With more adequate financing than in previous years, it has been possible to alter the book in several ways. As Riverside Junior College continues to grow, it will be possible to pro- duce an even better book, one more expensive and larger but in no way more representative of the school life than the first publication. ftw Ki ' i r«-i?io Htf -?

Mechanically sum- marizing activities occuring during this first two year period of higher education we surprise ourselves by the total accomplishments, and straightway voice the customary class boast. In all activities the class of ' •iH has shown its outstanding ability. In the field of athletics the women as well as the men have excelled. A decidedly new trend was introduced in the women ' s dancing organization, by the staging of a dance recital. The social functions of the class are long to be remembered. A well received affair was the annual Sophie-Freshie, calling to mind the pirate days of long ago. Several functions were carried out together with the Freshman class. Perhaps the most enjoyable of these were the Mixers, one held each year. A unique Leap Year party was held with the men as guests of the women. Toward the close of each year a farewell dinner dance was given by the Freshmen in honor of the grad- uating class. However, we find that pleasure alone has not been the sole aim of our class. Much sincere studying has been done which is evidenced by the honor roll. w«ss $ fK , , .■v ' .?;v«Vrfr.v.-.- ««.iS DOROTHY ADAMS General course; class social chr. 2; vice pres. W. A.

Entering the school with little idea of college activities, they soon learned and rapidly stepped forward into the front ranks. Freshman success was evidenced in all branches of school activities. In debate the class supplied all four members of the varsity squad which was so successful in inter-collegiate debates. These under classmen met defeat only once during the entile season. Great things are expected of this quartet next year. On the athletic field Freshmen have stood out in ever branch of sports. Fresh- men held places on ever varsity team at the college: many shone as individual stars. In interclass athletics the lower class members excelled especially. Sopho- mores garr.eied only one point against the well-balanced Freshmen team. Social functions of the college were well supported by members of the class. During the second quarter the Freshmen were guests of the Sophomores at the annual Sophie-Freshie, held at the Woman ' s Club House. On May 4, the Freshie- Sophie was given by the Freshmen with the Sophomores as guests. To raise money for tiiis fuention a benefit theatre party was held by the lower classmen in cooperation with the Rubidoux Theatre.

And yet it is not all pleasure, for hereafter I shall be out of it when the Coops plan some fun. You see. Helen, they do such lovely things and take such nice trips. I know that I ' ll miss it all very much. We went to La Jolla, Lake Arrowhead, and Pasa- dena this last year, thus visiting the beach, the mountains, and the city. I he other groups, our alternates, went to Long Beach and to Painted Canyon. Our parties and dinners have been loads of fun this time. I ' ve had a very full senior year for a hard-working nurse, but really I can ' t think of a thing I ' d like to do more than to be with the Coops! Sincerely, Ima Coop. -I 32 |- .— !

Rod shape; chain formation indicates lack of disection. 2. Occur in groups much as the herds of college students at a pay assembly. 3. Motility — very motile when called upon to forget answers to questions. CULTURAL CHARACTERISTICS: 1. Grows and thrives at motion pictures and dances, but dies out with the ' use of midnight oil. 2. Grows best in stagnant brain Media. PATHOGENICITY: There is great fatality during exams. The organism is very hard to isolate in pure culture. It is easily transmitted to other human beings through contact on sunny spring days. Unlike other pathogenic organisms, sunshine will not kill, but will aid growth organism. Experimentally it has never been transmitted to experimental animals, such as monkeys, kangaroos, guineas, pigs, rabbits, and white mice. The following experiment has been conducted in R. J. C. Bacteriology under the direction of B. J. DuBeau with the aid of Glen Campbell, Marion Small, and Audine Lawrence. The organism was taken from the blood of R. Patton, and was innoculated in all experimental animals with negative results. However, when human subjects were attempted many students had offered themselves for the aid of medical science. Successful experiments were conducted on Wade Cook, Joe O ' Connor, Rupe Costo; in each case such typical symptoms as the following were noted: 1. Forgetting o come to class when parked on front entrance. 2. Preparing lessons in the last ten minutes of study period. 3. Always coming to class late. rjc — MY MECCA Painted Canyon is my Mecca; I cannot escape it. It maketh me to lie down upon the hard sand all night; it leadeth me beside the dry stream beds, it re- storeth my hair to its natural straightness; it guideth me up the paths to Coop Peak for tradition ' s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the Ocotillas, I should fear no Cacti; for my boots are heavy; thy rocks and thy smoke bushes, they fascinate me. Thou preparest a panorama of beauty before me in the presence of the mosquitoes; thou hast anointed my brow with perspiration; my collar wilteth. Surely the color and lure of the desert shall follow me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the spell of thy beauty forever. Bernece Schofield 37 1- The reason why I never lie. But tell the truth instead. One doesn ' t have to work so hard To think what one has said. — rjc — E. Keifer — Was the dance a success? E. Berry — Oh, yes, roughly speaking. RJC Dr. — I don ' t like your heart action, and you ' ve had some trouble with Agina Pectoris. ( ' . Stalder — You ' re partly right. Doc, but that isn ' t the young lady ' s name. rjc Chet ( larlson — It would he might dull for you girls if all the men would suddenly die! Marjorie Carr — Oh, I don ' t know! We would still have you college boys left. r J ( ' H. H. Bliss — Do you know why I flunked you? Me I haven ' t an idea. H. H. Bliss— Right. Mr. Richards — Do you have to work long hours? No, only the regulation length, sixty minutes each. rjc Dr. Eggleston — What are you thinking about? Geology Ike — How did you know I was thinking? Dr. Eggleston — I saw an unusual expression on your face. rjc - — My wife has been using a flesh-reducing roller for nearly two months. And can you see the result yet? Yes, the roller is much thinner now. rjc A shy little she said shoo To a fly and a flea in a flue. Said the flea, Let us fly. Said the fly, Let us flee. So they flew through a flaw in the flue. rjc Women ' s faults are many Men have only two-- Everything they say, and Everything they do. -I 38 ]- ASSOCIATED STUDENT BODY MEMBERS OF THE BOARD President — Robert Patton Vice President — Marie Von Kanel Secretary — Edith Coffin Treasurer — Clifford Dudley Social Chairman — Charlotte Kendrick Athletic Manager — Robert Hartwell Assistant Athletic Mgr. — Robert Hartwell Yell Leader — Howard Crise Editor (Arroyo) — Robert Ruskauff Editor (Tequesquite) — Elma Forney President A. W. S. — Genevieve Cree President W. A. A. — Dorothy Osborne Debating Manager — Perry Ellis This year the Board has directed the school in several important business matters. The football rally, the Mixer and a dinner-dance at the Woman ' s Club started a very successful season. A decidedly new feature in the way of activities was an exchange of assemblies among Southern California junior colleges. This plan proved to be quite successful and probably will be continued next year. Field day had an interest for all, the morning being taken up by a girls ' basket- ball game and boys ' swimming meets, and the afternoon by an interchips track and field meet. Lunch was served by the girls in the Arroyo. A much approved of event was a school dance given for San Bernardino and Riverside after the championship game, which won our team gold basketball awards. Much success was achieved in track and baseball also, the track men receiving gold awards. Ditch Day which was held at Balboa, proved to be one of the outstanding events of the year for Junior College. All assemblies and events were exceptionally well attended and great interest shown, making this year one that will be long re- membered by every student. -I 41 ' FACULTY mil Faculty activities this year have been characterized by wider and more vaner interests outside of college and by a busy social organization. Three new members have been added to the faculty this year: Miss Bertha Du- heau of Berkeley, teacher of bacteriology, epidemiology and chemistry; Miss Cecile McAlister of Eugene, Oregon, Acting Dean of Women; and Mr. William Neufeld of Berkeley, director of Junior College athletics. The Faculty social season was opened with a reception and musicale at the Mission Inn on September 27, which was followed by a dinner and party at the Y. M. C. A. in the fall, a dinner at Sherman Institute in February, and the final party of the season in May. A new custom, that of serving faculty teas, lias been instituted this year by the combined faculties of the Junior College and High School. Two of these teas have already been given at the High School. Faculty members have been active this year as speakers at club and business organization affairs in Riverside and other cities and in attendance at educational and fraternal conventions in California and elsewhere. They have also played a prominent part in community affairs, and through the publications bureau, have continued publishing original research material. • •■ ' ; - ' ,.,-.

Launched in l(j25 by school leaders, sponsored by the Riverside Lions Club, this club was pioneer venturer into the field of service. Several activities have come to be a part of the Junior Lion curriculum, and have been performed as a club privilege and duty. Included in work accomplished during the year has been the guidance of traffic on Mt. Rubidoux Easter Sunday, giving a Christmas party to poor kiddies of the city, presentation of a service cup to the most valuable man and woman in the college. In social achievements, the club held Ladies night. Mothers night, and Fathers night. Club meetings were held each Tuesday evening, with a lively program planned for each time. ;;iiS:S ; ' SSSfcWw GIRL ' S GLEE CLUB The College Glee Club this year completed an extraordinarily complete term which was marked by several outstanding successes. The first production was the cantata The Legend of Don Munio in which the Community Chorus and High School (dec Clubs took part. Assistance was given to the main choruses of the High School production The Belle of Barcelona. Several assembly pro- grams were presented at a later date. The first triumph of the year came with the presentation of The Chimes of Normandy in the patio of the Junior College campus. This light opera, which was staged for the benefit of the Kiwanis Scholarship Fund, brought out some exceptionally fine chorus work and also displayed the individual talent of the organization. Jessie Stebler. with her pleasing soprano voice, was well backed by a finely bal- anced group. Under the capable handling of Ii. Norman Spohr, the organization toured the county during the last quarter, thus rounding out a well-filled year. -[ 44 ]- MENS GLEE CLUB The present year has proved a very successful one for the men ' s glee club. The enrollment was good, and keen interest has been shown. In addition to the bi- weekly meetings, the Club has met with the Community Chorus on Monday evenings. A number of successful programs were given by the organization during the year. These included appearances before the Junior College and High School student bodies. The Present Day Club, and The Republican Women ' s County Conference. With the presentation of Don Munio, the cantata by Dudley Buck, this organiza- tion helped to put on one of the finest programs of the year. In the spring the club made a tour of nearby towns, helping to arouse interest in the college, and were very favorably received. The light opera, The Chimes of Normandy, was presented in the latter part of May. Both the men ' s and women ' s glee clubs and the Community Chorus co- operated in making the program a success. Eugene Tucker and Alec Hammond carried two of the male leads very favorably. The rest of the cast was well chosen, and the program brought the year ' s activities to a successful close. 45 R. O. T. C. This year, for the first time since the establishment of the R. 0. T. C. in River- side, the Junior College cadets have been trained as a unit entirely separate from that of the high school. A distinctive type of uniform was adopted, and a new programme of training introduced. This included a basic course in Field Engineering and Tactics, and work in map reading and sketching. Several field problems were fired on the range, and battle tactics and trench construction studied and repro- duced on the sand-table. This work was handled by Sergeant Laidlaw, of the U. S. Army, who has given this course in several other schools, and has had actual experience with the problem of warfare. A short course in Aeronautics was also introduced. Under the able leadership of Lieutenant Mil ford Parker, of the High School faculty, very interesting instruc- tion covering the essentials of the subject was given, including several lessons in actual flying. On the whole, the training programme was very successfully carried out and the training given very much enjoyed by the cadets of the unit. Captain Norman Dewes. 40 Y. W. C. A.

Besides the regular monthly suppers, afternoon discussion groups have been held. These meetings have been an ad- ditional feature in the year ' s work. Under the guidance of the chairmen and their committees, a number of excellent, speakers were heard. Among them Miss Cecile McAlister, Miss Betty Cooper, Miss Yoneko Anderson. Miss Thompson and Miss Helen Price of Los Angeles. The Y sent four delegates to the National Conference which was held at Sacramento in April and delegates to Asilomar summer camp. Lois J. Horne, Sec. 47 - J LETTERMAN ' S CLUB President — Glen Campbell Vice-President — Heston Pierce Secretary-Treasurer — Karl Kelsy The past school year has been successful in placing the Letterman ' s Club, which heretofore has existed merely in name, among the active college organizations. Membership of the group consists of all those who have made their letter in a major sport . The primary purpose of the club is to maintain the organization of the letterman as a social body, and to promote athletics in the college. The kind and size of R to he worn by the members is decided by the organization. Management of the ticket sale for the Southern California Junior College Con- ference vs. Los Angeles Athletic Club track meet, which was held on the River- side Stadium, was the greatest bit of service rendered by the Letterman ' s Club. Half of the proceeds was paid to the Los Angeles Athletic Club. Part of the remainder was used to send a track team to the West Coast Relays at Fresno, while the rest was turned over to the student body. IS - .... -V ' , J :, tf:sV Ay,;-,,.

The Arroyo. Enlarged to a paper of five columns, published Fridays on the campus. The Arroyo this year saw its greatest period of growth in school history. Certain difficulties made if unfeasable to keep up the weekly publication of the sheet, but it appeared consistently the first quarter, with several feature numbers edited. This paper IS a charter member of the Southern California Associated News Feder- ation and has proved an effective news organ of the college. Three aside-from- the-ordinary issues have been produced, including an issue of The Cutter, annual razz sheet, a Goop students issue and a special ten page Christmas edition. The efficient staff which has worked with editor Bob Ruskauff to make the paper among the best in the conference includes Raymond Allen, advertising manager and Garr Gibson assistant, John Oilmen business manager, Dick Raynor telegraph editor, Stewart Dodds, Grace Randall, John Clarke, Marie Von Kanel, John Burr, Jessie Clark, Perry Ellis, Winifred Membery and Tom North reporters. M) A. W. S. President — Genevieve Ckee Vice President — Eleanor Smith Secretary — Lois Patterson Treasurer — Onita Gladden Social Chairman — Margaret Wherry The Associated Women Students of Riverside Junior College have tried this year to foster a spirit of friendliness among the women of the college ' and to support school activities. Early in the year the organization had charge of one of the school assemblies, and also helped to make Field Day a success by preparing the lunch. The Associa ted Women Students cooperate with the college T. W ( ' . A. in the management of the Tiger ' s Den. They also have charge of the cottage which is maintained for the use of the college women. An interesting affair of the Christ- mas season was a birthday party for the cottage. Each guest brought some useful gift. Several members of the A. W. S. attended an inspiring convention of Women students held in Redlands in November. An event long to lie remembered was the Lea]) Year Party sponsored by the women. The women students conducted a successful tag day. to help in some of the welfare work of the city, and also gave a tea for their mothers during Mother ' s Day week. 50 DEBATE Riverside Junior College had a fairly successful debating season, losing the championship of the Inland League to Citrus. As the team was composed entirely of Freshmen, the prospects for a championship team next year are very bright. In the first Conference debates of the year, on December 2nd, John Gabbert and Perry Ellis defeated San Bernardino J. C. by a score of 3 to at Berdoo. Pomona forfeited to Riverside . ' 5 to 0. The end of the first round debate found Riverside tied with Citrus for first place in the Inland League. On January 26th, Judson Waugh and John Gabbert defeated the Redlands University Frosh 1 to at Redlands. A critic judge gave the decision. Next morn- ing at Riverside, Thomas North and Perry Ellis defeated another team of the Redlands Frosh by a score of . ' } to 0. In the second round of Conference debates, on the 1st and 2nd of March, Thomas North and Perry Ellis were defeated by Citrus 2 to 1 at Riverside; John Gabbert and Judson Waugh defeated Chaffey . ' ? to at Chaffey. In the Redlands Frosh and second Conference debates, the Oregon Plan was used. Both the teams and the audience enjoyed the change, and it will probably be used in future years. The question, which was debated in every debate, was: Resolved, That a nation with a superior civilization is justified in forcing its civilization upon an inferior people. -r ;i i- NOT HERBERT Not Herbert, a delightful four-act mystery comedy was presented January 27 as tlie feature dramatic production of the year. The plot centers around Herbert Alden, a character excellently portrayed by John Clarke. Herbert is known to his family and immediate friends as a quiet, bashful hook worm, but to a certain ring of safe-crackers, he is The Corporal. His main assistant in crime and in- nocence in his rather correct English valet, Fletcher, played by Hen McElroy. Herbert ' s other accomplices in jewel robberies are Polly, played by Charlotte Kendrick, and George, played by Chester Wilson. Ruth Webster, Herbert ' s sweetheart, as portrayed by Elma Forney, stays by him through all his difficulties and aids him in escaping the police. Cynthia, Her- bert ' s vivacious flapper sister, played by Margaret Marshall, is engaged to be mar- ried to Tracy Sutton who, in attempting to become affiliated with Herbert, The Corporal, is exposed by Herbert, the book worm. The part of Sutton was taken by Don Collins. Barbara Hammond appeared as a young society matron in whose home an important part of the plot action takes place. Fanshaw, the blustering, would-be-efficient detective whose ambition is to identify and capture The Corporal, was played by Mob Patton, and lus assistant officer was Harold Tim- mons. The parents of Herbert were enacted by Helen Conklin and Dick Raynor, K0 1_ DANCE RECITAL The natural dancing class under the direction of Mrs. C. S. Huntley presented a new form of entertainment in the form of a Dance Recital given March f in the Poly Auditorium for the benefit of the Women ' s Athletic Association. The program was divided into two main parts, the first being devoted to folk and character dances, and the second to natural dance rhythms. Interspersed be- tween the numbers were musical selections and readings. Among the novelty numbers were couple dances given by Jocelyn Kelley and Lois Patterson, and Lima Forney and Marion Small, a Japanese dance by Yoshi Okubo, and a scarf dance by Barbara Hammond. Other dances included a minuet, a Russian dance, and several impressionistic natural dances such as Balloon Dance and Frieze. The dances in themselves were delightful, but their charm was greatly enhanced by lighting effects and colorful costuming. The program showed not only ability and grace on the part of the participants, but also a finess and orderliness due to skillful training. 53 1— J - FATE Are you hurt? questioned an anxious masculine voice and the speaker bent over the figure on the pavement. Well, this isn ' t my funeral, if that ' s what you mean. But I have felt better, was the flippant reply. I am very sorry and I assure you it was done not intentionally, he went on and then stopped as if waiting for an answer. Do I look like a man that would deliberately knock a girl down? he said, glaring at her angrily. Not exactly, but I ' m not sure if — Anyway I can ' t imagine why a girl your size would buy twenty pounds of oranges at once. Yes, and if you were a gentleman you would stop talking and pick them up. Besides there are only six pounds. T would rather pick you up first. Those people over there are looking at me as though I was some terrible monster. Maybe you are. But I would rather you would pick up my oranges first. Alright! Just a minute! and he commenced to collect the scattered fruit and place them in the torn sack. You would make a fine salesman. You put all the little ones on the bottom, she began encouragingly. I ' m very sorry if you don ' t like it, placing the last orange in the bag. Do you wish me to repeat my work under your supervision? Oh, no. I was just observing. You know it ' s always well to observe. Perhaps it would be well if you practised observation when turning a corner. Now let me help you up. I was just going to suggest that you should observe more, too, she said, paying no heed to his proffered hand. What do you teach? You are a teacher aren ' t you? she said, glancing at his brief case. Oh you wouldn ' t understand. Now for the last time, may I help you up? and suiting his speech he placed a gentle hand on her elbow. Don ' t yell so loud. Some one will think I ' m hurting you. Well, you are. How can you knock a girl down, grab her sore elbow and — But I didn ' t do it on purpose, he said impatiently. Hey taxi! and he waved his hand frantically at a passing cab. You know. she began gazing at him intently, you remind me of the shiek Poly Si teacher my cousin Bab is forever raving about. Are you? I ' m not acquainted with the young lady. Now is there any other question you wish to discuss before I help you up? You must be. She says he is awful sarcastic. Do vou teach political science? Yes. And your name. Anthonv Howard Uoothe Cooke. am ' « miM!$$ .56 You ' re t he same. Whew, I guess I could stand it. Well, I ' ve stood it for twenty-five years and I ' ve found it a pretty good name. I didn ' t say it wasn ' t. What did you say you guessed you could stand it, for? Nothing, only it ' s hard to even think about a new name like that. Never mind, call me by any of the four. I shall not be there to hear. Oh! Is that man waving at us? Yes, he is the taxi driver. Our taxi? No, your taxi. Oh! Now don ' t you think this is much nicer than picking me up by my elbow, and she settled comfortably in his arms. I didn ' t intend to carry you by your elbow ! H — ! you ' re the most exasperating. It isn ' t nice for a college professor to use such language. It sets a bad example. Yes, yes, placing her in the taxi. What is your telephone number? he questioned as the taxi began to move away. I ' d rather give you my address. That would be much nicer. Here, and she threw a card to him. He looked after the retreating cab. Then grinned and said I believe it would be very much nicer.

Eloise Rogers -[ 57 ]- „,4K BIRD ROCK Bird Rock was the only thing that broke the smooth coast line. The other cliffs which bordered the sea, sloped gently down to the water ' s edge and spread into a long sandy beach. But Bird Rock jutted boldly out into the high waves forcing them to separate and form angry swirling pools around it ; and the rock also annoyed the fishermen, for they were forced to break their straight courses, and widely circle the point. Bird Rock seemed to delight in its dominant position; for that drab, cumbersome projection flashed back an unsmiling stare, when its dangerous and overwhelming whirlpools were pitilessly illuminated in the bright light of day. Yet upon a night of misty fragrance, a night made more lovely by the drowsy splashing of the low tide waves. Bird Rock was beautiful The moonlight had dimmed with its glamour that ugly and obtrusive look. The great cloud of black- ness had gathered a hovering shadow around it, and appeared to stare pensively at its own reflection. Its sameness was broken by the scattered rays of the moon as they were caught in the pools of dew and spray. In the late night the whole coast seemed to belong to Bird Rock; a tower of fantastic shadows, that had bravely held its place against the vastness of the sea.

Brandeis ■ TK teKiS-; .. wmm 00Bim w ■■ ' ■•■ ROMEO AND JULIET It all started when Julie met that guy Romeo at the Sigma prom. Not that it was anything unusual for her to fall for some fellow ' s endearing young charms. But this time it was worse than usual. I know. Room-mates know everything. You see, it was two nights before the big Cal-Stanford game, and everyone was too gowed to know that this Romeo Montague was a Cal man, let alone the son of the president of that institution and left end on the team. If the news had got around he never would have left the place in one piece. And if good old Dr. Ca- pulet had known it he would have stepped out of his role as president of Stanford and would have devoted his energies to chastizing his wayward daughter. But. he didn ' t know it, and the reason he didn ' t do much researching was probably because he didn ' t see them. Julie saw to that. She and her foreign boy friend spent the evening and half the night in a corner of the roof garden. Well the next thing Julie did was to kick every male photograph under her dress- ing table. Then she announced that she thought she ' d marry Romeo. I didn ' t think much about it at the time but when she cut all her classes and went without lunch the next day, I decided she must be in love. And sure enough that night there was a whistle outside the window and Julie powdered her nose and hopped out on the fire-escape. The scene that followed was most touching and maybe that man didn ' t have a line. He started saying something about over-perching the garden wall on Love ' s wings. I felt like telling him he ' d need his wings if the house-mother heard him out there, but I felt that it wasn ' t my place. All this time I was hiding behind the curtain. But I didn ' t hear everything even at that, for when he started to calling her a fair sun, a twinkling star, and a bright angel, things got too ethereal for me and I kind of swooned away, as it were. But I got most of the important parts. It seemed that if he wouldn ' t run the risk of losing his inheritance by marrying into the Stanford ranks, she would stick a golden bear on her windshield for him. I don ' t know which college won, but anyway they decided to get married. Then Romeo remembered the three day marriage license law, and threw cold water over every- thing. My interest was picking up all along and by that time I was tying knots in the curtain. Then, to my great relief, Julie saved the day. I ' ve an idea, she whispered, leaning over the fire escape. Why not try com- panionate marriage? We wouldn ' t need the three day warning then. Ah, my sweet, sighed Romeo. You have the brains of the family. I ' ll wire Denver tonight, and ask Ben to write us out a two-year contract. Hot dog, said Julie. I ' ll see you at the game tomorrow. Well, the next day Julie insisted that we go down to the stadium early so that we could sit in the front row. Everybody was all afiurry and much aflutter by the time the game was ready to start. And when the California team ran on the field, what did Romeo do but see Julie sitting up there in the front row. So, very casual-like, he jumped the fence, walked up to Julie, handed her a telegram, and before the Stanford rooting section had a chance to hop on him and kill him, he was back on the field. I pulled the telegram out of the envelope and read it to Julie. O. K. Stop. You ' re man and wife. Stop. Hold this as receipt. Stop. Will mail contract tomorrow. Stop. Blessings. — Ben Lindsey. H-m-m, I said, counting carefully, Fourteen words. He must have sent it ( ' . (). 1). He wouldn ' t pay for the (). K. and the blessings himself. But Julie was just sitting there kind of limp, with a look of bliss on her face. The first quarter of the game was the most exciting. It is not quite clear to me just what happened, but it seems that Romeo, fired with a newborn enthus-asm and fighting spirit, tackled Stanford ' s number 22 around the neck, and when he finally got the ball away from him, the poor guy was lying out flat on his back. Time out, yelled the referee. Stanford man killed! Stanford man! Rah! Rah 1 Rah! Stanford man yelled the California rooting section; and then in louder tones: What do we think of Romeo? SOME BOY! It ' s too bad, yelled the referee through his megaphone, but Montague is out on fouls and murder. Send in your sub. Lynch him, howled the Stanford rooting section. No, shouted the referee, we mustn ' t do that. It ' s unconstitutional. After the game, benches were lined up in the middle of the stadium, anil the student councils of the two schools took their places. Juliet was weeping unre- served 1 v. ' Poor girl, said Dr. Capulet. She thought so much of Tyl And then for him to be cut off in the flower of manhood by that fiend Each Council member expressed an opinion as t the fate of Romeo, and between speeches the rooting sections yelled, We want justice! We want justice! Try and get it, said the referee. Now if you will all be quiet, we will give young Montague a choice in regard to his punishment. Romeo, you may choose between death and banishment to San Bernardino Junior College Death, said Romeo, without flinching. The sentence has been decided on, announced the referee. He wi ed to Berdoo J. C. Banished! Romeo wrung his hands. Banished! Th in Hell. Howlings attend it. For gosh sake, have a heart ' Naughty, naughty, said the referee. The Stanford team suddenly remembered that it had won the game; and soon all Stanford was serpentining around the stadium, and all California was boarding e banish- damned use that word 60 ' the ferry. It was pretty hard for Julie to lose her husband so soon; and then, to make matters worse, who should call at the sorority house that night hut her father. My daughter, said Dr. Capulet, I know that you feel badly about poor Tybalt, but stop bawling for a while. I have good news for you. I have decided that you shall marry Peter Paris Thursday morning. Peter Paris, shrieked Juliet. Why, I ' d rather marry that Romeo fiend! That ' s enough of your nonsense, Julie. I hate to inconvenience you, my clear, but really if you don ' t marry Peter I ' ll have to kick you out. And that ' s that. Well, when Dr. Capulet left, Julie broke down again, and I had to continue my consolations. Then I had an inspiration. Why not go to Dr. Plankman. He had not taught Logic for ten years without having some kind of a head on him. He ought to be able to find a way out. So Julie dried her eyes, anil the next day we cut English and called on Dr. Plankman. First, we made him promise he would not tell anyone, then Julie told him the whole story. You see. she concluded, if I marry Peter Paris I ' ll be a bigamist, and if I tell Dad that I married Romeo, I ' ll be a corpse. I see, said Dr. Plankman. Either you will have to marry Peter Paris, or you will have to tell your father you married Romeo. Therefore either you will be a bigamist or a corpse. That ' s a dilemma, a complex construction dilemma. A what? A dilemma. You are impaled upon the horns of a dilemma. Is it very bad to be that way? sasked Julie. Terrible. Unless you can escape between the horns. Why don ' t you take some of my courses, Juliet? I haven ' t time. I ' ve got so much work now I ' m almost crazy. Crazy, crazy — that ' s an idea! What ' s an idea? An idea is made up of two terms. Let me see now. No man would want to marry a crazy woman. Therefore Paris wouldn ' t want to marry you. That ' s a enthememe of the second order. What ' s that? ' Well, the minor premise is omitted. And in this case the minor premise is ' You are crazy. ' All A ' s are X ' s. B is X. Therefore all A ' s are B ' s. Do you see? But I ' m not crazy. That is irrelevant. You could be crazy. Pretend you are crazy. They ' d send me to an asylum. Not until they had called in the alienists to test your spine. And by the time the alienists got here from Kansas, you could be with Romeo in banishment. Keen, said Julie. And just for that I ' ll take Logic next year. Julie spent the next day setting all the alarm clocks, and turning the chairs -I 61 1- ? ' « f :!V S( A-, upside down. At first the house-mother thought she was just excited about marry- ing Peter; but when she found her painting the piano keys blue, she sent in an emergency call for Dr. Capulet. When he arrived she was sewing lace on the edge of the rug, and he decided to postpone the wedding indefinitely and to call in the alienists. In the meantime, Julie wrote a letter to Romeo and sent it special. She would have sent a wire, but she was afraid the operator might notify her father. Any- way, she told him to go into disguise, catch the next train, and meet her at the corner drug store Saturday morning at ten. Well. Saturday morning I went down to the drug store to sort of see that things were in order. I stuck around pricing postage stamps and life savers, and pretty soon in walked Romeo with his hair all mussed up and with a funny-looking baggy old suit on. I would not have recognized him if he hadn ' t looked me in the eye. Coke, he said. Oh, say said the apothecary laying down the glass, do you know Juliet Capulet? I ' ve heard of her. What about her? Well, she ' s gone plumb nutty. Nutty? My God! And that contract lasts two years. A nutty wife! And here I faced all these dangers to come up here ami elope with her. Say, will you put a shot of sulphuric acid in that coke? I haven ' t any sulphuric acid. Will arsenic do? It ' s the latest thing now. That ' ll be al ' l right. Just as the apothecary was calling up the coroner, in rushed Juliet. Look, she cried, my letter to Romeo, unopened! Did you put a stamp on it? I asked? Six of them. Did you put the right address on it? Yes. I put ' San Bernardino Junior College ' ; and look what they ' ve written across it at the post office, ' No such address ' . Gosh, I said, Maybe you should have put down the street and number. Say, Julie, I hate to break the news to you, but it is my painful duty. Romeo is dead. He ' s back there in the corner. Romeo dead? Ah, she sobbed, let me die! She grabbed a bread knife from the soda fountain; and before I had a chance to tell her how very uncircumspect. such actions were she stabbed hereself. Of course, there was a lot of excitement. The whole school turned out, including Dr. Capulet and his family. It was only a matter of an hour when Dr. Montague rushed on the scene. Unjust as it may seem, they tried to accuse me and the drug- gist of murder. Then Dr. l ' laiikinan burst through the crowd. -[62 It was all my fault, he cried, but it is for the sake of education. I would not have told her to go crazy if she hadn ' t promised to take Logic next year. Hush, said Dr. Capulet, we must not make a faculty scandal out of this. It must have been suicide. But, turning to Dr. Montague, It ' s our fault. It ' s the fault of the schools. If California and Stanford hadn ' t had that horrid football battle, Tybalt would not have been killed, Romeo would not have been banished, Julie would not have gone crazy, and the two of them would not have died. . Yes, said Dr. Plankman, It ' s a perfectly clear example of cause and effect. What is more, Dr. Capulet continued, the only safe game for colleges is tennis. We must abolish war and football. Come on, Montague, let ' s shake and be friends. And so it was not so bad after all. Of course I was not especially joyous about losing a perfectly good room-mate, but I can see the bright side of everything. And after all, what are two people, from a socialized standpoint, when the peace of two colleges is at stake? So. in spite of my grief, I can rejoice that the two schools have signed a peace pact, and that Julie ' s shoes and mine are the same size. Winifred Membery 63 The autumn of IH7 found R. J. C. facing a strenuous seven game football schedule with a nef: costch at the athletic helm and with only four veterans hack in moleskins. In strict fairness to Coach Neufeld and to the gridiron squad it must be said that Riverside ' s eleven ranked second to no other in terms of true spirit and clean sportsmanship. The tawny Tiger went down in defeat on four occasions, but left its stamp of cleanliness and fairness on each of its conquerors. The lettermen were: Captain R. Costo, A. Powers, R. Bailey, .1. Erramuspie, V. Brittain, C. McEuen, F. McEuen, W. Ridgeway, H. Tierce, II. Fletcher, J. Elliot, II. Timmons, II. Martin, W. Stone, E. Mills, J. Choteo. Compton at Riverside, Octoher li ComptOD Junior College visited Riverside on Octoher 1.5 and scored a 20-0 victory over the locals in the opening conference game. The Riverside eleven displayed power, hut inferior interferences ruined all chances of victory. Santa Ana at Riverside, October 22 The Santa Ana Dons were the next aggregation to invade Riverside, appearing in the Poly stadium October -22nd. The Saint ' s fast reverse attack completely baffled the locals and the v isitors held a v 24-0 advantage shortly after the second half opened. At this point the Tigers finally fathomed the Dons ' reverses, took the offensive, and drove over for two touchdowns before the final whistle. Santa Ana 24, Riverside 13. Riverside at Glendora, October 29 On Saturday morning, October 29, Neufeld ' s combination went to Glendora and tied a mediocre Citrus eleven. An indifferent defense robbed the local men of a victory. The final score was 18-18. Riverside at San Bernardino San Bernardino was Riverside ' s next opponent. The game was played on the Indians ' field, and was marked by the extremely bad luck against which the Tigers played. Undeniably the locals displayed superior passing and running attacks, but the Redmen, ultimate champions, received every favor that Fate had to offer and swept to a 2 to ( victory. (i(i v. Chaffey at Riverside, November 12 Ghaffey, visiting Riverside on November 12, was completely annihilated by an all-powerful Tiger team. The locals, playing their best game of the season, ran wild to score six touchdowns. Chaffeys ' every offensive thrust was abruptly halted, as the 157 to score would indicate. Pasadena at Riverside, November 19 And then came the Pasadena Pirates! The Crown City men, with the con- ference championship as their goal, swooped down upon Riverside on November 19, expecting nothing more than a light work-out from their under-rated opponents. However, Coach Neufcld had prepared his men for just such a situation. The Tigers took the offensive with the opening whistle and three times during the first half they drove the dismayed Buccaneers within four yards of their own goal. The second half found Pasadena less under the influence of conceited indifference. The Pirates were potentially stronger ami shoved across a lone touchdown to de- feat their traditional foes by a (i to score. Riverside at Fullerton Thanksgiving Day, November 24, found the Orange and Black squad at Fullerton where they sent the Drillers down to a bitter 14 to l. ' i defeat. This victory was a most fitting climax to a trying season. vst j The 1928 basketball season brought Riverside Junior College its first athletic title in two years. Coach William Neufeld, a squad of determined court fighters, and the local students at large are to be recognized as the factors which made for a successful campaign and won for Riverside the Inland Division basketball cham- pionship. Lettermen include: Captain Heston Pierce, Glenn Campbell, Russel Bailey, Arthur Powers, Delmar Reed, Bugford Busby, and Harry Bliss. Kenneth Smith deserves commendation. Riverside at Chaffey, January 14 On the evening of January 14 Captain Pierce led the locals against the formidable Panther of Chaffey J. C. A convincing 43-24 victory opened the season for River- side. Citrus at Riverside, January 21 A week later the Tigers played host to Citrus, and delighted Sophie-Freshie guests by loafing through to an easy victory. The score was Riverside . ' 57, Citrus 29. Riverside at Chaffey January 30 Because of a misunderstanding, two ineligible Tigers had taken part in the first two conference games Chaffey and Citrus courteously consented to replay. Accordingly Riverside went again to Chaffey on January 30 and emphasized its first victory by a . ' 50 to 10 score. The losers failed to register a field goal throughout the encounter. Riverside at Citrus, February 1 A second victory over Citrus was more dearly bought by the Tiger crew. Playing on their own floor, the Orange Pickers took the offensive and ended the first half in a 1,5-1.5 deadlock with the locals. The wearers of the Orange and Black gained the offensive position in the last half and ran amuck to score thirty-five points. The final count was Riverside .50, Citrus 28. — [ 69 San Bernardino at Riverside, February 11 The S;m Bernardino IfiJ !li;ins, Riverside ' s most hitter athletic enemies, came to the local . M. ( ' . A. floor on the evening of February 11, and were whipped by Neufeld ' s men for the Inland title. It was a clean, hard battle, with the better team taking a 23-20 decision. Pasadena at Riverside, February 15 The following Wednesday evening, February 15.. Pasadena and her ultra-bold Buccaneers, who had finished second to Long Beach in the Western League race, dropped anchor in the local harbor. The contest was the greatest court game in Riverside ' s history, ending in a 35-35 tie. Two extra periods of play were necessary to determine Pasadena as the winner; score, 40-37. Riverside at Long Beach, February 18 Riverside visited Long Beach for the season ' s finale. The Vikings had dropped their first playoff to San Bernardino, and were vexed; the Tigers had given too much in the Pirate game, and were tired. The result was a 34-12 win for the Western League champions. ,. .■■■y .l Bifi -[70]- ■ ' .■■ . ' :■ ' :-. f£2 Yfc Tf@$i ' 4 if- ' . .

As a result, the local squad failed to reach its peak until late in April,-. when the conference meet was already history.

Redlands University at Riverside, February 18 Riverside officially opened the inter-collegiate season on February 18, meeting the University of Redlands ' Bulldogs on the Poly stadium. Coach Neufeld ' s com- petitive judgment proved to be sound, the Tigers taking enough places behind the various winners to gain a (57-04 decision over the Baptists. Riverside at Chaffey, February 24 A visit to Chaffey Junior College served as a conference opener. The Panthers were swamped, 1 14-17. Riverside at Los Anjjeles, March 1 March 1 found five of Riverside ' s most consistent preformers on the hospital list.

The latter won individual high point honors for the second successive year. Pasa- dena totaled 4!)i 2. points to win. Riverside ' s score was 32} • , and Compton finished third with 30%. Fiver ide at San Bernardino, April 5 In a mediocre meet staged on the Indian ' s fast oval on April 5, Neufeld ' s men emphasized superiority over the usually stubborn Gate City athletes.

' 55 points against the Buccaneers in dual competition. L. A. A. C. At Riverside, April 21, 1928 April 21 found the most powerful track squad in the nation on Riversides athletic field. Through the efforts of Coach Neufeld the Los Angeles Athletic Club brought its stellar performers to the local stadium where they competed against an all star aggregation of junior college men. Riverside At Fresno, April 28 A squad of six men represented the local college in the Raisin Day Relays in Fresno on April 28th. Bob Patton, Riverside ' s greatest track star, scored eleven points, taking a pair of firsts and a fourth place to win high point honors in Class B competition. This closed a comparatively successful season for Tiger track athetics. 73 A well-rounded diamond squad brought to Riverside a third divisional title for the 1927-1928 sport season. On May 3 Coach Neufeld ' s men defeated San Ber- nardino to claim the sectional crowiT. The score was 2 to 0, representing nine innings of baseball of the first order. The Long Beach Viking ' s who had broken even in a pair of earlier practice games with the Tigers, finished second to Fullerton in the Western League race and visited Riverside on May 23 for a semi-final game. The invaders won 5-3, but were forced to go ten innings to do so. This set-back snuffed out the locals ' chances for a southland title and consequently terminated their diamond season. Neufeld ' s men played fifteen games in all, winning nine, losing five, and tieing with LaVerne College in the other, for a percentage of .633. Five of the Tigers ' victories were by shut-out scores.

MEN ' S TENNIS Tennis on the local campus is gradually becoming one of the mosl popular sports of the school as well as one of the most efficient and successful. Sunny California makes it possible for teams to keep in practice the year around, and consequently the brand produced is often brilliant. This year, the tennis squad was expecting to do something big for their Alma Mater, but were somewhat se- verely trounced by the Chaffey Junior College aggregation. The reason was ex- plainable, however, for the shining hope, Art Powers was first singles player almost out of commission with a wrenched knee. In a mid-season non-conference match the team made an excellent showing against the Redlands varsity and succeeded in wresting every match from the larger school. The college is expecting to enter several combinations in the Southern California Conference tournament and it is quite a possibility that one or more of them will emerge victorious. A ' ladder tournament to determine the school championship will be held during the close of the season. — RJC — WOMEN ' S TENNIS Due to the fact that the girls were ousted from the league which formerly in- cluded both men and women, the Junior College women ' s tennis teams found themselves at the opening of the season with no scheduled tournaments. Upon appeal to the women ' s commissioner of athletics the decision was made that there was not sufficient time to organize a woman ' s league and get it into operation for the year. However, plans are now being made for a league under which women ' s inter-collegiate tennis will be played next year. Several informal matches were played with neighboring schools: Chaffey Junior College, Fullerton Junior College, Corona High, and others. At the Play Day May 12, Riverside won its first singles against Chaffey, and its first doubles against Long Beach. In the majority of these tournaments, first singles were played by Margaret Wilson ; first doubles. May Henry and Helen Shine; second singles, Zelda Finley; second doubles, Helen Lohrli and Dorothy Derby. Barbara Hammond substituted in the second doubles. wSsyiOTVTO r iiCT SKSi ' vP vJijtft .. .:£i;fcw;S .6 1- .,-;. v ' ,t _ J- S- ? ■■■ ' ' ■• ' .•■. ' ' ■ ' ? ' ' ' - ' ' •  •- ' •• ---■--•• J.

Mrs. Cathyrn Huntley, physical who came to us last year with the plan for the W. A. A. and rood ideas, and has greatly aided the officers and members The second year Junior College has cducat iorj director, many other new and «f the association to make this a successful year. m mmxw ™ The Women ' s Athletic Association, not being an organization which provides for inter-collegiate sports other than Play Days, has done much to attract women who love sports hut cannot excell in them. The first sport in the season was volleyball. This attracted about thirty-seven women. Basketball did not attract so many as there is only room for the small number of six on a basketball team. Hockey, however, proved the greatest favorite of all, as there were forty-one on the roll for that sport. Tennis was this year, as in previous years, an inter-collegiate as well as inter-class sport, and it was thus, the only such sport. Baseball also proved a favorite, drawing out a good number of women athletes. The Play Days, which are held for the purpose of friendly, get-acquainted competition, rather than the glory of victory, were held this year at Pasadena, Glendale, and Chaffey. Riverside J. ( ' . was well represented at Pasadena, sending over a winning team in both volleyball and basketball. Many good times were enjoyed by the members of the teams and association this past year. At the beginning of the year the women hiked to Fairmont Park, where they ended the party with a delicious wiener roast Shortly after, the Sophomores defeated the Freshmen in basketball and so had the privilege of being- treated to a delightful supper by the Freshmen. The Freshmen, however, were the victors in two out of three hot battles of basketball, and so were entertained at a theater party by the Sophomores. The Dance Recital which the Association sponsored this year, proved a wonderful success. The dances were all presented by the members of Mrs. Huntley ' s natural dancing class. There was a varigated and very pleasing program. Among the dances were old-fashioned dances, costu nc dances, old Greek dances, and natural dances, besides readings and vocal solos. This dance recital, which was the first of its kind ever held in R. J. C. was a success financially as well as otherwise. One of the most interesting features of the W. A. A. is its point system, whereby its members may earn a letter or pin. To earn a letter a member must gain 3, r A) points, every first team counting KM) points. There are other ways in which a member may earn points. Among these are hiking, training and holding an office. The letter is usually earned by Freshmen, and the pin by Sophomores. Those who have earned their letter during this past year are: Marjorie Spalding, Florence Hill, Dorothy Cheek and Helen Lohrli. Those who have earned their pin, the highest award of the association, and re- quiring TOO points are: Dorothy Osborne. Ruth Cooper, Helen Shine, Genevieve Cree, May Henry, and Marie Von Kanel. .««?. .ww w - ' ' h - mid -17!) r llSW CALEM .-j x September 29 — School opens. Groans from the student body.

Who said Crimes of Norman! 15 — J. C. Ditch Day. We all go to Laguna. r J c THE MIXER The Mixer, J. C. ' s traditional ice-breaker, was held at the Woman ' s Club, October 18, and can be said without exaggeration to have heen the best yet. Other years it has been held in the library which was then an assembly rather than a study hall, and was in the form of an informal spread and an evening of games and entertainment. This year, however, under the direction of Charlotte Kendrick, Social Chairman, the Mixer was a dinner-dance which proved to be highly successful. The Hallowe ' en motif was used in decoration, and created a delightfully fantastic atmosphere. To add to the amusement. Freshmen were required to appear dressed in a manner befitting their lowliness. Green ruffles, hair ribbons and neckties blended with the festive orange and black. Between the dinner and the dance was a cleverly presented impromptu program and a short, painless initiation of Freshmen. A good orchestra, a good tloor, and good fellowship insured a good time for the remainder of the evening. r J ( ' SOPHIE-FRESHIE On January 27 the Woman ' s Club was the scene of the Sophie-Freshie, the second big social function of the year. A committee under Dot Adams, Sophomore class social chairman, evolved a de- cidedly new and unique plan for a dinner. Flaid gingham table cloths and nap- kins, beer bottle candle holders transformed the usual semi-formal dinner into a hilarious pirate party. When the last baked bean and dill pickle was eaten the pirates rushed to the Y. M. C A. where they watched the Tiger quintet tear the Citrus five to shreds. With higher spirits than ever, they returned to the scene of their former festivity and completed the evening with a dance. With the plaid gingham squares still in evidence as handkerchiefs and necker- chiefs rather than as napkins, and witli a large keg of cider to add to the informality, the pirate atmosphere existed throughout the evening. -[ 87 1- ■.vilfeg . CELEBRATION DANCE Tlie customary basketball rally was supplanted this year by a celebration dance at the Legion Club House, February 11. following the game with San Bernardino. It seems that victory already won creates more enthusiasm than does victory hoped for. The joy of conquering is more whole-hearted than the joy of antici- pation. Then, too, the Berdoo rooters are good sports. And so, with students of both schools feeling friendly and peppy, the occasion was one of happiness. rjc LEAP YEAR HOP On February 24, the women students departed from formerly established pre- cedents, and staged a Leap Year party which proved to be most unique and suc- cessful. The Woman ' s Club, at one time a witch ' s hut and at another a pirates ' den, gave further evidence of its versatility by becoming for the evening a cabaret. During the dance, which was the chief attraction, refreshments were served at small candle-lit tables which were arranged around the room. And the women paid! Between dances, musical numbers and a fancy dance provided entertainment. After having spent a very enjoyable evening the girls escorted their hoy-friends home and resigned to them the initiative in making dates for another four years. r.i C FRESHIE-SOPHIE One of the most outstanding gala events of the year was the Freshie-Sophie which took place May 4 at the new Aurea del Vista Hotel. The appointings of the hotel ball room lent a distinctive air to the dance which approached formality more nearly than any previous affairs. Following the dance a delightful buffet supper was served, during which time a program was given. Credit for the success of the evening is especially due Eugene Tucker, president of the Freshman class, and Edith Coffin, social chairman. RJC COLLEGE DAY Probablv no event of the year was met with greater enthusiasm than College Day. held May 15. The privilege of ditching classroom work held within itself no little glamor, but the prospect of spending the day at Balboa greatly added to the interest and enjoyment. Weather conditions seemed unfavorable at first, hut finally Old Sol acquiesced to adjust his mood to that of the merry-makers. Aside from the usual swimming and lounging, a great diversity of pastimes was in evidence. The men showed genius in inventing, or at least reviving games which were spectacular if not intellectual. Leap Frog and Crack the Whip caused great enthusiasm, and claimed the attention of many. An interclass game of baseball which the Sophomores won by a good margin proved itself of special attraction. 88 PW ' S TVGER ' i DEMOU ' =MREW ED frt Wti i HIS Sl=rtER-W- -Wrt MRS.
