GLEASON Vice Principal whose zmseljish service to the annual and to the school has won for him the esteem and respect of the stu- dents of the San Iose High School FOREWORD '-Hzarcsve RGANIZATIONS play a great part in the activities of high school life. It is through -the different societies and clubs that the students have an opportunity to voluntarily give their time and coopera- tion to their school. In the pages of this annual no attempt has been made to decide upon the merit or the value of the accomplishments of the diHerent organizations inrelation to each other. The honor societies, journalist staffs, bank staff, book staffs, oflice staffs, dramatic soci- eties, music departments, clubs, and sport departments are all indispensable to the wel- fare of the school. Each separate club, society, staff, and de- partment helps to form that one great or- ganization, the student body, Whose key of success is unity.

To them the editor Wishes to acknowledge all credit for its success. The 'of putting the,BELL on a self-supporting basis Was newly acloptedthis' year. ' Much appreciation goes to those clubs who gave their cooperation to this system. Without this cooperation the production of the BELL would have been impossible. Miss Acworth, Miss Simpson, and Mr. Gleason gave, as always, their timeuntiringly to make the work of the BELL easier. No one can appre- ciate these services more than the editor. It is hoped that the BELL will live as a souvenir of the year's school activities, and will, in the years to come, recall to the memory of many the happy days of their boyhood and their girlhood.

To all of our students, and especially to each member of the senior class, this should be a much cherished volume. It con- tains the record of the achievements of your school, of your class, and of your classmates. Today all of these achievements are too fresh in your mind to demand a printed record, but in the years to come, the perusal of the pages of this book will refresh in your memory the present associations and outstand- ing events of your years in San Jose High School. Of each member of the senior class, the school hopes that your training here will be reflected in a successful career in whatever profession or trade you may undertake as a life work. The founda- tion of your career you have been building during the past four years, but the stability of the super- structure depends upon your strength of character and willingness to conscientiously and honestly labor in the future. We hope that in whatever suc- cesses you may accomplish, San Jose High School may at least have played an inspirational part. R. B.

P It left, as zi much needed gift, a set of dimmers for the stage switchboard, mak- ing it possible to have a number of new lighting effects. Guided by an efficient administration, the class presented a very commendable senior show and a clever and enjoyable senior ball. A theatre party replaced the usual picnic, and was found to be not only successful, but a pleasant variation, as well. Much credit is due the senior class advisors for their hard work in aiding the many committees. The graduating class was composed of one hundred and twenty members.

LAWRENCE FLORES ITH the graduation of the class of June 1928, San Jose High School will lose many of the most prominent and popular members in dramatics, debating, athletics, and other well-known school activities. Two presidents and one vice-president will also go out with the class. The school will distinctly feel this loss. The class committees, under capable heads and an eiicient administration, are busily solving their problems with the victory in view that comes through effort. The Senior Show was one of the most successful in years. The work of Miss Hamm, dramatics coach, and the cast. along with the splendid eiforts of the finance and advertising committees, will cause this production to be long remembered in the history of San Jose High, Judging from the plans of the Senior Ball committees, that traditional event will be a brilliant affair. The senior class advisors deserve more than a little credit for their earnest efforts in advising the committees.

These presidents have done much to uphold the rep- utation of honor and respect that the school has established. 98 MW in student body dues was reached during the fall, IW higher than that reached in the fall of 1927. Dances in connection with sports, including the annual football dance and dances after the basketball games, were very successful this year. School spirit for sports has been developed a great deal within the past year. Student support at games has noticeably increased. This undoubtedly due to the student body presidents. A new score board for football was bought this year. Arrangements for a turf field have been made, and football bleachers for Reed Field are to be put in this summer. Also, a sport dinner has been planned for the boys who have made teams during the year. I Boys' Weelc was successfully sponsored by the student body. Dur- ingthe spring semester a float was entered in the Fiesta parade, which won first prize in its division. A new idea in the form of a Variety Show and Mystery Follies, en- tertainments put on before the assembly, netted the student body S130 and 35140, respectively. A ' Altogether the past year has been one of progress for the San Jose Student Body. THE BELL :::::::::1:12:1:::::::::::1:::::::p4:::::::::::::::::::: S. Lieb M. johns I. Wright C. Ash A. Wi1Hston E.

The committees have all done good Work, A party was given at the beginning of each semester by the Big Sister Department as a welcome to the incoming sophomores. Entertainment was furnished by the Entertainment Department for the annual League links, which was held on the evening of December 10. This department also fur- nished entertainment for all league parties and for the league meetings. An interesting skit was presented by the School Activities Depart- ment to increase the interest of the girls in school activities. Parties were given both semesters by the Personal Efliciency Department for the girls receiving A and B grades. The Social Service Department gave a program at the Day Nursery, the Alms House, and the Pratt Home. Baskets of food were distributed to the poor families at Thanksgiving. The Candle Lighting Installation was used to install the new ofli- cers of both semesters. One of the most outstanding events given by the Girls' League this year was the May Festival, which was held on May Day in the Assem- bly Hall. It was the first ever given by the League, and proved to be a great success. Lena Lindeman was chosen May queen. A iovely pro- gram of dances was arranged by the Entertainment Department, and the Decoration Department furnished the decorations. The League also-gave a fantasy entitled Op O' Me Thumb, at the registration period on May 16. 48 THE BELL J. Wade J. Zingheim G. Scott P. Morton B. Gilmore A. Hannibal I. Atlas L.

The con- stitution has been completely revised and the name Boys' League has been sub- stituted for Boosters' Club. Interclass activities have again been taken over and carried on with success. Dur- ing the fall semester interclass football took place, the juniors winning the championship from the seniors. The spring administration managed interclass basketball and swim- ming. The annual Boys' Jazz Party was a huge success. George Scott, general chair- man, James Francis, chairman of the entertainment committee, and John Bunting, chairman of the refreshment committee, deserve much credit for making the party the success that it was. Mr. Dorr, faculty advisor, also gave a great deal of help to the League. - The Boys' League had complete charge of Boys' Week, April 28-May S. Exchange programs were given in the different schools, and many of the societies were enter- tained. The two San Jose newspapers were very efficiently taken over by students from the high school. This newly organized League during the past two administrations has been suc- cessful in every way. THE BELL T. Colosi A. Hannibal L. Flores T. Ladine D. Glass E. Berger G. Farrington D. Tedford L.

ORCH AND LAUREL, the girls' honor society of San Jose High School, was organized fourteen years ago by a group of girls led by Miss Evelyn Miller for the purpose of awarding honors to girls who had worked unselfishly for the welfare of the school. The society has stood the test of many years, as all worth-while things do, and is still as strong in merit as it was in the beginning. Only girls who have distinguished themselves in scholarship and school activities have the honor of becoming members of this society. just four girls qualified when the society was organized, among whom were: Miss Evelyn Miller and Miss Alice de Wit, the first and only girl student body president of the San Jose High School. Today the society is considerably larger, hav- ing taken in eighteen members this year. Torch and Laurel held a banquet at the Sainte Claire Hotel on December 27 forthe alumnae and the present members of the society. It was the Hrst affair of its kind given by this society, and it proved to be a great success, eighty being present. A new idea was carried out successfully this year. Members of the society went to the sophomore registration classes and asked the sopho- more girls to fill out cards giving information as to what they were able to do for League activities and entertainments. A great many of these cards were turned in, which went to prove that the girls would respond to such a request. The usual Torch and Laurel-Crown and Shield joint assembly was held both semesters to award shingles to the new members. The ad- dresses were given by Miss Yost of Stanford University and Dr. Mac- Quarrie of the State Teachers' College. It has been suggested that the alumni banquet should take the place of the usual sport dance this year, and that in alternate years the dances and banquets should be given. This question is still under discussion as THE BELL goes to press. THE BELL , YJ, zrgooc :voooc J. Wade E. Goddard R.'Rl1odes I. Atlas L. Scales J. Wool V. Hubbard L. hares K.

ROWN AND SHIELD, Boys'I-Ionor Society, has, during the past school year done much to add to the general welfare of the student body. Elbert Goddard, president for the fall semester, did much to aid the progress of the society and deserves a great deal of credit. During this administration a dance was given after school which was for the purpose of adding money to the treasury. Many new members were also taken into the organization. In the spring semester an attempt ,was made by the society to aid the student body to become 100'Zv in student body dues. Crown and Shield sent several speakers to the registration classes and awarded two pennants to those classes that became 10022 Hrst. At their joint installation with Torch and Laurel, Crown and Shield shingles were awarded to eight students and one faculty member. New members are taken into the society on the merit of their unselfish work for the school, their willingness to cooperate, and their commendable character. An excellent talk on leadership was given at this meeting by Dr. MacQuarrie, president of the State Teacher's College. In addition to the annual Torch and Laurel-Crown and Shield sport dance, one of the finest social functions of the year, Crown and Shield held its Hrst re-union banquet since the organization of the society in the fall of 1909. U The work of the executive committee for this re-union was well rewarded. More than seventy-five Old members gathered at the Com- mercial Club on Friday evening, May 30, and joined in celebrating the finest time I ever had. Representatives were present from the char- ter membership to the latest enrolled. In Ray Rhodes, president of the spring administration, Crown and Shield has had one of the best presidents since the society was organized, and he deserves great praise for the work he has done for the betterment of the society.

ASK AND SCROLL, the dramatic society of our school, under the leadership of Louis Scales and Ray Rhodes, has completed an exceptionally large program of activities during the past year. Inasmuch as the membership of this society includes the best of dramatic talent in the school, both presidents felt that Mask and Scroll should aid to present better dramatics to the student body, and not re- main merely a society to honor those who had previously taken part in productions. During the fall semester, a one-act play, Thank You, Doctor, was presented to the students during registration period. Cf the net receipts from the play, 35118, one-half was given to the general Student body fund. Under the administration of President Rhodes several interesting meetings were held at which dramatic interpretations were given by outside as well as school talent. As a much needed addition to the School library, six books on dramatics were chosen by Miss Hamm and presented to Miss Thomas by the society. Eugene O'Neill's dramatic play, Where the Cross Is Made, was given by Mask' and Scroll during the last few Weeks of school. This production was a great financial success and gave the students an oppor- tunity to see and hear a play of high character and dramatic note. As before, one-half the proceeds was donated to the student body treasury. To Miss Hamm, the dramatic coach, should go a great deal of credit for the excellent work of the society, as her cooperation with the presi- dents has been largely responsible for what has been accomplished during the year. Mask and Scroll, although the oldest Society in the school, can feel. justified in saying that the work of the past two semesters has been the best since the organization of the society in 1909.

CLUB, which was organized in 1924. by the boys of the Vocational i'iDCffJ211CmCDt, has been very active in the past year. During the spring sem- esfer of '1928 the Vocational Club met regularly every Wednesday. Officer Bill Emig, of' the local traihc bureaug lDr. Stanley Dougan, former bigvleague baseball pitcher with Cincinnatig and many other well-known men entertained the club with interesting talks. A dramatic club is being organized and as movement to start a cir- culating library for the vocational students has been started. A successful' skating party was sponsored by the Vocational Club on March 29, and the annual picnic at Alum Rock was. held towards the end of thesemester. The club this year reached ninety per cent in vocational dues, which is the high- est in the history of the department. The print shop was the first to have one hun- dred per cent, and the sheet metal and plumbing shops were close seconds. 60 THE BELL oo::::::::::::: ooo::::o p, ,Q ea- pr aLf5'n52y,1-if f i ,l Y 1, P .. ,J .1 ', T-934 f, . an 11 Z2 --. .- 1-1 :A . ,. , . , e ' I 1' Bi QI 2.2 34- ' . w..g: . .. - ' i ii: 1. ., . ,:.:f.smgs1-1 A w g E .

This crew is re- sponsible for the preparation of the stage and the care of stage equipment for all productions. Under Van Hubbard, as manager, the crew has done a great deal of work. One achievement, which is greatly to its credit, is a permanent set of scenery which was built by the stage crew and the stage craft class. This scenery is adaptable and can be used for all plays. It was built at a cost less than half the studio price. Trips have been made by the stage crew to Palo Alto, Stanford, Berkeley High School, and University High School of Oakland, in order to get new ideas for stage management. Membership in the crew involves a strenuous initiation ceremony, as perhaps a few of the new members could tell. The boys deserve a great deal of credit for their unseliish work for the school, and Miss Hamm is to be commended for the organization of the stage crew.

By 1924 a force of 14 had about 16,000 books in charge and in addition had taken over the duties of a student committee called the custodian committee. During the last four years many classics that had hitherto been kept in and issued from the library, were placed in the depository. The books now number over 27,000. The force of the depository has been increased to 20 to care for the additional Work growing out of the book increase, and a well organized system is in effect. Each member of the staff has certain duties which have to be performed in a rapid, decisive, accurate manner, or chaos would result. This work calls for the keenest student help in the school. Much of the success of the depository is due to the efforts of Mr. Cun- ningham, custodian of books.

This club is a member of the League, and it com- petes yearly for the title to Central California supremacy. The entrance requirements are: Interest in debating, good scholar- ship, and participation in one debate prior to acceptance of the appli- cation. The club now consists of ten members, which are ably coached by Miss Grace Wood. It participated in two public debates in the fall semester-one with Oakdale and the other with Santa Clara Preparatory School. In the spring semester debates were held with Palo Alto, Mountain View, Santa Cruz, and Santa Clara Preparatory School. A Interclass debating was attempted, but debating is a student body activity, and interclass competition is now handled by the Girls' and Boys' Leagues. The committee appointed dropped the matter indeinitely due to lack of student body cooperation. It is hoped, however, that more interest will be taken in interclass debating next semester. 66 THE BELL '-0::::::::::-:::::- --------A-- ---- A ------------ v Y - Y ------- --0--v-OO'-vvv-------,:::QgQ--::- Library Club Q 'UEEKGW FALL OFFICERS SPRING ROSE BERRY . . . .

CHARLES BRADFORD HE SCIENCE CLUB, one of the most active associations in San Jose High, has accomplished a great deal during the past year. Many prominent speakers have appeared on the club's extensive pro- gram. TWO sets of competent oflicers helped the Science Club in its activities. A - Interesting talks were given by Captain Cooper on Stonehenge and the Octimo systemg by Professor Buss on the geology of the Santa Clara Valleyg by Colonel Postnikov, a world authority, on Esperantog by Mr. Mac Wood of Stanford, on his recent explorations in South Americag by Mr. Dorr on local geology and Indiansg by Miss Sloane and Miss Rounds on their trips through Europe. Father Bernard R. Hubbard gave two very fine illustrated lectures on the Alps and the castles of Europe before large audiences. The series of 'illustrated talks on astronomy by Mr. Tillman was much enjoyed. Mr. Stewart, head chemist of the P. G. and E., lectured on the gas in- dustry and later conducted the members through the local plant. TWO successful candy sales were held, and a Science Club library and bulletin board were started. A class in Esperanto was organized.

EDITH SORENSON HE HISTORY CLUB has about thirty-ive members. It was organ- ized in the spring of 1924, with Sue Russel as president and Mrs. Carruthers as advisor. The purpose of the club is to present to its members interesting periods of history through different speakers. Many interesting talks have been given, among them one by Captain Cooper on The Ahnaden Stone, and another by Mr. W. B. Tuttle on ArroWheads.,' The latter was illustrated by arrowheads that he had collected from all over the United States. The History Club does not have any dues. The only requirement for membership is attendance at meetings. Mr. Dorr is advisor of the club and also a member of the program committee. It is largely through his efforts that the club has had the fine meetings that it has had this year. 70 ' THE BELL vv--0-- - - - - - - -Ov - -- vvO--::oo::ooooo-q df I 213:-:-,.g. -:X -,.5.'Zg45g1:g., - .2..j,gI'.

Four preliminary lists of words were issued to the students for study. These lists contained a total of 431 words, 100 of which were selected by the teachers. The written test was given on March 28, and twelve stu- dents in this school received perfect grades. On April 13 a spelling contest was held between ten of the high school students who had received perfect scores. This contest, determ- ining the best speller in this school, was won by Floriene Goldeen. Floriene then, as champion of the high school, contested with the students of highest standing from the junior high schools of the city. The match was held in the Woodrow Wilson junior High School audi- torium, and the competitors were Gauis Shew and Elizabeth Scott. Miss Goldeen won the match for the San Jose High School by a wide margin. Another match, which is to take place between the county schools, is expected to be held in the near future, but, as the BELL goes to press, no definite date has been set for it.

The members gave their services to many school and out- ' side activities. They played at the vaudeville show, and gave an entire program in honor of Julius Kline in November. A fine program was given during the graduation exercises. The selections of the orches- tra added much to the attraction of the two senior shows and the one- act plays. Many numbers that were much appreciated were given dur- ing the Class Day and Commencement programs. Some enjoyable numbers were played at outside activities: the ded-' ication of the Trace School and the Soroptimist Club. A free Sunday afternoon program was also given at the Roosevelt Junior High School, and selections were broadcasted over KQW. This semester was Mr. Snow's first as leader of the orchestra and band, and not enough can be said of the success that he has made of both. He secured some very difficult pieces for the orchestra. His plan was to develop musical appreciation in the minds of the members, and to have them put the expression and feeling into the music that the composer did. Selections have been chosen from many of the well-- known composers, including Beethoven, Mozart, Wagner, Massenet, and Haydn. THE BELL 75 The High School Band WUEQJIQCEUJ ' H13 members of the band have cheerfully added to the zest and attraction of numerous rallies and parades this year. Their talent and numerical strength were pronounced, adding enthusiasm and inspiration at each occasion. - Some of the particular events were: Paly Rally, November 35 two radio concerts over KQW, November 11, January 165 Odd Fellows' Home at Saratogag Red Grange Rally, January 26, as Well as numerous assemblies throughout the year. At the George Wfashington Assembly, February 21, the band feat- ured a selection, The Death of Custer. The very successful presenta- tion of this difhcult piece was largely due to the direction of Mr. Snow, band leader, who has become a member of the faculty this year. On May 12th the band competed in the state contest. This was the cooperated wonderfully, and fourth place, out of twenty-six bands, was cooperated wonderfully, and fourth place, ont of twenty-six bands, was won. Mr. Snow's directing was largely responsible for this success. First place in the marching contest can be attributed to the leader-- ship of Phil Jordan, drum major, who was excellently supported by the 96-piece band. 74 ' THE BELL - .... ---- v..... ------ ,,,,,,, -- ,.,.......... -oo:::-::::::QQQQ- D.

The mem- bers devoted much of their time to practice and, as a result, were able to give some very enjoyable programs. Their services were required at many outside affairs including vari- ous luncheon clubs. When vaudeville acts in another school were in need of an orchestra, the high school orchestra gave its help. Very peppy numbers were given at the rally for the Paly game, which put a great deal of life into the assembly. During Book Week an idea was put into action on the stage and called the Book Week Review. This idea featured the jazz orchestra, and much school talent was in evidence. The dances after the basket- ball games were joyfully looked forward to, and the music was always gladly given. Each week the orchestra played at the noon dance, new numbers were always heard. The student body meeting and rallies for the spring sports seemed incomplete without some entertainment by the orchestra. -A -AU THL BELL Ag U 75 --v - -v-- -Q- - -0e---Qoq--- L ,o-----Q--v-, .... geo-- --QQ--vQ----o- Giee Clubs 4 HE girls' glcc club has given of its talent on several occasions, notably at the Arts Club program and the Girls' League initiation.

The play is a comedy drama by Lewis Beach. There are several leads in the play, but no outstanding character. Although the show was a success, it did not come up to the standard of senior productions, perhaps due to the large number of inexoeriencerl performers. The entire cast, however, was very enthusiastic. The worl-1 behind the scenes was ably done. Edell Alder and Van Hubbard had charge of the stage and lights.

The play, written by Augustus Thomas, is considered one of the finest of American dramas, and its presentation was powerful and thoroughly sincere. A The plot concerned hynotism and the power of mental telepathy. It depicted the struggle of jack Brookfield, a professional gambler, and his final victory through a realization of his awakened self. Louis Scales, in the leading part of Jack Brookfield, gave a thor- oughly artistic and masterful interpretation. Louis has taken part in a number of dramatic performances during the year, and this was a no- ticeable climax to an already brilliant record. Marion Bailey, as Helen Whipple, showed maturity and power, especially in the emotional scenes. Dick Hiatt was excellent as Justice Prentice, the sentiment-loving Supreme Court judge. Stanley Smock portrayed the villain, Frank Hardmuth, with the skill of a real actor. John Bunting interpreted the part of Lew Ellinger, the comedian of the play, and the laughs he received from the audience speak for them- selves. The other members of the cast were: Dorothy Sword, Alfred Chand- ler, Alfred Leaman, James David, Joe Belloli, Jim Hartley, Wallace Bid- dle, and Charles Shattuck. 78 THE BELL Qperetta LITTLE ALMOND EYES NE of the most beautifully staged operettas ever presented at the school was that of March 23 and 24.

Original acts and musicals were given throughout, the authors being Charles Pait, Louis Scales, and Edell Alder. The special numbers, finale, original acts and music were all new ideas and were successful along with the show because of the untiring efforts of Miss Hamm.

It is a tragedy showing intense emotions from beginning to finish. Louis Scales as Dyke, the murderer, gave an emo- tional interprctation that was remarkable for a high school amateur. In places the acting of the cast brought tears to the eyes of the audience. Excellent support was given by Marion Bailey portraying the diiiicult role of the sister, and by Stanley Smock as the warden. The cast was as follows: The Warden ........

Louis Scales, who also took part in the con- test, gave an excellent portrayal of Hamlet. 'QMuch Ado About Nothing WHKGU' UcH Ano ABOU N TH-ING, one of the three most frequently pro uced of speare's comedies, has been chosen for the an al 'Sh arean play this year. It will be given on June 8 As the LL g s to press, the prospects for an excellent cast are very good, t student body is enthusiastically looking forward to this dramat ssic of the year. THE BELL 83 -ooc-v- v-.. -ov--- v- Registration Performances 'UEMGW . CHRISTMAS PLAY UST or THE ROAD was presented by the student body at the Christmas assembly.

Ray Rhodes l Miss Hamm had charge of dramatics this semester and with the ex- ception of the Operetta and The Ghost Story, has done all the coach- ing. To those who have seen the productions her work sp'aks for her- self. Especial mention should be made of the Dust of thi Road, the one-act plays, the Shakespearean Contest, and The Witching Hour. The last was high class drama of a type difficult for high school students to attempt, but it was excellently put on and a large part of the success of this play and of the other performances, was due to the fine training given by Miss Hamm and the high ideals of dramatic art upheld by her. 84 THE BELL ' . -WL' . . 1,17 Q E.

Lcaman Debating ORK, thought, and speech, these three combined constitute debating. And the teams have worked hard, thought much, and spoken to the best of 'their ability H in the past year. Although all the material for the team was fresh and inex- perienced in league debating, because of the graduation of the veteran members, Miss Grace Wood coached so well that some very good arguments were given. The first debate, a Central California Public Speaking League one, was on the subject: Resolved, That the Lower Divisional Wo1'k in the University of California be Discontinued After 1932. Leon Warmke and Bill Sommers made up the-affirmative team, which defeated Oakdale 2-1. Salvador Schiro and Eleanor GaY,,,,the negative team, lost to Fresno 3-0. N, The next debate was a practice onenwith the,Santa Clara Preparatory. fThe team was composed of Marguerite Gion, Siilifador Schiro, and Leon Warmlre. The subject was: Resolved, That the Interallied Debts Be Cancelled. The score went against San Jose 3-0. The third debate was a Peninsular League one, the question being, Resolved, That Trial By Jury Be Abolishedf' This was a hard subject, being one that required much technical research. Salvador Schiro and Al Leaman had an exciting argument on the affirmative side. Palo Alto, however, came out on the better end of a Z-1 score. Mar- guerite Gion and Eleanor Gay upheld the negative against Mountain View, but were defeated 3-0.

RHODES NATURALLY rather hate to tell this story, because-well, to be unusually honest- I have to admit that Bill Crothers' yarn and life rather back up what Old Bill's voice suddenly boomed out in the moonlight and the silence on the decks of the Jacksonia one night-that all men are fools when they find the one woman, and double fools when they attempt to deceive that one and only. The five of us were sitting up on the mate's deck up forward, and clinking against the sides of our glasses the ice which floated in our drinks, and then-well, by the way he bellowed out that pet theory of his concerning men you'd have thought he was trying to let in all the East of Suez-not to mention that blonde in the big suite up top-side in the aft. W' e all, of course, thought he shouldn't have yelled his darn theory out so loud seeing that he knew that all four of us ofiicers had individually convinced that blonde that as far as we were concerned she was the girl, but,-well Crothers was a passenger, and it was he who usually sent his room-boy up with ginger ale and cracked ice for us thirsty camels to drink in the eveningg so we didn't say a word- just waited for him to get started on his evening's yarn. Yes, he finally growled into the satisfying silence which hovered around him, yes, for all we say, a man is more likely to play the fool than a woman. It is the man, gentlemen, who will let his conceit force him to lie, and his conscience force him to disclose his lies. That was John Jones through and through. 'IIs this a first hand story? asked Rawcs, the purser, who was young and suave, and liked to think that he had a sweetheart in every port waiting-for him only. Well, rather! Crothers answered flatly enough to curtail any further insinuation regarding this special yarn. You see, I not only was on the spot when the main events took place, but even picked up some rather conclusive evidences during my last stay in Penang. I was down there for my firm unloading more synthetic jewelry on the principal wholesale houses around that section, which in turn unload our precious glass on native jewel hawkers, who, of course, unload it on bauble-buying tourists from the States, who naturally, when the travelers' trunks reach home, unload these now precious gems on their unsuspecting and thrilled relatives. Great system! Worked the world over. You fellows know, of course. ' As I have said, it was on my last trip that. I Hnally reached an ultimatum in this story about-ah, John Jones. I met, at the E. 85 O. Hotel one night, the other woman? Enter the villainess? questioned Rawes on the instant. Well, no. Rather the element which brought about the culmination of the plotg that is, as far as Bud Walker and Pauline Winthrode, and-ah-John Jones-are con- cerned. jones and Walker, dashing young men from the States, arrived in Penang with a minimum of money, a maximum of lust for adventure,-and a knowledge of oil- THE BELL 87 ,..--QQ.oooQQ9ooooooooo:::::ooo: : : : coo: Q :: : :c ::: : :o::::: :: :: : drilling which they were certain would be their redeeming quality once they had reached the oil fields up north of Rangoon. Although it was Walker whom Jones, as well as everybody else, credited with being the brains of the two, it was Jones with his contradictory adventurous nature, his blondeness, and his instability, who signed the checks. fYou know the type, of course.j After the ship which had mothered them for the five short weeks since they had left home had drifted out through the Straits into the blueness and the distance, they turned and looked at the Hindu wharf rats with their long black hair, their drooping mustaches, their soiled gingham shirts, and sorry looking multi-colored turbansg and they felt ever so far away from everything that counted. But they were young, and they smiled back good-naturedly as the Hindus flashed their ivory teeth in welcome from the shadows where they squatted in chattering circles around their noonday rice mounded on palm leaves. jones and Walker found, after they had hurried by 'rickshaw through the shady streets to an English hotel with its long veranda fronting on a palm-dotted beach, that they were not quite as intent on charging into the wilderness as they had thought they would be. You'd naturally expect it to be Jones with his jaunty waxed mustache and a personality considered above par, even in the States, who would prove the largest at- traction of the season in the one-stepping English ballroom, and he was. Even so, it was Walker who ended up a whirlwind week with an option in his hand on some much- desired land up in Burma,-and deeply imbedded in his heart, the promise of a fair- haired English girl, Pauline Winthrode. Pauline was just a woman. Pretty, yes, but-well, dumb-enough to think her- self clever. She used her large blue eyesto an advantage, of course, being a woman. NValker always said they were beautiful. The two boys found, after they had finally wormed their way up to their land, that the land was all that had been claimed. After endless weeks with no sight of any other white man, however, they agreed that bossing Hindu natives might be con- sidered work and that pleasure was a word to be found in any dictionary-but not in Burma. They laughed and joked and swore in the evenings to ward off depression, but always, for Jones, there were those long silences while his chum re-read eternally his too-often delayed Weekly letters from Pauline. As weeks sweltered into months, Paul- ine became a goddess in the memory of Walker, a desire in that of Jones. And then she wrote, now forlornly, that she was happy now in her father's old home-in Eng- land. Between those cherished lines to Walker, Pauline seemed to have written tear- fully that his diamond ring was losing its lustre-its meaning. 'Bud,' Jones mumbled out one evening, 'one of us must go to Rangoon for supplies soon.' 'This weelc?' 'Tomorrow, or next day.' 'Who shall go? How shall we decide? 88 THE BELL 'Shall I deal the cards? 1 'Yesf And he did. Fate undoubtedly dealt the cards though, for it was Jones and not Wallcer who went into their shack a few moments later to pack. Jones gave Rangoon hardly a passing glance from beneath his sun-helmet. It was Penang that he longed for. A few minutes after his boat had drifted alongside the dock at Penang, Jones was there on the hotel veranda at the beach, lounging contentedly and answering questions. . SucCess? Well, yes, in a way. One fair well ing two drilled only to find Lady Luck with her back to them. Had the fever? No. Was Walker well? And then with the lust for pleasure, and freedom from that hellish routine up north goading him on, Jones lied-craftily, deliberately. Walker? He hadn't heard from him for weeks. Just disappeared into the vast country around them. Never found him? Never. Fever got him maybe, possibly a snake--a python. Had he written Pauline Winthrode the news? And then Jones thought a moment and answered, 'N0. I shall go to England myself and tell her. The oil wells are safe with my native foreman. I'1l go myselff Jones did go to England, and he broke the news to Pauline quietly and sym- pathetically, not making Walker such a hero that she would feel bonded to his mem- ory. Jones explained softly one evening that only his friendship for Walker had stayed his telling Pauline of his devotion to her after their first meeting in Penangg but, Walker having declared himself first, he had worshipped her in silence. Pauline married Jones soon after with great pomp and ceremony. They lived in England for a time quite happily, Jones, however, often sinking down to the lowest levels of despair, battling with his conscience night and day. Always, it seemed, there was the memory of XValker trusting him-and his weaken- ing, his selling Wall4er's faith in him to gain a mere woman. It was inevitable that Pauline should become a mere woman and then, as time went by, a thorn in his side. Happiness abandoned their home, pushed out by the gathering shadows of gloom, and Jones walked the floor with his Past, and Pauline sat pouting in a corner with their Future. john, let's go to a dance tonight,' she said one evening rising for a moment above her melancholy. 'No.' That was all he said, and she sank back defeated, admitting silently that his word was law. 'Woman was born to suffer in silence, I supposef she mused aloud unwittingly. 'If you've told me that once, you've told me ten thousand times,' Jones an- swered scorchingly, and then turned again to battle with his conscience. That she would learn the truth about NValker sooner or later, Jones knew was inevitable. He knew too, of course, that he should tell her all, but sensing the hate which Pauline would fling at him, he lived on with his gloom and his conscience. Finally, unable to stand it longer, he insisted that she needed a vacation from England -told her she would enjoy seeing her old friends in Penang, demanded finally that THE BELL 89 she go, secured reservations for her on a boat sailing for the East of Suez, and, after she had sailed, returned to his office and wept bitter tears, knowing that she would learn all-in Penang. I-Ie realized now that she was more dear to him than anything, but-in Penang, what would she do? To say that Pauline Jones' vacation was a success in the ordinary sense of the Word would be a gross exaggeration. She arrived in Penang late one afternoon. She sailed for England the following day. 'ijones met her at the dock in fear and trembling. She was glad to see him, she said. 'You enjoyed your trip, darling, didn't you?' he asked searching, curious as it may sound, for some hint of her justified wrath and hatred, which surely must come. 'Yes,' she said. 'See that my baggage is brought off immediately, Johnf And believe it or not, that was the psychological thing for Pauline to say. Had she added 'please' or 'darling' then, it would not have been unconsciously branded upon the brain of john jones that his reign as head of the family had ended. Because he was a man, because he knew she had learned something in Penang, because,-well, the baggage was brought off immediately. It was a servant to Pauline Jones who saw to that, his name was Jones. NVell-from that day on Jones adored eloquently the wife who had forgiven his sins and returned to him, and Pauline enjoyed the purple velvet drapings of her new- found throne on which her husband worshiped her, and said, john, we are going to a dance tonight,' or 'John, dorft smoke in this room-ever,' and expected, QYes, darling,' for a reply-and got just that. . Pauline never told him what she had learned in Penang. She just let him won- der and fear the worst and worship her for returning to such a base creature as himself. And then, two years later, jones took a trip down the Malay Peninsula for his firm, and, being human, he couldn't resist the temptation to visit Penang, nestling in its jungle-studded island. Jones sat in the hotel ballroom alone at his table that evening. He signaled inally for one of the native dancing girls to join him. She came at once, her rhinestone jewels glittering in the light. She was a mixture of English impertinence and Hindu guile, and she had been named Lucille by her English father for no good reason at all. She was Hindu in her beauty and in her guile, as I have said, and, being a woman, she wanted the world and Jones to know that she was a dancing girl only because her white-man husband fshe accented the white -man of coursej had given her a dirty deal. Said theyid been married two years and a half, said he'd made money in oil and gambled it away and drunk it,up in liquor as fast as he made itg reminded him again that her husband was white-a Yankee named Wallser, she said. Do you follow? She was a Hindu at heart all right, bays. She laughed gleefuly at his surprise at her husband's name, even though she didn't understand the reason for his show of emotion. And then, cat-like and with native pride at an accomplishment, and laugh- ingly triumphant, she told how one of her husband's old flames, an English girl, had come to Penang and to their shack to see him. 'We gave her a surpriseg she left the next day,' Lucille gurgled out, and Jones 90 THE BELL 2::::::::: : :::oQ::::::::::-:::::: ::o:::o::cQe::Q:::::::o::ooo laughed and laughed, but felt ever so funny way down in his heart. What a shock to Pauline it must have been to find her Walker the drunken husband of a Hindu girl. Jones returned to England soon after-returned, but never again assumed the role of his wife's 'Yes'-man. 'Never again? Could that be?' Rawes could not refrain from exclaimlng as he sat there, his almost empty glass sparkling in the tropical moonlight. Yes. But how? . Why, by showing her that only an essentially vulgar nature can be pleased with the servility of others, by forgiving her and thereby forcing her to place him in thc clouds above her. By forgiving her, gentlemen, I say again. Well, cheerio, boys. And we just sat there and watched his broad shoulders disappear down the stairs, and we wondered if we hadn't ever met people like Walker, and Pauline, and jones. Ah, yes-Jones. Perhaps we had.

It is sumptuously furnished 4' 3-nxthe style of the iifteenth century. To the left and right are doors. The one on the 'left leads to some exterior. The one on the right leads into the interior of the castle. 0 the back center is another door, heavily curtained. This leads to the Princess' bou- doir. On the rise of the curtain the Princess and her companion, Lady Diana, are in close conversation. They are near a table which stands in the forepart of the stage. PRINCESS.-Richard will send his messenger today, Diana. I am sure he will. He told me when the King, my uncle, exiled him, that he could clear himself of the ac- cusation which the King had made, but that he needed time. In the meantime he said he would send a messenger. You dispatched the guards to receive him as I told you to? He will come by the back wall through the forest. LADY DIANA.-Yes, I have sent your two most trustworthy guards to receive him. They will bring him directly to this room. But, Madam, why did your uncle, thc King, exile Richard? I have heard only the court rumors, and rumor, they say, is false. PRINCESS.-It was my uncle's minister, Blanquet, who influenced him to exile Richard. He accused 'him of being in a conspiracy to overthrow my uncle's kingdom. LADY DIANA.-But, surely, your uncle knows that Richard would not do that! He certainly can not think his own wife's nephew would conspire against him? PRINCESS.-If my uncle were let alone, he would know that, but he is under the influence of Blanquet. I-Ie believes all that Blanquet says, and acts accordingly. LADY DIANA.-But your uncle will not accept Blanquet's word as proof of his guilt? PRINCESS.-Yes, Blanquet has my uncle under his thumb. The King is vcrv easily led and turns as the wind blows. Blanquet, it happens, controls him. now. THE BELL 91 LADY DIANA.'1ADd did Duke Richard offer no proof of his innocence? PRINCESS.-It was of no useg the King would not listen. I have a headache and wish to retire for a time. You will please call me when the messenger arrives. See that he is received with all possible secrecy. If the King should know that Richard sends a messenger, he would execute the man. LADY DIANA.-Very well, Madamg I shall see that no one disturbs us when he arrives.

Wlmen I met him, he was drunk and talked too much of a mission. He did not recognize me, and when he left, I set out with him. Forcing him into a fight, I wounded him and searched him. I found on him a letter from Blanquet to Prince Ferdinand of Spain. In it Blanquet said he would help Ferdinand overthrow your uncle's throne and would contrive a marriage between you, my Princess, and Ferdinand, if Ferdinand would, in return- rnake him Regent of the government on its overthrow.

Costly Thy Habit A' Roland cursed the greasy little relic which he was fervently attempting to excite into motion. I-Ie cursed it because he was already late to an important social engage- ment, cursed it because its dirty mechanism had soiled his spotless hands, cursed it bc- cause on his expensive neatly-tailored suit there was already a huge, black spot, achieved while changing a broken spark plug. j , But relic and dastard that it was, the ornery contraption knew-or seemed to know-more-than it waswgiven credit for. When,i.t had allowed the hands of time to creep an .hour or two ,past the numeral set ,for,,Roland's,engagement, it suddenly, THF. HFPL 97 with a playful pop or two, vibrared perfectly, And when it had carried Roland down the avenue about a mile, it began humming this little moral: uflostly thy habit - As thy purse can buy---- Rich but not gaudy, For the apparel oft proclaims the man. Of course, the antique roadster knew that Roland was dressed in his only dress suit. Surely it knew that its master was bound for the home of a banker's daughter where Roland intended to lead the sweet little miss into the delusion that her caller was more than a harrow-master. That was why the roadster, knowing the values of life better than Roland, had refused to percolate. And Roland, well, he went home and changed his suit for the faded blue overalls, moodily reflected on the advantages to be gained by dispensing with his trusty gas-horse, and, later, when a farmer's daughter rang the community phone, spent the evening joyously chatting with her. -ANONYMOUS. Sketch It was the evening of Miss Dimmick's recital, or, to be quite exact, it was the evening of Miss Dimmiclfs pupils' recital. The hall was situated behind the town's largest music store,-a stuffy little hall with only one entrance. At one end on a platform stood the piano, a rather lugubrious looking grand which Miss Dimmick had rented for the evening. f l ine instrument, said the music store proprietor. Pade- rewski used it when he was here last. j At one side of the piano stood a bridge-lamp ffrorn Miss Dimmiclfs parlorj, at the other, a fernery ffrom Miss Dimmick's side- porchj. Behind the piano on the paneled wall hung two pictures-large framed pho- tographs of Signor Enrico Caruso as Rhadames in Aida, and of Miss Geraldine Far- rar as Namiko-San in Madame Butterfly. The bottom of each frame bore a brass plate inscribed RECORDS FOR TI-IE TRUE-TONE EXCLUSIVELY? At the edge of the platform, spaced at precise intervals, were three bouquets of half-wilted roses. The parents, relatives, and friends Csuch as could be dragged alongj of the pupils had already come in and had seated themselves upon the folding-chairs which filled the hall. The men were red and uncomfortable from unwonted evening shaves and high collars. The women looked about nervously, uncertain, as to whether they should take off their hats-as they did in a movie-show-or not. Both men and women were, for the most part, unaecustomed to recitals. They were giving their children advan- tages which we didn't have. A heavy odor filled the air, a mixture of,the scents of shoe-blacking, face-powder, cheap perfume, shaving-soap, and wilted, roses. The bridge-lamp burned brightly. Miss Dimmick opened the door of the side-room. QBehind her could be seen the pupils-seven girls, three boys-anxious, palpitatingj Miss Dimrnick came forward, smiling sweetly. - Friends, said Miss Dimmick, our little recital fshe said, ow-uh littul ree-ci- tul j is about to begin. But first I should like to speak a few words on Music ..... 98 THE BELL Edwin Arlington Robinson: An Appreciation I may not know anything about art, but I know what I like. -Common Saying. One of the few present-day American poets whom I admire is Edwin Arlington Robinson. My reasons for this admiration are three: I admire his technique, his choice of subject matter, and his philosophy. During the last several years many poets have written free verse, but, unfortun- ately, in the greater part of their work grammar has died to make verse free. In the midst of such slaughter it is comforting to find one author who never maltreats the English language and who writes verse that can actually be scanned. Mr. Robinson is not a Milton or a Shelley, but, in its way, his verse is quite as perfect as theirs. His sharp, clean-cut lines could not have a word taken from them or a word added to them. Their fine precision and exactness give me the same sort of pleasure that a mathematician might take in the perfect elucidation of a geometrical theorem. In his choice of subject-matter Mr. Robinson proves that an artist can extract beauty from the most common-place materials. The clear, cameo-like loveliness of such lyrics as The Milleris Wife or Richard Cory fan Ibsen tragedy boiled down to four stanzasj is one of the finest defences that can be made for the realistic method in literature. Again, in Ben Jonson Entertains a Man from Stratford and in Rem- brandt to Rembrandt he demonstrates that poetry can be as profoundly psychological as prose. Likewise, Merlin and Launcelot and Tristram have shown us that medieval legends can be made as vital and modern as the themes of, let us say, Mr. Theodore Dreiser. ' Mr. Robinsonis philosophy of life is a modihed Epicureanism. He is as far re- moved from the blatant optimism of Edgar Guest as he is from the blatant pessimism of Carl Sandburg. He goes into no hysterical ecstasies over Love, Faith, Humanity, or any other capitalized abstraction. I-Ie does not yell, Glory Hallelujah! Look at me! I'm an atheist! Witli calm detachments, impersonal, objective serenity, hc views life and concludes that man may better his condition, not by calling to the gods for aid, nor by shrieking out against the gods, but by helping himself. His philosophy, I think, does Mr. Robinson greater honor than either his technique or his subject-matter. A Typhoon Sunset The island-dotted bay at Hong Kong rippled easily in the afternoon breeze, and then as if in warning to the swarrhy Chinese scurrying from end to end of their junks, the bay billowed and rolled, and the wind laughed shrilly as it lashed the spray over the side of their miniature ships, striking them full in their amazed faces. And, as the spray leaped from the blue below to form diaphonous, colored rainbows in the set- ting sun, many-muscled coolies sat in their junks behind the point at Kowloon, and gazed terror-stricken at the sky above them4a sky now painted red by the gods. It meant a typhoon! For hours the Chinese sat-six-seven-eight-and finally nine o'clock-and still the sky was a flaming roofg still did Hong Kong across the bay remain a mass of molten marble. And then the wind died down and the typhoon-warning flag drooped and the multitude of lights called the Constellation of Hong Kong shone faintly below a sky still red, still terrifying. . fr 4 ' x W ' ,whim-x4'cn-yy . .3 11 ' f '- M ' ' Q- 1 -- f .ve-,.,,, em , 1 1 ': . 5,1-. . . .l .1 1. -,X - 'EF J:'45?'fx:f ' Q.

Previous to the burninge of Palo Alto in effigy, an indoor rally was held in the auditorium. The school band and orchestra played several selections, which kept things going at a lively clip. A very inspiring ight talk a given by Mr. Leland, which increased the enthusiasm a great deal. Ciioicli Bill -Martin and members of the team were called to the platform and greeted with thunderous applause. After the indoor rally the band led a parade through the main streets of the'city, accompanied by hundreds of rooters who made more noise than has been heard in San Jose since New Year's Eve. The bon- fire was lighted at the Roosevelt Junior High School before an audience of 1200 students and supporters. Railroad ties 30 feet high, and boxes and crates of all sorts, with a very realistic effigy of a Paly player on the top, formed a very impressive climax for such a rally.

It is not always necessary, however, to have a winning season to have a successful one. This year's team was composed mostly of sophoe- mores and juniors who were inexperienced-men who will be eligible for a powerful squad next year. Besides the men on the hrst string there were numerous fellows who were on the sophomore team. With the training they have received they will be good prospects for next year's varsity. Therefore, although all the games but one were lost, the scason was not as much of a failure as it seemed to be. The purple and white entered a team that was ready to do some fighting, but as San Jose takes up at a later date than the other peninsula schools, the team lacked suffi- cient coaching and practice. In this way the boys were sorely handicapped, as the other schools had already played a game or two. In the iirst game of the season San Jose lost two regulars, Bunting and Allen, through injuries received while playing. However, their places were well filled by Hornbeck and Follendorf, respectively. There were several individual stars: Captain Paul Morton, who kept up the sprints of the team, Ed Riley, who was chosen as the team's most valuables player and all P. A. L. quarterback, and Melvin Hornbeck. The team was composed of Follendorf, Goddard, Norton, Riley, Hulseman, Schneider, Wool, Atlas, Hornbeck, Frances, Allen, Connett, Cauthen, Oldham, Morton, Saunders, Bunt- ing, Felice, Tucker, Arnold, Evans, and Meyer.

Boys' Basketball THE A DIVISION HE unlimited basketball team succeeded again this year in just winning the majority of games. During the previous years of athletics one sport has generally appeared to be a greater success than others. Last year it was, without doubt, basketball. This year, however, track and baseball have been more successful. There are two outstanding games that deserve special attention. These games were played with Palo Alto. The Hrst game Palo Alto defeated San Jose by a decided score of 38-16. The next game San Jose met Palo Alto on the home court. The first few minutes of play San Jose gained 4 points and Paly none. The half ended with the score 17-12 in favor of San Jose. Paly started after the half and slowly gained until by the end of the third quarter she was only one basket behind. In the next quarter she tied the score as the bell sounded the end of the game. As it is necessary to play off a tie, a period of three minutes was played. During this time one of the Paly men made two long shots which ended the game 22-18 in Paly's favor. The basketball season of '28 leaves three good letter men for next year. They are George Norton, Melvin Hornbeck, and Allen Davis, The success of the next season depends greatly upon these men. The season scores are as follows: 23 17 San Jose Campbell . .

Rondoni G. Mostcllcs J. Stark E. Gordon F. Bennett M. Ziegler THE B DIVISION HE 130-lb. basketball team did not enjoy a very successful season this year, winning only two games out of ten. At the beginning of the 130 and the unlimited basketball sea- son the league was divided into Section X and Section Y. This division was made in order to shorten the season so as not to allow it to interfere with the baseball league. This separation of schools in the league short- ened the season considerably. During the year of 1927 this weight team played 27 games and in the year of 1928 they played only 12 games. This partly accounts for the tearn's winning only two games, as those schools that San Jose played last year were in the other league. In order to decide the winner of the P. A. L., the winner of Section X played the winner of Section Y. Practically the same team that played in the 130-lb. team made up the 120-lb. team the' semester before. ' This also helps to account for the games lost. The season's scores are as follows: 9 20 San Jose Santa Cruz San Jose Salinas . San Jose Alumni 45's San Jose Palo Alto San Jose Santa Clara San Jose Sequoia San jose San Mateo San Jose Campbell San Jose Campbell .

A. L., but lost to San Mateo by a 15-6 score. In the first part of the season before the league opened, the small team de- feated Campbell and Santa Clara by such a large score that they were expected to be very successful inthe P. A. L. During the P. A. L. series they dropped but one game. This was to Palo Alto. This game was exceptionally close until the fourth quarter when the Paly cagers finished with a five point lead. They did not drop another game until they met San Mateo to decide the winners of the league. Anthony Maffey and Joe Pizzo were chosen as all-P. A. L. forwards.

The weight team has never won many honors, although several times it has been a runner-up in the P. A. L. This condition is probably due to the lack of experience. A man seldom plays in the 120-lb. division for two successive years. He usually is too large the second year, and so goes out for the 30's. Due to this fact Coach Lou Vogt is hoping for some new material to come over from the junior high schools next semester. In the games of the Peninsular Athletic League this year the weight team was exceptionally poor. In the series of eight games it won only two. These were both against Sequoia, one of San Jose's greatest rivals. The season's scores are as follows San Jose Campbell .

It Went through the season absolutely undefeated except for the North Coast Section meet. In this San Jose took a close second, being defeated only in the relay by Berkeley. Besides this it made a clean sweep in the P. A. L. Not only did it win the unlimited, but all three classes of the limited. Jim Francis was sent to the State meet, where he took a fourth place in the 880. Charles Boysol was the high-point man of the season. His Wonder- ful Work in the discus, shot-put, and hurdles, certainly helped run up the points. Homer Allen and Jim Francis did Well in the distance runs. Gilmore, although a Class B man, took points for the unlimited in the jumps. The whole team as well deserves to be praised for their support. The season's scores are: San Jose . 692 T. C.

They won every meet they participated in by large scores. A clean sweep was made in the P. A. I... by winning all three classes. Many of the members of the team made their blocks and will be eligible for com- petition again next year. Therefore it is hoped that the good work in track will continue in the future. The team was exceedingly well bal- anced, being able to hold its own in every event. Gilmore was high-point man in Class B for the season, winning his events in the jumps consistently. John Burke was a sensation in Class C. He was one of the fastest sprinters in the P. A. L. and was the best in his class. Bovee took the high-point honors for the D class. This does not mean that these fellows deserve all the credit, because it was only due to the rest of the team and the untiring efforts of Bill Martin that they were successful.

The team then met and defeated the Stockton High School team, which was the champion of the San Joaquin Valley. The score of this match was 4-2. Palo Alto High School was also defeated by San Jose, 6 matches to 1. In the P. A. L., however, San Jose was unsuccessful. Darwin Graun was defeated in the finals by Melvin Whitman of Burlingame. The doubles team composed of Al Siegler and Ferrand Icanberry was also defeated in the finals by Burlingame. In both matches the scores were very close and the victory not decisive. On May 20 a meet was held with the strong Burlingame team which copped the P. A. L. singles and dou- bles. In this San Jose was successful, winning 5 matches to 4.

In boys' baseball, track, and swimming, thc Peninsular Athletic League has been won. Lou Vogt, who coaches basketball and swimming, was very successful in the lat- ter, basketball, however, was a little below normal. Bill Martin, the coach of football and track, was unusually successful in track. The team, after winning the P. A. L., took second place in the N. C. S. meet. Berkeley was the winner of this meet by a very few points. Walt Willianis, who is coach for baseball had a very successful sea- son. 'The team won the P. A. L., defeated tlte champions at the C. C.

They have cooperated in every possible way with the captains of the several teams and with the teams themselves. , In the fall, hockey season proved a most exciting time and special credit for this goes to Coach Mayer. Basketball also had a very good season under the coaching of Miss Davis, who left in the early spring, and Miss Reardon. Track, although lasting only a short time, was very successful with the excellent coaching of Miss Reardon. In the spring semester a great many girls came out for sports, all enthusiastic to make the teams. The coaches had their hands full with all this material, but certainly made some fine squads out of it. Miss O'Neill reported that she had never coached a finer baseball team in her whole experience as a coach than she did this year. Other successful teams were volleyball, under the capable coaching of Miss Spirito, a new fac- ulty member this spring, tennis, with Miss Mayer, and swimming, with Miss Reardon. THE BELL 113 N.

This is the first time we have been so fortunate as to have enough girls to form a team for both high and low classes. The low sophomores and low seniors tied for interclass championship, each winning four games. The high sophomores, due to there being only six members on the team, were greatly handicapped and were obliged to forfeit three games. The last game of the season, the championship game between the low seniors and the low sophomores, was very exciting. Miss O,Neil called it the best girls' game that she had seen in five years.

Diving played an important part in the swimming meets, for there are many girls in San Jose High School who are fine divers. When the play day was held at Palo Alto on May 12, swimming was for the first time included as a competitive sport under the new system. San Jose took hrst place in the 25 -yard dash and in diving. It also placed in every event entered. A great many of the girls have passed the American Red Cross Life Saving Test and act as life guards and instructors during the meets and the Swim Week in June. Much credit for the success of the season should be given to the swimming manager, Evelyn Raymond, to the coach, Miss Reardon, and to the three captains: Senior, Vera Snow, Junior, Peggy Durneyg Sopho- more, Dorothy Burton. . HE BELL 121 pw we .X , fr i ' 1 l A. Camgross F. Cavello Rooting - 'UHECGW NDER the leadership of Armand Camgross a record number of successful rallies were staged during the past year. The cheering at these events was a wonderful improvement over that of pre- vious years. At the games held during the two semesters large crowds with plenty of pep attended to inspire the teams to do their best. However, baseball and basketball were the two most popular sports, track and football being on the whole not nearly as well attended. During the entire baseball season the large crowds that turned out for the most important games helped the team put its utmost in the game to win for S. J. H. S. Likewise, in the N. C. S. track meet San Jose had the largest rooting section by far of any other school entered. Camgros's two assistants, Frank Covello and James Sanderson did fine work at leading yells. At several of the games it was one of the assistants who led the rooters ably in the absence of his superior. 122 THE BELL' :::::----:::::::-::::::: :::::::::::::::::::::::::Q0::::::oQ:: 3 Fiesta Float WBKW' HE SPIRIT OF CHILDHOOD,,, an allegoric, floral conception of fairy fancy, was the San Jose school departments 1928 entry in the an- - nual Fiesta parade. Designed by Miss Charlotte Simpson, and as- sembled by the art and vocational departments of the city schools, the float in its theme and construction was accepted as one of the season's finest productions. It was granted the Hrst divisional prize. Three humming birds, so constructed that they might move as in flight constituted the imaginary motive power of the float. Behind them, as if living in a garden so Wonderfully designed that it might have been mistaken for a fraction of mother Nature's realms lent for the occasion, rode the fairies and elves recruited from San Jose's elementary schools. The float and its immediate escort were colored entirely in the soft, pastel shades. The float Was escorted by the High School band and a group of stu- dents from the junior and senior high schools. The girls escorting the float in the first half of the parade were selected from the Woodrow Wil- son Junior High School and were relieved during the second half by girls from the Theodore Roosevelt Junior High. Thus all of those who so gladly helped to make the float the splendid success that it Was, had a part in its presentation. . . . l JJ?
