O, Love, Presiding Genius of this Book That hath from our small world impression took, Lift up thy bow, and strike anew the chord That tunes the hearts of men in sweet accord- Joy, grief, hope, fear, each answering each in part, Life's antiphonthat binds the human heart! Here in this Booklet is the friendly jest, The earnest effort, the illusive quest, Each sent a winged symbol of our love. A fitting farewell message may it prove! Dear Love, Presiding Genius of our Play, O, let our due feet never fondly stray, From that clear ethered height, from whence the true Stood out against the false in values new. Oh, letthe music of thy viol resound To love that girds the whole world 'round - Not love that asks, but selfless love that gives, All made of faith and service, love that lives To bless the thing it loves, and so is blest- A lifelong sanctuary! Such is thy bequest. O, Love, Presiding Genius of our Lives, Wake in our souls the music that survives Life's fleeting moment. Let its alchemy Transmute to gold what commonplace might be In brother man. O, let us swiftly see The Gne in all, the God in thee and me. Strike, Goddess, strike thy silver bow, Let Love Divine in fullest accents flow, For we have caught thy secret melody:- In harmony with God, the soul is free. JANE CARROLL BYRD.

Many improvements planned for the present year were delayed until after the opening of school in the fall. The opera chairs have increased the seating capacity of the assembly hall, and have proved a great comfort and convenience as well. The steel lockers were a necessary accompaniment to these. The efficiency of the music class has been increased by the purchase of a Victor Victrola phonograph and a small collection of good records. A heavy drop-curtain, long needed for the assembly stage, was purchased in Los Angeles, and was ready for use in time for the Senate farce. The pro- ceeds from the farces given by the Quorum and the Senate Went into a fund for the purchase of a motion-picture-machine fund. Other small sums were added during the year, so that the amount now on deposit in that fund is about 34100. Next year should see a motion picture machine in regular use as a part of the school equipment, both for instruction and for amusement. In April, the worst defects in the lighting of the study hall were remedied. Four of the unsightly and unnecessary posts were removed at the same time. To protect the school records from loss by fire, a beautiful new safe was purchased for the oilice. Provision was made for storing records for many years to come. Gradually the commercial department of the school has taken over the custody and auditing of all the separate funds of the school: student body, de- posits for lockers, laboratory deposits,,girls' gymnasium fund, and many others. Over 851,000 has been handled during the year in this way. The Student Body Council has been called upon more than ever to render decisions in cases of discipline. Their judgment has been wise, and has re- sulted in a feeling of confidence on the part of the students in the justice of their representatives. The agriculture class has been a success. The evidence of its work on the lots opposite the school building is very apparent: neat, pretty garden plots have replaced the broken and weed-covered patches of a year ago. The machine shop classes have made apparatus for the school which could hardly have been secured otherwise. Mr. Whittaker designed a desk for use in free-hand and mechanical drawing. Castings were made in one of the local THE OLIVE AND GOLD foundries from patterns made in our shops. These were finished by the stu- dents, and a sample desk was shown to the Board of Education, who author- ized the manufacture by the boys of a number of desks for next year. Cement work will be taught this year for the first time in the High School shops. By far the most important happenings of the year have been in the good work done by regular training in gymnasium classes, under Mr. Brown's in- struction, the use of the open air gymnasium for some regular academic work, the new policy of giving to the entering class the most careful attention and the most experienced teachers. The present senior class is a record breaker in size, 56, the nearest ap- proach in the past was 44. The total enrollment for the year passed the 400 mark. The Departure of Mr. Fultz. It is with regret that we hear of the withdrawal of Mr. Fultz from the superintendency of the city schools. Mr. Fultz has always been a good friend of the High School and we extend to him our good wishes for success in what- ever he may undertake. Resignation of Miss Kent. I Miss Kent's resignation came to us as a surprise. Although as a class we have had no work with Miss Kent, we have felt her gracious presence among us and regret her departure. Our good wishes go with her wherever she goes. What the School Has Meant to Us. Commencement! Commencement of the longer life which, full of promise and power, lies just beyond these walls-the life for which Santa Barbara High School, with its ideals of fine, sweet, womanhood, and clean, young, man- hood-have prepared us. To us, after four years of the happiest, hardest, dearest days of our lives, comes now the joy of achievement, for we, the Senior Class of 1913, have accomplished that which we set for ourselves four years ago. Now, as we stand on the threshold of the life of wider scope, we look back and say, It is well. What the Year Has Meant to Us. All tag-ends of knowledge, all stray influences, all good things of the four years have focused in this Senior Year. Fifty-six diverse personalities with varying interests have merged into a unit of loyalty, the Class of 1913. And how has this been accomplished? It has been done through co-operation in advancing class and school interests. It has been done through the Senior Play, whose high ideals have lifted us from our own petty selves and have given us the wider view-point of life. It has been done through the work of this book, the editing of which has become an invisible bond. This year of working to- gether for an unselfish end has taught us not only to develop ourselves, but, also, to subordinate individual welfare to the common good, and to realize the greater return to self: Love purged of self can never suffer ill.' 9 THE OLIVE AND GOLD To Those Who Follow. To the Staff of 1914: For the last time, we, the Senior Class of 1913, send forth this magazine, which to us has been the source of a rare joy and growth. Class of 1914, and all succeeding classes, remember the motto of the Olive and Gold , Honor to whom honor is due. Take full advantage of the wonderful opportunity aiforded you of receiving the help of so understanding a critic as Mrs. Byrd, and with the traditionally high standards set by the Olive and Gold , make it always refiect the best, and be a veritable instrument of noble deed and words. May next year's staff of this magazine feel behind it the hearty co- operation which characterizes our school, and which we have felt so strongly. The stalf of the Olive and Gold is in the most certain measure the repre- sentative of the school. Our Contributors. The greatest diiiculty this year has been the selection of a few good things for the magazine from the much excellent work handed in. On account of space, we have been obliged to turn aside material which we would gladly have welcomed in any other issue. The signiicant thing about the material this time is that it reflects local atmosphere and color, take, for instance, the story Mischief , by Marjorie Ruiz, The Old Order Changeth , by Edna Petersen, and much of the poetry. And never before has poetry of such a high quality been submitted, for some of it has in places touched the heights, and purple patches may be found. The following list of unpublished articles will show how high the standard has been this year: Senior Problems , Hazel Smith, The Way it Happened , Alice Barnes, The Power of Music , Rosamond Bradbury, Ye Banks and Braes are Bon- nie , anonymous, Sunset , Cpoemj Winona Higgins, Spring , Cpoemj Lois Mitchell, Nuestro Amigo , Benjamin Lopez, .

Appreciation. To you, our friends, Mrs. Byrd, Miss Overman, Miss Southwick, and Mliss Dimmick, we, the Senior Class of 1913, do extend our heartfelt gratitude for assistance rendered us in the editing of our magazine. With never-tiring good- will you have helped us on every occasion. A GOODLY COMPANYE. When that com June with his farewell sweete, And we to gon, it seemeth naught but meete That we, the Senior Class should well bethink Our debt to those to whom we have been link. And so with courtesiee and reverence, Our teachers we'll discuss 'thout hesitance. Now first let 's pause a momente for to see How 'twas that teachers of such heigh degree In one small toun assembleth, unlesse The reason was the kind of sehole, I guesseg But who they be, and whif loved in this vale, Here will I say, withouten lenger tale. Mr. Olney : Now he was very bright and Wondrus Wyse, Yet he nas nat of large stature and syse. His virtues greate, his faults in sooth were-smalle, He was a very worthe man, with alle. Mrs. Byrd : And she is known abroad for worthinesse, From toun to toun-around the Werld, I guesse. And many a sacrifice did she make, And taught, and wrought, and lov 'd, al for our sake Miss Southwick: Now Miss Soothwieke the Engelish speeche she taughte A wondrus wit. upon hir friends she wroughteg But always she mixed werk and playe. We hope in this fair schcle she'll ever staye. Mr. Dodge : And he nas nat unknowe many a mile, No artful student could this man beguile. Wel grounded was he in astronomye, In physics, Greek, and in philosophye. Mr. Whitaker A gode clean fellawe, of stature bolde, Who never noon was known to scolde: Alle thinge with his greet forneys coude he. And alle science with his hedde thereto. M r. Ford : Wel grounded in science was Master Forde, And in his class ne one was ever borde, For when he spok, he made melodye Qliike sweet musik it seemed unto mye.D Miss Hunt : Thru Germane, Itale, France, and Spayne She wende, more lerninge for to gayne. Whan thot she return 'd she know such a heape Each night after the schole, she us would preche. Mr. Robertson : In Rooine Four was one with harte kinde, As true a friend as youlll ever findeg His life a fair ensarnple, us should be, To be as goode, and kinde and true as he. Miss Donoho : And this, another one, who love 'd to teaclie The tales that alle history bookes do preche. And somdel did we lern of nacion's tale From the tyme that it biganne, to its falle. Miss Dimmick: Another maid-yong, smyling, simple and coy E Hath holpen well to fill the schole with joy. And alle that she did was for the hestg She had greate fear hir act would other moleste. 7 Mr. Mickelson : And nie to hir is Marchant Michelsonne Who terms, and tymes, and tydes, from boke hath wonm And how to make the reck'ning he does techeg And how to be accurate, he does preche. Mr. Brown : W X An athlete was he at most famous renoun And he built up gymnastics in this toun. W Q Everichon him like 'd all confesse, More than a score of age, he was, I guesse. 5 ..,,. , f 3-,silk 5- f Jilmg' Mr. Patzwald: A man of tongues, forsooth of grete renoun, Took his abode in ilke litel toun, And many yeares very hard did werke The pupils, they ne never yet did sherke!

For the first time in the history of the Santa Barbara High School, Class Day is to be held on the Friday after Commencement. The whole program is symbolic of the harmony existing between school and student, teacher and student, and student with student. In carrying out this idea, the co-operation of the faculty and diierent classes has been obtained. The Seniors, after a due farewell from the steps of the High School, will pass, guided by the faculty, through the ranks of the Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors, into the full tide of life for which our High School has so carefully prepared them. COMMENCEMENT ODE. When travellers, journeying thro' a land unknown, Look up and sight afar a rock-lined chain Of crests that sharply out the horizon-gloam In distance, they press on to leave the plain, With eager hearts to gain the misty heights That soar aloft in beauty, cloud enveiled, On whose sharp, adamantine peaks, the rays Of luminous sunlight, quivering, are impaled. Eager, the pilgrims leave the flowery ways, And soon grow pale the lowland mirage-lights. The first spur gained, and now the mantling steeps Begin, that lead to highest mountain sweeps. We all are travellers in the bourneless land Of time. We glimpse, a moment, the Great Divide. To some is given to see the glow at hand- The Truth-that cloud-mists from the others hide. But if-as great white birds from crests that dart- Such vision hath illumined the traveller 's way, There i no turning back, no standing till, It leaves the yearning soul-reach in the heart, It bids us never rest, nor brook delay, But ever dare the event, the perils ill,- Push on, undaunted, till we face the gleam Where merge the world of Is and world of Seem. To-day we gain a foot-hill on the trail That upward leads, the landscape broadens out, We leave behind, below, the easeful vale, The distance-dwarfed fields that lie about. We stand at the Divide. God grant, that now It may be given that we, too, see the gleam That points the way-the individual goal. No time to fold the hands and wonder how, For lo! To-day is here, our little dole Of time, key-stone with which we, building, beam Fate 's arch, for Yesterday is gone-a dream, To-morrow, uncertain, a vision yet unseen.

CEditor's Note: The following article is taken from The Morning Press, April 6. To it has been added the casts and music used in the play.j The time is at hand when there will be two theatres, one for moral teach- ing, one for amusement for its own sake, thinks Metcalfe, dramatic critic for Life, Could he have seen the annual senior play of the high school last even- ing, at the crowded Potter theatre, he must have admitted that there are still a few dramas that delight and teach profoundly in the same hour. Last night's was the greatest triumph of the high school dramatics under the able direction of Mrs. Byrd, even surpassing the charm and acting appeal of last year's Quality Street . The selection of Prunella by Lawrence Housman and Granville Barker, was daring, for, with its abundance of crisp mots, of character parts, of comedy of situation, the symbolism mingled with a most acute and picturesque realism, is exceedingly subtle. The dances and choruses and the character parts make it technically practicable for high school production, but the beauty of inescapable lesson makes its mastery by a high school cast and presentation to a. student audience an event. of significance. The denouement was changed by Mrs. Byrd to fit the play for student pro- duction, so that her final truly poetic lines emphasized the theme of the drama, Love purged of self can never suffer ill . The literary quality of Prunella was appreciated by every member of the cast. Their diction was throughout the play such as to make the evening a delight to lovers of poetry. The standard set by Mrs. Byrd's past senior plays, has been quite beyond the attainment of any other secondary school, but in every detail last evening 's production outclassed previous efforts. The setting was declared by Manager Oallis of the Potter theatre the most artistic yet arranged by the high school. The formal Dutch garden, framed by a clipped cypress hedge, bordered by hollyhocks of pink and white, and tulips of yellow and red, both made by Madeleine Young's committee, and the real irises, combined to 'make a setting symbolic of the life of little clipped Prunella. In a corner stood a marble fountain with a statue of Love. A quaint English house fronted the garden, and its grey walls, well-stained, its leaded windows, and uneven beams under a red tiled roof, were a credit to the high school Manual Training work shop. Over the windows were trained real trail- ers and showers of Lady Banksia roses. The same care was betrayed in' costuming the play. The lettuce-green of Oallow, the bird-browns of Hawk, the scarlet hearts on Coquette's dress, and the black and rich reds of the Columbine Band were details that delighted all eyes in the stage pictures. Some veryoriginal dances, interpreting the motifs of the play, and some striking tableaux were achieved under Miss Hope Weston's direction. She came from Ounmock School of Expression in Los Angeles to train the dancers. q The tableau at the end of the second act was extremely effective and mer- THE OLIVE AND GOLD 15 ited the enthusiastic call it received. During its second presentation, the beauty of the scene was enhanced by the showers of roses that were thrown from the senior boxes, mingling with those with which the Mummers pelted the newly initiated Pierrette.

Every personality fitted the character, and a better-balanced production by amateurs would be far to seek. So perfectly did Prunella fit her part that her life-story seemed merely to be coming true before our eyes, like The Man-in-the-Moon . The high school senior who could do Pierrot was another Ufindi' that proved that fine Hair for acting talent that the dramatic director has made a nine years' wonder to Santa Barbara. Even the hired tenor looked his part of Oxford Don. The acting of Robin Osborne as Pierrot challenged comparison with profes- sional standards. His voice was clear but of alluring timber and equally sympathetic in expressing humorous tolerance, tragic remorse, or tender yearn- ing. He has unusual stage presence, and the rare gift of gesture. His whole body iiowed into the lines of the emotion he portrayed. Serious study, combined with intelligence and imagination of a high order resulted in a delicacy and subtlety of interpretation that deserves to be called art. His Pierrot gradually became, from a self-centered man of the world-not villainous, not weak, merely selfish-a living soul who understood. The naivette of Prunella, her purity and innocent love of life, her yielding to Pierrot's desire to open the garden gate and waken her, to open her eyes and see-to become free-were all conveyed by Miss Hazel Dewing with a poignancy that brought tears to the eyes. At the end, when she returns home, the part was acted with great discretion. There was no bedraggled Pierrette, her modesty down at the heel , no tragic, lost Prunella, but infinite pathos in the interpretation of a little winged thing, broken on the wheel of life, scarce aware what has so hurt her. A less extravagant word than wonderful can scarcely be used of Miss Dewing's perfect conception of the title part. There was nothing amateurish in her manner to detract from the charm of her acting. The second lead among male characters might easily have been overdone by Frederick J anney, but he gave in facial expression and in voice, exactly the right note to the part of Scaramel, the man of affairs, who furnishes such com- panions and pleasures as his master requires for his diversion. 'Whenever a weakness toward consideration for others comes into his master's mind, Scara- s -1 E no 1: IQZEH 5AAOZI 9G H 'Bugm qo U!

Yet, the villainy is not repulsive, not more to him than a matter of business. Extremely clever acting carried a modern scamp across the footlights to an appreciative audience. A great hit was made by the aunts of Prunella. Each part was carefully individualized. Miss Josephine Morgan, as Prude, had the audience from the time she appeared in the garden. Her fussy dictatorial way and her use of her hands were inimitable. As character Work, her acting left nothing to be de- sired. Miss Rose Coughlin looked to the life Prim, the most correct aunt . Her old-fashioned gown of purple silk was most becoming, and her angular rigid back, unforgettable. The interpretation of Privacy , the aunt who remains in the for- lorn garden waiting for Prunella's return, was a fine bit of acting. Miss Mar- tha Graham 's voice exactly suited the part and she was careful not to overact when she discovers that the man who has bought her house is he who lured Prunella away. Sincerity and artistic appreciation of proportion marked every moment of Miss Graham's admirable work. She was well supported by her maid, Quaint, Miss Katherine Sweetser. The rasping voice of Quaint, relieving her mind to Scaramel, and in the epi- grams of practical sense she utters to her mistress, was a tremendous hit. The other maid, Miss Ruth Sentell, looked her rebuke to familiarity, every moment she was on the stage. The opening scene of the gardeners three was an effective bit of character work. John Newton 's interpretation of the rustic who knows it all was most faithful. His use of shoulders and legs was exceptional acting. So was the characterization of an old man by John Northrop. His cackling laugh was a touch of realism, and his facial expression surprisingly good for an amateur. The younger gardener was given a sympathetic impersonation by Harold Wright. But the character that held the house every moment that he was on the stage was Boy, as played by Earle Wall. With his bare feet and tousled head, his nimble tongue, and his little bird song, he seemed the real boy captured for the occasion. The audience probably did not realize the bravery displayed by Miss Mabel Nelson in undertaking the part of the Statue of Love. It demanded keeping a pose and holding up a violin through three acts. She was the real heroine of the evening. Everything had been done for her comfort, as to mechanical arrangements, etc., by Mr. Whittaker of the Manual Training, but the ability to sustain such a part is rare indeed. The effect of the cun- ningly arranged amber lights upon the statue was one of the aesthetic delights of the evening. Mlr. Coast, the noted artist, especially commended the toning of the greys and the general eiects of the Statue of Love. The atmosphere of the play was created by the Mumimers, who were on the stage more than half the time. Their parts were wonderfully individual- ized, and what might have proved a mere puppet-show, became, through the training of Miss Mary Overman, a thing of symbolic beauty. The Hawk 20 THE OLIVE AND GOLD of Will Lopez was at times startlingly ,realisticg the ditlicult role of Kennel was well taken by Dean Nichols, the Mouth of James Thompson could not be betteredg Henry Carty's Callow was youth incarnate . Miss Strait was an exquisite French Doll , her entrance in Act III was especially fine. Miss Brown 's real beauty and charm were well disguised in TaWdry . Miss Knox's Ooquette was characterized by especially fine interpretation in Act III. Miss Smith was a veritable Ramp , Thus, through action, dance, and melody, the Mummers forwarded the theme: The pleasures of the sense are but fleeting pleasures, withal. The musical motivation of the play was also under the direction of Miss Overman, and many of the melodies were wrought out by her: the serenade, Little bird in your nest, are you there? , the Mummer's Invitation, Sleeper, awake, arise, look out! , and the Incantation of Act III. This minor transpo- sition of the happy Invitation of Act II had a haunting cadence and tone- color that reminded of the witches' chant in Macbeth. - The Columbine Band deserves great credit for the way that they stayed in the pictureiand were always in the game Whether in the center or in the back- ground. One of the surprises of the evening was the melodic emotion of the aria written by Miss Pauline Finley of the Senior class for Pierrot's recitative. Another occasion for Senior pride was Elmer Sample's music for the Mum- mer's song. This bringing out of talent is, perhaps, the finest by-product of the play. In this relation, it is well to note that the house, fountain, and stage-setting were designed by the students under the general supervision of Mrs. Byrd and the special supervision of the department heads, the costumes were designed by Miss Esther Howard and Miss Leila Smith, and made by Goldstein. The house itself was gay with banners and streamers, and the Juniors lent a merry note with clever songs and joshes. Albert Janssens, with baton, wound with class colors, led with spirit, Miss Elsa E. Wilson was accompaniste. Miss Dimmick, Junior class teacher, may well feel proud of the class of 1914. , 11- i.li THE HORIZON'S CALL.

Another Senior Play has passed into memory, and with its passing has come to me renewed faith in the power of young hearts and minds to under- stand and encompass the highest in literature, and to interpret it to others. The production of Prunella has been to the class of 1913 an epoch- making experience. Its searching criticism of life, its poignant evaluation of things in the eternal scale, must give us pause. But before the experience can be complete a word is necessary, to thank the good friends who so materially helped in making Prunella a success- Mr. Olney, our principal, always in the background, but ever to be called upon, Mr. Whittaker, who made our rare stage-setting a practical possibility, Miss Hunt, whose attractive posters and printed matter secured for us pub- licityg Miss Southwick, Miss Donoho, Miss Keech, and Miss Overman for their unselfish work before the play, and during the performance. Miiss Keech co-operated with Miss Overman in the arrangement of the music and gave of her time and talent generously, Miss Overman 's loyal sup- port and understanding spirit is so bound up with the play itself that we can never think of the one without the other. We thank Miss Weston of the Cumnock School of Los Angeles for her excellent coaching in dancing and for her general helpfulness, and Miss Jones of the same institution for her kindly help on the night of the play. Another good friend whose council was often sought is Mrs. Leila Weekes Wilson, an authority on things dramatic. To Mrs. Cooke and Miss Steadman we are indebted for the loan of beauti- ful stone seats. Very many others assisted us in ways that will live in our memories. We are especially grateful to those ladies who stripped their gardens ot' flowers and even of whole trees. Within the class itself we found the finest spirit of eo-operation-the cast with its unfailing good-nature and genius for hard work, the committees with their excellent judgment, Frederick Janney, William Lopez, and Elmer Sample for the making of the scenery, Miss Esther Howard, Miss Leila Smith, and Miss Madeleine Young for their work in designing and art, Herbert Wheeler, Paul Morse, Clyde Scott, and Hazel Bean for yeoman service in preparing the stage, and the management for its expeditious business methods. Manager Wall has justified the trust reposed in him by his class. In all, Prunella has been a character-revealing experience quite well worth while. -Jane Carroll Byrd. A WORD FROM THE MANAGEMENT. The Senior Play has this year netted a clear SB500.00, which will be added to the Scholarship Fund, the receipts being 875.00 more than ever before. The Management takes this opportunity of thanking those who have helped to make the play a financial success. We certainly appreciate the cour- THE OLIVE AND GOLD tesy and co-operation of the Potter Theatre Management, which put up with many inconveniences to the end of artistic success for us. We are greatly indebted to the newspapers for their part in advertising the play, especially the Morning Press, which gave of its valuable space most generously. Among the students who helped the play financially by disposing of the tickets, those that deserve especial mention are: Homer Duffy, who sold tickets to the amount of 883.005 Ruth Long, 376.005 and Lilias Smith, 324.00 We are likewise indebted to the members of the printing department-Audrey Beatty, Herold Weidman, John Holt, and Henry Carty-for their work on programs and tickets. Herbert Wheeler proved an etiicient Assistant Manager, as well as a hard worker, and Mr. Mickelson rendered valuable assistance in the disposal of tickets, settling with the Potter Management, and auditing thc accounts of the play. We certainly appreciate the interest takenhby the public in the play, and thank them in full measure. The Senior Class is, indeed, indebted to Mrs. Byrd, without whose help the play would be impossible. Her patience and untiring efforts in our behalf will not be soon forgotten. Our thanks are an insufficient reward, her real reward lies in the knowledge of a work well done.

CA Local Sketch., It was a crumbling old adobe, and it stood in the heart of town. The garden around it was kept with care. A fountain in the courtyard spurted the water higher, ever higher, to let it fall again in silvery drops. Daily, a little old lady walked among the flowers. Always beside the foun- tain she lingered longest. This was Senora Dominguez. The old abobe had been the father's home before hers. It was the place to which he had brought his dark-eyed bride nearly three score years ago. Sefiora Dominguez was alone now, and she clung to the house and its garden as to a friend. Slower than usual today she walked, and longer she lingered beside the fountain, dipping her fingers in its bowl and drawing them out again to watch the sun catch the rainbow glints in the water drops as they fell back again. She had not thought that they would take her home away. To be sure, she had borrowed the money upon which she had lived all the sad years since her hus- band death. Already her things had been moved to the little room on the third floor of the modern building next door. The rooms that she had romped through in childhood stood empty and bare. Tomorrow they would begin to tear the old place down. The men with their coarse boots would come and trample her sweet flowers underfoot. She had taken the little room next door because it looked down upon her garden and her house. She would watch them until they disappeared. At twilight she bade her home good-by. The tears coursed down her withered, wrinkled cheeks and mingled their salty drops with the sweet ones that fell from the fountain. She was old, and childish to care so much, but she would miss the low-ceiled friendly rooms, she would miss the place where the plaster had fallen away and the brown adobe peeped through. She could not tell what she would miss' the most, she only knew that she would miss it all. Seiora Dominguez passed through the gate for the last time, and slowly with almost tottering steps walked the short distance to her new home. That night, the first night, her heart was heavy. Soon the Seriora drew her chair to the open window and sat down. Slowly the stars began to twinkle out in the sky, and somewhere a cricket chirped. She had always watched the stars come out. Tonight, they seemed different. Her whole small world was changed. Seiiora Dominguez away from home! No 'more would its friendly adobe Walls protect her, its windows stood now, staring out into the evening dusk, dark and bare. And her garden, the garden of her childhood! She could smell its scented splendor in the dewy air, while below her in the court- yard, she could hear the fountain dripping. Slowly the old, gray head bowed down on the window sill. It was nighttime and she was alone under an alien roof. The moon rose and its slanting beams fell on the bowed, white head of Seiiora Dominguez, but she heeded it not, for silently and quietly with the sound of her beloved fountain in her ears, her lonely spirit had found its home. S Edna Peterson, '14, THE OLIVE AND GOLD 1 'Weller PRUNELl..A AS STAGED BY MISS SOUTHWICK. EVERY WOMAN HER OWN PIERROT! IS THE MOTTO OF GRACE' RUTH SOUTHWICK! Miss Grace Ruth Southwick, who evidently believes in never doing things regularly, was in Room 7, correcting notebooks long after the building had been deserted and locked up for the night. Pangs of hunger made her aware that it had begun to grow dark, and her mind lightly turned to thoughts of dinner, with a capital D. With a firm and resolute stride she proceeded to leave the building, When lo! the doors were all closed and the windows were fast! In desperation she tried doors, windows, skylights, everything she could think of to gain her freedom, but all in vain. At last in Miss Dimmick's room she found a window unlocked. Now, in the callow days of her youth, Miss Southwiek had read many a stirring tale of fair damsels, imprisoned in high towers, and of their thrilling escape by the means of sheets made into ropes. But the only sheets that she could find were sheets of foolscap, so she gave up her romantic dreams. THE OLIVE AND GOLD 27 Nothing daunted, she began to take stock of the situation. She remem- bered a certain fire-drill scene in the Senior play, and at once decided to be her own Pierrot and gain her freedom a la Prunella. In the basement she found the identical ladder--solid mahogany, riveted with iron-yea, riveted to earth, it seemed. It was an awkward, heavy ladder, with a determination all its own. It stubbornly refused to ascend the stairs, but the superior will power of Miss Southwick prevailed, and the ladder was led Cleadb to the window. Miss Southwick shoved the ladder through the windowg and, balancing her- self on-the window-sill, she let the bottom swing towards the ground. Alas, it hung free, several feet above the ground! Now began a nice adjustment of balances, as Miss Southwick swung the ladder out far enough so that when she dropped it, its top might fall against the building. Backward and forward on the daintily poised forefingers coyly moved the ladder, up and down in rhythmic response moved the dainty feet of our fair perceptress. All her mechanical training at Lick was brought to bear, and she landed the ladder with the precision of a master--five feet below the window!!! After the manner of the afore-mentioned romantic story-tellers, we will now draw a curtain over the scene. Suffice it to say that our heroine appeared next morning at school none the worse for the wear. But it is only fair to all parties to add that the great stone sill of the window in Miss Dimmick's room is rent by an awful crack.

Heedless of the afternoon sun which beat down upon his well-kept pompadour, a handsome young man in immaculate flannels dangled his long, shapely limbs from the County Club pier. Plunged in moody con- templation, his unseeing eyes looked out over the fleet of regatta yachts, riding at anchor, he puffed soberly at an allQconsoling pipe unmindful of his brother's cat-boat bobbing toward him like a cork. The solegoccupant of this baby-craft was a sun-burned youngster who handled it with the skill of a veteran. Hello, Hugh! . greeted the boy as he put in close to the wharf, ain't you goin' out? No, was the gruff response. Huh! I 'spose you ain't made up with Jean.', Hugh pulled at his pipe in silence. That's what you get for lettin' a girl sail 'Mischiefi You might Fa'--known she'd run you aground. Good thing the tide was rising or you'd be stuck on Sandy Point yet, unless you got out and walked, he laughed. The sound of a piano from the club-house reached Hugh 's ears. He stirred restlessly. I Say, Admiral, he called to the youngster in the boat, put me aboard 'Mischieff Jump, then. Hugh dropped daintily into the boat and found room for his limbs by draping them over the centerboard well. Changed your mind? queried the Admiral. No, going to take a nap in the cabin where it's quiet. Don't blame you. Jean's piano playing makes me weary, too. I'm glad she's only our cousin, aren't you? I'd hate to have a sister like that. Why, she don't know a halyard from a reef point! Oh, yes she does, corrected his brother sharply enough, I've taught her some points and she's mighty quick, too. She'd been all right in about a week if I hadn't-I' Taken her head off for runnin' you aground this morning. But, gee! I know how you felt, there's nothing makes a fellow so mad as to have a mutt do some fool thing in his boat. I tried to explain that to Jean but nothin' doin'. , What did she say? Oh, you ain't in it anymore. She told me she'd never go out in your old boat again. The boy jammed the tiller over hard and ran up under the lee-side of '4Mischief.', I Come and take me oif when the sunset gun's fired, drawled Hugh as he lazily swung himself into the yacht. The youngster nodded and went bobbing away into the channel. THE OLIVE AND GOLD i 29 Gee! It must be tough on Hugh to have Jean sore at him, mused the Admiral, as he tacked back and forth among the yachts. 'tWish I could help him out. He glanced toward the pier. There sat Jean alone, just where he had found Hugh fifteen minutes before. All of a sudden it leaped into his mind- Say, J., don't you want to take a sail? 0h! I'd love to. ,May 1'1 Look out for your head! Now we're fixed. Say, ain't this some breeze? They were off but how could he get her on board his brother's yacht? If she would only- I believe I could sail 'Mischief' all by myself, pouted Jean, even though Hugh- Called you a lobster, grinned the boy. No, it wasn't so much what he said-He was very rude and detesta- ble. I didn't dream he had such a temper. I'd just like to show him and you, too, that I do know something about sailing his old boat. Then why don't you? suggested the Admiral quietly, I'll help you make sail, and they neared the yacht 's side. I will, she exclaimed, jumping up with sudden determination. Sit down, he yelled with all the ridiculous thunder of his little voice. Jean obeyed meekly, thinking that little boys are quite as awful in boats as grown-up ones. Now, you hang on while I make sail, he ordered. Before Jean knew it she .found herself steering Mischief into the sparkling blue channel. She laughed at the Sandy Point buoy as she raced by, and wondered how she ever ran aground, for there stretched the bar, only three feet under water, clear to the shore. t'Oh, how delighful ! she cried as the spray dashed over the bow. Alone in a beautiful boat, with a ripping breeze and sailing away, away, away, toward the 'portals of the sunset'. On and on, fascinated as one in a dream, she sailed. The sun sank lower and lower and with it fell the breeze, until the yacht lay motionless, like a gull, upon the placid waters now a rippling sheen of amethyst. Absorbed in contemplation of the sunset, Jean was startled by the rising of the cabin hatch, a white-clad figure sprang on deck. So that was how she had been trapped! She turned her back on the intruder. Swell sunset! ventured Hugh, lazily swinging himself to the cabin deck. Wind often dies down with the sun and docsn't come up till-.sun rise. A wicked twinkle came into his eye. Jean looked steadily out to sea. Might as well whistle for a breeze. Forthwith, he began to whistle-such a medley of tunes! If a selfLre- specting breeze had been anywhere about, it would have fled for its life. Jean neither saw nor heard, she kept her face toward the setting sun. A 30 THE OLIVE AND GOLD damp mist settled down over the ocean, bringing with it a disagreeable chill. Hugh dived down into the cabin and reappeared with woolen sweaters. You'd better get into one of these, he said, holding out a jaunty crim- son jacket. She ignored him absolutely. Then we'11 freeze together, he remarked blithely, and went forward to light the ship 's lantern. And there he remained. After the manner of the eternal feminine, as the night grew apace, Jean began to pity herself. A tear crept from under her lashes and trickled down her nose. - Just then there was a stir in the air, the boom creaked. Ah, a breeze! It must be near dawn, exclaimed Hugh impersonally, but he knew well that it was only a few minutes after light. Jean lay her hand on the wheel and Mischief swung about, pointing toward a beacon on the bluffs. That's the Hueneme light you're heading for, observed Hugh coming aft, the Club Wharf is starboard. But Juan kept the course unchanged for a quarter of an hour, just to show that she knew what she was doing, then laid for the Country Club pier. Now steer a straight course and we'll be in in ten minutes, Hugh ad- vised. He was sitting up forward keeping a look out for the Sandy Point buoy, and secretly admiringher skill in handling the boat. HI say, J ean-I 'm awfully sorry 'I was such a chump this morning. He waited expectantly, but no response came., I wish-I wish-you'd forgive me. Won't you? A long pause. Oh, well, I don't suppose you care a straw, but I'm going to tell you something that I - Without an instant's warning, the great boom swung around with tre- mendous force, struck Hugh full in the chest and hurled him into the inky waters. At the same moment, Mischief grazed the buoy and swung out channelward. For a second Jean sat paralyzed, stricken, then started to her feet calling: I-Iugh! Hugh! Hugh! Back and forth she cruised for over half an hour, but the waters returned no answer, and the Wind mockingly blew her agonized cries back into her face. At last she made for the Clubhouse pier, pain and horror in her heart. As she drew near, she was amazed to hear music, and catch a glimpse of the dancers in the ballroom. It wasn't morning after all! But how could they dance when Hugh- Watch out there! rang out the voice of the Admiral. Put her hard over! Bully landing! shouted the boy as Mischief touched the steps. Jean staggered to the deck. A hand reached out of the darkness and drew her up. Hugh! she joyfully gasped, I thought- and she sobbed and laughed in his arms. How in the world-did you-get here? You landed me on Sandy Point and I walked! Marjorie Grey Ruiz, Junior College I. THE OLIVE AND GOLD A STORM. COE Santa Barbara Channel.D The heavens were shrouded dark by threatening clouds, A fearful tempest hovered in the air, Upon the shore, the fishermen alarmed, With busied, hurried steps ran to and fro. A deafening peal of thunder rent the sky, The frenzied, maddeued winds roared wild through space And scarcely could be heard, above the din. The shouted orders of the men, as still, In frantic haste, they hurried to and fro, The threatened boats at anchor in the bay, Were lightly tossed and played about, as though But toy balloons in thoughtless, childish hands 3 While unfurled sails were shipped to shreds, Yet still the mighty thunder rolled and roared 5 The vivid, blinding lightning-flashes seemed To rend great gashes in the purple breast Of ocean 's billowy tide. With frighten 'd cries The helpless seagulls sought the shelving coast, While some were caught by the relentless winds And dashed against the wooden piles to meet A sudden death. Anon the storm would cease, To gather greater power, and there again, In boisterous fury break, as if to hurl All in its reach into the foaming waves. How grand! How awful! How sublime the sight Of warring winds and wild tempestuous sea! But ah! How weak is man in time like this! As swiftly as it came so did it end: The thunder died, the hostile winds were still, The silent star-lit sky looked calmly down Upon the crested ocean 's settling tide, That, crashing broke against the rocky shore And proudly left its line of wreckage there. Katharyn Brown, 13 32 THE OLIVE AND GOLD FOR VALOR. A pregnant, ominous quiet hung over the bush. Not a leaf stirred on the tall, eucalyptus trees whose gaunt, bleached trunks stretched up and up, shutting out the day from the dim forest. On the edge of the woods, where the sparse trees shrunk back from the dry grass that extended as far as the eye could see, a dingo ran restlessly to and fro, sniffing the air, the only living thing in sight. Suddenly the dingo raised its head, and emitting a long whine of warning to the pack, dashed like a streak through the tall trees. ' Over a low rise of ground, a little cavalcade of horsemen swept sud- denly into view. The bright sunlight glanced on the helmets and revolver butts of the mounted troopers from Sydney, and glistened on the ebony backs of their black trackers. -On reaching the edge of the wood, the troopers separated, each with his back tracker going in different directions into the land of the never, never. As Captain Roberts, chief of the Australian mounted police, urged his horse from the open land in through the trees, he felt a strange pre- entiment. The Captain was not imaginative nor sensitive to chance im- pressions. Indeed, in 1864, he was regarded as the most relentless and cold-blooded sleuth that ever ran down a bush out-law. But today, for the first time in his life, he felt a most peculiar sense of depression. It could not be the fear of personal danger, for danger and he were bed- fellows, it was rather an unaccountable sense of failure foredoomed. The captain drew his revolver, looked it over carefully, and held it in readi- ness. The black tracker, working on ahead through the tall grass, had not yet struck the scent, but it was well, when running down a man like Quicksilver , the infamous bush-ranger, to take every precaution. The tracker dropped to his knees and crawled along for several paces, examining the ground closely. Apparently satisfied, he arose and ap- proached 'the captain. Him gone billabong, he said laconically, pointing to the West. Good, Maluka! We shall have our man by nightfallf' ,The captain turned his horse's head in the direction indicated. The billabong , a shallow water-hole in the heart of the bush, lay in silence, reflecting without a quiver the dappled moonlight that filtered down through the wattles, edging its banks V As Roberts approached, the place seemed deserted, but the trooper knew that here he had trapped his quarry, for Maluka had tracked the man to within fifty yards of this place, and Maluka had yet to fail. Keeping well within the shadow, revolver in hand, the captain crept along, step by step toward a huge boulder at the farther end of the hollow. As Roberts peered around the boulder, he saw the dying embers of a camp fire. Stretched out beside it in his blanket, lay a man asleep. Surely THE OLIVE AND GOLD 33 not a sight to cause the captain's revolver to fall unheeded from his un- nerved fingers, he had expected to find his man here- But a tiny flame had leapt up from the dying embers and had flashed upon the upturned face of the sleeper-a face almost boyish in its frank- ness, yet strong for good or for ill-a face, that with the long scar of a Hindoo saber cut on the cheek, had been blazoned on Roberts's memory by the awful flashlight of battle. As the captain stood paralyzed by the recognition, the changing fire- light caught ea small bright object that shone on the sleeper's rought coat -a bronze Victoria Cross. He was not near enough to see the letters, but his mind read that inscription as plainly as if it were written in Ere: For Valor, To Benjamin Hall, 1854. The Australian bush faded from his vision. Before him passed a vivid panorama in quick review. Again he was in the midst of the wild In- dian jungle, in that well-remembered ambush of the Sepoy Rebellion. He caught the flash of uniforms through the trees, as horses stumbled and riders went crashing down, never to rise again, he heard again, on every side, the hoarse shouts of officers, trying to Scope with death. He saw him- self, the captain of the company, A go down with his wounded horse, and he saw the young color-sergeant crashing to his assistance through the tangled undergrowth. He could see the young color-bearer now as he assisted his wounded officer to mount his own horse, then dash for the clearing, and, with his standard-pike as a weapon, beat his way through the enemy to safety. Somewhere off in the distance, a dingo whined complaininglyg the captain awoke from his revery with a start. The awful present flashed into his brain like a knife-stab at the heart. So this was the man 'whom they called Quicksilver , the man whom the police at Sydney knew only as a dangerous out-law. And this man, who had risked his life a score of times that his country 's flag might not bite the dust, was now a fugitive from justice whom it was the captain's plain duty to arrest. v Captain Roberts's code admitted no deviation from duty, but, out here in the forest solitude, the laws of man seemed' dwarfed beside the law of common humanity. , . Yes, there would be some sacrifice, of course. He would return to Sydney, resign his position in the police, and-well, what matter what should happen then? Maluka, the silent, would guard his secret with his life. ' As Captain Roberts turned to go, he stooped over quietly, almost tenderly, looked long and earnestly at the face before him. Manliness was written there and bravery, and reckless daring. He would still carry 34 THE OLIVE AND GOLD in his grateful heart, that face with the scar of a Hindu sabre-cut. Suddenly the captain sprang back with a cry of horror. He was just in time. A glistening dart shot out, a narrow shining band unwound itself from Hall's neck and glided swiftly through the grass. The captain reverently bowed his head. The Greater Justice had in- tervened. Josephine Morgan, '13, LIFE IS EVER LORD OF DEATH. C Upon reading Milton.J The dull, black moment 's pause-the light-and then Full liquid notes, from regions far removed, Sang songs of rest and slumber to his soul. It lured his tired spirit far away In chariot light of golden, molten song. And ever as he mounted in his flight Bright rosy hues, and lights, and glancing shapes- All brooded o'er with tender shadows warm, And born of light and darkness--flitted 'round. Soft music, sweet, poured out from lips unseen, Celestial music, rather felt than heard, In heart-throbs and in picture melodies: Life is the soul bound down to earth in chains, But death is life, set free, and born again. The death-born soul from bondage newly freed, A moment paused on shimmering cloud, until The last of earth was purged in heav'nly flame: And thus another soul was born to bliss. Hazel Smith, '13. THE OLIVE AND GOLD 35 THE FORGED CHOCK CHEE. Fan quail fan quai! fan-n-n quail Louder and louder grew the revengeful wail as the angry, disgusted San Quan uttered the words. He had the tchock chee, why were the Ameri- can devil-men so against his race? Would he give up the treasured document to Jim Yah who had the pretty young wife? Fan quai, you 'll not get me! Sudden, as had been the tempest of rage, now settled the impenetrable calm.. San Quan took his long opium pipe and perched himself upon the high teak stool in the poorly lighted and poorly ventilated room. Slowly the opium smoke made dense the atmosphere, nothing was visible save a bent and drooping figure veiled in oriental mysticismg no sound was audible ex- cept an occasional puff which sent a dragon-like curl of smoke through the air, searching an escape. San Quan was beatifically translated into another land. Just as the red sun dropped behind the Temple and the veil of dusk de- scended, little San Quan and his grandmother wended their way to their worship, Passing through the narrow business section, with its singular construction and its mass of curious wares, the two entered a shop where altars with burning incense, and altars supporting large and small idols, filled the room-all sacrifices and images of their ancestors were to be pur- chased here by the worshipers. With a newly secured receptacle, some punk-sticks, and incense, San Quan and his grandmother now hastened on among the thronging crowds in the dusk, to the temple. San Quan was only a little chap and held tightly to his old grandmother's hand. She dragged him up the dark stairs, and they entered the odorous building. 'Here as they worshiped. bowing and burning offerings to their Happy God, he saw again the Big Merchant's little girl. How happy she seemed! Did the gods love her? Why did he not love to worship as she did? She offered her incense never looking to right or left. Nervously, he lighted his punk-sticks, one eye watching his ancient grandmother, the other taking in the dainty small worshiper. She glanced up, their eyes met, and San Quan, delighted, yet abashed blushed a deep Eastern hue. He did not stop to pray, but shot from the temple as though the great War Dragon were after him. Down to the black river he ran and, exhausted, threw himself down upon the sand. Here in the night he dreamed and dreamed until fatigue overcame him, he fell asleep, lapped by the ripple of Water at his feet. Before him lay a broad expanse of water-cool, alluring, beautiful yet treacherous, beyond it lay a beach of golden sandy and back of all were glorious sun-kissed mountains. With its spreading trees, its clear, clean golden sa-nd, it was a true story-book picture, with foreign white children frolicking about, building sand-forts, wading, and playing a strange game in which they funnily tapped each other on the backs and ran as though mad with glee. i N. B.-' Foreign devil. iRegistered certihcate. 36 THE OLIVE AND GOLD Suddenly the Dream God took the picture away. San Quan awoke with a start. A bright moon played on the water. He rubbed his dazed eyes-Where was he? Gathering himself together, he made his way home- wards. Weeks passed, and every day San Quan worshiped, but now he prayed to see his beautiful dream-river. Still he thought of the Big Mer- chant's little girl. Had she ever seen such beautiful pictures? In the morning as he knelt silently to the Sacred Rock in his grandmother's garden, with head bent low to the ground, he uttered an incessant prayer, Make me 'to love thee, ' rock of my grandfather! Make me to wor- ship as She worships On that happy day when her father brought her to his grandmother's house, she herself told him what the happy dream meant. It was America, the far away country to which her father was going soon, but he would come back. O, yes ,-and she babbled on about the time and the place of his going. Her father could go to America, he was a privileged personage, he was a Big Merchant. No, San Quan could never live in that land, chock chees could no longer be got, and without this no man could stay. The Big Merchant sailed to America. San Quan crept in among the freight, quiet as a mouse, in the hold of the ship. Once in mid-ocean all was well. On the last night of the voyage as San Quan lay hid among the coils of rope, he pondered much on the things that had been told him by the wily Sing Chuck, the supposed stoker of the ship, but in reality the self- appointed helper of his race. San Quan felt in his blouse and his slim fingers touched the treasured chock chee that would make all things easy for him at the devil-Custom-Oiiice. V Ah, yes, it had been all too easy! O 0 1 Il 1 if K 1' it if Il ll 177 ' . The opium pipe had slipped to the floor unheeded. Now, dazed, grown-up San Quan opened his eyes, slowly, yet widely. Before him smoke-mysterious opium vapors, but beyond them- He slipped the long-stemmed pipe again between his lips, the opium was of no avail, it could not cheat as it had of yore. f Suddenly a tap sounded at the door, Jim Yah crept stealthily into the room. He touched his forehead to the floor. San Quan, the American devil-men are after me, harbor me! Help me! Oh the fan quai1If only I could remain, my little wife refuses to return to China. I must stay! V San Quan slowly smiled, his little yellow face shone in the darkness. Yes, the Happy God was with him! He was bent over his lighted incense.-- Yes, Happy God of my ancestors, I will come back. Keep her, the Big Merchant's little girl. Soon will I be in the land of my fathers! He arose, handed over the coveted chock chee to the trembling Jim Yah, and slipped out into the night. - Florence Pierce, Junior College English I. 4 THE 'SOULfCAlJL.

Well, Reddingford, I'm leaving the city tomorrow, for a few daysf' Dr. Townsend poured some white powder into a glass and stirred it care- fully. But, Doctor, protested Reddingford in an unsteady voice, I've always depended on' you to pull me through a scrape like this. Red- dingford's bleared eyes batted weakly, his voice rose and fell in an un- steady cadence. V Perhaps, if I hadn't pulled you through so many times, you wouldn't have taken such big chances. The doctor's face was stern, but his eyes burned with a kindly, fatherly light. Have you ever considered what your father would think if he could come back into this old house and find you, a' Reddingford, like this? It would be tough on the governor, all right. Well, Alfred, I'm going to stand out from under. You break with the Cowper crowd, or you break with me. Doctor Townsend passed slowly down the marble steps. He glanced back and sighed heavily. I Alfred Reddingford's mother sat in her boudoir and held her soft hands while her maid arranged her hair for dinner. Alfred Reddingford stretched himself out on a window seat and blew rings of smoke toward the ceiling of his studio. James, what kind of a bunch of good-for-nothingness am I? Pardon, Sir? The valet looked at his master doubtfully. Were you speaking tome, sir? Yes, I said I am good-for-nothing. It is healthier, sir, to have a good opinion of yourself, sir. But I'm not in a healthy state of mind, James. All I've to say, sir, is, that it's healthier to be in a healthy state of mind, sir. James, above all things, don't try to be funny! Pardon, sir. The facts remain-I am a good-for-nothing, lying around here try- ing to kill time. Some think, sir-- Some think! Why, nobody thinks now-a-days, James, unless it's scheming mammas. Some of them think I'd be a fine catch - A dignified butler appeared in the door way, balancing a salver. He handed it to James and stood erect, waiting. Reddingford picked up the card languidly and read: 'Hubert Cowperf I wonder what he wants now. He arose and walked slowly toward the door. He paused in front of a canvas on which there were the faint suggestions of a chi1d's face. Something about the picture arrested his attention.

How do you do that? With my brushes, dabbling at pictures. I used to try to kill time at the club, but now- 0-oh, but do you really kill time? No. I only wound it 5-and then it hangs heavy, heavy--all about, for, before I knew what I was doing, I brokeithe wings of time and now -it neither dies nor flies away. How funny you talk. You sound like you was saying a piece. Say it again. H What did I say? But he still looked off into space. p Pardon, sir. Doctor Townsend. James stood beside his master, waiting. 'I ' ,5 Show him up, James. Show him up. The artist slowly withdrew his eyes from the distant mountains. He is here, sir. Well, here' my little man, painted to look like an angel. How goes it, Alfred? And the doctor swept him with a keen professional glance. ljiilgi Doctor, I'm feeling perfectly great. He looked down at the brushes in his hand and continued quite consciously, I've been almost decent for three whole days. Pardon, sir, James held out a card. Reddingford took it, read it, and flushed. Don't mind me, Alfred. I'm going now anyway. The Doctor moved toward the door. Don't go, Doctor, it's Cowper. James, tell him that I'm not at home. Doctor Townsend laid his hand caressingly on Reddingford's shoulder. It's better than a tonic! Keep it up. Good-day. And he was gone. When Reddingford turned back into the studio, he found Willie with his sensitive brows puckered in thought. A What's the row, Willie? You told James to tell somebody that you were not at home. Isn't this your home? Yes, but henceforth I shall not be at home to that particular some- body. ' ' p ,, tl, 40 THE OLIVE AND GOLD This 'is your home and you are here, but still you're 'hot at home? I doh't understand that! . I suspect, Wee Willie, that there are a good many things you don't understand. ' ' J But it sounds like-like- Like what! n My Papa says that it's wicked to tell fibs, ibut , and 'his 'big eyes questioned,N hie seemed ,glad 'cause -you said you wasn't home. No, Willie, your father was glad 'because I didn't go down and see Cowperf' H But why did you tell James to tell him you were not 'at home? Why didn't you 'tell him you didn't want 'to see him? Why, Willie, he explained, painstakingly, that woiildn't do at all. It would hurt his feelings. You see, that's what James was really telling him when he said I iwasn't here. Well, 'that's a funny way of doing things. Well, suppose Tommy Somebody-or-other kept coming and 'coming to see you and you didn't want to play with him, what would you do? Reddingford waited really anxiously for the answer. Well,-I'd ask him what he wanted, and then I d say4'I didn't want to play 'with him ! ' Then he would ask you why, and what yould you say? h. iiW'hy-er-I don't know. But I wouldn't let him 'think I was 'fraid of im. O--oh. Alfred Reddingford murmured slowly. You 'think that Cowper will think I'm afraid of 'hiiht' But 'it isn't so 'easy 'to say, 'XI don't care to play with you,' to Hubert Cowper. You don't know Cowper. Willie. You ean't talk to him as you can to some people. He was 'really arguing lit oiit with himself. Is :he older ithan you? Um-ah-not much in years, but a great deal older 'in the 'ways of the world. It's not that he's lolder, 'but 'lie's stronger, Alffed 'Red- dingford admitted to himself. 'i0h, 'I'd 'forgotten that you've been 'so siek. I suppose 'that makes a difference. I guess it will be all right. But I think I'll 'like you 'better when 'y6i1'i'e idlehr dwell lagaihf' . When I'm clear well again? mused Reddingford, gazing out ithe window, and 'he soon 'closed the sitting for that lday. 'Half fthrough the 'next Aliay's sitting, 'James Letltered 'with 'the in- evitable ' salver: Pardon sir, and he held out a'da'rd. Reddingford took it, read it, flushed, aifd 'then paled.

THE otiva AND GOLD , 41 Alfred Reddingford's thin and rather wnax face took on new lines as he walked down the heavily-carpeted hallt hold-ing Willie's little hand Within hi own. Hubert Cowper, standing, before an open. windgyv, raised his heavy eyebrows and twirled a waxed moustache. I came down today-to see what you Wanted? The tones cut clear. Cowper glanced from the child to Reddingford. A half-cynical smile grew on his thin lips. The fellows have missedf you at the club, Red. Well'l There's going to be something extra to-night. I thought, perhaps, you'd-- his voice trailed off suggestingly. Reddingford had not asked his visitor to be seated. He himself stood near the center of the room, the little boy clinging to his hand. Cowper, I don't care to do-to do what-you suggest, and he looked him squarely in the eye. What is the matter? Cowper spoke in a clear but low, tense voice. Reddingford stepped back, gently pushing the child aside. He squared his thin shoulders. His dark eyes burned steadily upon the puzzled face of his one-time boon companion: A Cowper, I've decided to cut out the 'extras' at the Club- I Pardon, sir- James stood beside his master. Doctor Townsend in the studio, sir. You will excuse me, Cowper. I bid you good-day. Cowper made no attempt to, detain Reddingford. He stood with a strange, puzzled expression on his hard features. Gradually it gave way to a cynical sneer. He passed quickly down the marble steps. He turned and glanced back, but he 10012611 at a closed door. Hazel Bean, '13. MY STAR.

Their radiance fills The lambent air. They quiver there on high Like trembling things alive, hurled by the might Of Titans into space.

THE OLIVE AND GOLD WHEN THE SENIORS STRUCK OUT Ij,ts on the High School Campus, That the Seniors held their game- And it was a triiie dampus, Just after one big rain. 7 The Senior boys were there tho', The first time since last year, Had they not been so slow The score'd been-Oh dear !- 'Tis somewhat hard to say, With Atlas at the bat, Who played the grand-stand game, Instead of standing pat. Yet how can we forget him, When two long rides he caught. Amidst the cry of Seniors, Another out was wrought. And soon our noble Carty, While on his way to first, Took one grand leap, and sliding Upon the base he burst. Then who does come but Tommy,- Our foxy third-base man, Head erect and arms up, For home-plate he ran. But if 'twere not for Scotty, Whose brawny hands do grip The bat, and powerfu1'y swinging Sends, what's called a pip . A scream of Oh! and 'lSee that! Is heard from part the crowd, And arms awaving overhead, We of our boys are proud. The Sophomores, wretched creatures! Think only they are it, And send a hard, swift grounderg But in Lopez's hand it lit! THE ouvs AND GOLD 43 But all this time where 's Harold? No base ball man is heg But when put to it, Is all right there you see. Then Fritz, with his long wind-up Threw a steamy ball. Poor young Sophomore hitter Did topple like a doll. And Dean, who strides the first base, A sent 'nel keeping watch, Does scare the little Soph. so He kind'a slinks a notch. Belford is the quick man, Who pegs 'em out on third, By means of jiu-jitsu The yell, 9th Inning's heard. The time is getting short, boys, It is tall Osborne 's bout, His legs will not go faster, The Seniors have struck out. Now here, my patient children, Is the story short and fair, How Seniors lost the base ball, Simply by playing square. C !!!D Lilias Smith, '13, 1i..-1-1.11-1 A TRANSCRIPT FROM ROMAN HISTORY. CEditor's Note: The following is an exact reproduction of the mss. of one of the brightest pupils in History 9A, published by permission of the teacher, Miss Donoho.D January 10. Augustine Janssens, History 9A. Legendary History of Rome. Rome was ruled by seven successive kings from 715 to 510 B. C. Romulus the founder of Rome was the son of Mars, God of War, and of a princess. When he was but a babe, a mere child, he was left to die a horrible death on Mount Palatine. This babe-in whose head the immense brains that later 44 THE built Rome were entrapped,-was left to perish, unknown, unwept, and unsung. However, the villains were fooled, , for ai wolf nursed him to success-a wolf-a wolf-a mere animal instead of a kind mother to help him in time of dire emergencies. In later years when Romulus achieved victories he had no mother to pat on, the back and, say: Romulus, my boy, you will do great things and make men look up tof you. His only inspiration was a wolf, to whom he had to tell his tale, and from whom he received mute sympathy. Romulus .............,...... etc. ' That Romulus's brains- were superior to those of the shepherds is shown by his wondrous works. He gathered about him outlaws, reprobates, hypo- crites, and social outcasts, and built one of the best cities of the world. It was called Rome after dear little Romulus, its founder,--the little babe, Romulus, now a man of middle age with a mustache and other marks of respect. They fought with the Sabiness and later reconciled each other to their own miseries and faults. The other six kings were as follows: Numa, Tulns Hostilus, Ancus Mar- tius, Tarquin Priscus, Servius Tuluis, Tarquin the Tyrant. This last king oppressed the poor plebs who fought so hard, so gallantly, so bravely, so gentlemanly, to gain a foothold. They were made to bite the dust that they had helped to gain for Rome. Truth crushed to earth will rise again , so was it with the poor plebs, they rose, but only to be crushed again. Finally, they rose again to stay up. fSigned :--J Augustine J anssens.

THE OLIVE AND GOLD MY SENTIMENTS. A teeter-totter to my heart brings back forgotten joy 3- When on that plank I rise in air, I think I am a boy. A boy can have such stacks of fun,--his life is one gay whirl. I wish that I'd been born a boy instead of just a girl! A girl's chief duty on this earth: Look pretty tif you canJ. But when you can 't-my sentiments: I'd rather be a man. A girl must be all modesty.-I can't and I won't try! When boys get mad-why, they can swear, and girls--well-they just cry. I'1l start my life from bottom up, in that there 'll be some joy 5 But l won 't be a girl again--next time I'll be a boy. I 'll join the football squad-perhaps-maybe run like a streak. But doctors then won't say to me, No basket ball-you're weak ! I'll in the ocean try to drown 5 but sink or swim or what, I'll always wish to be a boy--I 'spose because I'm not! I must now powder my pug nose and put my hair in curl, Oh! how I wish I were a boy! It 's hard to be a girl! Ida Thompson, '14 SPRING. There's something in the air that seems to say, I'm Spring! leave all your books-come out and play, For Spring time is the Youth of all the Year.

The Commandante patted the small' iiask, shaking it suggestively. The old Indian with a Muy pronto, seiior ', shambled eagerly away. The beautiful adobe Mission lay quiet in the sunshine, and the little. village of Santa Bar- bara sloped down to the shining sea. With unseeing eyes, the representative of Spain looked out over the peaceful scene. Are the horses ready at the bend beyond the Mission, his fine eyes kindled reminiscently. cash, seionn The bent figure of old Pepe shuffled on towards the Mission plaza. Here all was gay with the glint of color and ring of laughter of a Spanish Fiesta. In and out among the dancers and merrymakers, flitted in butterfly fashion the village beauty, Inez, Father Xavier's ward. Her great eyes glowed, her lithe, graceful bodsy swayed to the music of the softly thrumming guitars. The Commandante, now leaning behind the farthest pillar of the arched cloister, followed every move with his half-veiled eyes, but his body never lost a line of its lazy grace. The shadows grew long, and the sunlight more golden. The sweet-toned Mission bells chimed thrice. Quickly the music ceased, the laughter quieted down, and' the whirling, dancing throng sank to its knees, reciting in soft cadence, the Angelus. The old padre, standing on the worn steps of the Mis- sion church, extended his hands in benediction. His voice, still clear and powerful, rang out breaking the stillness, it carried faintly to the watcher at the farthest end of the cloister. And, now, go thy ways, 0 my children, thrice blessed in our Father's name, whose all-seeing power doth guide thy feet from pitfalls and thy paths from evil, for nothing can harm the pure of heart. 'I was once young and now am old, but never have I seen the righteous man forsaken, nor his seed begging bread! Thrice blessed be thy coming and thy going, and may the safety of God attend thee as thy shadow. After the simple-hearted throng had departed, the old, wrinkled hand of the padre rested lightly on the still bowed head of his ward. Those deep-set, kindly, grey eyes, which had seen the little mission of Santa Barbara grow and develop at his feet, now wandered over the valley, the channel that he loved- the shining bay, whose blue waters with its bands of golden kelp and its shad- owy island, lay in the distance, misty, illusive. Inez arose slowly and took in with one loving glance the golden sea, the sweeping plain, the towering mountain ridge, and the little village cradled within its arm. Will the mountains shut out worry, Father? she asked naively, breath- ing in the peaceful sweetness of the scene. A shambling old Indian shutlied across the plaza. Reverend Father, he crossed himself and stood, hat in hand. Yes, Pepe, .the padre's eyes saddened. Before him stood a one-time THE 'OLIVE AND GOLD 49 chieftain. Then came the Spanish,--lthen the-iirewa'ter,-1andi11hen- Pepe was rambling 'dn: ' Old Machella lies 'sick and calls for the Wild Flower. She sent me hither. The old man 's words stumbled as he eyed the padre, a look half of fdread, half of cunning on his old, wrinkled face. The girl withdrew her -eyes quickly from the mountains, and searched the padre 's face. Yea, daughter, 'go thou. Take unto thy good nursemy blessing. But be ye within these walls before the vesper bell doth sound. May fthy Guardian Angel keep thee from all harm! His careful eyes sought the distant hills, endeavoring to scan their mys- teries, but then resting longest on the grim -presidio that topped the Mesa hill. He sighed as Inez crossed the plaza, then turned and went into the church. - Pepe hath won his reward! The graceful lounger behind the farthest pillar of the arched cloister sprang into sudden activity. The adobe lay in a tangled undergrowth of vines. Tall trees sheltered it from the too curious sunbeams. Within, at a shrine of the Madonna, knelt an old Indian woman-feeble, childish, mumbling in a monotonous undertone, as the rosary slipped 'through her fingers, 'brown and wrinkled. She swayed gently, rapt in her devotions. A'dark face ,peered in. at the window and turned away, satisfied. A whisper came 'through -the-evening air: Have ready the horses. Tonight, I shall -not 'fail! Ah, well 'was f he called, the 'village Wild Flower--Inez-- The old brown fingers stayed, paralyzed in -their telling of 'the beads-iwho could be talking of her darling Inez whose first steps she had guided here in this very house? Today-the Fiesta at the Mission-surely- She crept to the window- The Commandante! Curse of God! Could he-could Inez-H She strained her ears to listen- She will be here directly. Let there be no halt. Do not let her cry out. Remember! The old face pressed close to the window was drawn. Oh, that she once more might be Machella, the swift of foot. The rosary slipped through her nerveless fingers to the iioor. Stealthily creeping across the floor, she stepped out through a narrow opening into the tangled growth of vines. The voices still sounded from the other side of the cottage. Dusk was falling, but she tottered weakly on. Oh, my Lady Mary--my Lady- she prayed unceasingly, as she stumbled on over roots and vines. A fresh young voice sounded clearly through the cafion, singing an Indian song she had taught her herself- Oh, but lend me the feet of a deer- Fear and love gave speed to her tottering feet. The song died on the girl 's lips at the sight before her, as she rounded the bend. ' ' Machella !- i ' Oh, Babita!-Back to the Father-The soldiers- A swift look of terror crossed the girl's face, as she remembered- 50 THE OLIVE AND GOLD 'fHasten! Hark! Someone crashed through the underbrush. The strong young arms lifted the little, old Hgure on to a bed of hidden leaves. Fleet as a deer, she sought the open road. Heavy boots crashed through the bushes. Voices called. Horses pawed the ground, eager to be off. Mother! Mother! the blanched lips murmured the name again and again- A call in the distance !-In sight loomed the friendly adobe Mission walls. The Vesper bell sounded, but behind her still came the sound of clattering hoofs. Father Xavier knelt by the Mission door as a young priest intoned the opening canticle of the Vesper service. The sound of the hoof-beats broke in upon the music of the song. The Soldiers-Inez- Fear gripped at the good Father's heart. Trembling he grasped the golden crucifix from its receptacle by the Mission door. V Out of the darkness sped a slight figure. Inez fell, exhausted, on the Mission steps. A man swung down from his horse, hands outstretched. In the dusk above the girl, the golden crucifix gleamed, blazoned in fire. Out of the darkness came a voice: ' Peace, my child, the sanctuary guards thee! The old voice broke in sudden passion. Ye men of Spain! Murder of such as ye would be praised of the righteous God! Begone! Begone! Ye shades of imperial darkness !-- My God! Mly God! When will ye see the light! The old voice trailed off in heart-broken sobsg the old head fell on the sunken breast. When he looked again, the soldiers knelt on the lowest step of the Mission, and he raised the blessed emblem aloft in the night. Martha Graham, '13. Q THE PLAINT OF SAINT SIMEON. Ah, ye , the maiden knight, Sir Galahad, Is young, and seeks with earnest zeal the Grail. The Holy Grail! Most wondrous, magic sight, Which makes a man forget that he might fail To reach the goal-be worsted in the fight. For years I longed to search both far and wide, And thought to leave these walls, to steal away, But always, waiting, stands the crowd outside, All begging my poor blessing for each day. Although they know not what repentance is, They turn to holy things, in serious plight. Thus, am I doom 'd to go through penances, And make my pray'rs to God both day and night. Sir Galahad rejoices in his day, Rejoices in his youth, and power, and life. He sees not brother fallen by the way, He strives to see the Grail, and wins through strife, Through strife with all he meets, with all mankind. He holds him pure, as worthy the Great King. His main ambition is to seek and find , The Holy Grail! Most wondrous, magic sight, The countless pains which I have undergone Return to mock me when I pray to God. Yet nothing can I do, but wait--wait on Until I leave this world in sorrow trod, And eek my Lord who dwells among the saints. -Zelma Westcott, '14 52 THE OLIVE AND GOLD . A K3 f. - if e Us Q s, 3 ...

Although Santa Barbara now stands ninth in the League, this does not indicate that debating has not progressed this year. It has been carried on by practically new material in a most masterful way, and the fact that our debaters have done good, comprehensive work, is of more value than high ratings. Our splendid coaches-Mr. Robertson, the first semester. and Bliss South- wick and Mr. Olney the second-sent forth teams who presented solid ar- guments in a clear, direct manner. The interest and enthusiasm manifested by the students and the help- ful encouragement of the faculty-'especially Mrs. Byrd, Miss Kent and Mr. Vlfhitaker-played a big part in debating this year, and made it a live school activity. LLOYD CUP DEBATE. The second and last Lloyd Cup Debate of the year was held Jan. 31. Four of the eontestants were to be selected for the interscholastic de- bate with Pomona. The one scoring the highest number of points was to be declared winner of the Lloyd Cup. Friday evening, Jan. 31, eight enthusiastic rivals met to discuss a deeply interesting and serious subject: Resolved, that the state constitution should be amended so as to permit. the recall of judicial decisions. The order of the debate was determined by lot: Henry Carty vs. Hazel Bean, John Newton vs. Elmer Sample, Evelyn Creasy vs. Bertha Robertsg Hazel Smith vs. Frank Heimlieh. THE OLIVE AND GOLD 57 As the first two speakers had, in previous debates, won the Lloyd Cup, they were debating only for a place on the team. The judges-Mrs. Lynn, Mr. Wilkinson, and Miss Donoho-kept a large and interested audience in suspense for some time. Their difficulty was in deciding whether Hazel Smith, Elmer Sample or Frank Heimlich should be given fourth place. One judge held that Hazel Smith should be given first place. The decision finally rendered, made Bertha Roberts, of' the Senate, winner of the Cup, with' John Newton, Hazel Bean, and Frank Heimlich, making the Interscholastic. The excellent work done in this debate prepared the way for the hard fight with Pomona. THE QUORUM. The Quorum still holds its position as one of the best factors in the High School for training students in public speaking and debating. The Quorum, not satisfied with its already varied field, has taken up a new activity. A boys' Glee Club has been organized, and at present num- bers some fifteen members. They hold practices regularly on every Wednes- day evening under the direction of Miss Keech, to whom the club is deeply indebted for her services. The club has been 'heard on several occasions and has proven an entire success. Since the Christmas issue of this magazine, the Quorum has increased its membership from sixty to over one hundred members. As most of these new members are from the lower classes, the out-look for the coming year is all that its loyal members could wish. Again, in what measure that we can, we express our appreciation of the work done by our ever kind, and faithful Mr. Robertson, and Miss Over- man, Miss Keech, Miss Dimmick, and Mr. Kerr.

The question, submitted by Santa Barbara, Was: Resolved, that American municipalities should own their light, water, and transportation systems . In Santa Barbara, we were represented by Bertha Roberts and Robin Osborne. Their opponents were Vivian Kraus and Hugh Shippey. The score was as follows: Bertha Roberts, 299. Robin Osborne, 275. Vivian Kraus, 267. Hugh Shippey, 225. In Long Beach, John Newton and Hazel Bean represented Santa Bar- bara against Mr. McClintock and Mr. Carroll. The score ran: Mr. McClintock, 298. Mr. Carroll, 287. .John Newton, 275. Hazel Bean, 270. THE OLIVE AND GOLD 61 Although Santa Barbara lost in Long Beach, our Santa Barbara team 's glorious victory won the entire debate. Miss Roberts's work was remarkable, both in argument and manner of presentation. Her convincing manner won both audience and judges. She comes off with the highest score of any of the contesting schools. March 4-Pomona vs. Santa Barbara: The debate with Pomona closed the season. The question, submitted by Santa Barbara, was: Resolved, that the state constitutions should be so amended as to permit of the recall of judicial decisions. In Santa Barbara, Bertha Roberts and John Newton debated against Henry Barcus and Fred Gammel. The score was as follows: Henry Barcus, 298. Fred Gammel, 291. John Newton, 273. Bertha Roberts, 273. In Pomona, Hazel Bean and Frank Heimlich debated against Dorothy Neely and Laurence Gantz. The score was: Hazel Bean, 297. Dorothy Neely, 295. Laurence Gantz, 283. Frank Heimlich, 282. After adding in the points given for team Work, Santa Barbara had two-thirds of a point more than Pomona, but two judges rated the latter higher. According to the rules of the League, this gave Pomona ten extra points. Thus, in both events the victory went to Pomona. The Santa Barbara team that went to Pomona will long remember the genial reception and thoughtful consideration that they received while there. - .L. THE FINAL WORD. The debaters have been doing a little precedent smashing this year, in that they have succeeded in making the whole school wake up and take notice when there was a debate on. All debaters declare that they have felt the support of the entire school throughout the year. This is a decided improvement over the old order of affairs. As an evidence that this new interest in debate is not temporary, sev- eral have made known their intention of going in for debate next year. The Juniors, especially, seem much interested. This is a good sign. They 62 THE OLIVE AND GOLD already have, for a representative, Frank Heimlieh, who has done remark- able work this year, and who affirms that debating is surely worth While. ' ' d work It remains for the Senate and Quorum to continue their goo of producing talent capable of representing their school 1n such an 1n- tellectual Held. It is significant a longed either to the Quorum or the Senate. Candidates for debate had th t all the members of Interscholastic teams have be- better take notice. Hazel G.

The year of 1912-1913 has been a year of signal success in all lines of athletics for the Olive and Gold. In football and baseball we came through the year without a single defeat, in track we were forced to take second place in the Tri-County Meet, but we made up for this by winning the handsome Relay Cup. A The outlook is cheerful. The various teams were made up principally of first and second year men. Next year we will lose Scott, Janney, Belford, Wall, and Lopez, but there is good timber left. Our speedy sprinters, Clark and Smith, will still uphold the colors of the school. Clean minds, clean bodies, clean sport has been the slogan of our coach, Mr. Brown. Time and again he has sacrificed point-making to char- acter-making. A favorite saying of his is: We'll take the best team., if not the strongest and the results have justified the method. The day has passed in Santa Barbara High when a man can loaf on the job and turn up at the last practice expecting to be chosen, or can fail to obey training-rules and hope to make the team. And this condition has been brought about through the efforts of the boys themselves, through the faculty, but most of all through the persistent policy of Mr. Brown. We take this opportunity of publicly thanking him for his untiring labor in our behalf, his fine counsel, and his excellent good-fellowship. Three cheers for Mr. Brown, fellows: Rah! Rah! Rah! Brown! BASEBALL. With the memories of a grand victorious football season still with us, our baseball boys were determined at once to accomplish as great success. With this purpose in view, practice was started soon after the Christmas holidays. Under the coaching of Mr. Brown and the captaincy of Ben Lopez, forty- iive candidates reported for practice, among these, as usual, the handful of green material ready to learn our great national game. - Never before in the history of the Olive and Gold has there been such competition for positions as during this season. Of last year's veterans only four remained to contest with the new material-our old standbys: Catcher, B. Lopez, Iniielders, Clyde Scott and Fred McCloskey, and Outfielder, W. Lopez. These had to display the best of their baseball, for the new material improved rapidly and the veterans were at all times in danger of losing their respective positions. After a few weeks' practice Coach Brown was able to line up his new material for the coming season. Among the candidates we found men of baseball ability, such as, Johnny Westwick, George Sapp, Barney Cota, Earl Conrad, James Thomas, Harold Clark, Harold Allen, Russell Hicks, and Ernest 9 93109 'zadoj ugmuefuagyeaog oueqlv 'Aaxisolgoyq paxd 'ddzg IIEAA 0'I sanuef 'uoog aplqg 'peluog peg 'zad OLLL qoeog 511213 p1omH 'sew 'EI 'UMOJ WVELL l'IVSI EISVH 1: J '10 -f, .2 1, 1 4 3- :- 3- 5- : -2 x ..f:- V 4, mf . g Mr. ff'?Z,..

These, together with the old veterans, Ben Lopez, Clyde Scott, Fred McCloskey and William Lopez, formed a combination of ball players hard to beat. The spirit and enthusiasm With which the boys started to practice is chiefiy due to the persistent boosting of Daddy Robertson. For three full years he tried to arouse the baseball spirit among the boys of this school, but without any marked result. Yet he continued to work year after year with a small group of enthusiasts. It was Mr. Robertson who turned out the famous Olive and Gold battery of Hicks and Marincovich. Finally, when the season of 1913 opened, he was the first to offer his services in promoting the game, and helping the boys. Mr. Robertson assisted nightly in helping Coach Brown to develop the new team, and under the supervision of these two good baseball men, our boys were taught the mysteries of the baseball world. During the training season, our school was fortunate in having two full teams represented nightly on the diamond. The second team did all in its power andiability to help the Olive and Gold develop a speedy bunch of ball tossers. There are, among the second squad of diamond dusters, boys who are worthy of special mention in having helped Mr. Brown and the first team. These are Karl Day, Coleman Stuart, Willie Hoefling, James McCloskey, Baldwin Quintero, Harold Weidman, John Holt, Harold Smith, Homer Sherrill, and Frederick Janney. From these names, we can see that there is some very promising baseball material, and with the coaching which they have received from Coach Brown, Santa Barbara promises, in the next few years, to produce one of the speediest ball teams on the High School diamonds. One of our main purposes in keeping the ball flying across the diamond was to try to bring back tothe Olive and Gold the magnificent Independent Baseball Cup, which was won from Santa Barbara four years ago by our old rival, Ventura High. During our football season, four years ago, we were challenged by Ventura to play for the famous cup, then held bythe Olive and Gold. Many of our stars were on the football field and their places had to be filled by second-rate players. In spite of this fact, we were represented by a very well-balanced team, but were defeated by a small margin of 2 to 1. The batteries in this game were Hicks and Marincovich, the only two regulars who were not on the football turf. The 'whole Student-Body felt keenly the loss of the cup, but this could not be helped. Ventura was immediately chal- lenged by Santa Paula, who, in a closely contested game, won the cup by a score of 1 to 0. Santa Paula held the cup and in the following year the Olive and Gold tried again to bring it back, and again faced defeat by the small scores of 3 to 2, and 2 to 1. The batteries of these games were Hicks and Marincovich. Immediately after this game the baseball spirit began to decline and Santa Barbara soon lost track of its old pet, the Independent Cup. Santa Paula held it for three years, defeating all rivals, but our old friend, Oxnard, came back strong this year and in two fast games captured Santa Barbara's lost treasure. These victories of Oxnard over Santa Paula caused great excite- ment among our Student-Body, and 'we at once issued a challenge to Oxnard 66 THE OLIVE AND GOLD for Feb. 1, to regain thc cup. Coach Brown selected the following line-up to represent Santa Barbara against Oxnard: Catcher, Captain B. Lopez, Pitchers, R-. Hicks, H. Clarke and J. Thomas, First Base, C. Scott, Second Base, J. Westwick, Third Base, H. Allen, Short-Stop, G. Sapp, and Fred MGcCloskey, Left Field, A. Cotag Center Field, W. Lopez, Right Field, E. Bush, Sub- stitute, E. Conrad. Santa Barbara 13, Oxnard 5. Two weeks after we had won the Independent cup from our old friend Oxnard, we were challenged again to play for it. This time the game was to be played on our home grounds at the Athletic Park. This was an advan- tage to us as anybody knows that playing on one 's own field might easily mean victory at almost any time. On February 15, we met Oxnard at the Athletic Park for the second time in defence of the handsome Baseball Cup, and we proved to them that we were the real holders of the cup, slaughtering them. by a score of 13-5. The game was full of hard hitting and grandstand play, on the part of the Olive and Gold. The team showed the school how to play real baseball and the way they did it soon brought the grandstand to their feet with cheers. Hicks was again on the firing line with Captain B. Lopez diggin' 'em out from behind the rubber. Hicks twirled a grand game, letting his opponents down with seven scattered hits, however, he was not in his best shape, as all could see. Captain Lopez as usual caught a ready game and had Oxnard at his mercy when it came to base-running. Crinklaw and Wheldon again formed the battery for the Oxnard combina- tion. Crinklaw could not stand the hitting pace of the Olive and Gold, and in the seventh gave way to Sailer who twirled good ball the rest Of the 25111110- Crinklaw was touched up for eighteen, while Hicks allowed seven, among them being a home run by Clyde Scott, and three sackers by Westwick and Allen. The game proved that the team was willing to play all the baseball that was in them when it came to defending the cup. The team as a Whole wishes to thank the whole Student-Body for the kind support which they rendered in the game and we hope that another winning team may be developed to keep the cup here next year, and in years to come. The results of the game were: - RHIIS : Hits : El'I'0I'S : Santa Barbara ...............................................,.. 13 18 3 Oxnard ..........................................

Santa Barbara 8, Oxnard 6. Coach Brown and his speedy bunch of diamond artists journeyed to Oxnard, Saturday, February 1, administering a defeat to the team repre- senting Oxnard High, in a hard fought, ten-inning game, by a score of 8 to 6, thereby winning the Independent Cup. The game was called at 2:30, and was fast and snappy throughout, being undecided until the last man had been retired in the tenth inning, by center- fielder W. Lopez. Hicks and Captain B. Lopez formed the winning battery, while Crinklaw and Weldon were Oxnard 's mainstays. Up to the third inning it was anybody's game. At this stage, however, Oxnard scored three runs off of Hicks' delivery. In the second half of the same canto, Hicks led off for the Olive and Gold, but failed to reach first in safety, Cota, the next man to oppose Crinklaw, favored his outcurves and connected with the ball for a safe hit over the second baseman's head. Cots stole second and scored in W. Lopez's hit to center. The next two men failed to connect with Crinklaw's choice ones and Lopez died at third. In the fourth inning the Oxnard batters evened up matters, when Diedrick was hit and scored on Lillie's hit to center. In the first half of this frame Santa Barbara certainly made things boom for the Olive and Gold, and took to Crinklaw 's twirling and touched him up for three hits and three runs. This made the game look rather gloomy for the Red and Gold, but they came back strong in the next and annexed another run, taking the lead by one run, the score reading 5-4. Neither team scored again until the seventh, when Captain B. Lopez leaned on one of Crinklaw's choice ones for a home run. tying the score the second time. The Olive and Gold scored again in the beginning of the eighth, when, with two men down, Westwick stole home, the score now reading 6--5. Oxnard failed to score in their half, and ,victory looked as if it was Santa Barbara's, but at the end of the first half of the ninth the Olive and Gold was given a goose egg. It was in this inning that the victors and holders of the cup were to be settled, and it looked as if Hicks was going to win his old ballgamef' It was here that our old friend Cinnamon Head C Earnest Bushl saved the game, when with second and third bases occupied, Diedrick hit to right, scoring Weldon, Bu h here used his head and running in picked the ball out of the dust and shot it at Scotty who retired Diedrick before Gage had a chance to hit the Rubber . This gave Oxnard the tying run and the game was forced to go farther. In Santa Barbara 's half of the tenth two runs were forced across the plate by hard hitting on the part of Allen and McCloskey. This lead of two runs was sufficient, for Hicks held the opposing batters at his mercy and when the last man flew out to center, the Cup was ours. ' The main feature of the game was the pitching of Hicks for the Olive and Gold. He twirled a wonderful game, letting his opponents down with eight scattered hits, while twelve were registered off of Crinklaw. B. Lopez, 68 THE OLIVE AND GOLD besides catching a heady game, had all the Oxnard Baserunners on his iron arm, only two being recorded against him, while ten were stolen off of Crinklaw, Cota, Scott and Allen being the chief offenders. The playing of the Olive and Gold as a whole was a credit to the school and much praise is due to our able-bodied coach for the way in which he directed the team through- out the game. The new material showed that they could handle a baseball and if a big league magnate had witnessed the game, he would have surely felt that there were among the bushers some fellows worthy of big league calibre. The result was as follows: , Box Score. Santa Barbara High Schoool. A.B. R. 1 B. S.B. S.H. P.O. A. E. Cota, lf .,............ ............ 5 1 2 3 0 2 0 1 W.

An hilarious costume baseball game was played on May 2, 1913, between the Quorum and Senate literary societies of the High School, but, try as hard as they could, supremacy remained undecided. Seven innings were played and neither side scored. Then they attempted to settle athletic prowess by a relay race, and the judges of the contest report that the finish was of such a character that it left everything in doubt. It proved one of the most unusual campus affairs of the year. Prior to the game there was a parade, led by Elmer Boeseke, in sanctimonious attire. But what followed was quite otherwise, some of the boys appearing as ballet girls, etc. Much originality was displayed, which has no reference whatever to the brevity of attire. Strange rules obtained during the game: right-handed batters were com- pelled to bat left-handed, and left-handed batted right-handed. The running of bases was in the opposite direction and backwards. S. W. Robertson, who is a first class right-handed umpire, umpired left- handed, and did good work. No one was able to back around to first place. Under the conditions the fielding was superb. Seven innings were played when the game was called. . By far the most original character of the day was Harold Clark, the cook, who held down all the positions on the field for the Quorum except umpire, and we feel safe in saying that he had some influence with that distinguished personage disguised as Mr.- Robertson. Another character of the day worthy of mention was Everett S. Brown, 'the Scotch high-binder, who by his timely advice to the invincible pitcher, A. Westwick, saved the day for the Senators. W. Lopez was also there with the goods. Together with his brother Asiatic Ben, he made more noise than the whole combination of rooters. The lineup for the Game was as follows: Quorum 5 Senate 5 W- LOPCZ, Catcher, H. Shirrell. J. Westwick, Pitcher, A. Westwick. G- Sapp, First Base, N. Bailard. B.

THE RELAY CUP X .ar lx ti. s 2:35 L mga, Frederic Janney Harold Smith Wilber Sawyers Harold Clark TRACK. Immediately after the last baseball game with Oxnard, the cinder-burners of the Olive and Gold turned out in full force. In answer to the call for the first tryout of the year, held in the shape of an Inter-class Meet on April 7, but five 'Lvets reportedg namely. Clarke, Farquhar, Janney, Scott, and Shirrell, while a new squad of twenty-five answered the summons. With the able instruction of our Coach Brown, and the assistance of Peter Poole, and the leadership of Captain Clarke, our sturdy athletes were rounded into excellent form. Much credit is due to Coach Brown for the work he did in developing a. THE OLIVE AND GOLD speedy crowd of track artists. Our old friend Peter Poole was always on hand with his canny word. Without men such as these, the Olive and Gold would be in danger of losing her place as a winner of track meets. Inter-Class Meet. On April 7, the Sophomores again showed their ability as champions of the school, by gathering up the long end of the points in the Inter-class Track and Field Meet, by the score of 47. The Seniors were their nearest competitors, with a score of 35, next came the Juniors with 15, and lastly the Freshmen with 7. From, the results of the class meet we found that there 'is some very promising material among the two lower classes, this was shown by the enor- mous score of the second year men. Clarke was the star for the Sophomores, besides being the highest point winner of the day. He had improved greatly in his track work, and was promising for points in the Tri-County Meet. Clarke displayed great ability by annexing three first places in the 50, 100, and 220 yd. dashes and by winning the relay when it looked like a victory for the speedy Seniors. The main attraction of the meet was the battle between Clarke and Belford for the Ewing Individual Cup. Before the meet it had been conceded that Belford would carry off the honors by winning the high jump, 220 hurdles, and pole vault, while Clarke was doped only for two flrsts in the 100 and 200 yd. dashes, and a second in the 50. At the call for men to take their marks for the 50 yd. dash, four husky athletes responded, namely, Clarke, Smith, Janney, and Sawyers. When the gun sounded for the race, the school knew that if Janney or Smith could repeat their former victories, in winning the 50 from Clarke, the cup would at once go to the Senior athlete, Belford. The final outcome of the race was just the opposite from the victories of the past, for Clarke, with the speed of a horse, broke the tape ahead of Smith, thereby scoring his first five points. This race decided the holder of the cup, for Clarke was easily the superior in the 100 and the 200, while Belford fell from first, in the pole vault, to second place. Clarke will hold the cup for the year 1913-1914. And we may be sure that he will win it next year, for he is rapidly improving in the sprints. It will not be long before Santa Barbara will have a 10 flat manin him. The results of the meet were as follows: 50 yd. Dash: Won by Clarke, Soph., Smith, F., second, Janney, S., third. Time 5:4. Mile Run: Won by Shirrell, J., Weidman, Soph., second, Wall, S., third. Time 5:13. Shot Put: Won by Farquhar, J., Thompson, S., second, Sawyers, J., third. Distance 39 ft. 1 in. 220 yd.

In the sixth annual Tri-County Track and Field Mleet, held at Athletic Park on April 19, the Olive and Gold was defeated by the speedy cinder- burners of Santa Paula. Oxnard came third, with Nordhoif as a close fourth. By the time the meet was half over it was recognized that our rivals would carry off the laurels. When Oxnard took the 50 yard dash, the first event, the Olive and Gold's hopes began to fade, but when M. Webster, of Santa Paula, took the mile run, it was known that our team would have to brace up to even up things. This is the third time in six years that we had to part with the magnificent field-day cup. B. Munger proved to be the star of the meet, piling up eighteen points for Santa Paula. M. Hall, his team-mate, came second, scoring 13 points. Captain Clarke proved the star of the Santa Barbara team, taking third in the 50 yard dash, and two Hrst places in the 100 and 220 yard dashes. He also ran a fast lap in the relay team, making the total number of points, scored by him, 12111. The 50 yard dash was the first event of the afternoon. This was won by Joehnck of Oxnard in the fast time of 5:35 seconds. M. Webster of Santa Paula was second, with Clarke of Santa Barbara a close third. H. Shirrell was looked upon as a sure winner in the mile run. He led at the start, but was later overtaken by Howard Bald, of Nordhoff, who set a hot pace, and then dropped out on the last lap. The proceedings were evidently intended to benefit his team-mate Freeman, who, however, was hardly in the running. On the last lap, Shirrell started to sprint, but was overtaken by M. Webster of Santa Paula. The race had looked like a dead heat to the finish, but within five yards of the tape M. Webster broke ahead of Shirrell and won by two yards. We also took another place in this, Weidman placing third.

Joehnck of Oxnard was second, with Munger third. In this event, Hall broke the record of 46 feet, 2 inches, set by Parker of Ventura in 1911, by heaving the lead ball a distance of 46 feet, 4521 inches. The 220 yard dash was the most exciting race of the day. Clarke, of Santa Barbara, had it out with L. Webster, of Santa Paula, finally winning from him on the straightaway. Janney of Santa Barbara was barely nosed out of second and forced to third place by Webster. Munger won the high jump easily from all of his competitors. He has done better than he did in the meet, but did not have to extend himself. He cleared the bar at 5 feet 6 inches. His team-mate, M. Webster, was second. Belford of Santa Barbara secured third. Clyde Scott, of Santa Barbara, who does not know just how fast he can run, had a walk away in the 440 yard dash, in the fast time of 55 seconds. He showed a reserve power that left him the freshest of the entire crowd at the Hnish. Dickenson of Santa Paula secured second, while Pierce of Santa Barbara finished third. The 220 yard hurdles was a pretty race' with Munger of Santa Paula at one point being pressed by Sailer, of Oxnard. Munger broke the tape with a three yard lead. Belford of Santa Barbara was forced to accept third place. M. Hall again distinguished himself by winning the broad jump with a leap of 20 feet 6 inches. His poorest jump was better than the best of the others. Munger placed second, with Sailer of Oxnard third. Scott again brought the grandstand to its feet, by running away from his rivals in the half mile. Burnell, of Nordholf, fought it out with Wall, of Santa Barbara, for second honors, Burnell finally winning out. The 100 yard dash, as usual, was very exciting, for Clarke beat out L. Webster, of Santa Paula, in a very close finish. Smith of Santa Barbara had it out with Joehnck of Oxnard for third place, finally stretching across the tape a few inches ahead of his rival. Munger and Hall both cleared the bar at 10 feet 6 inches, in the pole vault. On account of the severe wind both athletes tied at this point and withdrew. Munger tried, in exhibition, to clear 11 feet, but failed, he did 11 feet 11 inches in the Stanford Interscholastic Track Meet, and might have repeated his former performance had not the weather been bad. Lockard of Santa Barbara captured third place. The last and most exciting event of the day was the half-mile relay. Only Santa Paula and Santa Barbara entered teams in this event, but as Santa Paula had won the field day cup, it was assumed by the Santa Paula people that they would also capture the relay honors. The start was directly in front of the grandstand and the whole crowd watched it with eager eyes. Janney of Santa Barbara drew the pole and when the gun sounded, he was off, running a dead heat with L. Webster. Both men came around close together, sending off Smith and Dickenson. Smith of Santa Barbara ran away from 74 THE OLIVE AND GOLD Dickenson, giving Sawyers of Santa Barbara, a lead of several yards. On the stretch, Hall of Santa Paula overtook Sawyers, evening the chances. Both men touched their last men at the same time, sending off Captain Clarke of Santa Barbara against the speedy Munger of Santa Paula. The relay here looked as if it would be a tie, but things brightened when Clarke started to run away from his rival on turning the curve. He kept on increasing his lead and won the relay by several feet. Although defeated, the meet as a whole proved a great success for Santa Barbara. Real sportsmanship prevailed throughout, and there was never a bit of wrangling or questionable tactics indulged in. The defeat was accepted gracefully by our trackmen and the whole school. The visitors had nothing but Words of praise for the manner in which the meet was conducted, also for the courtesy extended them by our Student-Body in their applause and hos- pitality.

Girls' Athletics have fulfilled the prospects of the beginning of the year. This is greatly due to hearty co-operation and aid which the school has given us, and to the work of Miss Donoho, and Miss Southwick. BASKET BALL. The Basket Ball season was a complete success, in spite of the fact that no interscholastic games were scheduled. This success was capped by the donation of letters to the team--a revival of an old S. B. custom. The games were heartily supported, and ran as follows: Freshmen: Forwards-Ella Westbury, Margaret Bussey, G'uards-Flor- ence Wright, Dorothy Morton, Centers-Helen Richter, Margaret Osborne, Alma Eisenburgg Subs-Lorena Burke, Dorothy Osborne. Juniors: Forwards-May Kellogg, Pansy Martin, Guards-Edith Hoel, Ida Thompson, Centers-Irma Kellogg, Georgianna Carmany, Frances Baker. Score-11 to 10 for Freshmen. This game promises well for next year. The playing was very even on both teams, but at the very last moment the Freshmen turned the score in their favor, by a clever play. The Senior-Sophomore Game was an excellent one, but the teams proved not so evenly matched as in the preceding game. Owing to lack of Sophomore players, Juniors and Freshmen had to substitute. The line-up was as follows: Seniors: Forwards-Lilias Smith, Rosamond Bradbury, Guards--Pauline Finley, Mary Chauvelg Centers-Hilda Weston, Josephine Morgan. Sophomores: Forwards--Gertrude Hardcastle, Margaret Bussey, Guards -Ruth Culver, Lenora Morgan, Centers-Frances Baker, Leona Weseott. The Senior team's strength lay in its guards, and the score turned in their favor, 20 to 11. TENNIS. Tennis has also proved a marked success this year. Especial credit is due the under-class girls, especially the Freshman class, which seems on the whole a wonderful class. Those girls who won in the try-outs were as follows: Margaret Putnam, Lois Mitchell, Edessa Arne, Catherine Bailard, Vida Hill, Georgianna Carmany, Helen Bailard, Anna Cardoza, Lilias Smith, Lois Hard- castle, Carmelita Freeman, Gertrude Hardeastle, Ruth Weatherbee, Jessie Bailard, Rosamond Bradbury, Florence Pierce. In the finals, Helen Bailard, a young Sophomore, who plays morning, noon and night, won from Florence Pierce by a score of Q6-35 C6-OJ. 76 THE OLIVE AND GOLD The class tennis captains, who were elected immediately after the tourna- ment, are as follows: Freshmen-Mary Schauer: Sophomore-Helen Bailard: Junior-Pansy Martin: Senior-F-Jessie Bailard. The results of the class games were as follows: Singles: Helen Bailard, Sophomore, defeated Lilias Smith, Senior. Score, C6-35 C9-75 C6-lj. Singles: Ellen Bailard, Freshman, defeated Madeline Reily, Junior. Score, Q6--45 C6-35. Doubles: Helen Bailard and Gertrude Hardcastle, Sophomores, defeated Lilias Smith and Rosamond Bradbury, Seniors. Score C6-OJ C6-45. Doubles: Ellen Bailard and Catherine Bailard, Freshmen, defeated Made- line Reily and Ruth Weatherbee, Juniors. Score, C6-OJ C6-43. COMMENT. Again we wish to thank Miss Donoho and Miss Southwick for their aid towards our success, and the school for standing behind us so strongly. We certainly ,have felt your support, your presence at the games, and your Coun- cil's aid and kindness in awarding us our deserved letters. And we, the Senior girls, Hilda Weston, Rosamond Bradbury, Pauline Finley and Mabel Nelson, hope that the fine material brought out this year will be developed, that the same conscientious spirit and feeling of good friend- ship may prevail in Girls' Athletics in future years as it has done in the past, making athletics a feature to be remembered with pride by every high school girl. Lilias Smith, '13. Manager. A WORD OF APPRECIATION. We, the athletic girls of Santa Barbara High School, do wish to express our gratitude towards our Manager, Lilias Smith, whose untiring work has helped to bring our branch of work to a success.

Early in the term, after all the work and worry of editing the last output of the Olive and Gold, the Senior Class divided itself into two sections with Earle Wall as the captain of one side and Fritz Janney captain of the other. The object of the division was to see which side could sell the most magazines, the winning side to be treated to a feed. It was hard to decide which was the winner, as the supply of magazines was very soon exhausted. Earle 's side had sold the most magazines, but Fritz's side had the most magazines promised. The feed, however, was given by Fritz's side and consisted of hot tamales, and they certainly were hot! So is everything connected with the Olive and Gold. HERBERT WHEELER ENTERTAINS THE SENIORS. The Senior Class is indebted to Herbert Wheeler for one of the most delightful social aifairs of the Whole year, when he entertained his class- mates at Unity Hall, on January 10, 1913. The Hello Seniors, which headed the unique little dance programs, seemed to strike the keynote for an evening of good fellowship. One feature of the entertainment was especially novel, a Telephone Game, in which various numbers of the class were called to the 'phone, one by one. For the beneit of those present, they carried on a conversation with someone at the other end of the line. From the conversation with its all-too-present hits, the listeners were to guess the imaginary person. Other pleasant features were the impromptu musical numbers which were rendered by various members of the faculty and Senior Class. Mr. Everett Brown sang that old Scotch favorite, Loch Lomond. Frances Stoekird sang Sing me to Sleep 5 Mr. Henry Kerr sang a comic song Where did you get that hat? g Hazel Smith rendered a whistling solog and Mrs. Byrd sang the famous Robber Kitten, in a manner which elicited great applause. Here 's to you Herbert Wheeler! THE JUNIOR DANCE. The Junior Dance took place on the evening of Jan. 17. It was a great success. The class colors were carried out with brilliant poinsettias and soft- toned grey moss. THE OLIVE AND GOLD 79 Gale Farquhar was the manager, and the chairmen of the various commit- tees were: Elsa Wilson, decorations, Ruth Wilson, reception, Carol Dunshee, games, Ida Thompson, refreshments, John Holt, program. The patronesses were: Mlrs. Dunshee, Mrs. J. C. Wilson, Mrs. J. W. Wil- son, Mrs. A. F. Heimlich, Mrs. A. F. Morgan, Mrs. E. J. Huber, Mrs. C. C. Tinker. ....i1..T1.l.... THE QUORUM BANQUET. On the night of Feb. 14, the Quorum held its Annual Banquet in the Hall of the High School. As it was Valentine's Eve the color scheme was .carried out with little red hearts, heart shaped cookies and candy, and Valentines with appropriate verses for each member of the Quorum.

It was under the management of Miss Southwick and an able corps of assistants. The banquet was given in honor of George and Martha Wash- ington , who presided over the tables set in a hollow square, and surrounded by guests in powder and patches, wigs and tuck-ups . The red-white-and blue color scheme, and the Washington-colonial idea was observed in all details of decoration and menu, even to colonial candlesticks and the cocked-hat cherry tarts 'with hatchets stuck therein.

The success of this unique program and banquet was due to the untiring effort and inspiration of Miss Southwick, at whose clever touch all turns to wit. The various committees under Miss Kent, Miss Donoho, Mr. Mickelson. and Mrs. Byrd gave assistance. Especial credit is due to Miss Roberts and to Miss Tornoe and Miss Mitchell for their original and artistic work. THE SENATE FARCE. Very much in accordance with the occasion, was the farce, which the Senate gave in the Assembly Room, after the banquet. The name, Love in Seventy-Six , suggests the theme.

This farce was more elaborate than any attempted recently, the costumes came from San Francisco and from Mrs. Pendergast, who so generously loaned many old keepsakes, which carried out the spirit of the farce. The cast is to be congratulated on the splendid character-work done, the work of Miss Florence Brosius being especially commendable. Miss Donoho staged the farce and to her is due the beautiful stage-setting and the pleasing stage-pictures presented. ..l JUNIORS ENTERTAIN THE SENIORS. On Friday evening, April 11, the Junior Class entertained the Seniors by a beach tea held in the Japanese Tea Garden. The affair was one of the most delightful of the season, uniting the two classes in a closer bond of good fel- lowship. To their guests, the Juniors sang the class songs, sung at the Senior play. These songs deserve especial mention for they were far above the ordinary run of Junior songs, reaching often the plane of real music. Some of the songs were written by Elsa Wilson, Carmelita Parma, the class president, Irene Finley and May Kellogg. The talent, in both literary and musical lines promises well for next year. We, the class of 1913, thank the Junior class president, Carmelita Parma, who made so gracious a hostess, and the class of 1914, for a most delightful evening. 11i.,1.l TRACK DANCE. The Fifth Annual Track Dance was held at Pythian Hall, April 19, 1913. The evening was marked by the spirit of true sport for Santa Paula showed herself to be a good winner, while, the also rams proved even better losers. During the evening the medals were awarded by our principal, Mr. Olney. The success of the dance was due to manager, John Newton and the chairmen of various committees: Reception, Miss Hunt, Refreshment, Ida Thompson, Programs, Martha Graham 5 Decoration, Georgia Carmany. Especial mention should be accorded the decorations which, carried out in flowers, and pennants of the various schools, were most striking. The patronesses were: Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Janneyg Mrs. Scott, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. Pico, Mr. and Mrs. Morgan. I 82 ' THE OLIVE AND GOLD SOPHOMOREV DANCE. The class of 1915 gave their annual dance at Pythian Hall, May 9, 1913. Class dances have been particularly successful this year and the sophomore dance was no exception. The hall was a delight to the eye, the decoration scheme being in the class colors, red and green, and carried out with red geraniums and pepper boughs. Charles Pierce acted as manager, and, together with the president, Mary Graham, and the following committee chairmen, made the dance a success: Reception, Mathilda Muflieman, Decoration, Lois Mitchell, Invitation, Ruth King, Refreshment, Louise Hendersen. The patronesses were: Dr. and Mrs. G. G. Graham, Mrs. Byrd, Mrs. Pierce, Mrs. Ewald, Mr. and Mrs. Ford, and Mrs. Mitchell. A Dexa Strait, '13. .-1 THE FLOWERS OF YESTERDAY. Where are the flowers of yesterday That whitened all the sweep of yonder lea? Their fragrance with the salt breath of the .sea Hath mingled, drifting o'er the downs, away To distant heath. Ah, blossoms of a day! The cheery cricket chirps no more in glee Among the butter-cups. The blue-bird free Has left the thorn. The joys of yesterday Are gone. The fresh delights of youth are fled, Evanish'd like late flowers neath autumn leaves, When Frost, with iridescent sparkle dusts the dales. But though the summer of the years is sped, And faded are her vari-colored wreaths, Their mem 'ry lives and cheers through winter's gales. - Josephine Morgan, '13, ' 'QHIEXWEES EXCHANGES. Owing to the shortage of our Christmas number of the Olive and Gold , we were unable to send out a great many of our exchanges and so have not received as many this term. We are glad, however, to find some entirely new ones, and to the following, both new and old, we extend our heartiest greetings: Caerulia , Long Beach, Cal., May, '13- A very complete and interesting magazine from cover to cover. Why not place your editorials and staff at the beginning of the book? ' ' Whims ' ', Seattle, Washington- For a monthly magazine, yours is certainly one to be proud of. Your joshes are the best we have yet seen. Occidental , Los Angeles, Cal.- We are expecially pleased to learn that two of our former schoolmates,- Miss Hallie Smith and Will Pollard-are on the staff of this very commendable book. The article by Miss Smith, Come Up Higher , sounds like an echo of our own High. The Round Up , Douglas, Wyoming- Why not comment on your exchanges? It adds interest to the department. An index would greatly improve your book. College Chipsn, Decorah, Iowa- A most instructive paper and one full of good literary criticisms. The Hemnica , Red Wing, Minn.- A book of excellent literary quality, but an index is very much needed. The Dawn , Esparto, Cal.- An extremely well-edited book! Your idea of famous quotations from great men is worthy of mention. The Gondolicrn, Venice, Cal.- We have only praise for your book. The Samolic , Santa Monica, Cal.- Your literary departments and joshes are especially good, but better cuts would be an improvement. El Chasqui , Chino, Cal.- 84 THE OLIVE AND GOLD You have a very interesting book, although the literary department might be improved by a little poetry. The Leavett Angelus , Turner Center, Maine- lAn index and an exchange department are lacking in your otherwise splendid paper. 1 The Distafn, Boston, Mass.- Your departments are all well-handled and your editorial is particularly fine. Manual Arts , Los Angeles, Cal.- Your book is certainly attractive, but why no index? Can you not give your exchanges a more prominent place? Rosamond Bradbury, '13, i. .......-.l-- FRIENDSHIP. Through twilight 's thickening veil one star gleams bright. In that clear star a face I see, and hear The insistent Words, re-echoed through the year, That ask'd for friendship. This boon did I requite, But thou, who ratest e'en such gift as light, Didst take and cast away. Oh, may the star And night 's soft-stealing shades dissolve the bar- The cold distrust-that holds thee in its might, ' Then thou 'lt look up and know that friendship true Burns ever, and through faith and love doth learn To look-not for defects-but for the soul That 's tuned unto its own. Thou wilt pursue Thy -answering star, and of thyself Wilt turn Thy face to higher Friendship 's perfect goal. Ruth' Sentell, '13.

The Senior Play: It has been rumored that there is on foot a movement to discontinue the production of the annual senior play. The members of the Alumni Associa- tion desire to protest against such a measure. We believe that the maintenance of the Scholarship Fund through the senior plays is a noble project and should not be discontinued. We also believe that the training which the senior students receive in giving these plays, is worth any course given in high school. We consider it our duty to uphold every high school custom' which forwards the students educationally, and which tends toward a broadening of high school life. We, therefore, wish, as an organization to state that we are heartily in favor of a continuation of the annual senior play. Alumni Items. Notes of interest concerning members of the Alumni Association. Engagement: ' Miss Mary Merriman has announced her engagement to Mr. Roderick Thompson, of this city.

H. S. 1....1..........-1 CLASS ORGANIZATION TO THE END OF BETTER ALUMNI WORK. The class of 1910 is taking the first step toward a better organized, more capable and more efficient Alumni Association for the Santa Barbara High School. Through organization, this class plans to give to the alumni the com- bined services of its entire membership. A constitution, by-laws, class ofdcers, THE OLIVE AND GOLD 87 and a schedule of regular reunions are included in the plans of the 1910 grad- uates. Through its president and secretary the class will offer service to the Alumni Association, and through the same officers each class member will be acquainted with his duties as a member of the Alumni of the Santa Barbara High School. The personal intimacy between class oilicers and members will make possible quicker, more intelligent, and more productive response than Alumni officers could ever secure by direct appeal. The members of the class of 1910 planned this organization at their last reunion, held in the high school in December. Twenty-five of the original fifty members were present. The success was due to an undying class spirit, a for- tunate sequence of circumstances, and the plan to hold the banquet during the regular dinner hour so that evening engagements did not interfere. When the 1910'ers were gathered around the table enjoying the good fel- lowship, which is the reward of four years co-operation in a common school interest, they realized that they could not afford to risk the failure of future reunions for lack of organization. Thereupon, by unanimous vote, the old president was re-elected to serve until plans for permanent organization could be made in committee and adopted at the next meeting. The class of 1910 realizes that the same difficulties which beset their reunion would be a greater hindrance in any attempt at organized alumni work. It, therefore, instructed its committee to frame the proposed class constitution so as to make easy an eifective participation in all alumni Work. Under such a constitution the class of 1910 will soon be ready with organized forces to attack alumni problems whenever the alumni officers may call for its service. Submitted by the Class of 1910.
