The newly formed commercial department had 110 pupils and two teachers the first term. In 1896 Mr. John H, Francis was placed at its head. The popularity of the course led to such a rapid increase in students that in 1900 a separate com- mercial high school was organized in the fourteen- room building on North Hill Street opposite the old Los Angeles High. ln 1904 it was entirely separated and renamed the Polytechnic High School. The present main building on Washing- ton Street was completed during the summer of 1905 and occupied in September. In June there had been an enrollment of 600, but when the new quarters were ready in the fall, 1500 pupils applied for entrance. This number soon rose to 1000. The night school opened in February, 1906, with an enrollment of 700. Several present members of our faculty were on the roll of instructors in 1905. Mr. Wagner, Mr. Locke, Mr. Twining, and Mr. Faithfull have stood by Poly for all her twenty-live years of existence. Many students will also recall Miss Kate Smith and Miss Sanborn, who left us only a year or two ago. The well-known and beloved Mr. Francis was principal until 1910 when he ac- cepted the position of superintendent of city schools. Mr. Birney H. Donnell was our first vice-principal. In 1908 Mr. Dunn, who had begun his Polytechnic career as a science teacher, replaced him. Then Mr. Dunn succeeded Mr. Francis as principal. Mr. W. L. Richer was Mr. Dunn's first vice-principal, serving until 1914, when Mr. Foley from Le Conte junior High School filled his place. ln 197.5 Mr. Foley went to Hollywood High, and Mr. Goodsell, a physics teacher at Polytechnic, took the position. Miss Katherine B. Ross, our first woman vice-principal, officiated from 1905 to 1911. Following her came Miss Kate Smith, and three years later, upon her resigna- tion, Miss Adele Humphrey, who had just been made head of the newly organized department of journalism, was appointed. Mr. Couch, registrar, began his work February 3, 1916. Mr. Dunn and Mr. Wagner deserve honorable mention on the faculty roll, for neither during his long career has ever been absent for even a single day. 1 glga.. PRESENT LOCATION OF THE SCHOOL The site which is occupied by our school has a more romantic history than most of those who attend Polytechnic realize. In early Spanish days it was part of a large ranch, in the midst of which grew the rubber tree which still remains, an ancient landmark, on the east side of our grounds. The tree is estimated to be at least 150 years old and was probably planted by one of the first of the early settlers. Of the species there are only one or two possible rivals in the entire state of California. A slight idea of the monarch's size can be obtained from the following measurements: height, 85 feet, trunk, 33 feet in circumference, the roots, covering an area of over 60 feet above ground, and the limbs having a spread of at least 1 IS feet. Later this locality was developed into Barnard Park, a beautiful orange grove subdivision. In 1904 its increasing population made it a strategic educational center. Since the people of Los Angeles bonded themselves for the erection of the original main building, the area of the campus has considerably expanded and the number of buildings has been multiplied many times over. In 1908 the site of the Art Building was purchased and plans of the structure drawn by our own architectural students. Former President Taft, who was then touring the country, turned the first shovelful of dirt, and the building was opened for occupation in 1909. By 191 1 the problem of larger accommodations again presented itself, and Harmony Hall, once an elegant residence, was purchased and remodeled for classrooms. In 1919 the electrical engineering department built a house of two stories, to serve as their laboratory for inside wiring. The five most recent additions to the school have all been made since 1910. The gymnasium was completed in 1911, the English Building and the audi- torium in 1915, and the Science and Domestic Science Buildings in 1916. These last five large units are modern and well-equipped. STUDENT GOVERNMENT Shortly after the beginning of Polytechnic in 1905, a serious disciplinary case was brought before Mr. Francis. It had long been his dream to put school government into the hands of the students themselves, and he set out to make his dream come true. When the principal called a faculty meeting before which he proposed his un- heardof plan, some of the teachers were enthusiastic, some skeptical and some de- nounced it as utterly impossible, yet all were deeply interested, and they voted to give self-government a chance. From the first it was a success. Year by year it has been perfected and its rules adapted to the immediate needs of each student body. Poly- technic is well-known for its pioneer work in student administration. In 1908 an acid test of the effectiveness of self-government was made. The teachers were given a visiting day, but the fact was not announced to the students. The order throughout the day and the success with which the students carried on the classes on their own initiative were enough to prove the validity of student-made rules and the value of self-government. ---s2l19lS+- ORGANIZATIONS ' ' The governmental powers of the students of the school are vested in an Associated Student Body Organization, which is potentially a popularly elected cabinet of twelve members representing the primary organized departments. It consists ofa president, vice-president, secretary, presidents of the Ionian Society, Boys' and Girls' Leagues, Boys' and Girls' Self-Governments, Board of Student Finance, Board of Publicity, Scholarship Society, and the Manager of Publications. The A.S.B.O. as a working group was first established in 1909. Through many gradual changes our present form has come into being. All clubs whose constitutions are on file with the A.S.B.O.secretary are officially recognized as secondary organizations. Each of the primary organizations has an interesting history all its own. The Ionian Society is the oldest, having been founded in 1896. Formerly, each pupil was required to appear before the members, composed of the upper classes, at least once before graduation. Though this is no longer possible, the society maintains as its purpose the promotion of interest in literature and the art through student presenta- tion. The Girls' Society, a predecessor of the Girls' League, was founded in 19o7.. All girls of the school are included in its membership and the making of friends is the keynote of all the functions of the league. The Boys' League intends primarily to promote clean sportsmanship. Maintenance of a maximum of discipline with a minimum of restraint is the purpose of both Self-Governments. The Scholarship Society is an honor group composed of those students meeting the membership requirements in recommended grades and service to the school. TRAD1T1oNs Most colorful of Polytechnic's cherished traditions is the ancient rivalry with Los Angeles High School. In days past all contests were bloody. Now only a friendly spirit of keen competition prevails. Symbolizing the one-time bitterness of strife is the tombstone, dating from Poly's victories in 1907. L.A. has tried in vain to capture this memorial of her defeat. For many years it has lain hidden with Nick as custodian. He alone may permit a rare view of the relic. Among other traditions is the school emblem designed by Mr. Faithfull. The cog- wheel and anvil, representing the mechanic arts, are an appropriate symbol of Poly- technic, the pioneer school in these lines. The school song, adapted by Mr. Anderson and Miss Humphrey, expresses the traditionary loyalty of Polytechnic students: Hail, Polytechnic High! Our Alma Mater dear! We will praise thy name, we will chant thy fame, 'Till the whole wide world must hear. Life the chorus, speed it onward, over hill and dale To the spirit true of the Gold and Blue, Hail, all hail! Finally the ideals of the school, upheld through all the years of its existence, are embodied in the motto which has become the watchword of every loyal student, Victory With Honor. glzolgt..

Q MI5 I ---miial A II! fil23l3+-- A To go back through the years and give a summary of all that has gone to make Polytechnic what it is today would require some time and effort on the part of anyone. There comes, however, very vividly to the minds of some whowerehereatthebeginning, a realization of the dynamic force in the person of Mr. Francis, that was instrumental in originating and establish- ing their educational institu- tion which will always stand as a monument to its beloved founder. Because of the type of work and the courses offered to both boys and girls, the school aroused a nation-wide interest and this forward movement in education attracted the atten- tion of leaders in all lines of activity. To the school came many who never before con- templated continuing their ' education beyond the eighth grade. They saw new opportunities open before them if they had the necessary prep- aration. The long lines of pupils waiting for admission on opening days gave evidence of aroused student interest. Interesting as was this new educational movement, as expressed in the school curriculum, there must be added another factor that attracted attention to Polytechnic from many quarters. Student body organizations were effected and these working together under the wonderful humanizing influence of Mr. Francis developed a school spirit that became proverbial. During these years it was fully demonstrated that the cooperation of the student body could be secured through their organization wisely supervised. Hosts of alumni rejoice in the fact that they had the privilege of participating in the beginning under such a leader. W. A. DUNN. r+el241s+ Happiness in our work is , ef' considered the most desirable i state we mortals can attain. l Polytechnic High School was founded twenty-five years ago by an enthusiastic, joyous, and creative mind -that of John H. Francis. He gathered about him a dynamic group of professional educators, people who were in teaching as a life work, not as a stepping stone to another profession. For five years Mr. Francis Was, in truth, the Big Chief, as he was lovingly called by his co-workers and by the youth gathered about him. He tried many interesting experi- ments in his efforts to bring education and life nearer to each other.These experiments live to day in Polytechnic, and in many other schools which have profited by his pioneer- ing. Though he himself moved on to larger fields after his happy half-decade of extra- ordinary success, all of the heads of departments and many of the teachers remained at their posts and are here to celebrate the silver anniversary. During twenty years, one of those heads, Willis A. Dunn, translated first into vice- principal and then into principal, has maintained and fostered the happiest group of students and teachers one could possibly wish to find. Good will in general and a good will to accomplish the worth while are precious assets to any institution. Thanks to our founder and his successor we have them in a high degree. Our Alumni are a living tribute to these two teachers. This year, which marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of Poly's life on the present site and under the present name, is bringing back to us as members of the Alumni Board, a group of successful men and women who are pledging themselves to service for the school. The future looks very bright. ADELE HUMPHREY. ..,Q1:251g,.. Twenty-five years of con- tinuous educational service is an accomplishment of note. Retrospect shows that this in- stitution has grown from one building to ten. During these years of activ- ity many temporary wooden structures have been replaced by buildings of the most mod- ern construction. In order to provide room for this growth, the campus has been enlarged and beautified, All of these facts clearly indicate a healthy physical activity which is pleasing to all interested in this school and in the advance- ment of modern education. Twenty-live years ago the citizens of this fair city were shocked when the Board of Education proposed building a high school on Washington Street. Many people thought that such a school would be a white elephant on some- body's hands and never would be used. Today Los Angeles City has thirty-one senior high schools and many are running to capacity. Prophetically Mr. Francis wrote in the Annual of 1905, Our city is moving for- ward with great strides in industrial and commercial importance, but we all believe she is only entering upon her greatest era. I am sure that not only the city but the school as well, has gone far beyond his fondest dreams. What the next quarter-century will bring is hard even to guess. Undoubtedly many changes will come, but surely the same loyal Poly spirit will filter down through the years and young men and women will cherish and revere the name of Polytechnic High School. J. G. GOODSELI. . Anniversaries have three phases, the celebration which usually attracts most atten- tion, the past which is a rec- ord of good, bad, or indifferent accomplishments, and the fu- ture which is filled with hopes and aspirations toward the final fulfillment of an ideal. We are proud of Polytechnic's history for the past twenty- flve years. The present phase, the cele- bration of the twenty-fifth anniversary, brings to our attention the accomplish- ments of thousands of our graduates who swarm into all lines of endeavor, and the hundreds of teachers, essen- tial factors in our school. But the most important part of an anniversary is the greater part that comes after now, The past cannot be changed except that it is in- terpreted in the softer and more considerate light of rem- iniscence. It is easy to look back. It is both easy and enjoyable to celebrate the present. It needs only a rear sight mirror to serve in both cases. But of the greater part-the future-we are taxed to the utmost to idealize, plan, project and realize a bigger re- sponsibility and a greater service. Optimism, visions, dreams-the motive forces of progress-take the place of reminiscence. As a result, new educational fields are entered, the scope of our general activities is broadened. The high school of the future, if it remains an institution supported by the public and for the public, will need to serve this public in such a way as to produce happy, progressive, productive citizens, free from educational aristocracy and snobbery.

It is too often the case that we do not become aware Of this truth until after the di- ploma of graduation has been handed us, too often we just slip by. ' 'I once likened Poly- technic to a great tree with her branches of learning shel- tering us from the storms of ignorance. One who stays out in the storm when protection is available is not only fool- ish, but cannot expect to sur- vive. The tree stands ready to protect us all. To live worth- ily, we must be able to under- stand life. Understanding is education. Here at Polytechnic oppor- tunity knocks not once, but many times. Our faculty, our courses of study, our entire working plan is available to every boy and girl entering the school. Does it not seem a criminal waste to come day in, day out, with no objective, satisfied with just get- ting by' '? This semester Poly has climaxed twenty-five years as an institution of learning. For this quarter-century she has molded life after life into noble citizens. Within her walls we may armor ourselves to carry on the ideals of right living wherever we may be. My message is a message that Polytechnic gives to us all. She urges us to remember these truths: To acquire the best, we must give our best. To secure an education, we cannot offer a material price, we must earn it by our faithful effort. To learn to live, we must live to learn. ROBERT T. WICKERSHAM, W'3o. , , Our greatest asset is youth. Youth gives us the tremen- dous opportunity of making a good beginning in the fixing of habits that will be invalu- able to us in later life. We should try in these years to develop qualities of Character which are necessary to achieve success, ambition, courage, and love of knowl- edge. We cannot begin too early to understand these three great virtues-ambi- tion, as we must have a pur- pose in life, courage, for he who hesitates is lost, and love of knowledge so that we may find our place of service in this world. Ambition implies a gcaal, something to strive for. It is the inspiration of the hard work necessary to get one anywhere. Feel that nothing can keep you back if you mean to go forward. Remem- W3' ber that ambition is the driv- ing force along life's pathway to the stars, a pathway lighted by the rays of hope that spring from the heart of man. If we are to face life frankly, we must be of good courage. Confidence in yourself will help you to overcome whatever difficulty must be met. In striving for success sieze upon opportunities with eagerness, with zeal, Be willing to run the risk of danger or defeat. Remember, It is not the gales but the set of the sails that determines where we go. Let us gain as much knowledge as possible of the work we are to do. Let us con- centrate on understanding its service to the world, for no knowledge can be worth- while unless it makes the world a better place to live in. Let us also keep our minds open to know the work of our fellow-men in order not only to help ourselves but to help them. In this way we can promote the cooperation which makes for world progress.

This class of thirteen, working three times a week, decided to undertake the task of publishing a weekly paper. A contest was held to determine a suitable name for such an enterprise. The contest was Won by Miss Mabel Wishard, now known as Mrs. Charles Elliott, of Los Angeles, who submitted the name of The Poly Optimist. The students organized themselves in such a way that every phase of school life was covered each week and news was gathered from every available source. In September of 1913, the first issue of The Optimist was published under the editorship of Frank Taylor, who still follows the literary work. I The editor-in-chief holds his post for ten weeks, since that is the only method by which a number of worthy students may ever hope to gain the experience offered in the work of that ofhce. The assistant editors and sport editors are also advanced and positions changed at the end of each ten weeks. For the term of Winter '30, Virginia Fenn and Jack Fovvlston held the chief editorship in the order named, and both proved themselves entirely capable and successful. The sports editors for that term were John Gibbs and Wilbur Grubb. For the term of Summer '30, Harriette Dern and Harriette Cooper enjoyed success as editors-in-chief. The sport editors were Dario Robinson and Pete Lang. The completion of the year 1930 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of Polytechnic. For a quarter of a century our school has served as a means of education and enlightenment for those who would learn. Thousands have here pursued knowledge and secured what they sought. Retrospect shows that Polytechnic has been the means of enlarging the lives of these young men and women and offering them opportuni- ties to make a more useful place for themselves in their communities. Never before has the old adage Knowledge is power been so true or carried such forcefulness as today when institutions like Poly- technic are open to young people. It is remarkable to view the l effect that this school has had upon its students. Indeed it has prepared them for a great P many lines of work in the busy world. But it has also established a bond between itself and the students that can never be broken. Here lasting friendships have been made. Carefree day, a priceless part of the lives of students, are precious memories. One commonly associates these conditions with college life, but high school today develops as strong and lasting associations as used to be true only of institutions of advanced work. Since the syste- matic training of the faculties for the many is possible in the high school, then the high school takes on a new importance. Longings, hopes, and expectations of thous- ands of Poly students are associated with days spent here. It has been the shrine of some of the happiest pilgrimages of the mind. It is remembered by alumni all over the world who show their interest through constant visits to its halls oflearning. Though the students may change, the scenes shift, and the faculty move on, the students are still drawn back by a constant loyalty and love. Twenty-five years does not represent an end. Rather it is just the beginning. Our school stands for continued preparation for service, for broadening experiences and for a better understanding of the knowledge, of the associations which make high school school days so important a part of modern life. DANIEL STEVENSON, Editor-in-Chief ..,iI48155... History of the Annual As a new undertaking and a venture of over-whelming size, the first annual of Polytechnic High School was printed in 1905. In the embryonic stage its development in no way equalled its successors, yet it was a brave attempt and, in comparison with the many difficulties encountered, it was a great achievement. It was through such noteworthy efforts that the annual received its start, and in the same spirit has since advanced into the present Polytechnic Student. The annual was first published as a booklet of school news, and gives one an interesting description of school life some twenty-five years ago. As a recognition of his leadership and of his ideals, the portrait ofj. H. Francis, our first principal, was given a prominent place. It is now fitting that the twenty-fifth annual of the institution which he founded be dedicated to him in behalf of his services to education. From the first the annual presented a wealth of information concerning school activities and school fashions. In scanning the first numbers, one is sure to notice the changes in style that have developed. But the graduates, although different in dress, have that same do-or-die look of conquering the world. Later, in 1907, following the construction of a beautiful new building, the quality of the Annual rose as a spirit of intense activity spread throughout the school. The third volume of the Polytechnic Student was a much more finished year book and showed a notable advancement for such a short existence. It is beyond a doubt the finest of the earlier annuals, rivaling many of the later ones in cover design and scope. Another notable book was that of 1918, the year which marked the entrance of the United States into the World War. This splendid edition was dedicated to those brave boys who so willingly offered their lives when their country called them. Gradually as time went on, changes were made to keep up with the developing years. The sections were enlarged, more art work, and new feature pages were added until the annual of today makes its appearance with all the complex phases of school life recorded. The Polytechnic Student of 1930, continuing the work started a quarter of a century ago, expresses the effort of its staff to reach the heights to which its first editors aspired.

Let us look back for a period of years. The alumni were in reality organized in 1898, when the first group of twenty-two young men and women were graduated from the Commercial High School. The present graduates, however, date from the beginning of the present school, in September 1905, when the original Polytechnic High School was opened on its present site. The entire graduating enrollment now consists of approximately eight thousand members. The majority of the earlier Alumni are in the business world. Some are striking out for themselves, others labor for an employer. Most of them have families. What- ever their duties, they endeavor to accomplish them to the best of their ability. Whoever they are, whether they occupy a position of fame and success, or whether they are unknown members of the mass, they make themselves felt on the side of progress. The purpose of the Polytechnic Alumni Association is to keep old Polyites in touch with their Alma Mater. They are organized in an eflicient and business-like way, with the link of common loyalty, into an effective force for the service of the school. This purpose is fostered by the Polytechnic Alumni Advisory Board, made up of repre- sentative members from various graduating classes. This Board's present personnel includes Maurice R. Leech, president, Clara A. Leech, vice-president, Hildegard Traub, secretary, Knute Thorsen, treasurer, Betty Thorsen, director of programs, Antoinette Weber, director of banquets, Helen Trinler, director of dances, Edward O'Malley, director of publicity, Arthur B. Dan- ner, editor of the Recorder, Anna Mason Vaughan, registrar, and Fred Vaughan, Anna Cohen, Frank Frank, Walter Fisher, Charles Cox, Dorothy Moriarty, and Robert Wickersham are aides on these committees. The two main events of the Alumni social calendar, the mid-winter dance and the yearly reunion, are sponsored by the advisory board. All details, large and small, come under its supervision. The annual reunion, which includes a banquet, auditorium program, and a dance, is largely attended. This year's affair was held on June 6. lt is through the medium of these reunions that the members continue old friendships and the contact with the school environment. A bond of union at present is the united efforts to collect funds with which to purchase a bronze bust of the founder of Polytechnic High School, and the author of the intermediate or junior high school idea, John H. Francis. This year, 1930, is the Silver Anniversary. The next, the Golden Jubilee, twenty- five years from now, will be even more precious. Each passing year adds something to the annals of our history, and impresses our deeds upon the memories of coming generations. The Alumni are of material aid in promoting the interests of the school which never forgets them, and, even more needless to say, they never forget their Alma Mater. The results achieved by them are an added stimulus for those now in Poly. --tSl54l?t AMONG THE ALUMNI OF TODAY CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Wendall Morgan, S'z9, Polytechnic Ephebian, scholarship seal bearer, commence- ment speaker.

The Class of Winter '30 Attainment Through Endeavor The Class of Winter Thirty has truly been one that has lived up to its motto, Attainment Through Endeavor. It has succeeded in many different ways. The win- ning of the Faculty Scholarship Trophy is only one of the honors captured. The hold- ing of most of the offices in the Associated Student Body Cabinet is another. Through hard work on the part of the committee and the fine cooperation of the class, the senior sweaters were obtained ahead of any previous senior record. These are a few of the achievements. Brown and Gold were the class colors, and what a hit they made with everyone! Many teachers and outsiders said they were the most practical that any winter class has ever had. The sweaters, a solid brown with a gold stripe around the neck, wrists, and waists, looked very well on all of us. The emblem was designed to represent the school's mechanical studies. The class participated in many social functions among which skating parties seemed to be the most popular. Two theater parties were also held. The reception given for the class of Summer ,Z9 was a great success, and that tendered the Winter 'go class by the Senior B's will linger long in the minds of the guests. lt was a htting close to a year of delightful social activities. The rivalry between the senior classes was keen but friendly. The athletic honors were about evenly divided. Our rivals won the Tug-o-War both times, also the Girls' Basketball Series, while our boys won the Senior A Basketball Series. A Track Meet was held in the Senior B term which our friendly enemies won. Although We didn't always have the Victory, our Honor was upheld. The spirit within the class was above criticism. A whole-hearted cooperation was always given the officers. There were capable leaders during the Senior B term, and equally capable officers for the Senior A term. The various committees were as fine as any class has ever had. Each of the members is to be thanked for the splendid way the different phases of the class life and business were carried out. The Class gift, which Summer '19 and Winter '30 presented to the school, was a life-size portrait of Mr. Dunn, our beloved principal. The two classes cooperated to secure this most appropriate tribute. The portrait hangs in the auditorium, a symbol of the admiration and the love the classes have for the head of the school. Our song, the words and music of which were written by a number of the talented members of the class, was beautiful in thought as well as melody. Every time we sang it, a strange inexpressible feeling was aroused, partly of joy, but more of sadness. All of the members will remember their class song as the prettiest they ever sang or will sing in the future. The two advisers, Mrs. Fennessy and Mr. Pratt, were dearly loved by the class. No one could have ,wiser or more helpful leaders than these two teachers, who were true friends to all. Each and every one of us will go out from Polytechnic with fond memories of the many days spent here, and especially those of the last year will be cherished. It was a wonderful climax to a wonderful school career. ..5,gl:561gs.

TIME The Present. One vvinter's night. Director: Miss Minna Mae Lewis i , , W , ,WW 4 v NQQI7 Zlgg... LAST CRUISE OF THE CLASS OF SUMMER '3o On September 11, 1919, we, the class of Summer '30, embarked on the first leg of the last lap of our voyage in the good ship of training, P0fj!f6Cl77lfC, in our search for our goal, the port of Knowledge. Captain Fred Rodriguez undertook the task of directing and aiding the mates and members of the crew in their respective duties and lines of work. First Mate Dorothy Risk assisted the captain and the crew to perform their tasks, while the Keeper of the Log, Othella Brown, recorded all the business of the company. The Pursers, Ada Maye Tucker and William Kidder, were intrusted with the funds of the passengers, and the Athletic Directors, Clara Poolman and Lloyd Burton, were responsible for various sport contests held aboard ship. Then, too, we had with us two experienced seamen, Miss Atkinson and Mr. Neuswanger, who took our bearings, laid our course, and guided us through strange and dangerous waters. Many evenings, otherwise dull, were transformed into memorable occasions by the ingenious planning of our social overseers. On two evenings roller skating proved a fascinating diversion, although the weather was rather rough and upsetting. The realm of the theater claimed the attention of the passengers on three other occasions. Friendly contests with various famous athletes proved the prowess of our sport endeavors. In the harbor of Port Half-Way, we anchored along side of the craft, Senior Aye, which was to be our ship during the second leg of our journey. Finding the Senior Aye's passengers preparing to disembark within the week, our social overseers planned and executed a grand ball in their honor as our last tribute to them. A few days later as we watched from our deck each individual craft of the departing seniors disappear over the horizon bound for ports unknown, the Swish of the pro- pellor brought to us the realization that we were off on the last leg of our voyage. For this lap, our captain, Edward Berger, ably commanded the mates and officers. First Mate to him was petite Virginia Wilcox, whose curly head so full of clever ideas helped the crew through many difficulties. A reliable Keeper of the Log, Helen Maky, kept all records and accounts of business and pleasure in the ship's log, while Roma Rae Smelser and William Kidder acted in the capacity of Pursers, caring for the financial end of our business. Athletic Directors Eileen Campbell and Arthur Mollner, organized various squads which performed admirably. Miss Atkinson and Mr. Neuswanger remained our faithful, experienced seamen. As before, delightful social events were planned by passengers selected for that purpose, and again skating, theater parties, and teas furnished diversion. After nineteen weeks at sea, we arrived at the port which was that of Commence- ment. There to greet us we found the ship and crew of the Senior Bees, though how they arrived was a mystery to us. However, they entertained us graciously and gorgeously at a beautiful ball which was destined to live forever in our minds and hearts. For now, our voyage on the Pobtecbnic being at an end, we each prepared to set out individually in our little crafts bound for all points on the way to the port of Knowledge. .5517 3134. Polytechnic High School Los Angeles, California Dear Helen: This is the very last,letter I shall write to you before I graduate, so I am going to sum up for you the high points in my Senior Aye term at Poly. It has been a glorious twenty weeks, and now it is almost over! Tomorrow night ends it, for then I shall walk across the stage to receive my diploma. I wonder if you felt, when you were grad- uated last year, as I do now, inspired with the desire to Learn to live, and live to learn. This is our motto, you know. It received an overwhelming majority vote, and so I am sure it must be expressive of our spirit. It suggests everything that lies in the great world ahead of each one of us. It represents the ideal toward which we must work, in school and out. I must not forget the Senior sweaters. We are the first class to have had these em- blems of dignity by the end of the first five weeks of the term. Wasn't that quick work? Our colors are lovely, green and white. Perhaps you can imagine how eifective these are when fashioned into a white body with crew neck, trimmed with three thin, green stripes at waist, wrist, and neck. These sweaters have been our pride and joy ever since we received them. Everyone, teachers and students alike, have congratu- lated us on our clever idea, and we are happy to have made such praise possible. What a troup of athletes we have enrolled in S'3o! We triumphed happily over our rivals, the Bees, in the first event, the tug-of-war, and in a girls' hockey tournament. However, we met surprising strength from them in the boys' and the girls' basketball events. Of course, the tables have to turn occasionally. The class play, Friend Hannah, was really an accomplished production for a per- formance of its type. It is a very pretty romance which delighted all who heard it. Miss Lewis, dramatic adviser and critic, supervised the production, and that alone insured its success. The class talent, too, was cleverly displayed. We are proud of all our artists. Ephebians were chosen soon after the Commencement essayists were announced. More boys than girls appeared on the original list. Five boys and three girls were finally selected by the faculty to represent the Class of S'3o in the Ephebian Society, one of the greatest honors one can hope to achieve in high school. Throughout this last term we have had the most delightful get-togethers and social affairs in which everyone has joined with lively zest and goodwill. We had several theater parties in Los Angeles and in Hollywood, two skating events at the Roller- drome, and ever so many snappy dances and teas in our own gym after school. During all these good times and hard work we have been led and directed by worthy officers, and advised by Miss Atkinson and Mr. Neuswanger. Is it any wonder that I am partly sorry that in a few hours I shall receive my little piece of sheepskin and depart from Poly forever as one of her students? My one conso- lation is that at least I shall be able and proud to say that I am an alumna of Poly, which is next best to being a student within her shelter. Affectionately yours, HARRIETTE DERN. -e5l741g4- EDWARD BERGER, Prefident .9'3o HELEN MAKY, Xecretargy .S 3a VIRGINIA WIIJCOX, Vice-president .S 3o WILLIAM KIDDER, Tfefzrurer S 30 S'3o ASSISTANT CLASS OFFICERS Roma Rae Smelser ....

A Ill' I ...Z -fill 05134-- Flames of Memory After a hard, tiresome day I was completely exhausted. Now, sitting in front of the open fire, the pleasant warmth lulled my tired nerves into a state of perfect relaxation. Suddenly I looked at the grate more closely. The coals were shifting. A picture formed in the flames, and drowsily curious, I waited to see what it was going to be. Gradually it grew plain, as though it were being focused for my sight by some unseen hand. Then it became quite clear- too clear for my future sense of contentment something inside of me whispered. I saw a young boy, yet soft of face and earnest in bearing, approach a massive, dignified building. I started a little as I saw that building. How recently, and yet how long ago, had I been one of those whom it had sheltered, one of those who had stoutly defended it against all rivals! Now the boy entered the building and I was able to observe him more closely. It was with a pang of regret thatlnoticed those straight young legs, those square shoulders, and I marveled to see what a change fifty years make in a person. Once inside I saw the boy greeted by a gentleman in whose eyes a kindly twinkle promised sure succor to those who might have the least need of help. Then and there began the true and wonderful friendship that kept the boy loyal to ideals he was to be proud of in manhood. Others met him, hurriedly perhaps, for he was only one of a vast crowd. He was grateful to the few who called him by his right name or knew him next time. I followed him from day to day and chuckled as I guessed the meaning of the puzzled expression which I soon noticed on his face-a momentous question, the eternal problem of whether Miss So-and-So was easier than Mrs. This-and-That, or whether Mr. Big gave more tests than Mr. Small! But he learned in time that teachers are pretty much the same, they all have the interest of students at heart, even though the ways of expressing it are varied and mysterious. Next came the social side of his high school career. I saw him in the midst of gaiety, all amedley ofjoyous living that made the days pass too swiftly. I followed the boy as he found friends, good and true. Boisterous Fred, dependable Lawrence, exuberant Tad, they came and went in the flames. My eyes grew dim as I saw those familiar faces, most of them have been gone for years now. As his days at school went rushing by, I noticed that the boy would soon be a boy no longer. He grew more serious as he grew older, one of the infallible signs of approaching manhood. As I watched, I could see that the years he spent in Poly opened up his mind to what was expected of him later on in life, Victory with Honor. Overwhelmingly important, that motto! His Senior year: first a challenging Bee, then a lordly Senior Aye, days of excite- ment, days of speed, days of fun, days leading to the end, to Graduation! Swiftly they passed, swifter yet!Tug-0'-war, baseball, football, track, dances, banquets, all in a flash. Then the Day, the Day that signified the culmination of three years of f-fil106!?r r . A , effort, of cooperation, of happiness. I saw him receiving his diploma from the man who had welcomed him to the school, his school, the school he was now leaving. I remembered how he felt that day. There was mist in his eyes and a catch in his throat that he could not get rid of. Now he is marching off the stage. Literal-minded persons might see only another student who had graduated from high school, just another careless boy who had completed thirteen years of work in public schools. But I knew better than that. I knew that boy was thinking he had lost all his friends. His class was disbanded, his teachers busy with new students who stepped into his place, his school already look- ing forward to the next class it would graduate. Later, I saw what a mistake the boy made. True, his class was scattered, never to live again in its entirety, but it lived in his memory. His teachers were busy with other students, but never too busy to see him when he came back. His schoolwwell, he knew that it had reshaped him, set him on the road to success, established his character on that invincible foundation, Victory with Honor. Now the fire is dying down. Only a few embers gleam dully from the blackness of the grate. I realize that it must be late, but what care I? I have just been where every man would like to be, but few find time for. Through the flames of memory I have paid an overdue visit to My School. -IRA SWETT, W,3I MY SILVER CANOE A gleaming moonlit path lies on the waters of the bay, My sleep canoe is floating now through portals of the day. It glides with mystic movement, swift, to where the evening star Blazes forth in glory, leaving daytime cares afar. My dream canoe is silver, shaped in mold of my desires And bound with threads of hope. I pass from western sunset fires To high adventure in my boat-each night the ways are new, I travel over seas of wishes to shores where dreams come true. There life is wrapped in mantle woven from the lights of dawn And strands of fairy colors from the curved rainbow drawn, I know not time nor trouble 'til the fall of morning dew In that land enchanted of my drifting silver sleep canoe. -VIRGINIA FENN, S'3o. --s5l107l?+' Night A moonlit summer nightf A night when all the stars in the heavens nhove us Twinkle and sparkle like little jewels on Il velvet rohe.

'ELIZABIITIl Gmiss, S'1,o -'eQl1O8lSe4-- Hikers' Luck Sh! He went behind that mound. Yes, and see-he is already burying himself. If we catch him, we'll have some- thing to boast of. A most illusive animal, this species of the kangaroo family, began the Professor. They live chiefly in Australia, although there are a limited number of them here in New Zealand. During the winter they sleep under the snow for two days at a time. Then they forage abroad returning with sufficient food for the period of hibernation. For the good of the shire, shouted Pat, don't hold us up with that leather- lunged description of a mere wallaby. l.et's chase it! Very well, said the Professor goodnaturedly. After him we will go, we will go, willg. . . A full pound of snow came hurtling through the air in spherical form and silenced a further outbreak. The party of hikers got into line and again began to conquer the 14,000 feet of mountain leading to the summit of Mt. Ruapehu, in southern New Zealand. We had started frcm the chateau, 7,eco feet up on the mountain side, at half past ten that morning. It was after one and for two hours we had followed the wallaby. It was a tantalizing business. Seven bounds of perhaps fifteen feet each and then a deep burrowing. When he detected us near, he would kick his way out back- ward, sending up a shaft of snow. Encumbered by our snowshoes, we made slow progress along the trail of the wallaby. Great drifts, approximately twenty feet deep, loomed on all sides. From one of these suddenly a mass of powdery ice shot up five feet almost into my face. The wallaby, smelling us, evidently had resumed digging in. Soon, however, he found it was no use. He had struck a stream of water. A queer stream it was too, running on solid ice about four feet under the snow in a tunnel made by its own force. He quickly changed his tactics. A flurry of white flakes, a streak of tan, and he was gone. Only a faint Mee-eh-eh-ee faded into the distance. There goes the last of him, said the Professor regretfully. I should have so liked a specimen to take home. We dragged ourselves on and up toward the summit. The country below appeared and disappeared as the clouds shifted. If animals see this beauty all the time, I shouldn't mind being a wallaby, said the Professor. Mee-eh-eh-ee, came from somewhere not far distant. Look at that frozen river and grand forest of trees, and that . . . An icy sphere struck the Professor and effectually silenced him. ' 'Mee-eh-eh-eee, eh-eh-ee. Keep quiet, Prof. Listen to that! There she be again! exclaimed Pat. Eh-ee-ee. The cry ascended to a piercing wail which rose and fell at short inter- vals on the wintry air. It was Pat who receives credit for the discovery. OW, do come and look all of ye! No, I'm right over here, he suddenly called. 1 0913... We hurried over to where Pat beckoned, and there, in a trap, was the handsome black and tan wallaby which had eluded us all this time. He was slightly larger than an English bull dog, a perfect miniature kangaroo. A wonderful specimen! exclaimed the Professor. A week later, bound for the Fiji Island, the Professor came to me. What a good story to tell+that of the wallaby, he said. Oh, just hikers' luck, I replied. fEUGENE GOODWIN, S'37. IN THE SNOW More snow came, and drift followed drift until Rolf Manly's little mountain cabin was all but hidden from view. Being sick and alone at that time of year was a very dangerous situation. However, Stanley, his pal, would return very soon with the supplies, and then he would be safe, safe from that fire-like fever that was consuming all his resistance. He would be safe from the blizzard that sent the wind howling and wailing through the strings of the pines, well-rosined and tuned by nature. Like an artist, they played strange, weird strains that roused the imagination and made one shudder. A man carrying a pack on his back toiled slowly up the trail. His head was bowed low to escape the cutting blast of the wind. He slipped on an icy spot and fell, twisting his ankle as he went down. Upon regaining his feet, he found that he could not walk without considerable pain. He limped on through the snow for some distance and then fell on his face, exhausted. No use trying to manage snowshoes novv. There was only one thing to do and that was to go on as best he could-if he could go at all. He tried to rise, but the weight of the pack and the pain in his leg sent him head- long into the snow a second time. He crawled. At first he prayed as he crawled and tried to choose his road. Then he made a rosary of the curves in the trail, praying from corner to corner on flat, wind-swept places, beating his way, neck and shoulders, through blinding drifts. One leg was numb, the other flowed with fire. There was an icy weight across his shoulders. His fingers bled, his eyes streamed. The world was a vast, frozen doom, and in the midst of it he, a tiny, ridiculous bit ofsuffering, struggled, the only living thing in all creation. He forgot to watch the trail, dim in the twi- light. He forgot his sick and starving pal. He forgot his burning leg. He crawled. He saw a bare white space. It would be colder out there, yet he turned into it. Why? He had not reason, he was beyond thought. There was a red sky, the only Warm thing in a cold world, and against it a gray mound. He was crawling toward the mound-the gray mound with snow on it. A cabin. A little cabin in this emptiness. He remembered his pal and home! There was fire, warmth, and huddled quiet. He remembered the pain. He sobbed and crawled. A little farther-a little farther! Inch after inch. Miles. Miles. Centuries. He was at the door, trembling and sobbing. He pulled himself upward toward the latch. As he fell into the cabin, he heard his pal cry, Cheerio, old boy! I knew you'd make it. -LEE BLAIR, S'1,o --eQl11Ol3e-- The Rainbow King Nothing more appropriate was everin- vented in glorious March weather than fishing for rainbows on the brink ofa clear mountain stream. The angler then comes closest to Paradise, and realizes the ful- fillment of all his dreams. In a stream which flows through Prairie Fork Canyon into the San Gabriel River, I spend many a carefree day. Here the rainbow trout make their headquarters. They seem to have absorbed the strength of the rushing stream, and the stamina of the water-worn rocks in the rapids. In good fishing weather they disport them- selves, their gaily colored backs glistening as they leap clear of the water or rise lazily to get some choice beetle too full of the beauty of the season to be cautious. Z jfs On a well remembered day I nearly captured him! I had hiked many a weary mile, upheld by the thought of the battle to come. The air was pungent with the fragrance of the pines and spruces. The warm breeze wafted all the sweetness of the mountains to me. The cloudless, deep blue sky wished me good luck. I stopped at the foot of a series of rapids where the water was swift, deep, and full of ripples. I knew a giant trout, victor of many a fight with me, was waiting. I tested my equipment before going to the fray, and then I approached upstream, noiselessly, cautiously. As it was a bright day, I chose a dark fly, a Royal Coachman. I drew a little line from my reel and whipped the fly with a perfect cast towards the base of a large, waterstained rock. The Coachman, a thing of beauty, riding high on the ripples with wings perfectly balanced, floated to the rough water below the rock. A dark shape swirled up from the depths, disdained my offering, and departed like a a shadow. I tried another fly and still another until all my lures were used. The object of my effort would have none of them. Suddenly I remembered a wet fly that was left in my hatband from last season. It was not in the best of condition, but it had a small silver spinner mounted on the shank, which I had not yet tried. A moment sufliced to knot it on the end of my leader and start it upstream, the spinner whirling merrily. Again the fish of my dreams appeared, and bit the fly so savagely that he nearly tore the rod from my hands. To say that I was elated would be putting it mildly. For twenty minutes I played him. I met every move with a counter move. I foiled a dash downstream by 'Weill 1 llgea' Q giving him the butt. Slowly he began to tire. As he drew stubbornly towards me, I had a chance to admire his splendid size and proportions. Could I kill this Monarch of the mountain waters? Dare I take that advantage of such a magnificent adversary? He had put up a goodgfight. I was tempted to freemhim. My problem solved itself. In a flurry of spray he began to struggle again. A snap, a whip of the rodfthe Rainbow King was gone. The year-old fly had not proved strong enough for the fury of the fighting czar of the streams. That night I had only the old, old story to tell of the escape of the biggest fish. A sardonic laugh greeted my narrative. I did not merit the scorn of my companions, I may have imagined a little of the size of that trout, but the laugh hurt my fisher- man's pride more than I can tell. I knew that I had had the fight of my life. To my dying day I shall remember that battle of the upland waters, for I had met my equal, and although defeated, I was satisfied. May no unworthy angler ever capture him! Long live the Rainbow King! -GERARD WYss, W'31 HIS HOLY GRACE Our destiny is shapedg to say is not for man. We blindly aim, and strive for what is naught, Turned back abruptly, our very soul distraught. A secret power seems to stay our every plan, Slows our progress though we hotly say, I can , Dashes our dreams and makes us know the common lot, Feel anguish for vain things that have been wrought. Must we with listless eyes the future scan? As after darkness breaks the warm sunshine, So out of sorrow comes a fervent prayer. With solaced heart we turn to the divine, Learning, as faith takes us unaware, Sorrows are stepping-stones in Life's design, Leading us at last to His endearing care. JEAN BATH, S'3o. 'sill 1215+- The Mansion House From the distance came the long, eerie wail of an engine, whistling for I some remote crossing, then silence broken only by the occasional howl of a restless hound. ln the center rf a small clearing, encircled by tall, dark trees, stood the Mansion l-louse, its paneless windows staring evilly upon dismal surround- ings, The bleak, weather-l'eaten sides showed a ghastly pallor in the pale moonlight. Not a breeze stirred the oppressive air. Suddenly a shadow flirted across the gralv back-ground, then another. The ominous silence was broken by a dull rattle of chains as a weak, yellow light gleamed for a few moments from a cellar window, followed by darkness and mere silence. The indistinct form of a man appeared bearing a bulky object with dilliculty. I-le entered the gloom of a tall elm tree, and threw a rope over the lower branch. After a few deathlike moments, the man returned to the house, leaving an object dangling from the rr-ee. The atmosphere became charged with a sinister significance because of that gruesome body swinging from the tree. Gradually penetrating the silence came the choked cough of an automobile engine, and a dilapidated flivver appeared in the moonlight. lt drove directly to the tree and paused under the fateful branch. The driver stood up, severed the rope, and the object fell with a helpless thud to the floor of the car. A man left the house. Hello, Spud. Hello, Chuck. How did things go? O.K., but it sure was a job. The old boy weighed a ton. lf it hadn't been hanging from the tree you'd have had some lift. That's all right. lt was worth it. Wait'll tomorrow. Ya, well, we'd better beat it. l'll see you mananaf' All right. Adios! The car melted into the Stygian darkness of the trees and the man returned to the s-QIIISIE-e house. A dog howled dolefully, and heavy silence once more settled over the Mansion House. From the Mohawk Daib News, October 1.4, 1919 Intense rivalry between the Mohawk High and the Mohawk Polytechnic prior to the much-touted annual pigskin game resulted in a midnight visit to the Mohawk High coupled with the loss of the prized football effigy of victory. The school is in an uproar. Players and student body claim that the game is lost unless the Trophy is recovered. This has been in the possession of the Mohawk High School for the past ten years and is exhibited only before the annual Polytechnic and Mohawk game to rouse spirit in the student body. A Harbor in North Africa THE AENEID, Booic I, LINES 159 to 169 Far within the bay's retreat An islet makes a peaceful por , And waves against its rocky shore Break and ripple away in sport. Guarding the bay are vast, steep cliffs, And twin peaks tower to the skiesg While at their feet the level sea Serenely safe, and silent lies. The shimmering woods form a scene above, A grove intense with darkest shade. There by the overhanging crags A cavern cool and still is made. Then Nature fashioned seats of stone Within the cavern's rocky dome, While moss and sea plants formed a place Where Nymphs might well have made their home. No chains are needed here to hold The weary ships near welcome landg The anchor with its curved fang Need not bind them to the sand. Translated by RAPHAEL CLEMENTE, W'37. V--:ill 1413+ A Forest Scene The last rays of amber sunlight dis- 1 appeared over the rim of a gigantic basin which lies hidden in the heart of a redwood forest reserve cf the Santa Cruz Mountains. Lingering beams of light broke through an occasional opening in the mass of branches from the thickly distributed trees, and pro- jected diagonally across the basin. The rugged giants towered hundreds of feet into a space beyond my vision. Their weather-beaten bark, rough and knotty, revealed an age of the Roman Conquests or, perhaps, that of Alex- ander the Great, centuries past. The branches grew near the top of the trees, the lower part of the massive trunks possessed few if any. Every- thing near by, the symmetrical ferns, the pines, the oaks, and the manzan- ita, was dwarfed by those majestic redwood sentinels. Oli the edge of the trail on which l was standing, the ground, blanketed with leaves, sloped into a thicket, beyond which I could not see, but through the dense foliage came the rhytlimical sound ofrunning water. Save for this the forest, as though by magic, sub- sided to a serene quietude. Suddenly two deer stepped daintily across the trail above and vanished into the undcrbrush, apparently in the dirccticn of the mountain stream. Without the slightest warning, a blue jay pierced the tranquil air with a boisterous scream. A chipmunk scampered down the sequoia directly in front and retreated into the shelter of the toppice. Then silence until softly the great trees began to chant their primeval mclcdy as the cool evening breeze stirred them from the reverie of the passing day. Dowisu. CALLIS, W'3o.

'MARY LENE SHIPPEY, S30 -fSll15lS+' Momus and the Panther The fierce, unrelenting summer sun beat upon the little brown house on the corner. On the porch sat an old man in a rocking chair, and a little boy lay on the floor, looking at Scottish Chiefs, and rubbing small, bare feet together. Dock's grandpa was reading aloud out of a slightly frayed newspaper. Yesterday at two o'clock Demon, the star panther of the Selig Zoo, escaped from his cage and is still at large. Officers have been detailed to track the animal, which has a specially vicious temper. Parents are cautioned to warn children. Dock's grandpa peered over his horn-rimmed spectacles, precariously perched on the point of his rubicund nose. Dock's eyes grew a bit large while he listened. Then he demanded a second reading as he climbed onto the old man's knee, nearly pre- cipitating him from the uncomfortable rocking chair in the cool shade of the front porch. You young yarmint! Get out of here! said grandpa, putting his corncob pipe into his smoking jacket pocket and placing his thick tortoise-shell glasses on a small table nearby. He glared fiercely at the little boy. Aw gee! pouted Dock, slamming the front screen door. His grandpa closed his old eyes and, brushing a fly from his shiny forehead, began to doze. Soon he was asleep. The front door re-opened slightly. A tousled blonde head appeared. Dock smiled mischieviously, then crept up to the little wicker table and took the reading glasses, trembling as his white-haired grandpa turned slightly in the rocking chair. He snored. Dock breathed freely again and crept back through the front door, slipping the glasses into his shirt pocket. Sniffing, he entered the kitchen and climbed up on a big chair after cautiously looking around the door.Just as he had nearly touched the doughnut container in the narrow cupboard, his mother caught him in the act, but he jumped down and burst out of the backyard door, safe beyond warnings. Disconsolately Dock sat on top of the back fence, elbows on knees, pouring lips in cupped hands, staring hard at nothing. Absently he took the glasses from his blouse pocket and perched them on his nose. Aw gee! Guess I'll run away and be a pancake-flapper in a glass window in New York'r something. A fellow's folks don't understand him now-a-days at all. It's always 'Don't do thisl' or 'Don't do thatl' Maybe if I went to Africa and come back with billions and trillions of diamonds, they'd be sorry. IfI got run over, bet they'd cry for their poor boy they tormented so. I couldn't be a pirate these days, but you betcha I could be a truck driver or something exciting!-what's that? Dock looked around, his hands on the fence, and peered over into the alley. His eyes were fixed on a terrifying object. He felt the short hair rise on the nape of his neck, for down the alley, slinking toward him, came a huge, slender creature, its yellow orbs shining menacingly. Gee whitakers, the panther! Dock's eyes nearly popped from his peach-blow face. Suddenly, the oblique eyes Us-ill 1613s,- of the animal seemed to catch him in a fixed, unwavering stare. It loped up the alley towards him. The little boy tried to call, to ery for help, but his throat was dry, his heart was in his mouth. His fingers only gripped the fence tighter, knuckles white. With a bound the panther sprang! Up, up it leaped and landed clawing on the side of the fence beside Dock, shaking the boards slightly for such a great bulk. The magnifying reading glasses dropped from Dock's stubby nose and fell into the muddy place in his back-yard. General Jackson! he cried in great amazement and relief. Then, giving vent to anger, he pushed his black house-cat into the mud on the other side. It meowed protestingly and slunk away under the back cellar. Wearily the weekly rag-man, carrying a bundle of papers out of the adjacent yard up the alley, passed the front porch where Dock's grandpa was lighting his pipe. A tattered newspaper on the pavement caught the junl-:er's bleary eye. He shifted the weight of his bundle and picked it up. Two years old! he muttered to himself, mechanically stuffing it in among the rest. He shuffled on to where his horse dozed near the curbstone.

Besides his executive duties, he coaches the junior and Senior Gym clubs. Voyle Brennen, varsity football mentor, has coached football for ten years at Polytechnic, making a name for himself, inasmuch as he guided three of Poly's teams to the championship of the city and one team tied for that position. His 192.6 Golden Tornado's record will be a mark at which the city schools will have to shoot for a long time to come. Eddie Leahy, the Mechanics' smiling track coach, is also a coach much-feared by the track teams in Southern California, due to the fine teams that he has made. He has never finished a team in less than third place in any City Meet. He has turned out many of the Southland's best track stars. At the present time Bill McGeagh is the iron man of S. C.'s track team. Clarence Mahoney, the Blue and Gold's baseball wizard, came to Polytechnic in 1919. He has fostered many line teams. Last year's nine placed second in the city. He also guides the destinies of the lightweight basketball teams. Ralph Jesson handles the varsity basketball squad. Last year was his first term at this sport. He formerly supervised lightweight football. He also has charge of the class B and C cinder squads. John Bell, assistant coach, came to the school in 1916. He assists the others of the gym staff in their duties. He coaches the second baseball and class B football teams, proving to be a valuable asset to the school's coaching staff. '+5ll46l9 J BLUE AND GOLD YELL LEADERS Poly's Jubilee year rooting sections were led by a snappy group of vociferators. During the first half of the term, Vernon Greenlaw held the position of head yell leader. His two assistants were Bob Stevens and George Candee. Vernon was the collegiate type. He harmonized his actions with the cheers that he led. He introduced a pause before the applause into his yells. This is another feature of college cheers. Bob Stevens and George Candee were able to cooperate with their leader to a fine degree of efhciency. These assistants also contributed a number of novel ideas to further the interest in inter-school activities. After losing the first two games of the year, the football team and the Student Body were disheartcned. But the yell leaders were not so affected, and soon, by wonderful rallies and peppy cheering, they put some fight into both of these organi- zations. Poly's Golden Tornado went into the L. A. game doped to lose by a large margin. But interest and spirit were at fever height at the Mechanic school. At the end of the hrst half, the Romans were ahead 7 to o. The Poly band came on the field during the intermission to encourage the Mechanics to do better things. They re- leased a cardboard parrot that had large, multi-colored balloons attached to it to keep it in the air. Many card stunts were featured by the Poly rooting section, one of them being the spectacle of a hand with a hammer hitting an L.A., until it crum- bled. This is exactly what happened in the second half of the game, the Mechanic eleven uncorked a powerful offense that walked right over the Romans. As the final whistle blew, the score was tied, 7 to 7. Bob Stevens was elected head yell leader for the Jubilee semester. His able assistants were Maurice Rimmerman and Charles Fife. With the early training that he received from Vernon Greenlaw, Bob soon had the same old enthusiasm in his rallies and aud calls that had been so successful the semester before. The first authorized track competition was the City Relays at L. A. The Poly rooting section gave a good account of themselves. In all of the'aud calls, meets, and games-this group of yell leaders established a splendid record. 1 ' P.

That is a fitting description of the 192.9 Varsity. They did not place very high in the league standings, only fourth, but this does not give you a fair idea of how they fought. The team gave every school in the race a hard battle. The squad was not a strong one. In the most important contest of the season, the L. A. tilt, Poly played a wonderful game and tied the highly touted Romans, 7 to 7. This was the biggest upset of the season. L. A. was favored over Poly by four touch- downs. The Romans were outfought, outplayed, and outthought by the Mechanic squad. This game marks the fourth straight year that L. A. has been unable to defeat the Blue and Gold. At the beginning of the year Poly's team was of unknown strength. After the Manual-Poly game it was shown that Poly had the weakest line in five years. Places were left vacant by Kleffel, a tackle of four years' experience and an All-City man all four years, Coats, a two-star center, and Brosnan, end. These positions were hard to fill. Coach Voyle Brennen had nine lettermen to mold a team from, but all were prac- tically inexperienced. Ed. Hill, two-year guard, and Bob Knappman, guard, were the only experienced players on the line. In the backfield Coach Brennen was better sup- plied, With Captain McBride, Chile Gomez, and Swede Dalton, all triple-threat men. Poly won only two games, tied one, and lost three. The men who received letters this year were: Captain Winston McBride, fullback, three stars, Hill and Knappman, guards, two stars, Tanner, half, two stars, Dalton, half, two stars, Lott, end, two stars, Chile Gomez, quarter, two stars, Kudlac, end, one star, Ryan, tackle, one star, Srawisky, guard, one star, Lineres, guard, one year, Ralphs, half, one year, Bock, end, one year, Weber, half, one year, Deadmon, half, one year, Little, center, one year, Zemke, center, one year, Erwin, end, one year, and Bill Dakin received a manager's letter. Seven of these lettermen will return next term to bolster up Coach Voyle Brennen's hopes. They are Lott, Kudlac, Ryan, Srawisky, Lineres, and Ralphs. Joe Gibson, who earned his letter on the championship '18 aggregation, will also return to strengthen the team. Besides this group there are many valuable men returning. These have been developed on Coach Eddie Leahy's second squad. They are Cook, Kammer- ling, Shafer, Folomer, Lacarra, Stutz, Darrach, Joe and Jim Hamby, Tillie Henderson, and Kemp. Two Poly men were placed on the mythical All-City team by a composite selection of the city high school coaches. They were Chile Gomez, quarter, and Bob Knapp- man, guard. Both these boys were the mainstays of the Parrot varsity. L. A. won the City Championship but they were unable to boast of a win over Poly. Next year the prospects of the Mechanics are much brighter, and we should be able to boast of another banner year, Poly'sJubilee term. +5fl491?+ L A ,Q U ,N,?.,. iii ?WinHT5E: 5NCBRzDi g X - F, Q Cozxcu Vomi Effimwiw Mm2ieffe wM DmeiiJ , , 5 ,QQ Y .www ,, .19 'gf I - - y f . , ... . ,,, V v, :H V , L 1g,f. ,1,.,m,2f', ,. :f,s1'fUw.5:s Wa- 2.5 'L '.

L If +!l1521g+ POLY vs. MANUAL Poly opened the 197.9 gridiron season against the-strong Manual Arts squad. The game was figured to be of championship caliber, but after the final whistle had blown, the score board read 7.6 to 6 and Poly had practically been eliminated from the cham- pionship race. Poly's team played a good heady game but the Toilet eleven was a much stronger aggregation. Shortly after the first quarter had started, Chuck Gabriels, Manual's stellar full- back, cracked the center of Poly's line and galloped 45 yards to a touchdown. Early in the second quarter Cashill flipped a pass to Howard, Manual quarter, from place- kick formation, netting another score for the Toilets. Chili Gomez, Poly's triple-threat quarter, proved his Worth in the third quarter when he raced 85 yards for a touchdown for the most spectacular piece of broken field running seen in a prep game. Judy Weber backed up the line for Poly most successfully. When the nightmare had ended, with all too much of such personalities as Gabriels, Howard, and Rhein, the Poly rooters were only too glad to leave the bleachers. The statistics show that Manual had the upper hand throughout. They made eleven first downs to Poly's eight and gained 343 yards to Poly's 7.7.3. The stars of the day were Gabriels, Howard, Rhein, and a charging line for Manual, while Chili Gomez was the shining light for Poly. POLY vs. HOLLYWOOD The Poly Mechanics had a bad case of fumbleitis when they met the Hollywood Stars in the second league game, and the Shieks won 7 to o. The Poly machine was one that would have been a pleasure to watch if it had not been for the fumbles. Twice the men were within the ro yard marker when they fumbled the ball. The teams battled scoreless for the first two quarters, but early in the third quarter Poly stopped a Hollywood drive on the ten yard line. On the first play Chili Gomez was tackled so hard that the ball was knocked from his arms, Wayne Gannon, Hollywood fullback, recovering it on the 17. yard line for Hollywood. The Poly forward wall held for two downs, netting the stars but two yards. On the third play a pass, Hillman to Reams, gave the Movielads a first down on Poly's two yard line. Again the Mechanic forward wall held for two downs, but on the third play Gannon hit right tackle and tallied for the Stars. Gannon then carried the ball over for the extra point. The rest of the game was a battle with the Stars defending their lead and Poly trying to score. Wayne Gannon was in the limelight for the Hollywood team while Captain McBride played his best offensive game of the year doing most of the ball-carrying. As a whole, the Poly line from end to end played a fine game with George Bock, end, by far the outstanding player on the defense. +3I1531i+ POLY vs. JEFF A fighting Golden Tornado tasted victory for the first time in the 1919 League race when the squad defeated the Jefferson Democrats zo to o in the third game of the year. The tilt was hard fought from beginning to end. The Poly forward wall functioned perfectly from end to end. In the backfield Gomez was easily the most spectacular ball packer on either team, McBride, Tanner, Weber, and Ralphs also playing bang-up games. On the line Bock, Knappman, Little, and Ryan were the outstanding men. Jefferson had one star in Oliver, who was a triple-threat man throughout the game. Late in the second quarter of the game, after the ball had been carried from the center of the field to the IO yard line, Ralphs made five yards on a wide end run. Then Gomez on a reverse carried the ball over the last chalk line for six points. Chili converted with a place kick. Again in the fourth quarter the Golden Tornado worked the ball down the field and McBride carried it over the chalk line for a touchdown. Chili converted with a place kick. The third score came when West, ofjefferson, fumbled and Poly recovered. On the first play Chili flipped a pass to Bock for another touchdown and Tanner failed to convert. 7 POLY vs. L. A. Poly's Mechanics pulled the biggest upset of the 197.9 season when they tied L. A., the league champions, 7 to 7 in the fourth game of the year. The Romans were favored to beat Poly by at least four touchdowns before the game, but Poly, the under dog, with ioo per cent support from the student body, played the Romans off their feet. The battle attracted the largest crowd of the season. with 11,500 alumni and students in the stands. The first quarter was the only one in which the highly touted Romans held the upper hand. Twice the Poly forward wall, which played a phenomenal game, held when the Romans threatened. After holding the Pioneers the second time, Chili Gomez dropped back to punt. The punt was blocked by Crawford who picked up the oval and galloped to a score. Cheshire converted. Poly then came back fighting and tore the Roman forward wall to shreds. In the second quarter the Golden Team carried the ball to within the shadow of the goal posts where a superhuman defense, put up by the Romans, staved off the score. But the Poly team was not to be denied. Jerry Tanner took the ball on the kick-off straight through the Roman team for 75 yards before he was stopped with a beautiful flying tackle by Almada, L. A.'s speedy back, on the IO yard line. L. A. then held for two straight downs, when Ralphs, Parrot back, took the ball around left end to the one yard line. Then Chili Gomez scored on a line buck. Gomez converted to tie the score. From then on to the final whistle Poly Mechanics were threats, carrying the pig- skin within L. A.'s zo yard line three times. Another Poly-L. A. Classic has gone down into history, and the L. A. Romans have not beaten Poly in four years. --tfl154l?+ POLY vs. LINCOLN Poly's Golden Tornado seemed to gain more power with every start so that in the fifth game they were able to defeat the Railsplitters on the gridiron at Wrigley Field, I3 to 7. The game was a hectic one from the beginning to the end with Poly holding a slight edge. Twice Poly was unsuccessful in bucking the Lincoln forward wall in the first quarter when the Lincolnites put up a phenomenal defense in the shadows of their goal posts. The first score came during the middle of the second quarter when a pass, Gomez to Lott, over the end zone gave Poly six points. The place-kick of Gomez Went wide of the goal posts. During the third quarter the teams were again in a deadlock, but in the fourth Poly came into the fray with renewed vigor. When Mesa fumbled Chili's kick, Poly recov- ered on the Lincoln eight yard line. ln the first play Ralphs carried the ball around left end for another score. Gomez converted for the extra point. Lincoln then showed some power and on the kickoff, Swedo, Lincoln back, suddenly dashed from behind a moving wall of players and tore up the field in the clear. The Poly safety man was then taken out on a beautiful piece of blocking and scored for the Railsplitters. Mesa converted. From then on the team was in midfield to the end ofthe game. Poly's Golden Tornado played the best defensive game of the year with Gomez and McBride the outstanding figures, while Swedo played a stellar game for Lincoln. POLY vs. FRANKLIN The Kitefliers from out Franklin way defeated the Golden Tornado I3 to o in the last game of the 191.9 League Race, marking the first time that a Printer team has downed a Gold and Blue Varsity. The Printers were endowed with a fighting spirit and their varied attacks completely outplayed the Mechanics, making twelve first downs to Poly's one. f Coach Brennen's team was demoralized by the loss of two stellar men, Chili Gomez and Bob Knappman. Both of these were later elected to all city berths, but were declared ineligible due to scholastic grades. The team, playing a futile losing game, was a credit to its Alma Mater in the fine way in which it tried to make up the weakness of the forward wall and spiritless backfield. Both of Franklin's scores came through Poly's guard which was filled by Hill, who ended his high school career of football in a blaze of glory, filling Knappman's place. The Franklin forwards tore the Poly line to shreds as they ripped through for long gains. Only the indomitable fighting Poly spirit kept the score as low as it was. This game was the last played for Poly by McBride, Deadmon, Erwin, Hill, Little, Zemcke, Weber, Tanner, Dalton, and Bock. They were all star players. Another historic League Race came to an end with Poly occupying fourth place. -fifljjlif Class B Football The 1919 lightweight squad under the tutelage of Coach Bell had a mediocre season. They were in fifth place in the final class B standings. Los Angeles High School, with its usual strong lightweight team, won the title. The Mechanics started the season with five lettermen returning from the previous year. A very good turnout of over one hundred athletes answered Coach Bell's call for material. The local team won one game, lost three, and tied two. The initial game of the season saw a weak Blue and Gold eleven facing the Manual Arts team. This fray resulted in a seven to seven tie. Seven days later a slightly stronger Hollywood team defeated the Parrots, I3 to 11.. This game was a thriller. The second Poly touchdown was made in the last few minutes of play. The attempt for conver- sion, which would have tied, was unsuccessful. The next game was with the Jefferson squad. A scoreless tie was the result of this tilt. A bye followed after which the Baby Tornado met the powerful Roman team. The Romans had been winning all their games by large scores. They defeated the Poly squad in a very lopsided affair, zo to o. By showing their superiority in every angle of the game, the Lincoln gridsters de- feated the locals, 18 to 6. The Lincoln team showed that they were the fastest aggre- gation in the league. The Parrots won the last game of the season by defeating the weak Franklin team, 12. to 6. Both the Parrots and the Kiteflyers were weak on the offensive, but the latter shaded Franl-:lin's squad on the defense. The chief difficulty of the lightweight squad was the lack of teamplay. They did not function as a unit. Beverly Allen captained the lightweights. The following boys received their I919 lightweight football letters: Moore, Hammond, Kalionzes, Wapner, Olson, Cota, Vignolo, Edgerton, Cameron, Grusman, Guyse, Post, Stein, and Fraser. Hector Santiestevan was awarded a manager's letter. Leonard Sway acted in the capacity of Assistant Manager. 41156139 Class C Football Poly's midget football team, coached by Norman Decker, tied for second place with the Franklin eleven in the final City League standings. The powerful Los Angeles High School squad won the City title. The only schools that entered teams in League! competitions were Poly, L. A., Franklin, and Manual Arts. ln the first encounter the Mechanics defeated Manual Arts, 7 to 6. The Poly team mauled their opponents so badly that in the last few minutes to play the Artisans were too weak to push the ball three yards for a winning touchdown. The fleaweights were the only Poly squad that defeated Manual. The boys came up against the strong Roman team in the next game and came out on the losing side of a 13 to o score. Outweighing the Poly squad by an average of IO pounds to the man, the Romans were able to make yard upon yard on straight line-drives. The last game was held on Dunn Field against the powerful Franklin squad. The two teams battled to a scoreless tie with the pig- skin on the fifty yard marker at the blowing of the final whistle. Edgar Friedman was acting captain of the fleaweight team. Only a small turnout of 35 players reported to Coach Decker at the beginning of the season. The other schools had turnouts of from 6o to 70 men. The majority of candidates for class C honors were tenth graders. Considering the small turnout and lack of seasoned ma- terial this was a very good season for the class C boys. Decker, who coached the squad, proved himself worthy. He was out every afternnon from four to six, critically watching scrimmages and figuring out new plays to outclass the opposition. The 1919 team was handicapped by the fact that they had only one capable sub- stitute. The following boys earned their letters: Frazee, Uyemura, Tannenbaum, Dvorak, Gallant, Say, Smith, Lee, Wheeler, Collich, Friedman, and Tassoupo is. Harrington earned a manager's letter. '-sill 5713+ Varsity Basketball The 192.9 Polytechnic Varsity Basketball squad, a reasonably strong team, was dealt a severe blow by Fate and dropped five games out of six played to teams of inferior and superior quality. Splendid individual work brought fame to Poly's team, but the collective efforts of these flashing stars netted only presentable scores. Captain Harold Hutchins, Happy Apperson, Marty Miller, Slim Dillenbeck, Walter Lyons, Harold Mallenger, and Si Peterson formed the Golden Tornado. Ap- person was selected by a majority of the coaches and newspapers for a position on the mythical All-City team. His basketball was featured by steady consistent basket work and brilliant guarding. Captain Hutchins' work on the hardwood was notable for its consistency and steadiness. The rest of the members of the squad played extremely well on most occasions and deserve credit for their spirit and performances. Coach Pop Jesson lead the Mechanics and inspired his players with a fight to the end spirit. With mediocre material to mold into a good basketball team, Coach Jesson did wonders. One returning letterman does not constitute a very fair nucleus to build a wonder team around. Two of the very best reasons offered for the poor showing of the Mechanic varsity was the lack of proper space for practice and the other, the team was not good enough. Poly played some splendid teams and was de- feated by reasonably small margins. All the other games between City League teams seemed to balance favorably. In the L.A. game the local lads exerted themselves, combined, and played basket- ball. At the last minute mark Poly lead by two points, then Nemer of L.A. leveled the score. During the last minute of the extra three-minute quarter, Laird ofL.A. closed his eyes, thought of his mother, kissed the ball, and let fly from his own foul line. Result, 35 to 33, and one ofthe closest games in years. -'sill 581341- POLY vs. HOLLYWOOD Poly's Mechanic basketball team opened the 1930 athletic season. They met the Hollywood Stars on January IO, losing, to a slightly stronger team, zo to 18, cn the wir1ner's court. The teams were evenly matched, the score was knotted up to the last quarter, when the Stars staged a rally and forged ahead. The Parrots' comeback fell short by eight points, as the final score indicated. Coach Jesson's boys fought until the final whistle but were unable to emerge from the fray victorious. The outstanding player on the floor was Marty Oudermeulen, Poly's guard, who played a bangup game on both defense and offense. He seemed to be wherever he was needed at the right time. Happy Apperson, Marty's running mate, was also outstanding on the floor. Captain Hutchins played a good steady game at forward for Poly. Markowitz, Hollywood threat, was in the limelight for the Paigemen. PoLY vs. JEFFERSON Poly's Mechanic five bowed down to the Jefferson Democrats in the second league game, 11 to 8, in the Poly gym. The game was featured by the fine defensive play of both squads. The defense put up by the teams was the finest ever seen on Poly's court. The tilt was a nip-and-tuck affair from the opening whistle to the final gun, with the score see-sawing back and forth. Most of the scores came as a result of long shots from the center of the floor. The outstanding player of the day was Happy Apperson, Poly guard. He played a game which was remarkable for a prep player. He seemed to be all over the floor at all times. More than once he broke up the jeff passing attack singlehanded. Apperson also took high point honors. POLY vs. FRANKLIN Coach Ralph Jesson's Poly varsity won its first league game on the Poly court, defeating the Franklin Kitefliers 7.4 to 11. This was the Mechanics' only wing they were defeated by all the other schools by a slim margin. The Mechanics played fine basketball throughout the contest. High point honors went to the Gold and Blue. Lyons and Oudermeulen did the heavy Work with six digits apiece. Mallenger and Dillenbeck each put five points through the loop. The game, lacking in the defensive play featured by the locals in thejefferson game, was exciting from the beginning to the end. Apperson, Poly's All-City guard, played his usual sparkling game beneath the basket, saving the Blue and Gold more than one score. This dav was Poly's. The boys seemed to be able to sink shots from all angles. 5913 +5l:1601?+ POLY vs. LINCOLN The Poly varsity encountered another snag in the league race when they tangled with the Railsplitters, later thelflagiwinnersfandh beaten, 35 to 19,ionq the Eman- cipator's court. The Mechanics were outclassed by the Lincolnites and did not threaten against the strong Railsplitters cnce. The shining light of the Lincoln offense was their fast- breaking forward wall, Captain Pazdra and Guttero. Pazdra played only a quarter and a half and rang up IZ points. Guttero, center of the team, was also well up in the point column. Dillenbeck, Poly's center, was high point man of the jessonites, with io points to his credit. The main feature of the game was the fast-breaking Lincoln team. It literally had the Poly Eve off its feet by their dazzling style of play, through every quarter. POLY vs. L. A. Meeting our arch rival, Los Angeles High, in the fifth league game, the Mechanics, playing inspired basketball, took a moral victory from the Romans although the score read Poly 33-L. A. 35. Poly, putting up the kind of fight which has made Poly-L. A. games traditional, rang up I7 points in the last quarter to take the lead 30 to 7.8 with forty seconds to go. Then a lucky set-up shot by Nemer, L. A. forward, tied the score as the gun sounded the end of the game. This forced an extra three minute quarter. The score was then tied again 33 to 33. Laird of L. A., making the most spectacular shot ever seen on a high school court, threw the ball from his own foul line and scored a basket as the game ended. This last shot gave L.A. the two-point edge and the game. Lyons of Poly, captured high point honors with 17. digits. Apperson, Poly's guard, played the finest defensive game ever shown by a high school athlete. POLY vs. MANUAL ARTS Poly's Parrots lost their sixth and concluding league game to the Manual Arts Toilers, I9 to 15, in the Poly gym. This game marked the end of the high school careers of Captain Hutchins, Happy Apperson, Slim Dillenbeck, Walter Lyons, and Harold Mallenger, five Poly regulars. All five did their very best and Poly is proud of them. The game was not so thrilling as it should have been. The Toilers took all honors. High points went to Captain Schwartz of the Purple and Gray. A line defensive game was played by Oudermeulen, Poly's only returning emblem bearer. Marty will prob- ably play guard again next year. The strong Lincoln Railsplitters captured the city championship, winning six straight games. The Los Angeles Romans lost but one game and placed second. Jeff- erson had the strongest team in the history of that school and placed third. Poly placed sixth in the league standings. This was Coach Ralph Jesson's first year at coaching basketball and the school should be proof of his efforts, for very rarely can a coach take over the reins of a team and bring home the championship in the first year. .,5U6133,. CLASS B BASKETBALL The lightweight basketball team engaged in a triple tie for the championship of the City League in 1930. The other two teams that tied for this honor were Manual and Hollywood. Each won four games and lost two. The Class B team was one of the strongest in the City League. They won their first four games in succession, show- ing far better teamwork and a smoother attack than any of the opposing squads. They were captained by Art Mollner, who was easily the most outstanding center in local prep circles. Mollner was high-point man in the majority of the games played. The forwards were Joe Vivonia and joe Groman. Both of these lads were stellar cagemen. Burton and Yasuda alternated at the running guard position. Smith upheld the honor of the Mechanics' basket territory. The cagemen journeyed over to the Redshirt school for the first game. It was won by the Poly crew with the score of 36 to 7.8. This was a very exciting game. Groman and Mollner shot baskets from all over the court in the closing period. ln the next fray, the local casaba players defeated Jeff 18 to 13. Smith and Yasuda played well at guard in this fracas. Franklin was the next school to be defeated. The score this time was 39-13. The next game was the first upset that the babes received. The Lincoln Tigers defeated the Poly squad 2.1-19. This game should not have been lost. The local team tried its best but was not able to overcome the lead that the Tigers piled up. Cowan, Lincoln forward, tied for high score with Mollner, each boy making eight digits. The Roman lightweights were outclassed by the light and drive of the Poly squad. In this instance the score was 7.4 to 17. The outcome of the fracas was never in doubt. Up to this time the championship was in the hands of the Parrot squad. Seldom has there been seen on the Poly court a more thrilling game. The Manual babes downed the Poly team 7.1 to 18. This defeat caused the triple tie for the pennant. --5316213411 l CLASS C BASKETBALL Although the midget basketball team started well on their way to win the City League pennant by defeating the strong Hollywood quintet ZI to 18, they dropped back and were defeated in the four other games on their schedule. Lincoln won the championshipin the basketball domain. Poly showed very good basketball in the Hollywood encounter when they overcame a very large margin to defeat the Redshirt Cagemen in the last few minutes of play. At the end of the first half, the Sheik team was leading II to 4. The Mechanic Eve, led by Flva Rogers, a forward, staged a remarkable comeback in the last canto. The Poly boys sank baskets from every angle. Rogers made I3 of the Parrots' 'LI points in this fracas. The first setback was received from the hands of Franklin. The Panthers were steadier than was expected and downed the Polyires with a score of zo to 17. The Franklin Cees leaped into the lead with the opening whistle and did not relinquish it. Sammy Robman led the Pariot defense. The next loss was due to the Manual Arts squad, who defeated the local team I4 to 7. Friedman, a forward, was Poly's high-point man with 3 digits to his credit. Yoshio Saito did splendid work on the Artisan team. The next game continued the series of setbacks that these boys met this season. Lincoln was the victor in this fray with a score of 7.5 to 13. The tilt was lost on the Mechanic court. A very smooth passing attack and wonderful teamwork identified the Tigers as one of the best quintets of midget-cagemen in the City loop. The Mechanic squad held these boys to a 7 to 7 tie in the first half, but they were soon overwhelmed in the latter part of the game. The final score was L5 to 13. Mitshuhashi, flashy Lincoln forward, was high-scorer of the tilt with 9 units. Rogers, on the Poly team, was close behind him with 8 points. The Manual Arts basketball boys gave a severe drubbing to the locals in the fourth game of the season. The score was I4 to 7. Friedman, stellar forward, was high-point man for Poly. The score of the final game, Poly and L. A., was zo to I7 in favor of the Romans. VARSITY TRACK LETTERMEN Captain Glenn Mack LaVern Cooper . James LuValle . Sinclair Lott . Norman Curtis .

The final result was 62. to 42. in favor of the Toilets in the annual track- fest held at the Artisan school. The Manual Varsity was unexpectedly strong in the sprints, taking a first and second in both of these events. The times announced by Coach Sid Foster, the Artisan track mentor, seemed a little fast, the century was said to be won in IO seconds flat, and the 2.2.0 in 2.2..8 seconds. An upset of major importance featured the 440 when Lott, the Mechanic runner, passed Carmichael at the tape. The time for this race was announced at 51.8 seconds. The high hurdles ended in a big mixup. At the conclusion of this race it was found that too much space had been left between two of the hurdles. Nearly all of the entries had knocked down hurdles and so it was decided to count the places as the boys had finished. This gave Glenn Mack first, with Moeller of Manual second, and Davidson of Poly third. Captain Glenn Mack won the low sticks. The time for this race, 2.5.6, is fast considering the fact that Glenn ran around a curve. Poly's sole hope in the mile, Norman Curtis, was surrounded by five Manual Arts runners during the better part of the race. Lindsay and Stankovich tied for first in the pole vault at II feet, 3 inches. The relay was won by the Artisan squad. POLY vs. JEFFERSON Poly emerged from a drizzling downpour to win the second dual meet of the season fromjefferson on the Democrat track. The final score was 58 2.-3 to 45 1-3. The Golden Tornado showed a bit of improvement over the preceding week by scoring eight firsts on the Jefferson team. Carmichael, of the Democrat squad, who won the quarter-mile in the City Meet last year, was beaten by Lott in 52.6 seconds. Cooper, P01y's sprint ace, won the 100 from Carmichael in 10.2. seconds. LaVerne got off to a wonderful start and sprinted hard the last ten yards. Hassan of the jeff squad pulled away from Vernon Graves of Poly to win the half mile in 2.:o6.4. Arthur Mollner of Poly ran a nice race to take third in this event. Stankovich defeated Dick Lindsay and Sexton of Jefferson to win the pole vault. The winning height was measured at II feet 6 inches. Captain Glenn Mack scored wins in both hurdle races, taking the lows in 2.5.8 and the high sticks in 16.6 seconds. Stockbridge of Poly nosed out Flennoy of Jeff to take second in the lows and finished behind the same lad to cop a third place in the high timbers. Poly's hopes in the high jump were eliminated by Sexton of Jefferson who took the event at 5 feet 8 inches. Norman Curtis ran a good race to win the mile in 4:48. Gibson of Poly took second in the shot to Steiner ofjefferson. Poly won the relay race, leading the Democrat team the entire eight laps. POLY vs. L. A. Poly was defeated by L. A. in a dual track meet by a score of 63 to 41. This makes twelve straight years that the Romans have won this annual event. As usual the Pioneer tracksters ran better races than they had run earlier in the season. They performed over their heads, scoring a full sweep in the 100 and first and second in the 2.10. Captain Bray of the Pioneer squad won this event with Cheshire second and Williams of L. A. third. The next major upset was scored in the mile run when, in the sprint for the tape, Harry Gentry of L. A. passed Curtis of the Mechanic squad. ns5f16513a- The winner was clocked in 4:47..7.. This was a good race as Curtis had a comfortable lead until the last half of the last lap. Then Gentry started to sprint with a hard, driving stride and was just able to pass the Poly lad. Captain Glenn Mack had a difficult time winning the highs and lows against Potter ofL. A. He was timed in the highs at 16.4 seconds and in the lows the watch registered 7.5.4. Coach Graves re- ceived a slight surprise when his two quarter-milers ran second and third to Lott of Poly. Lott was timed in 57..6. LaVerne Cooper made a good leap in the broad jump to place second. This event was won by Crawford of L. A. with a leap of 7.1 feet IO 1-7. inches. Vignolo and Baranov tied for first in the high jump with the bar at 5 feet IO inches. Stankovich and Rothert of L. A. tied for first in the pole vault at 17. feet. Gibson took second to Harris of L. A. in the shot put. The meet closed with the Romans annexing the last and most interesting event, the relay in 3:05.4. POLY vs. LINCOLN AND FRANKLIN With a win over Lincoln and Franklin to their credit, the Poly Varsity also ended the fourth track meet of the season with a new school to their credit. The final score was Poly, 53 5-6, Franklin, 40 1-3, Lincoln, 36 5-6. The new school record is held by Dick Lindsay in the pole vault at 17. feet 7 3-4 inches. This breaks the record held by the late Irving Stamnes at 17. feet 3 3-4 inches. Dick tied in the pole vault, however, with Reinhardt of Lincoln. Matt Stankovich vaulted Il feet to tie for third place but was not able to vault the winning height. The scene of the meet, the Occidental track, showed in the fast times that resulted. The best features of the day were the two hurdles which saw the defeat of Captain Glenn Mack by Captain Reed of Lincoln. Reed beat Glenn by a few scant yards in the highs and in the lows the victor was only a shade ahead. Carter of Franklin heaved the iron ball out to the surprising distance of 51 feet 6 inches. Cooper of Poly won the century from a fast field in 10.7. seconds. Jobe of Franklin copped the furlong in 7.1.8 seconds. Poly's relay team tied the school record of 3 :o4 by winning that event. lXDLY'vs.fKDLLYWVCXDD The Hollywood track meet started with such an orgy of point-gathering by the Sheiks that the Poly fans were frightened at first. They had 7.0 points to the Parrots' 7 at the end of the third event. Then the shot put results came in, disclosing to the rooters that the Mechanics had scored a clean sweep. For the second time this season the Mechanics were shut out of the century. Danniger won this event in 10.4 seconds. However, Cooper placed second in the furlong to the same lad. Danniger's time in the 7.7.0 was 13 seconds flat. Jimmy LuValle surprised by winning the 440 from his teammate Lott. He was clocked in 57..6 seconds. Zabriskie of the Sheiks won the high hurdles from Mack in 16.3 seconds. Captain Mack came back to win the lows in 15.6 seconds. Due to the fact that Curtis, Poly's premier miler, had an injured side and stayed out of the race, Poly did well to take second and third in this event. Del Beato of the Hollywood aggregation won this in 4.55. Dick Lindsay took the pole vault at twelve feet, with Stankovich second and Captain Vacariello third. Pike of Hollywood came first in the high jump at 5 feet IO inches. Bob Vignolo took second, with Jones of Hollywood third. Cooper made a mark of 7.0 feet 3 inches to win the broad jump. .,.4j1661g,.. .I , . CITY MEET A new City Meet record was made in the shot put by Don Carter of Franklin high school. Don shoved his iron pellet out 57. feet 6.5 inches. Gibson of Poly placed fifth in the weight event with a 45 foot heave. Martin of Manual Arts and Baranov of Los Angeles tied for first in the high jump at 6 feet. Vignolo engaged in a four-way tie for third place at 5 feet II inches. Manual Arts had three men out of four places in the mile run. jimmy Lawrence, captain of the Artisan squad, won this event in 4:35. Gentry of the Pioneers came in second but was disqualified for cutting in on a Poly runner. Much honor is due to Norman Curtis who, handicapped by an injury, finished the race ahead of most of the field. He collapsed at the end of the event. Del Beato of Hollywood swooned on the second lap and was carried off the Held by his teammates. Sam Gettys, a former Poly athlete, scored an upset in the broad jump when he defeated Marvin Crawford of the Romans. He won with a leap of 7.7. feet 1-7. inch. The Pioneers made five points by placing second and third. Crawford made three of these markers and Almada, two. Joe Danniger of Hollywood won the century in 10.4 seconds. Williams of L. A. placed second. Jobe of Franklin upset the old dope bucket when he took the furlong in 7.1 4-5 seconds. Bray, another Roman, was second in this event. The relay was won by the Manual Arts varsity in 3:o7..6. L. A. took the lead at the start, Poly was second. Manual, L. A., and Poly soon led the rest of the field by fifteen yards. Poly pulled off some bad baton passes. Captain Glenn Mack climaxed a day of splendid performances by running a fast lap in this event. With the relay the deciding factor in the Major City League track meet, Manual Arts annexed first place and Won the title with 30 5-8 points. The Romans took second with 7.9 points and the Mechanics third with 16 3-8 markers in this annual event held on the L. A. high track Friday, April II. Points were closely contested between the three schools as the score shows. The other squads placed as follows: Franklin, I7 1-7., Hollywood, 16gJefferson, II, Lincoln, 7. The biggest upset from the Parrots' point of View was the quarter-mile which was won by James LuValle of Poly from a classy group of runners. Sinclair Lott of Poly took fourth, although his season's record was better than LuValle's. Poly got a break when Saterfield of Manual, who was favored to win, was set back nine yards for jumping the gun. LuValle was clocked in 51.7. seconds. Captain Glenn Mack came through to win the low hurdles from Reed on Lincoln, who had beaten him in a previous meet. Mack's time in the lows was 7.5.8 seconds. Mack took second in the highs to Potter of L. A., who was clocked in 16 seconds flat. This established the Captain of the Blue and Gold track squad as the high point man of the meet with eight digits to his credit. Dick Lindsay vaulted IZ feet 6 inches to take pole vault honors for the Mechanics. Stankovich of Poly, Reinhardt of Lincoln, and Sexton of Jefferson tied for second in this event. Graves of Poly ran a heady race to place third in the opener, the half-mile. Priester, the Hollywood flash, won the race in 7.:oo.4. Hassan of Jeff copped second place honors. Ms5jl67l3+' 1Ql:l68bP +q1e9B+ SGUTHERN CALIFORNIA TRACK MEET The small group of contestants that represented Poly in the Southern California Track Meet emerged from the melee in a tie for fourth place with IO 5-8 points. Santa Ana High won the meet with I7 markers. The Mechanics led all City League schools on this day. Dick Lindsay led the blue and gold athletes by taking a first place in the pole vault and establishing a new school record in this event of I1 feet, 9 inches. James LuValle was barely beaten in the 44o by Satterfield of Manual. Poly's hopes re- ceived a severe setback when Captain Glenn Mack hit the first two low hurdles in the preliminary heat and failed to qualify. In the highs he stumbled and fell just as he neared the tape. He was given a fifth place. Bob Vignolo raised himself to glory by clearing 6 feet to tie with four other lads for second in the high jump. The Parrot relay team was not fast enough for the competition and placed a .poor sixth. San Diego won the baton-passing event in 1131. STATE TRACK MEET The four men who qualified for the State Meet were followed by bad luck all the way to Berkeley where they were to compete. James LuValle in the quarter-mile, Dick Lindsay and Matt Stankovich in the pole vault, and Bob Vignolo in the high jump, competed for Poly. LuValle was given the seventh lane in the second row and was unable to pass the Held that spread out in front of him. He failed to place. Bob Vignolo jumped 5 feet, I 1 1-7. inches and failed to place in this event. Four boys tied for second at 6 feet, and the winning height was 6 feet, 1 inch. Stankovich and Lindsay got all of the points that the Parrots made which were only 3 1-4. These two boys tied for second with four others in their event. The entire meet was won by San Diego, Santa Ana, and Sacramento, Who engaged in a triple tie for first. --aSjl7Ol?+ CLASS B TRACK Poly's 1930 class B track and field squad had a fairly successful season, placing third in the City and Southern California meets. In the first meet of the season, Coach Jesson's spikesters defeated the Franklin Kitefliers, 54 to 9.3. Alegata showed early season form in winning the 100 and broad jump. Manual Arts came to Poly for the second dual meet and defeated the Mechanics SI 1-7. to 43 1-Q.. The Parrots returned to form in the third meet to defeat the Democrats by a top-heavy score. The Blue and Gold squad lost a tough meet to the Romans, 53 to 49., on the winners' oval. The all- round strength of the L. A. athletes was too much for the Poly boys. The Railsplitters did not give the Parrot team much competition and Poly won, 60 to 35. In the last dual meet Hollywood fell before the Poly boys, 63 to 31. Alegata ran the fastest race of his career to take the century in 10.1 seconds. In the City Meet Poly took third place with 16 1-6g Jefferson won the champion- ship with 14 digits, and L. A. placed second. Poly earned her points by placing two men in the 660, first in the century, and gaining points in the high jump and pole vault. Siegal ran a beautiful race to take first with Valley second in the 660. Alegata scored first in the 100. Friedman and Kieth tied for third in the high jump and Troy and Jackson tied for fourth in the pole vault. Poly's class B Cinder team ran up IO 7-8 points in the annual Southern California meet at L. A. High. Citrus Union High took the title with I4 digits. Cooper, Alegata, and Friedman scored points for the Blue and Gold team. Cooper was a member of the varsity until the Southern California meet and then he made class B points and was entered in the 100 and 7.7.0. He took first in the 100 and third in the 7.2.0. Alegata placed fifth in the century. Friedman tied for third in the high jump. The relay team won third place. will 7 113+ CLASS C TRACK The Mechanic 1930 class C cinder squad had a hard season, winning but one dual meet and placing fourth in both the city and Southern California meets. The Parrots main strength lay in Arai, Chaix, and Arikawa. These boys scored the majority of the points made during the season. The Parrots won their first trackfest from the Franklin spikesters, 63 to 14. Arikawa was high point man with fifteen digits. He scored firsts in the shot, high jump, and 660. Arai took first in the go and 1oo yard dashes. Manual Arts then took a close meet from the local boys by the relay. The final score was 41 1-9. to 35 1-1. In the next meet Jefferson beat the Mechanics on Dunn Field 411-4 to 9.9 3-4, The high light of the meet was Poly's clean sweep in the high jump. L. A. showed un- expected strength in the next tilt and swamped the Blue and Gold team 57 to zo. The team lost their last dual meet to Lincoln, 44 to 33. Spencer, Chaix, Arai, and Arikawa represented Poly in the City Meet. Chaix scored a first in the go yard dash. Arai took first in the 1oo, and Spencer placed third in the 660. Arikawa had an off day and was able to take only second place. This was his first defeat. These points gave Poly fourth place with I4 markers. ln the Southern California trackfest the midgets seemed to have another off day and were able to score only 8 digits. Arikawa made up for his defeat in the city meet and took first place from the best shot putters in the state. Chaix scored the only other points, taking fourth in the go yard dash. The relay team grabbed third place in a mild upset ot the dope. Coach Ralph ,lesson awarded class C letters to the following members of the squad: Arai, Chaix, Arikawa, Haggerty, Tassoupoulis, Boyle, Yamaguchi, Atkinson, Rogers, and Spencer. --+Sll72l5+r CROSS--COUNTRY The Polytechnic cross-country team of this year put up a hard fight against great odds. The first meet of the season, with Hollywood, was held between the halves of the Poly-Hollywood football game. The Hollywood team had a great deal more experience than the Parrots. The meet was a one-sided affair led by the Redshirts. In the second meet, the score was nearly even. This meet was with Jefferson and was held between the halves of the football game. Jefferson won by seven points, but the Poly boys showed much improvement over their first encounter. The third meet took place at the Coliseum between halves of the Poly-L.A. football game. The Romans were confident of an easy victory over their bitter rivals, but the race proved the best one of the year and created so much excitement that it almost equaled the day's game of football in thrills. L.A. took the meet by one point. After the L. A. bout, training was started for the City and Southern California meets. These were held on the Breakfast Club course located at Griffith Park. The first win of the year for the Poly boys was made against Manual's team in a practice meet over this course. It was taken by five points. The City Meet proved to be fast and was won by the team from Hollywood High. Poly's team of leather-lungers took fifth place. The Southern California Meet was held one week later and was won in a faster time than the City. The race was a tie between Long Beach and Belmont for first place. Hollywood High finished third. Poly took sixth place, beating out several teams. This meet finished the race for supremacy for the Poly boys. Their entire season was a hard one but they did the best they could. Letters were awarded to eleven men. This is the largest number of letters that has ever been given out to any single cross-country team at Poly. The lettermen were: Vernon Graves, Mac Price, Biff Hoffman, Howard Earl, Norman Curtis, Francis Grant, Robert Bakeman, Burton Stevenson, C. W. Whitehurst, Pete Lang, and Harry Peters. .ggi 1 7 3134. .. .. M POLY'S 1930 BASEBALL TEAM Nine Poly boys earned their letters on Poly's 1930 baseball team. They were: Kal- ionzes, catcher, two-year lettermang Ybarra, pitcher, two-year letterman, Miller, first base, one-year letrerman, Noll, second base, one-year lettermang Gardner, left field, one-year letterman, Taylor, center Held, two-year lettermang and Yamate, right field, one-year letterman. Kalionzes, Ybarra, Longdin, Taylor, and Yamate played their last game for Poly this year. All did their very best, and Poly should certainly be proud of their efforts. Kalionzes' work behind the plate was especially outstanding. He was mentioned for the mythical All-City team. Ybarra played right field and pitcher for Poly during his two years of service. Longdin played for two years on the second string, and in his last year made the varsity shortstop position. Taylor was probably the most brilliant center fielder ever to grace Poly's roster. Yamate also played two years on the second string, and in his last year made the varsity. Coach Mahoney has the makings of a fine team returning next year. Miller, this year's first baseman, will probably take over the mound duties next year. Noll will again be at his old position at second base. Goodman, general utility man, is likely to play the third sack again next season. He has had two years experience playing for Poly already. Gardner will take over Kalionzes' duties behind the plate, as he is an accomplished catcher. Coach Bell has developed many useful men on his second string this season who will probably be on the varsity next year. The most promising is Helkee, pitcher. He pitched fine ball throughout the season. Velgas has also shown much promise during the year. Following is a list of the lettermen of the second string for 1930: Tanaka, Wilde, Adkisn, Cora, Helkee, Walker, Pierose, Gladieux, and Nelson. 1 7 413. POLY vs. L. A. Coach Mahoney's Poly nine lost their first league contest on Housh Field to the strong Roman horsehiders, 9-1. The Mechanics fought until the ninth stanza but were unable to overcome the Roman lead piled up in the fourth inning. Behind the masterful pitching of Melo Almada, the Blue and Gold team did not once threaten the Pioneer margin. Almada held the Polyites to five scattered hits. Ybarra, the Parrots' chucker, was nicked for eight blows. The highlight of the con- test was Almada's circuit clout in the fourth stanza. Ybarra had held the Romans in check up until this inning, but after this homer the Gophers found Ybarra and forced four runs across the plate, and the game was in the bag for Coach White's nine. Inexperience cost the Mechanics another win over our rival, five errors were com- mitted by the Poly squad. The Romans made three errors. Gardner starred at the plate for Poly, leading the Parrot sluggers with a triple which scored Poly's only run. Kalionzes, acting captain, easily outclassed the Roman flash, Greer, behind the plate. Three tenth graders represented Poly in this first contest, and the experience they gained in the game should stand them in good stead for next year's work. The boys were: Noll at second, Miller on first, and Gardner in left field. Captain Kalionzes, Ybarra, Longdin, Goodman, Yamate, and Taylor composed the rest of the Poly wil- low wielders. POLY vs. HOLLYWOOD Landing on Collins, Hollywood pitcher, in the seventh and eighth innings, Coach Mahoney's varsity baseball squad defeated the Hollywood Stars, 6-1. After losing to the Romans, the Mechanics came back in this, the second league contest, to show all-round strength in every department of the national pastime. Ybarra was on the mound for the Blue and Gold willow wielders and allowed the Sheiks but six scattered hits. Goodman and Gardner starred at the plate for the Me- chanics. Al Goodman, third sacker, got two hits, one a single and the other a triple, which went into the farthest corner of Dunn Field, the golf cage, in four times at bat. jack Gardner also got two blows, one single and the other a triple in four times at bat. The game was hard fought from beginning to end. The score was tied, I-I, until the stretch inning, the seventh, then the Parrots found Captain Collins, the Pashmen's pill-tosser, and pounded two runs across the plate. The eighth stanza was a repeti- tion of the seventh inning and three more runs were scored. The Hollywood batsmen could not see Ybarra after the first inning when they scored their only run on an un- avoidable error. They were shut out the rest of the game. Ybarra was also acting captain for this game. Kalionzes played his usual consistent game behind the plate. Al Goodman's timely hitting was the sensation of the afternoon and caused him to be boosted for the All-City team. Kalionzes, Ybarra, Miller, Noll, Longdin, Good- man, Gardner, Taylor, and Yamate were on the field fighting for Poly's first victory in the I93O baseball season. All these boys should be given due credit for this, Poly's eleventh victory in twelve years of competition with the Hollywood Sheiks. 1 7 SEQ.. POLY vs. LINCOLN The Poly varsity was defeated by the strong Lincoln Railsplitters, 1473, on Dunn' Field in the third league tilt. Poly's willow wielders played a hard but losing game against the pennant favorites, the Tigers, but were unable to find the Lincoln pitchers. The Mechanics scored the first run of the game in the first inning. Longdin was hit with a pitched ball and was sacrificed to second base by Taylor. Longdin then scored when Kalionzes got an infield hit. The Railsplitters scored three runs in the second stanza. Poly then tied the score in their half of the inning. The fourth inning was Poly's 'AWaterloo. The murders' row of the Tiger team came up on the batting order and when the inning was over it was found that eight runs had been scored, and the game was in the bag for the Tiger nine. The Lincolnites scored three more runs in their half of the sixth inning. Coach Mahoney's horsehiders played a fine game, but the timely hitting of Coach Malette's boys proved the deciding factor of the fracas. Poly's leading slugger was Kalionzes, getting three hits in four times at the plate. The Tigers used three pitchers, Guerra, Niali, and French. Poly had Ybarra and Miller on the mound. Miller was Poly's regular first base man, but Coach Mahoney will probably use him on the pitch- ing stafi' next year. He pitched a good game for the few innings that he chucked against the Lincoln sluggers. POLY vs. MANUAL Poly's Mechanic baseball nine came back in the third league contest to defeat the Manual Arts Toilers, 7-4. The game was hard fought from beginning to end, Coach Cop Mahoney's horsehiders having the edge throughout the contest. The score was in doubt up until after the seventh inning when the Blue and Gold willow wielders scored four runs. Up until this time the score was 3 and 7. in the favor of the Parrots. Ybarra was on the mound for the Poly squad and pitched a fine game. He allowed the Toiler sluggers but eleven hits. Poly nicked two Manual pitchers, Morris, and Olsen, for eight bingles. The Purple and Gray team got more hits that the Poly squad, but Ybarra kept them well scattered, and the Parrots' margin was never in danger. Coach Mahoney's ath- letes bunched their hits and came through with a victory. Al Goodman was acting captain for the day and came through in fine style with a double in the seventh inning when the bases were loaded. This timely hit practically put the game in the bag. Goodman got two hits in four times at bat. lt is said that a pitcher is the weakest hitter on any team, but this was disproved by our own chucker, Henry Ybarra. He took top honors for the day at the plate as well as on the mound. He batted a thousand per cent in this tilt, getting four hits in four times at the plate. His timely double, also in the seventh inning, accounted for the other two runs, scored in that inning. The Poly team was head and shoulders above the Artisan nine in every department of the game. Two new Poly boys, Yasuda and Ivey, were given a trial in this tilt. Both gave a good account of themselves in this, their first game for Poly.

The match was won by the L.A. squad, 5-o. The golfers from the Pioneer institution defeated all of the Poly men. The Mechanics' first man, Vernon Graves, shot an 83. He played against King Brown, who ended two up and one to play. The second man from Poly, Holly Ivey, played the course in 85 to his competitor Jacobson's 81. Holly's match ended seven up and six to play. Salas, third ranking Parrot player, finished with an 88, four up and two holes to go. He was matched against a player who shot an 84. The fourth Mechanic man was Tex Whitehurst who lost six down and four to go. The fifth ranking player, Frank Lain, lost his match io down and seven to play. The next tilt was with the powerful Hollywood High School divot-diggers at the Potrero Country Club. The Redshirts won by the overwhelming score of 5-o. But these matches were not as close as the score indicates. Joe Graves of Hollywood, in order to win his match with Vernon Graves of Poly, had to sink a ten-foot put on the eighteenth green. Vernon, after being two down at the turn, gained a one-hole margin with three left to play. The Sheik lad evened the score on the sixteenth, they halved the seventeenth with bogie fives, and the Hollywood boy took the last hole with a birdie four. These are the contests that were in doubt. The Redshirt second man, Bert Honey, scored a 6 to 4 victory over Tex Whitehurst. The Hollywood lad turned the half-way mark with a three-up margin and bagged three pars and a birdie to end the match on the fourteenth green. Captain Parker of Hollywood defeated the third ranking Parrot player, 6 to 4. Vic Kelley won the fourth frame.

QSIISOIQQ-I G. A. A. PLAY DAY AT FREMONT s The fourth annual Play Day, sponsored by the Girls' Athletic Association ofjohn C. Fremont High School, was held December 4. In a hard fought speedball game, the Polytechnic Juniors and the Fremont Juniors staged a contest that was most ex- citing for both players and spectators. At the end of the first half, Poly was leading, 3-o. In the beginning ofthe second half, Fremont staged a pretty come-back, and at the end of the third quarter had tied the score. It was then anybody's game with a fair field and no favor. However, by a mighty rally in the fourth quarter, the Poly players succeeded in making the decisive point that gave them the game. The speed- ball game between the Poly Outdoor Club and the Fremont Seniors resulted in another victory for Polytechnic by a score of 17e5. In the hockey contest, played by the Senior girls' team of Manual Arts High School and Polytechnic Seniors, our girls won by a score of 3-o. The one defeat of the meet was suffered by the Poly Sophomore volleyball team which was defeated by the Sophomores of Venice High School. In this event, Polytechnic took the first of the three games played, Venice winning the other two. At the conclusion of the games, refreshments were served in the gymnasium, beau- tifully decorated in Christmas greens. A brief address of welcome by Miss Meredith, girls' vice-principal of Fremont High School, followed by responses from the presi- dents of the Girls' Athletic Associations of each school in attendance closed the day. The meet at Fremont especially brought out the advantages of these Play Days. Fremont's immense athletic field was a scene of continuous action from the beginning ofthe games until the final whistle was sounded. All this time not a single expression of ill-feeling or criticism was heard. These Play Days are perhaps the most worthwhile opportunity the girls of differ- ent schools have really to know each other. They must recognize the rules of the field and good sportsmanship. They learn to lose without complaint, to keep a level head in success, and to admire an opponent and give her due credit. G. A. A. PLAY DAY AT HOLLYWOOD On March 6, the Girls' Athletic Association of Hollywood High School was hostess to the competing teams of Bell, Beverly Hills, Polytechnic, and Roosevelt. Baseball, speedball, tennis, basketball, volleyball, swimming, and rifle-shooting were the sports enjoyed. Polytechnic entered two basketball teams, one from the Outdoor Club, the other from the Seasonal Sports Coaching Council. A rifle team was also entered. Our teams did not show up well in the meet, losing both the basketball games to Holly- Wood and being defeated by ten points in the rifle meet. A number of unfortunate circumstances kept some of Poly's best performers from the field. But despite the bad luck encountered and poor showing made in the field events, the girls attending from school had a most enjoyable afternoon. The members of Hollywood's Athletic Association, acting as hostesses, took the sharp edge of the defeat entirely away by their kindness and hospitality in the informal and thoroughly delightful hi jinxs staged immediately at the close of the field events.

A. A. PLAY DAY AT POLYTECHNIC The Girls' Athletic Association of Poly held an invitational Play Day on April 3. The schools invited to participate were Fremont, Belmont, and Franklin. In order to handle details, each club of Poly's G. A. A. accepted the responsibility of one definite feature of the day's program. The Gym Club had charge of the decorations, the Rifle Club and Seasonal Sports Coaching Council acted on the reception committee, and the Outdoor Club had charge of the entertainment. The Hockey Club supervised refreshments. Each school invited sent two teams of basketball and one of volley- ball. Fremont was represented by both volleyball and hockey players, and Belmont likewise. All of the events were interesting. ln basketball we did not show up well, losing both games to the Franklin players. Poly was represented in the first game by the Outdoor Club team. The players were Edith Henderson, Mae Heath, Genevieve Schnuckel, Virginia Wilcox, Sherma Green, Jane Dunbar, Helen Dietrich, Ruth Reinke, and Eleanor Sweet. In the next game the Seasonal Sports team took the field for Poly, the lineup including Vivian Kokal, Margaret Atkinson, May David, Mar- jorie Wolfe, Mary Curley, and Lorene Kokal. Poly did not compete in the volleyball events. Two games were played. The first, Franklin Sophs versus Fremont Sophs, was captured by Fremont. The second, Fremont Juniors versus Belmont Juniors, re- sulted in a victory for Belmont. GIRLS' GYM NOTES October 15-Rifle Club outing in Griffith Park.

ACTIVITIES OF THE RESERVE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS Major Duni commanded military activities in Polytechnic during the fall term. In this period training was more vigorous than usual. The unit aided the American Legion in the observance of Armistice Day, marching in the great parade of the members ofthe National Defense units. The Rifle Team, composed of the crack shots, made a large number of awards. Gold medals were given Walter Walcott and Henry james, two ranking sergeants. Proficiency awards for this term were presented Captain r-i5Il8813+- 1 Donald Melvin, officer, Sergeant Rex Allenbrand, non-commissioned officer, and Private Priseler, most proficient man in the unit. The medals are the result of a term's hard work. ' In addition to school affairs, the members of the Corps enjoyed life abroad also. The Drill Team, besides several theater bookings, generously aided the rather stren- uous recruiting campaign by appearing at Sentous, John Adams, and several other junior high schools. Three horseback rides in the San Fernando Valley are among the joyous events remembered. Major Melvin, in command during the summer term, had a larger unit. The annual trip to Fort McArthur and San Pedro harbor was taken. After inspecting the sea- defense guns and equipment of the fort, the unit took to the water, an i, after touring the whole harbor past merchant vessels and men-o'-war, went aboard the enormous Saratoga, largest aircraft carrier of the fleet. Officers of the Army and Navy accom- panied the cadets and explained the functions of guns, planes, and parts of the vessel. - Captain Meredith, inspecting officer of the Junior R.O.T.C. for the Ninth Corps Area, reviewed and inspected the unit during February. Too small to be an honor dchool, nevertheless, the unit of Polytechnic obtained a high ranking. I Field Day, annual feature of summer term activities, came in May. The equipment race, faster and funnier, the drill-down, manual-of-arms contests, and the sabre manual competition showed the results of faithful practice. Medals were given in all events. The Drill Team, most active this terrn, had bookings at many laige theatres. It also went to several junior high schools, and appeared on our school stage. Medals were awarded to Lieutenants Davis and Dickinson, the leaders, and members Parker, Walker, Lipman, Fichtel, Brisgill, Kostock, Steinberger, Watson, Priseler, and Dwinnell. Commissions and warrants were presented at a special aud call. Proficiency medals were given First Lieutenant William Bryant, 0Hicer, First Sergeant jack Lipman, non-commissioned officer, and Private Glenn Watson, most proficient cadet. Colonel Clark briefly touched on the growth in Polytechnic of the R.O.T.C. A review in honor of the graduating members and the usual tests for promotion and advanced rating terminated a successful year.

Notes by the Way Camp, a magic word for the Army. In serrmer it is the Citizens' Military Training Corps where Cavalry, Field Artillery, Machine Gun Corps, and the other branches of the service supplement the infantry drill of the school. Here in the bar- racks of the old presidio of Monterey or in the tents of Camp Del Monte, the cadets live during a month of ideal outdoor life. Each day they rise early, ride hard, oi travel far afoot over the wide surrounding plains. At sunset comes evening parade, then a hungry crew storms the mess-hall. Later, it's to Monterey, and finally taps sends them, weary and happy, to their cots. Thirty days of drill and fun, then it is, MSO long, Camp! On to next summer! Winter Camp breaks the mid-year routine. By custom immemorial, that is of the last four years, it always occurs during the Thanksgiving holidays. This year was especially successful. Some fifty Polytechnic cadets under Major Duni, Adjutant Bentall, principal, and Mr. Ballou, adviser, departed for Big Bear. Under the pines, near Peter Pan Lodge, were pitched the pup tents. Two by two we slept in these at night. Down the lines of tents, Company Street, blazed a succession of cheery fires, warming the chill night air. Among these fires stalked sleepy guards, replenishing them with logs and on the lookout for stray sparks. By day we played, hiked, rode, and satisfied mountain appetites with Bentall's meals. By night there was scouting and patrolling practice in the dark woods, perhaps a last snack of hoarded food, much bundling up and activity to keep warm in the six-below-freezing air. At ten o'clock all turned in, sleeping twixt blankets on mattresses of the soft pine needles. Four days, and then the hundred mile trek to town, penniless, bedraggled, but liking it. The Winter Military Ball was a colorful affair. The unusual decorations, created by Othella Brown, Battalion Sponsor, and a corps of capable assistants, together with a splendid orchestra contributed in full measure to the success of the evening. With Bob Wickersham and Trucy Pratt, Poly's most noted gleemen, the gathering was complete. The Polytechnic Drill Team, led by Sergeant Richard Davis with new acts originated especially for the occasion, was much enjoyed. A special dance to determine the best couple on the floor resulted in the awarding of two silver sabres to the triumphant pair. When the clock struck twelve, in a twinkling the floor was deserted. Presently the group met again in the appointed rendezvous, the Hollywood Pig'n Whistle. Here merrily they supped together and then departed with one more happy memory of high school days. The summer ball, as is the tradition, was the 1'HOSt social affair of the year. Both gyms were used and the attendance was considerably larger than on previous occa- sions. The Drill Team again entertained, together with Trucy Pratt, the soloist of the evening. Major Melvin and Virginia Wilcox led the Grand March. Then gay ladies, gallant soldiers, honorable guests mingled together. Prcsaic but delicious punch, silver sabres, glittering uniforms, had their me ment. Then the members of the R.O.T.C. gathered in mysterious Chinatown, where a celestial repast ended a celestial evening. i ---2il192l3r 4193? .-mm Eva u -1 wnu- :5..,,,..w-.uxnuu-X . , , , 1 INDIA' LIFE 2 sr19s1QQ 19615 ,.,, Eg' 5 .

The trees were packed with birds, happy to be free on such a glorious day. The hum of the teacher's lecture grew fainter, came from a long distance, finally died away altogether. HF Pk ik if Pk Ik Sk lk It was a hot, dusty, road. I was not in a particularly good humor as I jolted along. My Ford, as though to taunt me, unerringly picked the deepest holes and densest beds of dust. At length I drew up in front of a small cottage dating from the pre- Revolutionary era. Leaving Elizabeth parked, I walked up the steps. Judging from the sounds that emanated from within, I decided that a family quarrel was in progress. After my vigorous knocking, the front door was opened by a belligerent dame. Tall she was, and spare as a pole-Mrs. Rip, without a doubt. In her eyes was the fierce light of victory. Politely I began. The Poly Optimist is featuring interviews with a number of internationally famous people. May I have the honor of asking a few questions of you and your husband? That calmed the lady a degree. After all these years her desire for publicity was not satiated. Entering the house, I observed Rip in a corner, idly putting Wolf through his tricks. Now, Rip, I began, without further hesitation, we want to know if Washing- ton Irving put down the truth when he wrote that you left your lovely wife here all alone for twenty years, while you loafed around with a lot of elves? Well, it was this way, began Rip reluctantly. By nature I am a peaceful, home- loving man. I never start quarrels. But my wife- It was bad enough to have her drive my friends out of the house, but when she took to pulling me out of bed after- noons, I just up and left home. I came back the next day, though, because I felt sorry for her. During this speech, Mrs. Rip had been sullenly quiet. Now she burst out much as an overinflated balloon explodes. That wretch has deliberately lied to you. True, I did order his cronies out more than once. I was tired of having them tracking my clean house with mud. And I did wake him up, IO o'clock in the morning it was. He came back because he was sorry for me? He was hungry, that's all. And what's more- Her speech was interrupted by Rip, who meekly ventured a few words in defense of himself. Mrs. Rip reached for a ladle, obviously to vent her spleen upon him. Not wishing to become involved in a casc of assault and battery, I eased myself slowly toward the door, and slipped out just as the storm broke in all its fury. Elizabeth was waiting and drove me back to the office in record time. Here I hastilv wrote out the experience. I was bursting with pride over this scoop when I --s5Il98jS+- i laid the manuscript on the editor's desk. e read it in silence, then turned to me and said in a steely voice, Wake up, you idiot! You've been dreaming. Someone was shaking my shoulder. Period's over. You'll be late. Yes, it was true. The halls of Poly were full of echoing footsteps. Mechanically I made my way out of the room as our teacher's voice continued, Remember, choose interesting subjects for your interviews, and allow nothing to stop you from your goal. 'S IRA SVVETT, 31. 1 ELECTION BOOSTS Round the end of January or near the close of June, The aspirants for office croon that old election tune. They are glad to meet you, though they may not know your name, But, I pat you and you pat me, is the old election game. The president pounds his gavel, the aud grows deathly still, Nominations now in order gives everyone a thrill. Things are said about the nominees we never knew before, They really should be playing harps upon the golden shore. Mr. President, booms Tommy Jones, I now will nominate Bill Smith for this oflice, as he is up-to-date. He plays upon the football team, in leadership stands high. In fact, I do not see the use for others to apply. Jack james presents his nominee, whose name is Jimmy Court. He stands high in scholarship, and tries out for every sport. He made the chess and checker team, the girls call him a dear. Jimmy Court is sure a winner, Bill Smith is nowhere near. Mr. President, I now present the name of Margot Dare Whose character's as charming as her baby face is fair. She plays upon the hockey team, and oh, how she can dance! So I ask you, fellow students, please give the girl a chance. For this office, Mr. President, the one I now propose Is a girl that all the teachers like, and everybody knows. A student deep and thoughtful, who avoids the giddy whirl. For the office Edna Sweetness is the one and only girl. The elections now are over, the semester's nearly done. The officers retiring think of all the battles won. They pass on the knowledge they have learned along the road To new wielders of the gavel. May it help them bear their load! -GORDON S.

Auditorium On December 6 the Annual California Street School benefit was sponsored by the Girls' League. The children gave us a most amusing program of Mother Goose char- acters. Dick Lindsay played a perfect Santa Claus. This was a most popular aud call. The Annual Herald Oratorical Contest was held in the Polytechnic auditorium in December. The general subject was The Defense of Modern Youth. As a new and unusual feature of entertainment the Girls' League presented a pro- gram composed entirely of skits January 8. Six of the most prominent Poly clubs par- ticipated in the event. They were the Girls' Choral Club, the Girls' Junior Glee, Scribblers', Outdoor, Gym, and Rifle Clubs. Among the novel ideas were a kitchen orchestra originated by the Choral Club and a court trial by the Scribblers. The Gym Club presented several lovely dances, and the Outdoor and Rifle Clubs enacted a slow motion baseball game and an episode in a mountain camp. The theme of the winning skit, given by the Girls' Junior Glee, was the ideal Poly girl. The Flying Fleet, the first cinema with sound effects to be shown in the Audi- torium, was presented by the Projectionists for the benefit of the Community Chest. The picture was presented the earlier part of last semester. January ninth eight girls and twelve boys were selected by a vote of the Senior A class for Ephebian nomination. At the end of the term the choice narrowed down to five, Bonnie Mae Smith, Florence Glassman, Bob Wickersham, Judson Pierce and Jack Luhring. The portrait of Mr. Dunn, Poly's beloved principal, was presented to the school by the combined classes of Summer ,Z9 and Winter '30, Friday, January 17. Lillian Vezzetti and Judson Pierce, representing their classes, voiced their appreciation of Mr. Dunn's splendid influence upon Polytechnic. Mr. Winterburn spoke on behalf of the faculty, expressing their appreciation of both the gift and Mr. Dunn. All agreed Mr. Mannheim had produced an inspiring likeness. The Poly R.O.T.C. honored its graduating members and orlicers with an Aud call January 18, at which the R.O.T.C. band and drill team furnished entertainment. Colonel Clark, head of the Los Angeles R.O.T.C., and Mr. Dunn spoke, commending the military training. r-QEJZO 8JQ+- I 1 1 Auditorium Fred Rodriguez and Dot Risk were elected to lead Poly during Summer Thirty. The other cabinet oflicers were Elizabeth Morley, secretary, Arthur Erickson, president Board of Finance, Harry Kaplan, Ionian, Grover Taylor, Boys' League, Helen Dietrich, Girls' League, Al Goodman, Boys' Self Government, Jack Wykoff, Pub- licity, and Harriette Dern, publications. Winter '30 Class Night,January 19, featured Captain Applejack, a thrilling pirate- plunder drama. Bartley Bennet took the leading role of Ambrose Applejohn, who craved romance, love, and despeiate ventures. Lily Colvin, who played Poppy Faire, his undiscovered love, Virginia Hammer as Anna Valeska, the fascinating Russian adventuressg and a large minor cast supported him well. Miss Lewis produced a splendid play. Judson Pierce presented the class gift. Finders Keepers and the Trysting Place, two dramatic achievements, were presented by the Mask and Sandal Club. Finders Keepers was an enjoyable play in which Elmer Moxley, Virginia Torrance, and Margaret Atkinson starred. The Tryst- ing Place added the spice ofhumor to the program. Polytechnic students were indeed fortunate to hear Dr. Fredrick Warde, noted Shakespearean actor, give several well-chosen selections from the great playwright. His reading makes Shakespeare human and enthralling. In addition to interpretations and characterizations of such well-known characters as Macbeth and Portia, Dr. Warde repeated one of his own poems. The Scholarship Society presented a very successful and inspiring program on May 15. Dr. Remsen Bird of Occidental College was the speaker of the day. His topic was The Undone Vast. His message was that an undiscovered field lies open to the youth of today who wish to explore it. Other features of the program were musical numbers presented by members of the Scholarship Society. Isadore Weinper, violinist, and Truman Welch, organist, gave several excellent musical selections. Selected mem- bers of the Girls' Senior Glee offered several lovely vocal numbers. Twelve members of the Class of S'3o were also presented with C.S.F. pins by our vice-principal, Mr. Goodsell. Youthful orators spoke on Law and Its Obedience on May zo at the fourth an- nual Magee Oratorical Contest, sponsored by the Filipino Club. Jerome Weber won the cup for the Mask and Sandal Club. In the installation of odicers and presentation of Athletic Awards the school paid sincere tribute to our representatives in government and athletics. This was the last assembly of the term. -420913+- f'The Golden Trail Adventures of Pioneers of '49 CAST OF CHARACTERS Don Carlos Alvarado, Widower and owner of a large ranch estate .

Before this picturesque background, in quick dramatic succession, move colorful, contrast- ing groups of gay rancheros, rough miners, stealthy bandits, sturdy emigrants, courtly Spaniards, and dare-devil vaqueros. Great treasures, storied gems, quantities of gold are the motif of action. These were the elements of The Golden Trail, the musical comedy presented by the combined Senior Glee Clubs, assisted by the Junior Glee and Choral Clubs, the orchestra, dancing groups from the girls' gym, and other talented students. Three acts of rapid action, interspersed with flashes of boisterous comedy, suited to the stirring times, sped along in seemingly unhurried style. Indeed, the rapid sequence of the choruses and the smooth transition from one group to another were most re- markable. Unstinted praise is due the directors and those in the cast. The enthusiastic leadership of Mrs. Gertrude Parsons, general director of the opera, was a particular source of its success. Mrs. Parsons was aided by an untiring staff. Miss Hope Wells, the assistant director, was a quiet, cheerful, and constructive force, Miss Ruth Phillips, dramatic coach, produced an unusual unity of effect, Miss Julia Smith, costume manager, skillfully harmonized and contrasted the many groups and individuals. Mr. George Nelson, orchestral director, was responsible for the fine in- strumental accompaniments. The Stage Crew, Mr. George Winterburn in charge, devised the realistic scenery and the effective lighting schemes. Mr. Charles Wakefield Cadman, composer of The Golden Trail, was present at both performances and directed the orchestra during the closing act. In speaking to the audiences, he highly praised the performance of the cast and the skillful direction of Mrs. Parsons. His theory that light opera should be especially written for high school groups and voices was most successfully proved by this production of his opera. The hearty applause of the audiences was but one instance of the enthusiastic re- ception of this finished performance. The Golden Trail continues the long and brilliant line of successful operas by the music department.

And the rain fell from the leaden sky upon her still form. Before her he stood, his head bowed, and his heart filled with consuming anguish. Slowly he stooped and touched her with his linger tips. No more did he hear her gently murmuring. He had killed her-her who had toiled for him, and helped him through so many hard passages, had he killed. The muddy, deserted road lay before him, and the rain fell upon them. With a shuddering sigh, Dick Lindsay slammed down the hood and began to crank the engine, hoping he could start her.

DAN S'rEvENsoN -eij2l7l?+ Laud from the Aud Mistress Dorothy Risk, our prexy in the vice, She of the lingo brisk, is known to be quite nice. One hears no cavil as she pounds the gavel. She'll always unravel both great and small travail. In tones not flat, Sir Trucy Pratt is always singing this or that. With clever guile and friendly smile, he's sure to manage many a mile. Mr. Ivey, first name Holly, also is an Aye of Poly. He's a fellow who, though jolly, rarely gives free rein to folly. At the piano sits Pat Horgan, Iris Sievwright at the organ, Often seen with page and pen are Mademoiselles Fowlston and Fenng Thelma Cox, Sylvia Davis, Nora Knox, Louise Chavis, Miriam Keiffer, and Dotty Danner all behave in fit Aye manner- Summer Thirty maidens now, take your place and make a bow!

Edward Berger holds the class until it is excused to pass. Many others win applause for why and wherefore and because. Green and white our colors stand, setting forth our noble brand- The Senior Ayes are proud to be the class of the Silver Jubilee. SYMPHONY Confidently, he sat down at the piano. How serene he looked! He was a bit fright- ened. His fingers wandered idly over the keys as if he were on some far off island, listening to the soft plaintive melodies of the natives. Suddenly he became more tense. The chords broke like thunder. His hands flashed over the keyboard. He played so heavily that the vases practically rattled where they stood. His listeners were entranced by his artistry. The music became softer again, and it took a dulcet tone. Again he was lost in a sweet-flowing melody that fairlv took away one's breath, it was so lovely. With a crash of chords he began what seemed to be a majestic overture. One could just see the soldiers marching across the battle-scarred field, hear the boom of cannons as his hands moved up and down the black and white-striped keyboard. A lighter, more tinkling melody developed to take away all tension before going into the finale, a pompous march up and down the keys. Slowly Frank Pierce arose from the piano. All right, Mrs. Jones, he said, your piano is in tune now. 1-QSIZ 1 813 The Poly Print Shop A wonderful machine, isn't it? This to me as I watch the Monotype caster at work. The jumbled mass of rapidly moving machinery fills the print shop with a whirr and clatter as it casts a gleaming row of type out on a long galley. The quick movement ofeach tiny part harmonizes with the rumble of the press, the thump of the paper cutter, and the whine of the saw. The uncanny precision of the fascinating mechanism is more than human. Its smooth operation has a beautiful rhythm: Clack, Bump, Clack, Bump, Clack, Bump, Clang-Click! Something wrong. A touch from the operator sends it on its way until suddenly Swish! Bang! above the din. A loud crash and bright bits of metal scatter over the ink-stained floor. What's that? Mr. Pearson stops all work with his short question. I happened to lean against that galley of Annual type over there, andivvell, it slipped. Will you kids never learn not to lean on things in the print shop? What's the mat- ter with you? Don't you get enough sleep at home? Find the ribbon for that galley and run it over. The ink-smeared culprit kneels on the floor and gathers up the remains of his care- lessness. Hey, what are you doing under the press, fellow? Believe it or not, I'm shooting buffalosf' Well, you get to work and fix the measure on the Lino. Hurry it up. A twist ofthe wrist and the Linotype sounds its tinkle in the print shop music. Art, on his high perch, calmly surveys the confusion as he feeds the sheets of paper with a flip, flop into the rumbling press. And so the day grows merrily warmer in the Poly print shop. -PETER LANG, S'3o MUSIN GS OF AN ALUMNUS, TEN YEARS AFTER I'll never forget that first day I went to Poly . . . the multitude of people!

Their cooperation and ready assistance in all matters made the responsibility of preparing an annual an unusually easy one. The staff was composed of students particularly familiar with Polytechnic and her students. They have sought in their respective departments to reproduce scenes which will be symbolical of Polytechnic. They have fulfilled the purpose of a true annual, to produce a record of school events, by picture and word. To insure the success of an undertaking such as this book, there must always be competent advisers ready to give capable assistance to the editors. To Miss Metkiff, Miss Kjelland, Mr. Pearson and Mr. Ives, the editor now extends his sincere appreci- ation for help rendered in their respective departments. He also thanks all others who professionally aided to make this book an artistic and commercial success. The editor wishes to thank personally the individual members of the staff who worked to complete the Annual. He is particularly greatful to Virginia Fenn for her aid in the capacity of assistant editor. She stood ready at all times to promote success in every detail. The business staff, including Albert Ashjian, John Gibbs, Robert Vignolo, Truman Welch, and James Allman, was most efficient. Under their fine supervision sales, collections, and appointments were made easy. Albert Ashjian and James Allman took charge of the advertising with marked success. The art staff, supervised by Lee Blair, created the illustrations, cut, pasted, and placed the pictures, and are responsible for all art arrangements. This group of students was a constant solace to the editor because they were ready and willing to cooperate in every way. Besides Lee Blair, the staff included Ruth Plumley, Eleanor Wright, Charles Lacarra, Lulu Simpson, William Higgins, Vivian Short, Clella Belle Maxham, and Marion Mathews. Wilbur Grubb, Dario Robinson, and Edith Burke comprised the sport staff, and their good spirit and work could always be relied on. Ralph Troxel, editor of Humor, carried his work to completion with his customary smile. The class editors, Bonnie Mae Smith and Helen Maky, were on hand for all emergencies. Francis Ross as literary editor was always ready with novel ideas. Hal von Breton arranged the R.O.T.C., Calendar, and Auditorium sections. His fine work reflects the spirit of his efforts. Harriette Dern was a most able Organizations editor besides helping in many other ways. Jean Bath spent time generously in statistical work and responded to every need. John Brewer and Bertrand Morris were ever willing photographers. To Arthur Danner, who did much of the press work, the editor extends hearty thanks for cooperation and aid. He was at all times an invaluable friend, most patient with a nervous editor. -THE EDITOR -fill-lOl? .I ..,. .. Advertisers ADAMS-GOODMAN CO., Inc. . ADOHR DAIRY . . . B. H.DYAS CO. , . BOYD H.
