Architects Mr. Vernon Helmke V-nl Sponsor Mr. Emil Golla Sponsor Visit, Compete, Listen Thomas Hernandez and Hiram Sanchez study the design of La Villita Assembly Hall on a field trip to visit buildings of architectural significance. Visiting homes of architectural impor- tance was iust one project of the SOCIETY OF STUDENT ARCHITECTS. Club members, who are also free-hand drawing students, studied the unique designs of these houses. Sophomore club members participated in a spring contest which created much in- terest. Prizes were given by the Architects Wives Auxiliary. The annual club banquet was held at the Barn Door Restaurant on May 16. A panel discussion featured three well-known architects: Paul Hesson, Allison Perry, and Edward Mok. The design contest prizes were also awarded at this time. Architectural instructor H. P. Janssen points out buildings of architec- tural interest on a city map as students Stephen Coindreau, William Butcher, Jerry Sparks, Reynaldo Mercado, and John McGuinness add their comments. Occupying much time at meetings are movies and slides which these student architects view enthusiastically. Preparing such a 'film are William Butcher, Edward McGoohan, Roland Hardy, and Kirby Whitehead. I65
