Jf ' t=3, P H n Lt=3 U U I i At the opening of the season, Tuffy Conn, a far famed star of O.A.C. was secured to coach the Frosh squad. The material that turned out at the beginning of the season looked more promising, both in quantity and quality, than a frosh turnout had looked in several years, and at the close of the season they were tied with Pomona Frosh for second place in the conference. Their games added up to six victories and two defeats. They succeeded in defeating Lincoln and Dinuba Highs, La Verne college, and Caltek frosh; tied Pomona Frosh, and lost to Bakersfield High and Southern Branch Frosh. The material developed during the season will add much support to the varsity. Wells, full-back, Pitzer and Purser, halves, Godett and Teachout, ends, and Brobst, quarter, all are men who showed a superb brand of football quite frequently thruout the season. The team as a whole was exceptionally well organized before the end of the season, and every man of the squad con- tributed to the fine spirit and team work. Eighty-seven o[B ttg aIS i][ Ready lor the North — Freshmiiu and Varsity Teams n BASKETBALL SEASON At the opening of the season, the turnout of promising material pre- dicted a championship team; however, before finishing the conference schedule, the dope was sadly upset. As usual without a gym, practice began weeks late and interruptions in practice, due to lack of gymnasium facilities, were frequent. After the third conference game, three of our first string men were compelled to be vaccinated, while on a trip in the northern part of the state made by the whole team, and as a result were forced to warm the benches for the greater part of the remaining season, while coach Nichols did his best to work others into their places. But in spite of discouragement, the coach is all set for a big start and a successful season next year. Occidental was very forunate in her selection of coaches. Sid Nichols was secured rather late in the season, but he certainly did his best to organize a crack team from his material. He proved to be very well liked among the fellows and is a man who knows the game. Sid never quits and the fight spirit bristle out all over him. Oak Smith, freshman coach, was an out- standing star center of Drake University, an institution known for its cham- Eujhty-eii lit pionship teams. Harold Wagner, this season s Captain has played three years with the varsity and during that time has been the main support of the team. Wag is our star forward and will leave a vacancy difficult to fill. Four men played guard position regularly. Larry Johnson playing his second year, was a consistent and hard fighter; he also played center; Clarence Ebers lived up to past reputation and couldn ' t be fooled; Dave Ridderhof in his first season surprised the conference by his hard, fast playing; Roy Wheeler also played his first season as a clever guard. Among those who played forvifard positions were Bob Sackett, who did some fast stepping; Bill Maclnnis, who had a good eye for the basket, and played his first season; Bullet Hazeltine, a man of football fame, who was just as good in basketball. Center position was ably taken care of by Clair Morrow, a new man in basketball, and Fred Bennetts, who did his stuff in his second year of varsity competition. F res liDi till Basket ball This season has seen one of the best Frosh aggregations Occidental has known for many a season. They displayed the skill and team work of an experienced varsity, and next year ' s team will profit considerably with these additions. Captain Neal Archer, Solly Mishkin, and Hammersly as forwards, H. Black as center, C. Black and Gregory as guards and several others who were ready and well qualified to fill vacancies made a combina- tion which took defeat from but one team in the conference, namely. South- ern Branch Frosh, and that after two hotly and closely contested games. They were also very successful while on a trip north with the varsity and converted a majority of the games played into victories.

Ti„, k Tr, IE Three times track champions of the Southern CaHfornia conference is the record attained by the Occidental cinderpath team for the past three seasons, and to top it off, ten sturdy Tiger athletes made an invasion of the east which proved to be the most successful trip ever undertaken by a Southern California institution. Coach Joseph Pipal deserves all the praise that can be given an athletic coach for the way in which he has developed the Oxy track ath- letes since assuming the helm a few years ago. The Timberwolf has given his heart and soul to the sport which he loves so well and the success can be seen by looking over the accomplishments of the Oxy teams. Having won the Conference meet, and all meets before that, including the contest with Pomona, track work was not yet over for a few of the cinderpath stars, for Coach Pipal announced his intentions of invading the east with a ten-man picked squad. Alumni, students and firends of the insti- tution put their shoulders to the wheel and raised sufficient money to send the athletes to the Kansas and Penn Relays and here the men gathered more glory than they had ever known before when they made a clean sweep at Lawrence, Kansas, and then won the college relay championship of America at Philadelphia. Never before had the name of Occidental been spread through the United States as it was following the victory of the Tigers in the midwestern and eastern meets. Occidental track teams will continue to hold their own with their rivals, but the Tiger squad will miss the services of five Seniors who competed their last this season. Cliff Argue, iron man supreme; Captain Phil Ellsworth, Tony [ Spangler, Johnny Powers, and Leroy Goodenough will hang up their abbre- viated costumes for good now, but their names will be long remembered by Occidental in years to come. Three sprint stars who showed their heels to the best in the south were claimed by the Tigers. Cliff Argue, Phil Buckman and Bud Nash proved themselves to be a trio of speed burners that were hard to beat. Argue completed his college athletic career in a blaze of glory when he set a new record of 9 4-5 seconds in the hundred yard dash, the former record of ten flat having stood for a number of years. The Oxy Iron Man centered his work on the century this season with the above success. In every race he was hard pressed by his team mates, Buckman and Nash, and the latter two will be back next year, which promises well for the Tigers in this event. The above trio also garnered points consistently in the 220, and Buck- man tied the conference record of 22 seconds in the conference meet closing the season. In the conference meet these three men placed one, t wo, three in the hundred and the 220, which best showed their strength over their rivals. The Oxy squad also claimed a galaxy of quarter mile stars in Johnny Powers, Tony Spangler, Herb Morey and Bronson Buxton. Powers was easily the class of the conference in the 440 and he was hard pressed by Spangler, who w as the real hard luck man for his third season. The former also ended his career at Oxy by performing his best at the close of the season, defeating the famous Koppisch, of Columbia, at the Penn relays and adding laurels to his crown. Captain Phil Ellsworth was his old time self in the half mile, leading the Tigers through to the conference banner in a capable fashion. Phil also a S Po-iLfis Breaks Sc ionI Record In the UO at the Conjereiiie Meet took his turn at the quarter this season and ran third man on the relay in the closing meets of the season. Kenny Montgomery, after a bad start Aus to sickness, came through with flying colors before the season was over and led the best in the conference to the tape in the final meet of the year. With Ellsworth out Montgomery will fill in the gap nicely for the next two seasons. Nick Carter established himself as the greatest miler in Southern Cali- fornia this season when he won the conference without competition in 4:28. Carter was never hard pressed through the entire conference season and his time was the best to be recorded in the south in the past ten years. Dwight Miller came to the front as a miler this season also, and won against the Southern Branch in fine time. Ernest Giffen and Reginald Lavelle represented the Tigers in the two mile jaunt and both proved themselves adapted to the long winded event. The two fought it out generally for honors and first one and then the other would come in ahead. Bud Nash returned to the broad jumping pit once more after a layoff of a year caused by a broken leg and showed promise of again getting into form. Argue, Creswell and Fulton also performed in the leaping event and managed to garner considerable points during the season. Injuries prevented Fulton from competing in his laest form, but he and Creswell and Nash Ninety-foil . =Q have another season to look forward to. Creswell was a find in this event, not having tried out prior to this season. Laroy Goodenough pole vaulted his way to a new record in the confer- ence of 1 2 feet 9 inches and his final year at college proved to be the most consistent. Don Condit and Cyril Wall came to ths front as hurdlers this season, with the former grabbing points in the highs and Wall in the lows. Ridderhof, Argue and Fulton performed for the Tigers in the shot put- ting department and Ridderhof also hurled the discus, threw the hammer and javelin, which was quite a day ' s work for one man. Dave again broke the college mark in the last named event and did consistent work in the other events. Roy Wheeler and Jock Stevens assisted him in the discuss and hammer. Argue and Bradshaw were a pair of mighty good high jumpers, although Cliff did not practice this event much during the season. Bradshaw did his best work at the close of the season by clearing six feet and with another year to perform he will probably better this height an inch or two.

Argue was high point man with I 2 points to his credit, and Ridderhof broke the Oxy record in the javelin throw by heaving it I 60 ft. 1 in., while Carter ran the mile in a surprisingly short time. This meet was far from a one-man meet for places were won by 24 different men, 9 of whom were sophomores; this shows a representative team and a strong future. OCCIDENTAL— U. S. C. On March 9 an Oxy U. S. C. meet was held for the first time in three years. The race was an ear to ear raca until the last few events when U. S. C. edged into the lead and finished the day with a score of 8 1 to 50. Argue was high point man of the meet with 1 3 points to his credit once mora. Carter and Spangler won the mile and the 440 respectively in a spectacular fashion. Our men did splendid work. OCCIDENTAL— POMONA As in the past two years the Pomona meet was decided by the relay and the result of the meet decided the conference championship. The final score was 74 I 6 to 65 5 6 in favor of the Oxy squad. Argue, as in tha other meets was high point man, and established a new conference record for the I 00 yard dash, covering the distance in 9 4 5 seconds. Goodenough also caused much excitement when he cleared the bar at 12 ft. 5 4 in. in the pole vault. Carter, Powers and Ridderhof also proved to be the best men in their events. This was the most exciting meet of the season. u .■Injur Finislnni Fnui -Miin (Jiuiitn -M ilr Rrliiy ill Kiinsti.i Rrliiys [S, [n3 Nhifly-srvfn ooEogicE o oE ifSloini b lM Track CONFERENCE MEET The conference meet took placs April 8 at the L.

Oxy men broke several records: Powers cut a nsw conference record of 30 2 10 sec. in the 440. Buckman tied the conference record by crossing the tape in the 220 in 22 sec. Carter hung up a new record for Oxy when he covered the mile in 4 min. 28 8 10 sec, and Montgomery sur- prised all fans when he took first in the 880, and Bradshaw took first in the high jump. All the conference teams had to take off their hats to Oxy once again. CONFERENCE— STANFORD The all southern conference team journeyed to Stanford for a dual meet. The team was outclassed by the Cards but they put up a hard close contest, the meet being more interesting than the final score of 8 7-44 vv ' ould indicate. The big surprise of the meet was a new conference record by Goodenough when he sailed over the bar at 12 ft. 9 in. in the pole vault. All the men w ere in fine shape and made a good record. KANS. S RELAY CARNIVAL One of the most daring things ever done by a college the size of Occi- dental was staged when a picked squad of 1 men travelled east to Kansas to the Kansas relays. Here they copped first in five relays against some of the largest universities in the country. The events won were: 4-man mile, the four man two mile, the quarter mile, and half mile, and the medley relay. In addition to this Buckman and Nash took third and fourth respectively in the open hundred. The ten man squad left Kansas for Pennsylvania with 20 gold watches, five silver cups, and three medals. Four of the relays established new records at the Kansas relays. All these feats were done in competition with many institutions, one of the most remarkable records ever made by such a squad. OCCIDENTAL— PENN RELAYS In Pennsylvania the fellows met with misfortune the first day but made up for all losses the following day w hen they set a new Penn relay record in the 4 man mile relay which gives Oxy the national intercollegiate cham- pionship in that event. The team making this record was made up of Ells- worth, Buckman, Powers, and Spangler. In addition to this Oxy took second in the half mile relay, and fourth in the sprint medley; Goodenough took fourth in the pole vault and Argue took fourth in the 220 in competition with the best track men of the east. We hail this as the greatest day Oxy has known in track feats and the ten men: Ellsworth, Argue, Buckman, Powers, Spangler, Montmogery, Nash, Goodenough, Carter and Morey deserve much for the wonderful record they have given Occidental. Onr IhinJird Tii-o aaEoSEoE lon BElQlS a ' lC sSPias Track Cross Country Season Our cross country squad this season failed to make a showing in the conference meet, due to the lack of material showing an interest in this long winded activity. Giffen, Danilevitch, Lavelle, and D. Miller were the lead- ing men for the varsity, while H. Miller, Campbell, and Evans shone for the frosh. Oxy was unable to enter a team in the conference meet because of a scarcity of candidates, consequently lost all chances of placing. Frosh Track Occidental in the past few years has established a record in track of which she is justly very proud. She is anxious that that record may be upheld by the incoming classes in years to come. Last year the class of ' 26 contributed many valuable men to this year ' s varsity, and judging from the meets of the class of ' 2 7 this season, Oxy need harboi little fear for the future. The frosh squad this season has had several dual meets with prep schools and has bean defeated but once thruout the entire season and that by San Diego State Teachers ' College. Shaver, this season ' s captain is an outstanding man and promises to be a strong contender for the hurdles; Brodhead and Gregg are two other high speed men in the sprints, and Tanner is another promising man who clears the hurdles in great style. These ie-w do not complete the team for there is a complete squad of loyal Oxy trackmen who have done commendable work this season and who will bid strong for the team in the coming season.

As this goes to press Oxy ' s team has played four conference games, winning one and losing two. One of the two lost, however, was not decided until the eleventh inning. This shows a rating far from the bottom. As a whole the team is playing good ball, show- ing some real class in fielding, but as yet do not seem to have found an eye for batting, which has been a severe handicap. The men are working hard to develop a strong aggregation and have shown considerable progress since the season opened. The luckiest thing which happened has been the securing of Clark as coach, who directed baseball here in 1911 and 1912. He is a remarkable player himself, a well liked personality, and a competent coach who knows the game down to the last minute. Working with the coach. Squint Fulton, captain of the nine, is filling one of the biggest jobs on the team, that of pitcher. In addition to his ability as a pitcher. Squint is rating a high batting average this season. On the infield, Tanaka, shortstop; De Mandel, second baseman, and Hazeltine, catcher, are distinguishing themselves by their fast, well-chosen plays; while Westgate and Westlund are doing a ball-tight game in the outfield. Every man wearing a suit is humping for Oxy, and the remaining part of the season promises to be one of close competition for c leading place in the conference. One lluiiJrvd Five ,psEoEEtB « poIH 5Slo[n i]gilo[ai M .gitm dS oIS u 1 Frosh Baseball Lester Haserot had the greatest Freshman baseball team in the history of Occidental thru a perfect season. Besides being a capable leader. Captain Haserot starred in the field and at bat. Lester plays shortstop and third base. The victories of the Peagreeners were partly due to the wonderful pitching of Arthur Teachout, Harris Hitch and Merrill Gregory. Bud turned in the best performances, but Hitch and Gregory are expected to take their regular turns on the varsity next year. The catching was done by Victor Conde. Conde was the regular per- former, and his backstopping was of a type to mark him as a varsity candidate next season. First base was held down by Solly Mishkin, about the best baseman who ever handled a glove for Oxy. Solly carried off batting honors, also. Neal Archer was a corking second baseman. Michael Godett performed at the torrid corner — third base — in great style. Albert Stein didn ' t let any fly balls get loose in left field. His fielding was hailed with delight. Marion Hammersly took care of center field, and whenever an injury left a hole in the infield, Stub was on the job as a first class infielder. Ralph Deaver wandered around in the tall and uncut of right-field and took care of all flies in that territory. The whole team had an exceedingly high batting average and should prove valuable next year in strengthening the varsity. The Frosh were also aided this year in having some capable substi- tutes ready to fill in at any time. The ability of the whole Peagreen squad is unquestioned, and the season of 1925 should be one of continued victories for the varsity with these valu- able players available. IE One llinuircd V.ujht aD BoE i EE SEoEEo ' QH At the close of the season Oxys net artists held third place in the con- ference, after having won four games and lost two. This record, similar to last seasons, is a result of loyal work on the part of Palmer, Boice, Finnell, Creighton, and Raymond, who showed rare skill in twisting the rackets, and some fast -work in covering the court. They began the season by winning four straight victories against Loyola, Whittier, Redlands, and Caltek, but Pomona caught them on an off day and walked away with the points, and the following week Southern Branch copped the title by defeating Oxy. In the singles both Finnell and Boice ended the season with four victories and two defeats, while Palmer and Creighton won three out of six. From this squad Creighton will be the only man to return, as the other men have each played three consecutive years with the varsity. This will leave a considerable hole in the ranks, but there are several promising players in the lower classes to be developed, whom we look to for next season s success. One HuidreJ Nine oElcB o m u h dEPIb SPS Swimming is fast becoming a prominent sport; this season has sean advancement over previous years in the instruction and support given this activity. Claude Turley has been procured as coach, and, although a student himself, ha comes with considerable experience, having been director of swimming in Tacoma Y. M. C. A., and having been prominent in this activity both in College and in the U. S. Marines during the war; it is expected that he will develop a group of clever swimmers. Although the season has hardly begun at the time this goes to press, prospects are far from discouraging. in addition to the conference meet on May third, dual meets have been arranged with Franklin Hi, U. C. L. A. and Caltek; Oxy will also be represented in the A. A. U. meet. The men supporting varsity swimming are Jacobson, Parmenter, and Ebers of last year ' s squad, while Raymond, Lewis and Subke are out for the first time. All of these man are doing conscientious, hard work, having shown constant improvement, and are ready to give any conference team some close competition. The organization of a frosh team, which has bean accomplished this season, is an innovation in this activity, which will insure the varsity for the future. Those fighting for a place on the team are Strayer, Blackstone, Tifal, Templeton, Wilshira and Hall. A majority of these represent men of supe- rior swimming ability and considerable experience. u 51 JFoiiicii ' s .Jf ilcfirs ATHLETIC BOARD Under the leadership of Miss Flodgdon. head of Woman ' s Physical Education, Mrs. Thrall, Girls ' Coach, and the Athletic Board, women ' s activities took large strides forward.

The Club meets monthly where a paper is read by some member of the organization on a question pertaining to economics, which is supposed to be of general interest. After the reading of the paper, the entire club indulges in criticism and discussion. This is by far he most valuable part of the evening as many new questions, ideas and theories are unearthed.

Besides developing a more extensive knowledge of the best literature, music and art, the friendships, pleasure and recreation derived from common study at these bi-monthly meetings are most worth- while as well as enjoyable. One of the most interesting features in the Dial Literary Society program is the annual debate with Laurean on some topic of interest to both. One If II ri J I, -J T hirty-llirec u )ul s In!

These two organizations officially became extinct as the members of both societies met in a banquet of union, May I 5th at the Windsor Tea Room. Those present at this banquet were considered Charter members of the new society. The union was the result of a desire to increase the interest in activity in this field, alleviate the ever increasing organization problem at Occidental and found a club that would be composed of members who were listed in the roll call because they measured up to strict membership qualifications. The aim of the new organization is for the mutual improvement of its members, individually, collectively, and coUsgiately. ()7ic Hundred Thirly-lnur The Student Volunteer Band is a group of those students who are mem- bers of the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions. That is, they have signified their purpose to become foreign missionaries. The local band holds weekly meeting in order to hear more of the missionary enterprises, and to prepare themselves for their future work. 11 B One IltniJred T iirly-fiir ||j| OH H IsM lBBMoSBlaES L.

Its membership is limited to those students majoring in Science or Engineering. Meetings are held monthly, usually preceded by a banquet or dinner, and followed by a lecture given by some prominent scientist or engineer. Throughout this year the members have visited several places of interest. Some of these places were the Mt. Wilson Observatory, the Edison Co. high power transformer station, the California Institute of Technology million-volt transformer, and the Mt. Wilson laboratories in Pasadena. These oppor- tunities so near to our door have been of great interest to the members of Pi Epsilon. The Engineers having constructed the O on college hill, now feel it their duty to see that a new letter is erected. Plans are now drawn for the new O which, when finished, will be a monument compared to the old letter. Plans are also being made by the Engineers for a road to the O. and it is hoped that it can be started next fall. Occidental is growing fast, and the Engineers of Pi Epsilon want to have some part in the making of that greater Occidental, since that is our primary purpose of organization. HARVtY E. WHITE. Onr llnii.lr,;! Thirty-seven s ola o BlQ SPIs Student Felloicship The Student Fellowship was organized in Occidental College during the fall of 1921 under the name, Home Service Recruits. The former name vas adopted when the movement became national. its purpose is to enlist those who are planning to take up Christian work in the home field. The weekly meetings are characterized by the fellowship of such minded people, listening to educational and inspiring talks from those visiting us from their respective fields of service. The members of this group also study the actual and varied problems of the home-land. The Liberal Club M Executive Councils MEN Burdette Daniels Chairman Verner Jacobson Maynard Munger Jerome Lindquist David Todd Wallace Clark WOMEN Lillian Zeilhoefer Chairman Helen Hodges Isabella Corbett Marian Walton H. Sherwood Dorothy Garstang The newest club to be organized in Occidental comes as a result of a general movement which is taking place in all our leading American colleges — the tendency toward liberalism fostered by the belief that all questions of vital import must be faced and studied from all sides, not accepting only the single-side study often presented to the student. This organization is affiliated with the League for Industrial Democracy, itself a loose federation of similar clubs, units of which are a part of the greater colleges of America. Here in Occidental a need for such an organization is pressing. It stands for freedom of thought, and all it demands of its members is an open mind and a well-grounded desire to see truly, and not merely as dictated by other minds. Both sides of all questions under discussion are presented: both the Capitalist and the so-called Bolshevik present their beliefs, and it is up to the hearer to decide as he then sees fit. As to organization itself, a notable innovation has been introduced, and one to receive due approbation in our somewhat controlled election sys- tem — there are no officers in the club and its membership is open to anyone interested in discussion of currant questions. With these things to recom- mend it it is hoped that the number of these noble band of wonderers may steadily increase, and become a power on the campus, and an integral part ot the college life, and a true help, as it has demonstrated itself to be through similar organizations in the various other colleges of America.

It has grown into an honorary society composed of those who have won their letters in athletic contests. The club functions mainly as a group of enthusiasts for all athletics. The athletic council of A. W. S. has taken the work formerly done by the O club. This year the club sent a representative to the national conference of the Athletic Council of American College Women at Berkeley and held rallies for the various sports.

It is the distinct responsibility of the Ju- nior Class, and endeavors to set forth a written and pictorial account of the year that has passed. It requires more than one person to successfully edit such a book. Many have contributed to that degree of success which has been attained in the present volume The Editor w ishes hers to thank the business manager, Mr. Wadsworth, for his close co-operation and helpful suggestions. The staff has worked faithfully. Others not on the staff have done fine work, for which we ars deeply grateful. The members of Dauber ' s Art Club, notably Ken- neth Wilson, Esther Rideout, Hazel Garrison, Jock Stevens, Bill Keech and Maynard Munger, have contributed a great measure of the art work.

Robert Kleinpell, Glenn Lemke, Laurence Raymond, Robert Lindley Feature Writers Sport Writers The official publication of the Associated Students, • ' The Occidental, has distinguished itsalf this year in consistently publishing an eight page edi- tion, the largest for its size in the college history. Absolute dependability was maintained because of its regular distribution every Tuesday morning of college session. The aim has been twofold regarding news: to record past happenings and to inform concerning present and future events. This policy is in accord with the desire to publish college news for present enlightenment as well as furnishing historical record for the college. Impartiality to all organizations in the endeavor for a Greater Occi- dental ; weekly alumni news to unite mora intimately alumni and the active chapter; close contact with the college officials for the sake of the press har- mony; news concerning other institutions to further friendly brotherhood; the assistance of Dr. Stelter in establishing a Class in Journalism; a scientific division of staff duties urging individual responsibility; special feature writers on college life; special feature articles on activities outside college life to help in creating a responsible attitude to the duties of citizenship; a special sport section distinguishing itself from other collegiate papers of its size; a regular comic section establishing a new pathway in college newspaperdom, have all resulted in a well rounded out paper.

HAYNES Editor -------- Irving Haynes Assistant Editor ------- Alice Gates The Tiger Handbook is a publication edited jointly by the Young Mens and Young Women s Christian Associations each year for the purpose of per- forming a worthwhile service to Occidental by passing on to the Freshmen an outline in compact form of the traditions, ideals and activities of college life. It contains much data without which the entering student would be at a com- plete loss, and which serves to call to mind of old students familiar landmarks of the road through Occidental. Each organization is explained in such a way that the frosh may learn of the student activities and the purpose of each organization. The best known songs and yells are also printed in the handbook so that the entering student may have no excuse for not learning thoroughly our peppy rah rah songs and yells. Also our frosh bible contains a diary which gives place to all the important dates during the school year — which, of course, emphasizes its nature doubly. All in all the handbook is a publication which proves of service to a and is thus one of the most important publications of any school year. IliiiiJn-il I-:iiility-liiio M EdeOMClS S E m t?

STEVENSON Men ' s Debating The second season of the new Forensic Conference, which includes the seven institutions of higher learning in Southern California, was a notable year in Occidental ' s long and honorable forensic history; notable not only for the vi ctories won, but still more so because it marks the opening of a new era in forensic activity. The coming of Professor Charles F. Lindsley to es- tablish a department of Speech Education and to coach our debaters and orators means that this college activity is given full recognition and a more important place in college life. Professor Lindsley in his student days at the University of Ohio had a considerable and successful experience, both in debating and oratory. For the past six years he has coached debating at the University of Minnesota and turned out a series of teams seldom van- quished. His influence was apparent this year in better debating and when he has had an opportunity to develop a squad from the excellent new ma- terial in Occidental we expect to see forensic teams which are world beaters. A great deal of credit for the success of this year belongs also to Mr. Edward Jones, the efficient and diligent Forensic Manager. Not only did he manage, but also he did the lion ' s share of the actual work, taking part in three debates, and winning two of them. The first event of the year was the Annual Extempore Contest. It was held November 22, at U. S. C, and all seven schools participated. Mr. Francis Henshaw was the Tiger representative, and came home with second place for the college and a silver medal for himself. Mr. Henshaw, a Fresh- man, is also a promising debater and did fine work this year, participating in four debates. ri One nundird F.i jhty-jour ' fc-- Men ' s Debating The first round of Conference debates took place on the night of Feb- ruary 7. The subject for the season was: Resolved, that Congress should have the power to nullify decisions o f the Supreme Court by re-enacting laws declared unconstitutional. Our Negative team, composed of Mr. Henshaw and Mr. Jones, defeated our old rivals, U. S. C. on their own platform. The debate with Whittier was postponed one week on account of a smallpox epi- demic in the Quaker City. On February 1 4, however, the Affirmative, com- posed of Verne Mantle and Robert Stevenson, defeated Whittier on the home platform. Thus, the first round ended with a double victory for the Tigers. In the second round the same teams met with exactly the opposite re- sults, for the Negative was defeated by Redlands, at Redlands, and the Affirmative by the Grizzlies at home on the night of February 2 1 . Occidental broke even in the last round on March 6 when the same Negative team defeated Caltek, but the Affirmative team, composed this time of Mr. Lembke and Mr. Stevenson, met defeat at the hands of Pomona at the Sagehen institution. Thus the Conference season ended with 50 per cent wins for Occidental, which included the satisfaction of having beaten U. S. C. In the final debate of the year, Mr. Henshaw and Mr. Lembke upheld the Affirmative of the same question against the University of Arizona in the college chapel April I 1 , winning 2 to 1 in a well-fought contest. F. HENSHAW V. MANTLE |nED s[H !i[ G. LEMBKE One llunJrrJ Eighty- five B Oratory Three oratorical contests occurred this year in which representatives of Occidental took part. Unfortunately only two of them had been held when the forms of La Encina were closed. The first oratorical event of the year was the National Peace Contest, which was held at Pomona on March 14. The first prize was 50 dollars in gold and the second 25. The first place was aw arded to Pomona, while the second prize went to U. C. L. A. Occidental ' s representative was Mildrad Zellhoefer, whose subject was: A Challenge to American College Students. The Annual Oratorical Contest of the Men ' s Conference took place on April 24 at Caltek. Paul Carter represented Occidental and altho he failed to place, he deserves a great amount of credit. His theme was The Anarchy of War. First place was won by the Southern Branch and second by Pomona College. The time for the Women ' s Annual Oratorical Contest has not been defin- itely set at the time of writing, but it will take place sometime in the early part of May. Helen Sherwood has been chosen, and will do her best to keep the trophy cup at Occidental. Last year, which was the first the League was in operation, Oxy brought home the cup. If it can be won this year and next, it will become our permanent property. ll ' ()))icn ' s Dcbdtnis ' ■ 1 1 The forensic activities of the women are carried on under the auspices m of the Women ' s Forensic League of Southern California. This League was — organized in 1922 and consists of five schools: Redlands, U. C. L. A., Po- - mona, La Verne, and Occidental. The question chosen for this year ' s series was very timely as it was being discussed in the press and in political circles all over the country. It was: Resolved, that the United States Government should at once grant complete independence to the Philippine Islands. The Affirmative team in both debates was composed of Grace Smith, Faith McCracken, and Lillian Zellhoefer. This team met Pomona on our home platform January 10, and journeyed to La Verne January 22. The Negative team met U. C. L. A. on the 10th and Redlands on the 22nd. This team, none of whom we lose by graduation, consisted of Esther Pritchard, Ji 1 E. PRITCHARD A. McDonald Oiii- flinutnJ F. ' tiilily-seven cE D oH Nena Lind, and Anita McDonald. Although the results of the season meas- ured by the decisions, were not all we might have desired, the Redlands con- test being the only victory for Occidental, too much can not be said in praise of the hard and consistent work of these girls. The majority of them virere altogether inexperienced at the beginning of the season and the progress they made under Coach Lindsleys guidance augurs well for a championship next year. No account of the women ' s forensic activities could be complete w ithout a mention of Mildred Zellhoefer, the able and efficient manager. To her be- longs not a little of the credit for bringing to light the new material which was developed this year. Miss Zellhoefer will be back next year ready to do her part toward a championship.

The play, Plots and Playwrights, ' was a modern drama of unusual plot, written in the Har- vard workshop, and so was well fitted for college production. It was a spa rkling satire on those melodramatic impossibilities, the so-called New York successes, and called for each member of the cast to do a double role. Under the direction of Arthur Lubin the cast did some brilliant work. CAST Casper Gay ------- Howard Harper Mr. Hastings .......

It was presented on the college campus on the night of June I 2. Gilmore Brown, managar of the Community Players of Pasadena and the same director who made last year ' s Senior play, the Medea, a success, was again in charge. The significance of his directorship can only be realized to the full extent by those who witnessed the magnificent performance. The services of Mrs. Harriette Demet Packard were also secured to train the choruses, and Miss Dorothy Gilbert was again in charge of the dances. The beautiful translation of the Bacchanals was by Professor Ward, head of the Greek Department of the College, and the progress of the story was made especially clear because the dialogue was in dramatic prose. a Agane Pentheus Dionysius Tiresias Cadmus - 1 st Messenger 2nd Messenger Coryphaeus Vlargaret Crawford Jack Cosgrove Claire Morrow Ernest Giffen Herbert Hamilton Carl Lindquist - Merritt Moora Lillian Zillhoeffer E Oni- lliindrrii Mnely-nnr iS Dramatics ARDEN FOLLIES During Student Hour on February 15, 1924, two plays wera produced under the direction of Arden Society, for final tryouts. The plays showed ability in the players and, in fact, were so well done that they were a surprise to the audience. The applause was resounding.

Great variety was offered in the stunts, from a modern problem play, presented by the Seniors, to a romance of the seventeenth century, elaborately costumed, the Junior stunt. The Sophomores did a song and dance act while our able Freshmen produced a fetching photograph album. Gay booths, much food, and noise-producing toys made the evening a carni- val. We commend the Sophomore class on their successful evening.

This provided a unique dramatic evening, after the manner of the group of French players appearing at the present time in New York. By offering a group of varied plays Arden appeared in four moods — delightful comedy, tragedy, a miniature drama, and melodrama, and thereby the Occidental audience saw all of Arden in action. The plays were produced in Franklin High School Auditorium March 21, 1924, in the after- noon and evening, under the able direction of Arthur Lubin.

The upper classmen play an important part in the event by supplying enough water by means of hose and tubs, to keep the combatants cool. When the whistle blows the winner is the class having the least number of men tied. if a class wins the rope rush both years, it has the privilege of erecting the class numerals on College Hill. So far only two classes have gained that distinction, the classes of ' 1 1 and ' I 3. Joint Reception The Joint Reception at Occidental is the first affair of the year. It is sponsored by the Y. M. C. A., with the faculty and old students as hosts and hostesses. The Freshmen are the guests, and they are all insured dates by the well-known process of slating. Great is the excitement which prevails among the upper classmen who ara privileged to watch the sly young frosh make his date with the blushing co-ed in the ons minute which is allotted him for the purpose. The Joint Reception plays an important part in college life because it is the means by which faculty, and old and new students are given an opportunity to become acquainted. After this time we all feel we know better every member of our great Occidental Family. TiLo Hundred Six U 1 jU jnj . hiy Day Festivities May seventh was the day S3t aside this year by the Occidental women, as the high school girls ' day. A special program was arranged and an effort made to give the high school girls a view of college in all its phases. It is customary to elect a girl from the Senior class as May Qusen and this year Beth Dean w as chosen. Other features of the day were the May pole with the girls in peasant costumes, various folk dances and solo dances and the procession of the May Queen and her company to the throne on the green in front of President and Mrs. Bird ' s home. Another custom which takes place at this time is tha choos- ing of a girl who is considered to have done the most for Occidental during her four years at college. This year Lorine Czerniski was selected. Following this Doris Fowler, retiring President of the Associated Women Students, spoke and then installed the new officers for the coming year, which are: President, Helen Ingledue; Vice-President, Louise Huston; Secretary, Jean Davidson; Treasurer, Marianna Osborne; Athletic Represen- tative, Grace Giflen; Oratorical Representative, Elsie Thompson. The Rally Bonfire The rally bonfire is a b ig feature in Occidental life. It comes as a preliminary to every important athletic con- test, and especially the Po- mona football game. Great piles of dry goods boxes and railroad ties, super-saturated with oil, the special provi- sion of the Freshman class, are ignited, and as the great pyre reaches heavenward, loyal sons of Occidental work up enthusiasm that makes for victory. Speeches are made by old grads and reminiscences of the glorious games of the old days are conjured up and reviewed. Yells and songs keep pace with the mounting jets of flame and the music of crackling wood. It is an event of much color and sig- nificance. u uiii bj Tnjditions Senior Diti i Day Soph Stunts Amid the eerie spookiness of Halloween, with wild-eyed Jack-o-Lanterns, witches and shocks of corn, the soph stunts afforded much jollity for all Oxy students. , . Each class presented a one-act skit as its part of the stunts, the seniors winning the distinction of having the best, for which their class numerals were put on the banner to be used annually for this purpose. i j • A miniature Halloween carnival was held on ths upper quad durmg the intermission between the plays. Each class and the Faculty had its own booth and sold anything from pumpkin pie to ticklers. After the last stunt everyone departed, except the spooks and a few freshmen flunkies, declaring that the Sophs had certainly done themselves proud in putting on the best stunts yet. Junior Cords To be a Junior means happy days for the men. It means no worry about what to wear to keep up with Dame Fashion, for from now on cords are the style. If they become dark in color after the first few weeks don ' t be sur- prised, for this is not caused by dirt alone but by an artistic instinct to decorate the erstwhile plain cords with the names of loved ones. If some day you open your eyes in surprise at the light color of someone ' s cords, don t be shocked, but just realize that they are new ones and ready for the work of pen and ink. TiLo UunJtfd Mne u 1 u lUl SoinMtSSinEc BlsMOPH Traditions Founders ' Day Founders ' Day .one of Occidental ' s big events, was celebrated April 2 3rd this year. In the morning the entire Student Body met in Alumni Hall with the founders of the College. Occidental was fortunate in having Dr. Young, the founder of the college with them. At this time the candle service was ob- served by those who have helped make Occidental and are still helping to make the greater Occidental. Dr. Young lit the candle for the trustees, Mrs. Norton for the friends of the College and Dr. Wadsworth for the president. Candles were also lit for the faculty, alumni and students. In the afternoon the Founders Day address was delivered by Dr. Munro of Harvard. The Alumni by pledging renewed faith and loyalty to the man who founded Occidental College presented Dr. Young to President Bird who conferred upon him the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws. The friends and members ol the college then adjourned to the Mary Norton Clapp library which was formally presented to the school and a reception was held. The hundred thousand dollar library was an anonymous gift in memory of Mrs. Mary Nor- ton Clapp. In the evening the Founders Day Banquet v as held in the commons. Junior Breakfast During commncement week the Juniors meet together as a class and have breakfast on College Hill. As this is the last time all the Juniors are together before vacation it helps to hold them together over the summer and to come back prepared to be a strong Senior class. IS A .S,im ' l,- „l hnisli I ' l Tiio Hundred Eleven The J nmur-Scmor Banquet On the evening of May twenty-third the Seniors were ask8d to be the guests of the Juniors at a banquet at the Vista del Arroyo hotel in Pasadena. The Juniors as hosts for the evening, did their best to give the Seniors the best time they ever had. The Senior Women were entertained by the Junior men and tha Junior vi omen by the Senior men. Sop iOHiorc Proclamation For every Frosh class there is a Ku Klux Proclamation, which serves as the code of laws for the incoming Freshmen. The proclamation is written by the Sophomore class and the laws in it are enforced by the Tribunal. Frosh caps, queening, respect for upper class men, the Senior Bench and the duties and obligations of the Frosh are all fully explained, with the appropriate words of warning for those who break the laws. Frosh Caps As soon as the Ku Klux Proclamations appear the Frosh may be distin- guished about the campus by their black caps. They never are made to fit, it seems, so many are the ridiculous people we see walking about the campus. Woe to the Frosh who appears without the sign of his inferiority upon his head! If caught without a cap he will soon learn the fateful workings of the Mens Tribunal. f Tn.i.n lliniclnui luiiiilrrn 4ir2DEEcEEogMolH BSloIH « pQH B - N gsja oOglB Visitor: What do they do here at Chapel?

LOS ANGELES Tiu, lltirulirJ Forly-niiir s t 3 s u u H 6 OsEoElDl So lolH ffBlolH fl loH ■■■b Art, Beauty and Culture By James W. Foley In caves that are thousands of years old, and where primitive man found shelter, there are drawings of the animals with which he was fa- miliar. They are well done and indicate the struggle of the spirit of man for artistic expression. In the tombs of Egyptian kings have been dis- covered works of art of exquisite beauty and grace- Thousands of years ago that same artistic spirit found expression in painting, in pottery, in laces and embroideries. For men found that while life can be sustained with food and drink, civilization cannot abide without art and beauty. Ruskin says that labor without art is bi ' utality. Art in labor brings beauty and the human soul grows great with the expressions of art. Culture is merely the beautifying of eveiy day life and work with the expression of art. And it is culture that enables us to do well and with grace and beauty the work of the world. Hence it is that no life is full and complete without the ex- pression of art in beauty. The influence of beauty is perhaps the greatest in the world, for it enriches the souls of men and women and leads them on to higher things in work, in social grace, in civilization. Sentiment is the great underlying force in social life. The home is huilded on it, the school is builded on it, the nation is builded on it. Without sentiment in its various forms and expressions, we should have a dull, stolid and brutal social organization. Whatever contributes to the better understanding of art, beauty and sentiment, makes for culture, and for the higher development of social life. It makes for better work. It makes for better friendship. It makes for better understanding. It makes for better civilization. It makes for better life in all its forms and expressions. The enrichment of the human soul with beauty is the object of all cultural expression. Many years ago the word Better was adopted as Little ' s slogan. It is assumed that those who have been long interested in Occidental ' s progress have also been cognizant of A. E. Little Company ' s progress at the same time. The first La Encina was produced for you by the A. E. Little Company. Since that time their full page advertisement has al- ways appeared with some message intended to be mutually help- ful to Occidentalites and themselves. This year we give you a Better Message written by our own James W. Foley, editor of Little ' s Better Greeting Cards. The demand for Little ' s Better Greeting Cards has been growing over the United States to the extent that it now takes over one hun- dred people the year round to produce them. We were fortunate in securing the services of Mr. Foley as editor, and now expect the demand to be still greater. Little ' s Better Greeting Cards may be obtained in the better stores most anywhere, but naturally our own retail store shows the greatest variety. In addition to greeting cards Little ' s bears an enviable reputation for producing Better Engraved Stationery , Better Printing and Better Picture Framing . For your con- sideration and use are also displayed for sale, Better Pictures Better Social Stationery Better Pens and Pencils and Better Useful Gifts.
