California DCDICATICN To those mothers fathers as a just valuation of their unerasing efforts, self saeri-fflce and self denial which have made our high sehool edueation possible, this 19:11 Alpha is dedicated Fcrewcrd Adventure! Wliat heart tioivs not vibrate to the magie lure ol' that word? To earli it lias its meaning and for each ii paints a pieture. Allventure exists not in one phase of life, but in many. It is vihraut in the glamor of far oft days and places, in the thrill of danger and in the exultation of great deeds. Because of the universal appeal, the theme chosen for this, the Alpha of 1931, is pirates seeking adventure. We have attempted to express this theme in the art and literature on the following pages. Come with us, then, in the quest of adventure whither-so-ever that quest may lead... In Memevirtm Cecil Alvarez, Jr. Alar!in l.uAlier. Soph. Charlie Janes. Frosli.

Heart's desires are real, And we should not deem them Fancies of cloud, tossed up for awhile Like harmless nothings, dispelled by a smile. Dreams do come true, Though we do not believe it. You should think of each dream-You can never retrieve it. Who knows when the dream may suddenly be real? Who knows how you may like the concrete ideal ? Dreams do come true, So beware what you dream for Heart’s desires arc real. Take care what you scheme for. Remember, the clouds are not always just mist And that the impossible does not exist Even in dreams, for dreams do come true.

I he old system of entrance required an average of A in three subjects, and B in the fourth subject. I his year, however, the point system has been introduced, enabling a student to enter the Honor Society, providing he has the sum of ten points. In April, the annual conference of the Northern Region of Calif. Scholarship Federation was held in Durham. Miss Karma Coon, president of Durham High School's society, presided over the meeting. Miss Dorothy Fifcr acted as adviser for the Honor Society during this last term. The officers First Semester Lucia Wirth Ernest Develter Evelyn Crum Charlotte Rigling for the two semesters were: Second Semester President Robert Bethel Vice president Paul Burch Secretary Jane Boynton Treasurer Ellen Gould mg«MTOfljingai Le Club Francais Le Club Francais was organized at the instigation of Madamoiselle Dorothy Fifer, at the beginning of the fall semester of 1930. Anyone studying French is eligible to membership. Madamiselle Mary Silver and Madamoiselle Katherine Kirby, our able presidents, have led us successfully through the two semesters. French, as a subject, has not been available to students for the past nine years, and its popularity proves its addition t0 our curriculum well warranted. One of our social activities, Une Fete Francaise, was held in November, 1930. Members came dressed in French costumes and conversed in French language. They were served an eight course French dinner prepared by Mrs. B. C. Epperson, and served by ' Gaston, Miss Lucille Kirby. Place cards and menus were designed by Katherine Kirby. A committee composed of Madeleine Leonard, Virginia Epperson, Merlin Hill, Royal Young and Raymond Flood planned the program on entertainment, for the dinner and the informal dancing afterward. Officers for the first semester w. rc: Mary Silver, president; Eldred Bates. Vice-president, Chester Mower, secretary-treasurer. Those who held office for the second semester were: Katherine Kirby, President, Merlin Hill, Vice-president, Royal Young, secretary-treasurer. The Latin Club The Latin Club was established Sept. 24, 1930, for the purpose of fostering good fellowship among the freshmen and sophomore Latin classes and broadening the outlook of the students tow’ird the language-and customs of the ancient Romans. Although meetings are not held at stated times, a number have been called during the year. These have been well attended and much interest displayed. T he Roman banquet given by the Club on Februaary 6, 1931, under the chairmanship of Laila Fulkerson, was a noteworthy success. Tables were set in the form of a ‘U”, strewn with olive branches and fruit and lighted with tapers. Couches were provided for reclining, and food was served in Roman style. The diners and their attendant slaves wtre dressed in costume, togas and vari-colored The Brush and Easel Club T he Brush and Easel Club was organized in Sept. 1930, under the leadership of Bertha Boring. Miss Fry and Miss Haack acted as club advisers. The purpose of this clhb is to create an appreciation of art in all its phases. One of the most successful school dances held during the term, was the Mardi Gras, given by the club on February 20. The auditorium was decorated in serpentine, crepe paper, and a center motif composed of four large masked panels. The students came dressed in fancy costumes ranging from an angel to the well known attire of the unemployed. Flelen Mooney presided as queen during the festivities. She was welcomed with ceremony by Mr. Nisbet. Of the proceeds derived from Mardi Gras, $22.50 was presented to the student body. Another event enjoyed by the club members and their guests, was a picnic supper at Bidwell Bar, held on April 29. It is to be hoped that the Brush and Easel Club will continue to be successful in the future as it has been since it was first organized. The officers for the first and second semesters were’ President --------- --------- -------------------Bertha Boring Vice President-----------------------------------Frances Parker Sec..

Leonard Bell held the office of secretary-treasurer, and Miss Alice Mork acted as the club adviser. I hi members of the club are seeking to become better acquainted with the Spanish language and with the customs of the Spanish speaking people. A skull of a bull has been adopted as the official emblem: a meeting is not begun until the skull is officially brought forth. The club is a member of the World League of International Education Associations, through which foreign correspondence is being carried on. The main event of the year was a Spanish Fiesta, which was carried cut in true Spanish style. The members dressed in gay Spanish costumes, and, 2t supper time, tamales and other native dishes were en joyed in the cafeteria. Dancing and a program, which carried one back to old Spain, concluded the fiesta. wmmmwmmmiMm Quality Street Time---Napoleonic Period Place---Blue White Room in the house of the Misses Phoebe and Susan Throssel in Quality Street.

Everything was great.’’ “Helen Mooney made a most ideal Queen at the Ball, too.” Jane grew enthusiastic, “And that Bob Morgan--Mike Lewis act! Leave it to them to do something like that. Bob Morgan's flying leap into Mike’s arms to escape the perils of the wild animals of the jungle was a scream.” “That was all well and good, but I didn’t take part in that. I like the things I took part in and I sure took part in the dancing. I never danced better in my life--everything uias in favor of the dancer. Those changeable colored spot lights that played down on the colorful array of quaint costumes and the conventional decor ations gave an aspect of unreality to the whole affair.” Jack said. “The music, toe, was good. Our High School Dance Orchestra these six sizzling synccpater; who call themselves the ‘Hottentotts,’ are getting better all the time..’ “I liked th? Girl’s Quartette, t00,” Jane said. “Getting back to nature was personified n Bob V are with his talk on health, the wav you can’t have if “FvervfHng was wonderful,” Jane laughed, “and I hope the practice of givin” dances T onscrcd by the Brush andEasel will be perpetuated for the benefit of humanity.” Fiesta Espanola “Hey, Jimmy, were you absent from school yesterday?” “Yes, why?” “Well, you missed it. that’s all.” “Missed what?” “Why. the Spanish Fiesta, of course!” Tom said quickly. At once Jimmy was all ears. “What happened?” he asked interestedly. “Oh. all the Spanish students came dressed as Caballeros, senors, senoritas, peons, and dons. And Miss Mork looked just like a Cast-illien.” Did they have any eats?” Jimmy asked, remembering his favorite pastime. “D d they! I wasn't there, but I heard they had the hottest torti-lhs y‘ u ever tasted. And. Jimmy, that wasn’t all, either. After they ate, they had a dance in the auditorium, and the Jazz Orchestra furnished the music, too.” Le Jour Francois ‘Look, Bill, shouted Cy, as someone entered their classroom, “what do you make of that?” “What the-----! Who is it?’’ “That’s Ross. He must be insane. ‘Oh! I remember now. This is the day of the big French party.” Scenes like this occurred frequently all over the schoolgrounds. A Frenchman here. A Frenchman there. French students in costumes were the talk of the day. They were allowed to speak French only or beware the consequences. “Bonjour, monsieur. “Bonjour. mademoiselle. That evening a big French dinner was served in the high school cafeteria. All French students became familiar with “Carte du Jour which was served in excellent style by a French waiter. During the repast, dire punishment was inflicted upon those who had broken certain rules during the day. Some had to make speeches in French, sing French songs, and perform French dances. The honored guests of the evening were Monsieur and Madame Nisbet. After the dinner a dance was enjoyed in the auditorium, which was brilliantly decorated in red. wihite, and blue. Freshman Reception As Harding and Pete walked slowly up the steps of the brilliantly lighted school, the strains of‘Tm Confessing That I Love You’ played by Ray Horn’s orchestra, fel delightfully upon their ears. I don t know how to dance very well. said Harding, and I know the girls won t dance with me. 1 hink I 11 go home. Keen music, though.” “Aw. come on, urged Pete. “You don’t know what you’re missing. “Well, all right. They were then in the auditorium and were astonished by the autumn-like decorations that met their eyes. Real pumpkins on the stage, too. And a “Welcome Frosh sign made Harding feel better. Two hours later: ‘Well, did you have a good time?” ‘Good time! Boy, I'm not ever going to miss another dance. Gee. I even danced more than my Bud did. Hooray! Wait till I get him home!” And they weren't the only ones who felt that way about our dance. Fmm Athletics A FOOTBALL Coach Onyett Coach Qualls Dick Salzman certainly shows his ability of eluding his opponents when he packs the ball around end. Recovering from injuries received the first of the season he came back in great style in the latter games of the season. Fred Huntington displayed some pretty work and played in almost every game of the year, despite this being his first year cn the team. Melvin Moseley did some fine playing this yea:. He will be back on the line next year, as our new' running guard, the best Oroville has ever seen, we hope Ivor Gregory is a fast end, always able to get under passes. We expect him to make a good showing next year. Torao Kimura, although small, can surely play football. He has played in some of the most exciting games of the season, giving the crowd many thrills. 1 ub Washburn is a really peppy manager. It is hoped that we have as hard w'orking „nd conscientious one in the near future. Elton Develter came through with a bang this year. He is great on defense and can certainly run interference. Who knows what he may do next year? Clyde Masteller certainly comes to the front and packs the ball over the line at the right time. He turned a defeat into a tie in the Oroville-Chico game. Herb Silver, right end. is one hard hitting hurricane and is out on the line at every game. Bob Morgan was outstanding when it came to getting under passes. He always managed to worm through the line and catch the ball. Bob Sorenson, left tackle, tilts the scales at about 225 pounds. He looks like a young mountain to the opposing team and certainly knows how to put his weight where it is most needed. Dick Rasmussen made one of the most spectacular plays of the year, when he intercepted a pass in the Oroville-Chico game, and made a long dash down the field for a touchdown in the first quarter. Ernie Develter captained his team with great skill. He was an expert on offensive and defensive and defensive tactics. We hope Oroville will soon have more men like him. Oliver Ledford is no slouch when it comes to playing center. He has also done some nice work in backing up the line. Francis Scholes is one of the best guards Orovilii has ever had. We all wish he could stay with us mother season. Fred Zundel was one of Oroville's best players, always performing spectacularly when in action. Art Parker surely put fear into our opponents vjhcn he came plowing over center in the line bucks. Art will be with us again next year. Mike Lewis is a bad dream to all punters. Once he grabs a punt and gets started, it takes more than one man to down him. —f Oroville vs. Chico The game between the old rivals. Chico and Oroville. was one of the most exciting of the year. Oroville intercepted a pass and with perfect interference made the first touchdown of the day. In the second quarter the Panthers made two smashing touchdowns as a result of a series of line bucks. The Tigers returned the onslaught with a series of passes and a charge over the center which tied the score. This game furnished many thrills for the crowd in the bleachers. Oroville 1 2 Chico 1 2 Oroville vs. Woodland The Tigers met the Woodland Wolves in the first league game of the year. Although they performed spectacularly in every phase of the game they were unable to cross the goal line. Woodland obtained the deciding score after a series of smashing plays and, a forward pass which was received as the paayer charged over the goal line. T he excellent performance of the Tigers showed the students that Oroville had cnc of the strongest teams she has had for years. Oroville 0 Woodland 7 Oroville vs. Roseville This being the third league game of the year, there wfcs great excitement among the Orovillians, partly because it was the Tigers first game cn a wet field, and also because the result of the game meant a great deal. The Tigers had the Railroaders backed up within one foot of their goal and if the gun had not gone off, the ball would probably have fallen into Oroville's hands. The game was played a tie. Oroville 0 Rosville 0 Colusa vs Oroville The Oroville Tigers played their first practice game of the sea son with Colusa High School. The Tigers outplayed their oppon ents in every department of the game. Dick Salzman. quarterback, crashed through the line for consecutive gains of ten or fifteen yards while his teammate, Mike L.ewis, likewise circled end for long gains. Oroville on a sustained drive of seventy yards made the first touch down and converted. At that stage it appeared as though the Tigers had the game in the bag. However the grief came when Richard Rasmussen attempted a forward pass. This was intercepted by Cart Jim Hall of Colusa who ran for fifty yards to a touchdown and converted to tie the score. Colusa 6 Oroville 6 Practice Games Christian Bros. vs. Oroville With practically a new back field composed of Zundel, Morgan, Rasmussen and diminutive Kimura. the fighting JJgers out played their heavier opponents but failed to cross their goal line, causing the second tie of the season. Both teams threatened to score at different times but were so evenly matched that they managed to hold each other in check at those crucial times. Morgan. Rasmussen and Zundel proved to be Oroville's strongest offensive threats, gaining much yardage while Scholes and young Develter starred in the line. Christian Brothers 0 Oroville 0 Oroville vs. Willows Oroville took its first beating when it let a much lighter team pass over head on consecutive occasions for long gains which ultimately resulted in touchdowns. Masteller. newly made fullback, scored both of Oroville's tallies. Oroville 19 Willows 33 Post League Games Gridley vs Oroville Armastice Day the Oroville Tigers defeated the Gridley Pelicans by an overwhelming score. Lewis and Masteller could not be stopped. Lewis on a weak side reverse ran twenty yards for a touchdown. Masteller slapped center for ten yards and followed with ten more for a touchdown. Scholes, Oroville guard on a freak play made his first touchdown after a run of about sixty yards. Gridley 0 Oroville 33 Chico vs Oroville For the second lime Oroville met their ancient rivals. Both teams were so stubborn on defense that the game was not as interesting as the previous cne. Sal .man, after being on the injured list all season came back full strength and proved to be Oroville's only offens v: threat. He mad - several long runs that brought the Oroville fans 11 their feet. Neither team scored. Chico 0 Oroville 0 A TIC AM Donald Turner Elmer Hayes William Fry Robert Morgan Raymond Flood Marshall Chapman Charles Kennady Dick Salzman Oliver Ledford The Varsity Team Marysville at Oroville Oroville 10 Marysville 34 In the first game of the year, the Oroville Tigers put up a gallant fight against Marysville. If Marysville had not had a star player the score might have been reversed even though she always had a strong team. Zundel and Flood were the high point men for Oroville. The players were Zundel and Flood, forwards: Ledford and Kennady, guards: Hayes, center: while Morgan, Luther, and Salzman subbed. Oroville at Yuba City Yuba City had a large team that had had six weeks more practice than our Tigers. Try as Oroville might, she couldn t keep her opponent's score down and lost 41 to 18. The players were Zundel. Flood. Hayes, Ledford, and dnnady. Woodland vs Oroville The Oroville team suffered another defeat, when they met Woodland on the home court. The house was packed and the Tigers put up a good fight, but luck was against them. Zundel and Ledford were high point men. The score was Woodland 5 2. Oroville 20. Oroville vs Biggs This was one of the oddest games of the season, as there were 34 fouls against the players on both sides. 1 his resulted in the putting out of Oroville’s best men. T he best playing of the game was in the second quarter. Biggs had the advantage as they were on their home court. The resulting score was Oroville 5 Biggs 34. Oroville vs Grid ley This game with Gridley was one of the most exciting of the year. Hayes. Zundel and Flood were put out as they had four fouls apiece, and were substituted by Fry, Chapman, and Morgan. Turner late-entered the game in another's place. Altogether Kennady was the only regular in the game, it was a good smooth working combination. This was Zundel's ’ast game and he was high point man in spite of his short stay in the game. Oroville at Marysville The Tigers played a fast game but were unable to hit the basket. The teams played fine ball until the second half, w'oen the Marysville team ran up the score cn the Tigers.. Marysville 42 Oroville 1 8 Yuba City at Oroville In this game one of the Yuba City men went wild and piled up the score. Oroville as usual got going for one quarter and made a real showing, but could not keep it up. The score was 16 - 42 in Yuba City's favor. I'op row Chapman, Powell. Bokmann. Hayes, Bump, Qualls, coach Bottom row Gaylor, Mower. Frazier, Lambert At the start of the season the ‘ B squad appeared to have the least promise of any of the three squads, having but two men that had ever played the game before. But with them as a nucleus to build around, men were finally shifted until a combination that worked fairly well was placed on the floor. In their practice games, although they were unable to score very many points, they were able to hold the other teams down, losing by but a few points each game, as their record indicates. Playing Woodland for the first time, Frazier ran wild to score 14 of the 1 7 points when the took them 1 7 to 13. While he was scoring the points his teammates were holding the opposition to but 5 field goals. Playing Woodland again, it was the extra guarding by Bokmann coupled with the rest of the team, which held the Woodland boys to but 5 field goals from near theccnter of the court to force the game into an extra period and then defeat them by one point in the most exciting game of the year These two were the only league games the “B’s” won. As a group the members of this five made more progress in learning basketball than either of the other two team Every one of the sqaud will be improving all the time. Kenneth Palmer, formerly an Oroville Hi star, acted as coach for the ‘‘B” team and the “C” team as well, until the pressure of business relinquish the position. C TEAM “C” Team Starting the league games with a IS to 10 score over the Yuba City ‘babies”, the Tiny Tigers, coached by Orron Qualls, ran rough-shod over their league opponents, then on to defeat Red Bluff and Alturas for the N. C. H. S. A. L. championshp and the right to play Placer Hi for the C. I. F. title, only to lose the latter after putting up a hard fight. In the first practice game of the year they took the visiting Los Molinos five to a 26 to 4 count: split even with Live Oak: dropped two to Red Bluff: the first at Red Bluff going over to three over-time periods before losing by two points. With the league games started for the other teams the -‘C” played some practice games with Yuba City, Biggs and Gridley, missing the first by one point, due to their inability to make free throws, but taking the others with easy playing. In league games. Woodland tasted defeat 24 to 1. A Marysville basketball team was defeated for the first time in years when they went heme with the small end of a 20 to 7 score. Biggs took a trouncing 23 to 8 and the league games ended with a 30 to 1 2 rout for the Gridley b?ys. This last game was costly in a sprained ankle for Pete Powers, who had acted as captain up to that time, but the highest score of any cf the games was made in this one. In playing off the right to piay for tne second title, the ‘ l iny Tigers” Were to meet Red Bluff, the team that had beaten them twice before in the season in practice games. Half-time score read 3 to 1 in our favor. The largest crowd of rooters ever to travel to support an Oroville basketball team cheered them on to their 12 to 1 1 win. In spite of their long trip to Alturas. the Modoc boys were no match for the Oroville beys and were taken into camp 21 to 9. Oroville went on to play for the C. I. F. but Placer was to good and trimmed them. There were no outstanding stars on the team, all playing a good game with everyone scoring in almost every game. They will be back to play again this coming year and if they are able to play together again the shcula go ust as far if not farther. The following made up the peiscnnel of the scuad and will be wearing gold basketballs emblematic of their championship: O. G. Openshaw, and Pete Powers as forwards: M. Simmons as center; H. Zundel. T. Kimura, and M Hill as guards: J. Heinrich did not play enough to warrant a place cn the team. J. Withers aci.ed as manager with M. Chapman. II. Zundel -nd P. Powers were elected honorary co-captains at the end cf the season. Track A and B Oroville had a fine track team this year. Many of its members brought home honors. John Montoya was one of the most outstanding milers Oroville ever had. He rarely lost a race. Besides making his block O, Johnney won a gold metal at Davis meet this year. Art Parker was out throwing the discus and javelin again. He qualified in the semi-finals for both, and in the finals placed second in the discus. He also won a gold medal and block O. Ivor Gregory stepped to the front this season. He spent most of his time running in the 440, although he held a place on the relay team. He placed third in the finals at Chico obtaining a block O. Mike Lewis ran the low and high hurdles. He placed third in the low hurdles at Chico. Mike won his block O. at this race. Bob Morgan placed in the high hurdles at the finals. He also had a fine record throughout the year, and won his block O. Herman Bonham, Richard Rasmussen, and Bob Sorenson were the boys that everyone expected to place in the final meets. They won many firsts and qualified for the finals, but something held them back. Gilmore Hislop and Powell were the outstanding limited men. Hislop placed in the final 880 yard run. and Powell got a first in the pole vault. Other class B men showed good promise even though they didn't place in the finals: they are Joe Cooper. Chet Mower, and Tom Spencer. This was Joe's first year of track and he is showing great promise in the broad jump and sprints. Chet Mower is a good 880 yard man while Tom Spencer throws the discus. Every one is waiting to see what the class B team will do next year. Baseball The baseball team, which was coached unde the supervision of Mr Wilson, began as though they were going to have a very successful year. The team won some of the practice games, but lost all but one of the league games. All the scores were very close. There were four star players on the team: Salzman. who was the best first baseman in the league: Hayes, center field, who made some spectular catches: Ledford, v Jio was catcher and was responsible for the close games, and Kennady, who was our cut;tanding pitcher. The other players cn the team were: Frazier, third base: Openshaw, second: Huse, short stop: Brand, left field: Tuhey. who took Brands place after he received a broken ankle: Jackson, right field: Flood and Andrews pitchers, Kimura. Bokmann. Gibson, Clinton, and Smith were the tubs. Next year Oroville expects to have a fine team as only one of the regular players are leaving IBOTS TENNIS I he tennis teams played only one league tournament with Chico and were badly beaten The players were competent yet they just couldn’t get going. Morgan and M. Simmons played in the doubles, while Wesley Bump played in the singles. Ther are many new players on the horizon who look very promising, especially Merritt Uren, Bernard Richter, and John Heinrich. Morgan Simmons will be back again, and every one is expecting great things next year from the tennis teams. GIBES TENNIS Tennis this year has beea a very popular sport.. Girls turned out every eighth period for the ladder. Each girl has to play the one above her on the ladder. If she wins her name goes ahead of her opponent. For first place Charlotte Rigling and Lucia Wirth played so evenly that it was impossible to say who wfis the better. They had to play several games before the winner could be picked. Finally after several bard played sets Charlotte came out the victor with, Lucia a close second. The other places on the ladder were quite difficult to tell who was going to win. but! after three sets Leona McMillen came out third with Josephine Campbell fourth. 'During the gym classes everyone wants to take tennis so they have to draw to see who will be the lucky six. A Volley Ball 1st row: Vance, Bates, Moseley, Sherman. Wisel, H. Davis, coach 2nd row:Understock, Roberts, Savage, Dabbs, Kauffman, Wirtb. The volley ball season of 19B0 began cn September 20 with the annual call for try-outs for the high school team. In response over fifty girls turned out for the first practice. Within a week Miss Dnvi‘ coach, and Mildred Kauffman, manager, had the first team in shape They won 6 out of 8 games played which was a good percentage.

The Girl’s Basketball teams have had a successful season, even though they were unable to schedule many inter-school games. Of the five games played by the A team, four were victories for cur girls. As most of the members of the team will be in school again next year, we are looking forward to an undefeated season.

They were able to schedule only two games, both with Gridley. The first was lost, and the second, after a hard fight, remained a tie. This team shows great promise for next year. A midget team, made up of girls weighing under one hundred pounds was organized during the semester. They played games witl neighboring grammar school teams, and succeeded in winning them.

The track manager. Lucille Moots, wrote to all the various schools for games but was unable to schedule any, so a high school team was not organized. At the play day track events were held and many Orovillc girls took part in them. Celeste Nelson took first place in the fifty yard dash, with Gloria Moots second. Pearle Jones took first in the hundred yards, and G. Moots second. In Chico many girls went swimming and took part in the various races. Horseshoes and archery have been two main games played during the gym classes. Girl's Hi Jinx “Jenny, read your composition. said one of our I nglish teachers the day after the Girls' Hi Jinx. This is what Jenny read: “Do not expect too much of me, for I went to the Girls' Hi Jinx last night. The alumni girls and the girls A basketball team from Gridley were present. Everyone came dressed in gym clothes. Most of the alumni came in beach pajamas. “During the evening, clever stunts were put on by the different classes. The faculty stunt evoked many a laugh when Miss Smith presided at a mock trial. Several volley and basketball games were played. The Seniors won an interclass basketball game, and Orovillc was victorious over the Gridley and alumni team0. In volley ball the Gridley team was defeated by the Orovillc, girls. “Here is the part cf my composition which I enjoy writing most of all. I am going to tell what the menu included at the Hi Jinx. A delicious feed was held in the cafeteria, the menu consisting of beans, buns and chocolate. The classes were seated at their respective tables, which were cleverly decorated in newspapers, P. K. packages and crepe paper.' “Your composition lacks unity, but I will say. judging from your description, the Hi Jinx must have been a success. So, Jenny I shall give you one more day in which to improve your compositoin. Literary The Double Dare Gene, lounging in a big arm chair before the open fireplace in the parlor of his faternity, glanced idly through a magazine that happened to be on the table at his elbow. He was about to toes it aside when a department an the back of it caught his eye. Listen to this, George, he exclaimed to his roommate, seated on the sofa scanning an evening paper, NOTICE--lonely co-ed would 1 kc to hear from boys from different colleges, especially athletes. Signed. ‘Jeanne Princeton.” That’s just made for us. huh?” “Boy, you said it! It sure fits.’’ “What fits?” exclaimed several classmates, who at that moment burst through the door. Upon enlightenment they burst into loud and prolonged laughter. What a joke it would be if you d answer it. She might sue you for breach of promise or something.’’ chortled the clown of the group, a stout, rosy-faced boy. invariably called Cupid. I dare-double-dare you, whooped another, knowing that he had never passed up a dare in his college career. He had even stolen the dean s toupee; which, but for the loyalty of his friends, would have -t d in bis bemg dismissed from college. Lcu re on!” he cried, and a fountain pen and stationery were shoved before him by willing hands, while various bits of advice and qv. ..ngs were jestingly hurled at him from the boys crowded around his chair. Finally they quieted down enought to think properly and write sense. “Well.” he remarked as he finished the letter and stuffed it into the envelope, “I won't expect any of this mob of fickle old women to go my bail when she dees sue. so I’d better write to some old friends for it.” This brought forth cat-calls and hoots of good-natured derision, the boys knowing he had been reared in an orphanage and adopted at the age of seventeen by an old lady for a companion to her grandson, the redoubtable George. Several days later the fellows burst excitedley into the room and ‘Cupid,” up to his usual pranks, snatched a pillow from the sofa and joined the rest holding it before him. The boys carefully placing a dainty, scented, pink envelope, addressed in a decidedly feminine hand upon it. marveled, with an assumed air of dignity, to Gene and, bowing, extended the pillow and the missive solemnly toward him. As such pranks were not unusual he proceeded to play his part. Picking up ,he letter without giving it a glance he dismissed his servant with a grin. Then his glance dropped to the letter in his hand and his face fell. The boys grabbed each other around the neck and howled with glee. Then he looked up at them and smiled good-naturedly and shoved the letter into his pocket. This action met with loud protest so he opened it and started to read it silently, at which they all crowded in back of hi , each reading aloud to the rest in a different place. This brought a still larger grin upon his face: for. while he was getting the- mean-mg of it, the rest were so jumbling it up that they would not remember a line. There was a something about the letter that attracted his interest, so that, unknown to them, he continued the correspondence until the day before the game between the two colleges. In “her” last letter she had agreed to meet him at his team's goal line after the game that they might know each other better. The game was on. It was the last quarter with but a few moments left, and no score on either side. What was the trouble? Bill, the quarter-back, was out. They carried him from the field. Was it possible? The coach beckoned for him to take his place. The ball was snapped. The two teams piled upon one another in a frantic endeavor to get the ball, and Gene, playing rather far back, saw the ball slip from under a player and roll into the open. A fumble! Quickly he darted forward, and, scooping it up, was off like a frightened deer. As he ran his mind raced over various things not pertaining to the game. Would she meet him if he made it? As the thought struck him he faltered, but only for an instant, and then resumed the mad spurt thinking if she didn't he did net care to know her. How slowly the lines seemed to pass to his quickened mind, and how rapidly they were overtaking him. At last the goal line loomed up and he stumbled across and collapsed on the turf. The final gun was fired. It was over. They had won. He had changed his clothes and slipped out on the field again. T he vast amphitheatre, now silent and empty, presented a great contrast to the seething mass of shouting humanity that had filled it to overflowing but a short hour before. There she stood, on the spot where he had made the touchdown. A feeling of gladness welled up inside of him as he saw her, and as she started toward, him, he saw she was exceedingly pretty. i hat was a wonderful run you made, she said when they met. “Bosh,’' he exclaimed by way of the apology that he felt was necessary. that was only a fluke.” ‘No, because our man fumbled. We lost because you were better. mmmmmmmmmiriaauuuaaai Be honest with yourself.'’ ‘All right: but I ve worked up an appetite so let's go some where.” he answered. As they sat in a quiet little restaurant he remarked about her cdd name. But, she protested, ‘ that is not my real name. It belongs to the people who adopted me. I'm an orphan. My nam. really, is Jeanne La Vey.” “That's funny, so’s mine.” “Wouldn't it be funny if you were my brother? “Say. that would be great. I’ll look it up.” So with this promise they parted and. true to his word, he left no stones unturned as the old saying goes: and, sure enough, to the surprise of all his classmates, they learned she was his sister who had been adopted when very young. Charles Ware WHY WE HAVE THE BUTTES AND TABLE MOUNTAIN Once upon a time when gods and goddesses and giants and giantesses ruled the world, America was not as it is today. Instead of the beautiful Sierra Nevadas, there were only vast plains from the Coast Ranges to the eastern shores of the United States. Ceres, who was a thoughtful goddess, decided to make a chain of mountains to separate California from Nevada. One morning Ceres called upon the giant. Atlas, and his mother to help him with his job. Giant Atlas was very happy to have a change of work, so he started carrying earth from the Coast Ranges to build up the Sierra Nevadas. After he had worked several hours the Sierra Nevadas were complete all but one load, which was to go on top of what is now Table Mountain to build it up (round-topped) as the other mountains, but when Atlas was taking his last load, his mother rang the dinner bell. Atlas, who by that time was very hungry, dropped the load, although he was only halfway across California, and ran to eat his lunch. That is why Table Mountain is flat on top, and why we have the Buttes. Glenn Evans HIGH BALL My friend, Sam Rollston, is a jolly, kind man of rather short stature. He is stout, and of just the build and character one would expect a “Casey Jones of the cab and steel rails to be. He told me the following story v hich was of particular interest to me because we were traversing the actual scenes thereof. It is the kind of story railroad men are reluctant to tell, yet if persuaded to begin, will tell in the most interesting way. This is the story Sam told me: “It was during the winter of '28, that hard season of high water, heavy rain, and extreme cold, that I was running the regular passenger run on the Feather Canyon Division, which is, as you know, between Oroville and Portola. The schedule of trains was arranged so that if I took train No. 2 up the hill on a Friday afternoon, I would get back home at ten o'clock the next morning, and have nearly twenty hours in which to rest and enjoy my home before making the run up the hill again. There were three regular engineers running this passenger schedule, Farnum, Jones, and myself. I was senior to the other two as far as years of service on this road and division were concerned, and I knew that Canyon as well as the engineers who laid out the road in the beginning. But the most treacherous place for any sort of railroading in the winter time is the old Feather River Canyon division. Beautiful and gigantic and scenic, yes. but it is a treacherous and dangerous place in the wet season. “But the service must go cn. no matter what the inconvenience or danger. That is a rule of the railroad that is always kept well in mind, and must be strictly adhered- to. Get your train through, get it through on time, and get it through safely. “So it was that I wy.s called for my run up the hill that wet. windy, foggy afternoon of the worst January that the country had seen for years, to “High Ball No. 2 on her regular run East through the Canyon division. “I remember that I had a secret dread of making that run that night. There had been that same dread the day before when I made the run down the hill: you know, there's something about a dark, windy night that you just can't fathom. But I put the feeling aside, for I had made that same run over and over again for the past twenty ''ears, and I was still alive to tell the stories of those years. Furthermore, it is not in the mind or soul of any “hog-head entrusted with human life and mail, to dread his work. “Somehow, I waded through the brimming gutters and streets, and bracing myself against the sleet and rain-laden gale, arrived at the relief track near the Depot. There good old 3 26, a' Mikado 60 type passenger engine, which was my regular charge, was waiting under lull steam for service. As I swung my grip up the we gangway, and then followed it myself. 1 was comforted by my tireman, I om Allen. They called him Tommy in railroad circles, and he was known as “Tommy, the Gabby because of his ixceed-ingly persistent habit of gossiping. Tommy always had the latest data on all the hirings, firings, transfers, and stocks, who the new super was to be: and all the rest of the railroad news. Well, we serviced the old 316. As every engine crew does before a run, we oiled her driving boxes, rods, valve gear, and the hundred and one working parts of a large locomotive:' we checked her head light, classification lights, running and cab lights, and made everything shipshape for the inevitable run. All these things must be done before the ‘hog is run out onto the main-line and coupled to her “drag ' The drag this night arrived shortly-two mail cars, seven pullmans, diner, and day coach intermingled. Eleven cars on a night like this! Some pull! “Well, shortly after we coupled up, old Cranny, my conductor on the run, arrived with our order, and soon he gave us the “highball to “open her up. Everything went as nicely as possible for a night such as that. I he rain was so heavy that it was impossible to see beyond the pilot to identify any definite object. The pound of the rods, and the feel of a perfectly synchronized machine had dispelled all uneasy thoughts. Shortly we made Paxton, thirty-five minutes late, for we had proceeded rather slowly so as to insure safety to train and passengers. But now we were making into bad territory. I his is the section where the scenic, yet treacherous canyon wally rise sheer from the river banks, and great walls cf granite and shale frown meansingly. And where, at any mom nt. these may come hurtling down to crush the intruding man-made monsters of the rails, or to compose a landslide that would completely cover the tracks and surprise an unwary fireman and engineer into piling up his train. “So now we grew more cautious, watching closely and examining minutely every inch of track and cut ahead of the roaring, fast-moving locomotive. Our nerves were tense. In spite of our watch-fullness, we were wholly unprepared for that which happened next. We were just emerging from the East Portal of tunnel No. 31 when suddenly I saw a granite block of immense proportions come hurtling down onto the track not fifty yards ahead. Tommy saw it too, and almost simultaneously we yelled. “Look-out.’’ Of course there were only two things that could be done: shut off the steam and set the air-- and then sit back and watch our expected doom come rushing at us. Nothing in the world could have stopped those tons of steel and heat before they reached that rock. Fortunately the rock had not landed squarely in the center of the road-bed. Rather, it had landed on the inner side of an open cut, so that the great driving rods rod to the valve gear, and the main driving rod dropped swiftly to hit it a glancing blow. This broke the great pin that connects the the ground. As the momentum of the train pushed it into the ground. swiftly--almost within the flash of an eye--that great engine was thrown up into the air like a toy. and when it finally touched soil again, it was half way to the river, sliding in a perpendicular drop on its side. By the intervteinon of Fate, or the gods of protection, one thing occurred that saved Tommy, the mail-clerk, and me from accompaning the locomotive and the mail-cars to the bottom of that mad, raging, swollen river below. “At the place where this action was so rapidly taking place, there was a large ravine running at a ninty-degree angle to the roadbed. Into this ravine, which was just about the length of old 316, there was lodged a great log: this formed a natural bridge across the deep ravine which fell perpendicular away to the river. It was on this pine “stick’’ that that great mass lodged. I never did realize how that log upheld the weight of the locomotive, or how it stuck there, but it did, and it was the only barrier between us and eternity. When I came to consiousness. it was to find myself down on my back in a corner of the cab, with a large knot on the back of my head. “My, what thoughts do run through one's mind when he returns to consciousness after an unexpected approach to eternity, and finds himself perfectly alive and ready to kick, and with the prospect of living through more of that dear old blessed life of his! But it was after Tommy and I had both made ourselves understand that we weren't sizzling in the fires of the Dark Punisher, and that it was only hot, liberated steam and water that was suggesting the idea, that I extricated myself from my corner, and removed I ommy s seat-box, lunch bucket, grip, and hip-boots from his flattened person. We were finally helped to safety by excited, rudely-awakened passengers who had been unceremoniously jolted from their berths and seats. “As far as the excitement for us was concerned for this night, it was all over. A section foreman was roused at not a great distance up the road, and a wrecking train was soon dispatched to the scene. The wreckage was cleared so that the regular service could be continued. Many exciting things were to result from that eventful night, but those are not for this sory. However, 1 ommy and his pool-hall gossips have many an exciting and somewhat exaggerated tale to tell of his personal experience cn that eventful night in the winter of •28.'' Jimmy’s Nose- An Asset As the sun s rays lengthened, and the deepening dusk settled over ork College, two figures could be seen strolling idly toward the Delta Sigma fraternity house. They were Jimmy Upton and his pal, Barney Olson. As they reached the steps of the house, Barney gave his friend a playful punch. ‘You played a splendid game today, Jim. Good luck for tomorrow, and good night.” They had been talking about the Interscholastic Tennis Championship among the colleges of that state. The semi-finals had been held that day at York College. It was a day of triumph, and on the morrow he was to enter the finals as the only singles player representing his college. The experience which he had gained that day would help him greatly in tomorrow's meeting, and he was determined to make the most of it. Since boyhood he had dreamed of being his school's representative in the state championship. Saturday, the day of the event, promised to be clear. By ten o'clock the grand stands were filled with people eager for the matches to begin. When Jimmy arrived, he could scarcely quell the excitement within him, as he passed among the competitors from rival schools. It was announced that the method of choosing the contestants would be by drawing. Jimmy drew his slip, and his heart missed a beat as he read the name of Jean Armand! The name was familiar to Upton. Jean Armand was the little Frenchman from Hampton College, York’s keenest rival. At last the tournaments began. The doubles championship match was played off first. The galleries were unusually responsive, cheering the winners as they left the court, and at times, giving loud applause to a loser who had exhibited fine sportsmanship. Jimmy was disappointed to hear the umpire announce that York had lost the doubles championship to another college, but somehow he felt better on learning that Hampton also, had lost. The time seemed to fly for Jimmy, and it was net long until he heard his name called, with Jean Armand’s, in the final game of the singles championship. From the gallery one could see the slight figure of Armand approaching the court, followed by the tall figure of Upton, wearing a white rough-neck sweater. A voice from the gallery called, “Hello, Jim, old scout!” The tall figure waved a hand in recognition of Barney, who sat in the very front row, grinning from ear to ear. “Upton serving,’’ announced the umpire, as the boys took their positions. The first thing the player does in the game of tennis, is to find his apponent's weakest point, and to play upon it unmercifully, thus seeking to break up his game. And this was what Jimmy aimed tc do as he pur the ball into play. He soon realized that he was up a very crafty player, for Jean Armand was also picking out his weak point. The Frenchman was essentially a baseline player, while Jimmy played net almost entirely, relying on his height for defense. Upton led at first, for he played a hard, fast game, in true Amer ican style. However, as the match progressed, the Frenchman's clever strokes threatened to run up his score. Nevertheless, Jimmy s wonderful speed and almost uncanny scnce of anticipation served to prevent Armand from pressing him to hard. Toward the middle of the match, and after loosing a game, Jimmy pulled off his sweats;. From the gallery, a feminine voice was heard, “Oh good. I hope he can play better now! A wave of applause swept the galleries when Jimmy acknowledged that the joke was on him. Near the end of the match. Upton realized Armand was gaining rapidly on him. but he fought on with the determination that was characteristic of him, and which was one of the main factors that put him where he was at that moment. Silence reigned as the last game began, with Armand serving. The last game was the most important for Jimmy Uptou. It meant winning the championship, and preventing his school (; closest rival from attaining that honor. Could he outwit the clever Frenchman Would his endurance last? As the game progressed, he began to doubt whether he could overcome these obstacles. And Jean knew that his opponent was beginning to break. The score was now “add in, and Jimmy needed only one moer point to win the game. As he drove the ball hard at Jean s feet, he made a rush to the net. when Armand returned the ball, a strange tbign happened. The sun shone between twb trees, squairly into Jimmy's eyes. He made a rush along the net where he thought the ball was going over, but he could not see clearly. Nevertheless, he raised his racket. Suddenly, just as he struck, something hit him on the nose with terrific force. Though tear-dimmed eyes he could see the ball drop just over the net and then bounce out. he felt a rush ot air. Armand struck, and missed the ball! Jimmy was still in a daze when he shook hands with Armond. The croud cheered wildly as he walked off the court. “You won the championship! Barney kept yelling over and aver as he danced excitely about his friends. “I guess I did.” Jimmy murmured happily, as he rubed his aching nose.--- Dorothy Bumgarner. wm ma THE GIRL AND THE BOY The Girl----------------------------------------- The Boy ----------------- ------------------ -- The Villain------------------------------------ The Girl's Mother ----------------------------- The Girl's Father --------------- ------------- The Girl's Girl Friend------------------------- Scene 1. The living room of Jane Wilmont's home. The room is moderately lighted and furnished in a style becoming to a modern home of a middle class American family.
