The drowsy birds called softly to their mates, and a whispering breeze stirred the heavy night air, awaken' ing with its caressing touch the strange, romantic beings with whose stories the legends of the country abound. A narrow band of road skirted the foot of the mountain and ran oil into the night like a silvery path to fairyland. Iuan and Dolores strolled slowly down the road, lured on by the spell of the magic night. Dolores' curly, black head rested on Iuan's shoulder, and Juan, his arm around her waist, was content. They talked in low, dreamy tones. 'fluanito mio, the priest will call the banns for us next Sunday. 'LSL and are you glad, little dove? For answer she looked up at him fondly, and the dimples played around her dark red mouth as he kissed it. They wandered slowly on in silence, then: Qld Soledad gave me a lovefcharm today, my Dolores. It will make you love me always. Do you think a lovefcharm is necessary, my Juan? she questioned teasingly. Why no, of course not, little dove. Then why did you take it, C foolish one? Why, Dolores, you know it is not good to anger a medicinefwomanf' he replied. No-, you are right, my juan. They had crossed the bridge of loose stones over a tiny, gurgling river and, enveloped in the sweet dreams of love, allowed the road to lead them where it would. ujuanito mio, Carmen has a noviof' L'Ah-Carmen? And who is it? Cnly Miguel-and, she added, giving Juan an impulsive hug, 'Lhe is so Hckle, you know. First it was Anita, then lvlaria Rosa, then Marena, Ten and now Carmen. Bah! If I were she, I wouldn't have him: Oh how glad I am, my juan, that you are not like Miguel And I, my Dolores, that you are not like Carmenll' They gazed fondly at each other, and the moon smiled down upon them. They had now reached Malinche Mountain and 1, YV5rfV en'Qi . X jjllijjjlllldgg ullll r iii is IKM, .M i. qi!-fig ai.

La Malincheli' whispered juan, horrorfstricken. La Malinche! Dolores shuddered. How many times she had heard her grandmother tell of this terrible enchantress who had lured men to her cave by her wonderful voice and great beauty, only to murder them slowly when they were within her grasp. juan, let us flee! Come juan! Quick! Quick! But juan did not move. He only shivered convulsively. A strange desire gripped his whole being. He struggled to run to the voice, to clasp the singer in his arms. He struggled against the thought, for he knew to yield to its promptings meant death. Dolores was screaming, pleading with him, but her voice sounded small and far away. Dolores? Yet he must think of Dolores,--he must not go. No, he must not go. njuanito mio, ah come to me, O my love. The voice was very distinct. Every fibre of his being responded. He started toward it,--and stopped. Conflicting emotions struggled with' in him. A soulffilling desire that bade him fly to La Malinche raged against his better judgment, and slowly, very slowly, but with great vivid' ness he could see his better judgment yielding to this accursed longing. No! No! It must not be! He must not go! Ah Dios! He fell upon his knees and tried to pray, but his brain was whirling with images of La Malinche and he could not think. He tried to scream but only a muffled gurgle broke from his lips. A great longing vexed his bosom, and with a convulsion that threw him to the ground, his better judgment wrenched Efeven itself free of his tortured body, leaving him to the mercy of the Voice. My love, it sang, why dost thou tarry? I await thy coming with outstretched arms. I starve because of thy absence. Oh, come to me or I die! Juan rose from the ground as in a dream, his arms extended, his black eyes burning with a fierce love, and started toward the cave of the enchantress. Dolores ran to him,--clung to him, plead with him, tried vainly to hold him back from the fatal snare, but Juan, roughly seizing her by the wrists, threw her from him. She recovered herself, slightly dazed, and again ran to him. With a fierce blow he struck her down. Then he ran wildly, crazily, up the steep slope of the mountain, with frantic haste climbed the side of a small cliff and disappeared into a dark cave about threefquarters of the way up. Dolores, stunned, lay huddled on the ground. Her senses came back but slowly, vaguely. She was laboriously trying to piece together her scattered thoughts. Where was she? Her head throbbed dully. What had happened? The road, the mountain,-everything seemed familiar, but where had she seen it before? She raised her head and looked with apathetic eyes at the thick, white dust in the road. A giant cactus, sheer' ing nakedly toward the sky, caught her attention. Her eyes straggled to the bottom of it. There,-ah-there,-what was that lying in the road? With a queer, hazy smile upon her face, she crawled toward it. She picked it up.-It was Iuan's sombrero. Juan? Ah, yes. Everything came back to her with a rush. She had been walking with Juan, and then,-and -then-La Malinche! Involuntarily she covered her eyes, as if to shut out the terrible scene she had witnessed so short a time ago. Juan,-her Juan was in La Malinche's cave. The thought made her suddenly alert. Something must be done,-and she must do it! A shiver of fear passed over her. She must go to the cave and save him. No, no, she was afraid, she couldn't! She would go back to the village and ask the padre to help her. But Iuan would be dead by that time. No, there was nothing else to do. She must go to the cave herself and save Juan. A cold fear clutched her, and her heart sickened as she remembered some of the awful tales about La Malinche: how powerful and cruelly coldfblooded she was, how she gloated over her shrieking victims down in the depths Twelve of her mountain, and how the only human who had been able to withf stand her magic power, having escaped, had died stark, raving mad in the house of Pedro Alamos. And yet she, Dolores Manello, must face this terrible woman and not be afraid. She found her rosary, and kneeling, began to pray. At first the words stumbled and came slowly, but when she thought of Juan, her lover, Juan, who was to be her husband, Juan, dearer, to her than anyone else on earth, in the power of the terrible Malinche, her panic was quieted by a strong, calm courage, and she seemed to get strength from the words she uttered. When she finally arose from her knees, her eyes were clear, her head was high, and she walked with a firm gait. Keeping her rosary in her hand, she went up the slope of the mountain. She came to the cliff, towering darkly upward, and she hesitated,-but for a second only. The thought of Iuan spurred her onward and she began to climb. She did not pause, but with the easy, natural movements of a primitive woman went steadily upward. Her heart fluttered a bit as she neared the cave, but when she had pulled herself upon its edge her fear disappeared. The thought of Juan was uppermost in her mind. She must save him. Mother Mary, protect him, she prayed silently. Then she started down a dark, sloping passage. She kept close to the rough stone wall, feeling her way, for she could see nothing. The blackness was suffocating. A lurking terribleness seemed to prevade it. Dolores crept steadily onward, her love for Juan overcoming all personal fear, and giving her a courage which she had never known before. Down, down, down, the twisting passage went, always down. Startled bats flutttered by, brushing her with their wings. She did not notice them. The rough wall scratched her hands but she did not feel it. The great hope that she would find Juan led her on, and with every step she took her courage grew. Finally, far down the passage she saw a dim light. She advanced more cautiously, and turning a sudden corner, stood at the door of a great room. Its walls of stone were hung with rich silks and old tapestries picturf ing the sufferings of damned souls in hell. The soft light which suffused it seemed to come from a large, brilliant stone in the ceiling. The floor was covered with thick, heavy rugs. At one side of the room lay a pool Thirteen of blackish water, and near it, reclining on a rich divan, was La Malinche, the powerful enchantress. She was beautiful, yes, but with a repulsive beauty. Her straight black hair was drawn back from the temples and coiled in a loose knot at the nape of her neck, and her eyes were cruel, cruel and fascinating. Her thin lips were curled in an evil leer. She was watching something in the corner with intense interest and wicked amusement. Dolores looked. There, chained to the stone wall was Juan, whiteffaced and trembling. Before him, its tongue darting in and out, was coiled a huge rattlefsnake. Dolores' blood boiled. She stood in the doorway, her curls thrown back, her red mouth set, her eyes flashing, and La Malinche looked up and saw her. For a second she was astonished, but she quickly recovered herself, and the look that she cast at Dolores would have paralyzed an ordinary mortal with fear. But Dolores' great, selffsacrificing love for Juan had raised her above the plane of ordinary mortals. She stood her ground, erect, and defied the terrible Malinche,-a thing of which she could not have dreamed an hour ago. La Malinche smiled evilly, amusedly, and yet inwardly she was annoyed. Enter, fair mortal, she invited with poisoned sweetness. Thou mayest afford me good entertainment later on. Dolores looked straight into her eyes. Woman, she said with terrible earnestness. I command thee to free Juan Villenteslw La Malinche laughed slightly, and sneeringly. Juan Villentes! Ah no, little one, he will be dead before I can free him, and it may be that you shall die too! She uttered a strange call, and the snake stopped menacing Juan, and glided over to her. She petted it affectionately, and rising languidly, walk' ed toward juan. Her eyes were fastened on his with an evil hatred, and as she advanced, she drew from her bosom a jeweled dagger. Dolores, seeing what she intended to do, darted across the room, and flinging herself in front of Juan, suddenly held up her crucifix before La Malinche. The enchantress shivered involuntarily and drew back. The Holy Cross! She felt herself becoming weak, her power was slipping from her. Fourteen 1-l- --Y ---- - She turned abruptly and fled to the pool. Snatching from her hnger a ring, she flung it into the water. .Immediately darkness ensued. Deep rumblings filled the room, and the mountain was shaken from its very base. Then all was ominously still. From the direction of the pool a luminous, green vapor seemed to rise. Gradually it spread over the whole room, giving a lurid glow to everything. In the dim light Dolores could see La Malinche beside the pool, swaying back and forth on her knees and muttering strange words. Then she began to plead. HO Great Green Frog, hear thy servant! For many years she has served thee. Now in dire distress is she, save her! Destroy these daring young mortals Who came with their cross for her downfall, And save her, master, O master! Thy favorite one, save her, G save her! Her voice ended in a wail. She waited, bowed over, and gazing into the pool as if to see her master's answer in it. For many minutes she watched. Then, thinking she saw a shadow, she leaned over farther. It was a shadow,-but it was the shadow of the Gross. With a terrible cry she started upward. The green light had faded from the room. The Green Frog, most powerful of the spirits she served, had failed her! There was Dolores, unharmed, holding up the Holy Gross, and looking straight into her eyes, and Juan, standing slightly behind her, still chained to the wall but in his normal mind, and fearless. No longer did she have power over him. Her spell had been broken by Dolores' great love. She herself could no longer stand against it. She was conf quered, powerless. She, La Malinche, the great enchantress, whose name made thousands blanch, was powerless before two young mortals. She could not endure it! She would not! Snatching up the dagger with which she had threatened Juan, she plunged it to the hilt into her own bosom. She reeled and fell. With her last breath, the chains fell from -luan's hands, the room vanished, and the two were standing outside the mountain. And to this day Juan has seared places on both hands where the chains held him.

They spun and spun from mist of dawn Through the dazzling brilliance of noon Till the sun had setg then into the sky There floated a pale, white moon. But the blue of the sky had not faded, Though the light in the sun was cold, And the spiders' webs of silky white Were tinted with rose and gold. So the moon sailed in from her hiding Right into the web that day, And neither the stars nor the night can steal The captive moon away. fa Q rl X ' X Q A Si WYE? g51A b ',6:,S,'3,:?LrS.:JMl,'3,L0glvg,6:!M WNW EEEEEHE QEQMEL .41 ,S Beside the unhill road of life ' g' Stand fmrie chanels small, Handfwrouqht in gold and faerie gems, Not visible to all.

A high brick wall would hedge in the flower beds. At one end I'd have a wicket gate set in an arched door. Intricate gravel paths bordered with pansies would twist about circles of riotous bloom. Having completed the morning's tasks, I should sit in the afternoons by a friendly window. A comfortable squeak would be the requisite for my chosen rocker. I should knit silk washfcloths with steel knitting needles. For pleasing variety, one pair would be tipped with royal purple sealing wax, another, gay yellow, and the third, cool green. I believe the washclothes ought to be connected with charity work. I'd like, too, a round basket with balls of yarn, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. I'm not certain of its exact purpose, but it would look well. Besides knitting, I should like to read a great deal. I should meditate on passages from Shakespeare and the Bible. For these afternoons I should have three lavender dresses, dimity, dotted Swiss, and Voile. In the grey stillness before evening I'd have a wee cup of tea. Then when I should see the moon, I'd draw the blinds. With a tall wax candle I'd light a fire of eucalyptus wood. It should always be eucalyptus wood. There is something exhilarating about the smell of it burning. Then in the flickering firelight, which I should love so, would come faint forms and faces I'd once known, greeting me and conjuring memories. So I should dream, reflecting on the past, speculating on the future, barely conscious of the present. And I should have an Angora, purring by the fire. Eighteen HHN 1 think of the peace' ful thoughts that came to me before I took up the study of ' KV E LEULA EE ' physiology, and some of the related ologies , I am guilty of sighing for the the days of yesterfyear. It is not right that we should dwell upon the past, 8 8 6 8 6 Q 4 we should keep our thoughts turned ever toward the future with hope and determination in our hearts. Yet when I think-oh, physiology has ruined me! Everything I do, or say, or think, or eat brings up something I have learned in physiology. Each thing I eat I analyze as protein, carbohydrates, or fats, and I wonder whether or not it has food value. Many choice foods have been shorn of their attraction for me just because they have no food value. Lettuce-I've always been fond of lettuce- is spoiled for me, almost. My one excuse for eating it now is that it contains vitamins, even though its food value is nil. And when I wash it I think of all the millions of bacteria that, they say, cover it, then I scrub it until it is limp, thereby ruining it. Then I grow reckless and cry aloud, Come, little bacteriag here is a picnic for you, and I toss a dozen leaves into the salad bowl regardless-I must have lettuce. Tomatoes, the poor things, have no food value either, but-saving grace-they do contain vitamins. Now, to chew mashed potatoes and oatfmeal mush is, to me, a needless waste of energy, yet I know that starches are not digested in the stomach unless they are just thoroughly mixed with ptyalin in the mouth. Even then the action of the enzyme ceases as soon as it is mixed with the hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice. So I say, why not just calmly swallow soft, starchy food like mashed potatoes, mush, cornfstarch pudding, rice, and others, without chewing them? Let the amyolopsin in in the pancreatic juice take care of them. But every time I do swallow starchy things without Hrst chewing them, I open my eyes wide as I wonder what the amyolopsin thinks when these foods arrive with the work of digestion not even started! just imagine thinking of all these things at each bite of potato! It is awful. When we have steak that proves impregnable to our many assaults, I suggest that henceforth we state definitely and positively to the butcher I . .. f c Aman A an I ' . 1 . 1 t I 4 . - 60 an G .V ' A1 15.

I shudder to think of the eightyfiive thousand little worms that may sometimes be in a single ounce of pork meat. As soon as I am up in the morning, I scramble wildly for my tooth brush, thinking of the myriads of bacteria that may have hatched during the night. And to think that some people eat breakfast without first washing their teeth-ugh! The thought of it drives me frantic. Oh phy' siology! I'll soon be a nervous wreck. If I cut a deep wound in my finger, all I can think of, as I watch it bleed, is antithrombin, prothrombin, fibrinogen, and I do not forget calcium salts. I wonder how long the fluid is thromboplastic substance, and when it neutralizes the antithrombin. I am happy when the blood ceases to flow from the wound, for I know the clot has formed and I will not lose more blood. Cf course, in the case of a deep and painful wound it is well to get one's mind off the pain, but think of the agony of mind, working over all those things. Oh physiology, physiology! When I am invited out for dinner and my hostess serves something I do not like and cannot easily swallow, I simply force it down part way, then concentrate on peristaltic motion to help me through the crisis. Cn Thanksgiving and Christmas, when all the good things of the season are assembled, I feel like eating until I cannot swallow more. Then I say to myself, I'Ifmm. Guess my cardiac valve must have paralysis.. My esophagus seems full to the pharynx. Better stop before the food runs over past the epiglottisf' After that, you see, the meal is a complete failure for me just because of my having studied physiology-it is just ruining me! Lf a mosquito bites me, I almost have hysterics for fear it is a yellow fever or malariafinfected insect. Then I proceed to worry about it for fortyfeight or fortyfnine hours, and if I do not at that time have chills or fever, I go peacefully about my duties. But the hours of thinking about the progress of the germ that might be in the body-it is enough to drive me insane. When I have -a pain in my side, I wonder instantly whether it can be peritonitis, and I shiver in apprehension. If my ears ring, I wonder what is pressing against my eutachian tubes. When I pass an unusually tall person, I decide that he had an abundant amount of secretion from Twenty his pituitary gland. When I am very weary and worn out, I wish I could make the adrenal bodies work a bit faster. If I yawn before a mirror-it often happens-I look to see if I may have any inflammation on my pillars of the fauces or my tonsils. When I bump my elbow and make a blackfandfblue mark, I realize that I have smashed some capillaries. In the dentist's chair, when my mouth fills with saliva, I wish we had been equipped with stoppers for our submaxillary and sublingual glands. When the mumps epidemic stalks abroad, I pray that my parotid glands are healthy and well perserved. When I am ill and the doctor comes to feel my pulse, I think of the course of the blood as it rushes into the right auricle, past the tri' cuspid valves into the right ventricle, past the semiluner valves into the pulmonary artery and thence to the lungs. I rest a moment while the blood slowly seeps through the capillaries that are so small even the corpuscles must go through single file. I then follow the blood as it courses back to the left auricle, past the mitral valves into the left ventricle, past the semilunar valves into the aorta. By this time I am so exhausted I do not care whether the blood all goes up through the carotid and sub' clavian arteries, or jumps clear across and comes into the heart again through the vena cavas. The doctor says I am very ill, and I believe him. I am a miserable woman! There are a few things physiology has taught me, however, that give me relief of mind. For instance, now I know why people can eat clabbered milk and do not die, I no longer shudder at the thoughts of it. I know that milk must be curdled before it can be digested and that rennin in the gastric juice is there for the purpose of separating the proteid from the rest of the milk so that the pepsin can change the proteid to peptones and peptids. I am greatly relieved. And again, I am pleased to learn that candies are not merely confections, but they are real foods that produce energy. You would be surprised to know how much energy I need. Yet the most stupendous thought of all is that I have but nicely begun the study of physiology! When I begin to study the nervous system, and the devious workings of that most marvelous instrument, the brain, and begin to learn what there is about it that enables me to Twenty-one think of all these things-I can only babble in incoherence. lviy one hope is that in studying the brain, I may be able to ind something that will help me and let me-forget!

YOE kncow that 4 , ot er i es to see you spic an span. Say, can't you ring off for a while? He asked her the question with a bored frown. You know that I'll do it when the time comes. Yes, when the time comes, replied his sister. When will that be, pray tell? You know that you have to drive the Ford down to the station to get her, and usually it takes forever to crank it. She turned suddenly toward her big, burly father, who stood framed in the doorway. Did you clean the car? she asked. From the top of the stairs came a long drawn wail. Max, Jimmie won't let me comb his hair! Well, she's pullin' it. This from the youngest member of the family. James, mind your sister! Margaret, comb his hair gently. Did you brush your hair yourself? Thus were the commands, questions, and exclamations added to the general hubbub of excitement. Finally peace was restored. Dan had retired to the bedfroom, where a valiant wrestling match with a new tie caused his water soaked pomf padour to be in a deplorble condition. Fourfyear old jimmy, with a well scrubbed, though freckled countenance, sat upon the corner of the wood box, and looked very uncomfortable. Margaret still primped upstairs. I am surely glad that Mother is coming home, sighed Maxine, glancing with a critical eye at her hands, roughened by extra household cares. I hope that she has enjoyed the change at Aunt Emily's in New York, and yet, I'm afraid that all this will seem pretty dull after that. You don't s'pose that Mother has changed any, do you? James entered the room with an anxious frown. I hope not. But Aunt Em has such a big house and so many serv' ants, and a whole month is a long time in which to get used to such Twenty-three things. She smiled suddenly. I guess that we don't need to worry over Mother though. Do you know what Muriel Marne said the other day, Sis? He asked her cautiously. No, what? Muriel Marne was still a novelty in the little town of Marshville, for with her dashing city manners and her flashy clothes, she differed greatly from the usual belle of that small town. She said that the women in New York nearly all smoke if they Want to be in style at all. They smoke cigarettes. His voice lowered to a whisper. She said that some of them didn't like the flavor of the cigf arettes, so they have tiny cigars, or little handfcarved pipes. Dan! Horror was in her voice. Do you suppose Aunt Em smokes? Oh, I guess so. She always did tell Mother that she believed in keeping up with the times and the styles. He flicked a bit of dust from his sleeve with a nonchalant air and strolled out into the yard. A few moments later the sound of the flivver groaning its way out of the yard, entered her dazed senses. Dan had gone after Mother. Would she be changed? Of course not. But Mother, her Mother, had always said, When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Even then she would not continue such a habit when no longer among the Romans, or New Yorkers in this case. Then came the remembrance of an article she had once read which said that the cigarette habit, when once started, was a difficult one to overcome. In a very short length of time she heard the old car rattling its way up the driveway. Little jimmy hurled himself upon the dainty and exf cellently dressed little woman alighting from the car. Yes, the woman was citified in her dress, but it was the same little Mother who had left the farm for her first vacation in twenty years, that gathered her into a strong embrace. It was after dinner that the little mother, her pale blue eyes smiling happily, led her little brood up to the bedroom to see what her suitcase contained. There were gifts for every one. Maxine gazed incredulously at a silver case, much like one that Muriel Marne carried. In it was a cake of oncefforbidden face powder. Mother certainly had changed. Maxine wasn't sure but that it was a likable change though. She fondled Twenty-four a pair of silk stockings happily. Mother had never let her have them before. Some time later she encountered Dan in the hall. He seemed to be not a little surprised and even dazed. Funny, isn't it? he asked. Mother gave me some toilet water. She said that the boys in New York liked to put it on their hair. And did you see her shoes? They had high heels. She always did say that they would ruin one's feet. But then, it won't last long. It did last, however. Mother was cooking breakfast the next morn' ing in a bungalow apron with a shower of pink flowers in embroidery upon it. She had always worn gray calico before. Maxine felt instincf tively, however, that the clothes, gifts of her aunt and the result of long saving on her mother's part too, were in good taste. She looked around brightly as the girl entered. Good morning, dear. How is my little helper this morning? They talked happily together for a long while. Then, out of a clear sky, came the thunderbolt of surprise. Nearly all of the girls in New York have their hair bobbed. I have seen so much of it that I have decided, if you wish, you may bob yours, dear. Your father doesn't care. After breakfast you may get hfty cents out of my purse and go and get it done. It was a very excited girl who went to her mother's purse to get the money which she felt would change her whole future. Almost as soon as she saw the money she saw something else which caused her to jump. In the very bottom of her mother's purse lay live brightly colored cigar bands of-a well known make. To whom did they belong? Mr. Curtis never smoked, and if he did how did the bands from off them get into her mother's purse? She could not, she would not believe anything of her mother on such mere circumstantial evidence. There was probably a very simple explanation of it. Then why not ask her mother about it? She knew that this was one thing that she did not feel like asking even her mother about. Snapping the purse shut, she departed with shaking knees for the barber shop. It was almost noon when she returned from the barber's, feeling like a lamb just straight from the shearing. Her father looked at her often and her younger sister spent the time asking that she too might have Twenty-five such a privilege. Dan alone kept his eyes on his plate after the first glance. The girl felt that he was worried deeply about something. As she was doing the dishes he sauntered into the kitchen and leaning against the wall gazed at her meditatively. Do you like my hair bobbed? she asked. Yes, I guess so. Mother looks awfully well. Doesn't she? Yes Well, out with it Dan. What is the matter anyway? she asked him at last. Nothing . Don't tell me that. Cut with it right now. Well, it's Mother, he said. Put your hand in that apron pocket of yours. She did so curiously. The apron was one that her mother had worn that day. Suddenly she drew forth a brightly colored paper and gasped as she looked at it. Upon it in brilliant letters were the words, Chesf terfields. They Satisfy. It was nothing less than the empty package of cigarettes. How did you know about this? she asked him breathlessly. u. Found it in there when she asked me to hang it up for her this noon.' What does it mean? Oh, I really can't imagine, he replied sarcastically. You mustn't think of such a thing for even a moment, she exclaimed. Well, you don't look exactly happy yourself, he ventured. 'Tm not. I found something today too. I-Ialtingly, she told him of her discovery. Don't dare say a word to anyone about it, Sis, he warned. We'll do a bit of detective work and see if our Mother is-fl The sight of his mother on the porch hindered him from finishing his sentence. They worried along for a week in this way. Dan, ever watchful, discovered but one thing to convince him further of his mother's guilt. He reported this to his sister in the following words: I was walking along in the hall by the door to her room, and when Twenty-six I saw her in there, I thought I would ask her if I could go fishing with the fellows. She was standing in front of her dresser and when I spoke to her she stuck something into the drawer real quick and looked awful guilty. Days passed and the very worried Sherlock Holmes found no further clues. Finally he declared, We'll give her a little more time and then we'll ask her about it. The following day was a great occasion in the entire household. Mr. Dan Curtis was to celebrate his seventeenth birthday. He almost forgot about the great cloud upon his young mind as he devoured a little more than his share of the dinner and afterwards sat down in the parlor to play checkers with his father. His mother sat darning a large pile of stockings. Do you like your tie pin, Son? she asked. 'LI should say so, Mother, was the reply. NI had a terrible time to keep it hidden from you, she continued. You came into the room where I was looking at it the other day and I just had time to stick it into my dresser drawer. I bet you thought that I looked rather guilty. Oh no, he lied glibly, I didn't noice it. Over his father's head he winked at Maxine. Mrs. Curtis had taken her purse from the table and opened it. I just happened to think, she exclaimed, that Uncle Henry gave me some cigar bands for you to paste on that old jug you are covering. She handed them to her son with a smile. He accepted them with a sheepish grin and a lighter heart than he had had for days. Maxine cleared her throat loudly. Two explanations, but what of the cigarette paper? She was not to know that night, nor the next. Indeed it was three mornings later that she was walking with her mother in the front lawn. Her mother walked along slowly, her eyes upon the ground. Suddenly she stooped and picked up an empty cigarette package, remarking as she did so, If those workmen don't stop throwing their trash upon our lawn, am going to hold a private conference with them. I don't know how many I have picked up from here. I put one in my pocket one day and forgot all about it until the other day when I was in the kitchen and I Twenty-seven felt it in my pocket. If any of the neighbors had seen me with it, no telling what they might have thought. ' 'LBut Mother, some of the women do it in New York. Don't they? Smoke, I mean. Ixlaxine looked up into Mrs. Curtis's face. Muriel Marne told me so, she finished. Yes, dear, they do. Many women smoke, but always remember, my girl, ladies never do. And that means ladies in the truest sense of the word. Dan, glancing up from the flower garden which he was weeding, saw his sister softly form the words, Thank goodness, Dan. Mum is the word for always. And he replied, You bet your life. I HOW TO BECOME A SUCCESSFUL POET There are two distinct types of poetry- the type with delightful metrical form and little meaning and the type with deep mean' ing and fierce meter. I present a third type, Roger Waltefhouse which has not only profound meaning but enchanting poetic beauty. Undoubtedly this is the highest form of all three types. Strange to say, by the use of the formula which I print here any one of us can write poetry of the highest order. When Rudyard Kipling and john Maseheld see my formula they will most likely look upon it as infringement upon the venerable profession of poets. Mr. Lesley Bates, the faculty poet, has already demanded to know what license I have to publish such a formula. I answer him, poetic license. The formula is as follows: First, write an essay or a narrative with as deep a meaning as you can devise. Second, divide it into any number of stanzas. Select the number of syllables you wish in each line and mark them off. For instance, if you decide upon alternating octosyllabic and hexasyllabic lines, count off eight or six syllables in each line. Then put parenthesis around the Twenty-efgflt remaining words. This completes the poem. A person reading it fcr the meaning may read the whole compositiong a person reading it for the poetic beauty may omit the words in parenthesis. The following is an illustrative poem of my own composition: IS XVHITE WHITE IN THE DARK? Is white white in the dark when it Qis too, Dark to see whether it Qis white or not?j White is the absence of all colfor and so in thej Dark it might be almost Qanythingj Is green green in the dark? Scienftistsl Tell us that color is fthe reflection of lightj Upon specific backgrounds and Cwhen there isl No light to reflect, green Qmust be something elsej Lovely effects can be produced by putting brackets around the words preceding the parenthesis and writing above them words which rime.

HOW TO RECEIVE A DEMERIT Cne should always receive a demerit slip gracefully. When one discovers that he is i about to receive the little token he should first LIOYC! Halstead smile pleasantly, for all brave men smile at -T c' approaching death. He should then chat confidentially about the weather or any other interesting topic while the teacher is making out the death warrant. Finally when the demerit slip is handed to him, he should laugh gayly and offer profuse thanks. After having performed these prerequisites in the process of ref ceiving a demerit slip gracefully, one should then, for the first time, glance closely at the slip to see how many demerits he has received. If he has been donated three demerits, he should gracefully remark that he had thought that he would receive ten Qeven though he knew that he didn't deserve more than one demeritj. While again thanking the teacher for the demerit slip, one should exit from the scene of his doom talking violently to himself about the injustices of modern educational ideals and customs. A wellfplaced kick at a wad of innocent paper or an unoffending book often relieves one's feelings. Thirty-three AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA :S 4 'II I 5? fa? 5 5.

A. R. U. S.-Boys' Army of the Republic of the United States. QEvery boy has belonged to such an armyj The B. A. R. U. S. was composed of six formidable generals, with my brother, Major General George Washington, as com' manderfinfchief and General Schmit Dirty Face and myself as the least important officers. At the outset of the army General Schmit Dirty Face was given a higher authority than I, but upon my protesting to the home authorities and upon Major General George Washington's being reprimanded for placing a small neighbor boy above his own brother, our ranks were reversed. Upon General Schmit Dirty Face's protesting to his mother and upon his mother's cornering Major General George Washington and explaining that General Schmit, alias Richard, was older than I and that by no means should he be inferior to me, our ranks were again reversed. I again protested to home authorities. Major General George Washington continued to seefsaw our ranks throughout the history of the B. A. R. U. S.. I General Marion, second in command, was continually undergoing spankings from his home authorities. General Wheeler, third in command, was addicted to shouting, You willg will you?

We would march to Aermel McQueen's house, halt and shout our battle cry: Aermel McQueen, He fell on his bean, He ate some icefcreamg He was drowned in the stream, Ch, how does it seem With Aermel McQueen? Then Aermel and his army would rush from the house, and we would turn and run. Overshadowing every great success is the fact that it must some day reach its prime and then start downward. We did not intend that the B. A. R. U. S. should come to the climax of its success until it had at least conquered Mexico. When Aermel McQueen challenged us to a battle in his back alley, we accepted. Although the authorities had forbidden us to throw stones, nothing had been said about the use of clubs. Each general appeared upon the battlefield with a bludgeon in his hand, but when we saw the hosts of the enemy our brave hearts faltered and we beat a retreat. We retreated to our barn. As Major General George Washington had previously padlocked the door on the outside, we climbed through the window and closed it after us. Aermel McQueen's troops laid siege outside the window. During our term of confinment hot words arose between Major General George Washington and General Wheeler concerning the way Thirty-fi ve the army was being managed. I sided with General Wheeler, and when the siege was over we left the army in order to start one of our own. General Benedict Arnold, who seemed to have inherited some of the qualities of that notable man whose name he bore, joined us in revolt. General Marion and General Schmit Dirty Face also turned revolutionistsg and Major General George Washington was left a major general, but he had no army to command. General Marion and I revolted against General Wheeler. General Schmit Dirty Face started an army with nobody in it but himself. Genf eral Benedict Arnold quit. Aermel McQueen moved from the city and the war was over. Peace reigned in the neighborhood. General Benedict Arnold began manufacturing ink from his mother's blueing and placing it on the market at one cent a bottle. Following his example, I started a soap factory, General Marion, General Schmit, and General Wheeler went into the paper airplane business. Major General George Washington startled the market with a wonderful new drink called Perogious Water. Days of adventure and valor had gone for ever. War had made way for commercialism.

Suddenly friend sister, n n un u uunu who is a sophomore, breaks the silence by asking what miserus is. We are about to reply that we don't know and that therels no reason we should, when we are stopped by the realization that we are a senior, and that in itself is reason enough. A senior is supposed to know everything and if he doesn't it is his business to see that nobody finds that fact outg therefore we keep still. 'gHey, you, what's miserus? Is this the way to address a senior? Of course not. We look up and frown our most condemning frown. My child, we reply, my mind is a million miles away. By this we mean that our thoughts are not on such insignificant things, but busy with weighty problems. But we have not considered that she is a sophomore and quite wordly wise. Yeh, she replies, it looks like it. Maybe if you whistle it'll come back for a minute and you can answer my question. What shall we do? Qur reputation depends on an answer. At last we take refuge in that well worn subterfuge that we have learned by observing teachers. If we tell you, you'd forget. If you want to remember it you must look it up for yourself. Which all goes to prove that you donlt know. And with this she looks up the word. Well, we have lost a little dignity, but it can't be helped. We go back to our study of Virgil. After ten minutes' rest the human question mark breaks out again. This time she tries relative clauses, but we take no chances and keep quiet. After repeated questions she sarcastically remarks, Hm, looks like your ears have gone visiting your mind! . Thfrty-seven We angrily choke down the words Shut up and remain silent. After thinking it over, we decide that we'd better attempt to answer her next question or our colossal ignorance will be found out, but her next is absolutely away from the subject. L'Dot Smith said something about you today. Did she? -in our most freezing tones. Want to know what she said? Naturally we do, but it would never do to tell her so. Of course not, we reply. Friend sister shuts up like a clam. Gee, we wonder what Dot did say about us. We really ought to know, because if she said something mean we'll snub her, but if she said something nice, we'll play the part of her best friend. Dot Smith is a sophomore and can ask more questions than an intelligence test. Suddenly we have a bright idea. Do you like Dot? we ask. If she says Yes , Dot will have said something nice, but if she says No , alas for Dot Smith. We are going on the idea that families resent slurring remarks about some member of the family. Sis is too wily, though. Do you? she counters. Why of course! She's an awfully cute kidfl Ch, you don't fool me, my dear, Qemphasis on the dearj speaks the almighty sophomore.

If a body crave a sody, at the student store, Need a body call so loudly that his lungs are sore? Everybody likes a sundx To add a zest to lifeg Yet oh! To get into that store-- It isn't worth the strife. Too many days hath September, April, June, and November. All the rest are long and weary, July and August find us cheery. Thirty X X THE SPIRIT OF THE SHADOW Betty Townsend Across the silver sands of the Sahara A fitful shadow plays, Flashing and darting And sometimes lying still and cool Like a lost thing haunting a loved place. It flies against the whiteness of the Sphinx And lingers fondly near a gray stone pyramid. It passes slowly over the green mystery Cf the Nile, Then waits and waits within the archway Of a temple. Shadow of Egypt, Delighting in love and glory past, You are the glamour of an ancient world. In from the shining, tossing sea Flits another shadow Cautiously, tenderly. With joy its drifts on Where towers and trees and sunshine live. It skims slyly over fresh green lawns And hides in the laughter of the doorways, Then hushing noisy echoes into sleep, lt rests beneath a silvered archway. Shadow, catching at the joy and life of things, True and beautiful, You are the spirit of our Alma Mater. Forty-one Forty-two ll Il ' ':'-11-dIdi3i?iiii4Ew !! , v,u . X ff l, ! . In f ff .

Harvey Vvatson Charles Boren Fred Thon Calvin Flint Betty Townsend MV. Comfort Miss Paine Miss Rau Sgt. Grifiin Cur journey is at an end. Cur caravan, decked in deep blue and gold, is ready to disperse. During the last year of our voyage through treasf ureflands, Charles Boren has been our leader. Fred Thon was assistant leader, Betty Townsend recorded all our achievements, Calvin Flint took charge of our gold. In athletics we had the largest representation of all the classes, in fact, Class A of the first football team was made up mostly of seniors, with Don Hill as captain. We won the Southern California Champion' ship, Class B, with Harry Maltby as captain, came within one game of doing the same. In Class A of basketball were four seniors: Harold Conroy, Hal Eaton, Lynn Hosom, and Lewis Toll, the latter two having made more points than anyone one else in the school. They have starred in all league games. The midfyear seniors, about fifty in number, had a very capable president, Harvey Watson. Two commissions came from that graduated class, Jimmie Adams and Ruth Price, Harry Adams was captain of water polo. Miss Paine, Miss Jessie Rau, Sergeant CriHin, and Mr. Comfort, served as class advisers. Forty-fo ur 'VYYYVYYY YYYY YY VY Y vyyvvv One of the most successful leaders in R. O. T. C. belongs to us, Major Roger Bramble. We are proud of him. The Scholarship Society had the opportunity of receiving great assistance from the seniors, with Jimmie Sapero, midfyear graduate, as president, and the last semester, with Harold Conroy as vicefpresident, while Alda lxlills was president of Student Scholarship Federation of the State. The seniors led, as usual, in percent of scholarship membership. ln dramatics we staged Smilin' Through with the greatest success in the history of the school, the main parts were played by Winifred Nimmo, Clive Schweitzer, jack Sterling, and Harold Reush. The Mer' chant of Venice, with eight seniors taking leading parts, also met with success. The class showed work in debate with Lucretia Smith and Willis Lyman as debaters. The juniors and sophomores were defeated by a unanimous decision of the judges. We unpack our caravan. We offer our treasures to the school. Eazh one goes on his way to join or lead some other caravan. ,.,,. Roma Elhurade Holley is the honor student . . . . and valedictorian of the senior caravan of nine' i E ., teen twenty four. Roma has an average grade of 1.034 for her work during her four years in this school, and is graduating in june with l9V4 credits. She has taken a college pref paratory course and has majored in English and Latin. She not only has been honor student during this last year, but has also served efficiently as Commissioner of Welfare and has been admired for her musical ability both vocal and instrumental. She is a graduate of Daisy Avenue Grammar School. ...i ROMA HOLLEY Valedictorian Forty-five ' 'iv X r www r-V-Y Y Y-Y Y Y - - Y Y- Y Y.Y we II i - -M hiv E1 ri Y f-MU . - u l I I n n l 1 n 1 ' l l l l l l l 'l l l Harry Adams Electiveg Scholarship Fire Captain: Water Polo Senior Play Lamont Beesley Elective Kendall Acad., Tulsa, Okla.

They also had Van Hart playing on the Varsity baseball team, with Ted Burkhart as manager. The girls' athletics were held with great pomp. A large number were out for practice and the games were played with true spirit. The class play, Daddy Long Legs , was met with success by both the students and the townspeople, the players took much interest in amateur work. 4 .Ninety-two IEJWI lull MW WW A q fiiu l H E A Y A - IAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIAIA Spurgeon Finney VVilbur Stanley Lynn Rountree Lavcriic Anderson Miss Cronkhite Miss Hall Mr. Oliver HE class organized under true colors, old rose and gray, with Spur' geon Finney as president.

Revival of the activities of the Poly High School Alumni association, which was started last year when the association was reorganized under the leadership of Clyde Doyle of the class of 1911, has continued through the year of 192924 with a show of everfincreasing interest, which promises to make it one of the strongest high school alumni organizations in California. At the time Caerulea went to press last year plans were in progress for an alumni play and for an alumni banquet, with entertainment fur' nished by the Poly High graduates who are now students at the various California colleges. The Hottentot, given last June by the alumni association, with Verle Albertson in the leading role, was pronounced a great success, and was a hilarious climax for the big reunion supper and business meet' ing which was held at the high school on Alumni Day. Although the June meetings are considered the most important, the midfyear meeting on January 4 was a huge success. Three hundred alumni gathered around the banquet tables in the new reception hall, where supper was served by high school girls under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Moore. In addition to the bifannual reunions, the Alumni association is active in several fields. The work of the educational welfare committee is des' igned to correlate the work of the association with that of the high school. This committee furnishes speakers from among the successful alumni in Long Beach for the various high school classes interested in their work, and endeavors to encourage high school students to complete their four year course by finding jobs for graduates from the commercial department.

Clyde Doyle, alumni president, was principal speaker of the occasion. He said in part, It was Daddy Burcham who helped start the now leading outside activity of this school, athletics. The climax of the cermony was the impressive review by the R. U. T. C. and band, which outlined in uncovered formation the initials of David Burcham on the field. The most inspiring accomplishment of this year vvas realized in the dedication of Burcham Field. And may it be remembered that As an institution is the lengthened shadow of a man, so may Burcham Field project the character of Long Beach Poly High's staunchest friend of athletics.

As governing representatives of the students, they exercised executive ability to a marked degree. The most important project was the dedication of the athletic field to Principal David Burcham. This movement was started and carried through by Commissioner of Affairs james Sapero. Another decision of import was that dispensing with the practice of giving passes for school events to students. A Student Accident Benefit Fund, to be controlled by the principal, was established by the body. A new method of keeping pupils out of the halls during periods was instituted when the system of student hall patrols was inaugurated. A plan whereby each of the larger organizations of school was to patrol a building was worked out successfully by the student executives. A new commission office with new furnishings was obtained soon after school opened. A grand piano for the Social Hall was purchased, and extensive new electrical equipment for the stage was bought. Qther matters taken up were the entrance in the Carnival of States parade of a float, which took first place in its division, enrollment in the A. A. Ug the appointment of a head usher, and the organization of a staff of ushers to serve in the auditorium, and the securing of a special, low rate of transportation for school teams.

The student receiving the highest vote as having served the school most is to receive a ring from the student body, and have his name engraved on a plaque. Olive Schweitzer and Fred Thon were elected to take the places of Ruthe Price and james Sapero, who graduated midyear. Late in the year both Roma Holley, Commissioner of Welfare, and Fred Wilkey, Com' missioner of Safety, were forced to resign because of ill health. Mabel Funk and Calvin Flint were chosen for these positions at an impromptu election. Members of the commission were: Affairs, James Sapero and L. Fred Thong Arts, Ruthe Price and Olive Schweitzer, Athletics, Harold Conroy, Safety, Fred Wilkey and Calvin Flint, Welfare, Roma Holley and Mabel Funk, Records, Miss Vinnie Gee, Fixfofflcio, Harry Moore, Finance, Frank C. Reid. On May 14 the student body elected its commissioners for the ensuing semester. William Fennell was elected Commissioner of Affairs, Barbara Parmley, Commissioner of Arts, Howard Corey, Commissioner of Safety, Bob Armistead, Commissioner of Athletics, and Lois Beatty, Commissioner of Welfare. All of the new officers have proved their sincerity and responf sibility in previous student body offices. Many great accomplishments are anticipated from this crew of workers.

In bringing uniform dress to Poly High the League made a commendf able and memorable achievement in the history of the school. Although the subject of uniforms was at first unpopular and uninteresting, after class discussion and enthusiastic assemblies, the dress question became a serious problem. At election in November the victory for uniforms was surprisingly decisive. gilill ISIWWVQI x IQ an I ll E z 6 lili 57,1 . From the section representatives, a uniform board, which meets every day to adjust cases of violation, was elected. Its faithful service is highly commendable. Of it, Alexa Hulse is chairman, representatives of the four classes are: Alda Mills, Alva Helleckson, Lois Beatty, Elizabeth Bryant, Lynn Rountree, Esther Adie, ldella Seiben. A lovely and most joyous spring festival was given in May. Colorful booths of clubs and organizations were grouped around the archvvays of the south court. Dancing, music, and entertainments were presented with the garden as a setting. Alda Mills, president, Maxine Eliott, vicefpresident, Lois Heartwell, recording secretary, Lois Beatty, corresponding secretaryg and Norma Martin, treasurer. Advisers were: Mrs. Anna M.

A big play day was brought about by the athletic committee, with Fanny Peters, chairman, and Miss Clarinne Llewellyn, adviser.

The May Festival, picturesque and colorful, with the shrubbery and trees on the south lawn as the setting, culminated the year's activities. Booths of great variety and gay description, sponsored by other organizaf tions and clubs, were moneyfmalaing features. Maxine Elliott, newly elected president, was crowned Queen of the May. A fairyflike fantasy, grotesque dances, tumbling stunts, and orchestra music emphasized the spirit of spring. The gala day was free as to uniforms. one hundred five 470 42710 I 474 AEINI K.

C. C. added to its list of noteworthy achievements another well merited, successful campaign. Not confining its work to the school, the body cofoperated with the city in putting over a similar venture. A Friendship Week , sponsored by the organization, made for real brotherhood and created an unprecedented feeling of fellowship among the students. The body served as a nucleus for the initiative proceeding for obtaining a community school bus, such bus to be used for transporting athletic teams, school clubs, etc. Although unsuccessful in getting the bus, the organization, by its influence and action in the matter, secured a much lower rate of transportation from the bus companies handling similar needs of the school. Seeing that a new score board graced Bur' cham Field was one of the particular achievements. In assisting in the hall patrol the members were untiring in their efforts to make that duty reach the highest point of efficiency. Among other benefical and worth' while accomplishments were the installing of a bell in the cafeteria, the providing of transportation for voters at the time of the bond election, and the future acquisition of a Student Body bulletin board. The chapter acted as a host to the San Diego J. C. C., showing them over the school and city, and entertaining them at a banquet. Rollicking in mirth and humor and enjoyment unsurpassed for sim' iliar affairs, the C. C. Vaudevilleu played to a full house. O71-6 111471117861 six J. C. P.

The outstanding accomplishment of the paper was its courageous stand in aiding the state government against High School fraternities. Through wise and judicious editorials it not only awakened people to existing conditions, but aroused them to action, and that High Life's admirable work has borne fruit is obvious. The three journalism classes of Miss Florence M. Carpenter, High Life's adviser, edited the paper. Albert Gustus was editor, with Stanley Selover, managing editor, and Frederick Thon, news editor first semester and Willis Lyman, second semester.

COSMOPOLITAN URELY, no small share of the credit for CLUB the success of the Cosmopolitan Club be' longs to the members themselves, who responded admirably to all calls made upon them. At the first meeting of the year Mr. Garlick and Miss Lamb were selected to serve as faculty advisers. So great was the popularity that a waiting list had to be kept. This condition served as an incentive for the reorganization of the club. As one hundred ten RIC PORTOKIAL STAFF reorganized, the membership is unlimited. The governing body of the club consists of an executive board, which is composed of oilicers and committee heads numbering twelve, together with an advisory council elected from the members, numbering thirteen.

The purchase of more equipment, and the increase of stock in both variety and quantity have made it one of the best and most completely equipped high school stores on the coast. Every indication points to a larger year's business than last year's forty' six thousand dollar total. An average of 2000 tickets daily was sold for the fountain and candy counter alone. A successful change in ticket system was made so that tickets were good only on the day purchased. About 5 5 0 students were served daily at lunch periods. With the addition of a new double fountain along the north wall of the store, the counter space was increased to seventyfone feet. Besides this improvement, an electric marshmallow mixer and five new electric malted milk mixers were installed. The stock was greatly enlarged to permit the erection of several more tiers of shelves. The ticket booths were also enlarged so that the long lines of waiting students were dispensed with. The clerks, under the supervision of Miss Meta Bergen and her assist' ant, consistently increased their efficiency. They held a party in the Pracf tical Arts hall in the first semester, and attended talks by local business men. one lzunzfrerl twelve CIAIGHKING FOI-it 'lil Fred Hesse was manager, Clare Eishell, assistant manager, Lucile Mc' Nealy, student hookkeeperg and Miss Bergen and Miss McKinney, advisers.

JANE HARNETT Mr. Burcham Mrs. MacIntosh Miss Roan JANE HARNETT Realizing that the spirit of jane Harnett and MEMORIAL FUND the carrying out of her plan must be the true ambition of Long Beach High, the students have swelled the Memeorial fund by unselnsh giving and undying effort to per' petuate it for its noble purpose and for the rare woman who established it as this school's means of doing real service. The ideals of the organization, fostered by Miss Harnett's spirit, are that everyone should be educated as a means to a higher, better civilization, not for scholarships sake alone but for scholarship's power over ignorance and the consequent benefits arising from that power. About eighteen students are receiving help now, and the amount of the fund is speeding on to the 510,000 mark. Principal David Burcham is chairman of the committee, Mrs. Margaret MacIntosh is secretary, and Miss Anna Mae Roan, treasurer. All of the various clubs and organif zations in the school belong to the jane I-larnett Memorial Fund and are actively engaged in the endeavor to accomplish its purpose. The Poly Civic Club alone, in a drive during the fall, raised 5900. The P. T. A. gave S5100 to the fund. Last year the Girls' League donated 376, and the faculty, the entire proceeds of their vaudeville. Various school classes give and it is the custom of each graduating class to bequeath whatever remains in the treasury to the Jane Harnett Memorial Fund. Another source has been the individual gifts made by several alumni. one hundfed f0ll7'f661l POLY CIVIC CLUB OFFICERS Confirming and fostering one of its primary motives POLY CIVIC and ideals, that of good citizenship, the P. C. C. at the CLUB beginning of the semester affirmed with positiveness its traditional stand on all school laws by adopting the Declaration of Purf pose . Holding with steadfastness to this, the club was always the first to declare itself and to take the lead in all civic matters. One of the most worthfwhile accomplishments of the club was the adding, through its efforts, of approximately 351000 to the jane Harnett Memorial Fund. Besides this, S18 was appropriated for the purchase of a picture for the school libraryg this is to be a policy of future adminisf trations. The club joined the other clubs of the school in petitioning the Board of Education for a new auditorium, it successfully patrolled the halls of the Science Building without friction and with efhciencyg it cofoperated with the 1. C. C. and Commissioner of Athletics in securing a scoreboard for the football heldg and it investigated innumerable problems of school interest about the campus. The ofhcers of the legislative council consisted of: advisers, Albert Small and C. F. Seymour: and president, Willian Fennell, Ruy Summers, vicefpresident, Ruy Summers, Robert Thompson, recording secretary, Ruth France, corresponding secretary, Elizabeth Carlickg treasurer, Frances Lewis, Calvin Flint. one hundred fifteen FIRE DEPARTMENT FIRE Complete reorganization into the most efficient fire DEPARTMENT department possible in high school was effected by midyear by the Chief and the Commissioner of Safety. The new system has received the approbation of school officials and the city fire chief. The force had 160 firemen and 25 firevvomen in its ranks. The 185 firefeaters compared favorably in speed to any husky Long Beach Jack' rabbits. Numbering of posts and thorough inspection of equipment kept the chiefs busy. The old system was inadequate for so large a school.

The reunion held in the reception hall was a notable social success. All alumni Writers were invited and the custom of heartily welcoming graduates was established. Parties and business meetings were frequent and spirited. An initif ation dinner at the Hob Nob was the first event of the year. Delightful social evenings and the reading of the club magazine were featured monthly. 'LTrinket , Miss Preston's Ford coupe, was lovingly adopted as the official mascot. The membership was restricted to seniors. Dis' criminating tryouts were held throughout the year. Qfficers were: Albert L.

The winning essay is entitled Boy . one hundred seventeen X r ORCH ESTRA ORCHESTRA With the largest enrollment in orchestra Work in the history of Long Beach High, unusually keen interest and correspondingly better results than in previous years were evidenced by the orchestra. Qwing to the number of students enrolled, a second or prep orchestra, numbering fiftyfone, was organized. The group distinf guished itself especially by providing music for the junior play. The Hrst orchestra, composed of sixtyfnine advanced students, besides playing at all school functions, such as the senior play, presented an entire evening's program and an assembly concert. A new step taken by the organization was the presentation of concerts in the high schools of South' ern California cities. It received the highest commendation for appearances at Torrance and Anaheim. With the approval of the Board of Education, George C. Moore, director, has equipped the orchestras with complete symphonic instrumenf tation. It is largely through the constant endeavor of Mr. Moore that these groups have attained such a degree of finish. MASQUE AND Poly's young limelight luminaries were much in def SANDAL mand this year. No less than twelve onefact plays were produced under the direction of Miss Lillian V. Breed, adviser. Qther clubs of the school found that productions by the One hundred efgfz te en MASQUE AND SANDAL organization were the greatest moneyfmakers for pay assemblies, conse' quently four benefit assemblies by Masque and Sandal were given. Members of the dramatic society led all others in carrying off parts in other productions. The club was well represented in both class plays. Interest in dramatics was kept at a high pitch through the indefatigable enthusiasm of actors and adviser. Coveted memberships numbered more than twenty by the end of the season. Cut of this group, several developed an almost professional finish. Miss Breed was an untiring guiding genius even in the face of occasional artistic temperament. Officers of this histrionic organization were: president, ,lack Sterling, vicefpresident, Harold Mitchell, secretary, Winifred Nimmo, treasurer, Clive Schweitzer, adviser, Miss Lillian V. Breed. Ten of the plays presented were: The Trysting Place, The Lost Silk Hat, Why the Chimes Rang Cut, Nevertheless, Maiden Over the Wall, Fan and Two Candlesticks, The Flittermouse, The Casket Scene from Merchant of Venice, The Very Naked Boy, and Tear Fairies. The last two plays were given under the auspices of the Writers' Club and the Cwls' Club, by Masque and Sandal. The Tear Fairies, a delightfully whimsical play written by Betty Townsend of the Writers' Club, is the prize play selected for publication in Caerulea. One hundred nineteen BOYS' GLEE CLUB BOYS' Departing from the established custom of giving an GLEE CLUB opera, the Boys' Glee Club, in conjunction with the Girls' Glee Club, gave instead the cantata, The Rose Maiden , at the first Christian Church. Besides giving a very creditable Christmas program, singing at the Institute on December 17, for Scholarship januf ary 9, and at both graduations, the club has entertained the student body during the year at various assemblies. The club has practically standardized the pin and constitution, having adopted the same as those last year. The club was headed by Wendell Iones, president, Eugene Gregson, vicefpresidentg and Foster Rucker, secretaryftreasurer. Members included: James Adams, Earl Bathurst, Marion Brown, Gene Coombs, George Clark, Roland Cochran, Earnest Duke, Paul Frame, Gero Galbreth, Richart Gaunt, Donald Gilkerson, Eugene Gregson, Milton Hand, Martin Heflin, Hal Hubbard, Reed Harion, Carroll Hotzell, Gordon Hypes, Wendell jones, Mason Knight, Maynard Medden, Harold Mosher, George Morlock, Henry Noreck, Carlyle Nichols, Berrien Powell, Mason Ratekin, Iason Ratekin, Foster Rucker, Rolland Taylor, Theodore Smith, Ray Teeple, Frederick Thon, Roger Walterhouse, Ered Wilkey, Roger Williams, Ralph VJ ood, Ralph Wark, Charles Way, Ernest Wonder. one hundred twenty I 1 I .

Excursions, lectures, and parties proved to be enjoyable activities. Talks by authorities on prints and interior decorations were secured and presented for the art department by the club. Exhibits at Expositi-on Park were viewed with enthusiasm. Costume parties, for which original costumes were required, were given at Christmas, on Valentine's Day, and at Easter. Always delightf ful were the trips to Laguna Beach and Point Firmin, while afternoon calls one hundred twenty-three THUIVIB TACK CLUB SPANISH CLUB at local studios, where many former Thumb Tackers are becoming success' ful, afforded variety and pleasure.

A banquet, governed by French table etiquette, and at which French songs were sung and the play, Les Martins au Restaurant , was presented, furnished a delightful time. COMMERCIAL Since membership is extended to any one who takes CLI-IB at least two commercial subjects, the Commercial Club is one of the largest organizations in school. The main object is to foster acquaintanceship among the commercial students. Besides this, it endeavors to get students in better touch and closer relation' ship with the business world, and to help them get positions when they leave high school. A rather pleasing and original feature of the club is the fact that no dues are charged. Among the interesting speakers who spoke at the trifweekly meetings were Mr. Duncan, noted advertising man, R. C. Baldwin, Clyde Doyle, Lynn Ballard, Graydon Hoffman, and Howard Deems. At a Valentine Banquet the members indulged in a three course dinner and an altogether hilarious time.

An elaborate conclusion of the club's activities was a banquet at which a Roman wedding was featured. CAFETERIA Serving practically at cost the best and most nutritious food to make up a well balanced meal, and with daily change of menu, the cafeteria service of the high school was of such nature as to make one justly proud. Although complete in equipment through the addition of cash registers, a cook's table, a bakery table, electric mixer, bread slicer, steam table, and pastry rack and table, still an overwhelming handicap of poor and inadequate buildings hindered the management from giving the service that it is capable of giving. The receipts to the hrst of April amounted to 337,105 .33, while the expenditures totaled S535 ,5 53.44 All profits revert to the improvements of the cafeteria. one hundred thirty CAFICTERIA Those in charge were: Miss Hazel J.

Triangle suppers were a big feature, as were talks on psychology, community service, and human interest. Parties for all Y. W. C. A. groups were held each month, and trips to Baywood Lodge, the HifTri cabin, were popular. Interesting entertainments were, Ye Village Fair, a Father and Daughter Banquet, and a Hallowe'en hay ride.

Handling everything from jewelry to books and LOST AND clothing with an efhciency deserving of the utmost com' FQUND mendation, the Lost and Found, in charge of six girls during periods 1, 2, 5, 6, 8, 9, experienced a very busy year. All articles not called for within thirty days were returned to the finders if they called for them. All the clothing was sent to L'The Social Welfare, and those books not called for were returned to the book room. All other uncalled for articles were sold at auction. This netted fifty dollars. Under the leadership of W. P. Rankin, the AST RONOMY Astronomy Club launched its drive to obtain the best' CLUB equipped high school observatory in the world. A sum of 318,000 by popular subscription is the club's goal. A twelve inch refracting telescope with the most modern manner of adjustment and newest equipment, and a library of astronomy are to be purchased.

How often we have heard this phrase. In classes, in bleachers, all over the campus we meet it. What is this Spirit of the School? It is the big, moving force in this institution, the very essence of the school life. It has been the inspiration for the finest acts in this school, for the accomplishment of real worth and lasting good. Why do students and teachers sacrifice their time and pleasure and give themselves vvholefheartedly to activities that will increase Poly's prestige and bring her further honors? It is because they are responding to the Spirit of the School. It is hard to analyze this something that pervades the institution and makes us one, nevertheless there are some outstanding characteristics which we point to proudly. Loyalty and Enthusiasm and Earnestness and Humor and Idealism,-all are factors of this great force about us. It is to this beautiful, inspiring spirit that we dedicate our Caerulea.

Bailey we wish to extend some slight measure of our appreciation. She has done much to give Poly its high ideals and its standard of scholarship. At the same time she has given us a wonderful example of democracy and of love of mankind. To her we feel that we may turn at any time and receive help, given with sincerity and kindness. Emerson says, An institution is the lengthened shadow of a man. Poly is coming more and more to be the lengthened shadow of this woman. Poly is outgrowing her old shell. VV e have watched her enlarging and adapting herself to new buildings and grounds. But while m-ost things in this large institution have kept abreast of the times, there are two back numbers that are greatly hampering the efficiency and the comfort of this school. one hundred t7u'rty-seven r THIS IS THE PRESS THAT PRINTED CAERULFIA First, there is a great need for a new auditorium. A student body of four thousand and an assembly hall with a capacity of fifteen hundred! The idea is preposterousg yet such is the case. Even worse is the tiny, inadequate stage. If it is impossible to get a new auditorium in the near future, we certainly should have a much larger and better stage. Cther high schools, lesser than Poly in every other way, boast stages far superior to ours. Qur need is great and it should be satisfied at once. And secondly, our cafeteria building fails to accommodate us any longer. The managers of this branch of the school have served us to the best of their ability, hindered as they have been. In view of what they have done in such a poor building, we see great promise of the wonders they could bring about if they but had a fine, new, adequate home. The class of June, 1924, is leaving school five hundred strong. Poly looks upon these, her children, with pride and love and bids them go forth to meet the world, feeling sure that they will uphold the true standards and precepts which have been given them within the portals of Long Beach Polytechnic High School.

I don't see how she can accomplish so many fine things on short notice. December 4-Mr. Walton spoke on tobacco. He said the funniest verse. It went somewhat like this: If Dame Nature had intended when she first invented man, that he parade this vale of tears, puffing smoke from his nose and ears, she'd have built him with a stove pipe, a damper, and a grate, and he'd have had a smoke consumer that was strictly upftof date.

Willie Ainlee, the dumbell, adored, praised, and admired by the uncle, and loathed and pitied by Kathleen, was the anxious and dejected sweetheart of the Irish maid. Clifford Smith portrayed this character. Jeremiah Wayne, the villain, was taken by Ted Ix4cCuire. His son, Kenneth, was the soldier lover of Kathleen. Harry Adams played this part most sympathetically. Joanna Paine portrayed the part of Moonyeen's sister with grace and dignity. The maid, Martha Jones, was the mainstay of the family in their times of need. One Yzunclrezl forty-five Miss Lillian V.

The battalion was formed into three companies and officers and nonfoommissioned officers appointed in record breaking time, owing to the effort of Capt. P. MCC. Vernon and Sergeant B. H. Griffin, assisted by Sergeant Fitzgerald. Early in the year Capt. Vernon was transferred to Los Angeles and was relieved by Capt. james C. Gunn, from the University of Washington. As an expression of the gratitude for the services of Capt. Vernon, the unit presented him with a traveling bag. A new era in the history of the local unit commenced on the first day of the arrival of Capt. Gunn. The first semester was carried to a successful close under his supervision. During the new semester it was announced after a conference with the Credits Committee, on the request of Capt. Gunn, that an additional fourth of a credit would be given to men showing the greatest interest and aptitude in the work. Headquarters of the ninth area granted the local unit special per' mission to hold retreat at three o'clock. Later in the year the Girls' League took charge on Wednesday. The battalion participated in many parades and took a leading part in the dedication of Burcham Field. one hundred fifty-two 'HONORARY OFFICERS A giant Held day was held in the latter part of May. Merchants and clubs of the city offered awards for the various successful organizations in the battalion. The results of the company competition were as follows: B Company, under Capt.

Robert Thompson Jr., American Legion Cupg Color Sergeant Chester Kent, NonfCommissioned Officers' Cup, Private Archie Kain, Privates' Cup. ppp A military class was organized and many subjects of great interest to the advanced students were taken up. Among them were map making, scouting and patrolling, and signalling. The year nineteen twentyffour was a great one for the R. C. T. C. for many reasons. The unit came to the front in the life of the school. Increased interest in the work of the battalion gives hopeful promise of a large organization next year, one which will be more in keeping with the size of the school.

A Company prof gressed rapidly during the last semester and showed the entire school what an organization with cofoperation between oilicers and men could do in the line of general efficiency. one hundred fifty-four 1 CCMPANY began to make prof gress from the very first day of drill. Under the command of Capt. Herbert Taylor such a degree of perfection in drill was attained that the other organizations found difficulty in keeping up with it. Capt.

Since that time the organization has advanced to one of the first places in the school. The spirit of comradeship which sprang up among the oiiicers did more toward making the work of the unit a success than anything had ever done in the past. Capt. James C. Gunn, the adviser of the club, through his staunch support, assisted the members at every turn, and through his efforts many of the rough places in the road to success were smoothed over.

Schuettner ln attempting to obtain desirable physical development in educational institutions, one frequently considers only the obligatory requirements laid down by the school authorf ities in this branch of general education. An incentive should, however, be placed before the students to attract them to voluntary activity and stimulate interest not only in one or two kinds of work but in allfround physical activities. The lowest margin of this attractive stimulus should be fairly within the reach of the average student, then a gradual scale should be established through which he must advance step by step, and finally there should be a definite goal, not easily attained, but within the reach of a student willing to apply himself. It is a well known fact that the average boy is inter' ested in one kind of physical education and devotes most of his spare time to this or games allied with it. The result is that he handles himself poorly in other physical activities. lf he specializes in gymnastics, he seldom has fair ability in water sports, field, or track events. A plan to stimulate voluntary allfround physical development should greatly assist in achieving the desired aim of well balanced physical ability. I present a plan of this kind. It includes all branches of physical education, awards an emblem for the fulfillment of moderate requisities in a novice division, and has a gradual scale of five other divisi-on emblems which the student must acquire before he finally reaches the seventh, or highest, award-a fourfstripe honor division emblem. Although this system was started late in the year over eighty boys will receive letters.

She has been honored because of the wonderful sportsmanship that her teams have shown, and feared because of the fight the men of the Green and Gold always put up. Last season the C. I. F. formed a league of the best teams in the South and named it the Coast League. Long Beach was numbered among the mighty. The jackrabbits went through an exceedingly successful season. When the first call for football was made, over two hundred men turned outg but among that splendid showing only seven letter men from the year before could be found. With just green material Coach Arthur Schuettner went to work to turn out a football team. The coach attribf utes a great deal of the season's success to the fact that he was hindered at practically no time by the ineligibility of his men. This was due to the splendid work done by the student tutors for members of the team who were poor in scholarship. This plan was arranged by Mr. Charles F. Seymour of the California Scholastic Federation. Morley Drury was the mainstay of the teamg every man on every opposing team was after him, and in the course of the season Morley took punishment that no man but one who was made of AllfAmerican stuff could take. When Drury left the school to take a preparatory course for U. S. C., Long Beach High lost the best athlete ever turned out in the Southland.

During the Hrst half Long Beach had the freshman beaten, but Evans and Drury were injured in the second periodg after which the Californians started to add up scores. Evans' kicking and Drury's plunging were features of the game. U. S. C. FROSH, Zig LONG BEACH, O With the team hardly recovered from the Cal. Frosh game, the jack' rabbits met the Trojan babes in the Los Angeles Coliseum and came home defeated. Coach Schuettner was content to accept defeat because of the fight that his men showed all the way through and because the game did not count against the league standing. Captain Don Hill starred in this game. SANTA ANA, Og LONG BEACH, 6 Santa Ana and Long Beach met in the first league game of the season on the Saints' field. Both teams were evenly matched, but the Long Beach line was charging just a little better and opening up better holes. Only one touchdown was made and the game was in the balance all of the time. Wendell jones and Morley did some clever playing. Corwin Art' man shot the ball back nicely on offense and was the well known stonef wall on defense. One hundred sixty-five v VVIIITE EVANS TANDY ARTMAN BOREN FULLERTON, O, LONG BEACH, 42 Fullerton came down to Long Beach doped to go home with a victory tucked under its arm. Either Lady Luck or the Fates played them a trick, for they never had a chance after the first whistle hlew for the kickfoii. SHERMAN INDIANS, 13, LONG BEACH RESERVES, 7 The Indians are known and have always been known as the hardest hitting team on the coast. Coach Schuettner did not want to get his Varsity men injured for the rest of the season and as the game didn't count on the school's standing, he sent in a mixture of reserves and second team men. The Indians put up a fighting game. Chief Penn stood out against the men of his own race with his line plunging and sensational tackling. Danny Schact was down under the kickfofls like a flashg his line work was also good. SAN DIEGO, Og LONG BEACH, 26 Although the game was in San Diego, which is over a hundred miles distant from Long Beach, the Jackrahbits played before more than seven hundred local rooters. The Border City men were conhdent that they could run rings around Coach Schuettner's men, but the jackrabhits gave them an easy trouncing. jack Elliott, the diminutive halffhack, starred for the Green and Gold. Galindo starred for the enemy. One hundred sixty-six PENN RICH DRURY HULEN HAND PASADENA, 9, LONG BEACH, 13 The old story about when Greek meets Greek is also true about Pasadena and Long Beach. The Red and White team would give any' thing in the world to beat the Jackrabbits. No matter how far down on the league standing the two teams are, the PasadenafLong Beach game always brings all of the old time fight and rivalry back. G'Conner of Pasadena stood out above his team mates for fight and good playing. Les White deserves the credit for winning this game. A Pasadena man had scooped up a fumble and had a clear field in front of him to go for a touchdown. Les White ran nfty yards in the best time he ever made and tackled the man with the Red and White sweater just a few yards from the goal. A SANTA MARIA, Og LGNG BEACH, 39 The Santa MariafLong Beach game was an easy victory for the Jack' rabbits. Although the score of the game will be forgotten, the Long Beach players will never forget the wonderful sportmanship and friendly spirit shown by the Santa Maria team and students. Many of the subs starred in this game. SWEETWATER HIGH, 7, LONG BEACH, 25 This game was one of the gridiron track meets that sometimes happen, but considering the size of the town that sent the team, the Sweetwater One hundred sixty-seven PARKE FRY SCHACHT ELLIOTT JONES boys did well. jones again went wild in this game and won the applause of everyone, Drury and Hill ran the interference. GLENDALE, 8, LONG BEACH, 15 Owing to a little overconfidence retained from the Sweetwater game, Long Beach almost took a beating at the hands of a far inferior team. The Jackrabbits started out very well at first and made the score 15 'O in their favor at the end -of the half. When the whistle blew for the kickfoff at the start of the second half, the Glendale squad seemed to be made of new men. Don Hill tried his best to get through the line but he was stopped every time, even Drury was helpless. The Glendale team completed the longest forward passes used against the locals during the season. Leedom was on hand and picked up a fumble back of his own goal, which would have meant a touchdown for the other side, and ran it back to safety. Hill and Drury were the backbone of the squad. BAKERSFIELD, 20, LONG BEACH, O Too long a season is the only excuse that can be offered for the defeat of the Jackrabbits at the hands of the Bakersheld team. The locals were stale from too much training but Bakersfield was just warming up. The effect of the Gal. Frosh and U. S. C. Frosh games was apparent on the Jackrabbits in this game. The Bakersfield team had been playing a few snap games and were feeling right for a hard scrap, while the locals were one hundred sixty-eight v BOURGEOIS DRAKE BENNETT LEEDOM GOLDMAN worn out. Bakersfield stopped Long Beach on the road to a state Cham' pionship. Drury, Evans, Hill, Jones, Hand, and Hulen all played stellar roles. Artman did the best snapping of the year but was unable to keep the enemy from getting through. Hulen was elected captain of next year's team by a unanimous vote. With the number of letter men that will be back next year, Long Beach should do well. In the middleweight class Long Beach had one MIDDLEWEIGHT of the best working machines in the south. Coached FOOTBALL by C. U. Butterfield, these boys seemed primed for the Southern California title. The Long Beach middles went through their own league without a defeat and won over the best team in the Crange Belt but suffered a lot of hard luck in the final game with Huntington Park. This year's middleweight squad corresponded to last season's 130 pound team, the eligibility rules this year allowed the men to be a trifle heavier. Captain Harry Maltby called the signals and led his men like a college quarterback. HUNTINGTCN PARK, 185 LONG BEACH, 0 This was the first practice game of the year. Though the Jackrabbits had had barely time to get started, the boys made a good showing. The Parksters played a superior game. One hundred sfxty-nfne w WEN SECOND 'l'E.-XM FOOTBALL SAN PEDRO, 6, LONG BEACH, 7 In the second practice game Long Beach had a close call. The Pedro squad had the best string of middlevveight boys in several years and came within one digit of tying the Green and Gold team. SANTA ANA, 7, LONG BEACH, 21 The opening game of the league was with Santa Ana at Long Beach. The Saints went back with defeat. Norton and Thon shone out in wing Work. Brumwell proved an invincible battering ram when the locals were close to the goal or needed a few yards. SAINT ANTHONY'S, Og LONG BEACH, 27 Feeling the need of a little practice tilt, the Iackrabbits took on the team from Saint Anthony Academy, who gave them a good fight, but put up a losing one. Sandy Murray and Kenny Milligan did good work at the tackle positions. FULLERTON, 6, LONG BEACH, 7 Fullerton almost defeated the Long Beach boys, but much as in the San Pedro game, a little drop kick over the cross bar again saved them. The Fullerton boys were fully primed but a little fancy running by Maltby and some nice interference work by Maloney helped the locals. Williams kicked the goal. One hundred seventy INHDIJLEVVIGIGHT FOOT IZA lil, WHITTIER HIGH, 75 LONG BEACH, 27 Long Beach was well on her way to the championship of the league, and with the confidence received from the games already annexed, the Seaf siders went into the Whittier team and swept them off their feet. Standlea held down an end and grabbed some passes that seemed lostg he also made some nice tackles. Hall at center snapped the ball right where the backs wanted it and then tore a big hole through the center of the other team's line. Maltby kept the Poets guessing with his signal calling. HUNTINGTON BEACH, 13, LONG BEACH, S4 The game itself resembled a track meet, with Long Beach featuring in the sprints. All of the backfield men and several of the linesmen hung up goals. The Huntington Beach boys played well. Their tackling was good and every one of them showed wonderful sportsmanship. PASADENA, Og LONG BEACH, 0 As far back as the followers of Long Beach High athletics can rememf ber, Pasadena has always been the one team that the locals were out to down. Both teams opened up their bag of tricks, which proved harm' less against each other. Both of the lines held only short gains, which were made by the backs on either side. It was the closest game either team had all season. One hundred seventy-one ANAHEIM, Og LCNG BEACH, 13 The Long Beach team was on top of the world, for with the Anaheim game they entered the semifinals. Everything looked rosy for them after they had beaten the Anaheim team by two touchdowns and a field goal. Bixby took Brumwell's place at full and did some good line plunging and tackling. Maltby led the enemy a chase with his running. Iensen took Hall's place at center, and Hall went to a guard berth. HUNTINGTCN PARK, 40, LCNG BEACH, O Having played with Huntington Park once, the Long Beach boys had no fear of them, for they had the Parkster's game all figured out and knew how to meet it. Cverfconfidence wrecked the hopes of the locals. LIGHTWEIGHT For two seasons the Long Beach midget football FOOTBALL team has carried off the Southern California chamf pionship. This season the lightweights were put into a league made up of the strongest teams in the south. Coach Csterholt and Shorty Kellogg deserve a great part of the credit for the wonderful record the boys made. These two men molded the boys into the machineflike team they were. y LCNG BEACH, 3, EULLERTCN, 0 The Fullerton boys were primed, and gave the Long Beach team one of the hardest fights of the season. Pete Elliott hrst shone out in this game. He made a couple of sensational sprints with the ball under his arm. Van Every and Bayne, the two wingmen, did some stellar work on the kick off and in interference work. , LONG BEACH, 135 PASADENA, 12 This return game almost sent the locals to the bottom of the ladder. Long Beach was defeated the first half. In the second period Al Maloney went in and made the touchdown that saved the day. This was the closest game of the season and every man on both teams was fighting for all he was worth. The line did some wonderful work and every man con' tributed to the victory. The Jackrabbits were then in the running for the Southern California flag. A One hundred seventy-two l L1GH'l'VVI'IIGII'I' FOOTBIALL LONG BEACH, 13, HUNTINGTON BEACH, 0 Although Long Beach won the game, they deserved to be beaten by this team. No football team in Southern California ever played under greater difficulties than the Huntington boys. Their suits were in tatters and most of them were wearing civilian shoes. The little quarter back had a pair of first team football shoes, but they were so big that he was forced to wear a pair of tennis shoes inside. With the two pairs of shoes, he romped away from the field, and only the Long Beach safety man saved him from making a touchdown. In this game Jimmy Logan took his stand at quarter to replace Nelson, who was taken out because of injuries. Logan played as heady a game as any college signal caller. He broke through and made several long runs. Al Maloney also came in handy with his irresistible line plunges and his open field running. LONG BEACH, 25, GLENDALE, 0 Before the biggest crowd that ever witnessed a lightweight football game, the Bunnies won over the Glendale babes for the Southern Calif fornia championship. Elliott did remarkable work. The whole team was working like magic and the interference was never timed better. From the starting whistle, the Glendale boys had no chance. All of the subs had a chance, for as soon as the locals took the lead, Coach Osterholt gave the other boys a chance to make their letter. This game ended another entirely successful lightweight season and helped Long Beach keep her place in the sun. One hundred seventy-three i ima 4 ' iii V , n VARSITY BASKETBALL TEA'M Although winning only two games out of five league games that were scheduled, the ,lackrabbit casaba chasers finished third place after a semi' successful season. Only three letter men were back for the team and the quintet was built around Toll, Eaton, and Leedom. Leedom was captain, and Howard Corey, manager, while Fred Fielding did the coaching for the local boys. Two practice games were held before the regular schedule, Long Beach losing both, one to La Verne and one to Jefferson Santa Ana was the first opponent of the local five, the game being played at the home court. The Jackrabbits emerged victors by a score of 28 to 11. Toll and Dillon showed up well in this encounter, while Conroy did excellent work on defense. Strengthened by their hrst victory, the local players journeyed to Fullerton strong favorites, but came back on the short end of a 20 to 15 count. Toll was the only local player to do much in this game, while Dowling of Fullerton plowed through the lackrabbit team continually. An outdoor court handicapped the locals, however, and a game on an inside court might have brought a different story. Whittier was the next team to defeat the Jackrabbits, winning by the decisive score of 21 to 8. McCaslin had an easy time shooting baskets for the Quakers while the only Jackrabbit that had an eye was Toll. One hundercl seventy-four The next game with San Diego was in one way the biggest game, as the Hilltoppers have always been deadly rivals of the Iackrabbits. After a fast game the locals won out in the last few minutes by 23 to 18. Toll, Hosom, and Landis starred on the offense in this tilt, while Conroy and Leedom did some good guarding. Johnson of San Diego starred for the enemy. The last game of the season was the PasadenafLong Beach game and one which will not soon be forgotten by local fans. ln the first half Long Beach did not have a chance, taking only '7 points to the Millionaires' 16. In the last half the Jackrabbits scored 12 points to the enemy's 8 but could not quite overcome the large lead of Pasadena. Toll, Eaton, and Conroy played good games for the locals while Mittens, Vincenti, and Clark were doing stellar work for Pasadena. A few minutes more would have made a great difference in the score but the last whistle blew just as the jack' rabbits started to play. Toll, Dillon, Hosom, and Conroy, played regularly for Long Beach while Eaton, Lancaster and Landis did the sub work. Toll garnered 32 points during the season while Hosom made 20 digits. Coach Fielding and the entire team deserve great praise for their work thoughout the season.

Richards of Long Beach played his first game as captain and showed up well. The Iackrabbits next met Whittier and were doped to lose, but as often happens, the locals upset the dope and defeated the Quakers after a fast game, the final score being 17 to 11. Lemon of Whittier starred for the visitors, while Speed, Richards and Larsen did well on the offense for Long Beach. Davis did some good work at guard. Fullerton next fell before the local team, taking their medicine to the time of 21 to 13. Speed and Richards starred as usual for Long Beach while Parker did well. The team was in rare form at the end of the season, and had they won from San Diego in any earlier game they would have won the league title. San Diego, however, won after a hard battle, the final score being 25 to 20. The last and biggest game of the year was played with Pasadena. A large crowd watched the game, which was replete with thrills although it was Long Beach all the way until the last quarter. Captain Richards played a sensational game, while Eldredge Combs showed he knew some' thing about the game. The final score was 16 to 9. one hundred seventy-six ,t Larsen and Richards starred throughout the season on the offense, while Parker and Davis did well on the defense.

The five were coached by Penny Boyer, former player, and managed by Corwin Foster. In the first game of the season, Santa Ana took a close contest from the local midgets to the tune of 17 to 12. Nelson, Winterburn, and Captain Brown starred for the locals in this contest. The next game saw Long Beach improve and win from Fullerton, 25 to 20. Good guarding and fast work by the forwards helped Long Beach take the contest. In a practice game Huntington Park had an easy time beating the locals by the overwhelming score of 16 to 5. However, the local vest pocket editions did better in their next game, which was with Whittier, and made a game fight. With one minute to play the Jackrabbits led, 10 to 9. just as the whistle blew a Whittier player sank a long shot for a basket and the game went to Whittier, 11 to 10. In the last game of the season Long Beach lost to Pasadena 14 to 6. Brashear, Winterburn, and Nelson played good games but the Bunnies could not stop the Pups from Pasadena. The absence of Captain Brown from all but tw-o contests was a great handicap to the local casaba chasers, as Brown is a fast little guard and his loss cost the team many baskets, During his absence, Jim Logan was acting captain and performed nobly. one hundred seventy-seven LIGHTWEIGHT BASKETBALL TEAM 'lil ' I I : A A' H few' - 1 Q , - Ev ' Walllll : ,ulllwnigd Z 667 luv I :ml A-I I WWI 5 V, ll in ' Z W Nelson and Winterburn carried on the offense for Long Beach, with Yeomans in readiness.

In a practice game with Anaheim the lightweights won a fast game by the close margin of 10 to 8. Qther practice games were played but they were of no importance.

Coach Comfort had charge of the baseballers, while Lonnie Lancaster was manager. Manley Cohner, of last year's squad, captained the outfit. Coach Comfort had the aspirants out for three months intensive training, during which time several practice games were played. In a series of games with Anaheim, the local players won by a margin of one game. Compton and Long Beach broke even in two games while Lomita was an easy victim of the jackrabbit title chasers. At the beginning of the season the material was all green execpt for three men from last yearls team. Coach divided the thirty boys into two groups and played practice games between them every night. Fielding, batting, and pitching practice was also held every night. In the Hrst league game of the year the Long Beach nine had an easy time with the players from Santa Ana, taking the game in track meet style, 19 to 2. Wilkens, pitching for the Jackrabbits, was at his best and the Saints had little chance of hurting his delivery until he let up a little when the game was safe. The team fielded back of his pitching and the whole nine seemed to be functioning correctly. At the bat Captain one llllfldfgd Se'U67lty'7l1'1I-Z O Gohner and Hutton both had perfect days while Eaton, DeLoss, and Dillon played well. Two homers were knocked by the locals. The next game, scheduled with Fullerton, was called off on account of the hoof and mouth disease, so the local team took a week's rest. aThe following week Long Beach journeyed to Whittier, where the Poets, playing behind the superb pitching of Kimmell, handed the locals a string of goose eggs, winning 2 to O. Kimmell is a wonderful pitcher and held the local swatters to three hits. He was also the heavy hitter for Whittier, turning in both runs and hitting a triple. Wilkens did not pitch a bad game himself, allowing only five hits, but he had no chance against Kimmell. It was impossible to get any more games for Caerulea although two more were scheduled, one with Pasadena and one with San Diego. The local team still had a fighting chance for the championship even after their defeat. SECOND Although only two games were played, the second base' TEAM ball team had a fast team and won both their games. They were coached and managed by Coaches Comfort and Lancaster respectively. In the first game Lomita fell before the locals 14 to O, and in the second encounter Anaheim was the victim, losing 17 to 12. Some of the second team men, Hall, French, and Elliott substituted for the first team. The players on the second squad were: catcher, Gatov, pitcher, Lancaster, first base, Mosher, second, Hall, third, Eliott, short stop, French, left Held, Baker, center field, Mosey, right field, Walker.

The squad was coached by W. R. B. Osterholt until he leftg then Coach Butterfield took charge of the cinder path artists. Ray Tandy was captain of the team until he was forced to resign on account of the age limit, after which George Lewis took charge. In a practice meet the varsity team def feated the novice tracksters 63 to 23, Garner and Lewis showed up well. After a few practice meets, the local team journeyed to Santa Ana without several of its stars, and lost to the Saints, 79V2 to 39V2. In this meet Garner won both the one hundred and two hundred twenty yard dashes, while Lewis won the quarter mile. Captain Tandy won the discus. Next week the runners from Fullerton came to Long Beach and took a beating at the hands of the Jackrahbit athletes. In this meet Ray Tandy broke his former record of 126 feet in the discus with a heave of 129 feet and 6 inches. Lewis and Garner both won their races. Summers and Anderson also showed up well. Whittier next defeated the locals on the Poets' field, taking a close meet by winning the relay. The final score was 25 to 5 6. Garner again won his races in sensational time, while Lewis captured his race with ease. Fry and Reush also showed up well, while Tandy broke his record of the previous week in the discus by making a throw of 136 feet and 9 inches. In the next meet San Diego won a close contest from Long Beach, finally winning out 61 to 5 2. Zwains of Long Beach showed up well in taking Tandy's place, and Lewis ran his first race as captain.

Santa Ana was the dark horse of the meet and took second with 29 points. Long Beach was a strong third with 22 points, Garner surprising everybody by winning both the sprints.

In a practice at the beginning of the season, the local team was def feated by the more experienced Hollywood Athletic Club by a score of 13 to 3. No coach had been obtained up to this time and the ,lackrabbits played well considering this fact. In the next game, which was the first practice game with Huntington Park, the locals improved under the tutef lage of Coach Schuettner, winning the contest 7 to 4. The next game was with the Los Angeles Y. M. C. A. team, which is composed of experienced players. The Jackrabbits gave them a nice trimming, winning out 8 to 3. Huntington Park was again the victim of the local water dogs in another practice game, this time losing 10 to 5 . The last practice game before the regular schedule was with the alumni, in which the Iackrabbits lost a hard fought battle 4 to 2. The score was 2 to O at the end of the half in favour of the locals, but the alumni team came back strong in the last period. In the first league game of the year Long Beach won a close decision over L. A. High 5 to 4. The score was tied until the last few minutes of play, when Evans shot a goal from the middle of the tank and won the game. One hundred eighty-three Before the next game the local subs submerged the U. S. C. team 6 to 2. Pasadena was the next to fall before the swelling Jacks, who won this time 9 to 5 . The first half was close, being 5 to 4 for the locals, but the Jackrabbits were too good during the last periodg Murray, Hunter, and Barnett showed up well. Barnett played his first game at guard instead of sprint against the Bulldogs. The local squad had high hopes for a championship until the next game, when, after a rough game in salt water, the Venice water dogs won 7 to 2 at the enemy's tank. At one time five Long Beach men were put out, making it very easy for the Venice team to score. A game in fresh water might have brought a different result. In the next league game the local team had an easy time in sinking the Huntington Park team 8 to 2. Maltby played a fast game for Long Beach in this game. Inglewood was easily defeated by the Long Beach subs, losing 9 to O. The next game was with the Hollywood A. C. at Redondo, the locals losing 6 to 3. The contest was a practice game in preparation for the A. A. U. Junior championship playoffs. The L. A. A. C. next won over the Iackrabbits in a practice game, the score being 10 to l. Hunter, of Long Beach, played a good game, while Summeril and Dutch Miller starred for the A. C. In the last game of the season with Hollywood A. C. in a semiffinal for the A. A. U. junior championship, the local splashers lost 5 to 3 after holding the A. Cfs scoreless during the first half. The game was exciting, the score being tied three times before Long Beach lost. Hunter and Maltby played a good game for Long Beach. The other teams in the playoffs were Venice and L. A. A. C. Cal Strong was responsible for most of the Long Beach points throughout the season and starred in every game he played. The lineup for most games was: Maltby and Strong, forwards, Lewis, center half, Hunter, sprint, Barnett and Evans, guards, and Murray, goal. The subs showed up well in all their games, Parke, Archer, Thon, and Hulen doing especially well. One hundred efgh ty-four SVVIMMING TE.-X M Results of the games were: Hollywood A.

Several meets were scheduled with the battle ships and with other high schools. Manager ,lim Smith of the polo team managed the swimming outlit. Several polo men went out for the swimming team. Hunter, Archer, one hundred efgh ty-fue 1 GYMNASIUNI TEAM Meteer, Simmons, Hamilton, and Murray held down places in the 100 yard event. Barnett, the backstroke artist, from last year's team, was back this year. Lewis took care of the distance events. Maltby and Evans entered several events, while Thon and Parke did their stuff in the breast stroke. Buerger and Archer did the diving for the team, while Moffit held down the plunge for distance. Fred Fielding coached the team and at the time this article 'was written was very optimistic as to the outcome of the swimming season. GYM Under the instruction of Coach C. U. Butterfield, the Long TEAM Beach gym team had the most successful season since it has been organized. Up to the time the annual went to press but one meet had been held, and, although the locals lost, they were performing against more experienced gymnasts. In the first match between the different players the following team was chosen: Longfhorse, Clayton, Brisson, Rulong parallel, Brisson, Bonar, Johnson, rope, LeRoy, Rulon, Brisson, horizontal bar, Brisson, LeRoy, Riggs, and Fellows, Rings, Brisson, Bonar, Allen, side horse, Brisson, Bonar, Allen, clubs, Iohnson, Allen.

Although the local golf team had won only three matches GOLF and lost four at the time Caerulea went to press, one game was still to be played and the Iackrabbits had a good chance to break even on their final results. The team had a fast schedule of games and showed up well in all of them. ' Frende Combs was manager of the team and Harry Moore, vice' principal, was faculty adviser. In the first match at Griffith Park, Los Angeles, the local golfers defeated Franklin 3 to 2, McNamara of Long Beach turning in the lowest score of the day with an 80. In the next match the Hollywood team upset the dope and trounced the locals 5 to O, McNamara losing on the last hole when his opponent sank a twenty foot putt for a birdie three. L. A. Poly, the next rival, was hard, losing to the Iackrabbits 'S to 0. In the fourth match L. A. High took the count from Long Beach, winning 4 to 1. Santa Monica then defeated the locals by the close score of 3 to 2. Glendale then won from Long Beach by the easy score of 4 to 1. In the last game before Caerulea went to press Long Beach defeated Lincoln 4 to 1. Une match, with Manual Arts, still remained and the locals were given a good chance to win it. ' One hundred eighty-Se1Je TENNIS TEAINI In the qulaifying rounds for the team Bill McNamara, who played sensational golf all season, handed in a card of 69, which is an even par. McNamara holds the junior records for the Municipal course with a 69, the Virginia course with a 72 fone above parj, and the Hacienda course with an 80. . Ralph Kolle, number two man on the team, also played well during the season, but had hardlluck. .Vernon Underwood very capably filled the third position while Eldredge Combs played fourth. At the present time Frende Combs is playing fifth, Campbell, sixth, Clock, seventh, Underwood, eighth, and Luce, ninth, but some changes are expected before the end of the season. 1 TENNIS Under the good coaching of K. M. Barager of the com' mercial department, the Jackrabbit racket wielders have had, so far, a very successful season. Many excellent players have been developed. Under the surveilliance of Allen Baker as manager, the whole season is expected to end in a championship. Baker, with the aid of two veteran letter men, William Babcock and Everett Miller, has rounded a wellfbalanced team into the Hnals. When Caerulea went to press, the locals had won every match they had played except one. A big Hnal Coast League Tennis Tournament one hundred eighty-eight was held on the Fullerton courts, May 17. All the matches played before that date will not count on any team's standings. The championship will be played off in one day. The tennis team played the same schools as the major sports: namely, the Coast League schools. The tennis hounds so far have humbled Fullerton, Crange, Whittier, and Riverside teams and were beaten by the fast Cray Castle Dwellers from San Diego, A few more practice games are scheduled before the finals and one of these is a return match with San Diego. ' Long Beach has one of the best chances in the Coast League to clean up the championship. Miller and Babcock play Hrst doubles and Sweet and Stimpson are the bad news for the opponents in the second doubles. Miller plays Hrst singles, followed by Babcock, second singles, Baker, third singles, and Newby, fourth singles. The ones to receive their letters this year for tennis, according to Manager Allen Baker, are: Allen Baker, Everett Miller, Morris Stimpson, Ronald Sweet, William Babcock, and George Newby.

The purpose of the organization is to promote athletics, to uphold and carry out the highest ideals of good sportsmanship, and to foster a spirit of geniune service to the school. Active membership is extended to all girls who have earned two hundred or more points in athletic activities, and to the teachers in the physical education department, who constitute an advisory board. In addition to the various club activities, the association sponsored interclass volleyball, hockey, basketball, baseball, swimming, and tennis tournaments, and expects to add soccer to the sports next year. Aside from these, the important undertaking was Play Day. Play Day is an institution that was held for the first time this year, however, it was very successful and all participants had a good time. It is a day in which the girls of the schools in our Coast League come together for games and other recreations. Four hundred girls participated, and the result was a day full of activity and fun. It is hoped that the Long Beach Athletic Association may again be hostess for Play Day. Visitors went away declaring they had had a splendid time. fhmm A 'A' ' WVVVVOWVCVVVQ one hundred ninety GIRLS' LI'I'I l'I41R CLITB Scene: In front of girls' gymnasium.

The members of this club have kept up a lively frolic all year. They hiked many miles after school and even enjoyed all day and over night hikes.

I, a thoroughbred Airedale, in the pound! It is unbelievable. For three months I have followed my mistress to school, met her in gym second period, and patiently waited for her to come from dressing room number 45 . I used to go to geometry, but one day I saw a delicious fly buzzing around and I tried to obtain it. After that they closed the door in my face. I often wonder if the fly was worth it, but I guess it was. I did not need to go home at noon because I had so many friends who did not always like their hash. After lunch, I strolled leisurely toward the front lawn, where I would take my afternoon nap. All the students seemed to envy me because I had no science, geometry, or blue slips to worry about. But it is all over. They have expelled me for no good reason at all. I sit at home and dream of what used to be. Two hundred three IL ZJXZZZN ZX-' -,-,z X!

Two hundred 31.36 THE DUEL BETWEEN CAPTAIN SHGTT AND LIEUTENANT NOTT A duel was fought some time ago by Lieutenant NOTT and Captain SHGTT. NOTT was shot, and SHOTT was not. There was a rumor that NOTT was not shot, and SHOTT avows that he shot NCTT, which proves either that the shot SHCTT shot at NQTT was not shot, or that SHOTT was shot notfwithstanding. At the courtfmartial it was made to appear that the shot SHOTT shot, shot NOTT, or, as accidents with iirefarms are frequent, that the shot NOTT shot shot himself. As neither SHOTT nor NOTT was present at the trial, the whole affair was queered. It was said that SHOTT was not shot, but NUTTg as SHOTT was seen after the duel and NOTT was not. Anyway it is hard to tell who was shot, SHOTT or NOTT.
