It is a good thing to love the church, it is a good thing to love the state, it is a good thing to love one ' s home, it is a good thing to be loyal to one ' s father and mother, and after the same sort it is good to be loyal to the University, which stands in life for the purest things and the cleanest, loftiest ideals.

Here is expressed the citizen viewpoint on college policies, while in turn the Board of Trustees must interpret to citizen supporters the College ' s aims, needs and accomplishments. The standing of the institu- tion and the willingness with which its constituents provide it with needed facilities indicate just how well that work has been done. The ideal trustee has a deep interest in youth, is devoted to the cause of education, serves unselfishly, gives liberally of his time and, while thoroughly practical, must at the same time be able to subordinate the details of finance, construction, and maintenance to the larger goal of providing the individual student with a broad educational opportunity. Your college was most fortunate in the standard set for its trustees by the late N. A. Richardson, whose own life work was a virtual history of education in San Bernardino. His untiring efforts coupled with a firm conviction of the prominent part your school was destined to take in our local educational field have been a lasting inspiration to his asso- ciates and successors. The position of distinction which your college enjoys and the high regard with which it is held in the community are some indicatons of how well your citizen representatives have served. To the type of man who has served your school in this capacity, it is ample compensation to have had some part in a community service that has furthered the careers of hundreds of young people. In return for this unselfish service, these men deserve your respect, appreciation, and support. „ Frank H. Binney, Trustee Emeritus f ' r: §fhf C. J. O ' Connor J. M. Odkey S. J. Andrews W. N. Glasscock W. Willhoft 15 A TRIBUTE Doctor Nicholas Ricciardi has long been rec- ognized as an outstanding leader in the junior college movement in California. In the years that he was Commissioner of Secondary Edu- cation in the state, he gave constructive lead- ership in the development of standards for the establishment of new junior colleges and in the improvement of curricular offerings and guid- ance service in those already in existence. As President of San Bernardino Valley Junior College for the past six years, he has helped materially to give this institution a place of leadership and significance, especially in the field of adult education, not only in California but also throughout the nation. The judgment of his professional associates in the state is well indicated by his election to the presidency of the California Junior College Federation. Doctor Ricciardi ' s influence in the junior college field, however, has by no means been confined to California alone. He has received well-merited national recognition. His varied activities in the work, of the American Asso- ciation of Junior Colleges for the past ten years culminated in his election to the presidency of that important Association last year at Phila- delphia. During his administration the Asso- ciation has been completely re-organized, an executive office established in Washington, a salaried secretary secured for the first time, and plans developed for a long-time program of constructive service, research, and interpre- tation. At the recent annual meeting of the Association in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the largest and best meeting of the Association ever held. Dr. Ricciardi presided with efficiency and good judgment. His presidential address was properly characterized in formal resolu- tions adopted as meaningful, provocative, and inspirational — the pronouncement of an edu- cational statesman. I trust he will be able to devote many more years to sanely progressive educational lead- ership in the junior college field — at San Ber- nardino, in California, and in the nation. Walter Crosby Eells, Executive Secretary, American Association of Junior Colleges Washington, D. C. March 20, 1939 16 LOOKING FORWARD The best preparation for a rich tomorrow is an honest effective today. Enduring satisfaction in the future derives from faithful achieve- ment in the present. May each student live this day and each day so completely and fully that he may look backward without regret and forward with confidence and courage. Tempe E. Allison, Dean of Women It is my hope that the many pleasant associations with members of the class of 1939 may not end with graduation but find renewal in the years to come with increasing interest and friendship. Edna Storr, Librarian The world today is faced with such grave problems as insecurity, unemployment, racial persecution, and civil war. It is my sincere hope that this or some class of 1939 will produce leaders with sufficient vision and wisdom to lead the mass of struggling humanity into a form of social organization that will serve all, and exploit none, of the world ' s population. June again marks the termination of attendance at the Junior College for many young men and women. Some will enroll in university, and others will begin the lifelong job of earning a living. E. P. Brown, Acting Dean of Men I hope that each one who leaves Junior College this year may de- velop and progress in the years to come at the same rate as some whom I have observed with pleasure.

Caught off guard by the dry humor which emanates from an expres- sionless face, students ore puzzled; but close inspection always shows a twinkle in the kindly eyes. At odd moments when the class is concentrating on a hard problem, he is a punster. With all his punning or because of it, he gets his subject into the comprehension of the class in a competent and painless way. Upon her return to the campus last Septem- ber, after a year ' s leave of absence, Doctor Mattie M. Ramelli, chairman of the Division of Languages, was honored by the request to deliver the annual Faculty Research Lecture. Doctor Ramelli ' s studies have carried her into England, France, Italy, Spain, Mexico, and Guatemala. She studied also at the University of California and Stanford. 21 THE FACULTY ASSOCIATION Seven years ago the teaching members of San Bernardino Valley Junior College, exclusive of administrative officers, brought into exist- ence the Faculty Association. Created for the purpose of faculty better- ment, the controlling purpose of the Association is social and profes- sional advancement in the teaching fields. Each spring the Faculty Association sponsors an annual faculty re- search lecture, rendered by one of its members. Basing the lecture upon his respective field of specialization and research, the speaker deals with the progressive aspects of his work. This May the faculty lecture A Philological Study of a Dialect of Ticino, Switzerland, was delivered by Dr. Mattie M. Ramelli, chairman of the Foreign Language Division. Organized in 1932, the Faculty Association now boasts a seven year record of service. It holds at least one dinner meeting and three or more business meetings each semester. This year the autumn dinner meeting was held in the Social Hall preceding the Faculty Concert by Miss Alexandra Grow and Miss Gwladys Pugh, which opened the musical season in the new auditorium. The exact nature of the conclu- sions reached during the meetings are confined within the organization. Several years ago the Faculty Association obligingly fostered the student body reception for freshmen. At present the sophomore class has gained sufficient confidence to sponsor the reception. During the past year the Faculty Association had for its officers Dr. James V. Harvey, president; Mr. Douglas W. Smythe, vice-president Miss Maude E. Rich, secretary; and Mr. Edward B. Heath, treasurer. New officers are elected annually in the spring. The Executive Committee of the Association consists of the four regular officers m cooperation with an additional three members. During the current year Mr. Arthur R. Truscott, Mr. Ellis L. Spackman, and Miss Amanda Jacobson served on the Executive Committee. 2?. c L A S s E S .

Created as a facul+ystudent body organization for the purpose of effecting harmony in the campus activities of the students, the Co-ordina- tion Council has evolved into the prime advisory body of San Bernardino Valley Junior College. When a student or faculty member initiates a constructive sugges- tion concerning the college, or if that person is dealing v ith a problem pertaining to the campus, the matter is introduced to the Co-ordination Council, which may then, upon approval, devise v rays and means for an advantageous conclusion. The Council reviewed its major business for the first time at its sec- ond session, November seventh, deciding first that the proposal of ex- change assemblies be left entirely within the scope of the Assembly Committee, under Chairman Dave Williams; however, the Council advised that exchange assemblies with higher institutions are more desirable than are those with other junior colleges. At the next meeting, December twelfth, all new appointments to the Council had been completed. At this convention, one of the important issues concerned student behavior as criticized by an editorial in a local publication. In regard to the latter incident, a journalistic campaign was inaugurated, in which a series of articles describing the best social con- duct for the campus was presented in the Warwhoop, the student weekly newspaper. The problem of an honor system in classes also was debated. The Council heard an explanation of the operating principles of a certain pledge that is employed effectively in actual business, and finally voted to permit President Linn Moses to establish a committee to investigate the details of the pledge system. The committee men, who worked in unison with Dr. Ricciardi, were led by Chairman Earl Stadtman. At each meeting throughout the first semester, Leland De Priest, chairman of the Traditions Committee, submitted a report on the progress of his group; he also introduced plans that were favorably received by the Council to preserve freshman traditions. Because of the change in the period schedule, which effected cm abbreviated lunch hour, the Council discontinued the Activities-Period Committee, headed by Don Everett. 40 SECOND SEMESTER CO-ORDINATION COUNCIL From left to right: Allison.

Co-ordinalion Council members of the second se mester, ripping the zipper on that body ' s activities for the remainder of the school year, lost little time at their opening session, March fourteenth, in effecting prepa- rations for the establishment of a blind date bureau. This novel accessory of Dan Cupid has found loud acclaim in col- lege institutions throughout the nation, and has evidently influenced the chance players of San Bernardino Valley Junior College. A committee to investigate the possibilities of introducing the stunt on the college campus was nominated by the Council, with Miss lone Giffen chosen as the committee chairman. On Miss Giffen ' s committee were Bill Thomp- son, Charles Hunting, and Bob Pomeroy — president, vice-president, and secretary, respectively, of the Associated Men Students; and Patricia Lamb and Betty Crawley — vice-president and secretary of the Associated Women Students. A report on the progress of the investigations was to be given peri- odically, and Miss Giffen promised that, if the bureau proposition is passed, it will be carried into effect next year. The second important discussion of the Council centered about the operation of the bookstore, though, at press time, no definite conclusion had been forthcoming from the Council in regard to this problem. A special committee headed by Earl Stadtman and appointed by the Coun- cil reported on a discussion with the Y ' se Women, current operators of the book store enterprise, enlightening the Council membrs on the mat- ter and furnishing information of the same to the student body at large. Plans were effected for the adoption and administration of the Tradi- tions Committee ' s recommendations. Paul Van Slyke, president of the Associated Students, served as chairman of the Council during the second semester; and Rita Skousen, vice-president of the Associated Students, was secretary. During the second semester. Co-ordination Council meetings were held in the la te afternoon instead of at the dinner hour. On one occasion the Associated Women Students provided refreshments; and at the clos- ing meeting, the Y ' se Women served as hostesses. 41 k FIRST SEMESTER EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE First semester student government officers rode into office on the crisis of the non-paddling legislation of the preceding year. The non-pad- dling legislation was amended to apply for one week only. At a meeting of the men students, Doctor Ricciardi read an old law setting forth the illegality of hazing. The ruling of this law resulted in the appointment of Leland De Priest as head of a committee to deal with traditions. Linn Moses, president of the Associated Stu- dents, headed the Executive Committee. Rita Skousen acted in the capacity of vice-president, and Ruth Hesser served as secretary. Earl Stadtman filled the office of treasurer. First semester Sophomore class representa- tives were Herbert Gardner and Louise Camp- bell. Louanne Nuttall and Donald Cocking served as Freshman representatives during the first semester. Officers and commissioners ap- pointed by the executive committee included Jeanne Beswetherick as editor of the Junior Quad; John Cole as Commissioner of Advertis- ing, and Andrea Johnson as Commissioner of Publicity. Norman Lindsay who was named Commissioner of Assemblies resigned and was succeeded by David Williams later in the semester. Earl Stadtman was appointed Com- missioner of Forensics. In all effects the first semester Executive Com- mittee worked in close harmony with the Co- ordination Council. 42 SECOND SEMESTER EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE The old order changeth and Paul Van Slyke handles the gavel as the second semes- ter executive committee is called to order. Students, at a general election, named Paul Van Slyke as their president for the wind-up semester of 1939. Rita Skousen, the effervescent bundle of energy who held the vice-president ' s post during the first semester, was unopposed for re-election. Taking time off from his book- store duties, Clifford Evans managed to poll enough votes to gather in the treasurer ' s office. It may have been her secretarial ability or that cunning smile; anyway Allene Johnson was chosen to handle the notebook for the ex- ecutive group. Other members of the Execu- tive Committee for the second semester were Louise Campbell and Herbert Gardner, sopho- mor representatives; and William Kennedy and Andrea Johnson, freshmen representatives. Co-operation with the students was the key- note struck by the group. Every effort was di- rected in an attempt to please the majority of the student body. Great strides were made in re-establishing the dying traditions on the Val- ley campus; Leland De Priest was retained by the committee as chairman of a traditions group designed to establish the customs of the college more firmly as a lasting institution pbell, Kennedy, W. 43 THE ASSOCIATED MEN STUDENTS Left to right: Gardner, Evensen. Lloyd, Kennedy, Pomeroy, Collins, Thompson, Waugh. Certified by a strange auditorship that examined capably and com- petently the scholastic ledger of the Associated Men Students has been closed for the 1938-1939 annals with a credit balance of notable accom- plishments. Mr. Eugene P. Brown, of the Commerce Division, assumed the position held by Dean Frank B. Lindsay when the latter obtained leave of absence early in the school year to perform special work for the btate Bureau of Education. President Bill Thompson, ably supported by the A. M. S. cabinet offi- cers-Vice-President Charles Hunting; Secretary Bob Pomeroy; Treasur- er Morris Collins— labored zealously during his twelve-month tenure ot office to realize fulfillment of the calendar schedule. Actual operations of the organization commenced during the open- ing of the fall semester with the sale of beanies. Next, the A. M. S. staged ' the annual Sophomore-Freshman pushball affair on October seventh, when the upper classmen preserved tradition by spanking the yearlings 3-0 Soon the cheer-manufacturing department unleashed some extra whoops of appreciation as the A. M. S. contributed toward the purchase of new yell-leaders ' uniforms. Under A M S. sponsorship, Karel Shultis ' Royal Music Masters entertained for two special programs that were designed to raise funds with which to send the college band to the San Bernardino-Phoenix foot- ball game, which was played in the Arizona metroplis during the Thanksgiving vacation. On the first occasion, October tenth, the swing band presented its own version of Swinging Through the Ages m a Swing Revue in the college auditorium, concluding with a sports dance in the gymnasium. In the second feature, college jitterbugs took off in a noon-hour Yell and Stamp in the gymnasium, October eighteenth. A M S assemblies during the year were chiefly devoted to open discussions of the merits of the stag dances, with no definite conclusion being reached pro or con. President Thompson announced that the A. M. S. would wind up all formal activities for the year with a barbecue in the spring. 44 THE ASSOCIATED WOMEN STUDENTS Left to right; Crawley, Gilfer, I How would you like to go to the Rose Ball with me?, a hundred pretty girls, all members of the Associated Women Students, asked their handsome choices. And so the annual Rose Ball, a formal sponsored by the Associated Women Students, was announced. On the thrilling eve- ning of the affair, the rustle of taffeta and the swish of velvet told the eager young men that the ladies were calling for them. Then to the tune of Moonlight and Roses, couples waltzed by the lovely pink roses decorating the walls, while moving spotlights covered the floor with luminous splashes of color. The Rose Ball was probably the most important event of the school year sponsored by the A. W. S., although an entire year ' s program was planned and carried out by the officers of the association: lone Giffen, president; Patricia Lamb, vice-president; Betty Crawley, secretary; Agnes Boland, treasurer; Roberta Saulman, social chairman; Ruth Bolton, campus chairman; and Eleanor Champion, program chairman, under the guidance of Doctor Tempe E. Allison. At the beginning of the year, a tea and fashion show were held so that the new students could become better acquainted with each other and with the older students. This tea was the first step taken this year toward the A. W. S. goal: more understanding and friendliness among the women of the college. The first Saturday of November, representatives of the A. W. S. and the W. A. A. were sent to the annual convention which was held at Pasa- dena. There they conducted a round-table discussion of social affairs; they also prepared a display of the different flower arrangements that were used for the various social activities of the organization. Later in November, an open house to promote more friendliness among all of the students of the college was held by the A. W. S. for the men and women students. Over cups of hot coffee and doughnuts, they met each other and talked together about problems of mutual interest. The Mothers ' Tea, a lovely affair which is given each year for the mothers of both the men and women students, was held late in April. The last event of the year is the installation of the new officers. 45 SOCIAL AFFAIRS COMMITTEE OF ASSOCIATED STUDENTS Lef to right: Skousen, McFadden, Chipps, Johnson, Wood. Social affairs at the Valley Junior College were ably handled this year by a Social Affairs Committee which took active control of every function that was sponsored by the Associated Students. It was through the efforts of this group that the students enjoyed a full calendar of ac- tivities. Meeting at the home of Doctor Tempo E. Allison, early in September for a business session over cups of aromatic tea, the group laid the ground work for the projects they would undertake during the year; they also appointed members of their committee as chairman for each of the affairs. A dinner meeting was held, also at Doctor Allison ' s house, on March twelfth, to organize plans for the second semester. Miss Rita Skousen, vice-president of the Associated Students, served as chairman of the committee. Her duties as vice-president included the arrangement of social events, and the committee gave her an opportunity to expand the social calendar. Those who were on the committee were Miss Maryann Johnson, who was named as finance chairman for the Spring Formal; Charles Wood, who was appointed chairman of the Christmas Formal; Neil Ferryman, who was placed in charge of the Spring Formal; and Miss Patricia Chipps, who served as secretary. To the students who served on the com- mittee, advisory aid was given by Dean Eugene P. Brown and Doctor Tempe E. Allison. The closing activity of the college year is the Commencement Formal. This year the theme chosen is Hawaiian; and Honolulu Holiday has been set for the evening of June seventh. The committee, under the lead- ership of Neil Ferryman, plans to turn the gymnasium into a tropical paradise. Supper will be served in the Social Hall. Patrons and patronesses for the affair are Doctor and Mrs. Nicholas Ricciardi, Judge and Mrs. Charles J. O ' Connor, Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Van Slyke, Mr. and Mrs. D. N. Williams, and Mr. and Mrs. John F. Vondey. 46 Gypsies, caballeros, savages, clowns, chil dren, old-fashioned folk: add them all together, multiply by seven, and the amazing result is the October Masquerade. The graveyard m one corner of the Gym did not seem to frighten even the most timid of the little girls attending the dance, and strangely enough the skeletons, who must have come from it, drank just as much cider as the thirsty truck-drivers; the savages nibbled re- freshments most decorously. The immense lolly-pops and clothes hangers awarded to Dorothy Shay, Allene Johnson, Bill Swope, and Bob Cranmer in recognition of their unique costumes after the Colossa march, caused much mirth among the weird spectators, who laughed and then whirled off again. Remembering the Christmas Formal — the soft lights, the perfume, the rustle of long dresses and the muffled click of high heels, all blending into a glamorous picture of the first college formal of the year. The new walls and ceiling of the gymnasium being used for the first time, and the music drifting in and out among the dancers, bells decorating the walls all around the room. Corsages for every girl, on her wrist, at her shoulder or waistline, or in her hair — the flowers furnished by her proudly smiling escort. The Rose Ball seen through a kaleidoscope — a hundred happy girls with their handsome carefully chosen escorts dancing under the vari-colored moonbeams of the spotlights shin- ing across the floor; the walls decorated with white lattice work covered with vivid pink roses so natural in appearance that some of the curious dancers attempted to smell them. Great circles of streamers hanging from the ceiling, and under them the circling couples ceaselessly making shifting color contrasts that changed and disappeared. .Finally the last waltz, I Love You Truly, and then out into the night, everyone thinking gladly The next dance is not far away. 47 FINE ARTS COMMISSION OF THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS We human beings, most of us, throughout our lives, are forced by necessity to devote the greater port of our efforts and abilities to the sat- isfaction of practical essentials. In fact, an amazingly large proportion of us are never able to devote more than an occasional moment to the cultivation and enjoyment of what have come to be known as the finer things in life . lust what do we mean by the finer things ? What is the secret of the joy of living? Wherein does the true worth of life lie? To some extent, of course, happiness is found in practical success. Fame and fortune gained in the world of business, indeed, are well worth striving for. However, it is a very different and a much more powerful joy that comes to him who appreciates or contributes to the world of art. To look at a great painting and feel as the artist who painted it felt, to burn with the same fires which guided his immortal brush; to be completely trans- ported by the work of a great composer; or better still, to look upon your own work and know that you have expressed your soul to your fellow men — that is life as it should be lived. And there can be no doubt but that the alert person will seize upon all opportunities which present themselves to partake of the treasures of the world of art. He who appreciates the benefits and satisfactions which are to be derived will strive to appreciate the works of the masters, and, oerhaps, will even place his own work alongside theirs. Here in our own college, almost beside us, are the most wonderful opportunities to learn to enjoy these finer things . Here are facilities and instruction of the highest order in both creative and aopreciative lines of each of the fields of art. Music, the drama, the arts of color and line, great literature — all of them are here, waiting for us to learn to know them and to love them and in doing so to learn to live. How much we will be missing of life if we do not take advantage of these opportuni- ties! We, who are much loser to the finer things, who have so much greater opportunities than do most of our fellow men, we should surely avail ourselves of life ' s greatest treasures. Here on these following pages are evidences of the things which some of our fellows are doing toward their own fullest enjoyment of living. Here is proof that there are those among us who are even now learning the true worth of life. They know, as we must learn, that life is all too short for waiting. Now is the time for us to begin to live. 48 THE INDIAN PAINT BRUSH Left to right: Fi ront row, Nichols, Gordon. Tylei ■, Middaugh.

Since its organization in 1927, the Indian Paint Brush Club has been a vital factor in the aesthetic development of the San Bernardino Valley Junior College. The purpose of the club is to foster an appreciation of art in college and in the community. As evidence of their seriousness of intent, the club has purchased, for the Library, William Wendt ' s oil painting, Santa Ana Canyon ; Armin Hansen ' s Monterey Hills ; and a water color by Millard Sheets. Programs of a social and intellectual nature are a regular part of the group ' s activities. During the current college year, a lecture by Rich- ard Neutra and a tea at Scripps College were enjoyed. The members of the club also attended the lecture by Malvina Hoffman at the college auditorium. Field trips were taken to see the Last Supper Window at Forest Lawn Memorial Chapel, the Orozco fresco at Pomona College, and the art collection of the Henry E. Huntington Library and Art Gallery. A limited number of club members were invited to inspect the gallery at the Disney Studios in Hollywood. The officers who served so well during the current college year were Robert Moore as president, Frank Nichols as vice-president, Elsie Tyler as secretary and treasurer, Doris Gordon as social chairman, and Nathelle Weld as publicity chairman. Late in the spring, the club sponsored two affairs for the student body. The first was a benefit tea-dance for the Social Affairs Committee on March twenty-second. Art students in colorful smocks lent a Bohemian atmosphere to the Social Hall. The Greenwich theme was carried out in decorations. On April nineteenth, the Club presented an exhibit of Indian portraits and relics from the studio of Kathryn Leighton, famous portrait painter, and a lecture by Mrs. Leighton, who related in an inimitable fashion her experiences in making many of her pictures. Preceding the lecture, guests from the college and town were entertained at a tea honoring Mrs. Leighton. 49 DELTA PSI OMEGA Left to right; Harder. D. Members oi the local chapter of the national Delta Psi Omega Fraternity have enjoyed a prosperous year under the able leadership of their president, Warner Newell. With Tempe Allison as director, the group has done a great deal to stimulate interest in junior college dra- matic activities. Members of the chapter have appeared in major dramatic produc- tions of the student body. La Rue Eason, Warner Newell, Dorothy Knight, George Brandow, Eugene Harder, and Robert Cranmer enacted impor- tant roles in the Globe Theatre version of Shakespeare ' s As You Like It, presented for the dedication of the new junior college auditorium. Warner Newell, Robert Cranmer, and Eugene Harder also were leading members in the cast of Fanny ' s First Play. Members of the society have also been active in the radio programs presented by the Junior College. Eugene Harder and Warner Newell have served as commentators and announcers on the programs, and, with La Rue Eason, presented a dramatic skit on one program. Pledges were initiated into the society on March eighth. Initiation ceremonies were held at the Arbor Cafe and took place immediately following the dinner meeinaf thoae,who survived the rites and who were duly admitted into tnfe jS|M nnclude the following: Louise Camp- bell, Robert Cranmer, Th«4) eJFe Kpy, John Garratt, Allene Johnson, Jose- phine McLellan and Donald Wcmlen. Seven members of the local chapter were approved by the National Membership Committee for full membership in the national organization; these seven were Eugene Doerr, Ruby Elder, Eugene Harder, Dorothy Knight, Alden Nye, and Robert Spohn. As a pleasurable diversion, members of the society joined in the pro- duction of a motion picture entitled Before the Production. With Alden Nye as camera man and producer (the angel with the finance) and Eugene Harder as script writer and director, Warner Newell, La Rue Eason, Patricia Lamb, Tempe Allison, George Renfro, and Eugene Doerr moved through the processes preceding the moment the heroine steps upon the stage in a college production. Well-chosen angle shots moved the scene from entrance hall to dressing rooms, and onto back stage, as the players in the play within the picture costumed themselves in the picturesque clothes left from As You Like It. Plans for a color film taken on the flower-decked campus, have been discussed but have not yet been carried out. II 50 October sixth, 1938, and the phrase College Players found vent in the pictorial As You Like It as the Associated Students dedicated a stage, and for the first time produced Shake- speare. On the evening ' s program was A Greeting from Lincoln Moses, president of the Associated Students, A Presentation by John Hume, president of the Associated Students first semester, 1937-1938, Looking Forward with Thelma Cluck and then house lights out, foot- lights up, curtain — An Elizabethan Pastime. Some sixty minutes of passed time and the Forest of Arden was merely scenery to those who came back stage. Plaudits fell thick from an audience that had come to see Shakespeare and saw to laud La Rue Eason ' s Rosalind , to praise Eugene Harder ' s Touchstone , and to value the playing of Warner Newell ' s Or- lando , Dorothy Knight ' s Celia , Patricia Lamb ' s Audrey , and Paul Lynde ' s Duke . Those who worked their lines m support read Robert Spohn, William , AljlerKjNy Adam ; James Tigner, Duke Robert Cranmer, Jaques ; Tha Corin . Doing dual duty with words an5 music were Carlos Velasquez ' Le Beau , and Merle Smith ' s Amiens . Any mention of music brings to the fore the student soloists, Virginia Galloway, Marjorie Kelley, and Brooks Miller, also their singing director, Miss Gwladys Pugh, The underscore that became an integral part of As You Like It was batoned by Mr. Karel Brett Shultis, Division of Music, as he put to play the orchestra and the a cappella choir. From the department of Health and Physical Education came the dancers of Mrs. Erma Glass to have the stage for their part in the ensemble. Credit belongs to the staff, stage crew, and house committee for their part in the evening ' s success. But the reward of all work came in the popular repeat performance, Tuesday, October eleventh, 1938, as the direction of Doctor Tempe Allison gave voice to him of Stratford. 51 7ANNY ' S FIRST PLAY ' The play outside a play that was The Induc- tion brought in the critics and authoress, gave them their exit lines, and the curtain for Act I was there. Then, first curtain found a Mr. Gilbey (Warner Newell) and a Mrs. Gilbey (Louise Corneilson) waiting to be attended by a Juggins , [Eugene J:{ iiv fT; to be confound- ed by a Dora (Patricia Lamb). Entr ' act interim of more Induction, as a G. B. S. (Welder Daniel) said his words to Fanny-of ' the-Title (La Rue Eason). She laughed. Act II followed close upon laugh as the stage crew made visible the Knoxes of Denmark Hill: Mr. Knox (Robert Cranmer), Mrs. Knox (Josephine McClellan), their Margaret (Allene Johnson), and her Marine — French — (Paul Lynde). Final curtain of Act II brought back more of critics as they had more of their say between acts, amidst audience, in spotlights. Exit critics — stage is set — curtain goes up on Act III. On stage: Bobby Gilbey (John Garratt). To enter: entire cast, bringing their Shavian tongues in Shavian cheeks to cap Shaw ' s lampooning of the inevitable butler that is the inescapable duke of an inexplicable society theatre. Cast on; climax — and they will live happily ever after . Last of the induction then assured Fanny that she has a past, and grease paint is mo- mentarily a thing of the gone-forever. Cold cream and kleenex call the Thespians. Home fires and the gay life call the audience. It goes knowing really little of the evening ' s proceedings for backstage, George Renfro and crew labor on, and Donald Wahlen ' s design- ings go to the stacks. In the first floor dressing room. Ruby Elder lays down the prompt book and helps to get this thing off. Out front, the box office folds its statement for Louanne Nuttall. Hostess Eleanor Champion and her as- sistants, Elizabeth Ralphs, Roberta Tibbots, and Roberta Saulman, have finished with Elizabeth Berry ' s programs. A more easily noticeable semblance of order appears as the evening cancels out — a production of the Associated Students, via Eugene Harder — direction by Doctor Tempe E. Allison. 52 i e gr u t of local thespiansj jftrepared for the pms ntation of Anton Cheliov ' s exaggerated ' omedy, Anniversary at the Pasadena Play- house One Act Play Tournament. Under the capable direction of Dr. Tempe E. Allison, the play emerged as a finished product before an enthusiastic audience of San Bernardino play- goers a few nights previous to its Pasadena presentation. The scene of the play is the board of direc- tors ' room in a Moscov bank on the occasion of the fifteenth anniversary of the founding of the bank. The thespians who forgot their dig- nity long enough to bring Chekov ' s tempestu- ous characters to life were Eugene Harder as Kuzma Nikolayevitch Hirin, a tired old over- worked bookkeeper; Warner Newell as An- drey Andreyevitch Shiputchkin , the meticu- lous young bank manager; La Rue Eason as Tatyana Alexeyevna Shiputchkin , his frivo- lous but pretty young wife, Patricia Lamb as Nastaya Fyodorvna Mertchutkin , the de- manding provincial older woman; Niles Han son as the doorman; and James Souther, Alden Nye, and Thomas Burgess as the members of the deputation who bring about a fitting climax to the hilarious situation as they make their highly anticipated entrance. The scenery followed the exaggerated style of the play. The walls were covered with a modernistic design of doorknobs, keys, and key- holes, suggested by Shiputchkin ' s passion for meticulous care of such minor details. Besides the director and cast, the production staff, headed by Ruby Elder, assistant director; Donald Wahlen, designer; Andrea Johnson, press representative; and George Renfro, nician, deserves credit for outsfandm J ' vfcri. At the tournament, Eugene ' - arcTer and Warner Newell were mentioned as the out- standing male actors. The set received special applause, and the play received praise and favorable comments. Although it did not place in the awards, it presented some strong com- petition for those plays which did. h2 Ill the Freshman Reception, September the Fine Arts Commission presented, for the entertainment of the incoming students, Theodore de Banville ' s play, Charming Le- ander. Under an autumn moon, the modernis- tic black and white setting and costuming were studies in contrast. The players, by use of exaggeration in posing, left a vivid impression upon the minds of the audience. La Rue Eason as Columbine, Warnery Newell ' ' ' as Leander, her lover, and Eugene I iPCj Kds Orgon, her father, made the characters sparkle with life. The story, the characterization, the setting, and the lighting followed the idea of contrast and exaggeration. This method had a tendency to make the audience feel as though it had been transported to a land of fantasy, and it enjoyed the experience. ' Jacques was in obvious love with Henri- 3tte ; her conscience refused him. Albert was in possessive love with the obvious one; she ordered him out of the house. Then, Jacques was welcomed, accepted; and Modesty by Paul Hervieu had gone its way. Warner Ne _ ell. La Rue Eason, and Eugene ?Ri«d%rrnad played out the French curtain-raiser to the enjoyment of the Colton Teachers ' Club. The way of a man and a maid told in the smooth verse of Edward Arlington Robinson and implicit with his philosophy of the limited vision of the human spirit, the poetic duologue, John Gorham, furnished the serious moments in the repertory of Elizabeth Ralphs and James Souther in their Platform Program by Two. The way of May wed to December as revealed in the quarrels of Lady Teazle and Sir Peter in Sheridan ' s School for Scandal provided oppor tunity for sharp character delineation. The way of a lover and his lass as rhymed out in Austin Dobson ' s Tu Quoque closed each program with a gay fillip. Suited to performance in living room, banquet hall, or concert hall, the program was used on varied occasions, not- ably at the High School Night of the Y ' se Women and at the tea with which the Asso- ciated Women Students honored their mothers. 54 NOTES FROM REHEARSALS Scene I. — An afternoon sun touches lightly at the curtain of the Beebe flat and falls in lazily- changing patterns as the breeze across Nutley, New Jersey, moves through the window. A false air of tranquility has come over the room. Leonard has fumbled and fidgeted his way through the morning, and the awful hour of the arrival of the boss approaches. A familiar knock sounds, and chaos is threat- ened. Chester from the flat above has an idea that includes a six-piano vaudeville act. The boss, John Kincaid of John Kincaid and Sons will, the neighbor feels sure, be inter- ested. At any rate, he intends to stay and ex- plain how he goes into it to the boss and Mrs. Kincaid. He stays; he explains. Scene II. — Leonard has been mumbling and sounding, posing and pausing as speech No. 47 runs through his troubled mind; Elsie enters, his coat on her arm. She has just pressed it, and it must cool before he dons the final touches to his formal wear. Again the clatter of Chester sounds at the door. He enters, and Leonard ' s speech No. 47 must wait while Chester ex- pounds on his almost insane vaudeville act You know — sitting on the pianos — lends class. Scene III. — Platitudes, politics, puns — the f f . dry, insipid intellectual provender of big busi- ' ' ness personnel banquets and the dinner honor- ' - ing the ninety-seventh anniversary of the Kin- caid Piano Company is a thing of last night. The one novel note of the whole evening comes in Elsie ' s speech. The ladies have their day. and To the Ladies has its night.

' p — . COLLEGE SOLO ARTISTS One group of student performers who are little known by the student body are the soloists. They are generous with their time and talent. Their names are well-known in the valley, for, under the direc- tion of the college music department, these students have appeared before many organizations. The college has received much value from the work of these students, for their charming and gracious manner coupled with their willingness to perform whenever asked leaves a favorable im- pression by which the entire San Bernardino Valley Junior College is judged. Vocalists include Merle Smith, tenor, Marjorie Kelley and La Rue Eason, sopranos. Some of the appearances made by Mr. Smith have been at James Weld ' s recital, at a luncheon in honor of former Governor Frank Merriam, before the service clubs of the valley, at student assemblies, and in student productions. Miss Kelley has appeared in student assemblies and productions, and before women ' s organizations throughout Southern California. Miss Eason ' s performances have included appearances before student organizations and in student assemblies, before women ' s organizations and at a recital given by the students of Miss Gwladys Pugh. Instrumental soloists include Eligio Zanone, accordionist; Dolores Kell, trumpeter; Henry Miranda, cornet soloist; Milton Jones, trumpeter; Charles Romo, saxophone and clarinet player; James Bolten- house, violinist; Margaret Jane Wright, Margaret Hirtzel, and Pershia Larsen, pianists; and Pearl Henck, celloist. Miss Kell has appeared before student organizations, before valley organizations, at the freshman receptions, at the Swing Revue, and on the Junior College radio program over KFXM. Mr. Miranda, Mr. Jones, and Mr. Romo all appeared on the Swing Revue and as soloists with the band in its several appearances in the college district. Mr. Zanone performed for the students of Redlands and Bloomington high schools and with the college swing band in the Swing Revue. Mr. Boltenhouse ap- peared at the A. W. S. Open House and at the Christmas party at the County Hospital. Miss Hirtzel has appeared before student groups. Miss Wright and Miss Larsen on the double pianos have appeared before student and valley organizations and on the Junior College radio program. Miss Henck has ap- peared before the student organizations. The student body is proud of this group of soloists, outstanding in service. 56 ' Af ■f K t)) CAPPELLA CHOIR Left to riglit: Last row, Hawkins, Ginther, Linko, Swall.

The vocalists were divided into three groups: a women ' s choir, a men ' s choir, and a mixed choir. Accompaniment was by a symphony orchestra made up of students and of townspeople. This group of musicians who performed simply for the love of music was very popular in San Bernardino Valley and were in constant demand. The next year a music department was established, and the choir and orchestra work became a part of the regular curriculum. Year before last the Music and Drafting building was formally opened, □nd the a cappella choir was established in appropriate surroundings. Under the direction of Mr. Karel B. Shultis, the a cappella choir today has become an integral part of college life. Its initial appearance came at a pep rally before the first football game when it led the student body in singing the college songs including Over Hill, Over Dale and On to Victory. The pro- gram closed, as usual, with the Alma Mater, All Hail. The choir appeared again in Shakespeare ' s As You Like It when the play was presented by the College Players at the formal opening of the new auditorium. The choir sang two Elizabethan songs, Tell Me Not of a Lovely Lass and Shepherd ' s Dance. In the impressively beautiful Christmas assembly, the choir singing O Bon Jesu and Song of the Nightingale provided background music. The last appearance of the a cappella choir of 1938-39 was at the Baccalaureate Service when it sang the beautiful music typical of graduation time. 57 THE ' y SWING V° BAND 58 Swinging Through the Ages was the theme and title of the Junior College jam- sters ' musical revue this year. Easily rated the outstanding entertainment hit of the year, the concert began at eight o ' clock on the eve- ning of November tenth, when Mr. Karel Shul- tis took up his baton on the stage of the Col- lege Auditorium. Selections both old and new, played in orig- inal symphonic swing arrangements by the Junior College Swing Band, were the feature of the evening. The voices of Paul Lynde and Warner Newell, announcing as from nowhere with the aid of a public address system, added a touch of mystery to the program. Offering a slightly different form of enter- tainment, the band changed its stand from the stage of the auditorium to the gymnasium dance floor where, they settled into the groove with some solid sending of hot jive and swing-time shuffle. The proceeds of the event were used to send the band to Phoenix with the football team. While in Phoenix, the swingsters gave a good account of themselves, detracting attention from the game and playing for a Victory Dance the night after the concert. Musicians in the band were Director, Karel B. Shultis, saxophones. Bill Linko, Charles Romo, Bill Rhoads, Brooks Miller, Fred Saville, J. C. Tracer ,Tony Viero; clarinets. Dale Gin- ther, J. C. Tracer; trumpets, Delores Kell, Henry Miranda, Milton Jones, Clifford Morris, John Van Koevering; trombone, Charles Engel; sou- saphone. Bob Russell; accordions, Eligio Za- none, Louis Valterza; drums, Ambrose Eaton; and piano, Carlos Velasquez. The three old-fashioned maids in the vocal trio were Marjorie Kelley, Margaret Hirtzell, and Lucille Petrausch. Busines details for the concert were capably handled by the Associated Men Students. ' J lf The instrumental trio was organized for the purpose of furthering the activities of the Music Division of the San Bernardino Valley Jun- ior College. Miss Alexandra Grow is the spon- sor; and Margaret Jane Wright, pianist; Patricia Chipps, cellist; and Archie Smith, violinist make up the ensemble. Miss Wright is majoring in music; Patricia Chipps, in bacteriology, and Archie Smith, in engineering. The trio prac- tices on the average of six hours per week, part of that time being spent under the direct supervision of Miss Grow. During the current college year, the trio played several times on programs presented by the college through the KFXM, Lee Brothers ' Broadcasting Station of San Bernardino. It also contributed the incidental music for the annual Commerce Dinner and appeared on numerous programs in the community. The lost appearance for the college year will be at the Baccalaureate Service in June. For the annual students ' recital, under the auspices of the Commission of Fine Arts, in co- operation with the Division of Music, this year presented Clyde Zulch, pianist, in a delightful program of classical music. It was originally planned that Merle Smith, vocalist, would take part in the program, but Mr. Smith, unfortunately, was injured in an automobile accident ten days before the pro- gram; consequently Mr. Zulch carried on alone. His program included compositions by Bach, Brahms, Chopin, Debussy, and de Falla. Mr. Zulch has been active in musical events of the college, accompanying the A Cappella Choir, entertaining at numerous social affairs, and playing for all radio programs sponsored by the college. George calls quiet , air the mike , takes his last deep breath, and the cutting needle goes down. You ' re on and the air check for a program of the Junior College ' s radio half hour is under way. The stop watch clicks off the seconds for the timing as announcer, sing- er, instrumentalist, or player moves noiselessly into place and out again. At last, the head is lifted, and all settle back comfortably to hear the playback from the acetate. 59 The unsung heroes of every production are the members of the stage crew who work long hours to accomplish the tedious details neces- sary to make the mise-en-scene function smoothly. Their competency, dependability, and loyalty are a source of confidence to nerv- ous performers and a joy to harried producers. A more efficient and co-operaave crew than that which has served this first year in the new college auditorium cannot be imagined. Under the splendid leadership of George Renfro, tech- nician, a group of more or less inexperienced recruits have been moulded into a smooth working unit which has earned the gratitude of faculty and students and the commendation of all visiting groups who have used the stage. Members of the staff are Lawrence Lewis, Eugene Doerr, George Renfro, Clement Brooks, Jack Burke, and Alden Nye. Miss Eason is a blonde. The mirror tells of too much of this, some more of that, and just a little more there. Three floors of mirrors tell much more to many more. Here the thespian mumbles, shakes, and hopes while grease, lining, and powder all flow from the make-up box. A big night, and the atmosphere is electric as the interior of the house grows and climaxes in the overture, and the warning cur- tain buzzer demands of blond Miss Eason her presence on the set. More powder, a pin, and Miss Eason takes one last look — and is gone. The siring trio, the college players, and the other talent had their minutes and seconds. Checked here and aired over KFXM, the work gave all involved a chance to be, for a while, on the in of radio. Sound effects were by the crew, direction was by Dr. Allison, Miss Grow and Miss Pugh.

THE ASSEMBLIES COMMISSION OF THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS College assemblies are designed to provide an opportunity for stu- dents to come together as a unified group to enjoy cultural and intellect- ual experiences which are outside the areas covered by the regular offer- ings of the curriculum. The Committee, for a brief time under the leader- ship of Norman Lindsay as Commissioner of Assemblies, and later under that of David Williams, endeavored to plan a series of significant pro- grams varied in type and topic. Through co-operation with the Commissioner of Fine Arts, two pro- grams of student talent were presented. A lecture on Germany by Gladys Murphy Graham, who spent last year in Europe, and an inspirational address by President Elam Anderson of the University of Redlands brought speakers of note before the student body. In addition to the pro- grams in the field of the arts, described elsewhere. Doctor Purmort Eames of Scripps College was presented in a lecture-recital on Claude Debussy; the Man and the Musician through the generosity of the Y ' se Women. As the closing program of the year, a Recognition Assembly with Judge Charles J. O ' Connor of the Board of Trustees as speaker, will honor stu- dents who have won awards in the various extra-curricular activities. The curtain went up on a gathering of actors from Padua Hills Theatre, playing and singing a Mexican song. They were met by an en- thusiastic hand from the assembled students. Senorita Hilda Ramirez, mistress of ceremonies, introduced a young man who sang one of those pensively wistful Mexican love songs, which made the audience sigh dreamily. The song was followed by a picturesque native dance. The program was a combination of songs and dances typical of Mexico. The high spot of the program was the dance of the Little Old Men, native to one of the lower states. Four young men, bent almost double and wearing grotesque paper masks, danced the intricate steps to fast music. The program closed with the Jarabe , the Mexican national dance. The subdued strains of Schubert ' s Ave Maria drifted down through the auditorium; then the age-old story of Christmas began. Maurice Evans told the tale slowly in all its heart-stirring beauty and simplicity. For 62 Y 2z [rryn « ry -vo-r - - (PC a moment afterward, when the tale was done, the audience was silent. Upon the stage was hung a slender silver cross; and as all eyes were turned upon it, the choir softly began to sing Christmas carols, O Bon Jesu and The Song of the Nightin- gale. The merry melodies of Good King Wenceslaus and God Rest You, Merry Gen- tlemen rang out across the auditorium as Vir- ginia Galloway, Marjorie Kelley, Brooks Miller, and Sam Moomau gladly serenaded the Christmas spirit. Silent night, Holy night. All is calm; All is bright — the serene, resonant voice of Virginia Galloway sang the most perfect of all the Christmas songs Silent Night . Then, in the ensuing hush. La Rue Eason came out upon the stage to tell the tale of The Other Wise Man, who spent his life in search of Christ, all un- knowing that he already carried Him within his heart. The Christmas assembly was over, but it was a more than usually quiet audience that slowly left the seats and turned reluctantly toward the doors. In typically colorful and expressive costumes a troupe of dancers under the direction of Miss Norma Gould presented one of the most un- usual and enjoyable assembly programs of the year. The numbers presented varied greatly in character, ranging from the charming and light hearted April Showers, danced by Eleanor Gleason, to the dramatic and symbolic protest against the cruelty and futility of war, com- posed and danced by Ann Findon. Other members of the troupe were Helen Lucas and Anastine Howell; Vera Gay was at the piano. In presenting the national dances of various countries, the object of the dancers. Miss Gould explained to the audience, was to interpret the dominant moods and characteristics of those countries. The program opened with two early French dances, performed with the quaint grace and dignity of that period. In sharp con- tract, an exotic ritual of an Oriental goddess followed. A Spanish dance, a gypsy dance, and a typical dance of Roumania portrayed the character of these people — the rebellious gaiety and melancholy mood of the gypsies, the carefree joy of the Spanish, and the Rou- manian ' s child-like enjoyment of strenuous movement. The program closed with a dance typical of the mystical, pagan religion of Africa; the black and scarlet costumes of the dancers in- tensified the mood of magic and mystery ex- pressed in the dance. 63 A firm hand shake — a sincere greeting — a refined temperament. This is a student ' s first impression of Dean Yost, Stanford ' s dainty Dean of Women. One would not characterize her as being motherly, or suave , but rather as a combi- nation of the two, plus a progressive attitude and a high degree of cultural restraint which is readily apparent. As she appeared before the women stu- dents, all were impressed by her pleasant voice. Her manner of speaking was as simple, and yet as profound, as her personality. Her main purpose was to illustrate that girls enter- ing any college as juniors instead of freshmen (after having had two years of junior college) have equal advantages, if not greater ones, in social and scholastic attainments. Mrs. Irene T. Heineman, Assistant State Su- pervisor of Public Instruction, a gracious per- sonality and a lovely lady, visited the Junior College campus on March first. This dignified white-haired woman, with her smiling poise and her quick laughter, gave advice to the women students of the campus about the open- ings in the business and professional life upon which they are soon to embark. The girls found Mrs. Heineman easy -to talk with and a pleas- ure to know. She possesses a keen sense of humor coupled with a broad intellectual view of the problems of youth. That precise moment when the speaker ' s in troduction has whipped up applause was ig- nored very much by the craftsman with a job to do; Malvina Hofiman had entered too soon. She was no sooner on than we of the audi- ence could settle back and meet a very human celebrity. Her first minutes of words made felt an immense respect for her art, a respect that required no conscious footnoting of her personality. It was the very naturalness and logic of direct approach that at once comfort- ably welded her audience to her every word Later in the green room we could meet an- other Malvina Hoffman. There, she was not the reigning queen that her fame might have made of another. Her sense of humor kept her from any pedestal. She was enjoying herself; she was completely human. 64 ' ' h( .a - -- y - y t C . 2 ' - - -- ' f ;jfe %- --;?5;= €V -: c Ar ' A t «At?ui- ' - ' -i ' ' C- « - C J ig-f - %fe ' ,a ' € . ft -fe. - . o R E N S C S THE FORENSICS COMMISSION OF THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS urns, Voce, Chambers, Mills, Skousen, Moses, Stadtmai III ' The 1939 debate team, composed of Linn Moses, Earl Stadtman, Cur- tis Burns, and Betty Lois Chambers, completed a successful schedule of contests for the year. Both Linn Moses and Earl Stadtman were members from last year ' s debate team; Curtis Burns and Betty Lois Chambers were new additions from among the freshmen. Judged on the basis of three conference debates, the junior college team tied with Pomona for second place for conference honors. Although the team won no great honors, its members showed capa- bility as orators. The coaching of the team was in the hands of Mr. A. R. Truscott, who has sponsored and coached all public speaking events of the San Bernardino Valley Junior College. The year ' s schedule included meets at Ontario, Bakersfield, Fullerton, Los Angeles, Santa Ana, Pasa- dena, and Pomona. Alfred Voce and Marjorie Mills emerged victorious from a contest staged by the public speaking class to determine representatives of the junior college in the various oratorical contests in which the college com- petes. Among those students who participated in the elimination contest of the class were Solimondi Coricelli, Pauline Everett, William Kennedy, Clyde Madden, Marjorie Mills, Robert Thrall, and Alfred Voce. As a result of their winning the contest, Alfred Voce and Mariorie Mills, acting as the college ' s representatives, competed in the Kneeland Contest at Pomona College and at the Eastern Conference at San Bernar- dino. Mr. Voce ' s speech topic was Policy of Isolation and Miss Mill ' s was Dangers of Union. Rita Skousen and Linn Moses took part in an extemporaneous con- test held at Santa Ana last year. Mr. Moses has participated in many ex- tempore contests this year and won second place at a Bakersfield tourna- ment in November. Mr. A. R. Truscott served in the capacity of coach of the orators. 66 c VLu - :: zxo - t - ru - AJ- a . ' ' - .

ALMOST ANY THURSDAY MORNING Gathered around the tables in room A- 18, their brows furrowed in thought, were the staff writers for the Junior Quod. Suddenly a voice broke the silence as Barbara Sackett said, Do you suppose that Mr. Truscott would have the material on the debaters yet? Notify them that tomorrow night is the deadline, and if we don ' t have it by then, the page will be left blank; that ought to bring it in, was Doctor Allison ' s reply. Silence reigned again as Miss Sackett left to deliver her message and the rest of the staff returned to their writing. This time it was Doctor Allison who broke the silence as she turned to Jim Verdieck and said Mr. Verdieck, how are you coming with your sports section? I have the football and basketball sections finished; but until the track meets are over, I can ' t do anything with that group. By the way. Doctor Allison, have you gotten track of that Riverside game story that disappeared? Yes, I have it now. The typist had simply forgotten to send it back to me. Now, Miss Kemp and Miss Berry, here are some articles back from the readers. Will you go ahead and clean them up so they will be ready for a final typing. Yes, Mr. Harder. Here ' s the copy on Fanny ' s First Play. Do you think the typist will be able to read it? Yes, that will be fine. Now, let me see. Miss Mauck, this article has to be cut, and 1 think you ' re best able to do it. If you ' ll do that now? Miss O ' Hern is getting material for her assignment now. Miss Wilson, you ' re working on the Y ' se Women Valentine Dance? Mr. Henigman, do you think you could take the short article on the Building and Grounds Men? . . . That ' s fine. Mr. Nye and Mr. Day, you each have an assign- ment, haven ' t you? Everybody seems to have some work, but I ' ll just check this dummy to see if we ' ve forgetten anything. Once again silence reigned as the staff writers worked feverishly to meet the deadline. AS THEY COME AND CO Dean Allison, do you know whose face this is? I ' ve identified all the rest in this picture, but I ' ve nearly torn my hair to place this boy. If you can just tell who he is. . . . Let me see, Lois. Oh, yes, that ' s Donald Wahlen. You should recognize your co-worker, the Associate Art Editor. Be sure to spell his name correctly. I ' ve read no less than four variations in the annual copy, so far. W-a-h-1-e-n. Thank you very much. It ' s a relief to get this picture ou! of the way. Now I ' d better dash on over to the Library. The annual staff is to have its picture taken this afternoon. Yes, I was going in a little while, but won ' t you sit down for a minute? Jeanne said she ' d come in and decide which picture of the audilorium she wants to use. I imagine she ' d like to have you see them. At this moment, Norman Lindsay rushes into the office looking more distraught than usual and begins his oft-repeated complaint. 1 just spoke to Mr. Nye, Dean Allison, and he says that he needs fifteen dollars for more films. We ' re already ten dollars over the budget. What shall I do about the requisitions? This doleful tale holds no horror for Doctor Allison. She had heard this story many times before. She closes her eyes for a moment and then smiles as she notices Norman ' s harassed expression. I don ' t have anything to do with requisitions; Mr. Christopher is the Financial Adviser, Norman. But if I were you, I wouldn ' t speak too harshly to Mr. Nye, at least not until after he ' s taken the annual staff picture. You don ' t want your picture omitted, do you? Well, no. As business manager of that renowned publication, the Junior Quad, I should say no. But we really are going to have to start cu tting corners somewhere. The budget can ' t be stretched a penny more. Good afternoon. Doctor Allison, and you, too, Lois. What was Norman so upsei about? He passed me in the hall just now, and he didn ' t even speak to me. Hello, Miss Beswetherick. He ' s worried about his requisitions, as usual. I imagine he ' ll get it straightened out. Now, have you decided on the picture you prefer? Miss Phelps likes this one. Yes, I believe that is the best one. Perhaps we ' d better hurry out to the Library steps. Pat has another picture yet to take this afternoon. She ' ll be getting nervous if we ' re late. Now if you will arrange yourselves artistically on the steps. There, we ' ll finish this quickly. Nye ' s schedule has worked out beautifully, remarks Eugene Harder, Fine Arts Commissioner. Alden comes out from under the black cape of the camera long enough to ask Pat Lamb, who is busily posing the group, When do I take the next picture? This afternoon at three-thirty, Alden, Pat replies. I wonder what is keeping Louise. She said that she would be down as soon as she spoke to Miss Jacobson about the line drawings. Oh, yes, here she comes. Hello, there — if you ' ll stand over there, please. All right, Alden. That ' s all, folks. As the group scalters and each one goes his busy way, Nye and one member still stand on the steps. A perplexed frown comes between her eyes, and she is heard to mumble, Such nicely combed hair — pretty wave, too — can ' t be Linn Moses. Hmm, whose face is this? 69 THE WARWHOOP ck row: Edgeworth, Cooper, Anderson, De Priest, LancasUr, KnV Day. Wilson, Froude Dodd Second row: Johnson. Leonard, Premacii, Campbell, andish, Sacked Front row: Bergman. Coie. !L , (Vj JJ - Streamlining was the keyword among the staff mem- bers of The Warwhoop this year. Under the direction of Mr. J. H. Walters, who substituted for Mrs. Glenn B. Merry- field during the first semester, the Warwhoop changed pro- gressively in layout and makeup. With Leland De Priest wielding the whip hand from the editor ' s desk, the staff was soon rounded into a working machine. A variety of stories has always been the aim of the Warwhoop, but this year the staff endeavored to raise the cultural rating of the stories by eliminating cheap gos- sip columns. Some adverse criticism was received, but the majority of the students appreciated the change. Full appreciation of the difficulty in pleasing the read- ers was realized by the members of the staff when they launched a campaign to give the students what they should read and still please these readers ' tastes. Whether they accomplished their purpose or not is a matter of controversy. A full calendar of extra-curricular activities further en- hanced the value of the year ' s work. In addition to attend- ance at a convention in Santa Barbara, by those of the class who were also members of the Beta Phi Gamma, a second convention was held at Chaffey Junior College, where dele- gates to the annual Southern California Press Conference convened. Those students who were especially active in journal- ism work included: Leland De Priest, Phillip Lancaster, Even Evensen, John Coie, Rynard Bergman, Bob Dodder, Jean Froude, Maryann Johnson, Mary Lee Knox, Harry Henig- man, Louise Campbell, and Sally Lou Wilson. Bergman, R. Johnson, M. Christopher. C, i th i - y . 6 . jL u - ,r i a. . FROM THE INSIDE LOOKING OUT Clamoring students gathered at the door of The Warwhoop office each Friday afternoon were better payment to the members of the staff this year than the grades which the instructors distributed. The staff members on The Warwhoop have been fortunate, inasmuch as they have had readers who have appreciated their efforts and have been extremely helpful in supplying news leads. An active school year, both socially and athletically, has made the filling of The Warwhoop columns a comparatively easy matter. In the majority of the issues, the chief problem has been to decide the relative importance of the activities, as a surplus of news necessitated the elimi- nation of the less important items. With the cooperation of the Colton Courier, the editorial staff of this year ' s paper introduced a new format to The Warwhoop. A complete line of the latest Sans Serif type was purchased by the Courier, and it was then possible to take the first steps on the road to the streamlined publication. This change in style on the paper was an effort to keep abreast of the rising tide of streamlining which has been current in the junior colleges of Southern California. Expert assistance was given the students issuing The Warwhoop during the first semester by Mr. J. H. Walters, who filled the position of Mrs. Glenn B. Merryfield during the latter ' s leave of absence. Mrs. Merry- field, upon her return from London, where she spent her time studying, did an equally fine job in directing the publication during the second semester. FROM THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN There is a mad scramble on Friday noon, and then you know that The Warwhoop is out. Lying on the lawn, sitting in cars, or in the cafe- teria, or in the lounges, the students bolt down sandwiches and school news simultaneously. Is it editorial comment, humor, book reviews, or sports stories that you prefer? Read The Warwhoop. There is something for everyone. Whether you are a member of the school ' s intelligentsia or a cinch- sender ' s delight, read The Warwhoop and keep informed on all the news every (well, almost every) Friday noon. Caustic gossip is censored; so no longer need you pale with fear as you scan the very popular peek-a-boo column. A handy space is dedicated to a school calendar, thereby letting your overworked memory attend more strictly to your program of study. Nothing stays the same; you can prove it by one glance at this year ' s Warwhoop. Streamlining has arrived at S. B. V. J. C. with the reor- ganization of The Warwhoop column arrangement. You may witness genuine appreciation by listening to the sly chuckles, the relieved sighs, or the exclamations among the hoi poloi, faculty, or administration as they bury their noses in the biggest little paper of all.

Merryfield, G. George Brandow carried the gavel for the Beta Phi Gamma group during the first semester of this year. He was ably assisted by Leland De Priest as vice-president and Phillip Lancaster as secretary-trasurer. The high point of an active year ' s program was the annual Beta Phi Gamma convention, which was held this year at Santa Barbara and was. sponsored by the Santa Barbara State College. Honors were won m- n open writers ' tournament by Phillip Lancaster and Theodore Da C who placed second and third respectively. Those attending from the San Bernardino Valley Junior College in- cluded Mr. J. H. Walters, journalism instructor, Leland De Priest, Maryann Johnson, Theodore Day, Louise Campbell, Rynard Bergman, Sally Lou Wilson, Phillip Lancaster, and John Coie. During the second semester, the club leadership was shifted to the shoulders of Phillip Lancaster; Leland De Priest retained his position as vice-president; and Maryann Johnson took over the duties of secretary- treasurer. Upon the resumption of her teaching duties, Mrs. Glenn B. Merry- field took over advisory reins of the group during the second semester and continued her activities as national secretary for the organization. The entire active membership for the year included George Brandow, Leland De Priest, Phillip Lancaster, Maryann Johnson, Theodore Day, Rynard Bergman, Louise Campbell, Sally Wilson, John Coie, and Jean Froude. Jy V ' p 72 U p ' j i s g: ENCINEERINC ' CLUB Heath. Crowley. Nolan. Edwards, Siml-h, Hepburn, dugh, Doerr, Lyile, Quinley, Obri, Fluter, Tanakd. Christopherson, Fraiee. Nichols. In keeping with its purpose of acquainting members with a variety of engineering fields, the Engineering Society enjoyed a year enlivened by monthly programs and field excursions. Aided and counselled by Mr. Edward B. Heath, the group ingeniously devised to garner practical knowledge and fellowship at the same time. The Society was success- fully engineered for the first semester by Donald Everett, president; Elvin Lytle, vice-president; Gordon Waugh, secretary-treasurer; Bob Whitlow, program chairman; and David Mooney, excursion chairman. At the mid-year elections, the Engineers mixed several new elements in the election test tube and found a new precipitation of Gordon Waugh, president; Elvin Lytle, vice-president; Eugene Doerr, secretary-treasurer; John Quinley, program chairman; and Bill Thompson, excursion chair- man. In their monthly meetings, the Society was addressed by local speakers, who spoke to the group on a variety of engineering subjects. Outstanding among these meetings was the presentation by the General Electric Company of two scientific motion picture reels, Meters, and The Spiral-Core Transformer. Throughout the year the Engineers engineered themselves through many field excursions. In San Bernardino, the Society enjoyed exami- nations of the Sun Offices, the Santa Fe Shops, and the Pacific Electric substation. The vicinity of Los Angeles was the scene of several all-day excursions, chief among them being the General Motors Assembly, Doug- las Aircraft Company, the Shell Oil Refinery, the Long Beach Edison Steam Plant, the KNX radio transmitter at Torrance, and the U. S. Electric Motors. Two visits of especial interest were those to Parker Dam and the Metropolitan Aqueduct Pumping stations. The Engineering Society plans to become affiliated with the Amer- ican Associations of Engineers, a national organization. 74 1 THE NTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Under the auspices of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, the International Relations Club with Mr. Ellis L. Spackman as sponsor, Herbert Gardner as chairman, and Louise Campbell as secre- tary, meets once each month to discuss world affairs. On October 8, 1938, there was a conference held at the Univer- sity of Southern California. Foreign affairs forums were held where the students expressed their views. Students attending from the San Ber- nardino group were Louise Campbell, Jean Gunvordahl, Herbert Gard- ner, and Richard Glenn. November fourth and fifth, a second conference was held at the Uni- versity of Southern California. At this meeting, which was an open forum of ideas for club management, the leaders gained many ideas used in reorganizing the club. The members of the local group who attended were Mr. Ellis Spackman, Herbert Gardner, Louise Campbell, Rita Skou- sen, Leland De Priest, and Jack Landes. During the first semester, dmner meetings were held in the Social Hall on the second Tuesday of each month. The second semester, in an attempt to get a larger crowd, the dinner meetings were eliminated, and the group gathered in one of the lounges. At some meetings, the student group discussed world affairs; at others, prominent people of the valley district spoke to the students. At the meeting held on November eleventh, the speaker was Clyde Martin, president of the Redlands group and alumnus of the San Bernar- dino Valley Junior College. He devoted his time to telling the group of the new methods being used by the Redlands group, who followed an outline prepared by the sponsor. Individual students prepared discus- sions and led the meetings. One of the most outstanding meetings of the year was held Decem- ber thirteenth, with Mr. Cornelius De Bakcsy speaking on the Balkan States. The second semester began with a meeting in the women ' s lounge on February fourteenth. Mrs. Glenn B. Merryfield, of the college faculty, who had just returned from abroad, spoke. She carried the members with her on a trip wherein they saw the great nations of the world during the recent crisis. The members heard later in the year Mr. and Mrs. Earl Cranston and Miss Mary Richardson. 75 THE JUNIOR LIONS ck row: Soble, Strange, Rowe, Ferryman, Fuller, Bowen, Jenkins, Hurley, Weaver, Hunting. Second row: Olin, Evensen, Hardin. Thompson, Van Slyke. Front row: Sarratt, Cline. Wiest. Lane. IP ' One of the oldest, most respected organizations on today ' s campus, the Junior Lions Club, has grown and developed through the years with the college itself. Founded originally as a young men ' s social group boasting but eight members, the Lions, today composed of some thirty men, comprise the leading social and service unit. Unlike most other campus groups, the Lions, .throughout the entire history of the club, have preserved a consistent identity. In spite of an ever changing membership, the ideals and the traditions of the group, and the tastes and the very personalities of the members themselves are all quite unchanged from those of the initial group. It has, indeed, been often remarked that it is actually possible to point out today, for each member of that original charter group, a corresponding personality in today ' s membership. At that first meeting, a complete unanimity of mind and spirit was apparent. Today, that same esprit de corps is the unify- ing element in all Lion ' s activities. During this past year, the Lions have been particularly active as a service group. Serving as ushers in the new campus auditorium, pro- viding football programs for all home games, and supplying Christmas and Thanksgiving baskets for needy families constitute a few of the service activities of the group. On the social side of the ledger are the regular dinner and business meetings, and also several joint meetings, both with the Senior Lions and with the Valkyries, the off-campus sister club to the Lions. Numerous dances, men ' s socials, and attendance en masse at the annual state con- vention, have also been an important part of the social program. Not soon to be forgotten, especially by the initiates, are the amusing Lions ' initiations and the traditional Hell-Week, the latter providing five days of farcical atmosphere on the campus each semester. This year the group has been capably led by two prominent stu- dents. Paul Van Slyke served as president throughout the first semester, and Thayer Cline was elected executive officer for the second. Ellis Spackman, the beloved and able advisor to the members, has also been active throughout the year in articulating with the senior group, and with the administrataion of the college. 76 THE NURSES ' CLUB Typifying the gracious and purposeful spirit of the Nurses ' Club is their sponsor, Gabrielle Mulvane. Under her supervision, the officers have again this year enabled the organization to contribute much both to a full scicial and complete educational realization of pre-nursing training. It has been a pleasure for President Marie Wallace and Vice-President Mildred Aldrich to present Mrs. E. Q. Sullvan who entertained as well as instructed. Halloween and Christmas parties, a New Year ' s dance, and numerous programs have marched across the months in a succession of pleasant occasions. But not without more serious activities has another year been completed. The members sponsored a visitation day for all county high schools and another day in which pre-nursing students of the college were shown through the hospital. Secretary - Treasurer Winifred Shay watched, with satisfaction, the fund which will purchase a phonograph attachment for the hospital radio increase steadily by vir- tue of the candy sales. Continuing their goal to broaden their social affiliations and to make their community service each year more effective, the student nurses of the San Bernardino Valley Junior College Division of Nursing Education have well earned the right to close the year with the satisfaction of see- ing effort well directed to effect worthy attainments. 11 THE J- COLLEGE y tf Through membership in the College Y , every man attending the San Bernardino Valley Junior College has an opportunity to participate in the nation-wide organization, Young Men ' s Christian Association. The purpose of the organization is to establish a feeling of friendship among the men of the college. Under the capable guidance of Mr. Edward B. Heath, the club carries on many activities and discussions. The discussions are strictly informal and unhampered by any censorship. Members are taken in through a membership committee which consists of the cabinet. Regular meetings are held the second and fourth Wednesdays of each month and number about eight a semester. During the first semes- ter of the current college year, the club had as speakers Professor Edgar B. Van Osdel of Redlands, Dr. Irwin A. Engle of San Bernardino, Dr. Charles J. Clock of Redlands, and W. Burnet Easton, Junior Secretary of Southwest Field Council of the Young Men ' s Christian Association. Dur- ing the second semester, the men discussed such vital problems as What Do Students Get Out of College , Psychology and Religion , Techniques of Democracy , The Student and World Peace , and What to Do About the Race Problem . The active program of the year was inaugurated and carried for- ward by the cabinet which included Charles Lloyd, president; Curtis Burns, vice-president; Hector Tilden, secretary-treasurer; Bill Kennedy, public relations chairman; Herbert Gardner, field council chairman; Sam Kassel, dinner chairman; Ted ay, pul Wfity chairman; and John Work- man, social chairman. 78 .

The Young Women ' s Christian Association is a world-wide organi- zation of women and girls. Its purpose is to advance the physical, social, intellectual, moral, and spiritual interests of young women, and to be an agency for social progress in local communities and in national life. The San Bernardino Valley Junior College makes it possible for the young women of the college to participate in this worthwhile organiza- tion. Under the capable guidance of Doctor Grace Baumgartner, the club adviser, there are activities carried on which appeal to both the young women and the young men of the college. The officers of the Y ' se Women are chosen with special care and with consideration of their capability and personality. Included among the officers are Mary Lorraine Cunningham as president, Rita Skousen as vice-president, Elizabeth Welton as secretary, and Barbara Tilson as treasurer. Some of the important activities which were carried on during the year were the teas, dinners, joint dinner meetings. Fathers ' night. Moth- ers ' night, and men ' s night. Mrs. Irene T. Heineman, Judge Ben F. Warm- er, and Dean Frank B, Lindsay were among the speakers who appeared on the programs. Other sophomore and freshman officers of the 1938-1939 year were Jean Gunvordahl, program chairman; Jeanne Beswetherick, publicity chairman; Frances Melendrez, social chairman; Margaret Jane Wright, international relations chairman; Marjorie Love, welfare chairman; La- vonne Blomquist, worship chairman; Margaret Hirtzel, pianist; and Beatrice Teagarden, music chairman.

The oificers, elected at the annual Lettermen ' s Banquet, were Jim Verdieck, president; Lome Dewar, vice-president; Bill Thompson, secre- tary-treasurer; and Owen Walker, sergeant-at-arms. A number of social activities were enioyed by members of the club In October, in conjunction with the W.A.A., the Lettermen held a s ' eak bake at the home of Coach Art Schaefer, and the two oroanizations again in November had a joint skating party. Two week-end mountain parties to take advantage of the winter sports were conducted exclu- sively for the lettermen. Both week-ends were spent at Isldo Lodge, on the North Shore of Lake Arrowhead, the first being during December 17-18, and the second coming on January 14-15. The last social activity was the Presidents ' Party, the heads of the Lettermen and the W.A.A. — Jim Verdieck and Dorothy Leppard, respec- tively — together giving a skating oarty and a pot-luck supper for the members of both organizations. This year is the first that an affair of this kind has been attempted, and it is hoped that it may become an annual affair. Aside from the social activities, the Lettermen did a great deal toward turning their room in the gym into a sort of Who ' s Who ' s in Athletics room by bringing all the track and field records up to date, listing the Indian athletes who made all-conference teams, and taking care of the trophies and room in general. Early in the year the room was made exclusive for Lettermen. In addition to taking care of the Lettermen ' s Room, the organization sponsored two non-lettermen ' s playdays, one in November and the other in May. Competition was between the freshman and sophomore classes, with the Lettermen coaching the non-lettermen in various sports, such as basketball, softball, track and field, and touch football. 84 85 Schaeier — lord of all that which one sees to the east of the administration building han- dles the track and gymnastic teams. Smythe — coach of the football, basketball, and baseball teams — fortunate that his teams regularly func- tion on more cylinders than his model A does. Beattie — non-playing star-gazing coach of the tennis team — known to have his team compete only when Venus is in ascension, whereby the Braves may utilize Venus ' s arm strength for stroking power. Lamb — coach of the golf team — probably the only practicing golf player to handle a team — tees off (putts) around the first fairway, then ignites one of his his best cigars (2 for 5c). Sam Strano — Harold Webster — football managers — took care of players (beg your pardon) and equipment — had trouble in dis- tinguishing players from tackling dummy. Mal- colm Collins — basketball orderly — distributed suits — colossal appetite followed away-from- home games. Jimmy Polk — track caliph — administered to spikemen — phobia of dropping shot-put on big toe. David Handke — tennis Manager — ventured abroad with netmen — en- joyed the racket . Dick Henry — lieutenant to baseball mentor — trainer and bat boy. Eligio Zanone — gymnastic team major-domo — the student on the parallel bars. Bobby Thrall — mastered the yell leaders, now is mastered at home himself — worked as hard as the team trying to get the crowd to show some pep and YELL! Mabel Wharton — the yell is the thing, so come on gang, give! — her megaphone worked overtime warning the spectators to let go with Yea, San Bernardino! Mary Lee Knox — dashed before the grandstand and pleaded for bigger and better yells — watched the others over her shoulder as they moved together leading the Locomotive. 86 OFF THE RECORD The Indians ' 1938 debut against the Glen- dale Vaqueros was a successful and an im- pressive one that was witnessed by a stadium of fans who were prejudiced against the suc- cessor of the 1937 Eastern Conference cham- pions. The passing that was later to establish the Indians as a constant scoring threat played but a minor role in the 19 to 6 victory. A twelve-game winning streak was termi- nated by Pasadena Junior College when they defeated the Indians 39 to 26 in a wild game in which ten touchdowns were scored. San Bernardino ' s passing was tops, thereby en- abling the Indians to score four times via the air. John Thompson ' s three touchdowns aided the cause for San Bernardino against Pasa- dena ' s Black Plague, Jackie Robinson, who averaged eight yards per try. San Bernardino completed its pre-season schedule with a 19 to 12 victory over Long Beach Junior College. The Indian passing, now firmly established as a scoring threat, account- ed for two scores. The Vikings rallied in the fourth quarter and scored twice — once on a blocked kick and again on a pass. The passing game worked beautifully in the San Mateo game — for San Mateo. The Indians chalked up seventeen first downs to three for the Bulldogs, but the final score read San Ma- teo 12 — San Bernardino 7. The Braves marched eighty yards in two plays for their only score. The Indians traveled by way of the Grand Canyon to Phoenix, Arizona where they cli- maxed a championship season with a 43 to victory over the Phoenix Bears. Mineo, Costas, Bangle, and McAnulty played the leading roles in the game in which the entire squad of thirty-s(;ven players saw action. ' h i tm First row: Kruegar, Engel, Lorenio. Coreccelli.

Finney. 87 ta ON THE RECORD CITRUS The Indians in their Eastern Conference debut did considerable dancing and campfire singing before any thought was given to the ac- complishment of the battle at hand. For three drab periods of mediocre football, the Indians were content to protect th eir six points scored in the initial period by Fisher on a thirty-two-yard dash through the Citrus secondary. The Citrus Owls made but one scoring threat, and that came during the third quarter through a series of penalties and passes, which en- abled the Owls to march to the Indian two-yard line where they were held for downs. At the start of the fourth quarter, a decision by the referee, who deprived the Braves of a scalp, started the Indians on a scoring splurge, which continued throughout the final period. Before the gun sounded signifying the end of the skirmish, points from three touchdowns, a like number of conversions, and a safety had been added to the previous score, thus making the final count San Bernardino 29 — Citrus 0. The safety came as a result of a Citrus kick being blocked by San Bernardino ' s center, Jim Verdieck. The first touchdown in the fourth quarter was on a twenty-seven-yard pass from Holmes to Trust. The second score was made on a pass from Finney to Holmes after a thirty- four-yard gain had been registered by John Thompson. McAnulty car- ried the ball across from the four-yard marker for the final tally. Verdieck converted the extra point in the first two cases, and Charles Hunting made a diving catch of a pass for the third conversion. •Mr-. ON THE RECORD POMONA The championship bound Indians climbed a step nearer the Orange Empire crown when the Pomona Cossacks were defeated before a crowd of displeased Pomona partisans, who were slightly dampened by intermittent showers. The Indians played against Lady Luck and the scrappiest team that was entered in competition in the Eastern Conference during the 1938 football season. San Bernardino teams under the tutelage of Coach Smythe have for several years had difficulty winning their fifth game of the season. The Pomona team, though unaware of the Smythe fifth game jinx, played seemingly inspired football for sixty minutes. The Pony backfield of Pomona, led by Bud Grey, continually broke up the Indian passing attack, which was so detrimental to other teams faced by the Indians. The Cossacks stopped the vaunted San Bernardino aerial attack cold — almost. Only two of eleven passes were completed, although the Indians rolled up twelve first downs to five for the Red Raiders. Pomona took the ball on the Indian twenty-nine-yard line in the first quarter on a returned kick, but this was the only time that the Pomona team was within the thirty-yard marker. San Bernardino ' s score came during the waning minutes of the game on a pass from Finney to Thompson which was disputed by one referee, one coach, one team, and several hundred Pomona partisans. i% ON THE RECORD RIVERSIDE Returning to their home grounds after the invasion of Pomona, the Indians faced their cross-river rivals, the Riverside Bengals. The game, traditionally as v ild as good, was played before an overflowing stadium of the townspeople. The Indians scored but once, and that came during the second quarter as the climax of three previous passes, which had netted the Braves eighty-four yards. Throughout the contest, the Bengals remained a threat through the incessant pounding of the Brave line by the Riverside backs and lengthy punts of Boyd. In the fourth quarter, the Bengals penetrated deeply into the Indian territory on a long run by Speltz, which placed the ball on the twenty-yard line with but time for one play. Coach Mortensen, knowing that only a pass could save the cause for Riverside, inserted Hovis Bess, a sprinter of renown, into the Bengal lineup with the thought of having Bess out-distance the Indian secondary, thereby being in posi- tion to catch a pass for he all-important touchdown. As the last play developed, Bess dashed to the far corner of the end zone to which the ball was thrown by Speltz. A gasp went up from the throng in the stadium; Bess had been left unguarded, and the ball was descending to his outstretched arms. As the ball descended a blue helmeted Indian, Ernie McAnulty, sliced in to intercept the ball and return it to mid-field, thus ending for 1938 Riverside ' s chance for a football victory over the Indians. 90 ON THE RECORD SANTA ANA The week of the fourth conference game was one of excitement and expectation, as the two teams that had tied twice during 1937 were meet- ing for the third game of the series. Local students en masse followed the team to the Santa Ana Municipal Bowl, which was filled to capacity by game time. Yes, the third meeting was a charm for the Indians. The game was marked by a Santa Ana drive in the first quarter, but it was halted on a pass interception by Finney, who returned the ball to mid-field. In the second quarter, the Indian passing attack func- tioned twice; hence the Indians were able to score twice and convert once, making the half-time score 13 to 0. Throughout the second half, the game was marked by the out- standing defensive play of both teams. Santa Ana in the fourth quarter, led by Saunders and Hienish, marched to the Indian three-yard line. The Indians put up a goal-line stand and took possession of the ball on the two-yard line. Holmes, kicking from behind his own goal-line, kicked one of his towering fifty- yard punts down field, thereby ending for 1938 any chance that Santa Ana had of defeating the Indians on the gridiron. When the Braves appeared in a set of new silver grey jerseys in place of the white jerseys used in previous games, a new precedent was established by a Smythe-coached team. In the past, a team, coached by Douglas (Bet-a-Milkshake) Smythe, has worn the same set of jerseys throughout the season, thus eliminating any chance that Lady Luck might have for shifting her affections. 91 « - V 5 m% McAnulty, E. Mineo, B. Pyeat), N. Reynolds, A. ON THE RECORD s FULLERTON The Braves, smarting from the wounds inflicted by the 12 to 7 defeat handed them by San Mateo Junior College, swept over and through the Fullerton Junior College Hornets before a capacity crowd of frost-bitten spectators. The Indians had previously depended upon a star-studded passing attack featuring the passing of Hal Finney and the receiving of Thomp- son, Trust, Holmes, and Doake to score their points; in the Hornet game a comple:e reversal of previous games was displayed. The Braves, sparked by the hard running of Finney, Fisher, and Holmes, scored once in the first quarter on a line plunge, twice in the second quarter on a seven-yard jaunt by Finney and on a seventeen-yard pass to Thompson, and again in the fourth quarter on a line plunge. Fullerton, though out-played, out-gained, and out-scored, was in the ball game for sixty minutes. In the third quarter, with the score 20 to against them, Hanney, the Hornet center, intercepted an Indian pass on the thirty-yard line and returned it the thirty yards to the Indian goal for a touchdown. This touchdown was the first that had been scored against the Indians in their Conference play. Jim Verdieck, captain and center for the Indians, kicked goal after three of the San Bernardino touchdowns. The music of the San Bernardino Swing Band failed for the first time to keep the spectators warm during the half-time period. Though the band gave forth its usual hot licks, the temperature was such that many fires were built by those feeling the effects of frost-bite. Snyder, G. Taple, D. Thompion. B. Thompson, J. 92 ON THE RECORD CHAFFEY Stymied by the rock-ribbed defense of Chaffey ' s durable Panthers, Son Bernardino called on Hal Finney and ten worn-out Indians in th e last six minutes of play to come from behind and score a 7-6 victory in a game that carried with it the Orange Empire Conference Championship. For the Indians, the game terminated a highly successful season of play among conference schools. Shaking off a third-quarter Chaffey touchdown, scored on a pass from Shoji to Flannes, the Indians fought back with a 73-yard march, which was interspersed with several spectacular passes and which ended when Hal Finney dived over the goal line with the tying points. The Indians then shifted into place kick formation with Doake over the ball, with Thompson, Johnson, Walker, Williams, Thompson, Trust, Alex- ander, and Holmes in their blocking positions, and with Finney and Ver- dieck in the kicking position. From this formation, the Indians attempted the conversion which meant that they would be either champions or just also rans . The result of that kick is now history, as the Indians were crowned champions of the Eastern Conference at the end of the game. The Panthers, previous to their touchdown drive, drove to the In- dians ' one-foot line in the second quarter aided by Chaffey ' s captain, Les Terry, who was the leading ground gainer of the game with eighty- two net yards to his credit. As the gun sounded ending the game, the overflow crowd of 8,000 fans streamed out upon the field to rip up goal posts and carry off whatever spoils of victory could be found. Wa 93 ON THE RECORD POMONA Opening their Orange Empire Conference basketball season with a win over the Pomona Red Raiders after a brief preseason schedule against town teams, Santa Monica Junior College, and University of Redlands, the Indians displayed glimmers of championship quality. The Braves won this first game without the services of their all- conference guard and captain, Ralph Reynolds; however, the team that answered the referee ' s starting whistle had three returning lettermen on it. John Costas from Santa Barbara and letterman Strano started at for- wards, letterman Hunting started at center, and lim Glass from San Ber- nardino and letterman Webster started at guards. The Indians set an early pace and held their lead throughout the game. The final score read 45-20; Hunting carried off scoring honors with ten points. SANTA ANA The Indians ' championship glimmer began smouldering, as if ready to burst into flames, when they turned back the Santa Ana Dons by a score of 38 to 34 on the Santa Ana court. The Braves were behind during most of the first half, but the half-time score, 18 to 17, was in favor of San Bernardino. After the intermission, San Bernar dino was never headed. The In- dians went into a slight lead early in the second half, largely as a result of the twelve points that Vic Fluter garnered during the period. Costas with twelve points, Reid of Santa Ana with ten points, and Hunting with eight points were the leading scorers. The victory enabled the Indians to keep their clean conference record. Costas, J. Reynolds, R. Webster, H. McKeniie, R. 94 ON THE RECORD FULLERTON The Indians were smouldering from their two previous wins as they took the court against the Fullerton Hornets, but the display of swishing ability which Captain Keesey and Stringbeon V hite of Fullerton ex- hibited was too much for the Braves. The Hornets came to San Bernardino with a twenty-six game winning streak; and in spite of the good brand of basketball played by the Indians, the Hornets left with a twenty-seven game winning streak. The Indians were benefited by the return of Captain Ralph Reynolds, who scored seven points. The starting line-up of Costas, Fluter, Verdieck, Captain Reynolds, and Hunting scored thirty-four points, but failed to match Ful- lerton ' s forty-two. aiRus After watching the Fullerton Hornets swish the ball with such effort- less ease, the Indians must have come to the conclusion that a winning team was the one which scored the most points, because the Indians were indeed in the swishing class on the night of the Citrus Junior Col- lege game. At the end of forty minutes of activity, the Braves were in possession of sixty-five points, while the Owls were able to garner but thirty-nine. Forward Costas dropped twenty-nine points through the hoop for high scoring honors. The victory kept the Indians in a tie for second place with Riverside and Chaffey and gave them a chance to enter the cham- pionship play-offs against Fullerton. Glass. J. Lorenio, P. Verdieck. J. Hicks. E. 95 I ON THE RECORD CHAFFEY The Indians lost even their mathematical chance for second place in the conference standings when they lost their final game of the season to the Chaffey Panthers by a 41 to 37 count. Even the addition of Nuke Burton couldn ' t ward off the defeat, which left the Indians with three wins and three losses for conference play. The Panthers, led by Doll and White, were able to keep a few points in the lead of the Braves, who were led in scoring by Costas with eleven points. As a result of this win, Chaffey entered the play-off against the Fullerton Hornets, who won the title in a three-game series. RIVERSIDE When the Indians faced the Riverside Bengals with three wins and one loss marked on the ledger, they were in a favorable position to win the runner-up position in the conference ratings, but the Indians ' hopes were dealt a killing blow in the last forty seconds of the game when a Bengal forward, Jim Savage, sank his only field-goal of the evening to make the final score 28 to 27 — San Bernardino didn ' t have the 28. The Indians secured an early lead through the efforts of Hunting, who left the game with an ankle injury shortly after scoring three points. John Costas was so well guarded by Murillo, who was later selected as an all-conference guard, that the scoring honors were divided between Captain Reynolds and Verdieck with eight points each. 96 ON THE RECORD Hicks, Burton. Jo ares, Taylo t. Webster, nko, Walkei BASEBALL At the close of the basketball season, the baseball team was sum- moned by Coach Smythe to begin conditioning for the coming Eastern Conference competition in which six teams were entered. The Indians opened the season with six returning lettermen, and with the addition of several former prepsters. The team scheduled two games with the San Bernardino High School, which the Indians won by scores of 4 to 3 and 7 to 2. The Braves also defeated the University of Redlands 5 to 3 when Bill Linko, catcher, hit a home run in the seventh inning with two of his team-mates on base. The pitching in these first three games was divided among Sid Olin, a letterman, Ernie Nevares, Paul Taylor, and Ernie Hicks. The Indians opened the conference against Riverside, and were lead- ing by an 1 1 to 4 score in the fourth inning when a heavy rain caused the game to be postponed until the following Tuesday. At this later time, the Braves won by a 7 to 2 score. The second conference game against Po- mona resulted in an 8 to 2 loss. The Indians were able to hit, but were unable to hit in the pinches, although they out-hit the Red Raiders four- teen to twelve. Linko, with three singles, and Verdieck, with a triple and single, led the Indians at the plate. The Braves entered the victory circle again against the Santa Ana Dons when they won by a score of 8 to 5. Ralph Reynolds, with a season average of .400, led in the hitting with five singles, and Bill Jones hit a home run and a double. The fourth conference game, against Fullerton, ended in a 6 to 2 loss, which left the Indians with two wins and two losses at the time of publication. •: « b mr3r Linko, B. Olin, S. Manda, C.

Schaefer, issued warm-up suits and track shoes to all Indians interested in the ancient Olympian pastime. As the track athletes needed several weeks of light conditioning be- fore entering into actual competition, it was not until the second week in March that the Indians competed as a team against Chaffey Junior Col- lege. In this early season meet, neither the Braves nor the Panthers were able to register any outstanding performances. However, Chaffey won the meet by a score of 71 to 60. The Indians met Pomona in the second conference meet under the lights at Pomona, and it was not until the final event of the evening, the relay, that the Braves were able to win, 70 to 61. Bangle broke the school high-jump record with a jump of six feet and one inch; John Finan scored fourteen and one-fourth points. The Indians met the eventual conference champions, Fullerton, in the third meet, and were overwhelmed 106 to 26. Rozier earned San Bernar- dino ' s only victory, the shot-put. The Braves improved considerably over their previous efforts in the Santa Ana meet, but were defeated 69 to 62. Rozier broke his own school record when he put the shot 43 feet 10 inches. John Finan won the one hundred and two-twenty-yard dashes, and Bill Kelly placed second in three events. The Indians met the Riverside Ben- gals in the final conference dual meet and were subdued by a score of 98 ON THE RECORD 74 to 57. Riverside dominated in the sprints and middle distances, but San Bernardino was able to win five of the fifteen events. Captain Norman Rozier was second to Riverside ' s Smith, who, until Norman ' s fourth and final put, led with a mark of forty-five feet. Captain Rozier at this time broke his own school record with a heave of 45 feet y inch. Drawing a bye on the week preceding the conference finals, the In- dians met and defeated, by a sixteen-point margin, the San Diego State College Freshmen in a meet at San Diego. The relay team broke the school record of 3:30 with the time of 3:28.2, and Bangle also broke his school record with a jump of six feet, one and one-half inches. The Indi- ans entered the conference meet with a fifteen-man team composed of the following men: Morris Collins, Bill Kelly, John Finan, Pat Patterson, Bill Lyle, Jack Sterbentz, Jay Wallis, John Van Koevering, Norman Roz- ier, Lome Dewar, Vic Fluter, Bert Bangle, Ted Day, Wilfred Harris, and Neal Bowen. These men piled up a total of twenty-three points for fourth place in the final results. John Finan placed fourth in the 440-yard dash; Jack Sterbentz ran second in the two-mile; Norman Rozier placed second in the shot-put; Lome Dewar tied for first place in the pole-vault; Vic Fluter placed fifth in the javelin; Bert Bangle tied for first in the high- jump, and the team of Kelly, Bowen, Finan and Collins won the relay. These place winners at Chaffey went to the Southern California Junior College meet, and of these men. Bangle placed fifth in the high-jump; Rozier, fifth in the shot-put, and the relay team again broke the school record when they placed fifth in that event with the time 3:27.1. 99 ON THE RECORD TENNIS Coach George F. Beattie did not wait for the coming of spring to start his team on a training schedule, which was arranged by the team manager, David Handke, against schools throughout the southland. After classwork was resumed at the close of Christmas vacation, the racqueteers played their first match with the University of Redlands squad. This first match was followed by a series of home engagements against some of the strongest teams competing on an active basis among the valley squads. During February and March, the Indians encountered teams from San Bernardino High School, Long Beach, Compton Junior College, Colton High School, and Glendale Junior College. When the first round of matches was completed, the Braves during April played San Bernardino High School and Compton Junior College for the second time, and concluded the pre-season practice schedule. The Braves then settled down to defend their tent against the teams entered in the Orange Empire competition. Chaffey came first among the conference matches, but the Braves had a little trouble with their equip- ment — Chaffey won 13 to 6. The team was reorganized for the second conference match; the reorganization was definitely beneficial as Pomona was subdued 14 to 5. In the Pomona match, the team served-up with John Broomfield in the first singles position; co-captain Charles Wood played second singles; John Workman won the third singles; Norman Robinson downed his opponent in the fourth singles; Kay Hepburn and co-captain Jim Angelo won the first doubles, and the Evan Machen-Bob Whitlow com- bination won the second doubles match. With the same line-up, San Ber- nardino defeated Fullerton 1 3 to 6, thus giving the Braves two wins and one defeat at the time of publication. 100 I ON THE RECORD k row: Doerr, Zanone, Cooper, Tibbetts, Hopper; front row: Hawkins, Engel, Harbauer. GYM TEAM Because of inexperienced men and beginning materiai, Coach Art Schoefer ' s gym team made an inauspicious debut in its first activities. However, quietly developing in experience by means of prolonged re- hearsals, the team grew into a confident group which, having mastered the mechanics of trained muscles, will form a commendable nucleus for next year ' s team. In keeping with its purpose of stimulating local interest, the Gym Team gave a number of exh ibitions to organizations of the community. Exhibitions were presented in San Bernardino to the Masonic Lodge and to the DeMolay. Further programs were given at Colton High School, at Victorville, at Redlands, and for the Bloomington Chamber of Com- merce. Late in the spring the team was included in the annual exposi- tion of the college ' s prowess in physical education. Operations were concluded in a dual meet with the potent University of Southern Califor- nia freshmen. Members of the gym team who have participated regularly in the exhibitions are Captain Bob Cooper, Manager Eligio Zanone, and Eugene Doerr, Walter Engel, George Hopper, Charles Moore, Marvin Malkson Donald Hawkins, Donald Harbauer, Bill Swope, Elmo Tibbetts Russell Hosking, and Robert Plummer. Drills were graciously accompanied by pianist Marjorie Reeves. Without fanfare or publicity, the gym team has contributed widely toward benefiting the college, the performers, and the community at large. The team has served to establish contacts in such a way as to acquaint outside interests with the wide scope of junior college activities. For this reason the persevering members of the gym team merit especial commendation. l- l PLAY-DAY CONFERENCE With the theme song, Hold Tight, Hold Tight, a noisy group of junior college Braves boarded a bus and journeyed away from the reservation for a day of heap run, heap fun at the annual confer- ence non-letterman play-day at Chaffey Junior College on May twelfth. The play-day, whose controlling purpose is the furtherance of friendlly competition for those who have not the time for major athletics, proved a success for the San Bernardino warriors. During the day the Braves continued an old Indian custom in carrying away half the scalps. In the evening they en- joyed dinner furnished by the host, followed by entertainment in the gymnasium. Preliminary play-offs, supervised by experienced lettermen, qualified the winners to the Chaffey meet. A lightning fast and dead-eye basketball squad was led by Joe Herrera, Elmer Leinberger, Bob Hurley, Niles Hansen, Bill Haggard, Bill Colahan, Fred Herzer, Don Cocking, and James Burton. Several promising aspirants for next year ' s track squad turned out for the sticks and sprints events. Those who placed were Bill Smith, Bob Cranmer, Bob DeLange, John Von Koevering, Bill Wiggins, Keys Cooper, and Martin Forbes. Two indoor baseball nines turned out such luminaries as Bill Kennedy, Bob Wagner, Bob Chris- topherson, Carland Brunmier, and Charley Weaver. A second diamond nine was composed of Dave Williams, Norman Lindsay, Jim Parker, Douglas Sylvester, Sam Stidham, Salvador Rodriguez, Harry Smith, Dick Neddersen, Harry Kissinger, Lloyd Ferris, and Harvey Hendrickson. In the swimming division the college caught the biggest fish in the sea in Bill Wiggins, Keys Cooper, Bob Christopherson, Harvey Hendrickson, and H. Johnson. A handball twosome was made up of Charles Dunihue and Coyle Logue. Tennis turned out such racqueteers as Don Harbauer, Carl Ingraham, Wes Galloway, David Handke, and Sam Thompson. In volleyball the Braves were bravely represented by Al Fluter, Harry Henigman, Charles Burns, James Atherton, Bill Wiggins, Ken Sanford, Leonard Williams, Harvey Hendrickson, and Ralph Roberts. The play-day is to be recommended for its spirit of fellowship. 102 r J . J ' . W O M E N A ' THE WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Wcit, Luklns. Dewar. The annual Pajamorino, sponsored by the Women ' s Athletic Asso- ciation for all the women students oi the college, was one of the many highlights of the year for the Women ' s Athletic Association. The gym- nasium was the scene of the evening festivities, and breakfast was served the following morning in the cafeteria. Doctor Tempe E. Allison and Mrs. Nora Parker Coy were guests. Ably sponsored by Mrs. Erma Glass, and under the leadership of their energetic president, Dorothy Leppard, a very full program was enjoyed by the group. Other officers of the association include Cherrie Miller, treasurer; Wilma Middaugh, sports manager, and Maryann Ayers and Jane Dewar, freshman representatives. Important events of the year were the V .A.A. initiation with a hay- ride and wiener bake at Perris Hill, a skating party at Harry ' s Roller Rink, and the W.A.A. convention at the Vista del Arroyo Hotel in Pasadena. The Lettermen ' s Social was celebrated by a bowling party and ham- burger fry at Mr. Schaefer ' s. The athletic event of the season was the alumni basketball game; alumni members were invited to play against the present W.A.A.; refreshments were served after the contest. At the annual Awards and Installation dinner held on May seven- teenth, ten women received letters as awards earned in sports, and five sophomores were h9nored with the pins which recognize achievement of unusual merit. Those receiving letters were Maryann Ayers, Jane De- war, Marian Findlay, Lila Lukins, Phyllis Nagle, Enid Pepper, Virginia Sowers, Virginia West, Phyllis McGarvey, Maxine Barasa. Pins were presented to Delores Kell, Cherrie Miller, Wilma Middaugh, Eleanor DeSoto, Dorothy Leppard. Through the generosity of Mr. John Vondey of San Bernardino, this year there was established the Vondey Award for the woman in sports who best represented in character and achievements the high ideals of the Women ' s Athletic Association. Dorothy Leppard, president, was chos- en as the recipient of this honor. 104 FROM THE FIELD Two strikes, three balls is the count by Um- pire Pepper. Here comes the old equalizer. On the mound going into her wind-up is Pitcher Kell. She gets her signal from the Catcher Middaugh, and there goes Slugger West into action. It all seems to be an old story to those tepid bench warmers — just a matter of routine to Barasa, Ayers, Lukins, Sowers, and Everett This could easily be a love set! Rather diffi- cult to beat this pair; if they can ' t vanquish you forcibly, they ' ll win you with their smiles. You are welcome. Misses Ayers and Barasa. ■r; Ready for the bully-off! The idea is to hit the ball, they ' ve heard it said; but leg armor serves its purpose well when Miller is in pos- session. Nor may the opposing team relax their vigil when Leppard drives down the field. Kell, Middaugh, and Pepper stand at a respectful distance; but Cochran, Sowers, and West brave the fray. tg £ jTj AV ■-•■' • • aft? 105 ' r mM kJ- n =- - V r . u nM5 r jZx UJuUOva Ac ,e- ; „,. , ,«• ' (, ' ( ' .

AN IMPRESSION Kindly eyes under stern and shaggy brows, a face lined with care yet brightened by the hint of a thoughtful smile, strong hands with slender, sensitive fingers, a tall, gentle figure with shoiildlrs slightly stooped — this is Marie Stevick ' s portrait of Mr. N. A. Richardson, the first president of the Junior College Board of Trustees. The portrait is painted against the back- ground of the junior college campus in which Mr. Richardson took such great pride, the cam- pus whose present beauty and extensity are so largely the product of his early enthusiastic efforts and vision. The portrait is hung in the foyer of the Audi- torium where its beauty and dignity may re- mind members of the Junior College as well as citizens of San Bernardino of the numerous and valuable services which Mr. Richardson ren- dered to the college and to the community. As first president of the Board of Trustees, Mr. Richardson devoted himself earnestly to the cause of improving and broadening the influ- ence of the San Bernardino Valley Junior Col- lege in San Bernardino Valley. So well did he succeed that his memory still is an active and inspiring force in the intellectual life of the col- lege and of the community. 109 POST-nNALS DANCE Blue-books everywhere, spilling out of waste- baskets and swinging from the ceiling! Even the floor cluttered with them at that glorious event — the Post-Finals Dance. Everyone in the best of spirits with the semester ' s examinations past. Time to laugh and relax again. No more blue-book blues! VALENTINE ' S DANCE Valentine ' s Day was celebrated by a dance m the Social Hall, where couples glided by under the dangling scarlet hearts suspended from the ceiling and decoraang the walls. A radio-phonograph played the hit tunes of the week while the college men danced with their valentines, and everyone ate the little heart- shaped cakes or drank his tea. The Y ' se Wo- men won praise wi;h the first afternoon dance of the year. Y ' SE WOMEN FORMAL Ladies ' Choice again! The men had been trembling for weeks in anticipation of the Y ' se Women ' s Spring Formal. Every eligible man in school was under consideration as a date to the affair. Then the gala night arrived, and the couples came pouring into the Social Hall, and presenting their gold and green bids at the door, swirled away under the potted ferns sus- pended from the ceiling. From nine to the witching hour they danced, and then they gathered around the orchestra to listen to a -few special numbers, their toes tapping to the rhythm till they finally left the hall deserted. 110 I The general student body does not know, perhaps, how fortunate it is in having George Reniro as the technician in charge of electrical equipment of the school. Entertainment com- mittee chairmen will remember his untiring co- operation and timely suggestions; athletes will remember him for the construction of the all- electric basketball scoreboard, and dramatic groups have him to thank for the successful lighting effects of many stage presentations of the year. He will be long rem.embered by musicians and student body for the lights and scenery of the popular swing concert. George also presides over the recording machine purchased by the Music and English Divisions. Drama, speech, and music classes know him for his painstaking care in producing electrical recordings, and Adult Education leaders praise him for the construction of de- vices used in radio sound effects. If George should ever leave this institution, it will be dif- ficult to replace him. Eager aides of the San Bernardino Valley Junior College Administration, the six attend- ants of the Office Personnel have dried their pens and covered their typewriters in a fare- well to the business activities of the 1938-39 school year. The members of this branch of the Valley Junior College office force are Hazel Wilsey, Dorothy Hoffman, and Barbara Edell, of the Jtegistrar ' s office; Ruth McGuire, secre- tary to the President; Ida Collins, of the at- tendance department; and Dorothy Lo ' wson, of the Dean of Men ' s office and Adult Education office. In tune with the perpetually jovial aria of Head Custodian Leslie Shorty Schultz, the caretakers of the Valley Junior College build- ings have blended their efforts into a harmo- nizing effect to insure Spartan orderliness m the maintenance of the campus structures. The janitors who worked with Mr. Schultz during the past year are Ralph Schultz, Earl H. Stuch- berry, and Thomas Thompson. The splashes of color that are the flower beds, the emerald richness of the campus greensward, and the unusual splendor of the shrubs and trees of the college grounds can be attributed to the talents of Fred Jackson and his efficient staff of gardeners, who worked Mother Nature overtime with enviable success during the past twelvemonth. Ill Placing himself as the recipient of many questions regarding Stanford University, Reg- istrar J. P. Mitchell weathered a storm of verbal questioning like a true veteran of radio quiz programs when he wac, interviewed by pros- pective Stanford students upon his visit to the Valley Junior College. In a pleasant and understanding manner. Dr. Mitchell explained the procedure for en- trance and answered inquiries concerning room and board and work. By disregarding the high-pressure publicity approach in telling what his university had to offer, the registrar impressed his interviewers with his sincerity and attitude of helpfulness. He welcomed ev- ery question and felt privileged to give the stu- dents the right information and start them on their upper division careers successfully. No one exemplifies creative genius and in- tellectual ability more fully than Gilmor Brown, founder of the Pasadena Community Play- house. The work which he has done as an actor and as a director in his theatre is repre- sentative of his power to create, and he has become renowned throughout the theatre world for his work. Attention is commanded when he speaks, not merely from an external power, but from the sophisticated and highly cultured air which radiates in his bearing. Mr. Brown ' s interesting and informative talk concerned the work which was being done on the English and European stages during his recent visit to the foreign countries. Under the leadership of their able director, Robert Bostwick Michell, the St. Brenden ' s Choir, composed of twenty-five boys from the ages of eight to fourteen, provided a most de- lightful program of Christmas music at the con- cert which they presented during Christmas vacation. Both religious and secular numbers were included in the program. Among the religious songs which the choir presented were Oh, Holy Night , Adeste Fidelis , and Ave Maria . Secular numbers sung by the choir included Santa Claus Is Comin ' to Town , Christmas Night in Harlem ' , and a special ar- rangement of St. Louis Blues , sung as an encore. Solo parts were taken by Joey Staeck- ner and Bob Decker. 112 To promote more friendly relations between the commerce students of the college and the business men of the valley, the Fourth Annual Commerce Dirmer was held March thirtieth. Two hundred people attended the banquet in the gaily decorated Social Hall. Soft music by the instrumental trio drifted out over the hall above the voices of the assembled business men and com- merce majors, as they discussed mu- tual problems of employment, world affairs, and the excellent chicken din- ner that was being served. John Workman, student chairman, in- troduced Mr. John Ralphs, toastmaster of the evening, who spoke on the achievement of true happiness and then introduced the prominent guests and members of the faculty. An Information Please program came next, and Warner Newell and Betty Burns questioned five business men about everything from etiquette to mathematics while Sally Wilson kept score by moving five small, brightly colored automobiles across a score- board. What has the Junior College done for me? was the question answered by Al G. Harmon in a short speech. Then the principal speaker for the din- ner, William G. Paul took Capital Markets and Business Recovery for the subject of his talk, which was lis- tened to with a great deal of respect and interest. Students and business men crowded around the speaker after the dinner to ask questions about the theories he advanced in his address. Mr. John Oakie, secretary of the board of trustees of the Junior College, presented the awards which were giv- en on a basis of scholarship, character, need, and promise of future success. Dorothy Leppard was given an award by the Business and Professional Wo- men ' s Club; Edith Thompson was chos- en as winner of the Pan-Hellenic Award; and John Workman received an award from the Colton Rotary Club. These recognitions for student achieve- ment brought the happy evening to a close. 113 Whozis Whirligig. ...

On the left and on the walk the art class sketches; others gawk . . . Jausel Wallis, Lo Royne Currier, Marilyn Dietz, and Lillian Bei- sher claim backward ownership. In the sea of faces at ihe Christmas Formal only two goldfish face the camera. . . . They are Carland Brunmier and Gordon Snyder. Autumn snaps about the campus show two favorite spots . . . shady lane by the Greek theatre and the new auditorium. The genial smile of the racqueteer emanates the atmosphere surrounding Dorothy Leppard. Those who enjoy the Greek theatre are again displayed in a gay foursome . . .Evelyn Hendrix, Betty Burns, Shirley Andrews, and Rachel Watts. Again we see an ocean of faces at the tin- gling mid-year election assembly. . . . The boy with the bifocals is Rynard Bergman. With the library and ominous thoughts of study in the background, we view the usually warm and buzzing parking-lot ... as usual, warm and buzzing. . . . Gliding about at the Rose Ball . . . towards the back is Christine Ham — who are you dancing with, madame? Before is Hector Tilden and Jewel Sill; close-up Eleanor De Soto and Bob Cooper will. . . . Basketball boys are always happy . . . the one in front looks like Don Tapie. . . . In this corner we have a basketball boy and net — with a playing court of several miles of Grand Canyon ... a long way to sink a bas- ket. The art class sketches again, off the Mt. Ver- non curb. . . . Those who claim presence are Betty Zylka and James Dodson. 116 -SSt Marie Standish swings by in the arms of Phil Lancaster. Behind them are glimpsed Bob Hurley, Bob Lapham, Don Fuller, and Ted Schletzer at the Rose Ball. Jeanne Beswetherick and Agnes Boland seem to be up a tree again. Neale Pyeatt seems to be cold. Wonder whom he ' s waiting for? Dorothy Hoffman is handing out registration numbers to Paul Van Slyke, Eugene Harder, and Eugene Doerr. A bird ' s-eye view of the parking lot; those two girls down on the bench certainly appear diminutive. Marie Anderson seems to be puzzled about something. Or is that just a shy smile? Elizabeth Welton and Ginger Cardiff take off their dark glasses long enough to have their pictures taken. Careful, Elizabeth Ralphs, don ' t drop that hammer; Wilma Middaugh might not like it! Your move, Linn mutters Leland DePriest, munching a sandwich over a chess gome held at Bill Wiggins ' ranch home during the victory brawl last year. Why, Barbara Tilson, who is that good-look- ing man you ' re waltzing by with? Smile pretty, Nora, and don ' t wink at the birdie! 117 The editor and business manager wish to thank Doctor Tempe E.
