For Nan, Nan of 311 people. to refuse to eat lunch with the Bunch because she had to study was a little out of the ordinary, to say the least. And she looked as if something out of the nrdiuary were the mat tart Several 1Eltle, black wisps of hair, hair that was usually perA fectly neat, hung dejectly over her forehead, in her eyes- danced little demons of wrath, there was a clccided puckcr to the corners of her mouth, and her dimples had made a hasty retreat, awaiting a more favorable opportunity. She tore the paper from her lunch, selected a sandwich, propped her Latin book open before her aml then glanced hastily around the vacant study hall. She slammed the book shut; she simply couldn't'study, and that Latin book staring her in the face and re; minding 0f the afternoon test, worried her. She picked up her lunch and started toward the waste paper basket, but on her way there she took a bite, just the tiniest bite imaginable from the sandwich. She gazed at the little, inoffen- sive sandwich in astonishment She had supposed food would choke her, surely no one as miserable and angry as she could eat; But she was facing the undeniable fact that despite her misery and her righteous indignation that bite had tasted good, and she really wanted more. No, she would not eat, she certainly couldntt eat in such a. state of mind as hers. She gave the lunch one half-reluct- ant parting look, then Hung it hastily in the wastehasket. Back to her desk she went, opened-her Latin hook with an air of tierce determination; that Latin positively had to be iearned. After listlessly turning a few pages her gaze traveled to the waste paper basket; she was ratherhagain the Latin book was slammed shut and down on her arms went her head. cherl never in the Page Nine C AERULEA whole wiclc wnrld lmrl there ever hecn such a miserable, abused, unhappy creature. Everything harl gone wrong from the alarm clock on. In the first place, not handing the warning of the little, shrill-voiced alarm, she had drifted blissfully back into untroubled slumbcrs, and consequently as she reached the corner she saw her car sail tantalizingly by. There had heeu nothing to do but walk, so walk she did. llcr shoes were painfully new, and she could fairly feel her morning curls unkinky in thc foggy morning air. When she had finally waded through dust, Mumhlcd over ClOdR, fallen down small jumpingwoff placeg, and other like 111isl'ortuncs, she reached school. She harl searched vainly for her locker key. It was. gone. She rushed to the office; she was politely informed that the duplicate key was lost, evidently harl been taken from the office. The principah with his bunch of kcys, had been her last hope. He had been called to the city. All of these had been troubles, but they faded into iusignift- cance beside the great trouble. The Bunch had decided to give a Leap Year party, foolish things anyway, Leap Year parties, thought Nan, and each girl had to invite :1 hey. She had waited. and hesitated, and thought, and weighed their respective twcightsl virtues and worths in the balance, and fmally from the throng she had chosen Ierry. She knew perfectly well she was going to ask him, all the time, but it was fun to consider deeply erc she tool: such an important step. Only that morning she had written him the note inviting him, and heavily umlergcorcd after the fashion of feminine note writers were the words: lbBe sure and let me know before noon. And he hadn't let her know, and he had had several Oppon tunities. They had passed often in the study hall. and it was too late to ask any one else. She could hardly wink back the tears when she thought of the dream of a dress, all new and soft and silky and blue and covered with tiny roscbuds, spread out on the guest? chamber bed. Her head came up with a jerk. Miss 13- had told them the day before if they came to Latin class without their composition tablets she wouId have to seml them to the othce. and Nan's tablet lay securely inside her locker. She would simply have to get into it, if she had to break in. Some one came inm the ronmt It was the principal. Page Ten LEAP YEAR AND A LOCKER KEY nMany I borrow the key for locker lwonty-fivc, please ?'l asked Nan. Certainly he would he very pleased to let her have it. She grabbed the key and hurried down the hall. The girls were com- ing in from lunch, the warning bell had already rung. Nan didn't glance to right or left. If one of the silly, curious girls said any? thing about the party, Nan felt sure she would slap her. She rushed 11p to her locker; the key didnlt fit; it was me wrong-no, finally it slid into the key hole and opened the door. She reached and pulled frantically around for that composition talr let, but found instead, almost under her very nose, right where it must have been pushed through one of the little ruund pigcon holes, a piece of fmlscap paper, cronkcxlly folded aml addressed in an almost illegible and decidedly masculine hand: Miss Nancy O'Rear, Long Beach Polytechnic High School, Long Beach. Calif. She fingered it a minute, womalrfashion. before opening it; then a sudden inspiration dawned upon her. She tore the note open and read The frown vanished from her forehead, the pucker disappeared, and two dimples pceped timidly from their hiding place. It was. all very clear now. It had probably been there all morning, and Jerry, poor, innocent Jerry, how she had misjudged him! She slipped the note into her packet as if it had been the most unimportant thing in the world. Then she smiled again, one of those nice little inward smiles that make you feel warm and happy all over. Uh! but I'm hungry! Ethelynne M. Smith. l12.

When Tony had sold his last paper, he turned his face from the brilliantly lighted streets and ran hard and fast through dark and crooked ways until he came to the rickety shanty he called home. He ran inside and soon came out again with a neat little pine box, one of his few treasures. This he set down under a scrawny rose tree which grow by the door. Then he began tear- Page Fourteen THE EASTER FA IR Y ing up handfuls of such dry grass ah the narrow Strip oi lawn af- forded, and, placing it in the box, sucucuilcd in making a very rei spectahle looking nest.

But Tony did not hcccl his brother's sarcastic rcmarks, autl fell asleep that night for the first time in his life with a happy smile of expectation on his face. Easter Sunday dawned brightly, aiul Tony was. up with the first ray of light.

And across the street, unnoticed by the two iittie figures in front of the shanty, a beautiful lady, with violet eyes and hair like gold, smiled sweetly :md hurried along on her mission of cheer.

Loom up as guards to keep us through the night; And earth in stillness bids farewell to day. Then o'er the ocean blazes bright the way Made by thu ball of FIFE, with glorious might, That seems to Check the coming of the night And keep all gloom and darkness far away; I stood entranced and gazed upon the scene, And in my soul there burned a great desire To make my life a sun for those sad souls.

His father cleared his throat. but his mother spoke. nRichard, we think, that is, wctve bean talkinghthe high school-. Dick straightened. and Mrs. Elton turned appealingly to her husband. Madge stepped in and saved the clay. Dick, she said, do you remember what a green little dummy I was before I left the village and went away to school, and how diHcrent I was when I came back? That's what we want for you. You are to go to Evanston Military Academy next week She spoke the words de- cisively. Dick looked greatly mystihed and a little hurt, His mother came to the rescue. And Dick, they will prepare you tor the Uni7 versity, there, and perhaps, when you are ready, we can afford to send you? Turning to the older man his shining eyes, hFather, do you mean it ?'t he exclaimed. Don't be tog sureY my boy but if things turn out ali right, it may happen so. But whatever happens, we want to make a man of you. Where did I put my hat? It's nearly closing time at the bank, and I told Brown-, The front door closed softly as he made an ignominious retreat. Madge, out in the hail, looked at herself reproachiully. in the mirror. I didn't want to hurt him, she totd her reheation, but he must understand that he should be different from the village boys.

Smiling oddly, 1 caught father in Dick's mom today, she said, 'and he asked me why I didn't put some of my pennants and trophies up, to take the place of Diclds, so that when he comes home it wotft look so like a tomb. And Dick only gone a wcck. Madge ran her fingcr idly along the backs of the booksl Louking at her mother suddenly, unawares, she started. She hadn't realized her mother was getting old. Why, she always acted Dick's age. 'lDonlt look that way, mother. It's hard, 1 know, but welvc got to stand it. aud it won't be 50 bad when we get used to it. Mrs, Elton arose. Kllt's only that I havc :1 headache. I think I'll go up stairs. When M1: Elton came home he found his wife and. daughter trying to gossip over the tea table, each with a faraway look in her eyes. Mrs. Elton, for the first time in her life, put two lumps of sugar In his tea. But he did not know the difference, though he detested sugar. Something seemed to be wrong.

How deserted Evans- ton was. She had always heard that college towns were fairly swarming with boys. And surcly it must be long after school houns. Somewhere in the distance there swelled a great roar made up of muffled cheers and shouts. They told her at the oHice that Richard Elton was at the game. VVuulil she wait? He would soon be back; or her message cuuhl be taken to him immediately. But the mother was deter- mined on a surprise, and besides, how could she wait? The base ball game was over. High on their shouklch, the Evanhtou buys curried their hcmus of the day. Mrs. Elton stepped timiilly aside as the mighty crowd surged dawn the street.

It was a day like this, when the horizon was yellow with dust, that the little Freshman girl mounted the Willows locai to find that The Boy was on the same can No wourler her heart beat faster, for she was under going her Erst case of hero worship; and , although 5hr: little suspected it, The Boy had long admired her from afar, even if he was too bashful to speak to her. As The Girl stepped from the car she dropped her new Intmv ductory Latin. and in an instant the winrl had whirled the loose papers out of reach. The Boy saw his chance and, with the amused upper classmcu shouting encouragement, he started in pursuit. Soon ail the papers had been captured except one, which was especially frisky and, although several times almost within his reach, each time darted mischievousiy away. Finally it was held against a fence by the force of the wind, and as he seized it he saw, to his surprise, his own name written all over the page. After one glance. he hurried back to where The Girl stood. blushing painfully, and handed the papers to her with the unruly one on top. As she thanked him she saw what was on the paper. and for an instant they looked at each other. Then, as he saw a laugh in her eyes, The Boy asked, Will you go to the Huntington Beach debate with me?

Page Thirty- three Greek At the very dawn of the foot hall season a tall, muscular lad was seen cvcry night out on the athletic fichl practicing vaulting and jumping. This: personage was Captain Wilson of the track team and a close rival of the great Long.

The young wonder, Mitldough, snatched a wreath of glory away from Page Thirty-Iaur A THLETICS the famous Dill by winning the low hurdle race in the remarkable time of 26 seconds Hat. After the meet our knights were shown real school spirit as it exists at Occidental. A feed was given in their honor and ribbons awarded to the prize winners. From what we heart the fellows had a keen time, and hope some day to return the good will and good time exhibited by the college men. On the twenty-fourth of February the return meet with San Diego was held, and San Diego was avenged for the close victory we had won in the southern city. We were defeated by a score 01' 69 to 53. The score looks bad, but the meet as a whole was excite ing from beginning to end. In the broad jump aur captain made a. leap of over twenty feet, thus obtaining a medal offered by our good friend.

Being able to arrange only two games the entire scason, which were comparatively easy, we were nut in condition to play such a swift, strong team as Orange. Consequently, they defeated us in the series for the championship of Southern California. Our first game was with Humiuglon Beach, the score being 28 to 12 in our favor. On the tenth of February wu defeated Santa Ana by a 24 to 18 score. Some good, new material was discovered this year. The little Sophomore, Edith Harding, played a swift game at forward and de- veloped to advantage the uonc-arm shot. Watch her next year. Elsie Fulton was another Fll'ld, playing well wherever she was placed, hut excelling in the position of guard. She's a Freshman, so we can rely on a good guard for the next three years. While we were lamenting the 1055 01' our jumping center, Helen Thodc came out and proved beyond a duuht that she was what we wanted. a. swift and heady center who could jump Dorothy Day, last year a center. went in at forward and made good. Next year she and Edith Harding. having had the advaxr tagc of playing together this season, are going to do things. Page Thrrly-xl'x A THLETICS Esther Dayman, captain and running center of 10. '11 and ,12, played her usuai swift, snappy game, and will be out again for 13. Viola Gardner returned to school in January to till her posi- tion of guard again this year, which she did very efficiently. Virginia Cmuk went out for guard this year, and it is due 10 her success at this, that we owe a great deal of the strength of our forwards, having given them good, hard practice Helen Perkins, manager, and EJHC of ihe best guards in the state, played an excellent game at her position, Miss Perkins suf- feted an injury in the first game with Orange for the champion- ship. Which ended her career at basket ball. Hole is a Senior and has fought her imit battle for the honor of the Green and Gold. We shall miss you. Helen. but may you enjoy the same success thru life that you have at basket ball.

W'heuever this old school can turn out as good 1 team as represented us this year in this sport, we shall never have a reason to comptain, Quoting from the welliliked manager, Charlie Andmws: TiBoys, basket ball is here to stay. The revival of the sport is now an es- tablished fact. The season set out with such materiai as XViIson. W. and R. Middaugh, Matteson, Marshall, Campbell, McCormick, Bartow and others. XVith the addition of the new men, the source of which is large, it promises bright things for the future. Let us hope 50. Charlie.

When we consider that hand ball was last year, ior the first time, added to our list of intercluris activities, we must recognize it! once the popularity the game has attained. Credit is now given for hand ball, making it all the more desirable for those who do not care for the more strenuous sports. Only one of the inierclass cotltcets for the cup has been played up to this time. This was the Freshmau-Sophnmore series, and was won by the Sophs by a 25 t0 8 score. The Scnior-Junior contest will be played 50011, and the winner of this will meet the Sophomores in the championship series. A school team wit! be chosen from the different class teams. A movement is now on toot to form an intcr-scnlastic hand ball leaguct As Long Beach is one of the leaders in the movement, every student should become a. booster oi the game and try to land the first hand ball championship. Ray Mcacham. E Ease 33a Long Beach has one of the best base ball teams in the history at the school. Last year the boys pulled down the pennant, and are ready to do the same thing again. Unhampcred by the ele- ments, the team has been practicing hard for many weeks, and are now rounding into perfect shape. The team has had a few practice games with the college teams, and in each case showed up to advantage, defeating the Occidental iVarsity and giving the fast U. S C, team a good fight Our first game with a team of our class was with San Diego on their Field, on the twentyifourth oi Fehruary. Handicapped by the absence of Ross Middough, we were defeated by a score 01' 3 to 2. Of the game, the San Diego Union said: In one of the fastest games ever seen at Athletic Park, the local High School de- feated the Long Beach High School team by a score of 3 to 2. Page karry-cghi .4 THLETICS Altho the Long Beach boys played as fast and heady a game as seen here. they seemed to play against luck. Twice. the bases full, they failed to connect for a hit. Craig, the Long Beach twirler, seemed invincible until the eighth inning, when a Eucky two-bagger cinched the game for San Diego. With Bones, Holloway, Craig and Reagan in the infield; and with James, Day and W'ilcox iu the outfield; and Middough and Lawrence :15 the battery, we have :1 machine that is going to crimp the hopes of many aspirants to the pennant. We have every thing now but the support of the students. Is the pennant worth your support, students? Think it even Ray Meacham. El 51mm With tha- completion of three time courts and the offer of credit toward graduation for two hours work per week, a large number of students have signed up for tennis. The interclass tournament resulted in thc Sophomores. winning the cup. From the class material an interscholastie team has been chosen, including Edwin McCormick, Clarence Thode, Charles Thompson, Manager John Craig, Florence Flint and Miss Puichcr. With this strong aggregation representing us. the outlook is very bright. As yet the schedule has not been completed. Ray Mcacham. Page ThirIy-nrnc E music E Three cheers for the Band! ! The greatest booster in our High School. What would our rallies amount to if we didnit have a band? Why, nothing ol any consequence. The band is our in- spiration, our router and our help. XVho could sit through one of our student hotly rallies with the hand playing without thinking himself mighty lucky that he is able to share in the praise of our hand? Who could sit on the bleachers during one of our track meets or one of our base ball games with the band playing Steanv boat Bill , without yelling and boosting our team on to victory? That is what our band does for us. It is our leader in the fray called 'School Spirit. Our chorus is going to give us one of the biggest surprises we have ever harl. Listenmthis is the secretoThey are going 10 give a Cantata and they are. going to be helped by some of the most talented soloists that can possibly be found. Isn't that fine! The Glee Clubs are doing remarkably good work this year. They have received many praises from the town's people and from those who heard the concert given by the clubs last year. Perfect results can only be gained by good, hard labor from both lender and students. We expect to have perfect work; and so all con- cerned are working diligently. A new musical appreciation class has been formed this last semester. So many of the students became interested in it that it became necessary. A musical appreciation rally was given in one of our assemblies last month, which aroused the enthusiasm of many. Miss Brooks entertained by a talk on some of the great artists, She was assisted by Miss Olive Powers and Miss Marion Rogers. who gave some very beautiful piano solos. The second of our series of concerts was given by l'Iaroldi. the greatest violinist in America. He was received with great en- thusiasm. as was Mrs. Tiffany, who assisted. Mrs, TiH'any won a place in our hearts by her beautiful, clear voice and by her charm- ing grace and manner. The third concert was given by the greatest woman-cellist liv- ing. Mlle. Ruegger was greeted with much eordiality and every one was delighted with her. Our concerts have been well support: ed by our town's people, who do so much to help us. The fourth concert was given by Morgan Jones, a resident of our city, whom everyone enjoyed. Page Forty w Long Beach High Schooh hy defeating Manual Arts High School has shown twice that she is wlhcmt a pour in tho debating circles of Southern California, and incidentally placed herself at the head of the Sinmltnneoim Debating League of the South, Many people thought. when they heard of the simultaneous debatv ing system, that the two debates. occurring at the same time would divide the support; but this was not the cascg as forty or more eu- thusiastic rootcrs at Long Beach High School, led by General Baldwin, accompanied Tucker and Cook to Manual Arts. Both dc- hates were exciting from start to finish, and the way those many hcrs of Baldwinlg army did root! Their ohc thousand pupils didnyt make much more noise than our forty. We are certainly proud of our debaters this year. Of the four fellows who debateti for us. only one had been on an inter Scholastic debate before. The way in which they performed shows that Long Beach does not spend all her time working on the inter- scholastic material, but all the time we are developing new mater- ial to Fill the boots of the veterans who graduate, So much for the Manual Arts debate. That is a thing of the past, and Long Beach is at the head. of the league. The question now is, can we stay there? We shall have a much harder debate next time than we had last. Huntington Beach has had more ex- perience than Manual Arts, and she has men who have debated as much as our men. while Manual Artsy men were all new If we defeat Huntington Beach, we will he in for the championship and, with the debaters and coaches working as hard as they are, we sure ought to win. At least. if we don't, it won't be our fault. Our debaters are top notcherst and if every student of Long Beach High will get a little pep into him, and boost the team in everything that they do. we shall get another one of those bani ners with which to adorn our walls.

Juniors and Seniors could hclung to the House; but according to the new constitution only Juniors and Seniors are eligible. However, the Sophomores that were already members were retained because of their experience in the Mouse work. The office of assistant Speaker was mlclczl lo the regular officers of the House. We wish to urge all Juniors aml Seniorsi whether you have had much debating experience or nuL to apply tor mcmbcrship. The purpose of the organization is to acquaint ourselves with cur- rent events. Besides. it will make a good dcbater of anyone who really works. The Iluuse needs members and you fellows, who have not as yet joined, need the House. We want to make our society a larger on? and one that will mean more in the life of the students. Any Junior or Senior buy whn thinks he is interested in the HOUSE can come to our I11ccti11gs any Monday afternoon the ninth period and see what we really do.

PIacc-Room 333, Long Beach High School. Time-March 1, 1912. Five O'clock p, mt Synopsis of playeThe annual banquet of the Caerulca Staff, at which they are entertaining as guests the dichrcnt Caerulea ex- changes, and each character, representing the high school to which she belongs. gives an illustrated account of the life. activities and literary progress of her school. A soft tapping on the door. Enter Miss Alert from Turlock. California She is a dainty looking person. and dressed in :1 simple, though artistic fashion. She tells a little story which she calls Only a Christmas Sotlgliuu sweet little talc. which is so heartily applauded that she tells of the plan of student control, as practiced at Turlock High School. It is a system which is based solely upon the integrity of the individual. Some of the staff anal guests as- sembled look doubtful as to the advisability of the plan. but by the time Miss Alert has Huished her account of the student control system, even its stoutest opponents begin to l'IOtl their heads in alr proval, as though they were partly convinced anyway. Although possessing many good characteristics, Miss Alert does not scent m be very witty tthc few jokes which she does tell being rather ohm. and the pictures and cartoons with which she illustrated hertalk were few and far between, Miss February Troubadour next arriveshrcssed rather pretv tily, her costume carrying out the idea of a valentine. She tells two clever, laughable stories, and the entire company is greatly ilk tcrestetl as well as amused m hear the tale of Tom. Tom, the Piper's Son, as the different authqrs would have said it. Her reu- tlition of it showed cleverness as well as originality. She is a lively little body from start to finish. and the hostess pronounces her as always welcome. Her talk also would have been more interesting to all had she illustrated it with more cartoons and pictures. Page Farly-three CA'ERULEA Miss Acropolis, from Whittier College, who has remained silent for some time, now arises to entertain the Company for :1 short while. She is :I. plain, sensible Ioolcing person, and Speaks with a directness and simplicity which entirely captivates her lis- tenersi She tells an especially remarkable story, iiThe Voice of a Friend, which is pronounced by the company as one of the best, if not the best, story which has hccn related at any of their annual banquets. Next 5110 gives a piece entitled Our Circus. which is both clever and original, This. is Miss. Acropolis' first appearance in Long Beach, but her debut is a howling success, and she will ai- ways be welcome. A very unpreposscssing Eooking person is next ushered in. uml is introduced to the crowd as Academy Record from San Antonio. Texas. She starts her talk in a strange manner: It seems that she wants to put in a good word for some of her San Antonio mezu chants who have shown a loyalty and interest in her school. and in her enthusiasm, she does her advertising, as it were, before she Says another thing. Had she saved this talk till last, it would have helped her speech wonderfully. A little poetry would also have helped, but she does not recite a single stanza. and the staff wow KiCI'S, ii representing the ability of her schoolWis there no poetic ability in San Antonio. Texas? One more fault which the little lacly has, is. that of telling some very ancient jokes. However. fat out-baiancing these faults. is. the marvelous way in which shc cap? tivates her listeners by the splendid stories which she tells, l'A Sister's Devotion'i being especially worthy of praise. May Acadi emy Record be present at Long Beach High often! A very prettily dressed person talks to the crowd. and is well received on account of her charming manner and artistic appear- ancc-alsn on account of the beautiful poem which she recites. cnv titled The King. Like 31E of us, she has her faults, which are chieHy as follows: She needs more pictures and cartoons, with which to make her talk scum more realism; and more good stories. This lady's name is Miss El Gahilan. Miss Manzanita Bark from ?an Alto next appears. wearing a dainty little suit of tau, and throughout her entire Costume the. color scheme is perfect. She holds the attention of her list6ncrs throughout her entire recital, because of the splendid way in which she has planned her speech. Every department of which she speaks is well handled-good cartoons, jokes, and an cspecialiy Page F arly- fnur EX CHA N 055' clever story. ttEric's Eventful Flight. The audience can find no adverse criticism for her, and she is cordially invited to come again. A familiar face is now seen, which is recognized as that of M iss Owl of Fresno High School. She is an old comer, and is heartiiy received. She starts out by telling a remarkable little tale which she calls Only a Valentine. There is something very pathetic about it, and a number of the guems are seen to swallow sus- piciously hard and fast. As a contrast to this, she recites a poem, Sad Plightf which is really laughable. She has an especially beautiful drawing to show to the company. and an original way of writing her exchanges. Next, Miss December item talks to the crowti-not vcry charming to look upon it is true, but a very interesting talker. 5hr hails from Pasadena High, and school spirit is fairly bunting from her. Everything she Says smacks of enthusiasm and wit. and if she be a true rcprcscntativx: of her achoul, the entire stle, :15 well as guests, agree that thch must be a loyal bunch of students at Pasadena High School. Liss- Item is a typical athletic girl, and she tells a story of at toot hall hem and his lady love which is thoroughly enjoyed by all. Everyone at the banquet was very happy to welcome the NH. cs Courier and Stndcnt Life, hoth representing colleges. the former the Cnlicge of Music of Cincinnati, the latter, Pomona Coi- legc. The talks of both these young ladies were highly appreciated by all, being very beneficial to these younger, more inexperienced high school students. The Misses Manual Arts, Echo of Santa Rosa High, Tyre of San Bernardino, Ariel of Santa Ana, Lowell of San FranciscoV Russ of San Diego, Said and Dune 0f Muskegon, Mich., a very clever and interesting person; Argus of Tulare, and Oracle of Bakersfield, were also very welcome upon this occasion. Last. but by no means least, arrive at the banquet the three World sisters, December, January and February, who hail from St. Paul, and the three Comet sisters, Christmas. New Yearis and Val- entine. The former three come in with a burst, and are by far the most lively, witty and vivacious persons present, They are full of school Spirit and enthusiasm, and the cartoons with which they illustrate their talks are pronounced by all as excellent. However, they can hardly surpass the latter three, who come from Milwam kce. They are dressed, Oh, so artiSticaily, and seem to have no end of good stories and joshes. These six make a great hit. and succeed in finishing oFf the evening entertainment in a delightful manner.

Vesta Cornell gave an interesting talk on ballads and gave a few selections from the Victor phonograph. Lenore AI- Ian sang some very pleasing songs, and three of the girls: sang a pretty trio. That day was the beginning of my career. For the last three years I have been performing mighty work, interrupted Boys' Quartette Muse, hand I am still progressing. I go under four different names, Lorne Mirhlough. Way Middough. Bert Mason and Harry BuHum, I not only please the students but I am very popular with the townspeople. I helped iGlec Cluh' give her concert and am ailways ready for duty when called. I am justly prourl of all of you, spoke up the Queen of Muses, and hope,that next year you can all do as much, if not more. for the glory of Long Beach High School as you have done in the year 1912. .

Page One Hundrld Nineteen attic Soclcty A Sophomore Class has always bucu known for its unlimited amount of wisdom. The class of ninetaemfourteeu has condensed its quota of this characteristic into organized form, and the remit is a flourishing mciety renowned far and near as The Attic Society. The two-foltl nmaning of this name is nhvious to all profound thinkers. 'J'hosc whose intellectual ability it: not stiHicicntly developed to solve the problem may ask Mr. McClintock for information. Since experience is such a necessary traveling cumpaniun through life. the society pruvillcs a short term for its nHiccrs, thereby giving to more students 3.11 opportunity to hold executive positions. This plan has proved very successful and is heartily recmnmunded to similar societies. The first sat of oHiCL-rs were: Prrsidcut. Mr. Arthur Wil- cux; Vice-President. Miss Margaret Iiixby; Secretary, Miss Fay? Melvin. The present incumhcuts arc: President. Miss Mabel Martin: Vice-l'rcaidem Mr. LCStL'r Laraway: Secretary. Miss; Lois Dolley. The chairman of the pmgrmn committee holds, perhaps. the must inmortant lmsilinn in the organization. Upon that person rests the succ of ?Elcll meeting and the life ml the society. The object of the suciwty is 'ito acquire all the knowledge pussihlc as quickly as possible. Consequently our pmgmms have been varied and intcrusting.

All Freshmen were invited to join. and every other Friday afternoon we spent an enjoyable imur developing our talents againht the awful time when W'L' should be calied upon to choo. from our midst :1 team which should match points with the mightyi Sophs. The society did such fine work that our Principal was convinced lhat it would be well worth while to have furty-hvc Illinuies uf every Monday afternoon devoted to literary work: and societies were ac? cordiugiy formed in the diHL-rcnt classes. Under the new :orgauizatim: our mmiibcrship grcw to over one hundred. and we took our stand in the Mscmbly hall, compelling other organizations to take up their abode in more remote parts of the globe. The work had now assumed a clilfcrcm characteri Music current events. chiminute talks, and other variatinns were woven in with the debating. 011 a n'hulc the scheme has been one grand succcss from start to finish.

Seven My Bicycle mep 0T long ago the Patres Urbia got together and decreed that every vehicle other than a baby carriage should display A light after dark. l was rather glad to obey the order. To my nation there was little excitement riding at night unlesu my pathway could quickly be cleared of all creeping pedestrians by a glaring headlight. When I went for the lamp, l found the lords of the establishment all busy in the tea: of the shop. One of them was just then in a very undignifled position under a motorcycle. In a moment he looked up from his work. Seeing that l was not very apt to buy a motorcycle, which is the only thing he cared to sell. he gave a grunt and went right on with his work. After a time, however. he found it necessary to arise. A large and very important nut had llippecl down his collar. Very meekly I told him I wanted a lamp. Slowly and painfully he picked out the melt expensive one in stock and then. adding hfty cent! for his trouble. he snide u l'hha is four dollars. During the pause that followed he proceeded to extract the nut from his collar by means of a screwdriver. A- l recollect now. the man was doing this with many strange contartionl. much as l have seen mother try to falten her dress in the hack. I paid ltitle attention to this then. because I was out to spend money. and this is always a moat important task. The lamp looked like a good one. AI that was junt what I wanted. I bought it. I quichty hurried home with it. Hnd it not been for my haste I might never have insulted it by Filling it with oil. Somehow or other the lamp tool: this action In much to heart that. try as I would. I could never coax it to do its duty as a lamp thereafter. It simply would not burn. Highwspiritecl and immenlely provoked. l haltened back with it. The man. an before. lay Hat on his back un- derneath a motorcycle. oiling the path. When he saw me. he opened hil mouth to give another grunt. and immediately five large drops of oil flowed into it from the oil can. After he had cooled down sufficiently. I made bold to remark that he ought to be ashamed of himself for selling a lamp like that when it wouldn't even light. He explained that, as it was a. carbide lamp. it must accordingly be filled with carbide. Henceforth, I always spoke of the wrong- Eight CAERULEA doings of my lamp with mildneae. for fear they might be cauled by some fault of my own. I bought a can of carbide. At lalt. after a grievous de- lay. l. faint Heme appeared. Overjoyed. I coaxed and en- treated it to grow. but to no avail. If I turned it up, it smuked. I turned it down, it lputtered and went out. In fact. it wan more than stubborn. It generally took at lean ten minute: for it to make up its mind whether it was going to light at all or not. At the end of that time I took it for granted that it needed carbide. and accordingly stuffed it with thin. Then I' had to wait some time longer before being absolutely positive that the lamp required water. It always took a long time to End a faucet and to satisfy thin need. Aften ten minutes longer. I always knew positively and def:- nitely that it was not going to light at all. Needle to any. I usually spent the next few minutes in making a few remarks .brief and to the point. One day, mind you. the IampIu perversity extended even into the daylight While I was riding along one mom- ing in a great hurry to get to achooI there suddenly was a great clatter at my feet.

The clinking of glasses grew louder and louder. At last the Jovial Friar turned and called. Nanie. oh Nanje. The room was thick with tobacco smoke, but a woman's form, bent with more than the weight of years. could be deseried in the doorway.

A lilence fell over the company, for they all dearly loved the fat one's stories. The Friar gave a parting pull to his pipe, I parting sip to his glans. anti began: About fifty years ago there lived a small tribe of Indiana on San Nicolas Island. San Nicolas is only a series of rocky peaks above the level of the sea. absolutely devoid of any spear of grass. and the people lived on crabs and an occasional whale that was washed ashore. Eleven CAERULEA But the whales were growing healthier and healthiert and the crab: were growing craftier and craftier. an inch by inch starvation set in among the people. The first to tiie wan Mekentah, the hoary fisherman. His wife watched him daily grow paler and paler; his withered Hesh grew more and more transparent; his aching hone: protruded from his wrinkied akin. His fair young daughter and her lover watched beside his bed. both faint and weak with hunger. And one stormy night. a: an owl hooted to its mate. Mekentah's soul sought the Great Spirit. Once again the angel of Death hovered over the island. and through long hours of agony Mekentah's daughter watched her Iover slip, ping farther and farther away from her. Once he raised himself. by a supreme effort. on his elbow. and whispered in his strange tongue, '00 not leave me.' 'Never,' promised the girl. passionately. Two days later they dug hil gmve. And then came boats from San Pedro with help. The girl watched the poor remaining derelictn of her once powerful race. as sturdy Spaniards bore them to the vessels. She looked out over the calm. green sea. Plenty. ahe knew, lay far away over the water somewhere. She looked back at her lovexis grave and the pile of melts that lay above her father. When the boat set sail, the overseer noticed that she had eluded them; she was probably back on the island mourning by her lover's grave! Gmmbingly. they were preparing to return, when a storm suddenly atone. All fought hard at First and desperater later. but the ships cap- sized. and not a soul survived. Well. the year! rolled by. and finally in about 1800 a Spanish sailing vessel stopped at San Nicolas for seals. and saw sign: of human habitation.

They were worn on this particular clay because he was to ride Tombstone and Calamity, the meanest bronca on the ranch, for the girls who were visiting at the headquarters. This was the First time that either of the broncs had been actually ridden. When he mounted Calamity the cowboy: hollerede Watch the coyote pitch. uBet the 3055' be scared plum to death when he sees all them girls awatchiu' him.

The little bay shook vigorously, pawed. reared, plunged. jolted. lurehed. and landed with front legs planted in the ground stiff as pokera, but the Boss sat firm. The girls cheered from their horses. They were all interested in the bran: riding. but Ann, the little city girl. was the most excited of all. She gloried in the skill of the Boss. and when he rode Calamity. she rose from her saddle. clapped her hand: and cheered. A blind dash, the bronc fell against Ann's sorrel. A snort. a leap. he ran like mad. lnatantly the Boss pursued. He might resent the presence of women on the ranch. but he certainly would not let one of them come to harm in a runaway. Far in the lead raced Sorrel Top, Ann's favorite mount. Tombstone, a fiea-bitten gray. was by no means Sorrel Top's equal, but the Boss spurtecl him on. He crept closer and closer until they were running neck and neck. The Boss reached for the sorrells bridle. His hand was stayed by a ripple of laughter. Looking up in surprise, he saw the girl sitting erect, eyes dancing, cheeks Crimson, lipo smiling. thoroughly enjoying the run. A fleeting look of admiration crept over the man'a btonzed face as he turned to his own horse. Ann had won the cowboys. Few girl: could ride like that and enjoy it. Fonso said. She rode like a Mexican, and Fonso knew. Fifteen CAERULEA That evening the cowboys gave a dance in the white- washed bunk house. And such a glorious dance. The wet Hoar tried to hide under a thick coat of cornmeal. Here and there two boards in upheaval reminded one of a childis illustration of mountains. Three spike nails warned the dancem not to go near the fire-piace, two others defied them When they glanced at the front door. A new water bucket, a jelly glass. and a blue teacup substituted for a punch howl And glasses. The orchestra. composed of a Franch harp anti a Fiddle with two good strings, occupied no set place in the hall. but wandered from one window to another as the mood struck them. And the cowboy hosts!

Only the Boss was at ease. Never be- fore had the boys seen him dance. In filCt. he never at- tended the dances. but at this one he was certainly the bent dancer there.

The next dance after the two-step with Slim was a waltz. Ann's partner was the Boss. in answer to his ques- tion.

What do they get in return for their support? Some of them say they get nothingethat they advertise in our paper merely because they desire to boost our activities. Should we not make it our business to see that they get practical re- sults? Trade with the merchants whose ads you find in this issue. Let's show them that this is a business proposition. Building and Ground: The cleanliness of our gmunds should be a matter of pride to every student. We are proud of a winning team, because it bring: honor to the school At the same time we bring dishonor to the school by putting paper plates thru the gratings, stuffmg paper in the desks. and walking on the grass. The Building and Ground Committee is doing good work. but everyone must realize that the greatest results come from the students themselves. Letts get behind this pxoposition and gve Long Beach High the cleanest grounds in Southern California. Athletics Nothing given life to a school so much as a high Itand- nrd of athletics. Nothing can so give a high standard of athletics as keen competition. Appearances indicate that in all branches of athletics competition will this year be keener than ever before. Large numbers have turned out for football and hnskthall, and many of the fellows have already commenced training for track. Keep it up. felw lows: it mean! a successful year. Generll Auembliec How about it? Shall we retain control of our own assemblies? 1!: is for us to decide. Just so long an we main- tain the proper order and manifest the proper spirit we shall continue in charge We all enioy assemblies. They ere interesting. They can he made pruthable.

These points are awarded for a high standard of work in etmiies, iiterary activities. athletics. debating, Caerulea, and service in the Student Body. The broad scope of the project should in- lure its success. and it merits the support of every student. The Athletic Fence Blisters! That is what many of the loyal boosters are displaying on the palm! of their hands. Honorable scars they are. won in honest toil. For several years Long Beach has longed for a fence around her athletic Field. At last. thru the good management of last yeafl administration and the prugressiveness of Hugh Shippey. our present commiSa sinner of athletics, our dream is realized. It is a fence to be proud of, for every bit of the labor necessary for its con- struction has been done by High School fellows. The loyal suppart given this project is but another evidence of the school spirit of Long Beach High. The Fire Department The Fire Department is new this year. and from all in- dications should he a success. A most thorough and intel- ligent system of fire Fighting has been worked out. and with practice the brigade should be able to meet all emergencies. Leonard Hayward. chief, has worked hard, and deserve: the appreciation of the students. Material Some excellent material was turned in for this inane. and we regret that we cannot use it all. Just because your story or your poem il not printed does not mean that i! is not of high enough standard. Our space is limited, and we cannot use everything we should like to.

We expect to have some ab- aoiuteiy new pieces soon, which, it is rumored, are being faithfully practiced now. An entirely new musical organization is the Mandolin and Guitar Club. We were delighted with its performance in aesemhiy the other day. After they had respomied to an encore and received a second enthusiastic applause. Man- ager Harold Crowe stated that they would be glad to give us another selection. but they really hadn't the nerve to do it again. The famous Aii-Star Coloured Quartet entertained us most pleasantly one morning with a number of songs in negro dialect, The beat of these was a lullaby, which was rendereci in a touchingly beautiful manner. Following this quartet was another, in which Mr. Chan. Green, assisted by Gerald Counts. Leslie Lynn, and Harry Buffum. demon- strated the infinite possibilities of a tin whistle in the play- ing of Oh Where, Oh Where Han My Little Dog Gone. Judging by the ovation accorded these musicians. their genius was appreciated by the audience.

Do you remember Miss Lodwick's little Freshmen? They commenced their Sophomore year by holding a Hai- iowe'en party. The Ebeil Club house was decorated for the occasion with jack 0' lanterns and red apples suspended from the ceiling; in one corner a fortune-teiiing booth was fashioneni of com-ntnlks. and very startling forecasts of future happenings issued forth from it! mysterious depths. Pie and doughnuts were nerved to the guests. The Junior class had a paper party November twenty- third. The girls were veritable paper dolls in their costumes of crepe and tissue. The boys, too, :howeti much originality in their attire. A few were fearful lest they should be com- pelled to eat shredded paper on paper plates. but their alarms were of short duration. The post-graduateu were entertained informally at the home of Grace Torrey early in October. There are only three boys in the P. G. clan, and they lead a strenuous ex- istence, you may be lure. The Partia club. the members of which are the Junior and Senior girls. is holding very interesting sessions. Carrie Smith, the president, has organized the sections on the same basis as last year. The music section presented the life and works of Schubert at our First meeting; the dramatic section gave an afternoon of readings; Miss Graydon, sec- retary of the Associated Charities. delivered a splendid ad- dress upon the many phases of social service and explained how the club girls can plan and execute ancial service in Ichuul life. Celtic and Irish literature is the theme of the Twen ty-nin e CAERULEA literary section's study. This gives you an idea of the scope of work the club is doing. The students are not the only one: who have good times. The majority'ethe women members of the fa- cultymmeet once a month for a really good time, and from their knowing expressions 1 surmise they have heaps of fun. Of course you remember what excellent assemblies we have always had in school; this year we have kept up the standard. The football rallies have been very enthusiastic and have been a great factor toward centering our interests on the gridiron. The Caerulea had charge of a moat en- joyable assembly. Harold Crow: announced that he had been fortunate in securing the famous Venetian quartette for the occasion. Great was our expectation. but greater our Bulprise when four High School musicians appeared attired in true Venetian garb. and rendered an astounding instru- menta that old classic, Oh Where, Oh Where. Has My Little Dog Gone? They were compelled to repeat the performance. This in not all. but gives you a sample of the ingenuity of the students. Oh, I must tell you about the post-holes. The Bond of Education granted the Student Body permission and lum- ber to build a fence arounri the Campus. if the students would furnish the labor. Volunteer service proved very diH-lcult to secure, so the Seniors challenged the Faculty to a .conteat. The eventful day arrived, the teams appeared armed with crowbars and shovels: amidst clouds of dust one could see the set faces of our worthy pedagoguea, determin- ed to prove to the world that skilled labor is more proficient than plebeian labor. The Seniors claim the victory by two poet holes. The juniors then challenged the Sophomores. This. too. was an exciting contest. the Sophomores coming out winneruy The fence will stand as a lasting memorial to those youths who no manfully labored in its erection. However. all virtue has it: reward; the girls of each class prepared sumptuous spreads for their champions. Jolly affairs they were and compensated for all muscular atiffneu. Do you not agree with me in thinking we have the greatest times in Long Beach High School? Yours. as ever. TEDDY. Thirty Debate Debate thruout the school has languished up to the present time and with the exception of interacholaatic cir- CIea little progress has been made along uratorical lines. The causes for the decline have been various. but the great reason seems to have been lack of a suitable time of meet ing. for since the abandonment of the society hour. an in- nOVaticn of last year, the several societies have declined both in numbers and in interest. Plans are now being made. however. for a new system of society meetings. which. it is hoped. win prove a success, as something must be done to Preaerve the interest and life of the various societies. Interscholastic debate, however, looks forward to a promising year. if one may judge by the :eault of the try outs, which show a stiff struggle with the victorious four leading by a scant margin. the very closeness of which testi- fies to the excellence of the team. As to the members themselves, Hugh Shippey, with hrst place in the try-outs and hit last year's debating expat, ienee, is rightfully accorded hrst place. but a choice as to the other places i8 pxaclically impossible. Miss Krnus has gained the distinction of making the team in her Sophomore yearea thing almost unprecedented in our annais. With her forceful delivery and Flowing xiiction. she cannot help to gain the expected championahip in the ensuing year. The other two members of the team. Mr. Carrol and Mr. Mc- Clintock, form a pleasing contract in their style; Mr. Carrol possesses a soft. modulated, even delivery which is both Pleasing and effective. while Mn McClintock stands for the opposite oratorical style; he has strong. forceful delivery and clinches his arguments with sledge hammer blows. Great honor is due at this point to the efficient coaching of Miss Lodwick, thru whose efforts the speeches of the de- batera are now rounding into shape. We are indeed fortun- ate in ponlensing one whose ability admits of such efhcient coaching and to whom credit must be given for the coming victory. Still, however. it is well that we are a non-supentitinus school, or else we might entertain serioua doubts as to our First debate, for it is scheduled for Friday. the l3th day of December. Santa Barbara is destined to he the sacrifice to Thi ny -one CAERULEA our triumph in the coming simultaneous controversy, and it is hoped that they will accept their defeat with as good grace as the victims of former years have done. The affirmative is to be upheld at home by Messrs. McClintock and Carrol. while Mina Kraus and Mr. Shippey will defend the negative at Santa Barbara. The subject, Relolved. that in all Am- erican municipalities the water. light and transportation lys- tems should be owned by the people of the municipality, promises a highly interesting discussion. and one from which great value may he received. it is to be hoped that the cler haters will receive the support that is due to them in the comma ing contest, as their work extend: over a period of over two months and consists of hard research and selection work. not to speak of the preparation of the speech. So here's good luck to the team and the school and may Wkthw themu-lay added laurel: at the feet of our Alma Mater. Home of Representatives Officers: Speaker. Hal Carrol. Vice-speaker. Dwight McFadyen. Clerk. Ernest Geddea. Assistant cierk, Edward Gibbs. Seargent-at-arms. Bruce Watt. Doorkeeper. Ed Pawaon. Chaplain. Charles Green. Owing to the continued dithculty of procuring a quorum. the House has accompliahed but little up to the present time. But the officers of the House should not be blamed for this comatose condition. for unavoidable circuma Itances have been greatly to blame for the decline. Still. several important measures have been considered and ex- ceedingly interesting discussions have been forthcoming, chief of these being that regarding the candidacy of ex President Roosevelt, during which feeling ran so high that order was preserved with dilhculty. At the present time there is a strong feeling among the members in favor of meeting at night, and it is thought that this request will be granted. as it would undoubtedly be for the betterment of the House. 50. decided developments for the better are awaited from the House, for it is a splendid organization and one which is destined to he an honor to the school as well an to itself.

We had no more than arrived at the Stanford Farm than we were treated to that excruciatingly pleasant exper- ience known a: the water cure. NOW. I am no student of psychology, but I do know this. that there is nothing in the category of humiliating in- fluence: more effective than the simultaneous application of water externally and internally in unlimited quantities. The system employed up here by cruel upper clalsmen as a means of subjugating freshmen is known on the campus as tubbing, and believe me. when 1 say that they have it down to a thoroughly scientific basis.

When the 7 o'cloek whistles blew. we heard cheers and screams from the Holmes HE P013 and ran out to find that the Sopha had rushed in man up the pole before the Freshman guard could climb it.

Thirty-six Exehamgeg it seems that the various exchange editors have differ- ent views concerning their department. They can be di- Vided into three classes. The first class believes it their duty to tell the other exchanges what departments they have 1th out of their papers; the second class informs the editors that they have too few poem! or joshel, or that their depart- mente are not evenly proportioned, and sweeten: their criticism with a compliment: the third class believes in Praising that which is good. and in criti 'sing only such things as might be helped by the criticism. Does the first class really accomplish anything? They hastily glance over a magazine. see that it has no exchange or music department. and immediately criticise the paper on that score. Are they in a position to criticise? The staff of that paper is able to judge whether that department could be made a success in their school or not. If a department is lacking in a paper. it is not through oversight. but because it was thought good judgment to leave it out. Then what is the use of telling a paper they have not Enough joshes. Don't you imagine the josh editor did his best to get jokes? And if they haven't as many poems as they should have. it is beeauee they couldn't get them. for Poems canit iuat be picked up. But some may say. what is the use of giving namplia ments. In answer. did you ever look through the exchanges and find some compliment upon your own paper? Didn't you feel just a little friendlier towards that school? To make it personal. would you be apt to become a close Friend with a person. who when a stranger made harsh criticisms upon your attire 0: character? Criticism is a task which is usually left to relatives or very close friends, and even then it is sometimes not very successful.

I perceive by The Parable of the Cakes, Sophod Thirty-neven CAERULEA more Sagacity. and Curls that you are a school which enjoys pranks. You mentioned in the report on The Long Beach Debate. that the excitement was the greatest ever shown. Enthusiasm also ran high at Long Beach. The Basket Ball team had told of the wonderful ability of the Livernash boys, and when it was found that one of the de- baters was a Livemash, Long Beach High felt that it was up to her to do her best. nThe Acropolia, Whittier College, California. You have a witty piece of work in the Parable of the Picnic. Poems and stories modeled upon familiar works are always popular.

It was felt necessary to devise some plan whereby the intense party feeling attending Student Body elections might be prevented. Consequently, the present constitution was drawn up and adopted The new syatem has certainly eliminated party feeling, and the concern of the stmients at present is to know how well the machinery is working; The following reports. from those who are intimately acquainted with the workings of the gov- ernment; will serve to indicate the degree of success of our new constitution. Commissioner of Literary Activitiel Commission government can he a success, or it can be a failure. Mr. Crowe. in his department of Literary Activi- ties, and in his capacity as a member of the legislative body, has helped make it a success. His appointments show thorough consideration. and all have been ratified by the Commission. His attitude on all question: has only been de- termined by careful thought. and we feel that he is acting from the dictates of his own conscience. Then. most of all. he realizes that every department is important. and in helping to make each succeed Commi ioner of Athletic: There is one Commissioner of whom we,the students of Long Beach High School. are justly proud. It is the Come miasioner of Athletics. Mr. Shippey showed his executive ability right at the start. and is still showing it. One of the things. which marks his progressiveneu talthough he is a Democratl is the agitating and the carrying through of the building of the athletic fence. We expect Hugh to he an expert postdhole digger. as well as an executive. before he completes his fence. New student. if you have not as yet gotten acquainted with UThe Honorable, do so at once. Commissioner of Public Welfare and Safety The new government of our school is intended for the Welfare of the students. and in coneideration of this end. a department of Public Welfare and Safety has been estab- lished, Mr. Way Middough, the Department Commis' aioner. with the aid of his efficient managers. is making this Tllilly-nine CAERULEA branch of school life very successful. The money saved in buying books through the book exchange, and the articles returned to their owner! by the lost and found department, are proofs of success. No less important are the Fire De- partment and the Building and Grounds Committee, which insure safety. and keep our buildings and ground attractive. It can truly be said that this department, though a new one, has fulfilled our highest expectations. Commheinner of Entertlinment Has our new form of government succeeded? At least Miss Dayman has done her part to make it successful. At the very beginning of echool she was busy managing the Department of Entertainment. and she has been busy ever since. Everyone must admit that our assemblies, which she has managed, have been the best possible. We cannot yet nay whether our Commission Govemmcnt has succeeded or not. but we can say that Miss Dayman has more than made her department a success. Commislioner of Finance Students of Long Beach High Sahool. you have shown wisdom. Your choice of the man who now hold! the posir tion of Commissioner of Finance, has proven the best you could pussihly have made. Arthur Wilcox has accomplished one of the most difficult pieces of work done in the school this year. in the making of a school budget. He has also gone to great trouble that we might have receipts in card fem which would mean real value to the members of the Student Body. Art Wilcox, the star football player. and the star baseball player. is now playing a star game as an honest and trustworthy guardian of the funds of the Student Body. F0 rly Athleties Girlsl Basketballl Long Beach High has been famous for her Cirlsi Basket ball teams since the year of '04, when the first team became the terror of the state. Last year its fame was somewhat lessened, owing to the fact that the state championship was lost. But with the large amount of material which is Ollt this year, and the enthusiastic coach, Miss Ludwick. it is Expected that our former reputation in this activity Will be regained. The girls are being well coached by Miss Lodwick and are working hard to reward her efforts and to regain the championship which we held for so long. 5i :F 3 1893739 Bmlkeithall Boys' Basketball started early this year, and every night after school three teams can be seen hard at work under the supervision of Coach Russell. Last year our team won the county championship, and this year the boys are going out for the championship of Southern California. Way Middough is the only member of last year's team that is back, but there are several boy: of last year's second team who are thoroughly capable of Hlling the vacant positions. Some new material has also been discovered which i: very promising. Aiken. who is a new man, will prove a valuable addi- tion to the team. He plays a very strong and swift game- Middough is better than ever and will play his regular position at guard. McCormick, who was the star forward of last year'l second team. will have no trouble in holding that position on the lira! team this year. King. who played center for the second team last year. is playing his usual fast and snappy game. Campbell is out for guard this year. He is an excel- lenl player and a hard man to beat. Farty-ane CAERULEA Wilber is another new man who is making good at the game. R. lredcll is playing a fast. cunaistent and heady game this year and bids fair to make a demon at the game. BBCk. Brunn. Nedro. Dunlap and H. lredell are other men who are making a good showing. The future is especially bright this year and everything points to a championship for Long Beach High School. Basketball was well supported last year and we hope it will be as well supported this year. II II- 05 Track The outlook for track this year is exceptionally bright. Great thing: are expected from the team, with Cullen in as manager. and Snow as captain. both men having been on last year's team and thoroughly acquainted with track Work. Snow and Ohl. were on our famous relay team last year and expect to get up a team as good if not better for this yeah . The iirat track event 6f the season will be our annual indoor Track Carnival. held in the Auditorium. Great in. terest and enthusiasm has been shown this in the past years, and we expect to start the aeapon 05 right by making this a great success. Last year we pulled OK the County Championship. and with everybody's co-operation and sup: port. we will do it again this year. e di- 'F Baseball The baseball prospects are very bright again this year. Last year the Long Beach team contented in fourteen game: without a single defeat. winning the Los Angeles County League pennant and the Southern California Championship. With the exception of three, last year's players are all back again. Craig will be the star performer in the box. and Captain Rally Bones will again hold clown the first tack. Gilbert Akin. who played third two years ago. is back this year and will greatly strengthen the infield. The High SChODl League. which was originated by Coach Gastrich this fall, is progressing well. Much interest is being shown. and good material in eute to be developed. erty-two CAERULEA Faetballll COACH ELLIOT! Our popuiar and successiul coach, Mr. Elliott. received his footballi as well as scientiHc education at Chicago Uni- versity. Coach Stagg of that school is regarded as the best informed athletic instructor in the West. and he has devele oped more successful coaches than any other instructor. Coach Elliott played at taCkIe position on the team that won the Western Championship in 1905. He was graduateci in I909. and went to New Philadelphia, Ohio, where he taught and coached the football team. putting out a team that was not defeated by anything 1n its class. He went from there to East High. in Cleveland. Ohio. teaching Chemistry. and having charge of all athletic activi- ties. His football team won the championship of the City League; baseball was second. and the basket ball team won its championship. Mr. Elliott was then employed by a large chemical concern. as research chemist. which position he held for a year. coming to Long Beach to take up teaching again and to give 11- a championship team. As a coach. there may be something lacking an to perfection. but if so, it has not been discovered. He has developed a team that is in the game all the time, has utilized his material to the best advantage. and has always advo- cated clean playing, demonstrating the fact that clean, scien- tific playing will win out. As a man. he is admired and loved by the hays under him. He is 'one of the hoya' at all times. It is the wish and hope. of the entire Student Body that he may remain with us in the years to come. Howard Cleveiand. -F 55 $ THE TEAM With the opening of the football aealon, about four full teams turned out for practice. and to try for a place on either the first or second squad. Thin was good evidence of the spirit in the school. and of the spirit that the team would have. The coach was an unknown quantity, anci the new ma- terial not particularly promising. but the hope was great and everyone was imbued with the idea that The Team would he Furtyvthree CAE RULEA the greatest ever and would be able to bring Long Beach her First football championship. The team has worked hard under a hard taskmaater. and has been very lucky in not losing many good players on account of injury. As a teame the fellows form as fine an aggregation as can ordinarily be turned out by a High School of the size of Long Beach Poly. They have the grit, the speed, the ag- gressiveness, and the heart. The one thing that will show the 'heart' in a man is when he is battling against apparently overwhelming odds, and sticks it out to the and regardless. The lnever say die' spirit has been evident in the team's work throughout the whole eeaaon. When a team has been beaten back to the very last line of its defenses. this being accomplished in such a short time as to bewilder the ma- jority of teams. the opponents having four opportunities to go forward one small yard. and with a mountain, apparently, to throw at that trail looking line, with two minutes to play --when a team is in that position. and then settles clown and beats back that terrible attack time and again, it demon strates that they have heart. and also that they are Men, for if there was ever a yellow streak in a man. it would show in a time like that. Such has been the spirit diipleyed in the work of the team. A team must pull together or it is not a team, merely a bunch of individuals. The team has pulled together. both in the game and out; they have conhdence in the coach and in each other. but their great distinguishing mark as a team has been their confidence in their ability to overcome all obstacles and take the metal : of anything Opposing them. The line has withstood all attacks and has been a strong factor in the work of the team. The men are always in the game, have prevented many gain: through them and have been a terror to other teams. The backfield has been fast and backed up the line in great style. The new rules have been interpreted and used to the best advantage. mak- ing an interesting game from the viewpoint of the spectator. In the season's work they have been outclassed in but one department, that of interference, and they have more than made up for that by their aggressiveness and headwork, It has been said that a chain is only as strong as its weakest link; therefore the team has no weak link. Long Beach High may be justly proud of the team of l9l2 as it Forty-four TIED CHAMPIONSHIP 19l2 FOOTBALL . . . CAERULEA goes out into the world. and may safely feel that each indi- vidual will be a credit to his Alma Mater. Howard Cleveland. C- 4: $ LEAGUE SERIES Whittier, October 12th. This was the fuel League game. and Long Beach out- classed Whittier in every line of play. In the first quarter. by heavy line plunging. our fellows carried the ball to Whit- tier's 18-yard line, where a kick from placement was missed. Whittier put the hall in scrimmage on her 20ayard line, and by a little fast playing advanced to the center of the Field. where she was forced to kick. We again advanced the ball to he: 30eyard line. when time was called for the first quar- ter. Early in the second quarter Wilcox went over for a touchdown, anti Pete kicked goal. The first half ended. 7 to 0A In the next quarter Marshall carried the ball around tackle for the second touchdown. Barton kicked out and Wilcox kicked goal. making the score. 14 to 0. Shortly afterward, Whittier scoreti on a perfect forward pass over goal line. Hood kicked goal. thus raising their end of the score to 7. The last quarter was fast, but neither team scored. And so our race for the pennant was begun to the tune of '4 to 7. :5 AG t5 Smt- Monica, October 19. In our second League game we scored another victory in our fight for the championship. Captain Pete was out of the game with an injured arm, and the team wal genereled by Leslie Wark. who played a wonderful game. Hi3 sen- sational run from kick-oE has never even been approached since the famous jones-Long run of two years ago, and even that could not equal it. For 80 yards the gritty Iittle I30- pounder tore down a broken field. finally bringing up on Santa Monica's ioayard line. But Wark was not the only star in this run, for Walker put up a splendid interference for him. The whole team was in good condition and our line was invincible. Every man fought so hard that Santa Montica'a line bucks were fruitless. The back Field could always be relied upon for substantial gains. and went over the line for three touchdowns. The final score was 26 to 0. Furty-Ieven CAERULEA Chaffee Union, October 26. On October 26. a special train went to Ontario. carry- ing two hundred Green and Cold rootera. The team was treated royally by Chaffee Union who gave them a feed immediately upon their arrival. In the afternoon they met one of the strongest contender! for the championship. and came out of the struggle with the big end of 3 ID to 0 score. During the First five minutes of the game Forge carried the ball ten yards through center: Art made eight around tackle. and then Forge made a dive over center for a touchdown. Iveraon toed the ball between the posts for a goal. From then on, the game was nip and luck. The ball eeesawed back and forth. Chaffee playing a kicking game. In the last quarter Pete tried a difficult place kick with success. raising the score to ID. It was a good. hard-foughl game. and the team's success was well earned, l 3 -i Santa Ana, November 2. Some game? Well. I should say so. For real sensa- tional thrills. the Santa Ana game can't be beaten. Both teams were in fine condition and perfect working order; For three quarters they bucked and plunged to no avail. Neither team could cross the other'a goal line. The Feature: of this part of the game were the wonderful line plunging of Barker, Santa Ana's 2I2vpound fullback. and two long for- ward passes successfully executed by Long Beach. one caught by Wilcox. the other by Walker. 1n the last ten minutes Santa Ana was forced to kick from her ten-yarcl line. The kick was blacked by one of her own men, and Hayward, Long Beach's speedy littie end. grabbed the bail and carried it over the line. 6 to 0! Santa Ana kicked off and forced Long Beach to punt; Then she began a series of line bucks that tore through the Long Beach line as though it were paper. With wonderful rapidity she ad- vanced down the field to Long Beach's one-yard line. Three feet to go and four down: to do it in! Surely. Long Beach could never rally in such a poaition. The quarter snapped the ball to the fullback. who started on another of his tear ing line plunges. But what was that he encountered? There was a stone wall there. and its colors were green and gold. The ball advanced not an inch. for Long Beach had rallied! But could she hold them For three more downs? Again the fullback tore into the line, and again he failed to gain. The third time the green and gold stone wall was not content to Forty-eight CAERULEA lamain stationary. but moved forward. and actually forced those ZIZ pounds of squirming. fighting red sweater five yards back of where they had started from.

When a shrill whistle sounded. and the rootem swarmEd over the Held. yelling madly, and pounding each other on the back, For the game was over, and Long Beach had won! at a: an Elcondido, November 9. Escondido outweighed Long Beach five or six pounds to the man. but was deficient in team work. Long Beaah was not in good condition. partly due to the four hour's trip. She was also uver-conhclent. or the score would prob- ably have been much larger. The final result Was 24 to 0 in favor of Long Beach. .1; 1:. at San Dingo, November 16. In a head fought battle with the team from the south. Long Beach was again victorious by a score of 2' to I3. It was a big surprise when by a series of forward passes, San Diego carried the ball over for a touchdown in the First five minutes of play, After this Long Beach fought hard. and soon had turned the trick by sending a touchdown over San Diego's goat line. Before the game had ended they repeated this twice, Iverson kicking the goal every time. In the last quarter San Diego again scored. on a Fluke, The line was strong and the back field fast indicating that the team would be in good condition to meet Pasatiena in the championship game on Thanlisgiving. a: as Pasadena, November 28. In one of the hardest fought battles of the year Pasa- dena defeated Long Beach by a score of I4 to 9. At the end of the Brat half the count was 9 t0 0. in favor of Long Beach. Barton maging a touchdown and Iverson kicking a Held goal. Pasadena tightened up in the second half. how- ever, and by means of her superb interference. crossed our goal line twice. Although we have not won the champion- ship, we have tied for it. and we know that every game has been won by fair play. Any school might well be proud of being repreesnted by such a clean, gritty team as has this year played under the green and gold. Farty-nine CAERULEA THE LINEUP Lena, commonly called Pete. the captain. quarter- back. and chief mainstay of the team. His use of strategy and all 'round generalahip are largely responsible for the present fine record of the team. He is a hard worker. harder hitter. and the hardest man on the team to iay out. while his effective tackling and nevu die spirit make him a most valuable man on the team. Barton, captain of the line, play; right tackle. and re: Iemblea a stone wali in his solid, hard playing. Very aga gresaive on offensive and defensive work, one of our oldest hands at the game, and captain of last year's team; he is a man to he depended upon at all times. and very Few gains are made around his end of the line. Ridiick, our big man and therefore, center. Hi5 ac- curate passing and steady. careful playing have not made him a brilliant player. but. better still. have made him a man to be relied upon. He sizes up plays well on defense. and is right there with a big bunch of muscle and brawn when he is needed. Hayward, our aoiid little left end. is always Johnny on the spot. when needed. He is fast and heady, and by at- tending strictly to business, he alone saved two of our hard- est games. those with Ontario and Santa Ana. His fall of- fensive work when following up a punt and downing the man who receives it. makes him a very valuable man on the team. Oh! is rapidly developing into a firat-cinaa right end. He is good at catching passe; and although not a brilliant player. he has done fine work, and his steady, consistent. and heady playing has made him another man to be de- pended upon. Simpson, known as Simp or Fat. plays more eg- gressiveiy than ever at left guard thin yeal. He is solid as a rock, and as strong as an 03:. and i5 A150 right there on oEemiv: work. it is nSimp who is always picking a man up and atanciing him on his somewhat shaky feet after a hard fail, or who is pumping air into a fellow who got it in the wind. He is the jnilieat. most good-naturcd man on the team, and he in right there with the goods, Bell, who plays right guard, is tremendously aggressive, He uses good judgment, and is a hard fighter clear through. Fifty CAERULEA During the first of the games he was apt to get sore. thus furnishing amusement for the rest of the bunch. but he is overcoming this trait, and is playing a Hue, dependable game. Walker, manager, is new at right end, and is somewhat weak on defense, but makes it up on forward pasaeat He is wide awake and alive. and has held many interesting and enthusiastic assemblies to boost football. Deems, our left tackle. in a new man, but he soon made himself known. and went into the game with such vigor and vim that he now holds dawn the position of left tackle so well that the opposing backs rarely reach their own iine. He is a hard charging tackle. with a good eye and good iudgment. Marlhall, our spIendid fullback. is great on forward passes, and il largely responsible for two of the important touchdowns so far. His line bucking was magnificent in the Ontario gamc. and he made splendid gains and played a brilliant game at Santa. Ana. He is built for heavy duty. and certainly surpasses all requirements. Wilcox is one of the headiest and most modest players imaginable. When holding down his position of right half he is absolutely to be depended upon, and his interference on bucks is superb. He carries the ball well. and plays in Fm: form and very eEectively. His dcfensive work is be- yoncI criticism. He has played brilliantly in all of the games. and when it comes to intercepting forward passes he is right there with good judgment, a quick eye. and quicker action. Iversnn is another new man. who has surprised every, body. including himseif. He has played a superb game at llaft half. He carries the ball well. fights to the Finish. and is very strong on end Iuns. He is our best punter, and has made good in every sense of the word. Snow, left tackle, plays with a strength and energy that are responsible for many good holes in oEsene. Being fast on his feet. he covers the ground well on punts. and enters into the team work in such a manner that he in a very vain Liable man. He plays a steady. consistent game, Wark, sub-quarter. run: the team well, and gives the fellows lots of confidence anci aggressiveness. With his ex- treme quickness and fast fool: work. he makea a parfect Held runner, Although a little light. he plays a Fine game, and during the Santa Monica battle distinguished himself by mak- ing an eighty-yard run. Fifty-nne CAERULEA Downs, in the position of left guard, has harrassed every quarter he has played against by breaking the line. and. being quick and agile, he in a good sub. Herrell, sub halfback. is the hardest man on the squad to tackle. Being new at the game. he has not had much opportunity to show what he could do. Willi-ms, who has been trying for right guard. is also new at the game. but he is good on offense. and with a little more experience will make a valuable mane Filwiler has asaumecl a big task in trying to make ieft end with Hayward on the job. but he has done good work. and in the Encondido game did exceptionally well. Hayward being out for repairs. Bill Marshall had hard luck this year, being laid out in the practice game with Occidental College. His prospects in football were very bright for this year. and the entire school sympathize! with him in his misfortune. a: :1. ar- SECOND TEAM. On account of the enthusiasm for football this year a First class second team was organized which has given the first team many a hard practice scrimmage. and has made an excellent showing in the games played with outsiders. Their first game was with Venice Polytechnic at Venice. October '9. Long Beach's superior team work told heaVr ily on Venice. and the result was a 26 to 0 victory for the green and gold. The second game, played against Santa Ana's second team at Santa Ann, was a curtain-raiaer for the big first team game. Santa Ana won on a Huke by a score of 6 to 0. The brilliant iine plunging of Jim Geddes. fullback. was the chief feature of the game. It was evident that Long Beach hnd much the superior team, and a challenge was isaued for a return game. This challenge was accepted. and the two team: cianhed again. on the home field, the next Saturday. Long Beach vindicated her claims to superiority by winning from Santa Ana by a score of 14 to 3. The chief feature of the game was Wilcax's long run for a touchdown. Coach Russell has had charge of the second team. and has turned out a fine squad. The players are all fast. heawy. and understand the game thoroughly. and with a little more- eXperience will make valuable material for next year's first team.
