I , ,f ff' Since days of old, when the Norsemen battled the seas and wrote sagas about them, the ocean has inspired man to high endeavor. With its ceaseless motion, its resistless urge, the sea of all forces in the natural vvorld commands our respect. lt may seem a far cry from the cold, forbidding, cruel sea of the Norsemen to the azure waters of California. But wherever iwe find the sea, in whatever clime, it still typif fies the virtues of courage and steadfastness. So it is with a purpose and a deep thought that we call our annual Caerulea, a word which, to the old Roman, meant the sea. Caerulea, may you ever carry on, and may you ever inspire our alma mater with thoughts of the sea-its courage and its steadfastness. The Staff M!

Yet as we contemplate it all and try to read its meaning, we know that God's work is not crowned in mountains, plains, and seas, but rather in man himselfg and We seem to hear the Master Builder calling in words of the poet: ' 'Bring me men ta match my mountains, Bring me men ta match my plains, Men with empires in their purpose And new eras in their brains. -David Burcham . In this energetic age-, when our city views the encircling oil derricks on the north and east, the sky-scrapers on the south and the commerce Carriers of the world in our harbor on the West, it is Well to turn back from this restless activity to those easy-going yesterdays when California was a manana land iilled with the romance and hospitality of old Spain. Perhaps a reminder of this romantic past may help us to find greater enjoyment in those gifts that God has given so lavishly in this wonderful state of ours. -Harry J.

That was the seventeenth century. Two hundred years ago, California was the scene of the greatest missionary zeal the world has known, the scene of the Missions with the Spanish padres. That was in the eighteenth century. Scarcely one hun' dred years ago, California became the Colden State, the magnetic pole of all the world. That was 1849. In all this history of three hundred years and more, California has been the name that recalls romance, that brings to our minds countless deeds of courage, of skill, and of fearlessness. And now in the last halffcentury, California again challenges the world with her development, made possible only by the dynamic, virile spirit of the West. ' Nothing can illustrate more clearly than the statements of eminent citizens what California's remarkable past means and what her traditional spirit is. Famous citizens of the West and East have been asked to give their impressions of the romantic past of California . Ray Lyman Wilbur Dr. Wilbur is president of Leland Stanford University, and being a Californian, is naturally proud of the traditi-ons and history of his state. California is unusually fortunate in its picturesque background. It is stimulating to the imagination of us all to think of the days of the Indian, of the coming of the Russian, of the Spaniard, and of the great days of '49. There has hardly been in the whole history of the human race a more draf matic episode than the Gold Rush to the Pacific Coast. Cut of this unique and romantic past the young people of California should gain an added incentive toward the def velopment of a greater Calif fornia of the future. James D. Phelan Hon. james D. Phelan was formerly United States Senator from California. He is now a San Francisco at' torney and lives in Saratoga.

CAERULEA '26 I met a modest neighf bor recently in the Santa Clara Valley and learned, to my surprise, that his father was indirectly responsible for the acquisition -of Calif fornia in 1846. He was the naval surgeon on Commof dore Sloat's flagship, the U. S. S. 'Savannah' at Mazatf lan in 1846, and under leave was traveling across Mex' ico on his way home, accompanied by John Parf As he had a knowledge of Spanish, he overheard in a tavern that there was fighting on the Rio Grande, and that war had been declared be' tween the United States and Mexico. Sloat was waiting for this news, and so was Sir George Seymour of H. M. S. 'Collingwood', a British sloop of war By using some strategy and much ingenuity, the doc' tor contrived to send a letter to the American commodore and have it delivered without arousing suspicion nor inf curring any of the grave penalties which are meted out to Undefg.,,fQdPfff1af?nder, Sloat, on hearing the news, put out ad once to sea Wood and arrived at Monterey, California, a short time before the arrival of the British fleet. England had been solicited by the Consul to take the land.-But the Stars and Stripes were waving from the mastfhead of the old Custom House when the British hove in sight. California was safe for the Union. My informant and neighbor is Colonel N Charles Erskine Scott Wood, U. S.

Through the meadows run swift brooks o'erfpeopled with trout, while from the crags leap full throated streams, blown half away in mist before they touch the valley floor. Far down the fragrant canyons sing the green and trouf bled rivers, twisting lower and lower to the common plain.

'Of course they're in Californial' cried the native son. 'Where else would they be?' Susan M. Dorsey Mrs. Susan M. Dorsey is the Superintendent of City Schools in Los Angeles. She is a longftime resident of California and contributes the folf lowing beautiful sketch as a close to our symposium. Yes, California has a romantic past! Not of the sentimental, introfspective sort, but of the wonderftale type, hers is the romance of great achievements of mighty men, for in this wonder state have centered those interests, activities, and personalities that in the days of the Mis' sions dotted the land with mazes of buildings, gems of architecture, and then cultivated their surrounding areas T until broad acres bore the fruits and grains of the world, bits of Paradise where before were barren wastes. There MPS- Susan M' Dorsey was the romance of achievement in those days when Calif fornia's pioneers wooed from her jagged mountain fastnesses in a few short years a billion dollars of gold and threaded her inaccessible Sierras with transcontinental railroads under hazards and difficulties that would have thwarted men of less stern stuff than veritable demifgods. Later her wonder workers created great harbors out of sandfchoked inlets and tide lands and in the brief space of half a century developed a world trade of vast proportions out of a few straggling sails drifting in from the Land of Nowheref, They caused waters to flow where no water was, in order to make deserts blossom and bear fruit and to quench the thirst of cities, Dream Cities, because they existed not, save in the visions of far' seeing men. They have within the span of a generation made countryside and hamlet brilliant with magic light and turned a million wheels of industry from the power hidden in the mountains, melted snow. California! The land of translucent atmosphere, of dreamy sunsets, of pacific waters, of snowfcrested Sierras, of cool, fernfcarpeted canyons, of golden flowers, and agefold sequoias, the land of the picturesque and the majestic-aye, more than that-the land of the undaunted wonder worker, the land whose achievements are one long romance! l V Ff ffgf' a' 1'-- 'mm' ,4Q,,A,.

This last place had a crazy little porch in front, and a bleachedfout sign, 'The Irrigater' over the door. I imagined that it might be a store or something, so I ambled stumblinglyl over the hot, loose sand beside the tracks, fervently hoping to find a coo spot inside The Irrigaterw. A half dozen other passengers were staggeringl in the same direction. As we approached the place, a tall, gaunt man came out, carrying a large bucket of water. Sloosh it went, as he flung it upon the parched ground. I think that was the sweetest, most enticing sound that I've ever been fortunate enough to hear. The water just sank where it fell, or disf solved into the air, in half a dozen seconds not a trace of it was left. Pouring out a bucket of water there was just like sneezing into a blast furnace. Got anything cold? I asked of the bucket carrier when I went inside. Vaniller ice cream, he drawled. Anything else? Nawp . Then give me about a quart, and a spoon, too, I added as an after' thought as the fellow disappeared into a back room. How on earth he ever kept ice cream in that particular bit of Hades I have never quite de' termined. I suppose he bought his supply from the weekly train and kept it in embalming fluid during the rest of the week. DEPKRT5 I turned around and gazed curiously about me. Plows, sacks of somefthingforfother, axes, sad' dles, were all distributed about the place at the greatest random. Three kegs of nails and a barrel of. pocket knives stood side by side. I couldn't help laughing, in spite of my cracked lips, when I saw a bunch of candles floating in a keg of water. That was the only way they could be kept in that awful heat. Un the side where I was waiting there was a bat' tered counter, not counting some halffmillion other things. By the counter there were three stools, and upon one of them, Oh! ll FM'!!!5 !i I'I !!!!!!Il I' E 6 M A I Q Mm mm ! 4r'1 or I , .QNX L - ,,: 1 5' A! +N- e- A- I rillt it iri, ml: Jafpslkal BYRIQIIKRD BGERY ! -' sm I Q -I, .'. , ' - : ' 2 li x!1E,:.i...,..!

I Slniifk ' There is at least one time in everybody's life when something that seems to be a miracle happens. The miracle of my life happened then, as I stood by the counter in that abominable old store, waiting for the slow specimen of a desert rat to bring me a quart of ice cream. Thinking that the heat had damaged my eyesight, I blinked twice before looking again. The temperature went way down past the zero mark. I stood there, staring, fearing to move lest I awake from this wonderful dream. She just sat there, all unconcerned, perched comfortably on the stool by the counter. Dream girl? Say! Dream girls weren't even in it! This one was miles ahead of any dream girl that has ever been dreamed of since the beginnings of mankind upon the earth! The storekeeper's drawling voice restored me to consciousness. I'Iere's your vaniller ice cream. I began breathing again. How much?'l I asked in a daze. When that pirate quoted his price, I realized why he took the trouble to keep ice cream, embalmed -or other' wise. Installment plan? I asked innocently. He failed to get the pointg so I paid him his money and stepped back to get another look at that human angel. She was gone. Gone! I was stunned. Gone! But surely she couldn't be far away. I ran out of the door, but she was not in sight. A short distance down 26 CAERULEA ,26 JIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIllIII!!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIllIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII5 the track were a few little houses . She must be in one of them, I thought A systematic search would certainly produce her. Just then a hoarse shriek from the train startled me. Great guns and little firecrackers! Did I have to leave that wonderful girl wandering around loose here in the desert just because a mere train was leaving? Ridiculous! I'd find her if twenty trains were pulling out. Settled on that point, I started walking down by the side of the tracks toward the little houses. The train was beginning to move. The engineer gazed curiously down at me as the engine passed. The cars went by faster and faster as I hurried along in the same direction . . . I counted them in derision. Let's see the train big enough to haul me out of here before I get another look at her! I thought. Clickety click! Clickety click! The cars were speeding past. Thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, I counted. Now the last car was passing. I looked aimlessly in at the people on the obserf vation platform. A man, a woman, and a girl were there. The man and the woman were just ordinary people, but the girl! I stopped in my tracks and gazed horrorfsticken at the speedily receding train. Sacred chrysanthemumslw I muttered frantically, and galloped down the tracks like a greyhound. But all to no avail. The weekly train was gone, upon it all my baggage, and also upon it, was that wonderful, marvelous girl!

There are caravans on painted wheels With horses large and black, There are fortuneftellers in their tents- Oh, eVerything's come back. There are roundfafbouts and gurdies Playing a mad, wild tune, There are skies for clearfeyed strangers Beneath the moneyfmoon. There are shouts, there's gay, loud laughter, There are kerchiefs coloured strange,- Ch, there are gypsies in St. Andrews From beyond the mountain range. St. Andrews' streets are cobbled- It's very old and gray, St. Andrews' spires are towering And tapering for aye. And yet, this day in August, It's full of gypsy folk, It's full of song and laughter, Of happy word and joke. Oh, it's Fair time in St. Andrews, And all the world's come down, Each gypsy from the countryfside, Each lady from the town.

As the curtain rises, Merced enters.l Merced: Dolores! Dolores! Come, and bring candles for this room. We will need much light here tonight, for Senor Samarano comes with his daughter's dowry. He is a rich man, Dolores, and values his daughter highly. Dolores: And that means-a bounteous dowry. Merced: My child, has not the padre taught you not to think only of gains? Read your Bible, Dolores. Dolores: There is an oxcart coming slowly down the road. Ahead of it a caballero rides. Now they turn into the courtyard. Merced: That is the dowry. And about time, too, with only a week until the wedding! fThey go out, but return almost immediately, ushering Alfredoj. Merced: Bring the chests into this room, Senor. The light fails, but sit and rest you before your ride back. Dolores, wine for the Senor. CDolores gives him a goblet of wine from the table and goes outl. Alfredo: I thank you, Senora. Indeed, a thirtyfmile ride is tiring for one of my age. Think you four chests are enough for the dowry? Pedro, bring them in here. fPedro and three peons enter, staggering with the weight of two large chests. 7 They set these down, go out and return with two more as Alfredo speaks. See, these old linens, all of them hemmed by the hands of my daughter and her maidens. This contains rich shawls and mantillas, all from Spain by the last ship. This last is silver.

Ah, yes. Alfredo: Later I bring casks of wine from my own cellar. The '78, Merced: And the Senorita Leila? Her health, I hope, continues? She is averse in no wise to this alliance with my family, I trust. Alfredo: My daughter's compliance with my will in this matter is absolute, as always, Senora: although, of course, having returned so recently from the convent, she exhibits a reluctance which the holy sisters and her own maiden modesty have taught her. Merced: fGuriouslyJ And in what way, Senor, does this reluctance ex' press itself? Alfredo: It is but a little matter, Senora, and of no moment. Mayhap she resents the custom that keeps her from seeing the bridegroom, Senor En' riguez, until they are married. - Merced: fHorrifiedD Has she said this? Alfredo: Not precisely, but I-ah-gathered it. These foolish 'modern ideas-I cannot say how our young people get them. Merced: Ah yes, it is a -pity, but she is young, Senor. CShe hovers round the chests. Gilberto and Rafael enter. Gilberto is a dark, slender young man, tall and languid, smoking a cigarette. He saunters over and looks at the chests, while his cousin, after greeting Alf fredo with a ceremonious bow, goes and sits at the windowj Gilberto: Good afternoon, Senor Samarano. Ah, the bride's dowry, I see. And the keys? Alfredo: Good afternoon, Senor Enriguez. Senora, here are the keys to the chests. I must go now. Rafael: Permit me to accompany you to your horse, Senor. fThey all go out, but Merced returns immediatelyj. Merced: She wants to see him, does she? Holy Mother! and he spoke of maiden modesty! Quick, Dolores, light the candles! It is so dark I cannot see the chests. fDolores enters with a lighted candle from which she lights those on the table. Merced unlocks one of the boxesj. Ah, these are the linens. Leila's mother could not have been very strict in her teachings. How large are the stitches! The linens of my dowry- C She breaks off and rummages in the box. Rafael and Gilberto return. Rafael sits at the window as before, while Gilberto unlocks another chest and pokes with his cane among a pile of bright shawls and mantillas. He pulls out a red and yellow shawl. His cousin rises quickly and comes and looks at itj. 30 CAERULEA '26 JlllIllllllIIlllIIIIIIIIIIIlIllIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIllIIIIIIIllIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIillIIIIIIIIIllllIHIIIIIIIllIIIIIIllIIIIllllIIllIIllIIIIIII1IlllIIllIIIllllllIllIIIllIIIIIIllIIIIIIlllll!IIIIlHllIIIIIllI'1 Rafael: That is the shawl she wore when she came here to vespers one Sunday, is it not? Gilberto: Ah, yes, with a rose behind her ear. Was she not vivid among the senoritas of San Gabriel? I wonder if all the maids of San Pedro are as beautiful as she. Merced: QI-landling the shawlsj But such brilliant colors for one so young. Now when I was young-ah, the silver. fTurning to the fourth chestj, The key, boy, the key. Gilberto: But Mother, here are only three, and they are for the other chests. Merced: What is this! Ride after Alfredo and demand that key, you! Gilberto: No, Mother, that is assuredly not etiquette. The chest is full of silver--its value is great. Perhaps, then, he purposed to hold the key until the wedding day. Merced: You are right, my son. There are grills at each end, but I can' not see into it. t Gilberto: Then let us leave the matter until the morrow. fThey all go out, Merced last, and with longing looks toward the chest of silverj SCENE II flt is some hours later. The curtain rises on the same room, and it is almost dark, except for the moonlight falling through the window in bars on the chest of shawls. Rafael enters softly and kneels before this chest. He is caressing something that is faintly red and yellow. As he does this, the lid of the chest of silver lifts slowly, and something infinitely graceful rises from the depths. It is Leila Samarano. She does not see Rafael, but he is on his feet the minute the lid begins to risej Leila: f Stretching and rubbing herselfj O how small and hot is that chest after all! I think I shall never get myself straightened out. Rafael: fastoundedj Leila! fShe turns quickly. I-le drops to his knee and kisses her hand., Leila: And who are you, Senor? I thought no one was here when I came out. Rafael: Wait. Let us have a light. QI'Ie lights the candles. She steps out of the chest, shuts the lid and sits upon itj Rafael: Do you not know me? I am- Leila: Why, surely I have seen you before. O, I remember! We played on the beach, years ago. You are the little boy who chased away the big crabs that frightened me. UIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIlllIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIllIIllIIllIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII' Rafael: Do you remember that? And how I dug the pink shells you wanted, out of the clear seafpools between the rocks? Leila: Yes. The largest shell my father carved into a comb for me. Here it is. fShe takes a comb from her hair.j We knew not one another's names then, and-why, I do not know you now! Rafael: I have seen you at vespers. But what are you doing here? Leila: It would be very humiliating for me, if they found me here. They would probably forbid the publishing of the banns. Still, I am not in sympathy with the custom whereby a girl sees her future hudgand only the day before the wedding. I had to see this Rafael Enriguez to whom I am to be married, and this was the only way. When the chests were left alone in a room at my father's house, I lifted out the heavy silver and hid it under my bed. Then just before the boxes were carried out I got into this one. It locks from the inside, too, you see. It was not comfortable, you may be sure. The cart jolted so, and O, the long journey! But I have seen him through the grill. fShe sighsj Rafael: And you are dissatisfied? Leila: What can I say? He is your cousin: is he not, Senor? But O!- f She mimics Gilberto. Rafael seems very much surprisedj Rafael: Why did you think it should be Gilberto? Leila: He showed an interest in the contents of the chests. And you- did not. Rafael: I could think only of you. CHe ponders for a while and then risesj Is the horse I saw outside yours, Senorita? . Leila: Yes. Pedro has orders to wait for me. Rafael: I am sorry I cannot ride home with you, but- Leila: And why, may I ask? Rafael: Because-you-see-it is not my cousin who is this Rafael En' riguezug it is I. Leila: Ohfhrh. fHand in hand they look into one another's eyes a long momentj Rafael: CEagerlyj And now that you have seen me, what is it that you would say, mi corazon? Is it that you are still dissatisfied? Leila: fSoftly and shylyj No. fHe kneels and kisses her hand again. With infinite grace she wraps her mantle about her and steals from the room, looking back as she goes. He remains on one knee., fCurtainj ,rw ,P ' .,,nv' ' ,, ' f 1.

They were humble, with but one motto: Service to God and man. They bore no blaring trumpets, singing victory to the skies. With voices hushed in prayer, they lived. Far up in the hills they built their Missions-crude workmanship and amply strong. Thus came the padres of romantic Spain to the new land of the West. They were happy and at peace with God and man. From out of the distant seas came the sailors with their jovial songs and loud carousing. There on sunny California's shores they toiled that the great industry of leatherflmaking might be carried on. Dirty, weary, laughf ing, cursing-thus did they exist. They were good men, they were bad men, they were happy, they were sad. Away from the color of Mexico came the people whose blue veins held the fire of old Spain. Into the Land of Gold they danced. They were gay with color, bright with laughter, careffree with perpetual youth. The fiesta was their life, the guitar their merry symbol. They were a careless peopleg a happy people. They hated, they lovedg they lived. 5 7 'ZEDAQJ ffb ffbf' A055 4 I 5-K K df'-xflfbiyl gi- ef' vf lf 'G-AQ? i '74 q'EammJ2P44Eh5 9 9,,..- -555.1613 .W 7Qfft1 ' M.

Madness, riches, poverty, tragedy, joy-all these! It was the day of '49, the day when all the world seemed swarming to the Land of Gold. There were fathers and brothers, sweethearts and husbands. They lived, they died for the Gold. And so passed the years with their color. The old Missions cracked,-bent low beneath God's powers. They became the memoirs of a day gone by. The padres passed on, with heads bowed low, to new Lands of Promise. The sailboats disappeared before the mighty arm of ocean steamers. The fiesta became a tradition, even the gay and laughing youth grew old. The tinkling of the guitar died with its master. Shining rails of steel grew through the eager days, and wove a way through all the wilderness. And still they come, from the East, from the West, from the North, from the South,-the people of all the world. And some are good, and some are bad. Many are gay with laughter. A few are deep in sorrow. But laughing, mourning, all learn to smile, for there is peace in California, and God seems very real. efnx ox t ax G-ix-straw-.rf M A' XR GNTMWI A -A Z gc 'WM Il?

She sat down and looked at me, I didn't pay any attention to her. I knew something strange would happen, for it always does when Ellen pays me unexpected visits. I d1dn't want her to notice my curiosity, so I kept on studying and wondering. Finally, out it came. Jimmie, you know, I've come to a conclusion. The more I see of some people the more I value Bumps! That so? I said. I wanted to appear unimpressed. I never do like to have my sister think that I appreciate the depth and importance of her conclusions. She saw that an argument was not forthcoming, so after a few minutes of waiting for sign of my defeat, she reluctantly withdrew. As soon as she was out of the room, I took a deep breath, slammed my geometry against the wall, and sighed. It was true, I knew it was true. I felt the same way. But why, after seeing different people, did we think more of Bumps? Perhaps I should explain a little. Bumps is just a plain, white dog. I-Ie has big brown eyes, a curly tail, and a black nose. Contrary to most publicity agents and their tactics, I refuse to compare him with Strong' heart, for there is no comparison. Strongheart is a wonder, he's big and strong, intelligent and obedient. Bumps is just Bumps. He knows what time supper is served, hevknows how to bury bones, and he knows when his feet are muddy. But he will not mind. If you want him to come home, he goes the other way, if you want him to show off for company, he sulks bef hind a chair. That's Bumps. Then why should he seem such a wonder to Ellen and me? Because he's our pal. A dog has a depth of understanding that antifpet critics fail to com' prehend. It has that faith in its master so boundless and pure that no slylyf whispered word of slander can change its opinion or make it honor one less. The hand that feeds him, even if it be a nough and freckled one like mine, is the hand of a king, and at that, the hand of the greatest king. The mouth that speaks kind words to him and the eye that looks into his worf shipping little heart with understanding, are the blessings of his God. Two whole blocks will he hurry his little feet from play and the en' trancing game of burying bones, because he knows IIIII coming home from Aaggieiee ef-as AQA2-A ' ' - -vvv V ID fn 4,4 FRANKLIN W QP -:'- f .4.A .v vAv v v v v v v v vay v v v viv v 1 v v vey v v y i, Y.

He knows that I shall stop and pet his glistening little head, tickle the tender spots behind his ears, and laugh with him. How many people would walk two blocks in order to have me tickle their ears? Une day, not so very long ago, I was very much worried about a mat' ter that later proved to be of no importance whatsoever. But then it loomed before me like Mount Vesuvius. Mother wasn't at home, Ellen was sewing and uninterested. No one seemed to care a bit how much I was worrying, and I wanted sympathy very badly. Selffpity is a selfish, terrible thing, but right then I pitied my' self with all the fervor of my eighteen years. I was almost sick. I went into my room and literally threw myself on the bed. I'm ashamed of myself, for I did a very unmanly thing: I cried. Suddenly I felt the bed shake a little. It was probably an earthquake, but I didn't care. I lay there, in expectation, waiting for the crash of the falling roof. Suddenly, I felt something cold against my hand. I jumped, I thought it was a snake. I turned over and then moved my head back, ever so slowly, to catch one glimpse of the reptile before I should leap from the bed. Instead of the slick, limp coil which I expected to see, there were two big brown, pitiful eyes, a cold nose, and a furry, white bodv. It was Bumps, and he, too, was crying. As I looked down into those deep orbs of love and understanding, he wiggled toward me. He licked my hand, he looked at me. It's all right, Buddy, don't you worry, he seemed to say. First thing I kncw I had put my arms about his dear old neck, and had kissed his funny little face. Then he looked up at me and actually laughed. Then I laughed, and that seemed to help matters a bit. He wanted to show ime something in the yard. He took hold of my finger and led me through the door, down the steps and on to the porch. There, sitting on the doorfmat, was a little black kitten. I petted it and Bumps licked it. I forgot all about my troubles. And it's that way all the time. When I need a trusting, sincere little friend, I turn to Bumps. When I have an inclination for gossip, I find Bumps, and we talk away for hours at a time. And at night, when my feet get cold, I whistle for Bumps. What is more, every time I need him there he is, wagging his love for me. I really think that he is proud of me, and he is the only creature that is. May my God guide him in his ignorant, innocent, little life, for he's my Bumps. 36 CAERULEA '26 qlllllllIllllIlIlIIIIIllIIIIIIlllIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIllIIIllIIIllllllllllllllllllllllll IIllllIlllllllllllllllllIllllIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllll OF TI-IE PAST By Elizabeth Bryan LORICUS golden sun of the West falling on crumbling gray adobe. Blue sky, California sky, flecked with baby white clouds floating away toward the horizon. Warm Winds of midday vvaft fragrant scent from ocher fields of mustard. Birds carol. Bees hum their noonday croon. Happy little breezes wrap themselves around the ancient ruin, play in the moldering corridors. Majestic even in decay, calm and serene, stands the old mission of the past. Down the road which once the Padres trod comes the sound of the whir of motors. Two autos clamor to a standstill. Is that it? shouts an occupant of the first car to the driver of the second. Must be. Can't have missed the road , replies the driver in a voice accustomed to making itself heard above the sound of the roar of the city's voice. The tourists clamber out of the cars. What a disappointment! shrills a voice. It's not what I expected at all. Why it's not in the least avvefinspiring, not at all what I imagined. IIIIIIII!IIIIIllIIIIHIIIIIIIHIIIIHIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKIIIIIIIIIIIKIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIVIIIIIIIIllllIIl!IllllIIIIIIlIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIllIIIIIIIllIIIIIIlllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIlIIlllllllllllllllllllllll French heels clatter down the worn corridor through an archway sanctified by the labor of the fathers. The little breeze is stilled. Birds, resenting the intrusion, fly to the meadows near. Only the croon of the bees remains the same. Through the living quarters wander the sightfseekers, commenting on the darkness of the rooms, the apparent crudeness of the kitchen. Just catch me cooking in a place like that , complains a woman of the party. . Now you're talkin , agrees another. Through the vestment room with its massive old chests of drawers and into the sacred chapel they go. Worn spots in the hardfpacked earthen floor tell a story not to be expressed in words of mortals, spots worn by the kneeling of the good fathers who raised their voices in supplication for the hope of the world. Profane voices of the men and shrill words from the women seem to desecrate the holy place. The tourists leave with a great squeaking of brakes amid loudfvoiced praise or expression of disgust. It sure was great. Eh, john? Naw. Wasn't like I thought it was. Oh Madge, did you see Eva's new summer hat? 'LI'Iow do you suppose the fight tonight will come out? I'm bettin' on the Kid. Forgotten! Forgotten the grand old mission! The day is ending. A golden sunset, God's promise to mankind, casts its softening glow on the old adobe walls. Birds twitter softly in the trees. The breeze is stilled. And in the shadows of the twilight the Padres walk once more and tell their beads. Oalmness, peace, and a beautiful joy per' vade the place. Once more the blackfrobed hgures work and labor in the old mission. Tiny Indian babes play about the courtyard. Once more the fields nearby are tilled by willing hands. The joy of labor is complete. The sunset fades and night falls, but it is not dark, for in the east a star shines.

As early in my history as my third or fourth year I began to idolize people. Margarita an Italian hired girl was the first I , one. do not remember her features or her manner, but I distinctly recall the great love I had for her and my corref sponding desire to win her approval. It was one of my childish occupations to do embroidery work and on one occasion I rememb M ' , er argarita promised to give me a niimber of spools of bright thread if I could accomplish a rt ' ce am design in brown with' out a mistake. I smile a little now as I think of myself-a tiny girl with yellow curls and a pink bow-struggling valiantly with tangles on the wrong side but c t ' ' on riving a smooth and masterly piece of work -on the right, and hoping that Margarita would not ' ' scrutinize it too closely. She did, though, and her discovery of my knots and tangles and my subsequent fall in her estimation were so b't I 1 ter, in fact, that they crowded out thoughts of the reward I had lostg even now I do not rememb h er w ether or not I ever gained possession of the pretty thread. So started my career as a hero worshipper. But perhaps before I prof ceed farther I ought to qualify the word hero . In the sense in which I use it, it does not, as you have seen, pertain exclusively to members of the male sex. Moreover, it does not necessarily refer to persons of heroic qualif ties. The latter can be and f requently are supplied by the fervor of the worshipper. Hence, almost anyone will meet the requirements of the hero. This fact makes for a nice variety of subjects to work on. I point with pardonable pride to the lar e and ' d' ' g in iscrimmate list of heroes I have idolized in a short twelve or thirteen years. IllIlllIllllIIIIIHIIIlIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllliIIIIHHIIIIVIIIllIIII!IIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIllllllIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Illlllllllllllllllh Margarita and a country teacher reigned before my school age. Then my kindergarten teacher and a little girl who taught me Oneftwo, what'll we do? were next. An athletic girl, a violinist, a sissy, a physiography teacher, who went to the Hawaiian Islands, a Penrod prototype, a thin, talkative junior boy, a nun, a handsome jew, a debater, a doctor's son, a socially prominent girl, and several others whom I have forgotten, each in turn, claimed my devotion. After discovering a hero I choose one of two courses. I either annoy him with incessant attentions and deferences or from afar idealize and yearn over him. I really prefer the latter way. In fact I have found that if I observe the precaution of admiring only people whom I do not know well and then do 'my heroizing by the long distance method, I can manage with so few broken idols that I am really quite comfortable. This philosophy developed through my experience with the Sissy. He was visiting for the summer across the street from my home. Our families had been acquainted for many years. I-Ie was very good looking. What was more natural than that I, being out of heroes at that particular time, should utilize him as such? It worked beautifully for a time. We played croquet and I listened to tales of his own city, Chicago. But a girl at the age of thirteen is emotionally incapable of admiring for long a boy who meekly responds to his mother's daily call of, Come on home now, Charles. It's time to take your nap, dear. So-that ended. After the choice of a hero I set about very subtly to accumulate some information regarding him. I say subtly becauseiI must do it without arousing the suspicions of any one fleast of all th-ose of the person in quesf tion, and because I must unearth nothing contrary to my already estab' lished ideal. Very trivial or casual remarks will serve this purpose. For instance, in the case of the violinist a chance conversation informed me that he sold papers to contribute to the family finances, which were reported to be in a depleted condition. I-Ie never knew, and I pray that he never will, to what undue proportions of nobility I magnified that fact. Boys feven violinistsj have probably assisted their families over and over again without wearing such halos as I chose to bestow on this one. But-such is the function of the hero worshipper. fNote-I did not spoil this matter by close friendship and I still think with considerable warmth of the Noble Youthful Violinistj The acquisition of a tangible reminder of the ideal is always an aid to perfection in hero worship. I have one entire half of my treasure box devoted to such relics. If the admired person is well known, one may be 40 CAERULEA '26 CIIllIIIllllIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllIIHIIIIIIIII Illllllllll III I llllllll Ill I IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHllIllllllIIIlllIIlIIIIllIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIH fortunate enough to secure occasionally a newspaper picture of him as well as an account of his accomplishments. This happens only rarely, however, and should he appreciated when it does. In this connection let me hint that a hidden place for storing these cherished articles will save much embarrass' ment. There is only one thing more necessary to the professional hero vvorf shipper. That is something on which to keep a record of his flights into sentiment. Mine is in the form of a coral necklace, each link of which is reserved for the initials of one victim. There are eleven blank ones to date but fthis is strictly confidentialj I think-yes, I am almost sure-that very soon there will be only ten.

This appreciation of the past is laudable, as the beauty and inspif ration of California certainly deserve this recognition. But one can never consider the past deeply without having a thought for the future. And so, lest we be accused of growing old and conservative in our worship of California past and present, let us consider the California of the future, for here undoubtedly lies the chief concern of the student body of Long Beach High School. We are not responsible for the past. We alone are responsible for the future. Whether California in the future lives up to the high standards set for it in the past, is the responsibility of the students in the high schools and colleges of California today. When we attempt to picture the future of California, we are appalled at her possibilities of development. One has but to travel through the Golden State to realize the agricultural possibilities, lying practically un' touched, to recognize her manufacturing potency, to visualize her com' mercial prowess in the future with ships from every port anchored in her harbors. We need no imagination to recognize the unsurpassed recreational facilities, to believe that here, indeed, is a state exceedingly blessed by God. The important thing for us of the schools and colleges to realize is that here within our power is the opportunity of building the greatest state in America, one which we shall be proud to call home, one that will command the respect and admiration of the world. OUR OLD FRIEND, FRA JUNIPERO By Charles F. Seymour I-IROUGH Junipero Avenue Long Beach has inherited and should prize the name of the founder of the Hrst of the Franciscan missions of Alta California. Nearly five years before our New England fore' fathers brewed the historic tea in Boston harbor, Fra Junipero Serra was laying foundation stones at San Diego. Friend, take not his name in vain! When next you travel by the eastfbound FourthfStreet bus, muster moral courage to ask that you be deposited at I-Ioofneefpero. The bus driver won't understand you the first time, and it will require still greater courage to repeat it. But the improvability of the genus homo sapiens is the most hopeful factor in the educative process. So be not ashamed to utter the worthy founder's name! EDITORIAL 43 BE A BOOSTER, NOT A BOASTERH OW many people, we wonder, have come to the realization of the nice distinction between a wholefhearted booster and a boaster. Cornelius Vanderbilt, jr., the noted publisher, has taken cog' nizance of this lack of discrimination at various times in his Los Angeles paper, The Illustrated Daily News . How often we observe in our schools, in our churches, clubs, and lodges the man or woman who in trying to be a booster makes himself a bore to those around him by illfadvised boasting. Especially in relation to our native state, must we Californians be care' ful that we tread not on this important point. Our state is so beautiful, her past history is so romantic, her present spirit is so admirable, that it needs no exaggeration, no subterfuge to make it attractive to those who seek information about her. Let us tell the truth plainly. Let us realize that the booster is wanted and needed in every school, college, club, church, and chamber of com' merce in our state, but that in none of these places is there room for the boaster. A SUPERIORITY COMPLEX E OFTEN hear it said by people who think they know, that men of prominence are for the most part far removed from the world and do not care to associate themselves with it. Persons who are guilty of statements like this one are apparently un' familiar with the facts and realities of life. Aside from enriching the value of this year's annual, the letters we have received from many prominent people as a result of requests from us clearly demonstrate the fallacy that famous persons are afflicted with the superiority complex. If we could but realize that the artist of the Fifth Avenue studio of today was the poor artist of the garret not long agog that today's captain of business toiled a few years ago at the very bottom of industry, if we could realize that the ranks of greatness are continually being filled, not by the rich or the famous, but by the men from the bottom, then indeed would the jealousy that small men hold for successful ones cease. There is no such thing thing as a superiority complex except among those who think they know but do not. 44 CAERULEA '26 IIIIIIIHIIIIIII IIIlllllIIIllllIIIIlKIIIHIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlvlllllllllllllilllllll I4lllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll OUR APPRECIATION NDER the leadership of Mr. George C. Moore, whose distinguished work this Caerulea is recognizing, the high school band has won many honors. In a contest of all Southern California high schools, held at Los Angeles, the Poly High band won first prize. The orchestras have also achieved a reputation for their annual concerts which are given in Long Beach, Compton, and Torrance. These honors and many others may be attributed to the untiring leadership and ability of Mr. Moore. HALL OF HONOR AERULEA of 1926 presents a California Hall of Fame. The students of the United States history classes conducted an election in which they selected the ten men they considered most deserving of this honor. These results may be seen opposite the dedication at the front of the book. Needless to say, there were many other Californians deserving of great honor that could not be included in a small list like the one selected for the Hall of Fame. As a matter of interest and to do credit to these distinguished men and women, there will be found below the Roll of Honor containing the names of the other nominees for Caeruleais hall of great men and women: Carrie Jacobs Bond John Burroughs Bret Harte Stewart Edward White James W. Marshall Asa Whitney Gene Stratton Porter Lewis Manly Andy Smith Mark Twain Franklin K. Lame Helen Hunt Jackson John Bidwell Joaquin Miller John Steven McGroarty C. P. Huntington P. H. Burnett Starr King Curtis D. Wilbur Joe Walker Zane Grey Pio Pico James Lick Stephen M. White Cecil DeMille CAERULEA'S LOSS AERULEA sincerely regrets that with the opening of the new Woodrow Wilson High School next fall she will lose the faithful services and exceptional ability of her art adviser, Miss Ruth I. Burdick. It is through Miss Burdick's appreciation of art and because of her inspiration to those who are working with her that Caerulea has been an artistic publication.

Anson Argue HIGH LIFE HE fact that there were two capable cartoonists on the High Life staff this year was both unusual and fortunate. Lorrie Smith, editor, and William Bruce in the many drawings they contributed to the paper added visibly to its worth and interest. At the close of last year the Commission, on recommendation of Miss Florence M. Carpenter, High Life adviser, appointed Lorrie Smith editor. Other positions announced at that time were Beatrice Tibeau, associate edif tor, Ernest Denning, managing editor, Llewellyn Bixby, Ir., news editor. Early in the year Jack Binns received the appointment of sport editor. His department is the largest in the paper. Ruth Randolph was made asf sociate news editor. Department editors the first semester were Richard Morrow, govern' ment, Wendell Doty, boys' activities, Kathryn Smith, girls' activities, Helen Beavers, personals and clubs, Hazel Kuno, features, Louise Sunderlin, acaf demic, Ruth Randolph, music, arts and sciences, Mazel Massagee, ex' changes, Bradford Bond, jokes. The business staff consisted of William Hatheld, business manager, Lon Grannis, advertising manager, Locke Wilson and Frank Earquharson, respectively associate and assistant advertising manager, Harold Bock, circuf lation manager. Miss Carpenter, Mr. R. R. Lynn, and Mr. D. B. Kendall served as advisers. PUBLICATIONS - A , ,,, , ,, ,,A , -49 , l By publishing at the opening of the second semester a yellow journal, Low Life , which was Poly's first joke edition, the midfyear staff made its reputation with the student body at once. Not only did Low Life re' ceive local praise, but several exchange papers sent in congratulations for the success of the venture. The publication of Low Life bids fair to become an annual event since the initial attempt called forth such enthusiastic re' sponse. Another innovation of this year's staff was the formation of a Press Club to' which all members of the class belonged. Several lively social aff fairs served as pleasant contrasts to the continual work which the publicaf tion requires. The personnel of the second semester staff follows: Lorrie Smith, editor, Bradford Bond, managing editor, Anson Argue, copy editor, Bob Blake, news editor, Mazel Massagee, assistant news editor, James Heart' well, sports, William Bruce, boys' activities, Gladys Barnum, girls' activif ties, John Ramsey, academic, Albert Denney, government, Lorna Critchf Held, music, arts, and sciences, Lola Whitcomb, features, Frances Dilday, personals and clubs, Harold Bock, jokes, George Watson, exchanges. Ref porters were Max Durham, Don Bayne, Tom Youle, George Lord, Irma Catterlin, Bernice Carey, Horace Wingard, and Berneice Cox.

The Christmas motif was used in most of the art work and in many of the stories, poems, and other articles. The staff was composed of julia Birk, literary editor, Catherine Scurlock and William Bruce, art editors, Anson I. Argue, business manager, and Miss Marie Preston and Miss Eleanor Pooley, literary advisers. Miss Carol Lewerenz was art adviser. The cheery red issue of Acacia met with great success, and drew favorable comment both at our Poly High and in other high school publications, with which it was exchanged. The Sailor , a story by Anson Argue, was judged the best manuscript in this issue. In March the second Acacia was published. It was most enthusiastif cally greeted, and established Acacia as a permanent publication of our school. 'lt carried an Irish atmosphere, which was admirably portrayed in both the written contributions and the drawings. The cover was a rolf licking green, with letters and an Irish harp printed in gold. The staff of the former Acacia continued in oflice, with the additions of Earl Coleman as second business manager, MarionfCrey Franklin, prooffreaderg and Muriel Emery, typist. Mollie Chalmers' poem, Market , was the firstfprize manuscript, and Catherine Scurlock's story, Danny's Leprechaun , was second. Contrif butors to the two Acacias included the complete membership of the Writers' Club. f,Il.llll!'U' ' ' -qu:-21 '-lII'lQ'lll Zb '!llfliTIll'Z'i11lf3's.'1llQ' .4'plg!

There were no activities during the day except the visiting of classes and teachers and informal entertaining by various high school organizations, however, in the evening a banquet was served in the cafeteria. During this time the Association's regular business ses' sion was held, and the reports of the nominating committee were made. JANE TUDENTS of Long Beach High School have heard HARNETT much of the Jane Harnett Memorial Fund, but they know little of the person whose character' and ser' vice the fund commemorates. Miss Elizabeth H. Bailey, Miss Harnett's intimate friend, has written the following sketch: Jane Harnett's friends remember her, not as a scholar, but as a radi' ant personality. 'You met her in the hall', one said, 'and the whole day looked brighterf Her spirit was infectious. She chuckled at your feeble joke, and it seemed pure wit. A chance suggestion, restated in her clear vision, appeared one's own good wisdom. She was a great appreciator. Her 'Good', with that genuine smile sent a student to the library for hours of research and spurred even a laggard to work as he never did for anyone but Miss Harnett. She was a tremendous worker herself, but she knew how to play, too. She was a veritable Helen Wills on the tennis court, champion of her own club and the peer of student champions. The writer hears still the swish of her racquet, sees the swift serve, the sure return, and the lithe little figure everywhere on the court. She loved all out doors. Signal Hill, before oil created it limbo, was her favorable walk. She knew every wildf flower and hailed every new bird as it passed through. The coming of the first chat or the thrush was an event. She read history, of course, 'ate it up', but somehow she had time for a new book now and then, a good story, a bit of verse, even a clever 5 104 CAERULEA 26 dllIIllIIIllIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIlIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIHIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIlIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIllIIIlIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIII 1522 .F 95 52 Qgsfg Q gisfi QE M i.fe 5 5252 393 45.2 925553 I :-, :-.5 -.'-'f 1 -1:' 3 ,l I Q ::' - I s . . -'.- ' Q 1 Mr. Burcham.

Working under a hardship caused by the temporary loss of their room, the commissioners overcame difficulties by that smooth, easyfrunning system wherin little is said and much accomplished. HellofSmile Week helped brighten the campus early in the year, and the completion of the tennis courts in the rear of Burcham Field brought more smiles to the faces of many tennis enthusiasts. Song rallies were held during the entire semester, and four artist concerts were sponf sored by the Commission under the direction of the department of music. Under the direction of the Commissioner of Affairs a thirty page book' let for the Board of Education, entitled The Public Schools of Long Beach, California , was published in the high school print shop. The Commissioner of Athletics secured blankets for the football men and a lighted score board for basketball. The Commissioners of Arts and Welf fare were kept constantly at work, and their untiring efforts account for much that was accomplished. Among a number of projects completed was the introduction of Commission Replies to Student Opinions , the establishment of a standard gold L , Members of the Commission were as follows: Phil Dixon, Affairs, Josephine Campbell, Arts, Everett Brown, Athletics, Spurgeon Finney, Safety, Loraine Neel, Welfare.

Twentyisix hundred students were responsible for the election of this group in February. The first action of the new Commission was to pay tribute to the splenf did work of Miss Eleanor G. Pooley, by electing her to serve a third term as Commission adviser. Miss Pooley is probably the only Commissioner of Records to have served three consecutive terms. Notable in the work of the Commission stands a new scrap bo-ok, dedicated to a desire for the best in management of teams. In this book each manager will be required to write an account of his experiences in ofiice, that managers following may gather helpful information. . Continuing the excellent system inaugurated in the Lost and Found Department, a bulletin board and a wrought iron sign have been added to the present equipment. Badges were purchased for the Vigilantes and new equipment added to the Commission room. A censoring process was ap' plied to thei bulletin, which has proved very successful in eliminating un' necessary notices.

Gilbert, the smiling Smother of Poly's twentyfone hundred girls, the tenth birthday of the Girls' League slipped by early in the year. Successful in their undertakings and admired for their work, it is little wonder that today no other organizaf ion in school commands more respect. Barbara Parmley was B. Parmley, H. A. Price, M. Farr. D. Henry, President of th e '25'f'26 Leagueg Helen A. Price, vice' president, Marion Farr, recording secretary, Doris Henry, corresponding secretaryg Dorothy McGinnis, treasurer, and Mrs. Anna M. Gilbert and Miss Violet Hess, advisers. In September, before the new girls in school had found a chance to become lonely or to realize themselves among strangers, the Big Sister movef ment was organized and successfully under way. Each League represent' ative became a Big Sister to a number of strangers, and after a welcoming reception had been given, the girls were made to feel like members of one big family. Besides furnishing the rooms of the new welfare center on Perris Road, the League distributed one hundred dollars and two hundred baskets at Thanksgiving and at Christmas conducted a Christmas Tree and entertain' ment at the Mirasol School. Scrapfbooks were made and a party was given for the Mexican mothers at the Newport Avenue Americanization Center. Three popular musical assemblies were held during the year, and trees were planted around the girls' athletic field. A lawn fete, given in conjunction with the Boys' League, took the place of the May fete, which had been an annual Girls' League event, was held early in the spring. To every one's enjoyment not even pink lemonade was missing from the fun. Typical of all Girls' and Boys' League work, the Lawn Fete was a great success.

For two years the fellows in school had felt the need of something larger and better than the Chamber of Commerce, and so after a month's time the '25726 Commission submitted to vote L a Boys' League constitution. Emmett Sullivan, Dave Vvilliams, Ralph Saylor. Officers elected, who SCI'VCd 3- very successful term, were Emmett Sullivan, presidentg Dave Williams, vicefpresident, Bob Blake, ref cording secretary, Ralph Saylor, corresponding secretary, Ronald Sweet, treasurer, Harry J. Moore, exfoflicio adviser, E. Franklin, adviser, and Harold McNee, senior representative. The purpose of the League is to foster a spirit of loyalty to Poly High and to further all student activities, particularly the activities of the boys. An intensive cleanup campaign was undertaken immediately after the installation of officers, it met with great success. Cn November 13th, through the efforts .of Harry J. Moore, the Coast League's Convention of Boys' Leagues was held at Long Beach. Hardly satisied with a brilliant start, the league showed its fine cofoperation by assisting the Commission in establishing a rooting section. Committee chairmen .of the Boys' League were William Fennell, Public Serviceg Fred Talbert, Welfare, Nason Hall, Selffgovernmentg and Wendell Doty, Social. - Bob Blake, Ronald Sweet, Mr. Franklin VIGILANTES RINGING to mind the early fortyfniners and their Vigilant force is the recently organized group of officers whose purpose it is to create co' operative control in student circles. 0 - Twentyffive fellows are serving on the force under Captain Don Bayne and Lieutenants Max Durham and Laurence Perrish.

Don Bonar, Mr. Franklin more boys was held in February at which the youngsters were instructed in school yells and songs and were told by leaders in school sports how the various activities functioned. Another assembly was held in March to introduce the new officers, but probably the most unique assembly of the year was that at which a tennis ball autographed by Bill Tilden and a base' ball autographed by Walter Johnson were given away. Other projects completed during the Hrst half of the second semester included the establishment of an employment bureau, the organization of the Vigilantes and the staging of a stag banquet for all boys in school. Officers of the Boys' League for '26 were Spurgeon Finney, president, Clifford Shaw, vicefpresident, Nelson McCook, recording secretary, Harold Odmark, corresponding secretary, Don Bonar, treasurer, H.

Eightyffive thousand ice cream cones and large quantities of founf tain and school supplies were also sold. . Bifweekly meetings of all the clerks are held, similar to those held in large department stores. At these meetings discussions are held on the problems of the store, and studies in salesmanship are made. Several busif ness men were obtained as speakers at this year's meetings, and some very interesting problems were presented. A Christmas party, a visit to an ice cream factory, and the annual store banquet were among the social activities of the clerks, a number of whom under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Merritt have formed a Bible study class. Much credit is due Miss Meta B. Bergen as faculty adviser, for it is through her management that the success of the store has been made pos' sible.

CAFETERIA ARLY in November, when the doors of Poly's latest and most modern building were opened, the school became the possessor of a cafeteria un' equaled in the West. In keeping with Miss Hazel Magnuson's program of upftofdate service at cost, the building has been equipped with an electric refrigeration plant, a battery of five gas ranges and a threeftier electric oven to keep eight steamftable lines and four handout lines in daily service. With the help of thirtyffour student helpers and eighteen paid women assistants, twentyftwo hundred students are served each day. All tasks about the building have been efficiently systematized. Everything is hurry, but back of it all is system. In the handout two registers noisily pound out about fifty sales a minute. The main dining room has a seating capacity of seven hundred, and here five more registers and many more helpers are busy. In the kitchen everything is neat, white, and spotless.

He was a reader, and he thought deeply upon what he read. He was more than abreast of the timesg he was always ahead of the conservative element in his community, consequently always in the minority. The encouragement of debate on social and economic question is Dr. Rogers' A motive in offering a yearly prize of fifty Daniel Famine Rogers dollars in gold to the winner in an oratorif cal contest in the high school. He gave the portrait to the high school library that students might know that H man, an educator and a thinker, is the inspiration of the memorial. In every boy and girl who? honestly tries to win in this contest, the spirit of an untiring and devoted lover of truth is carrying on. Editor-'s Note: Miss Rogers' story comes to us as a result of our ref quest. It should make clearer the purpose of the prize and inspire to more sincere effort those who participate. NATIONAL HE group C contest was held at ORATORICAL CONTEST the Long Beach High audi' torium, May 7, 1926, at 8:00 P. M. The Long Beach contestant was William Fennell, who had com' peted in the same contest two years ago.

Wil' liam Fennell's creed is as follows: I believe in the flag of the United States of America, a symbol of freedom, equality, and justice, representing a nation of lawfabiding citizens, immortalizing a history of noble deeds and Godflike struggles for freedom, and inspiring all to greater devotion for God, for Country, for Humanity. I believe that since I love the flag, there devolves upon me the obligaf tion to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution against enemies from within and without, to promote peace at all times, to honor the great Americans who died to make possible the privileges that I enjoy today, and to do all in my power to contribute to the upfbuilding of a better nation for posterity.

The prospect of a successful year in chemistry was exceedingly bright, however. This- year the American Chemical Society offers a first prize of one hundred dollars to help defray the college tuition of the high point man. For nearly fifteen years the American Chemical Society has carried on these contests. The purpose in presenting them is To give public recogf nition to the study of chemistry in the high school-to emphasize the im' portance of fundamental workin elementary chemistry. The high schools of Southern California are indeed indebted to this splendid organization.

In all of its endeavors it has been successful because of its ability and perseverance. It numbered one hundred and ninetyffive members, boys and girls. This seems a rather unwieldy number, but under the skilful direction of Miss Charlot Brecht, it assumed the sound and aspect of a single harmonious voice. The chorus meets seventh period in the auditorium every day, and it is largely because of constant training that the chorus is as skillful as it is. The chorus has sung during the past year many diflicult and beautiful numbers. Some of these were The Lost Chord, Neapolitan Nights, The Heavens Resound, Sanctus, and The Recessional. On Iune 4, the chorus gave a huge cantata at the Municipal Auditorium, assisted by artist soloists. The officers for the first semester were Lesta Fankhouser, president: Luther Barton, vicefpresidentg Bob Lewis, secretary. Those for the second semester were Raymond Neveaux, president, Lesta Fankhouser, vicefpresif dent, Marcia Smith, secretary. The heads of committees were Marcia Smith, publicity, Ford Meteer, program, Hugh Davis, head usher.

Mr. George C.' Moore, director of the orchestras and bands of Poly High for the last twelve years, made the first orchestra the leading, accom' plished musical organization that it was. SECOND HE second or beginners' orchestra offers every ORCHESTRA boy and girl in the school an opportunity to gain musical experience and direction. Because of its improvement and progress, it played for several public engagements, prim' cipal of which was the junior play. The second orchestra has attracted favorable notice as being the largest high school orchestra in Southern California. ' The president was Cecil Varner, and the manager was Earl Matthews. The second orchestra as well as the advanced was directed by Mr. George C. Moore. MUSIC AND DRAMA 161 -MUSIC AND ASQUE AND SANDAL successfully DRAMA EVENTS opened the season with the onefact comedy, The Boy Comes Home . Evan Hellin and 'William Miller as the boy and uncle played their respective roles with distinction. Cthers in the cast were Anna Maud Morath, Betha Cox, and Cladys Kennedy. Miss Lillian V. Breed, Masque and Sandal adviser, directed the rehearsals. The rather serious skit, Finders Keepers, given by Masque and Sandal, showed how much cheaper honesty is than dishonesty. The part of the honest husband quite suited Donald Murray, who appears at his best in roles of a serious nature. Gladys Kennedyls impersonation of the dishonest Wife was a good contrast for Donald. As the unfortunate neighf bor, Anna Maud Morath played the part with much feeling. Through the efforts of the Music Department, a number of Artist Concertsl' were presented to the students under the auspices of the Student Body. Thurlovv Lieurance, noted composer of Indian music, and pianist, assisted by Edna WolleyfLieurance, soprano, and Miss Lillian Reed, flutf ist, appeared in the first Artist Concert . The day before the Christmas vacation the combined glee clubs and the chorus presented the annual Christmas Concert. This concert, with the exception of the opera, is the most important musical event of the year and requires much hard, earnest work on the part of both the participants and the directors. The glorious old Christmas carols, familiar to all, made up the program. To the Poly Civic Club is due the credit for bringing to assembly the Dixie Jubilee Quartet. These artists from the South delighted the students with singing, readings, and instumental solos. The proceeds went to the lane Harnett Fund. Near the close of the first semester, Masque and Sandal presented A Little Foul Play , a very clever English comedy. Mildred Williams and Raymond Brooks played the hungry young couple with vivacity and ap' preciation. Paul Bauman vvas true to type as the monocled Englishman, Ceorge Shibley was a satisfactory and appealing small butcher boy, William Miller was the voice heard back stage. Cne of the outstanding musical events of the year was a concert given by the Luboviski trio composed of Calmon Luboviski, violinist, Misha Cegna, cellist, and Morris lyolfson, pianist. The trio played several very beautiful numbers, and Mr. Luboviski gave a skilful rendition of tvvo charming solos. 162 CAERULEA '26 tlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllillllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIYIIIIIIITIIIIIIIIISIIIIlllllllIlllIII!III!IIIIIIIHIIIllllIIIIllllllIIIIIIIIIlIIIHIHIIIII1IIII1lIIIIIIIII N January the Oral Shakespeare class, under the able direction of Miss Lillian Breed, gave as its annual play, Twelfth Night , one of Shake' speare's cleverest comedies. Maxine Glass was a charming and gracious Lady Olivia. Charlotte Garlick was clever and adorable as the masqueradf ing Viola, alias Gaesario. Dorothea Bell played the tantalizing and plotf making Maria with much appreciation. Julietta Burnett made the clown a lovable and capricious fool, with a subtle touch of pathos. William Miller was, as usual, excellent as the laughterfprovoking Malvolio, egotistical and crossfgaitered. Kenneth Kirk and Kenneth Potts were a delightful and ridiculous comedy team as Sir Toby Belch and Sir Andrew Aguecheek ref spectively. Fabian was played with feeling by Donald Murray. Sturgis Riddle was the generous and buccaneering Antonio. Dexter Woodworth played well the kind sea captain. The role of oflicer was played in true policeman fashion by Bob Belcher. The two pages were Curio and Valenf tine, played by Helen Wild and Gladys Grimes. Mr. Moore's advanced orchestra contributed greatly to the enjoyment of the play. OPERA HE comic opera, The Chimes of Normandy, was the event of the year. It was the seventh opera presented by Miss Ethel Ardis, director of'music and showed a finish unequalled in the past. Miss Vinnie Gee assisted in the direction and Miss Sara Pepple was the accompanist. The opera was French, and had the characteristic dash and beauty associated with the French. Mr. Moore's advanced orchestra played the opera scores beautifully. N x I .

The play was a parallel of many of the problems of the average modern family. The cast 'was exceptionally well balf 4 anced, everyone playing his role with full appreciation of the part. Barbara othy Kennedy both made charming, sympathetic mothers. As was expected, William Miller added another link to his chain of sucf cesses. Mildred Williams with Velma Devins and Evan Heflin made a most amusing trio. Josephine Campbell and Raymond Brooks furnished the in' dispensible touch of romance. Dave Williams impersonated Ronald Murf dock, Evelyn Gray, Julia Murdock, Princess Booth, Rhoda, Kenneth Potts, Leo Day, Edward Green, Noel Darby, Clarence Smith, Robert Kimberly. The play was under the supervision of Lillian V. Breed. Glenn Burbank was business manager and Fred Mense was advertising manager.

Marguerite Coburn was essentially attractive and charming as the lovely heroine. Clarence Bequette played Judge Ralston. Kathryn Taylor was the dainty society debutante.

Gunn, Sgt. Griffin, Major Theodore Smith. lst Lt. Locke Wilson, lst Lt. Anson Argue BATTALION S ITH the opening of school, Sergeant Griflin STAFF had Poly's soldiers fitted out in khaki, and soon commands of squads right . rent the air on Burcham Field. Lieut. W. Theodore Smith was promoted to the rank of major. Lieut. Taylor Kent was promoted to the rank of adjutant and when he graduated, Lieut. Locke Wilson was appointed to fill the vacancy. Anson Argue, being a post graduate, held the rank of captain and was employed as special instructor in drill until his resignation. The real guiding force was the Professor of Military Science and Tac' tics, Capt. James C. Gunn. This year Captain Gunn instituted a new sys' tem of merit within the unit. Merits were given for participation in R. O. T. C. exercises, and demerits were given for misdemeanors. Sergeant Grifhn deserves praise for his work also. Besides assisting in the supervision of the drill, Sergeant Grifiin coached the boys on the rifle range and took care of the equipment. The R. O. T. C. continued the Retreat ceremony. The boys stood at attention in the ranks reverently as Old Glory was lowered every afterf noon during the playing of the StarfSpangled Banner by the band. There were two events this year which will make 1926 a memorable year in the history of the unit. The first of these was the acquisition of a site for an R. C. T. C. camp at Recreation Park. Now the boys have a club house for their activities and for weekfend trips. The other important event of the year was the R. O. T. C. convention held in Long Beach on April 29, 30, and May 1 under the auspices of the American Legion and the local R. C. T. C. Delegates from all over Calf ifornia assembled in Long Beach. The convention developed a spirit which it is hoped will give new impetus to the R. C. T. C. throughout the state. The crowning event for the local unit was the dedication of Camp Leonard Wood at Recreation Park the last day of the Convention. This was indeed a fitting climax with which to close a successful year. u- M R. O. T. C. 167 Capt. Warren Irving, 1st Lt. Richard Clemmer, 2nd Lt. Paul Purvine, Mr. Moore BAND HE R. O. T. C. Band has made an excellent showing this 5 year both in music and in military drill. It has been very fortunate in having an excellent set of officers. Capt. Daniel Schmidt started the band on its good record this year and made a ine reputation as a most courteous and efficient officer. Upon his graduaf tion in midfyear, First Lieutenant Warren Irving was promoted to the cap' taincy. Richard Clemmer became first lieutenant and Paul Purvine second lieutenant. These officers completed the official staff of the band. The band was again directed by Mr. George C. Moore, who has been in charge since it was first organized. Mr. Moore has trained a band this year of which he is truly proud. In addition to its musical benefits, Mr. Moore considers the band one of the best characterfbuilding influences in the school. The band entered the Eisteddfod Music Contest near the close of the year and carried off the trophy of victory. The Long Beach R. O. T. C. Band is the first in California to have played under the baton of the vvorld's greatest bandfmaster, John Phillip Sousa, who directed it in person when he was in Long Beach. 7 168 CAERULEA 26 .HllllIllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIHIIllllllIllHlllllllllIIIllllllllllllllllllllIIIIlIIIllllIIIIIIIIII1IIIIIIIIIIIIllIIllIIIHIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIHIIIlIIIIIIlllIIIIHIIllllIlll'l Capt.

The drill this year was varied as much as possible to make it more interest' ing. It consisted of squad, platoon, and company drill.

C. T. C., it is essential for the greatest success and eff ficiency that the leaders become acquainted and develop a spirit of friendliness and cofoperation among themselves. This need was filled by the Omega Kappa or Cilicers' Club. During the year the club, under the leadership of Major Theodore Smith as Com' mander, Major Vernon McGufhn as vicefcommander, Lieut. Carter Miller as Adjutant, and Lieut. Locke Wilson as treasurer, carried on its activities in a quiet but effective manner, providing various social functions for its members, initiating new officers, and conducting its business meetings. It was a noteworthy fact that the Omega Kappa surpassed all other fraternities in scholarship and merit record. The club deserves commendation for the spirit of comradeship and cofoperation developed among the student oHicers. JUNIOR HE junior Service Club, though organized late SERVICE CLUB in the year, became very active in pursuing its purpose, to create a better spirit among the men of the R. C. T. C., to give them social privileges which otherwise would be denied them, and to maintain the high standards to which all military organizations aspire. The club organized with spirited, efficient oflicers. Sgt. Henry Vaughn was elected president, Corp. Gardner Palmer, vicefpresidentg Sgt. Richard Ryan, secretary, and Sgt. Theodore Boyd, treasurer. Crack drill and wallfscaling squads were developed for competif tion with any squads of the local unit, other units, or military academies. 'v R. O. T.

The club boasted a good set of officers with Major Mazel Massagee, president, Capt. Gene Lawrence, vicefpresidentg Capt. La Verne McBride, secretary, and 1st Lieut. Francis Adams, treasurer. The club assumed charge of Ref treat every Wednesday afternoon and helped the R. C. T. C. whenever possible. With all its various achievements, the club feels that it has ac' complished many worth while things and made this year the most successf ful in its existence. The history of the discovery, colonization, and development of California from its inception as a province of the Spanish kingdom, through its existence as a portion of the Republic of Mexico, and then its place in the sisterhood of States of the American Union is a chapter in the annals of the world so heroic, colorful, and romantic as to be almost without parallel. -john Stephen McGroarty 172 CAERULEA '26 POLY RIFLE NDER the guidance of Sgt. Ben H. Griflin the TEAM Rifle Team of the R. O. T. C. trained diligently for the National Competitive Contest. The boys Hred on the local target range with the improved rifles. In the contest the team made a fair showing, demonstrating that the Long Beach unit was not a slacker in that activity.

X First row, Mr. Frazer. Mr. Sprong, Mr. Barkerg Second row, Mrs. Nutter, Mr. Ferrell, Mr. Bell, Mr. Huntg third row. Mr. Thomas. Mr. Comfort PHYSICAL EDUCATION NE aim of the department of physif DEPARTMENT cal education was to give every P boy in school a chance to enter into some kind of athletic competition. A basketball tourney, composed of ten teams under the auspices of the Interfclub Council, was staged. The regular spring interfclass track meet was held. Football had a hand in the extra sp-orts, a team known as the Class A squad being organized under the coaching of Norman Barker. Interfclass basketball was played at the begin' ning of the season to arouse interest in the sport and to bring out some talent for the various teams. Poly High had the name of possessing one of the largest athletic departf ments in the nation. Since Poly is a school of large population, many stu' dents indulged in the sports oilered. Football was supreme for three months with four teams in existence. The grid sport gave way to basket' ball after the Christmas holidays, and in March this activity ended. Folf lowing basketball, track commenced, and toward the end of this activity, baseball started. The minor sports: waterfpolo, swimming, golf, and ten' nis, were active from spring until the end of the year. Two additions were made to the coaching stall during the past year. Mr. Russell Sprong came from Missouri to Poly and took over the varsity football team. Mr. Walter W. Bell was the other new coach, coming from Washington to take up the duties of tutoring the middleweight basketball team to a championship. CMM ATHLETICS 5 177 YELL N A pep assembly at the beginning of the football sea' LEADERS son, George Reeves, Dave Williams, Wilbur Stan' ley were elected by popular applause of the stu' dents. These yell leaders kept the Poly spirit on tap for the remainder of the year at all of the major athletic contests. Since Williams had served the previous year as a member of the pep trio, he was honored with the office of head yell leader. VARSITY ITH Russell Sprong, a coach with a wonderful FOOTBALL record among prep schools in the Middle West, coming to Poly High as a new grid tutor, the Jackrabbit varsity squad started a heavy season with almost fifty fellows reporting for the first week -of practice. Captain Russ Painter and Al Fry were the only returning veterans to grace the team. The list of candidates was gradually cut down to about twentyffive fellows, most of the others going to the Class A squad. After two weeks of extremely hard practice, Coach Sprong's cohorts indulged in three prefseason tilts and then jumped into the Coast League schedule. Of the eleven games that were played, seven of which were league affairs, the local team lost three, tied one, and won seven. The San Diego eleven took the Coast League banner but was defeated later in the playoffs for the Southern California championship. The fact that the varsity team defeated the Pasadena Bulldogs, ancient rivals of Jackrabbit athletes, made the season, in the minds .of Poly students, a very successful one. 178 7 CAERULEA '26 The Long Beach team appeared very well balanced at all times during the season. The line was the greatest strength of the team's playing, and it was upon this department of the game that much was dependent. Al Fry, though not playing the spectacular game of the previous year, was a won' derful man at defense and interference. Bill Mittlestedt, who was elected captain of next year's team, proved to be the best ball runner, doing some wonderful work around the ends. Every one of the boys played good ball throughout the season and because of this superior work and the fight that was displayed, Poly's gridiron appearance was even better than had been expected. SANTA ANA-6, LONG BEACH-0 Poly lost her first league game of the season when Santa Ana took the contest, 6 to 0, before a large crowd on the Saints' gridiron. As if to avenge the defeats that the Jackrabbits had given his team the two previous years, Captain Ray Dawson intercepted a Poly pass and galloped more than half the length of the field to a touchdown. Not to be outdone, Mittlestedt got loose on an end run and raced sixty yards through a broken field to a touchdown, but he stepped out at the thirtyfyard mark, and the score was .4 ffm 9' AE: ,, t ATHLETICS a s Q 179 not allowed. Choppy Parke unloosed some nice thrusts through the Saints' line, but the good work was too late to do much damage. The Poly line showed its greenness throughout the game, letting the Santa Ana backs break through many times, but Thiede and Perrish upheld the Poly laurels by doing some spectacular tackle work. ALHAMBRA-Og LONG BEACH-27 In this game, it looked as if the fighting teams of olden days had ref turned to Poly. In the first home league game, the locals displayed a wonderful exhibition of fight. The game was a big scrap right from the start and was not so lopfsided as the score indicates. Al Maloney was the biggest star, snagging a Moor pass on the midffield mark and fighting his way through a horde of Alhambra defenders to a touchdown. He made another score later in the game on a short thrust at the line. The Jack' rabbit forward wall did its best work of the season so far, staving off the charges of the Moor backs. Doty, Brown, Williams, Painter, and Fry ex' hibited worlds of fight in advancing the oval down the Held for large chunks of yardage. Highstone, Thiede, and Hall were prominent on the tackling, and Williams did good work as defensive fullback. L sf . 1 Q YS Q5 X XX 'X N ' A l, ' X Y. A --,, ,AA GLENDALE-Og LONG BEACH-6 The Iackrabbits journeyed to Glendale with the idea that their op' ponents would be easy to defeat. The half ended with a scoreless tie, how' ever, neither team being able to do much in the way of making points. Fry tried three placement kicks in this period, every one of the boots being blocked. The locals did crash through the Dynamiter defense in the third quarter, and Mittlestedt sneaked over the line for the lone touchdown of the game. Long Beach let loose some nice passes, one of which was from Mittlestedt to Brown for twenty yards. Brown tore off thirty yards to a touchdowng but the score was not counted, as a Poly man had clipped an opponent. T SOUTH PASADENA-12g LONG BEACH-0 Fumbling proved to be the jinx that followed the Poly team around the field in this tilt. The locals' fumbling cost them the chance to make five touchdowns. Captain Mullins of the Tiger aggregation took most of the glory of the game when he scored the two touchdowns by his alertness and heavy linefplunging. Mittlestedt opened the game by running the Tiger kickoff back ninety yards before he was stopped. vis' 'Q . vg- ATHLETICS , 181 SAN DIEGO-28, LONG BEACH-7 Nearly three hundred local fans followed the Jackrabbit team to the southern city for this game. The Poly eleven entered the affair doped to fall hard before the strong Blue and White grid machine. After being shoved all over the field during the first half, the Jackrabbits staged the most wonderful comeback seen in local football circles for a long time. The Cavernen were on the defensive most of the second half. On a drive toward the hosts' goal line, the ball was fumbled on the eightfyard line. The Long Beach boys put the oval across in the second period, but the line was offside and the touchdown was not allowed. The Poly score finally came in the third quarter when passes and lone smashing worked the ball down the field with Mittlestedt going over for the six points. Fry conf verted the goal. PASADENA-Og LONG BEACH-9 In the best game of the season, Poly quite decisively triumphed over her traditional rivals. Sixtyffive hundred rabid grid fans viewed Long Beach's successful attempt to down the Bulldog for the third straight Jack' rabbit victory.

A few plays later he hit center on a quarterback sneak, broke away, and ran forty yards for the touchdown. Al Fry kicked a nice placement for three more points in the third quarter. The Poly line held the Pasadena team for four straight downs on the local onefyard mark in the second period. The entire team was working up to perfection in this game, with the forward wall doing some memorable work. Mittlestedt's end runs and Choppy's center smashes were big features of the affair, while Fry with his offense work and Captain Painter in backing up the Poly team also made things interesting. WHITTIER-Og LONG BEACH-7 The final game of the year was played in a sea of mud with the local eleven getting the only score when Mittlestedt skated and slid fifty yards to the goal line in the last quarter. The game was slow all the way through, but the Iackrabbits did the best work of the two teams in all de' partments of the ga-me. This fracas closed the grid season for the Poly teamg so all suits and material were stowed away to await the 1926 season. J -nav ,',.

After the varsity team had practiced for a week, about twenf ty men were sent down to the Class A heavyweight squad under the coachf ing of Norman Barker. Here the boys received regular football tuition and had a schedule with several high school teams in this locality. One of the biggest surprises of the season was this team's victory over the Alhambra varsity eleven. Coach Barker's men downed the Moors 21 to 0. In a league game, the Iackrabbit varsity beat them only 27 to 0. Winning three out of nine games was not such a bad record for the team when one considers that a lot of material for next year's varsity team was unearthed.

MIDDLEWEIGHT HE middlevvfeighti team had considerable FOOTBALL hard luck throughout the year, inasmuch as the coaches were changed and several valuable players were lost in the middle of the season. Cliff Meyer cap' tained the team and was one of the star backs. Fred Frazer took over the coaching reins and guided the boys through in good form for the rest of the season. Pete Archer managed the team. Considerable material was developed for next year's varsity. The two Meyer brothers performed in good style throughout the season as well as did Naughton, Cuthier, Williams, and Lewis. Maltby, Viets, Van Every, Shaw, Binns, Knox, and Reynolds formed a good line while Young, Clark, Neveau, Bonar, and Renius alternated at the different positions. SANTA ANA-12, LONG BEACH 15 The first league game was as thrilling as one could expect. With only three minutes left and the score tied 12 to 12, Cliff Meyer heaved a long -w-wuz. -, n 'ii , f?

The ball hit the crossfbar and fell over, leaving the visitors with all sails flapping. Cliff and Lorey both starred, gaining many yards on line runs. In the first half Maltby snagged a pass from Cliff and fell over the goal for a score. ALHAMBRA-Og LUNG BEACH-6 Playing on the Moors' backlot, the Poly boys came home with the second league victory hanging to their belts. The score came in the first quarter when Cliff tossed a pass to Naughton, who had crossed the goal line to receive it. Williams, a reserve back, uncorked some good end runs in the last quarter. GLENDALE-7g LONG BEACH-7 The junior Iackrabbits were given another tough battle and came out with a tie score. This affair was very evenly matched, neither side scoring , 1812? f l M Ti T 186 CAERULEA '26 until the second half. Cliff made the Poly touchdown after the ball had been lost on down on the Dynamiters' tenfyard line. The Meyer brothers, Outhier and Naughton, starred in the backfield, while Binns and Maltby did some clever work on the line. SCUTH PASADENA-6, LCNG BEACH-14 The first half of the RabbitfTiger game ended 6 to 0 favoring South Pasadena. Thelocal eleven came back at the half and displayed a different kind of football. Lewis snagged a pass from Cliff for thirtyffive yards. Cliff took the ball in receiving a punt and ran fifty yards through the South Pasadena team to Poly's first touchdown. The next score came when Naughton caught a pass from Lorey and sprinted sixty yards to the Tiger line. SAN DIEGC-165 LCNG BEACH-13 San Diego choked Poly's chance for a Coast League title when the visitors downed Coach Frazer's eleven in a game featured with a last quarter rally. The Jackrabbits scored both touchdowns in the first five minutes. A pass, Cliff to Maltby, for thirty yards started the rally when the latter fell over the goal. A few plays later, Lorey snagged a long San Diego pass and sprinted along the side lines for the second count. In the last period Cuthier lost the ball on a hard tackle, and Brown, visiting center, grabbed it and counted a touchdown. Pollack scored the second San Diego touch' down. PASADENA-16g LONG BEACH-O Pasadena took advantage of the absence of Cliff Meyer and Naughton and tr-ounced the middleweights. By speedy, clever playing, the Bulldogs counted a field goal three minutes after the affair had started. Poly threat' ened once but lost the ball by an intercepted pass. Maltby played well in his first attempt at a back position this year. Some good football was dis' played by Cuthier at safety, by Binns and Van Every at the guards, and by Reynolds and Williams at the wing positions. WHITTIER-13, LCNG BEACH-7 The last: game proved to be a rather sad one. Poly was completely lost without the services of Cliff Meyer. The Poets made their first score in the initial quarter, but Cliff changed the looks of things when he entered the game at the half. By Cliffs good playing, the ball was advanced down the field. Viets grabbed a pass and fell -on the onefyard line, from where Cliff bucked it over. The locals were just starting a big offensive drive toward the Poet goal when the game ended. t ' 1 ATHLETICS E 187 LIGHTWEIGHT LAYING a preliminary to practically every FOOTBALL varsity affair, Poly's lightweight football team turned in a good season. Of the eight games that were played, the locals won ive, lost two, and tied one. The boys started the season by taking a beating from Santa Ana. They staged a few more practice games and then were defeated by the Glendale team. South Pasadena was trounced badly and the Whittier game ended in a tie. The biggest fracas of the season was' the Pasadena game in which the Bunnies defeated the Bullpups 7 to 6. Dick Cline, of the city physical education department, coached the team in an able manner. Harold Drury was captain and quarterback and performed his duties in regular Drury style. Scharlin showed wonder' ful ability at the fullback position. Kid Johnson and Dilday were at the half positions most of the time. Atherton, Martinson, Chase, Green, Davenf port, Morrison, and Jackson were used on the line much of the time. Don Bayne managed the team. Opponents Long Beach Opponents Long Beach 0 ....

It was indeed a sad blow to the team and its loyal followers when these hopes were blasted by the Pasadena and the Whittier quintets, who spoiled the winning streak of the boys near the end of the season. The Pasadena game was one never to be forgotten. Neither team scored on field goals in the first quarter, which ended 2 to O in Poly's favor. It looked like another victory for the Jackrabbits at the end of the half with Long Beach leading 6 to 3. Fate seemed to help the Bulldogs in the third period, for three wonderful long shots by a Pasadena guard gave the hosts a lead that was never overcome. The Poly team fought as it had never before, but the game ended too soon leaving the Iackrabbits stranded 16 to 13. In the last league game Coach Prazer's boys suffered their third defeat of the season when the Whittier quintet spilled some more dope and easily nosed out the Iackrabbits 21 to 19. Virgil Hepp, the forward who helped the Poly team to win the Coast League last year, and Gerry Easterbrooks, a guard. from the same team were the two returning men. Hepp left the team after the South Pasadena game owing to the ninefsemester ruling. Callahan was elected captain of the quintet. He and Pete Osborn were the forwards after Hepp left. ATHLETICS .fi .

The Park team was composed of large fellows who towered above the Poly quintet. The game was a seefsaw affair through' out, but in the last few minutes, the Spartans jumped ahead of a short lead and won 24 to 22. Huntington Park won the Southern California title. Bill Davis and Forey Wilson were the forwards who bore the brunt of the scoring. Cliff Meyer captained the team and served guard duty with Henry Davis.

South Pasaf dena was a victim and the Pasadena team was downed 9 to 8 after a thrilling battle. The last game saw the locals win over Whittier. Captain Mobley, Murray, and Scharlin were best scorers. Young, Campbell, Johnson, Drury, Dilday, Harvey, and Daniel played consistently. Coach Sprong had charge of the midgets and Perrish was manager. VARSITY CLY'S horsehide nine finished rather low in the BASEBALL Coast League, but the boys showed good form in winning four out of seven league tilts. The team started out in good fashion at the beginning of the season, but suffered a bad slump after the first half. Numerous practice affairs in which the locals won were played. Santa Ana was the first league opponent to lose, while Glendale took the second walloping. South Pasadena was downed without much trouble. The fourth game proved the jinx for the team. Postponed for two weeks, the game with Alhambra was played during spring vacation on the Moor diamond. The Iackrabbit crew fell 5 to 1 before the strong opponents. 192 CAERULEA '26 lllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllIIIIlllIIIlIIIIlIIIlllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllIIIIIIIlIllllllIIIIIllIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIUI5 In the biggest game of the season, the San Diego team barely nosed out Poly 3 to 2. The locals led 1 to O for seven innings by the good twirl' ing of Talbert, but in the eighth frame the team broke and the visitors counted three runs. Pasadena won the next affair on the Bulldog diamond 5 to 1. ln the last game of the season, Whittier fell hard before the Poly nine. In this game, which ended 18 to 8, Talbert did some good work, striking out eighteen opponents. Only three lettermen came back to help the team, but a good array of material turned out at the beginning of the season. Russell Sprong coached the team. Fred Talbert served on the mound most of the time and was usually relieved by Bill Hutton. Tom Holley captained the team from third base. Eddie McAdam did nice work behind the bat most of the season with Crane substituting. The infield usually lined up as follows: Hutton, flrstg Pick, second, Holley, third, Mittlestedt, shortstop. Dryden, Meyer, Shepard, and Coleman helped at these positions. Maher, Bagler, Fleming, Sylvester, Yaisli, and Smith worked the outheld.

Long Beach was able to place only fifth in the annual meet, but several of the boys went on to the Southern California meet. The team started out well and won live dual meets, but Pasadena came to Burcham Field and defeated the locals. One of Barker's ambitions was to down the San Diego team. Long Beach came home from the southern city with a 5 8 to 5 5 decision'over their hosts, the local relay quartet decidf ing the meet. The Bulldog team was the only one able to down the jack' rabbits in a dual meet. Wendell Doty strained a tendon in this fracas and was out for the rest of the season. The Bulldogs later carried off the Coast League honors. San Diego placed second in this meet then took third in both the Southern California and the state meets. Captain Maltby led the team from the pole vault. His height was not passed in any dual meet and in the league affair he set a new Coast League record oft 12 feet, ZW. Maltby placed fourth in the Southern Calif fornia meet. Hansler and Diefendorf placed second and third in the league tilt but were defeated in the Southern California classic. Lewis Ballou did some nice work in the high jump, placing in the Coast League, but failed in the southern meet. He was a consistent pointfgainer all sea' son.

Finley usually was good for points in the dual meets. The 1926 season was started with two lettermen returning, but next year eight lettermen will probably compete. Some good material was def veloped during the season.. Other men who showed up well were Cap' linger, Loder, Childreth, Hayden, Greenwood, Cloninger, Tolshtrup, Gloef ckler, Youle, Mittlestedt, Reynolds, Bayne and Goss. Bob Lewis, a former Poly miler, managed the team. Little interest was shown in lightweight track but some good material for next year was uncovered. Marooka, Young, Sauressig, Potter, and Campbell participated while Kid Johnson was manager. CROSS-COUNTRY OLY'S crossfcountry' runners started work' RUNNERS ing before the track season. Coach Barker I had quite a good number of men to start out with, but this number gradually dwindled. The team competed in three meets. These were held in the streets of Los Angeles by the A. A. U. on separate dates. In the City Terrace race, Long Beach pulled through to second place. Peters, Davis, Rosenweig, Stewart, Lake, Beam, Hansler, and Marsh placed and were able to win their letters.

Venice, Hollywood, and Los Angeles High were all tied up in first place when the season ended. The local team had quite a good deal of hard luck throughout the season, losing to each of these three teams by just one point. After three practice tilts, Hollywood won a league game 4 to 3. Venice took the next league contest 3 to 2, but in the third Huntington Park lost 8 to 2 to Long Beach. L. A.

X' WRESTLING NE of the biggest special events on the Poly sport calendar was the staging of the first annual Southern California Interscholastic Champion' ship Wrestling Tournament in the Long Beach gymnasium. The local team of grapplers in taking six out of the nine championships annexed the Southern California title for Poly High. Several practice meets were ,staged with different college teams in order to prepare the boys for a stiff season. Only three league matches were staged besides the championship tourney. In the Hrst affair, Long Beach won six out of eight bouts from Glendale in the inland gym. The lackrabbit grapplers completely swamped the Alhambra team in the second league battle, winning all of the eight bouts.

Poly defeated Santa Ana and South Pasadena but lost to Alhambra and Glendale in league matches. Interest in the net game went up considerably owing to the fact that more tournaments were staged this season than in any previous years. Under the direction of the Poly tennis team, four singles tournaments and two doubles tournaments were staged. More than 125 different boys competed in these tourneys. There were 'eightyffive entries in the first annual City Junior Championship Tournament. George Newby won the title after a hard battle with Wilbur Stanley. It is planned to have this tournament staged every year. ' The team entered the Coast League tournament at Glendale, but George Newby, former captain, was the only player able to win. He placed second in this meet. Later Newby went to the Southern California tourney at Ontario and was defeated in the semifinals. The team usually lined up in the following order: Newby, Stanley, Captain Sweet, Caneer, Stimson, Bradley, Jones, and Chaffee. Edwin C. Franklin coached the team while Harold Rickard was manager. One of the biggest features of the season's play was the development of the interest in tennis. Plenty of material will be on hand for the team next season.

In doing this, the Long Beach golfers defeated the Alhambra team on the Midwick course. Although it was not necessary for the boys to get together for pracf tice, they did put in plenty of time practicing on the Virginia and the Munif cipal courses. The team was not called together until the spring. A small tournament was staged on the San Pedro course to determine the placing of the men on the team. The Hrst practice match was with the Catalina High team on the Virginia course. The Poly team won all five matches, sending the visitors home sooreless. The initial league tilt saw the locals journey to San Diego to take the Hilltoppers dowrf for five matches. Playing on the Catalina course, the Iackrabbits were defeated in five matches when they mixed with the Islanders. A bad dirt course helped the locals to lose. The Glendale High team was next defeated by Long Beach. The boys just barely won this affair, taking three out of five matches. Alhambra then lost to the Poly quintet 4 to 1 on the Midwick course. The Pasadena team forfeited to Long Beach. Bill McNamara was the first man on the team. Hensley, McCook, Bixby, and Sylvester came next in order.

I Y - 1 9 i TH G6 THE HILL 212 CAERULEA '26 'Y ff, or I I .-a if 2 II I First Semester-Ah! Everyboy and Everygirl, are you both willing to tell Everystudent all the great happenings in this old audi' torium? Everygirl-I'll answer a yes for both of us. Everyboy-Certainly. Everystudent, we have had a ripping time all along in this old assembly hall. We chose our yell leaders, Dave Wil' liams, Wilbur Stanley, and George Reeves. We boys, from the the beginning, planned to have them all in the redfheaded class. All of Pasadena's have black hair, the two colors made a big contrast at the Long BeachfPasadena game. Everygirl-The plays and the little acts have all been perfectly lovely! From the very dramatic performance, The Boy Comes Home -Evan was our blond hero-to the fluffy, twinkling sisters from the State Theater, we have been entertained exceedingly! Everyboy-Yes. And don't you remember the way we yelled! Our foot' ball assemblies went overn with a big wow , Gur yelling sounded like the roar of a dozen lions stranded in a mire, and I don't mean maybe either. When Les Cummins spoke-well -I don't believe there is one of us now that wouldn't give his life for our school. The song rallies, to quote Everygirl, were perfectly marvelous . Everygirl-Now, you needn't tease me! Really, though, the music of Thurlow Lieurance and Mrs. Lieurance made me almost wish I were an Indian singing those plaintive melodies. Everyboy-And the Country Gardens has been running through my head ever since the orchestra gave its concert. I guess that's all, Everystudent, for the first quarter anyhow. Second Quarter-Now Everyboy and Everygirl, you know I am still in the first semester, therefore you must finish telling every stu' dent about the assemblies. Everygirl-I'll answer yes for both of us again. Everyboy-To begin with, the Senior play assembly was a scream, because of the funny slide cartoons and Bill Miller's bright cracks. AUDITORIUM 213 Lllllllllllllllllllllllll Everygirl-But you forget about Miss Gogerty and her Irish harp! She did have such a sweet voice. One thing reminds me of another. Wasn't the Christmas concert a beautiful production? It was really heavenly. Everyboy-You certainly are right! The Luboviski trio was certainly great, too. Calmon Luboviski seems to put his whole soul into the violin. Everygirl-Yes, but you also forget the funny assemblies. The debate, Resolved, that a wienie is better than an icefcream cone for a sophomore, made everyone hold his sides with laughter. I certainly sympathized with poor handsome Ray Brooks in a Little Foul Play. I should like the chicken myself. Everyboy-It was quite an impressive ceremony to see the new commisf sioners installed. And didn't the boys blush when they ref ceived their school letters at the award assemblies? Everygirl-I should say they did, especially Painter. Now we're done, Second Quarter, for Second Semester is coming to meet us. Second Semester-Why hello! I heard from First Semester that you two had earned good grades. Everyboy and Everygirl-Oh, yes, sir, we studied very hard. Second Semester-I had been talking here with Third Quarter, and I am sure that you will have to refresh his memory about the assemblies which occurred during his quarter. Everyboy and Everygirl-We are glad to be of service to him. Third Quarter-I knew that you wouldn't mind. Shoot away. Everygirl-Well, since ladies are supposed to be nrst, I'll begin. The R. O. T. C. band directed by Mr. Moore thrilled me as much as martial music could, and while I am talking of music, I must not forget Branson De Cou and his beautiful dream pictures. Everyboy-Yes, De Cou's Dream Pictures did make a fellow want to strike for Europe! Say, the plays were slick. The sorority play, The Burglar, was dandy, and so were the Bedroom Suite, Schooldays, and Velma Devins' Melody Maids . Everygirl-Yes indeed! But wasn't the Boy Magican positively uncanny? I didn't know what to expect next. I was rather uncomfortf able, to say the least. Everyboy-I wasn't very much at ease myself. Say, weren't the Constituf tional Contests great? 214 llllllIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII CAERULEA '26 Everygirl-They were very excellent. One might call them all onefplus. Everyboy-The Whittier and U. S. C. men's glee clubs certainly can sing. Everygirl- It thrilled me to think I sometime might be a part of such a wonderful organizaton. We are nearly finished, Everyboy. But how about Stolberg and his Music Mastersu? To me it was the crowning assemf bly of the year, and the best assembly the Girls' League ever had. Everyboy-You're right, Everygirl. I see Fourth Quarter looming in the distance, and now I'll say goodbye to you, Third Quarter. Third Quarter-Thank you a thousand times. Everygirl-Goodbye. Second Semester-Ah! You are right, Everyboy and Everygirl. Here Everyboy comes our most beloved of all the year, Fourth Quarter. and Everygirl-Yes, he is the most welcome, because we are glad to be free to go in bathing or do as we Wish after he is gone. Fourth Quarter-Ah, my old friends, Everyboy and Everygirl! I wager you are glad to see me? Everyboy and Everygirl-Very much so! Everygirl-I suppose your memory is as bad as that of all the other Quarf ters, so Everyboy and I will tell you of the assemblies. Fourth Quarter-Thank you very much. Everyboy-Well, you' see we haven't had so many assemblies because it's Everygirl- near the end of the year, and everyone has been so rushed. Yes, we've had only a few, but of course they've all been excel' lent. Now that Spanish Debate was a scream! I laughed until I cried and so did Everyboy. Everyboy-And how about the Debate assembly? Weren't Charlotte and Everygirl- Everyboy- Everyboy Dave darling? I doubt if I ever put my hand into a garbage pail, though. ' If I had a husband who expected me to economize-well-I just wouldn't do it! Maybe yiou'd have a motherfinflaw! But really now, Every' girl, that assembly, U. S. C. put on was a honey. Wasn't it? Yes, some of us will probably be going there nert year. Everyboy-Fourth Semester is leaving. Goodbye, Fourth Semester. Everygirl-Fourth Semester is fading. Hurrah!

WEEK 12 Alternating between the Near East Relief, the Santa Barbara Relief, the Jane Harnett Fund, and the school cafeteria, Poly is liable to face an individual, separate, and collective bank- ruptcy. WEEK 13 This week has been full of class and club parties, at which one gives someofne else a ten cent gift and then has a lurking suspicion that the present he got cost only five cents. WEEK 14 This week might be called the What-did-vou-do? Week. An- other rival question was: What are you going to do New Year's night? Between questions we hurry around and thank those thoughtful individuals who sent us Christmas cards. Incidentally we go to classes so that we shan't forget he room number. 1 Q.

The printing classes did most of the folding of Caerulea. Because of an error the name of Howard Smith with his activities was placed opposite the picture of Beverly Smith on page fiftyfseven.
