Ethyl VVade '23 it CAERULBKZ5 A DECADE OF PROGRESS Jeanette Willcuts '23 Rome was not built in a day. Nor was Poly high, with its 3800 students and its many buildings, constructed over night. Yet a little over a decade has marked the progress of the school from noth- ing to the present state. In lllarch, 1910, S240,000 in bonds was voted, with 358,000 of which a fifteen-acre site on Atlantic Avenue was purchased. The original Polytechnic High School, consisting of the Central, Science, and Nlanual Arts buildings, was completed in September, 1911. During 1912 the cafeteria, the O. D. study hall, the lunch room and the girls, gymnasium were added. Later still, a small bungalow was built for use as a classroom. For a time it was used as an R. O. T. C. arsenal, then for the art classes, for an annex to the girls' gym, and finally as a tool-house. Originally the Central building was used for the academic and commercial departments, the Science building for natural science, home decoration, and art, and the Manual Arts for the metal work and pottery of the art department, and for the mechanical classes. A little later the entire art department was moved to the lllanual Arts building. The Liberal Arts building, for English, history, art, music, and study hall, was built in the year, 1920-21, with the money from a bond issue voted in October, 1919. 6B435,000 in bonds was voted in June, 1921, for high school use. Last September, the Practical Arts, for commercial, home economics, and study hall classes, a new T671 CABRULEK25 girls' gy1n, a swimming pool, with a laundry and heating plant in the same building, and a new boys' gym containing R. O. T. C. head- quarters and a band and orchestra room were opened. During the summer the former girls' gym was made into quarters for the print shop, the student body store and store-room, and High Life oflice. The old student body store was remodeled for a cafeteria office, the old hand-out was made into thc student dining room, and the former student dining room into the faculty dining room. A soda fountain was installed in the store. Lots on the corner of Fifteenth Street and Atlantic Avenue were made into school tennis courts, while agricultural grounds were furnished by a recent purchase of land at Seventeenth and California. A new brick building, housing the general school sto1'e-room and rcpair shop, and a store-room made from the former boys' gym are on these lots also. Student body money financed many of the additions, namely, the bleachers, the equipment and soda fountain in the store, the grading and curbing of the track, and the tennis courts. The Administration building put on a , - new front that was in the style of the Liberal Arts and Practical Arts buildings, during the fall of 1922. The driveway was removed, new walks in front and a lawn and shrubbery, furnished by the student body, were put in. VVooden policemen, made in the wood work and a1't departments, guarded the new lawns. 1911-1200 students and three build- ings, 1923--3800 students and nine build- ings.

Eleven 'l'HE'II'lDOSSIBIfE'lf0I1EBAClC O, Joe, it's impossible for any horse to come back. Absolutelyeimpossiblef' - But a thoroughbred, a real thoroughbred, I mean. Charley, I know that a real horse, a horse with a heart, can come back. 'LYou5ll find you're wrong, Joe. Charley Bennet, owner of America's greatest racing stables l as well as of some of the world's finest and fastest horseiiesh, smiled patronizingly and shrugged his shoulders. A shake of the head as if he were firmly convinced that Bennet was wrong was Joefs only answer for the famous turfman's conclud- ing .state1nent. Then Joe seemed to slip into a deeply thoughtful mood. Bennet picked up one of the books that were so plentiful in his vast library and began to read. Joseph VVorral had been Joe's name when he had won temporary fame and fortune for himself and his two animals by winning racc after race ten yea1's before. He had maintained for two years an almost unbroken string of victories. Then his two horses started on the down grade. They wanted to run, but they had about spent the number of races that we1'e in them. VVOl'1'3l,S fortune was spent on laying bets on his horses, who now lost in practically every race. But Joe kept on with the hope of one last chance, of one of his thorough- breds taking a big stake. The chance, as usually happens, didn't come. Then Bert Foote, the older of Joels two horses, died. A bad heart caused by the strain of continual racing had caused the death of the great horse. Joe knew it and for a month he mourned the death of the animal, for a month he was actually sick over the thought that he had run his horse to death. Finally he came out of his worry,, counted his resources, and determined to get a job and settle down with his remaining horse, the Ace of Spades. Charley Bennet, hearing of this determination of Joe's, had hired him as general manager of the well known Bennet stables. VVhen- ever Bennet wanted advice he called on Joe to give it. The two were 711067116 bv aonmzzr is- cn Anz on the best of terms, as shown by the familiar address of Charley which VVorral employed towards his boss. That morning Bennet had called J oe into his library to give hi111 instructions concerning the coming Grand Sweepstakes. As usual after Joe had received his orders the two 111en began a conversation on the racing game in general and finally ended up at their favorite topic of whether a horse could come back after a mnnber of years off the track. Bennet generally won the argument and J oe went into a deeply thoughtful mood, but this morning Joe was thinking more deeply than had been his habit. In his mind he reviewed all his past life and experience on the track, how worry had 111ade l1i1n old before his time, how Bert Foot had died from over effort, and how he and the Ace of Spades had quit the turf together, and how they had both kept in good physical condition through their time of inaction. Suddenly VVorral came out of his reverie and jumped up so violently as to startle Bennet out of his reading. I have it, Charley. A real thoroughbred can come back. Illl prove it to you. The Ace of Spades is coming back. The Ace is too old, Joe. And besides who will ride for you?,, asked Charley in a manner which showed that he thoughtnhis stable manager was joking. ' ' UNO, Charley, I mean it. The Ace is old, fourteen years, but he has a young heartf' uVVho will ride for you ?'l Bennet repeated his question. ' '4Nobody,ll ride for mef' snapped back Joe, angry at Bennetas rather bantering tone. 'Tll ride for myself. No one'll want to ride the Ace, because they think he's too old and broken to have a chance. But I'm not too old to ride 'im again myself. VVe'll show 'em all. Old Ace of Spades can come back and so can Old Joe VVorral. 'fDon't you laugh, Charley, I mean it. We'll show you. Don't you worry,', and Joe angrily stalked out of the presence of his employer, who immediately went into a spasm of laughter over his friendls defiant attitude. All day Charley Bennet smiled over what Thirteen ...MH CABR,ULEA'Z5 he considered the excellent joke of Joe and the Ace of Spades coming back. But Bennet began to take the joke more se1'iously when he received a letter the next 1no1'ning addressed in Joe's cramped but legible hand. The letter read: lNIy dear lNIr. Bennet-- A Will you please grant me a three weeks, leave of absence or else I can quit for good if you desire it. I ani going to enter Ace of Spades in Grand Sweepstakes. I do 11ot want to do that and have management of your entries also. lNIy assistant Thoren is an excellent man with horses. Respectfully yours, J. Wo1'ral 4'And only two weeks to the Grand Sweepstakes, and Joe about the only man who can carry my colors to a winf' muttered Bennet after reading the note. But I canlt refuse hi1n,', he said aloud, he has done too much good work for me. Besides it will prove to hiin the impossibility of a comeback for either the Ace of Spades as a racing horse or Joe VVorral as a jockey. Yet Bennet admired Joe's attempt at a return to active participation on the track. He dis- patched a 11ote to Wo1'1'al who was overjoyed at its message. J oe: You are hereby given three weeks' vacation. Good luck to you. If you need any cash say so. lNIonth's advance salary is enclosed. - Your friend, Charles Bennet That advance in salary looked good to J oe. It afforded him the wherewithal to reach Albany and the CI1t1'y fee for the Grand Sweep- stakes there. His own savings would support him and his horse until he returned to his old job, and also leave him a couple of hundred to put on the Ace of Spades. Fourteen CABRULBA' I5 I ought to get good odds, he thought. But it wasn't the money that he cared about. All he wanted was to show the world that the Ace of Spades could return triumphant to the racing game. Any betting that he would do would be from habit and from the superstition that an honest man should always put down a bet on his own horse. . By the next morning Joe had found quarters for himself and his stallion in the city of' Albany and had officially entered Ace of Spades in the Grand Sweepstakes. The same evening he started the former champion upon two weeks of intensive t1'aining. The Ace was one of the finest horses that had ever graced the American turf, and ten years off the track had not lessened the appearance of' a tho1'oughbred. Joe had been a kindly master but he had kept the Ace always in condition by short trots on the private Bennet track. Joe loved his horse as much as it is possible for a man to love an animal, and there is no question about it that his horse displayed a dog-like affection for Joe. Black as the ace of spades and almost a hand higher than the average race horse, VVorral's a11in1al would be given a high place by any judge of horse-flesh. Every morning Joe rode the Ace slowly around one of the private tracks which were open to him. Then he would put the horse up to his full speed for short di.stances, hardly ever going more than a third of the way around at top speed. The Ace warmed up to the work and Joe had difiiculty in checking the horse only part way around the race track. He believed that it would be best to conserve the animalis energy for the mile-and-a-quarter Sweepstake event. New fire and go seemed to flow in the veins of the former champion. He realized that he would run again against a great field. To Joe, who seemed to have a language with which he conversed with his horse, the old King of the Turf apparently said, VVe,re coming back. We're going to make good. VVe're going to winf' Joe was elated over the prospects, but he tried to keep his identity and place of training secret, for he did not wish that pest and despoiler of' the 1'acing game, the race track tout, to see what his horse could Fifteen CAI-'jR,ULBA'ZZ do in practice. His efforts at secrecy could not be kept up however, and he was found, and sought out by the newspaper sport writers. Then Joe and the Ace of Spades obtained that publicity which they had not even dreamed of for ten years. Newspapers printed long stories of Worralls former exploits on the track, of the Ace,s rise to a championship and of his fall, and of the new attempt of both horse and rider to stage a comeback. Long columns of dope and discussion on fornier attempts at comebacks and how they had failed were featured in SOIIIC papers, while others ran cartoons of old J oe as Father Time riding a steed which was a skeleton. Some papers dug out pictures of Joe and the Ace in their heyday and ran them as a feature of the sport page. But Joe only smiled grimly at all this publicity and went ahead with conditioning the Ace. He tried as much as possible to hold all his practice runs privately, but no matter at what hour of the day he came on the track there were always so111e there to watch him. The railbirds were surprised at the short time in which the Ace was clocked over short distances, but they smiled knowingly and said to each other, f'He'll never stand one and a quarter. The day before the Sweepstakes Joe paced his horse on the Albany track where the big races were to be run. Slowly at first and then faster and faster as he neared the end Joe sent the Ace in the final practice. He was satisfied. He knew that the Ace of Spades was sure of the track and would make a creditable showing on the following afternoon. That night he saw Bennet. Charley had ente1'ed three of his finest horses in the race and was looking fo1'ward to it expectantly. He greeted Joe with a smile and asked if he still thought the Ace could come back. I know he can, answe1'ed Joe. The morning of the day of the Grand Sweepstakes Joe trotted tl1e Ace around the track so that he was certain of the horse's know- ing the condition of the oval. He then proceeded to obtain a bet upon the chances of the Ace of Spades. The large amount of space that Sixteen , C ERULEA' 5 the newspapers had devoted to setting forth the impossibility of a comeback for the great old horse caused many bettors to offer long odds. Fifty-to-one was offered at first, but when it was found that such great horses as Liza D., lifloneygetter, and ltlahomet were entered, the odds climbed steadily to a hundred-to-one. Joe laid two hundred dollars at these odds for Ace of Spades to win. It was the last money he had. If he lost he would have to borrow money to get back to the Bennet headquarters. The Grand Sweepstakes had attracted an enormous crowd from all over the country. The spectators, fully acquainted with the facts through the p1'ess, waited as expectantly to see the Ace of Spades run again as they did to see the Grand Sweepstakes itself. The crowd was there not only to see the champions of the present but one of the greatest champions of the past. A great cheer went up as a card bearing the name 'tAce of Spades-VVorral up', was .slid into the an- nouncing board. A greater cheer Went out when the word was passed around like lightning, That's VVorral and the Ace. Out there. Number seve11. All in redf, VVorral had been assigned the number seven, and had chosen the one color, bright red, as his privilege to display. The red made a brilliant and effective combination with the shiny black color of the Ace. In drawing for position at the barrier J oe drew the worst of the lot, an outside position. The inside position next to the fence was held by Honest George, the best horse in the Bennet stables as well as a winner in several of the season's big events. The inside is the' choice position as there is less distance to cover, while the outside is the most diflicult as the horse in that position has to cut in front: of the whole field to reach the fence. A run around the outside with a chance to win would be impossible as there is more than a quarter distance extra in taking the outside. And the Ace of Spades held the outside position. The Ace of Spades, who was old and making a heroic attempt at coming back, held the worst position of the field. Joe said not a word at his getting the outside but immediately took up his position at the barrier. He talked to the Ace, seemingly Seventeen as s a s a aa s C ERULEA' 5 M a a s a M giving him advice and encouragement, for the Ace shook his head in apparent understanding. The Ace showed not a bit of nervousness at returning to the track. An experienced campaigner in his day, he had overcome that fault and in that respect he had an advantage over some of the younger animals who we1'e competing. He was not nervous, he was ready to go. It seemed good to him to be on the track again, and again to have his ma.ster, not a bit heavier than he was ten years ago, on his back. Ready,H called the starter. A nervous jockeying for position to start was the only answer. '6Ready,H was called again. The11 a few seconds and the starting gun was fired, and the barrier jerked up. The field had broken evenly and got away to a perfect start. They,re offf, came a mighty and t1'Cl11CIld01lS roar f1'OI11 the audience. The Ace, the Ace, look at the Ace,', c1'ied an excited fan. But his cry was useless, for everybody was already watching the Ace. Standing out above the field because of his height and with his colors easily distinguishable, the Ace of Spades was making an excellent showing. Joe VVorral, that veteran of the turf, had put. all his brain into getting the Ace out of the outside position. He had won many a race in his younger days by sprinting a horse on a quick cut-off for the fence instead of a less sharp cut-in. Accordingly he set the Ace off at a flying pace on as sharp a cut as the rules of the game allow. The other jockeys were amazed at the terrific pace that the old timer was setting. Their mounts were startled at this flying horse passing so diagonally in front of them. The spectators gasped at the speed of the Ace of Spades. A quarter mile and he had 11ot slackened. He was on the inside now with only three horses, Mahomet, Hone.st George, and ltloneygetter ahead, while Liza D. pressed close behind. A third of a mile and the Ace was passing ltfahomet. HA third of a milef, gasped one of the spectators, a fourteen year old horse can't keep that up much longer. Efglzteen CAERULEK25 But the Ace of Spades was no longer old. Young blood burnt in his veins again. At the half 111ile post he was on the Hank of ltloney- getter, who was running neck and neck with Honest George. Slowly he crept up, his pace never slackening. At the three-quarter post ltloneygetter found herself outclassed and fell back. Honest George led the great Ace of Spades by a neck. At the mile post Honest George still led by a neck, but he was under the whip. Joe had never used the whip on the Ace of Spades, encouraging him only with the kindest of words. The Ace ran because he loved to run. It flashed through Joefs 111ind that Honest George was Bennet's horse, that beating Honest George would be the most effective proof of the ability to come back. They were pounding into the stretch and the Ace felt a horse creeping up from behind. The fans recognized this horse as lwahomet. I told you .so,,' said some. The Ace was too old to keep up the pace. But the Ace was not too old at heart. He had swung into a gigantic stride to distance the horse which was worrying up behind him. He left ltlahomet a length behind. He was neck and neck with Honest George, whose jockey was applying the whip furiously. An eighth of a mile to go and Honest George was half a length behind. The Ace did not slacken his pace in the least. At a greater speed than when he had passed Honest George he came under the WVl1'6. He had won by a length and a half over the Bennet thoroughbred. Great ltloses, twenty thousand gone, and the fastest record on the Albany track brokenf, groaned the man with whom Joe had bet, as he snapped shut his .stop watch. VVhat,s the matter with the Ace? Look! VVhat,s the matter with lim? questioned the spectators of one another excitedly, as the noble animal began to act strangely. Something was radically wrong with the great horse. Joe had checked him as soon as possible after coming under the wire, but his experienced eye saw there was something wrong with his stallion. He turned and started for the judges' .stand in order to receive the purse and p1'esent the winning horse to the closer inspection of those men. Nfneteen C ERULI-f,A'Z5 He was in haste and eager to get off the field that 'he might give the Ace the needed attention as quickly as possible. The horse staggered and Joe dismounted, dete1'1nined to lead his animal to the stabfles. The prize money could wait for him to claim it. As Joe dismounted, the new champion of the year turned, whin- nied feebly, nuzzled his nose in his masteris hand, as if in search of sugar, then staggered and sank down. 'tAce, Acef' Joe said softly and he had tears in his eyes, what's wrong? You ran a great race, you made a new record, Ace? Gently, tenderly, he stroked the winner's neck. The beautiful animal looked at Joe knowingly, and seemed to say with its eyes, That was wonderful. That was what I wanted, to win another race, to come backf, The horse looked at Joe with that look of worship which is shown for a man only in the eyes of manis best animal friends, the horse and the dog. Then the animal shuddered, closed his eyes, sighed heavily. His eyes snapped open again and began to glaze. The Ace of Spades was dead. J oe VVorral, who had witnessed and taken part in many trage- dies during his life, threw himself down by his dead horse and wept. He knew that the great thoroughbred had broken its heart in its tremendous effort, and had died of an internal hemorrhage. He was too old a man with horses not to know that this was the cause of death. 'Tve murdered the Ace, I've killed the Ace, he kept repeating over and over, crying all the while. '6Come on, Joe, come with meg you're sickf, came the voice of a 111an who was shouldering through the crowd that had gathered to express its sympathy. It was Charley Bennet. 'gCome on Joe. He took VVorral gently by the arm. Joe let himself be led away. Apparently he did not care who was leading him or where he was going. Bennet took his employee to his own suite at the hotel, where he quieted him and succeeded in getting him to sleep. VVhen VVorral awoke it was dark and he had only a hazy idea Twenty CAERULEAY5 of his surroundings and how he had got there. The death of the Ace of Spades was the only thing that stood out clearly in his memory. He knew besides this that he still had the prize money coming to him, and that there was twenty thousand to collect from a bet. He didn't care what he did or when he did it. He d1'essed quickly and went to collect his bet. It was ten o'clock he saw by the timepiece in the hotel lobby. He was glad of that because he wouldn't have to wake anybody up at that hour. His 1112111 paid the bet easily enough and expressed his sympathy at the sad ending of the great race, at which Joe again started to weep but quickly got control over himself. VVorral did not know what to do with the money he had obtained, for he was sure that he could never again be happy knowing that he had Hkilled, murderedn his horse, the Ace of Spades. He wandered aimlessly about. He saw a train and got aboard, hoping that it would take him away f1'om Albany, and the Albany track. The next morning when Bennet entered the roo1n where he supposed Joe to be sleeping he was surprised to see the bed un- occupied. He found no note concerning his friendls departure. Such an ungrateful action f1'on1 a man who had always appreciated the smallest favo1's puzzled him. In a few days Bennet received the following letter under a Toronto, Canada, postmark: lNIy dear lNIr. Bennet: It was very kind of you to take me to your rooms that day and I thank you very much for it. You have proved that you were right and that a horse can't come back. It is so with men, too. I feel that I can never come back as a great riderg that is, I could not win with a medium horse through riding skill. The Ace of Spades won the race but he broke his heart in doing it. He didn't come back, but he killed himself, or I killed him. An ordinary horse wouldn't have won the race, but he wouldnlt have died either. I believe Twenty-one f C ER LEK25 with you now that a successful comeback is impossible. Enclosed is check for 320,000 which I won at a 100-1 bet. I could not use it, because the Ace I died in winning it. You will please divide it among what charities you believe are best. First take out amount of loss caused you by my quitting and breaking my contract as manager of your stables. I think about 355,000 makes it even that way. Also please collect the Sweepstakes purse for me and give it to charity. I cannot retire from the track with the thought that the Ace died in action and I was the cause of his death. I will ride until I die or get killed. I will not go by the name of VVorral, because if I do people will begin to talk to me about the Ace and I canlt stand that. So that you can keep track of me if you want, I will ride as Carl Henson. ' Respectfully yours as ever, J. VVorral Hllood old .Ioe,', mused Bennet, always thinking of othersf' Then he added determincdly, Every cent of the Ace's money goes to charity. From time to time Bennet read of races in which VVorral 1'ode under the name of Henson. Every account expressed amazement at the recklessness Henson showed always for himself, but the infinite pains with which he cared for his mounts. His carelessness of his personal safety made him a well known figure on VVestern tracks. 'Fearing some of the old timers would recognize him, he kept off the Eastern courses. Then one morning Charley Bennet read this in the racing notes: 'LCarl Henson, known as the VVe,st's most reckless jockey, was thrown from his horse yesterday on the Louisiana track and instantly killedf' Twenty-two ua ef Z X Q ge :J LDT 1X WS . 3, iQ -SQ' K 'QJQ 2 'N Le CAERUI,EA'Z5 FORM Roger VValterhouse '24 Y ' HAVE the bad habit of dropping off into reveries at odd Q25 .

Oi late, a most insolvable p1'oble1n has been presenting itself to my cogitations. It concerns my extremely round-shoxildered friend, the barber. lifllllld-Sl10llldC1'Cd116SS is a great asset to a person of his pro- fession, for it saves l1i1n from bending over-but how in the world! does he sit down! VVhen he eats, does he have a table that slants away from him I! No, because all of his food would slide off on to the floor, and he would starve to death. It is evident that he has a chair which slants away from the table. Ah-I wonder what that chair looks like. The more I study it, the more appalling the question becomes. At night, if he lies on his back, he is practically sitting up. This would be a handy attitude for a pe1'son who enjoys reading in bed, but for sleeping purposes, it would be most inconvenient. Conse- quently, he must lie on his side-but what if he should turn over during his sleep? His head would flop over the other edge and the law of gravity would offset his power of equilibrium. This apparently .simple problem is really most distressing. No sooner do I sit down than, as the spirit of Mr. Hyde would envelop Dr. Jekyll, this horrible enigma envelops ine. I am habitually falling into trances over this subject. Ofttimes I will soliloquize aloud and bring great embarrassment upon myself. I am becoming distracted, and if some kind-hearted person does not enlighten me upon this harassing subject, I foresee nothing but insanity.

After a --. ii second look he appeared interested. '4Uh boy!- She is cute, isnit she! VVe agree, Buddy, for l once. series' A . --' Buddy and John we1'e standing on the walk south of the Liberal Arts building. To stroll about the campus the latter part of the lunch period had become with tl1e1n as regular a habit as eating. Object they had none. It was too warm for gang fights on the front lawn, and long past the season of the noon period daily junior vs. senior battles. There was nothing to dog nothing even to talk about. A dull, deadening late spring day is a disease. The two boys had made the rounds once and found the entire school smothered in a sln'oud of perfect peace and content. They had discussed, cussed, and discussed again every matter of importance, a11d some of their teachers. It was here, however, that the excessive heat began seriously to affect their mentality. Outside this window they stood in open admiration of her, whom the reader must accept as the unanimous choice of the two boys and the writer as the heroine of this story. Through the open window drifted an assortment of groans and grammar and sweet voices and occasionally a piece of chalk or an eraser. One lonely wad of tightly rolled tinfoil whizzed aimlessly past 0116 of Buddy's ears, resulting in the retreat of both boys from the danger zone. Un the terrace north of the lNIain building they' settled down to talk and to adnlire the girl in the classroom. 'cThis is a case where distance makes my heart get sillyf' Buddy modestly admitted that this beautiful thought was not his own. but quoted from Shakespeare. 4'Do you know her, Buddy?n John asked. Boy, I'd be in Heaven if I did. She sure am cute, n'cst-cc pas? Twe nty-sfx L1 fl':1,iTfg'I?gB by DO +DE UIUI' Did you ever see a cuter glance than the one she gave nie when we first canie up? You,re right, Buddy. Iill take your word about that glance, but I can see for myself she's a wonder for looksf' ' Both boys had entered L. B. P. H. S. as new students at thc beginning of their senior year. A classroom acquaintanceship led to a noon period friendship. Other than this, they had nothing ini co111n1on. Buddy and John had always represented the two extremes, Budy was the ladies' inang John, the shrinking violet. John now found himself on foreign ground. He ab1'uptly dived for safety. Say, he began, '4what'd she assign for lilonday? Did she say weld have that exani lllonday or Tuesday? HI can't get sentiniental with you talking about French. Je n1'en ficheg who cares about that test anyway? Whistle once, John, and sce if she won't look over heref' VVhy not you? It's nothing in inypyoung life if that girl looks over here or not. John didn't sound very fierce about it. He was deterinined, however, to adnlit no further interest. Better not whistle, Buddy. You'd probably get the teacher, not the girl. I've got itg Iill toss this pebble in there. That wouldn't attract as much attention as whistlingf, t'Naw, cut it out. VVe don't want to get run out of here. This is good enough nowf, Buddy turned to John with a look of disgust. You're sure a rotten sport, John. Are you scared of girls or what? Why don't you conie to life? VVhy inan, inang if I had your car and half your chances thereld be nothing could hold ine down. Around the fellows you're all right, but you have to be a S1J01't to get anywhere with the wonienfi Buddy said things he didn't intend to have hurt as they generally ' rx - -Q I by his tactless reniarks. John choked down his anger, but Buddy had cut deep-deeper than John let him see. Sportsmanship was a religion with John. Twenty-seven CAERULEA25 4'It,s plain we each have our own ideas,', Jolm was speaking after a long pause, the .same will never suit us both. He arose a11d brushed the dust and grass from his R. U. T. C. unifor111. I'll be- right back, I'm going to chase over and get 1ny High Life, it's out this periodf' John returned reading the pape1'. He sat so that Buddy could read if he wished. Buddy, however, had caught the girl's attention and was engaged in an exciting game of winkum,,' to which the1'e was no response. John finished the sport news and turned to thex front page. H011 boy, Buddy, listen to this: 'French Club meeting to be jazzy affair. To be held at home of vice-president lllonday evening of senior weekf Herefs the whole dope, Bud, therelll be a big feed and then a program. Say, John, wefre in on that! Letls see that paper. If all you say is true, you and I are going to have some real fun. VVe,ll go together, what say?,' Sure! Won't that be large? Let's see, thatlll be a week from Monday night. This is the first and it'll be on the eleventh-- Ten days!'7 Buddy interrupted. That gives us plenty of time to date up with a pair of skirts, an'- . John's face fell. VVhat? VVhy we don't have to take partneiws to a French Club meeting! WC,1'C not supposed to-why none of the fellows do!,' g'Are you scared to bring a girl or are you just trying to back out of going? Think itfs a funeral welre going to? Not much! High school is no place for' youg you ought to be in an old soldiers' home!', Twice, now, youlve hit mysportsmanship! Go ahead and get your date, I'll be with you. It's time I learned to be a sport if I'ni not one now. P c'Fine, John, shake on it. They stood up and shook hands. The three minute bell had sounded and students were hurrying about. At the east entrance of the Liberal Arts, a crowd of boys and girls chatted and laughed Twenty-efgh t S CAERULEA25 noisily as they waited, ready for the rush for seats in the library. S'long, John. I think I'll ditch gym and go to library ne-xt period. I've seen this blonde of ours up there seventh period, and I might get acquainted. As they parted Buddy called back again. Say, wouldn't it be keen if I'd get her as my partner for the party? I Iot dawg! John hurried on through the crowded halls to his locker. He was already regretting the rashness of his agreement and puzzling over whom he could ask. To say his choice was limited is a bare' statement of facts. He thought of that girl in the English class, and imagined for a moment how proud heid be with her. Such girls as she are meant for other fellows, he thought, and were too good for him. Besides that,-why, he'd forgotten he was bashfulg he was just a shrinking violet! John didn't see Buddy again that day. It was not till they met in their French class ltlonday morning that he got a first hand account of the marvelous progress Buddy had made with the girl. Buddy was beaming all over. He wanted every one to share his joy. In a voice loud enough for half the class to hear, he boastingly told it all. I got my date, Jolm! Say, sheas the cutest kid in the whole school. Her name is Dorothy Austin, and shels a senior, and awfully popular. She likes me, too!! All the fellows are wild about her. She had a part in the senior play last fall, and she's in the VVriters' Club, and BIasque and Sandal, and on the Caerulea staff, and in the Girls, Glee Club, and just everything. Oh, she's wonderfulf, 'cFine! Buddy, that's more'n I could do. Ilm glad you got your datef' allot any idea who you,ll ask? Nope, not yet. For the senior class this was the last week of school. This week is always a riot of fun. Periods are shortened and classes dropped. Rules are sunk in a sea of confusion. It,s all one grand mess, eve1'y one adds to it and every one likes it. Every one has enough to do to Twenty-nine f l n keep an army Working, but little is accomplished. Teachers become hysterical over the making up of back work, and students are Wish- ing each other and themselves luck when grades come out. Generally some b1'igl1t student thinks of turning water through the gas pipes in the .science rooms, or of fixing the bell system better than the janitor had it. Yes, they all help somehow, if there's nothing else to do some one will start a riot over a junior found sitting in the senior section at an assembly. Every one makes it a point to clean out his locker, and dump his locker-mate,s belongings on to the floor. Papers are brought from home to give that final touch about the grounds and buildings. It's the last chance and the best chance, and everybody has a good time. ' Caeruleas come out the latter part of this week. A line that completely blocks all traffic is in front of you whe1'ever you Want to go. Caeruleas are given out on one end of this line, but you are required to find the other end and stand on it. Therefs great competi- tion to see who will get most signatures, notes, poems, or pictures, and who will get his name in the greatest number of his friends, books. The issuance of Caernleas marks the very climax of demoralizationg from this time on there is nothing but the signing of Caeruleas. It was on Friday afternoon that the boys again spoke of the? party. Buddy brought up the subject. How ya coming with your date, old man? Got a gi1'l yet?', Not yet. Don,t worry though. 'cAll right, John, that,s talking. VVho do you think you'll take?,' Ya got me there, Bud. .Ie ne sais pasf, CCY I'he party's lilonday night, you know? Yeh, I know. Howls Dorothy?', HI forgot to tell you Dorothy happened to mention you when I was talking to her yesterday. Gee, John, she thinks you're good looking, can you imagine that? Some girl she knows told her a lot of stuff about you, and Dorothy's anxious to meet you. I said I'd introduce you sometime. Thirty C ER LRKZ5 MHonest, Buddy? Youlre kidding nie, aren,t you? Come on, be honest now. Did she really?'7 HYou seem awfully upset about it. VVhat's the matter, scared?v HSeared! ?! No, I'm not scared! Do you want to meet her? '4Surel7' UCome on, I know where she is, Iill introduce you right now. Good, l,ll ask her to sign my Caeruleaf, Buddy was surprised at this unexpected reply. Jolm was in earnest. It was certainly strange. HAH right. I'll get mine and let her sign it, toof, Together they went to Buddyls locker for the book, then Buddy led a race down the stairs and out the front entrance of the 'Maint building. On the stone steps they found Dorothy seated, reading. She turned as the boys came hurrying up and Buddy at once intro- duced Jolm. Jolm was quiet, but not in the least embarrassed. lllost of the talking was done by Buddy. Strange as it may sound, neither of the other two appeared half as interested in Buddy as in each other. This was the first time John had ever had a good chance to see 4'Buddy's blondef, She talked so charmingly, and had such a soft mellow voice. He wondered that they could have been going to the same school for a whole year and he had never before noticed her. She had the most wonderful light bobbed hair, and the sweetest smile-oh that smile, that smile had been Johnls VVaterloo. Slfe took the boys' books and wrote in each of them. Jolm wrote a few lines in her book after Buddy had signed it, then returning hers and recoyering their own, the boys left. By themselves again they hastened to read what she had written. Buddy looked up with a frown. ff 2 Y2 2 1 2 Jolm blinked his eyes and grinned. He had an ex ression of . 21 doubt as he remarked, Gee whiz, Buddy, there,s something fishy ,bout thisf' Thirty-one 'J in in CAERULEKZ5 - Let,s see that book! Buddy snatched the book from his hand and found the note: Hereis to a boy I hope to someday know a whole lot better. We haVen't been friends ve1'y long, but we will be from now on. I'm looking forward to the French Club party. Iill expect you about 7:30? Here's to a good time ltlonday night, and to our future friendship. Dorothy A. P. S. lNIy address is 4185 E. Ocean. Buddy returned the book. So that's the plan, huh? He squinted his eyes in a threatening manner. VVell, believe me, brother, there'll be fireworks if you take herf, VVhoa now, cal111 yourself, Bud, this is-U 'gTry to explain now! Just like you! You got l1er to ditch meg you know it! Y ou're yellow ! If you mean that as a challenge it's accepted! VVe'll see who's yellow! Come on out behind the gym and wefll finish this right now. Buddy flinched. His voice dropped and faltered. Did you read what she wrote there?', I certainly didf' 'gWell?'7 VVell! He made the decision. 'Tm going to take herf, ltlonday evening a little before dusk a Paige roadster drew up to the curb before a beautiful East Ocean Avenue mansion. A boy jumped lightly f1'0l11 the car and dashed up to the doo1'. Dorothy was waiting. VVhy, John! She seemed undecided, then as to l1e1'self she added, Oh, Iim so glad you're here. 'cReady?,' he stammered. Uh huh. Just a minute, you'd better read this right away. She held out a note which he took and slowly unfolded. ln Tftfrty-two CABRULBA225 the di111 light he could barely read the scrawling hand writing: John, I'm all to blame for this. I had you down wrong, I see now. I was here this afternoon Sz Dot Sz I straightened it all out. I'll explain it to you tonight. It's all right-see you Sz Dot at the party. Buddy John was stupefied. He looked blankly at Dorothy for a moment. To ask a thousand different questions was his temptation and desire. Instead he hastily folded the note and assisted Dorothy with her Wraps. I T Let's hurry, that party starts at eightf' They left the house in silence. As he helped her into the car she smiled shyly. VVas it really such a dreadful mistake? You seem so worried. lNIistake? Buddyls note-H Don,t you know?! VVhy, no, I meant my mistaking your Caerulea for Buddy's. VVell, I guess it was ALL a mistake! First I mistook his Caerulea for yours and wrote a note. Then I accepted his invitation to the French Club in YOUR book, and-W '4Le diable! Is that a fact!?', Before him he saw the web un- woven. Think what he'd done! Of course that note had never been meant for him! He hadn't even asked her! He wondered-if this was a mistake she surely didnit want HIlNIg she wrote that to Buddy! But Buddyas note!? VVhat?! In his bewilderinent he cast a sudden glance upon the girl in the car before him. The faintest trace of a, smile proved the solution of his problems. He recalled having interrupted, so in a low, gentle tone he continued. Bu ' ' f CC Well, but this one-? I don't think it Was, do you?,' Oh,-but you said you were in such a hu1'ry.

' Wfeire all broadnnnded, and besides, the subject will not be altogether toreign to the majoiity ot us. Our hero in this story is fresh from the cows and chickens. He's just sixteen, and never even tasted a coca cola. He needed a haircut and his shoes could have stood a little dusting, but he was otherwise in good shape. The girls made him feel uneasy and a little uncom- fortable, all he wanted was to be left alone. No one really under'- stood him, but it was generally thought he was afraid some vampire was after his thirty-live cents and two pop bottle tickets. c'She Cjyeh, ya guessed right, this will be a romancej was also just a freshman here in Poly. Just like most of them, she had bobbed hair, freckles, a dimple, a couple of eyes, a nose, and a mouth, and she chewed gum '11, everything. I cannot understand love, and I am more inclinedto believe she was after the thirty-five cents and two pop bottle tickets. However, we'll go on with the story. He was bashful but she was not. He lacked courage, while all she lacked was a beau. Kind destiny of 1no1'tal men had a good idea in seating the pair in double seats in an algebra class. QIt was really ltliss Smartls idea, but thereis a touch of romance in saying it the' other way.j In .such an atmosphere one is bound to become ,senti- mental, and thus it was that the idle thoughts of Prince Charming. were turned upon the seat beside him. She in turn returned the affliction. Day by day the acquaintance grew, and he was beginning to lose his lifelong fear of girls. If I understood love I could tell you something of how he niust have felt, but all I know is from watching li'l'Hil He would wait around after class in hopes of meeting her.

He took an inexpli- cable interest in the shoes he wore, while she attempted to find some unknown paper that might possibly be among a couple of dozen others in her note book.

Each one different, M5 each housing its own particular joys and sorrows, each somewhat of a mystery to the others. We are passing the big b1'ownisl1 one with the roof painted all white and glistening. It reminds us of the pictured houses on the 11l01'6 expensive Christmas ca1'ds, the kind with frosty glittering roofs and red glowing windows with huge holly wreaths. It is large and spacious, and we imagine a group of carolle1's standing just below the biggest window singing, God rest you, nierrie gentlemen! A crystal icicle seems about to c1'ack with a tinkling, frosty sound. The hottest of days does not change the scene. The sloping white roof is proof against the sun and heat, and our pretty illusion stands as before, with the fur-clothed, mittened carollers stamping about on the crusty snow. Then the1'e are the twin houses. They are rather ugly and are really just one long building but look like two houses, because they each have a separate flight of stairs. At the foot of each of these twin stairways are two 1'ound globes, milky white. Even in the daytime they seem necessary. Round and white, they are mounted on black pedestals, very stiff and correct. VVe have never seen what autho1's in stories of New York term brownstone fronts,', but we are .sure that the twin houses are exactly what brownstone fronts look like. VVe term them deftly in our minds as the Brownstoners and as such they remain. Farther along on the left side is the English-ltiulberry house. It is a beautiful soft gray with tall, narrow windows and a long high, sloping roof. The en ' ' ' ' c mist-colored gray. Even the hangings a1'e pale lengths of fog-colored silkg so we always imagine deep mulberry drapes which tone in richly and harmonize with the lovely array of English furniture. Along Forty-one 2 s a Q ERUI Blzygg the gray stone wall at one side, by the four .slim poplar trees, is planted a gay mass of purplish lavender and pink. We have never been able to find out just what variety of bloom it is, we whirl so swiftly by and get but a glance. VVe only know that it is short and rambling and colorful and looks better than anything we know of against the wall. The English house we can always see in our mind as crowning a lovely little hill amid trees in some '4shire or derry. English names always, have, we notice, either a shire', or a derry to them. The English-Mulberry house is very beautiful and runs a near second to our favorite. V i Then there is the mausoleum house. VVe don't like it and still it's rather nice. It's very large, and white with pilla1's and a marblish looking effect over all, making us think of a huge tomb or some dignified burial vault for the scions of a great family. Itls interesting but chilly and massive looking. Then there is the ugly brick block house. It isn't 1'eally ugly but it's so obviously not pretty. It SCCIIIS to stand out, saying, I mean money. There is a moneyed look about it. Someway we see sheaves of dollar bills. Large, it takes up almost a blockg but the grounds necessarily are quite small. VVe donlt like that house. VVe think what an artistic one could have been built with the SHIIIC outlay of money represented. The brick block house C we call it that because it sounds so hard and squarej is out of sight and we gladly look forward to the one that counts. It is our favorite-this little tan house. It reminds us of the gingerbread house in the fairy tale of Hansel and Gretel. Not that it looks like candy, but it appeals to our imagination. The door is set in a curved porch with an iron grille gate. The windows extend almostto the floor and a1'e wide. It is a fat, squatty little place but so pretty. It looks cozy and homey. At night just before the curtains are drawn we see a rose-shaded lamp shining through the Wide- windows. There are no angles to Our Favorite. It is all soft curving lines and seems to hug the ground. It is surrounded by a small plot of ground with homely flowers, and leading in a rambling sort off Forty-two C ERULBKZ5 way from the street to the little gate are stepping stones half covered by the protecting turf. You could probably put Our Favorite into the east wing of the brick block house and lose it completely, but we merely laugh at you and jealously guard the mental possession of our small, tan, fairy-tale house with its stepping stones. Houses, houses, houses! IVe like them all, and every time we go whirling by we notice something we missed before. It is a game that never grows old, watching the houses lining the d1'ive. THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF A PINK SLIP Louise Elliott ,125 I came into the world as a rosy, bouncing baby of forty minutes. Every day I grew to double my size, until at the age of live days I was a whopper. By that ti111e I was old enough to serve my owner as a passport to lNIr. Moore, who, taking pity on my wrinkled and aged physiognomy, reincarnated me as a strapping young pink-slip of six hundred minutes. From that time on I led a checkered career, being lost and found, reduced and increased several tinres. lNIy family and I were the undisputed dictators of the school, having no rivals but the Yellow Peril of the Attendance Office and the spasmodic blue slips. But, alas, the l'Clg'I1 of the Red Death is over, and a blue gloom hangs over the school, for now the Demon Demerits sit enshrined on teacher's desk, and we are gone forever. . flpfvfbrg, ff. -14 Forty-three CAERULE, A125 ROMANCE-AND OSVVALD Frances Date ,23 0 jirig HE had blue eyes. He loved blue eyes. Her hair was a 8 lovely shade of chestnut brown. Chestnut brown was his idea of what a girl's hair should be. She had 1'ed lips, 'QA 'EL' skilfully done. He adored red lips, skilfully done. In short, she was his perfect ideal made manifest. His one desire was to meet the girl. How to accomplish it, the poor boy didn't quite know. She lunched fifth, while he nourished himself when the clock struck twelve. She patronized the ucaff' and he imbibed his ham sandwich in the less classical atmosphere ,of the handout. It never occurred to him to change his lunch hour, and his agony increased with the days. One day he passed the girl on the way to his chemistry cflass. For one dizzying second she looked at him and his heart stopped beating. Forty minutes later he emerged from the chemistry class with his hand in a lurid looking bandage. Blue eyes and nitric acid are a disastrous combination. The close of the term grew steadily nearer, and Uswald grewf steadily paler. He couldn't eat, nothing interested him, and sleep was the fourth dimension. His mother found his ordinarily tidy study littered with scraps of paper bearing cryptic messages. A rhyming dictionary had been added to Oswald's library. 'fGloriou.s eyes and lovers' sighsi' occupied the bookcase. Cruel hearts and cupid,s darts were strewn about the carpet. Oswald's mama looked per- plexed as she left the room. The term drew to a reluctant close, and Oswald had not met his divinity. He imagined her name must be Violet, or Pansy, some- thing sweet and delicate. Every day he saw her he was ruineld for steady work. Every night she haunted his dreams. Two blue slips added to his ecstacy, and he flunked flat in math. He liked his teachers, but he also pitied them. VVhy weren't they sweet, and small, and demure like Violet. To think of Violet Forty'four T I C ERULE A125 and teachers in the same breath was sacrilege. Oswald dismissed the teache1's. One fine day capped the climax on Oswaldls career. He saw, with mingled awe, amazement, and fearful jealousy, a fellow student talking with the vision. They seemed to he arguing. That any male in his right mind could argue with a girl like that was incredihlea VVas he insulting her? She seemed to he pained. Oswald clenched his fists. As soon as she had departed, Oswald collared his friend. 4'VVho is she?7' he gasped, his hopes heating high. 'cVVho is shc?,, 'cShe's my algebra teacher!

During the first year of drilling, we were looked upon as wild-cat stuff -interesting, but not a necessary factor in anything. The boring in the sophomore strata was in charge of Billy Summers. His assistants were Fred Cutchshaw, field superintendent, Fannie Peters, drillerg and Myron Babcock, derrick man. The down- ward progress towards the sands of knowledge was difficult at times, however, it was at these places that the excellency of the executjiwe force and the loyalty of the crew were shown. The faculty helped in completing the many fishing jobs which marked this sand' of learning. Our showings began to be numerousg the upper-classmen started to take notice of the wild cat. Perhaps it was Thad Omohundro who placed on an inter-scholastic debate team and lllyron Babcock who played on the State Chamfpionship Water Polo team that brought about the change in the upper classes' attitude. It was gratifying in June to find in the core barrel the junior sand.

Pauline Langston and Sara Allen were in charge of the stock and the keeping of the log-book. It is doubtful, in our minds, if the managing of the drill crew was ever entrusted to a better set of company officers. They proved themselves worthy of their positions and always b1'ougl1t the most favorable commendation to us. Janet Richmond made our mark in the world of Demosthenes when she succeeded in taking first place in two debates. Little WOH1CH,,, our first dramatic attempt, proved to be the greatest junior play ever produced successfully on the local boards. The drilling in the senior strata was carried on by lllorris Cantley, drilling superintendent, Cecil Graves, field superintendent, Wilf1'ed Charlton, drillerg and Helen Bovee, derrick man. Debate was carried to its highest pinnacle by Ellsworth llleyer and Robert Schwarz. The entire commission was composed of members from our crew. Come Out of the Kitchenf, the senior play, was a dramatic success, Janet Richmond and VVray McCoy showing their histrionic worth in the leading roles. We nea1'ed completion. It was with a feeling of great accomplishment that we brought in the well and finished our high school education. Forty-nine M F E S in C BRULE A125 JAMES L, ADAMS, College Mgr.

He had a record of 15 3-8 credits in 1 grades and 3-8 of a credit in 2 grades at the time the ratings were made. He is graduating in June with 19 credits. Edwin has been a member of the VVriters' Club and has interested himself particularly in the Commercial Club and commercial depart- ment during his high school career. He expects to enter the Univer- sity of Southern California in September. lliary Sailey, the salutato1'ian, approached closely to Edwin's record with an average grade for four years, work of 1.067 . She had 12 credits in 4'1 grades and 7-8 of a credit in g'2,, grades at the time the ratings were made. lVIiss Safley is graduating with 17 credits. She, as well as Edwin, was a member of the W1'iters' Club during her senior year. Both are graduates of the Pine Avenue Graunnar School. As this semester,s grades were not complete, they were not con- sidered in the ratings. Ninety Wt WW ll Ill , 'w1,nW. E533 W ffl iff ll 58 DOSWWGBADUAWE Hazle Hodges, Eula Clayton Cecil Hunnicutt, Miss Pooley A certain reverence is always due a P. G., and especially one who is of the class of '22. ltfore than seventy-five students, most of Whom Were of this class, returned this year to take post-g1'aduate courses. The class organized, the first semester, With Franz Buerger, president, Hazle Hodges, vice-president, Hallie Cavvrey, treasurer, and ltlartin Fisher, secretary. The second semester, Hazle Hodges was elected president, Cecil Hunnicutt, vice-president, John Feldmeier, treasurer, and Eula Clayton, secretary. ltliss Eleanor G. Pooley, who in past years has been the class teacher, again led they destiny of the class of '22, Two leading positions in The Mikado were filled by P. Gfs. Wona VVimmer played the part of Katisha, and ltlelvin Koontz acted the role of Nanki-Poo. Hazle Hodges Was president of the Owls, Club. To safeguard against ennui, the members of the class met in room 429 each day during section period. The monotony of the school year was broken by a beach party and Weinie bake, Where, in true soldier fashion, all the P. Gfs gathered around the camp fire and told the stories of their lives. Ninety-orie MMZ4.. . UN IOI2...lf..'24n.. 1 Charles Boren, Lois Heartwell, Jack Berbower, Jack Withers Miss Paine, Mr. Comfort, Miss Hess Coming forward in student activities, the class of 124 has proved to be a true possessor of the red blood of this institution. Athletics held a prominent position, junior men placing on a large number of the teams. Morley Drury was captain of the football squad and was the only man in the City League to make the1A:lll State eleven. VVith their basketball team, the juniors took the inter- class championship. Junior girls have been among the most enterprising of the school. Three oflicers of the Girls, League were junior girls: Caroline Jackson, vice-presidentg Josephine VVright, treasurer, and Alda lllills, corresponding secretary. The girls' volley-ball team won the inte1'class championship. The class showed promise in debate, with VVinnifred Nimmo and Fred VVilkey on interscholastic teams, and Frederick Thou, manager. In dramatics the class also held its own. Two leading parts in the annual Shakespearian drama were taken by juniors. Clarence, the class play, was successfully produced, bringing fame to Josephine Fisher, Royall Howell, Diary Gist, and Harold ltlitchell, leads. Credit is due the president, Charles Boreng vice-p1'esident, Jack VVithersg secretary, Lois Heartwellg and treasurer, Jack Berbower. Ninety-two '25eSODI lOlr10l2.E' 0 Z5 Robert Arrnistead, Barbara Schilling, Harold Wilson Maxine Elliott, Mrs. Hess Finishing the second lap of the long four year grind, the class of 325 has taken a prominent place in school activities. The sophomores have had good representation on the school teams. Jewell Rich and Harold Wilson played first team football, Albert Fry, Bob Lewis, Harold Guichard, Bob Armistead, and Jewell Rich were track men, J ack Dillon, Vain Hart, and Fred Holm were on the baseball team, Calvert Strong and Fred Barnett were polo men. g i Emulators of Demosthenes in the class of '25 crushed the fresh- men by a unanimous decision of the judges. In the light of their past accomplishments, the sophomores feel confident that the class of ,25 will be looked up to and honored as one of the best classes old Poly ever turned out into the world. The officers were Robert Armistead, presidentg Harold VV'ilson, vice-presidentg Dlaxine Elliott, secretary, and Barbara Schilling, treasurer. Mrs. Rose C. Hess was class teacher. Ninety-three H' i ++'26+++FIZE'SHI1AN+++' M By establishing a high standard of scholarship and by displaying a remarkable aptitude in school activities, the n1en1be1's of the class of '26 have demonstrated their capability of leading the school in ensuing years. A In athletics, especially, freshman aspirants have distinguished themselves. James Sims gained the position of second baseman upon the school baseball nine. Don lNf1cKillop won a place upon the second football team. Alfred Maloney made the 130 pound football team and was winner of the 126 pound wrestling championship. Williaiii Parke, who managed the f1'eslnnan baseball and basketball teams, manifested great aquatic skill and was awarded a position on the interscholastic water polo team, he also made the 130 pound football team. Everett Brown and VVilber Stanley scored as 110 pound basketball players. Lawrence Perrish was the f1'eshman representative upon the school wrestling team. The athletic activities of the freshman girls also are worthy of praise. They entered into the athletic tournaments with commend- able ardor, and although they did not win the championship, they made a fine showing in all of the events. The freshmen showed unusual faculties in the forensic domain. Anna lllorath and Williaiii Fennell were selected to rep1'esent the class upon the debating platform. Despite the fact that they were defeated by the sophomores, they are next year destined to vanquish all comers. Ruth France was manager of the team, Miss ltlabel Platz was coach. Though the class did not organize, class spirit was kept up by activities during section period. The freshmen were divided into three- sections with Miss Alta B. Hall, Miss Sara Pepple, and Miss Grace Irvin as preservers of the peace. Bliss Jane L. Fox as oracle answered all the questions propounded by the freslnnen. Section period was spent with entertainments. In the boys, sections, yells were given under the direction of Wilbel' Stanley and William Ferguson.

UIDING the student body wisely and efficiently, the 1922- 6, 7555 -1 . . .- . - , -. H923 commission, avoiding the shoals oi discord and criticism, has brought the school through a busy and successful year. Under this administration the Melody Bflaids, the Boys, Chefs' Club. the Girls' Athletic Club and the Commercial Club were or- ganized and the Stock Judging team was recognized as a school activity. The Owls' Club, the VVriters' Club, the lliasque and Sandal Society, and the Stage Crew were granted pins of appropriate design. Gym team, wrestling, golf, and swimming were rated as regular ll1lIl0l' sports by the commission. New bleache1's were erected and painted and a cement curb was placed around the track. The athletic ability of the fair sex was recognized when six girls we1'e given swimming letters and four girls were given tennis letters. The various members of the commission attended the Thursday meetings of the Chamber of Commerce and gave reports at the following commission meeting. The commissioners established an entertainment fund, ruling that ten per cent of the proceeds of each pay assembly should be used One hundred four governing body. The point system was also reorganized a11d brought FC' ERULEA' Z for this purpose. This fund was used for renting moving picture films and for providing entertaining and instructive assemblies. A portion of the money from this fund was used to acquire an upright piano for the social hall of the Practical Arts building. At the insti- gation of the commission a silver loving cup was presented to Hallie Cawrey as a mark of appreciation of her untiring service in behalf of tl1e student body. In order that the students might become more familiar with the rules and regulations of the student body, Iligh Life was requested by the commission to print the written and unwritten laws of the school government. In February, the merit system was endorsed by the commission, in spite of the fact that at that time the majority of the student body was strongly opposed to the new plan. The subsequent success of this system testifies to the good judgment and foresight of the up to date.

Under this admin- istration the campus was divided into zones that the students might more easily co-operate in keeping it spotless. Miniature wooden policemen were placed at corners to keep students from inadvertently cutting across and making paths. VVith this improvement to the lawns, the J. C. C., co-ope1'ating with the Girls, League, sold tags to raise funds for the purchase of many shrubs which were placed on the lawns around the buildings. The five snappy acts of the J. C. C. faculty vaudeville fulfilled all expectations as to its propensity for humorous entertainment. As the biggest boosters for the athletic teams, the J. C. C. formed a Booster Brigade and attended the games in a body.

The Civic Committee, with Helen VVilson as chairman, had charge of the annual old clothes drive, and the Thanksgiving and Christmas drives. This year the annual bazaar served its purpose Well in arousing the carnival spirit, since it was a great success socially, although less money than last year was taken in.

VVilson, Sturtevant Falls and the Hermit's, and up the VVest Fork trail from the cabin were some of the pleasures in which the girls who spent their week-ends at the Girls, League cabin indulged. Approximately four hundred girls visited the cabin during the school year. During the summer months, parties are allowed to go for a week. The cabin is to be re-roofed and a new, stove is to be purchased during the summer.

On a small lot on Seventeenth Street, three companies were organized and temporary officers appointed to take charge of them. The usual system of issuing clothes and supplies was not used. Instead, Sergeant B. H. Griffin, who took charge of that part of the work, issued slips instructing the future soldiers when they could get their uniforms. Within a week over two hundred fellows had donned their O. D.'s and were getting used to the enchanting smell of moth balls. With the arrival of Armistice Day, orders were published stat- ing that there would be a parade in which the unit would take part. After walking through nearly all the streets in town as a preliminary to the parade, the R. O. T. C. aggregation marched down Pine Avenue, past the reviewing stand, and then-an extraordinary and unheard-of surprise waited the battalion. Instead of taking the guns back to school via the hoof iti' method, the fellows found special busses awaiting them., On December 29, lVIajor Bernard Sharp, commanding officer, said farewell to the unit. As a remembrance of the battalion, a gold one hundred forty 'A ...4a.. C ERULEKZ5 pen and pe11cil set was presented to him. With the unit forming a square and standing at attention, the Dlajor 1'eceived the gift, read the card which said From the boys, and concluded by speaking a few words of sincere appreciation. For weeks the R. U. T. C. was without a connnander and with- out permanent officers. Sergeant Griflin took charge of the battalion but was unable to take official action in permanent organization. Captain Percy lNflcC. Vernon was at last detailed by the war depa1't1nent as commandant. On his arrival, November 16, things began to hlllll. Tests were given, permanent oflicers appointed, and a regular schedule of drill was planned. Two cadet majors were appointed. Ed Kinsey was commanding major, and John Foster became executive major. John Feldmeier was permitted to yell his head off in the role of captain adjutant, until he became frantic, graduated, and was replaced by Gordon Hypes. These three officers composed the staff. The battalion colors were under the escort of Bert Fleming and Christian Crossman. In due course of time, mid-year te1'1n ar1'ived and so did about fifty rookies. They were assigned to the military and disciplinary guidance of Cadet Captain Robert Thompson. January 5 was a great day for the R. O. T. C., the hated over- seas caps being cast into disuse, and the recently arrived garrison caps donned. 'gOver-seas caps? VVell, what are they doing over here then?,' was a commonly expressed opinion. Shelter tents and automatic rifles were asked for. Both arrived and immediately instruction was given in putting up the tents and in the care and operation of the automatic. VVith better facilities for shooting than ever before, the cadets started to try their luck at hitting the shaky little bull's eyes. Both outdoor and indoor range work was done by every member of the battalion. A new indoor range made possible much more accurate shooting. On the distant outdoor range, shooting took place on different Saturdays. The new 1'ange was finished too late to enable the firing team one hundred forty-one ABR LEN25 R. Bramble E. Church VV.

The alternates we1'e Chester VVilson, Benton lllurdock, Leolin Boswell, Ilarry Clayton, and Edward Church. Athletic day came around when VVednesday did. Baseball, football, and basketball kept every one busy. Near the close of school a regular schedule of indoor baseball was played off' by the different companies. D Company finally defeated A Company in the final championship play-off. Annual company competition came off Tuesday, lllay 22. A Company convinced the judging officers that they were best and received the cup with the compliments of the judges. B Company was second. A few days later the first platoon of A Company, com- manded by First Lieutenant VValter Gillett, walked off with first honors in the platoon competition, winning the La Shell cup. Concluding the R. O. T. C. activities for the year, the American Legion entertained the battalion at a banquet shortly before the close of school. A BAND Playing on all occasions where addition to the chagrin of op- ponents or to the pleasure of guests could be accomplished, Polyis forty-piece R. U. T. C. band has completed a year marked with success and service to the student body. George C. Moore, di1'ector, who has taught music in Long Beach schools for nine years, states that his policy has always been to produce the best nmsic possible. The success of this program for this year is proved by the statement of Captain S. R. Beard, inspector and property agent for all Los Angeles high schools, to the effect that One hundred forty-six CAERULB A125 Long Beach possesses the best R. O. T.

Behold the important happenings of this yea1 s Stage: September 21-At an assembly in the interests of High Life, the staff of the paper was seated on the stage. After the High Life manager and faculty adviser had spoken to the student body, that illustrious assemblage awakened to the fact that High Life tickets were then on sale for fifty cents. September 26-Witli all due solemnity and ceremony, a fright- ened little goat was led before a pulpit and held very still while James L. Adams, football manager, poured root beer on the animal's head and said, I christen thee Spark Plug. Thus Polyis football mascot, which was captured by Morris Cantley at Catalina, received his name. September 27-Harold Lewis 322, commissioner of athletics for that year, was presented with the Yale cup for being the best all round student in scholarly and athletic activities.

Cwhich includes such talent as Jerry Rogers, Paul Peek, ltffervin Timm, Oliver ltfattson, and Jim Adamsj gave a series of living picturesf, with such masterpieces as The Thinker, Paul Revere,s Ride, '4The End of the Trail, and The Dying Gaul. All this in the interests of football! October 16-Oh, the poor down-trodden man! The ltfasque and One hundred fifty-two S TAGE3 ee - 1l1l7 Sandal skit, In 1999, told of the trials of a mistreated husband. October 26-The whole football team, including substitutes 'n' everything, was on exhibition before the gawking student body.

Keep the campus clean! These were the orders received from Ralph E. Oliver at the J. C. C. 'cyear roundw clean-up campaign. November 16-The last and greatest of all the football assemblies! lVIanager Adams requested Captain Drury to give a short talk, but that young man impertinently replied, c'I,m sorry, lNIr. lNIanager, that I can't talk today, but I,ll sing if some one will play for me. I Will, said Oliver lNIattson, and to the astonishment of those present sauntered nonchalantly to the piano. And running his grace- ful fingers over the keys, Joe brought forth tones such as Pade- revvski himself might well have been proud of. All would have gone Well had not the audience suddenly realized that the music that was reaching their ears came from ubehind the scenes not c'before them. In other Words lNIr. lXIattson was deceiving his listeners, for he wasnit even touching the piano keys. But all the time lNIorley was blithely singing! Then came Les Cummins!

This to advertise the senior play, Come Out of the Kitchen. November 22, 23, 24-uCon1e Out of the Kitclienf, presented by the senior class, was charming and o11e of Poly's triumphs. Janet Riclunond was lovely both as Olivia Dangerlield and as Jane Ellen, the diminutive Irish maid, with her delightful Yis sorsf' Cora Faulkner, as interestingly portrayed by Dorothy Lawler, was the modern society girl. VVray lWcCoy as Burton Grant, the young Northerner, played the part with the finesse of an experienced actor. Thomas Miller gave a good interpretation of Randolph VVeeks, the disappointed suitor.

Never has the auditorium been more beautiful than this Christmas time with its festoons of greenery and holly wreaths. A visualization of a madonna, accompanied by the Glee Clubs, was most impressive, and the spirit of the Christmas- tide seemed to be in the heart of every one. January 6-Victory for the seniors in the interclass debate with their Worthy opponentsf, the juniors. January 19- As You Like It', was presented by the Oral Shakespeare class. The stage settings were perfect and Olive Schweitzer as Rosalind was truly Shakespeare's heroine. Thomas llfiller as Orlando made an ardent lover. Winnifred Nimmo played One hundred fifty-four CAERULEA'25s ul i w ll with sympathy the part of Celia. The whole cast showed that much elfort had been put forward to make the play the success it was. January 24-Entertainment De Luxe, in form of the senior vaudeville, was the parting gift of the 12b seniors to the midyear graduates. February 7-8-9-c'Seeing It 'l'hrough,,, a picture made in Armenia, was shown before Poly students in three assemblies. The appeal of the picture was sincere and the high school gave far over its quota in money and canned milk. February 5-The sale of Caerulea tickets was started in an assembly.

To present the Girls' League and its various committees to the new girls of the school, the advisory board of the League gave clever bits of entertainment representing its work that surely must have extended an invitation to every new girl to become a part of the Girls, League. lllarch 9-Beware the Ides of March! An executive committee was appointed to hold in its hands the fate of students who dare to trespass on Poly,s lawns. c'The Florist Shop was presented by lllasque and Sandal. lllarch 21, 22, 23-Delightfully amusing and well presented was Clarence, the junior class play. Royal Howell in the title role of Clarence was indeed T arkington's eccentric, droll hero. Josephine Fisher as Violet Finney showed her ability as an accomplished player. lllary Gist as Cora VVheeler, the daughter of the family, was most piquant. Her brother, Bobbie, taken by Harold lllitchell, One hundred fifty-five CABRULEKZ5 was Well played. Other members of the cast were lllrs. Wl1eele1', Joanna Paineg lllr.

But it didnlt prevent the Hliarber Shop Quartetten from the 'cBarber of Seal Beachv froin being presented as one of the very dignified sketches given by the more dignified pedagogues at the faculty vaudeville. The Citadel of Freedom-Un this rather ambiguous subject Poly orators expounded for the fifty dollar prize given bye the Qne hundred ,fifty-seven CAERULEKZ5 - Citizens, League Committee. Ellsworth llleyer was the Winner and is to compete at the semi-finals. April 17-Poly has tl1C111. Abused young maidens and dejected boys wander around in search of them. What?

He urged the parents to give their children a square deal in order to receive a square deal in return. Judge Lindsey declared most emphatically that the state must stop fighting people and fight for them. May 23, 244, 25, 26-Beautiful in costuming and surpassing all other operas in the inte1'pretation of the roles, The lllikadon was brilliantly presented by the glee clubs and orchestra. The scenery was, to a great extent, symbolic, and the newest lighting effects were used. The story, which is laid in Japan, is that of the son of the Mikado, Nanki-Poo, who rather than marry an elderly court lady runs away i11 the disguise of a minstrel. About his escapades the plot is woven. Huge toriis arched the stage on either side and masks hung from the ceiling. Especially effective was the heavy dark satin curtain with the sacred mountain of Japan painted on it. This was illum- inated by lights and, mingled with the vivid splashes of color from the costumes, it presented a delightful picture. o Not only did the leads stand out, but also the choruses, made up of school-girls and noblemen. lllelvin Koontz as Nanki-Poo took the leading male role. Jean VVoodside as Yum-Yum had the feminine lead. Other principals were Arloine Burdick, Pitti-Sing, Katherine VVettstein, Peep-Bog VVona VVimmer, Katisha, the elderly court lady, VVray McCoy, the Mikado, Ko-Ko, llffervin Timmy Pish-Tush, Gerald Rogers, and Poo-Bah, Paul Peek. Bliss Vinnie Gee and Miss Ethel Ardis directed the production. For the first time the heavy sale of tickets demanded a fourth per- formance of the opera. One hundred fifty-efgfzt CAERULEK25 .

All of the schools directed their greatest efforts towa1'd tl1e Long Beach ga111e in an attempt to down tl1e nationally known Kienholz team. Early season prospects were good, as ten letter men had returned to school. With these as a nucleus, Kienholz whipped into shape a team that had all of tl1e appearances of a record beater. Sport writers throughout the state credited Long Beach as the most likely con- tender for state honors. From game to game, however, the score margins dwindled, until the last two league games resulted in defeat. Morley Drury, in his second year as captain, was the mainstay of Long Beach both in defense and offense. He gained the friendship and respect of all the opposing teams by his sportsmanlike playing. Long Beach men placed on the all city eleven are Morley Drury, full- backg Ray Tandy, left tackle, and Don Hill, halfback. Long Beach has nothing to regret. She played the game with One hundred sixty-four CAERULE A125 MANAGER ADAMS COACH KIENHOLZ DR. SMITH every ounce of her strength and fought until the last. The six letter 111en who return next year will be fortunate, again to represent Long Beach, who has such a sterling name in football circles. ANAHEIM, Og LONG BEACH, 48 Old King Gridiron himself could not have asked for a more fitting debut for the Long Beach football team when the Jackrabbits sauntered over to Orange County September 30 and drubbed the Anaheim eleven 48 to 0. No appeal for student support was made for this game, as Coach Kienholz desired to get a line on his material. Nevertheless, nearly five hundred students saw the game and assisted the team in smothering the Beet-harvesters. Drury missed the first game in his high school career, as his shoulder had not yet recovered from a scrimmage mishap. STANFORD FROSH, 4193 LONG BEACH, 0 As the Stanford Frosh game took place October 7 just before the opening of the League schedule, Coach Kienholz played his first string substitutes throughout the contest in order to reserve his first team for following games. He was content to accept defeat, as the one hundred sfxty-five i U5UllCAERULEA'Z'3 -i 6- RICH DRURY A. HILL game did not affect the team standing toward championship. Dinnie Evans plainly displayed his ability to pilot a team as though he were the varsity quarterback. LINCOLN, Og LONG BEACH, 25 Long Beach's largest representation at a city league battle saw the Seasiders crumble the crafty Railsplitters in an exciting tussle at Bovard Field, October 13. A punting contest between Drury of Long Beach and Thompson of Lincoln kept the ball continually in the air. Despite the fact that Drury was not the fullback, he was called back from end and promptly assisted the pill down the field from fifty to sixty yards each time. In the third quarter the Lincolnites looked dangerous, but a fumble gave the ball to Long Beach, and Drury kicked out of danger. Al Hill made some pretty runs until he was carried out with a Hcharley-horsef, A Valiant attempt by the Lincoln quarterback to score by passes in the last few minutes of' play met with little success, and the gallop- ing Jackrabbits carried the ball back to the middle of the field Where the game ended.

A little tinge of over-confidence could be seen in the Long Beach players as the Presidents carried the ball to the Long Beach twenty- yard line in the first few minutes of play. After the Jackrabbits' goal had been threatened twice inore, Captain Drury scooped up a punt and ran through an open field for sixty-five yards making the first touchdown and turning the tide for Long Beach. This sudden turn of affairs seemed to dishearten the Democrats and Long Beach had the upper hand from then on. D1'l11'5V,S inter- ception of a pass and the receiving of another resulted in two more scores for Long Beach. Wilson failed to kick goal on the last touch- down. Rich and Babcock, of the sub list, outshone some of the 1'egulars in this game. L. A.

SHIFLET MATTSON SWEIGART annihilated, but it was far from annihilation. The Mechanics put up a stubborn resistance and there would have been a scoreless tie had not Don Hill broken through the whole Poly formation on a right tackle buck to run sixty yards for a touchdown. A muddy field was of great assistance to Poly in holding Long Beach to such a low score, as the Jackrabbits had played all of their games on dry fields. The ball was carried by Poly to the Long Beach twenty yard line many times, only to be held for downs. Drury relieved several bad situations by the expert use of his punting toe. Evans and llfattson played alternately at quarter. Kienholz used more substitutes in this game than in any other during the season. L. A. HIGH, 7, LONG BEACH, 6 The heartbreaker of the season was the L. A. High game, played on the Jackrabbit lot November 4. Championship hopes were high and the recent victories assured every one that Long Beach was the strongest in the race up to that time. To prove that dope means nothing in football, the Romans waited for the breaks and, just as Long Beach was about to score, Thompson, the L. A. fullback recovered a fumble by Al Hill and ran One hundred sixty-efgizt CABRULEK25 ANDERSON D. HILL LEV ninety yards through a clear field for the Pioneers' only touchdown. Nunierous attempts by the Jackrabbits during the first half to tie the score were fruitless. The Romans were evidently following instruc- tions to watch for the breaks and to play strictly a defensive game. By the opening of the second half the Long Beach stands were wild. VVith the support from the crowds as an impetus, the Jack-L rabbits by a series of passes succeeded in crossing the Romans, goal only to be called back on an offside penalty. Another attempt for a score met with success, but the failure to kick goal blasted 'Long Beachls chances to win. Thus ended championship hopes for the season of 1922. SHERMAN INDIANS, Og LUNG BEACH, 6 Un Armistice Day the local pigskin, chasers won the hardest fought game of the season. The fast Sherman Indians were the opponents whose backfield was a dream of accuracy, speed, and co- operation. The score, 6 to 0, tells the story. Sherman possessed one of the best men that has ever played on the Poly field. This worthy descendant of old Rain in the Face, who answers to the nanre of Cassida, ran the Long Beach defense ragged. The entire second One hundred sfzcty-nfne CAERULBAQZS ., . LOVEJOY BABCOCK PEEK team played the greater part of the game. The backfield combination of Evans, Rich, Si111, and Babcock functioned brilliantly and the substitute line held like a stone wall. PASADENA, 13g LONG BEACH, 0 VVith chanipionship hopes roosting With the cuckoos, Long Beach entered the Pasadena game on November 17 determined to uphold the record of the past four years and to hand a stinging defeat to the Bulldogs. Evidently the Crown City boys had thought some- thing about winning, too, as they had placed all over thecity posters with the caption BEAT LONG BEACH. True enough, the Bulldogs caught the Jackrabbits sleeping and white-Washed them with a 13 to 0 count. Downs, Dagley, and 0'Connor, the Irish Pasadena backfield, hit the line like a battering rain. These charges could not be stopped in less than five yards. Anderson, Price, A. Hill, Lev, VVallace, Mattson, Babcock, Ellis, Ferguson, Sweigart, Peek, Shiflet, Sinn, and VVhite played their last ganie for Long Beach against Pasadena. One hundred seventy , .. , CABRULEAQZ . . . FERGUSON WVHITE EVANS SECOND TEAM FOOTBALL The second football team was a wonder team in its division, and would have given the first team of many a high class institution a run for its money. It finished a successful season, winning a majority of the games played and showing theiold Jackrabbit fight- ing spirit to a marked degree. It was no uncommon sight to see the seconds walk all over the first team squad in practice. The success of the unlimiteds was due in no small measure to the fact that C0mfort's bunch of pigskin chasers were out every night to scrim- mage against the first team, so that they might not go stale. The locals met Compton, Fullerton, L. A. Poly, Hollywood, and San Pedro. A good showing was made in all of the gamesg the line plunging of the rangy Bennett featured. THE 130 POUND TEAM The plucky one hundred and thirty pound team started off like a house aiire this year, winning the first two games in big league fashion. With the opening of the city league season the going immediately became rougher. The local lads succeeded, however, in winning two games and tying one out of a total of five league one hundred seventy-one CAERULEK25 BOREN SIM ELLIS games.

A. High, and in so doing added the City League Championship belt tor their collection of the season,s little mementos. The next week they were awarded the Southern California Champi- onship by the C. I. F. These doughty little warriors truly had a remarkable season, being scored on onlyvonce. They scored 206 points to their opponents' 6. The squad was ably coached all season by W. R. B. Osterholt, fornier Princeton halfback. The midgets deserve all the credit in the world, inasmuch as they played through a hard season and trained diligently, and what is more important brought home the coveted championship bacon. The team lined up as follows: EndYRichards, Pageg tackles- Pratt, Rosenberg, Perry, Coreyg guards Valker, VVithers, Bayneg center-Bode fcaptainjg quarterback-Newbo ihalfbacks-Nelson, Standleag fullback-Northmore.

The entire student body was backing the team at the finish, and had the season been longer the bacon would surely have come home to rest at the Queen of the Beaches. At the start of the year, Coach Kienholz had three letter men back with which to mold a team, and the prospects were anything but b1'igl1t. With Captain Hill, Fred Price, and Ned Anderson as a basis, however, the coach placed a team on the floor that Won all but one of the practice games, and with the start of League competition excitement was at fever heat. The first game was with Poly's age-old rival, Pasadena. The Jackrabbits Won by the score of 25 to 18. This victory alone made the basketball year worth while, as it evened up a certain football game which the Seasiders lost to the Bulldogs last fall. The next in line was Hollywood, and with Anderson and Price playing their last game for their Alma lN1ater the locals lost the toughest iight of the year, losing in the last thirty seconds of play by one point. Long One hundred seventy-five CAERULBAQZ5 Beach scored two more baskets from the field than did the Nloviei City hoop shooters. The Hollywood game marked a turn for the worst. VVith Anderson and Brice lost to the team by the nine se111ester ruling, the boys took the floor against Franklin considerably weakened, but none the less undaunted. It was, however, of no avail. VVhen the time was up, the lads from Franklin were on top. Rothrock was the only Long Beach man who could hit the basket, although Captain Hill played a rustling floor game. After losing this game, it was plain to the coach that the quintette were not working in unison. The fans were howling for a victory. In fact the reputation of the Seasiders was at stake. The University of Southern Californials basketball pavilion was the scene of the next game. The opponents were none other than the Pioneers, better known as the dope spille1's of .lackrabbit championship hopes in all lines of athletic endeavor. Kienholz presented the best floor com- bination seen in action for the year. VVith Hill and Rothrock at fo1'ward, Simpson and Leedo111 at guard, and the rangy Bennett at center, the Romans were completely baffled during the first half. In the last half the Beach forwards had the ball in L. A.'s territory two- thirds of the time but were unable to make this advantage count. Don was the unluckiest man in seven counties, missing a dozen or more shots of the heart-breaker variety. Dennis, Pioneer center, repeatedly dribbled through the entire Long Beach team and on nearly every occasion cashed in with a field goal for two points. The 11lgl1t1H9.1'C finally ended 14 to 9 in favor of Los Angeles High. The following week brought Jefferson down to the local gym- nasium expecting easy meat, but she ran into a large-sized brick wall. The rejuvenated Jackrabbits played like a team possessed and won by the one-sided count of 24 to 14. Jack was hitting the basket with pleasing regularity, Hill was feeding splendidlyg and Bennett was invincible at standing guard. The whole outfit were working as a unit. The final game of the City League season was with the strong One hundred seventy-s1'x CAERULEK25 Lincoln outiit. Lincoln had held the Champion T oilers to a hard- fought one-point victory the week before, and it was a foregone conclusion that the Seasiders would be lucky to escape anything short of annihilation. The game that followed will long be remembered by followers of the casaba art. The game was tight all the way, first one team leading, then the other. At the end of the regular period of play the rival squads were deadlocked with twenty-four points apiece. In the play-off period the locals made one basket from the field, while the Railsplitters were idle, thereby winning the game. It was a plucky finish to an otherwise inglorious season. The team gave its best and the school has a right to be proud of its record and its clean sportsmanship. Edgar Pritchard managed the team in a thoroughly efficient and businesslike manner, Don Hill proved his worth as captain. Rothrock, Hill, and Eaton were clever forwards. Bennett, at center, was the real find of the season and will be a valuable man next year. Simpson, Leedom, and Toll were shifty, hard-fighting guards. Ronianes, Salmon, Gardner, Hosom, and Conroy made up the reserve force. U. S. S.

U. Butterfield, the one hundred and thirty pound basketball team had a successful season in that they tied for second place in the City League and developed several players One hundred seventy-eight CAERULEK25 Y C 130 POUND TEAM who will be available for next year's first squad. At the start of the year the outlook was anything but bright. The City League Cham- pionship machine of the year before was nearly wrecked. Osborn, Rothrock, Hosom, and Simpson were given to the unlimiteds, and Belt, All City guard, was unable to come out because of' scholastic activities. With Scott, Provins, and Don Wilsrxn as a nucleus, how- ever, a smooth-running, result-getting machine was formed. In the early season games, the local lads showed up well, winning all their games in a walk, and the school was confident of the team's making a good showing in regular league competition. .The first City League game was with the Jackrabbits' traditional enemy, Pasadena. The first half was one of' the best and hardest fought exhibitions of casaba skill that has ever been viewed on local courts. The half' ended with the score at nine all. Early in the second half the Bulldog lightweights scored two baskets from the field, bringing the score up to 13 for them, while the Seasiders had only 9. Pasadena then resorted to stalling. Long Beach was completely nonplussed and did not know how to cope with this style of play. They were able to score one basket before the whistle blew and lost by a scant two points. The next game was with Hollywood. The Jackrabbits were One hundred seventy-nine C ERULEKZ5 admittedly off form and lost to the llflovie City boys by a score of 15 weeks gone and the locals, percentage consisting of a large, ugly goose egg, even the most rabid fan was resigned to the fact that Coach Butterfield's proteges were doomed to finish in the cellar. But these same fans had figured without the famous Long Beach fighting spirit. Franklin was next on tap, and with 'cPewee', lllagee hitting on all six, Poly won their first City League game. The Pioneers were next and they received theirs to the tune of 14 to 12. The last two games with Jefferson and Lincoln were Walkaways. Jefferson failed to get a basket from the field. The Jackrabbits were vindicated and finished the season, considered by experts to be the class of the League. lllagee was the most consistent perf'ormer, but was closely pressed by Cutler and Scott. Griffitli Meade was a conscientious and hard working manager.

R. B. Osterholt, had a highly creditable season, making a much better record than their big brothers. Every letter man was back on the squad when the call for players was issued, with the exception of lllagee, who was lost to the thirties. The players as usual were overweight and the long training grind was started early in the fall. In practice games the bubbleweights made the one hundred and thirty pound team look like the remains of King Tut, and it was One hundred eighty CABRULEAQZ . . i, , 110 POUND TEAM thought that these lads would repeat their feat of the year before and walk away with the Southern California championship. Franklin was the first regular scheduled opponent in the City League. They fell as every one thought they would. VVhen the referee finally blew the whistle, the Seasider babes had annexed twenty-two digits to a lone three for the Franklin lads. Not a field goal was made off the Long Beach team. Combs and Richards starred. The next game the local Heaweights had on tap was supposed to be with the L. A. Poly tens. VVhen the Jackqrabbits arrived, how- ever, at the Mechanics, gymnasiunr, it was found that the Poly coaches thought they were to play the-Beach thirties. To make matters more complicated the Mechanic tens were out of town playing another team. There was only one thing to do and that was for Osterholt's players to play the heavier and more experienced team. This they did, and made them like it. The score at the end of the regular period of play was 16 to 12 in favor of the Jackrabbit babes. When one stops to consider the fact that the Poly thirties were leading the City League at this time, he will have a slight inkling of the importance of the feat accomplished by this high calibre machine. The next slaughter to be indulged in was at the expense of the Huntington Park casaba machine. The score this time was 20 to 5, and as usual was on the right side of the ledger. ' c'Doll,' Richards one hundred eighty-one Q CABRULEKZ5 - - was easily the star of this wild west rodeo, with numerous goals from the field. He played an invincible game at guard, for a fellow of his weight. The following week found the same teams deadlocked. This time the local players barely nosed out a victory to the tune of 19 to 18. a The other teams to fall before the onslaught of these doughty little warriors were Compton, twiceg Pasadena, twice, and L. A. High, once. The lo11e game lost was to the Hollywood team. The margin of victory for the Movie City bantams was one lonesome digit. Because of previous defeats the Hollywood bunch was unable to enter the playoff for the championship. The coach and H. J. lNIoore asked permission of the Foothillers' coach to enter the playoff but the necessa1'y permission was not given. Opinion among the sporting fraternity was unanimous that this team was undoubtedly the class of the state at their weight and would easily have won the bunting again if they could have entered the playoff. Considerable hard luck was suffered by this squad all season. The greatest blow was the ineligibility of Boyer, captain-elect of the tens, due to the eight semester ruling. There was always considerable difficulty to get the gym floor for practice. Eldredge Combs was captain of the team and star forward. Leonard Boyer was the student manager. Richards and Newbould played the guard positions and Foster was center. Speed and Ward 1'ounded out the squad. Los Angeles Poly ......... ........ L ong Beach Franklin ....................... .....

Long Beach One hundred eighty-two CAERULEKZY5 TRACK L Long Beach High School this year had the most successful season in track since the days of Earl Thompson and Les VVark. No City League championship was won by the local tracksters, coached jointly by Kienholz and Osterholt, but, neve1'theless, the school had a team to be proud of, both from the standpoint of individual stars and the performance of the squad, as a whole, in dual meets. Patterson Field at Occidental College was the scene of the opening gun for the Jackrabbit briefly clad athletes. Here at the annual A. A. U. Meet, Captain Lovejoyis charges proceeded to win the eight man mile relay in bang-up time, bringing home a silver loving cup to grace Polyis halls. L. A. Poly was the first opponent to meet the locals in a dual meet. Minus the services of Bob Lewis, who was out of school, and George Lewis, who was ineligible, the Seasiders lost the meet by the fairly close score of 68 to 45. The Beach lads were unusually strong in the field events but were n1edioc1'c in the Sprints and distance runs. Pasadena, with one of the strongest teams in her history, took the Jackrabbits into camp the following week, winning the meet by a few doubtful points. The Bulldogs were unusually strong in the dashes, finishing one, two, three in thelhundred and two-twenty. Tandy, Lovejoy, and Jimenez were heavy point winners. i One hundred e1'g71ty-three CAERULEKZ5 Santa Ana was next on tap and the Jackrabbit spike pllSl1C1'S chalked up their first victory of the season at the expense of the athletes from the Orange County seat. The team was a vastly improved bunch and showed unexpected strength in events hitherto conceded to other schools. Sininger showed excellent form in the pole vault and Bennett showed up well in the high sticks. The locals paid Hollywood a call lllarch 16 and were defeated by the top heavy score of 80 to 33. As the Foothillers are considered by competent authorities to be one of the best interscholastic track teams in the United States, the sting of this defeat was in pa1't 1'6lll0V6d. 1 The next two meets were in the nature of a complete vindication for the team, and if any doubt had existed before as to the prowess of the team, it was more than wiped away by the performance of the fleet Jackrabbits in these contests. Huntington Park was completely snowed under by the humiliating score of 89 1-2 to 23 2-3. The opposition was unable to score a single first place. J efferson bowed to the locals in the final dual meet of the season. At the end of the afternoon,s festivities the score board read: Jefferson, 373 Long Beach, 7 6. Lovejoy, Jimenez, and Tandy succeeded in qualifying for the City League meet, and journeyed to Gccidental with high hopes. That their hopes were not in vain is shown by the nine points that this three man team scored, enabling Long Beach to win sixth place in the meet. Tandy placed fiygtin the discus and Jimenez was fourth in the high jump. Lovejoy took second to Hansen, of llffanual Arts, in the half mile run, in one of the 111ost gruelling and heartbreaking races seen in these parts for many moons. A fortnight later on the Santa Ana high school field, the most successful Southern California meet in the history of the C. I. F. was held. Harold Lovejoy made local cinderpath history when he won the 880 in new record time. Lovejoy cut three-fifths of a second from the old record, and is the second J ackrabbit athlete to hold a Southern California 1'6CO1'd in track. This victory was doubly sweet One hundred eighty-four CABRIILEAZZB to Polyls track captain, as he nosed out the very same Hansen who beat him in tl1e City meet. The following men made up the personnel of the team: VVhite, Moore, Bennett, Sininger, Knowlton, Fry, Summers, Jimenez, Rich, Tandy, D. Hill, Martin, Rothrock, Armistead, and Lovejoy. captain. Ted Allen managed the team. XVATER Pl ILO For the first ti111e in a decade Long Beach failed to win a State Championship in water polo. At the beginning of the season, Coach Dutch Miller had three letter men back: Harry Adams, captain, Morley Drury, and Dinnie Evans. The contest with Los Angeles high was the first event held in the high school plunge. At the end of the half the score stood 3 to 0 with L. A. leading, and the first defeat in thirteen years at the hands of another undergraduate institution stared the locals in the face. Long Beach came back strong in the second half, but the game ended with the score of 5 to 1 in favor of L. A. ' Redondo was the next opponent for the Long Beach team and the locals traveled over to the Redondo plunge determined to win. The game was one of the greatest from the standpoint of individual stars and human interest that has ever been seen on the Pacific coast. It seemed as if the entire population of Redondo was out to see if their team could repeat the feat of L. A. High and wallop the .Tack- rabbits. The score at the end of the half was tied at two all. Every- body was wild, for it is a well known fact that the natives of Redondo would go without a week's supply of groceries to witness the defeat of a polo team from the Queen of the Beaches. At the end of the regular period of play the score was still deadlocked at four all. The teams played an extra three minutes to decide the issue, but neither tea111 was able to score. Another period of three minutes was played. without sco1'es. Spectators went wild and several fell in the water. One Hundred 97-gh ty-five CAERULEKZ5 Time out was taken to clear the pool, so the ga111e could proceed. A third three minutes was playedf This time the old fight of the .alma-abbits came to the front and Adams and Evans came through with the needed goals, while the Redondo team fared no better than in the preceding periods. The final score was 6 to 4, and the people of Redondo will have to wait for their celebration. Pasadena took her place in the sun on the following week by trimming the locals to the tune of 4 to 2. The Seasiders were minus me services of two of the regular players. Long Beach won the remaining games on the schedule in decisive fashion. Huntington Park was scuttled, to the score of 7 to 4, in the next fracas, and Inglewood forfeited. The final game was with Holly- wood and the lllovie City athletes bowed to the Long Beach strong men for the first time in over a year. The score was 3 to O. Harry lllaltby, lllorley Drury, Harry Adams, Calvin Strong, John Darby, Vinson Evans, Fred Barnett, James Smith, and VVilliam Parke played on the team. Phil Smith was the manager. ' SVVIMMING Fred H. Fielding, the newest 111an on the local coaching staff, took over the swimming team this year and more than put the water dogs on the map. He 111ade the team the talk of the school,'not One hundred efgh ty-s1'x C ER LEAQZ5 because the boys wo11 any great honors or came out victorious in the majority of the dual meets, but because of the great interest and enthusiasm displayed by the candidates for the team. In years past the interest in the aquatic team has been lukewarm, but this year it was aiyd is at the time Caerulea goes to press at fever heat. The locals were victorious in the first three dual meets in which they participated. Hollywood, Huntington Park, and Inglewood bowed to the supremacy of their Jackrabbit rivals. Harry Adams and Fred Barnett placed in the annual City League meet held at Pasadena. The biggest event for followers of water sports is the annual Southern California swimming 111eet, to be held in the Long Beach High School plunge. llflay 26. Harry Adams, Fred Barnett, and HH1'1'5' Maltby were the sprinters on the team and members of the relay four. Jack Romanes, captain, and Donald Hunter took care of the distance events. John Darbyis events were diving and the plunge for distance. Earle Sullivan was manager. BASEBALL Coach Comfortis baseball team was perhaps the best aggrega- tion of pill chasers to grace the local campus for n1a11y, many moons. The team more than lived up to the standards and traditions of the Jackrabbit. VVinning thirteen out of fifteen contests was the record of the nine, at the time Caerulea went to press. Although practically enough letter men were back to form a team, many of the baseball letter 111en were also l11ClllbC1'S of the track squad. hlany times the two teams had contests scheduled on the same day. Los Angeles Poly, considered by many sport critics to be a leading contender for the City League pennant, bowed twice to the supremacy of the Seasiders in pre-season games. Gray pitched bang- One hundred efghty-seven C. .si . -CABRULEK25 - - up ball and the team played Well behind him. Whittier, Santa Ana, and several of the teams in the municipal league, fell in rapid suc- cession. The locals hit their first snag in a contest with the fighting Irishmen from Loyola College. The team took the field against Loyola with the supposition that the college men would be easy meat. That the players had sized up the opposition Wrong was soon evident when the opposition began clouting the ball to all corners of the lot. With the score hopelessly against the111 the locals fought hard, but the lead was too much to overcome. The first league game was with Hollywood on the Foothillers' field. It turned out to be a miniature track meet. Both sides fattened their batting averages considerably. Gray and White, who took turns doing the twirling, were Wild, and the only thing that saved the day for the locals was the fact that the ltlovie slabmen were Worse. Tl1e game ended 13 to 9 in favor of Long Beach, and the Seasiders were successfully launched on a try for the championship. Franklin High, last year's Southern California champion, was tl1e next hurdle for Coach Comfort's team to overco111e. With the score two 1'uns against them, Long Beach Went out in the fourth inning and sewed the game up by scoring three runs. The final score was 10 to 44. This contest was featured by the heavy hitting of One hundred e1'g71ty-efgfzt C ERULEK25 VVhite and Jones and the brilliant fielding of Captain Bert Hamble. Dropping their first league tilt of the season to Jefferson the following week by the unbalanced score of 12 to 6, Poly's baseballers slipped a cog downwards in the percentage colunm. Poor defensive work and the failure to get hits when they counted most were responsible for the locals' defeat. The team took the field with the following 111en: Gray and White, pitchers, Dillon, catcher, Gohner, first base, Sims, second base, Hamble, short stop, Hill, third base, Jones, left fieldg Elliot, center field, and Scott, right field. SECOND TEAM BASEBALL The Long Beach second baseball team, although only two games were played, developed some stellar men for next yearis var- sity team. As a general rule the 111611 on the second squad were more conscientious about reporting f01' practice than their more experienced and talented brothers, and the success of the first team is due in a large measure to the splendid reserve strength, made up of members of the second team. The team was victorious in both of their contests. The team was composed of Barber, pitcherg Bramble, catcherg Lancaster, first baseman and manager, Hall, second base, Goldberg, short stop, Clark, third base, Holm, left fieldg Gatov, center fieldg and Talbot, right field. TENNIS Under the coaching of K. BI. Barager, the Jiackrabbit tennis team had a successful season. Many excellent players, who will be back next year, were developed. Ed Millett was appointed manager and succeeded in rounding out a well balanced team. i Up to the ti111e of Caerulea's going to press the locals have met One hundred efgfz fy-nine CAERULEN25 ....-..-..... the Hollywood, Franklin, and Jefferson teams. They lost to the Foothiller racquet wielders by the lop-sided score of 17 to O. Franklin won, 10 to 7, and the locals won from the Democrats by the same score. The Southern California meet will be held on the nineteenth of May. After this meet the Jackrabbits will meet Lincoln, L. A. High, and Pasadena in the order named. Miller and Tuthill play the first doubles, Dietrick and Millett are bad news to the opposition in the second doubles. Everett Miller plays the first singles, Robert Dietrick, the second, and Arch Tuthill, the thirdg with VVilliam Babcock and John Hunt dividing honors in the fourth set. WRESTLING Through the efforts of Coach C. U. Butterfield, the sport of wrestling took its place this year as a minor sport. More than three hundred students turned out for the initial contest of the year with the University of Southern California. Out of a total of five matches, two were tied, two went to the Trojans, and one to the Seasiders. Los Angeles Poly, City League champions for the last five years, were the next opponents. The lilechanics Walked away with the meet, seven matches to one. One hundred ninety .4 ggmmm M f Ma W xg Rf A return meet was held with U. 5. C., with the results practically the same as in the first. The only pay contest of the year was held with the local Y. BI. C. A. From a financial standpoint it was an unqualified success, making wrestling self-supporting. The Y won the meet, six falls to four. Next year the sport will last throughout the entire year. A school and college league will be formed. Claude Sweigart, Doyle lVIolkey, Andy Simpson, Fred Cutler, Archie Klapper, Kenneth ltfilligan, Everett Brown, Kendall ltforgan, Lawrence Perrish, and Charles Nicholas made up the wrestling team, Horace Crews was manager. GYM n A gym team was organized -this year, for the purpose of turning the hitherto wasted talent in the apparatus line of athletic work into useful and helpful channels. lNIany first class gymnasts turned out for the team and under the careful training of Coach C. U. Butterfield rapid progress was made. The team participated in four meets throughout the year and made a good record considering the short time that the sport had been in existence. The University of Southern California, Long Beach Y. M. C. A., and the Harvard Military Academy met the One hundred nfnety-one CAERULEKZ5 locals. A picked team Was sent to the Southern California Junior Gymnastic Tournament at L. A. Poly. All of the men on the team will be back next year. An eight team league, embracing both schools and colleges in the Southland, will probably be formed next year. Andy Simpson, Charles Baker, Vernon Jones, Ha1'old Thienhaus, and Charles Nicholas made up the teamg Edgar Mariette was 1nanage1'. i GOLF Golf, the game once played only by invalids and millionaires, was this year made a high school sport. Coach A. W. Comfort first int1'oduced the game into the Long Beach high school when he started the special students playing clock golf. The sport soon be- came so popular that the entire crop of Jackrabbit athletes were playing it in some form or other. Close to fifty students turned out for the team and the competi- tion was keen. In the first golf meet in the history of the school, the Seasider club wielders met the team from Santa Monica and defeated them in decisive fashion, three matches to one. Victor VVilson and VVilliam Pye played a brand of golf that would do credit to Sarazen or Hagen. The next meet was a return match with Santa hlonica, on the One hundred ninety-two CAERULEKZ5 opposition's grounds. The locals apgftrcmtlyf were afflicted with the palsy or some like disease and lost the match, 45 to 0. Hollywood also defeated the Jackrabbits the following week. At the time Caerulea goes to press, several more matches are being scheduled and the team is rapidly improving. The boys who made up the team are Victor Wilson, Williain Pye, Dave French, John Munholland, and Dave Murphy. Dave French also managed the team and is largely responsible for putting this sport on the map. GIRLS' ATHLETICS I Pauline Langston ,123 With an association formed for the promotion of organized girls' athletics and with enlarged gym facilities, the girls, physical educa- tion department has realized its aim of serving a larger number of girls. A section, organized of girls who had shown interest in sports, formed the nucleus of the association. The old custom of giving numerals to members of class teams was abolished, points are now given which go toward a minor 01' major letter. Under the new system, points can be earned in after school sports, in hiking, in leadership, and many other activities. A number of upperclass girls received minor and major letters this year. The officers of the association were Polly Langston, president, Thelma VVallace, keeper of records, and Virginia Peck, secretary. Bliss Clarinne Llewellyn was faculty adviser. A hiking club was formed, with a membership of 59 girls, who hiked a total of 1509 miles during the year. After school hikes and one day t1'ips were taken besides the week end trips. The officers of the club were Elinor Chatiield, president, Lydia Geisler, secretaryg and Bliss Alice Dunbar, adviser. Any girl, whether she could play or not, was eligible for member- ship in the tennis club, since instruction as well as practice was one hundred n1'nety'three s a CAI-QRULE 'Z sa . M SENIOR BASKETBALL JUNIOR VOLLEYBALL Interclass Champions Interclass ChamDi0r1S offered. This proved to be a most popular club, as one hundred girls joined. Student members were appointed to assist ltliss Violet Lacy in coaching the groups, Roberta Taylor was elected president, Juanita Horner, vice-president, and Alda Mills, secretary. The third group organized was the Rifle Club with Captain Percy DI. Vernon of the R. O. T. C., instructor, and ltliss Llewellyn, faculty adviser. The membership of this group was limited to girls in the second period gym class, as that was the only period when the rifle range was available. Long Beach can boast of' three girls' interscholastic teams this year: tennis, swimming, and rifle. The school was represented in tennis and swimming at Pomona College in the annual VVomen's Day program. llleets for the rifle team were arranged with the other schools having girls' teams. Interclass teams were organized in volley-ball, basketball, field hockey, and baseball. Three classes entered the volley-ball tourna- ment. The junior team, which-won the championship, was composed of' Edith and Ramona Brooks, Elizabeth Burcham, Leone Case, Violet lllapes, Diary lXIcSpadden. Genevieve Enzie was manager. One hundred and fifteen girls came out for basketball. ln an elimination contest, the seniors defeated all the other opponents, this being the second year that the class of '23 has won the interelass ' One hundred ninety-four ' C BRULBAQB TENNIS TEAM SWIMMING TEAM championship. The 111en1be1's of the team were Faye Donahoe, Hazel Cailland, Thelma VVallace, Fanny Peters, Jeanette Scharlin, Elma Pritchard, Margaret Ackroyd, Elaine Vivian, Irene Gerletti, Polly Langston. Helen von VVeise was manager, Bliss Lacy was coach. The junior manager was Irma Smithg llfliss Grace Thomas, coach, sophomore 1nanage1', Garnet Rynearsong Bliss Helen Dauncey, coachg freshman manager, Floris lWcGarving lVIiss Llewellyn, coach. Pauline Brown was general manager of basketball. Field hockey was revived as an interclass SpO1't. Instruction has not been given in this sport in a number of years as a larger playing field is required than has heretofore been available for tl1e girls. The interest was keen and a tournament was played by the three upper classes. Since all tournaments were scheduled for the last semester, base- ball was not played off' before Caerulea Went to press. ... z-wwrqig 1 75' 'IJ , one hundred ninety-fvlve Q gg Www-wxss1R1g Q X- l was maxim 454 T CLALIINDI-'XR I C ERULEKZ5 SEPTEMBER 12 As usual-rush with Miss Fox the little ones. for classes protecting SEPTEMBER 15 High Life starts the year with the first assembly.

' CAERULEK25 s uliw ll EM EDIT RIAL Q In dedicating the 1923 Caerulea to the registrar, lllr. Frank G. Reid, the editors feel that his long service to this school and to the students of this city makes the act especially approp1'iate. Mr. Reid, in the service of the school for sixteen years, has been head of the science depa1'tment, vice-principal, and registrar and business secretary. He was the first teacher of science. In fact, for a number of years he was the only teacher in that department. He has been registrar and business secretary of the school since 1917. Holding these ofiices, all the finance, courses of study, scholastic policy, and business of the school come under his jurisdiction. His position is one that requires careful attention and a good deal of hard W01'k. He deserves the tribute as few other men do. Men and schools are prone to forget those to whom are given the difficult and arduous jobs. But little thanks is turned in the course of the year towards those students and those departments who do their work more or less hidden in the obscurity and turmoil of school life. In truth, they never ask for thanks or reward. They are not made that way. In this connection, our attention is called to the print shop as an example of a department which is working for the good of the school as a whole, with but a minimum of acknowledgment from the body which it serves. Printing, as it does, practically all the work for the grammar schools and junior highs as well as this school, it has come to be one of the most important vertebrae of the back bone of the whole school system. It is a pleasure for Caerulea to give credit for the efficient service rendered by this department under the supervision of Mr. Robert R. Lynn and Mr. D. B. Kendall. Two hundred two QM EDIT RIJAL ......r. The student body is on trial! Wo1'd has been passed down that the powers that be have discussed the advisability of permitting Caerulea to have any longer the blank pages for signatures, owing to the crude and rather obnoxious stuff which has been written in some of the books. Let us show that we have the decency to w1'ite only those things which we could show our mother or sister. Let authority have no cause to take away our privilege of signing Caeruleasf, In a word, let's be sportsmen! VVith three new buildings and with the architecture of the old buildings changed to conform with that of the new, the year 1922- 1923 is a milestone in the history of Poly High. As the campus now appears to the passerby, this school is one of the 1IlOSt beautiful in California and in the VVest. As we consider the rapid growth of this school and the standing it now has, a feeling of pride should pass over us which should 111ake us wo1'k to make the school even 11101'C beauti- ful as the years go by. VVith approximately four hundred students, 11131157 of whom we1'e intimates in the class room and on the campus, leaving Poly this year via the graduation route, one is inclined to think rather seriously of the friendships that are made during the years in high school. People are met easily, often casually, in the course of the time spent in school, a large number are fo1'gotten. But there are those students-and teachers too-who are remembered even after your grandchild has cut all the pictures out of your Caerulea. It is the friendship of these students which makes it ha1'd to leave Poly. Caerulea wishes to acknowledge the debt it owes to those students and teachers who have been instrumental in aiding its publication, Two hundfed fllfee CAERULEK25 Vvolcott Noble Sara Allen Editor Organizations Ellsworth Meyer M9.XiHe Henry Debate Stage f Evan Kackley Senior Associate Editor James Sapero Military Ed Kinsey John Hunt Jeanette Willcuts Winston Burbank Organizations Organizations Frances Date Mervin Timm Senior .Tosh Horace Crews Athletics Calendar Caerulea literary prize winners are short story-first, Robert Schwarz, second, Don DeWittg one act play-first, Sara Allen, second, lllary Safleyg essay-first, Alice Gage, sketch-first, Roger VValterhouse.

Next select a spread of butter, meat, or jelly, and apply freely to one side of the bread o11ly. Lay these side by side on a Hat surface, spreaded side up.

Ain't the good old English language, Better than the whole shebang? VVell, l got to thinking over VVhat the tutors sang to ine, And I guess theylre not such dumb bells, As they really seem to be. Guys can sling a hunk of language, In a good old English style, It gets over just as classy, As when using pronouns vile. Birds that mumble lowbrow adverbs, Always use some bughouse phrase, Don't stack up like reg,lar fellers, Whom the English teachers praise. A gink who shoots l1is larynx, In a careless, slipshod Way, Gets the name of being simpleg People brand him as a jay. Kids of mine that use bum languageg Speak in terms that yeggmen use, Stand in line for reformation, Or Iill stroke them with my shoes. Using slang is just a habit, You can drop it if you try, You just imitate yours truly 'Stead of some uncultured guy. -M.
