Each year’s production is a greater success than the previous one. More strenuous road tests are given Packard cars than any others — wit- ness, the three test cars driven every three months across continent and back. The Packard car is the most effici- ent piece of machinery ever put up- on the highways. Packard is the only motor car that has had the same uninterrupted local representation for ten_consec- utive seasons.

Two years ago, the students of the South Pasadena High School became acquainted with a word, which, since then, has become a source of inspiration. This word is “‘codperation,” and it was introduced to, has been impressed upon, and is now embodied in our high school life by Principal Upjohn. As a result, athletics, the Student Body Organization, and, indeed, every activity in the school, has prospered under this régime of joint action. In fact, for the editing of a High School annual there could be found no better slogan than the word “cooperation.” It is ideal, unique, and exact. We have tried to fashion our Copa de Oro with that word preéminent in our minds. The Faculty, the Student Body, the English Department, and especially the Art Department, have put their shoulders behind the Staff: and, as a consequence, this Annual ought to be the quam maximum et optimum edition of all years. And this will be true in spite of the dubiousness with which we began this work, and because of the slogan adopted from our Principal, the word “coGperation.” Next Year January, the first, found the Senior Class of 1914 in a serious predicament. The great task of editing the 1914 Copa de Oro lay before them. Still it was not so much the difficulty of management that confronted them, as it was the question as to whom were the proper persons for the different positions on the Staff. No one in the class had ever had any experience; so, how could the officers be chosen wisely? After that question had been temporarily determined, the Staff was puzzled as to how to proceed with business. The educating of the Staff along the lines of school publications followed. Seniors were called upon to gather all the High School Annuals on which they could lay their hands. At least one month was spent in preparation for activities, rather than for actual progress; and even at the present time we often feel our limitations due to lack of experience. ‘This Senior dilemma, which appeared this year before the eraduating class, is the same which has troubled every Senior Class and will continue to puzzle every succeeding one as long as the present plan of publication is continued. Hence the method is unsatisfactory and inefficient. A workable plan will be that one which will educate the best material in the school from Freshman to Senior, so that when the fourth year is reached an adequate amount of experience and knowledge will be the property of the man- agers in charge. There is only one way to accomplish this, and that is to have some of the underclassmen, members of the Annual Staff. ‘There are several ways to arrange for this in case next year’s class should wish to follow this suggestion. A satisfactory arrangement might be to have the Business Manager and Editor-in- Chief elected from the Senior class, thus enabling men of experience to be in these positions ; to have the Assistant Business Manager, Assistant Editor-in-Chief, and the important Editors picked from the Junior Class; and to have the rest of the Editors and Associate Editors chosen from among the ranks of the underclassmen. This arrangement would enable the Annual to be managed by the most capable and most experienced members of the entire Student Body. We, who have published this Annual and who have had our troubles as to the proper handling of it, urge that the next year’s Senior Class consider a new plan from an unselfish viewpoint—a new plan which would increase the value of the Annual to the High School and would at the same time promote better efficiency. It would be but one step: more in making this Annual a school publica- tion and not one limited to the Seniors. However, this is only a suggestion and not a request, from a departing Senior Class, who would like to see the Copa de Oro become the largest and best High School Annual published by any similar institu- tion in the Southwest. Money. Through the help of the public-spirited advertisers this year, the management of the Annual has been able to spend nearly one thousand dollars in its work, and we feel deeply indebted to them for their splendid support. But we have heard rumored a great deal of comment and criticism as to our lavishment of money this year, and we feel called upon to defend ourselves. This does not come from our advertisers, who give the money, but from individuals who probably are not well informed as to the business end of the Annual. If it were not for the fact that we are trying to do our best and to give to the South Pasadena High School the biggest and best advertisement which it has ever received, we would feel that we had squandered money. But not so! We hope that anyone reading our nnual and understanding the facts will instantly say that all was worth while. 23 BOARD OF EDUCATION Mr. JOHN E. DUBLIN, President Mr. J. W. Moore Mr. E.

Memory sometimes fails us and things are cast aside as new interests in life attract us. To hold together all memories, the Alumni of South Pasadena High School have formed an endless chain of friendship, each class composing a link ee this class of June, 1914, joins the Association, eight links will be com- pleted. Our hearts ieee with love and admiration when we think of the growing import ince of each class. Eight years ago the chain was a hope. Now that hope has, in every way, been fulfilled in that we have an Association membership of ninety-eight graduates. The only requisite to membership in the Alumni Association is granted in the presentation of the diploma, together with the realization of the purpose of our organization. Alma Mater—how those two words have played in and out of our fondest memories of four years! MARGARET BricKkEts, ‘11. SD THE CLASS OF 1907. The South Pasadena High School was started in the fall of 1904, when Mr. Noble Harter, the principal of the schools and eighth grade teacher, taught four high school subjects to four girls and a boy in one corner of the eighth grade room of the Center Street School Three of these pupils—Freda Coward, Marion Burns and Helen High—kept on with their studies and with three others who entered the school later formed the first graduating class. Edna Mungor and Hazel Finch entered in the second year when the High School was formally organized with thirty-two pupils, and Ethel Bashore entered in her Senior year. The new High School building was completed in April, 1907, and in June the class held the first graduation exercises in the new eee y Hall. Three of the class are still in South Pasadena: Edna Ahawon who is now Mrs. Lester Goldman, keeps house for husband and son and daughter; Marion Burns graduated from the Pacific College of Osteopathy, and is now a ver¥ successful osteopathic p hysician ; Helen High went to Stanford, where she obtained her Master’s degree, and is now at the Mount Wilson Solar Observatory. Freda Coward went to Normal School and taught for a year in EF] Monte. She married Mr. Alfred Staples, and they are now living at Seal Beach with their daughter, Marjory. Hazel Finch is now Mrs. Saheetien and lives in Dulzura, and Ethel Bashore is teaching in San Diego. Heten Hicu, ’07. } THE CLASS OF 1908. Six years ago the Class of 1908 gave as their Class Play, “The Journey of the Eleven.” Bright things were prophesied for each one, and, in six more years, we may be more able to tell if they have attained that which the Prophetess foretold. But let us see where the “Eleven” are now, for none of them have been idle. Since last year there have been a few changes: Miss Bessie Farrell has deserted the ranks of school teachers, is married, and as Mrs. Peter Ryerson lives in Brawley, Calif. Eunice Baldwin is the other married member of the class. Miss Muriel Trott has joined the ranks of the school teachers, who include Mildred Chase, Pearl Crutchfield, Lillian Hilliard and Maude Thompson. Miss Mary Gillies has graduated from Occidental College, and is now a Secretary in the Los Angeles Y. W. C. A. Miss Anna Miller holds a responsible office position in Los Angeles, and, last but not least, of the two men members of the class, Leon xtman is employed in Los Angeles and Clarence Lewis is in Colorado. And so the eleven who started bravely on their way are thus far on their journey. Mary GILttEs, ’08. +S THE CLASS OF 1909. Ridiculous as the prophecies of the “sweet girl eraduate” may have seemed to us that eventful evening as we tried vainly to imagine retiring “Reginald” as a professional acrobat, or demure “Dorothy” as a tango teacher, five years of swiftly moving time have placed our classmates in positions and circumstances which collectively seem nearly as unbelievable as the weird, uncontrolled flight of imagination, perpetrated in that bromidic class pr¢ yphecy. True. the individual forecasts were ill directed, but that is fortunate, for what if by luck or divination she had managed to predict some of them right? Wouldn’t that have been uninteresting? As it is, instead of this class of twenty members having a representative in every foreign country, we are still confined to the limits of California, Colorado, and Alaska. Instead of twenty lives of blessed singleness as she might have prognosticated for the sake of inspiring awe to her hearers, seven of our number are married, the largest per cent of any class, and things look desperately serious in a few more cases. Instead of professional ball players and theatrical managers, as her fantastical imagery would picture some of us, we have honest plumbers and honest lawyers, the adjective being a peculiar one to use with either occupation ; instead of ministers, sporting editors ; instead of music teachers, real estate dealers; instead of matinee idols, kinder- garten teachers. Wouldn't it have been laughable to have suspicioned one of our number of ever becoming a vinegar manufacturer, or an athletic coach, or a busi- ness college professor, or a civil engineer ¢ But these are only a few of the honest callings that the twenty members of the class of 1909 have chosen to follow. All are making good and fulfilling Professor Bush’s expectations of the BEST class that has graduated. Cart Cooper, 09. ! 7 THE CLASS OF 1910. The year 1914 marks the fourth anniversary of graduation for the Class of 1910. For those of our number who huve sought further knowledge in the way of college or university work, it marks another great commencement in their lives. Some of the class have sought knowledge and influence in the world of business, all of whom are striving to make a name for themselves and do honor to their Alma Mater. Whether as teacher, housekeeper, student, or seeker of professions, the Class ® of 1910 refers you to Superintendent Bush, who will most certainly assure you that that class was the best one that ever graduated from South Pasadena High School—that year. Mivprep Kerru, 710. Sm THE CLASS OF 1911. began—the fall of Rome, the discovery of America, and the graduation of the Class of 1911. Furthermore, the shining lustre of the brilliant “fifteen” has never waned, for now we see them—some leading their juniors to higher planes of education: a number seeking the founts of greater knowledge; others treading the path of J. P. Morgan, and one venturing on that higher, nobler road of domestic tranquility. three events of primary importance have occurred since this world’s history Again our belief in ourselves is further exemplified by the following incident. member of the class confidentially informed the writer, in all seriousness, that thus far in life he had always done the expected, but very, very soon he was going to do the unexpected. Whether he intends to build a second Panama Canal or become the future President of Mexico remains a deep mystery. But whatever happens we know he will be worthy of the numerals of ’11. In our efforts to conquer greater things and to keep our reputation we have wandered far from the scenes of our childhood days. But wh en we pause in our work to read a newly published Copa de Oro, or stray back at graduation time to welcome others about to join the ever growing throng of Alumni, then it is that he happy memories of those by-gone years spent at S. P. H. S. steal upon us. In the same way we fear that those who follow us, as they struggle toward he goal, will let slip from their memories the wonderful achievements of the Class of ‘ll. However, we hope, as they read these few lines, the days when our intel- ectual faces brightened the study hall and our mere presence gladdened the eachers’ hearts will be recalled by all with great delight. We greet you, Class of ‘14, and wish you the greatness that has been ours. ut 1f, by chance, you should falter by the wayside, remember the faithful fifteen are ever ready at your bidding. HELEN Mason, ’11. 33 THE CLASS OF 1912. The Alumni that were born in 1912 are very modest. We always demur against press interviews and the subsequent exploitation of our charms and follies through newspaper “Columns of the Great.” But “this is different”—and here endeth our preface. Two years is a long time. It has meant for most of us the difference between the joyful possession of sixteen perfectly good credits and the realization that Life is a bigger place than High School. U. of C. is wiser—and better—we trust, for the presence there of our wizard, “Ramo.” Nineteen-twelve’s delegate to Pennsylvania University should now be an influential Sophomore, valiantly upholding the principles of equal suffrage in the Quaker State. And there are others! Local colleges boast them—Normal is trying to turn them into school teachers—Cuminock is adding charm to the fluency of Gladys’ speech. Fred is a “regular fellow” in the real estate game habit of Thrift formed early in life, you know. And here, too, “there are others.” A surprisingly large number of us are learning to know the world as real business “shows it up.” As for George Allen— he’s started up the primrose path to glory as a surveyor, in the footsteps of another George, whose name comes down to us as “The Father of His Country.” We could tell how the Physics Class of 1912, Professor Thompson’s pride and joy, has triumphed in the production of a telegrapher, a plumber and an exponent of the electrical glories of the Pacific Light Power Company. We could recount other interesting careers in progress at home and abroad, but the Copa de Oro Editors will “blue-pencil” our article if we talk too long Hrvten Royce, 712. making money! The Soy THE CLASS OF 1913. When, at the close of one short year after our graduation from S. P. H. S., we pause a moment and look about us, we find that many changes have taken place in the Class of 13. Of the forty-eight who graduated in 1913, over half the number are now attending higher institutions of learning, though a few have already entered the world of business. Four members of the class are uph olding the honor of S. P. H. S. at Pomona, six at Occidental, three at U. of C., three at Stanford, and one at U. S. C. The class is also represented in Eastern colleges. Miss Gillies is developing her musical talents and is rapidly becoming famous as an organist. Miss Walker, Miss Dodson, and Miss Hamm are also studying music. Much more might be said of the world wide (?) fame which the Class of 713 is rapidly acquiring if space would permit, but, as this is impossible, we will simply say that no matter where we may be, our thoughts turn often to the four years of joy and pleasure spent within our Alma Mater, during which we, honored and respected by all the underclassmen (especially the Juniors?), were the delight and pride of our teachers’ hearts and the joy of their lives.

A history is a chronicle, setting forth in an unprejudiced manner the develop- ment of a race, a nation or a high school class. No man is absolutely unprejudiced in regard to anything in which he is interested. A historian must also be very familiar with the race, nation or class whose history he attempts to set down. Ask an Englishman to write a history of England, and he deals at length with the early wars and struggles between England and France, and mentions the following: “In 1775-81 the American Colonies rebelled successfully against the British Crown.” Ask an American to write a history of the United States, and he expounds and dotes on the glorious Revolution of 1775, and perhaps apologizes for the war of 1812. Following the course of reasoning, it is an obvious injustice to ask a Senior to write a history of the Class of ‘14. He may write a series of events, but it will be no history. It will be a record of what ‘We, the Senior Class of 1914,” accomplished. No man sees his class as others see it, and no Senior can tell an unprejudiced story of the Class of 1914 through the four years that it has been in this High School. Another class is soon to leave the South Pasadena High School, the Class of Nineteen Fourteen. Before us lies a future, impenetrable and unknown; back of us, a history, interesting and brilliant. Were we to give a complete account of these deeds to one unacquainted with our class, not only would the story sound egotistical, but also the other less fortunate classes would be filled with envy. Accordingly, we state only a few bare facts. We first united in the autumn of nineteen hundred ten; Freshmen, green and ignorant, with only grammar school wisdom. When the roll was taken and the students counted, the other classes were surprised, and a little put out, to learn that we had the largest attendance of any class in the history of the school. As one might expect, we did not immediately rout the others in athletics or in debating; but we were able to hold our own in scholarship. Asi for athletics that year, one-third of the baseball team, one-fifth of the basketball team, one-fourth of the track team, one-half of the tennis team, and one-third of the girls’ basket- ball team were Freshmen. We returned to school our Sophomore year, wiser in the ways of the world and knowing full well the responsibilities that rested upon our shoulders: the responsibility of educating the Freshmen. We treated them gently until they became accustomed to the ways of high school life, and then sought for the winning of contests from them as well as from the other classes in the school. The Orchestra was organized that year, one-half of whose members were Sopho- mores. Three of our men were on the baseball team, two girls and three boys on the tennis team, one on the basketball team, and five on the track team. An 48 inter-class track meet resulted in a score of sixty-five and one-half points for the Sophomores and twenty-one points for the Freshmen, our closest competitors. Later in the season, two school records were broken by our classmates in the 440-yard dash and mile run. s Juniors we began to outgrow our early pranks and to turn to the more serious side of school life. We not only absorbed a vast amount of knowledge, but also again led the school in most activities of student life. We had two officers in the Student Body, three officers in the Student League, the same number in the Orchestra, three representatives in the Mandolin Club, three men on the baseball team, two on the tennis team, two on the basketball team, and five on the track team. ‘That year there was organized a football team, on which were four Juniors, including the captain. And now we are Seniors, fifty in number. This year we have founded the Students’ Codperative Bookstore, an institution which has done, and is bound to do, a great deal of good in our school. Twenty-two members of our class, or in other words, about fifty per cent, are the proud possessors of monograms, one member wearing four. Three members of the class represented the school in tennis, four in basketball, five in football, six in track. five in debate, and as for | the Copa de Oro, let it speak for itself. We realize that our life in the strenuous days of class encounters and Cwsar translations is nearly done, and that we are about to go out into the world— some to colleges, others here and there over the entire globe. No doubt it will seem strange to us not to be actively engaged in upholding, in class conflicts, the honor of “1914”; no doubt we shall often pine for the fray, i1 1 which once more we may fight for our good old class. Yet our battles are by no means over: they are only changed in character: and may we, in the struggles now before us, so conduct ourselves that we may ever bring honor to our class and to our Alma Mater.

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1915. A class is truly great only in proportion to its active value to the school. In the Class of 1915 of the South Pasadena High School all efforts have tended toward a general usefulness. ‘To be sure, there might have been no striking evi- dence of this characteristic at first. In fact, some say that the class did nothing its first year. Yes, it is true that it did nothing—that is, nothing that proper, well-bred little Freshmen should not do—but this absence of aggres- sive notoriety was a feature indicative of the appropriate modesty of the wee Freshmen who observed with wise foresight the rule that they should just be seen and not heard. Moreover, those who consider conditions philosc yphically will see that, in reality, this was an important period of the formation of broad basic prin- ciples. Upon these principles depended all following events of success. In the three great activities of school life, debating, athletics and studies, there was long, steady toil with little honor. The achievements the first year were, comparatively, not remarkable. And yet, realizing that every moment then improved would increase its future usefulness, the class kept plodding on. Finally. ample proof was given of the value of such thorough training and persistent practice. In debating, Hugh Waddell and Genevieve Ocheltree, who gradually devel- oped from the victorious inter-class team of 1913 to a victorious inter-scholastic team, gave the entire school reason to be genuinely proud of them. On the occasion of the South Pasadena-San Pedro debate, they not only won, but received both first and second places. The progress in athletics is quite as evident as that in debating. In 1912-13, when our high school made its debut in football, the Sophomore team distinguished itself by winning the Sophomore-Freshman game, by a score of 30-0. But, far better than this, one-half of the varsity team was composed of Sophomores. ‘The class was secretly glad that the team did not make a brilliant showing this first year, for it thus came to appreciate the grit and the courage of its football men. The improvement showed by the team this year is a specific manifestation ot these qualities. In track and in tennis, the class has been very ably represented by men who have been admirably faithful in their work. Baseball was exceptionally successful in the year of 1913. The S. P. H. oS: team was a close second to the champion team, and the brilliant batting average of .301 was attained. This was due partially, to say the least, to the high-class style of playing exhibited by the baseball men from the Class of 1915. In athletic activities and in the general routine of school life, there is, perhaps, not so much personal, spectacular glory as in the line of debating and oratory. ‘That, however, certainly does not decrease the value of such activities. With such a football captain as “Benny” Cravens, and such a baseball captain as “Sprecks” Allen, and such a ‘Starr’ on the merit list as Mildred, none can doubt the true value of the class of 1915 to $.

When first the class of 1916 launched out on the rough and tumble sea of High School life there was a rather small crew to direct its course. All these were efficient oarsmen, however, as was shown by the way in which they buckled up against the odds which always confront Freshmen. Although from the first, the 15’s enjoyed looking down on our comparatively small numbers, they soon began to look the other way, for on the girls basketball team there were two live representatives of the Freshmen, who helped the team gain an honorable place in the league. ‘These were Laura Malcomson, of the long arm, and Marymae Cattern, of the pattering feet. On the aforesaid team there was a conspicuous absence of Sophomores. Although we had no representatives on the school football team, we were not sorry, for we had the honor of winning the only victory from outside teams won by the High School. In the second year of our course we proved ourselves even better, for on the school basketball team Robert Hadden was the star forward, besides several on the lightweight team who did fine work. On the football team the star was Harold Cass, halfback, and we also had two fine ends, who through misfortune did not represent S. P. H. S. in many games, and still others who are promising players. ‘This year in track we have made a good many points in field events, also, in which we did not excel the first year, our stars being Oscar Bischoff in high and broad jumps and Kenneth Sweet in the sprints. We are showing up well in baseball aiso, this year, Ralph Wood being an extraordinary pitcher, leading the school to victory through his peculiar curves. But athletics is not our only forte. We have a great many Sophomores helping the Student Body with their services: Catherine Howard writes all the checks for the Student Body, and we have several with dramatic and debating futures. We also have the champion ticket seller, Nellie Wong, who shows great school spirit in that way. In the Student Body Book Exchange, we have all the officers, St. Pierre being manager, Ed Filley assistant manager and Robert Hiles bookkeeper. We show our originality in ways too numerous to mention here, but one of the best exponents is our wonderful yell leaders. The Class of 716 has other merits as well as those named. We have unusual class spirit, as shown by the good crowd that went to the class picnic up in the Arroyo Seco in the spring of 1913; such a good time was enjoyed by all that we expect many such pleasures in the future. Although a small class, we were the only class able to keep its numerals on the hill near the school for any length of time. ‘hen this year we again raised our numerals, this time on a flag, which was raised on the new flagpole. But class spirit is not the only kind of spirit we have, for we are always glad to help our Alma Mater. The Sophomore girls rented the Mission Theatre March 26, and, with the sale of candy, they netted $33.46, which they presented to the Seniors to use for the Annual, which this year is a Student Body rather than a Senior function. : Although the Juniors may sneer at our small numbers, let them remember that quality is better than quantity. “Don’t worry—just watch us grow !” Heten Turtir, 16. he Senior Class, appre- rating the loyal support of the Sophomore Class, Dedicate this page to the class of 1918. 58 4 FRESHMEN CLASS HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1917. As the life of the Freshman Class of! South Pasadena High School has been much shorter than that of the others, its history wil! necessarily be more briet. However, this fact does not call for uninteresting material, for the class has striven from the very first to make its history one that will be of interest not only to themselves, but to the higher classes as well. So far, the Freshmen have been very successful in all their undertakings, whether in basketball, baseball, track work or studies. As to the three former, the Freshmen boys, at the first of the year, organized a basketball team, which proved eminently successful. One member, Don Wheaton, has made the first baseball team, and has also won his letter in track work. Another, Evangeline Stonebrook, has the highest standing in the s chool for the first semester, and a large number of Freshmen names appear from time to time on the merit list. The class numbers eighty-four, being the largest first-year class which has entered this High School. The predictions are that the Freshmen, when organized as a Senior Class, will constitute the biggest, as to numbers and as to mental and physical ability, that has been graduated from the school for several years. At least their purpose will go with them the next three years: to do now, and to do well each common duty as it presents itself to them.

Financially the year has been a very prosperous one; start- ing the year out with twenty dollars, and s pending more than ever before, we will end the season with over two aed dollars to our credit in the local bank. In athletics the school has also done something. Football started off with a decided victory over Venice High School and ended ina great Thanks: giving Day game, in which we were victors although it was a 13 to 13 tie. In baseball the team has reached the highest point ever attained by any South asadena High School team. We are the champions in our section of the league and as a reward will win a pennant, the first trophy ever to be won by a local team. The scholarship has also been raised to a very cre sditable standard, and instead of having just one “shark,” there have been sev eral this Vic dium Veo mune nyea ts a has stood for prosperity and dev Agar in all branches of the school lif This year has seen the adding of a new business to the Student Body.

Thus, the students are now the sole owners of a profitable business, and are only required to sit back in their seats and listen to the monthly report of the manager to see the money come pouring in. As an aid to urge us to better ideals and attainments, we have had many interesting addresses by successful men in the different walks of life.

HIGH SCHOOL FRIENDSHIP. MONG the innumerable, valuable experiences afforded by the four years of high school life, the one that is perhaps the most lasting and of most worth is the real- ization of one’s ability to make friends; not the casual, speaking acquaintance, but the sympathetic and sincere school friendships that are necessary to the best develop- ment of the girl or boy. But so worthy an art is this forming of true friendship that these four years of earnest endeavor seem to be necessary for one to reach that state of development, when he may find and also be- come a real friend. And fascinating, indeed, is this evolution of abilities for the development of and the capacity for the enjoyment of such relationships of mutual respect and esteem. The Freshman in his innocent way blandly acqui- esces in the patronage of his fellow-students, blissful in the recognition of his upperclassmen, and while he apparently takes with Jamblike acquiescence what comes, he really has dawning ideas as to “who's who and why.’ Yet, with all this apparent lack of divination of charac- ter he has a smoldering spark, which, fanned by the four winds of High School experience, will burst into the flame of capacity and understanding of real friendship. With the Sophomore year comes a premature realization of one’s own indi- vidual worth and with it a desire for a kind of companionship that almost amounts to clannishness. Hence, the basis of friendship at this time of one’s experience is apt to be selfish. Of course a few exceptions may be found, but after the last analysis is made, one is bound to note that the ‘‘school chum” is selected who can be of most personal benefit as far as social enjoyment is concerned. If some un- happy misfortune befalls the lot of this selected chum—‘Bump’’—he is dropped, perhaps to be picked up at leisure, if the ‘Time, the Place, and the Girl” permit. In fact, he is experiencing the same development through which the human race passed in its tribal stage—each small faction in constant war with the rest. Yet the incessant winds of experience continue to blow, until in the Junior year one is awakening to the true realization of his relationship to people. He nds himself, not as he once thought, the center of the universe, but a minute, yet necessary, part in the best development of his class and surroundings. With this broadening vision, he begins anew by private soliloquies to determine the truce relationships of society. Naturally these ideas cannot long remain secret, but are bound to be poured into the ears of the safe confidant, who, though expert- encing exactly the same reformation, has beet: backward about expressing such “crazy ideas.” With this uniting of spring freshets a power bursts forth which rushes unfettered to the seas of human emotions. As the ancients believed— “he soul of man is only a larger whole and goes out in search of other souls, in which it will find its true completion. We walk among worlds unrealized until we have learned the secret of love.” 68 = With the completion of the last and dearest year of all, the worthy Senior gains an appreciation of his fellow students, their loves, joys, trials, trivialities and ispirations, and with the gaining of this appreciation discovers also a sympathetic something away inside, which longs for expression in service to others. But the beauty of this Senior’s attitude is that his feelings of altruism are not limited to his own class, but pour themselves forth in radiations of sympathy even upon some faltering scrub. Friendships of this final year are lasting, for they are not built upon the quicksands of social enjoyment, nor even within the limitations of his departing class, but upon the adamantine rock of kindredness of spirit and unity of high ideals. Aristotle defined friendship as ‘‘one soul and two bodies.” But of course the capacity in the teens is not equal to Emerson’s “deified unity of the oversouls” even though it be making rapid strides, with the noblest of aspira- tions. It is in these affinities that one realizes his unlimited powers and capacities. [yriads of inspirations spring forth to gratify the friend’s yearnings which would otherwise have lain dormant forever. Nor are these well earned friendships to pass as delightful April showers, but remain firm to the last, though separated by physical changes, always a sacred reality of the finest discoveries of high school life.

ELwyn Perry, ’16. 69 Second Prize. “LADY.” K—— Military Academy, in a small town in the Middle West, is rated “Class A” by the United States War Department, and holds its dignity among the three hundred students under instruction there. Yet, naturally, there is found enough of the practical joke element so general in college life, which together with the youthful tendencies to exaggerated activities often produce experiences which, though harrowing at first, are finally productive of a certain awakening of a conscious recognition of the rights of others. “Confound it, | got to breathe. Assume a wee bit o’ responsibility, for a change. Can't you see I’m studyin’ ?” Jammed up under a heavy library table with a stream of purple ink running down his back, Warren Rodney was being “roughed,” as was the custom about this time of day, by his two roommates at the Frat-house. Because of his com- paratively small size, Warren had long since become accustomed to such uncom- fortable moments as he was just now experiencing. “Now, Lady,” one of the boys on one side of the table was saying, “you mustn't do anything that would tend toward any unnecessary increase in the pulsation of your heart. Conserve your energy in the presence of quiet com- panions ; your book on manners, over there in the sink, will tell you that.” “Aw, hen!” exclaimed Warren. “Such swearing as that is another thing I’ve been intending to caution you about. It shows bad bringing up. Anyone would know you were raised in a small town. Now, I am sorry, but you'll have to excuse us. We're going to the ‘Y. M.’ banquet tonight, so you may now resume your ‘Study of the Capabilities of the Cerebellum—With Notes.’ Sorry we can’t stay and listen to it. La, la, Lady dear; don’t let the fire go out.” “Good bye,” called the other, “you sweet little bunch of onion tops.” As the edge of the door came past the library table, Warren gave a con- cluding kick to help it along, and as soon as the lower hall door slammed he crawled out into open air. Warren was a small fellow with shiny red hair, an object of sport for his companions. But there was another reason for derisive remarks from his fellows —the source of his nickname. His Fifth Avenue manners, not taught on the campus, his neatness of dress and feminine delicacy, even in the midst of all this masculine atmosphere, had caused to be attached to his person the title of “Lady.” nd so it was, that when girls were short at social functions' around K—— there was one person almost as good as a real girl. Keenly as he felt the stinging teasing of his companions, he tried to take a philosophical view of the situation. A topic at a recent Christian Endeavor meeting, “A Long Look Ahead,” had made a deep impression upon the keen intellect and big heart, common accompaniments of that particular shade of hair. “Those poor simps have no reason whatever, none whatever. All the per- sonal respect ‘Mac’ ever had, you could drop into a mustard seed, and it would rattle around like shingle nails in Lake Erie. And Kloppe can’t talk reason until he gets on his dancing pumps and squeezes it out of his fool brain.” He stopped short in the midst of this mental summary. A new production of the art class caught his eyes, that blinked under the silky eyelashes which the fellows had clipped off and had now grown to an uncomfortable length. From the chandelier on the wall hung a small white card, neatly lettered with the fol- lowing :— “The violets are blue, The rose is red, And so is the hair On Lady’s head.” “I'd like to see Kloppe’s hair so red it would keep him in a perspiration. Some of these days I'll get back my goat and then it will be my turn to laugh. | feel it coming.” Warren’s disposition was sunny enough, but he felt that there Was a place to draw the line, even if all this was in jest. The lighter side of life was not shining his way. Eddie Kloppe and Malcolm Baldrige, who looked for sport alone, usually found enough to keep their souls from starving. “‘Kloppe”’ was of a wiry com- position and had played left end on the Academy team since his Freshmen days. Malcolm was built like a barrel, weighted two hundred and sixty, and had acquired the title, “Venus.” He made a popular center on the same team. Fate had allotted these three boys to the same room. And she was not through with her work. In the afternoon of that day, while the inspector was unexpectedly making his rounds, the door of the room having been thrown open, presented Warren with his feet on the table. Warren, out of luck, was served with a notice that he should explain, as was the custom, in a written statement to the Captain and the Orderly Officer his reason for such conduct. So before further pursuit of his studies he cleaned out a place on the top of the table large enough to spread a piece of note paper, and laid out the facts of the case to the best of his ability. Going quietly over to the office building, he entered and placed the note on the desk in the lighted, but vacant, office. He then returned to his studies, and two hours later rolled in for sweet dreams. He did not sleep, he merely dozed ; but suddenly he sat up with a start and, looking around the room, exclaimed half aloud, “Nobody home—I’ve got a neat idea; worth trying at least.” He arose, dressed, and throwing his pajamas and a collar into a grip, half-packed, and glancing around the room to assure himself that nothing was out of its natural order, quietly stepped out and closed the door behind him—the door he had kicked at from under the table. On the table in the cleared space lay a small note. After a while, the same door opetied slowly and a shower of cracker crumbs and wet olives fell on “Lady’s” bed. rota Lady. We brought you a present.” But no response came. Jimminy, he ain’t in sight. I guess he’s down at the office gettin’ the deuce ee putting his feet on the table. lf they ever got to examining heel prints, Kloppe, you wouldn't stand any show a-tall.” “Aw, let up, I’m sleepy. Spose, though, if vou don’t get it all out of mind now, you'll crystallize the axles or the castors with your snorin’, ‘bout time I start dreaming.” “Gee, you talk wors’n me. Get over, | want this side tonight.” a W ell, ain’t you going to douse that elim?” “Forgot that.’ As he reached up for the black button, he noticed the little brown note in the clearing on the table. He picked it up and glanced over the lines. “Come on with the darkness—— What's the matter?” Kloppe sat up in bed and blinked at Malcolm. “Read this,” exclaimed Malcolm in a voice so loud that Kloppe very nearly hisected the note. Nloppe’s face was almost devoid of expression as he read, half aloud, the following :— “To whom it may concern :— “Maybe so it is that | am not serving the purpose in the world that was intended for me. | should hate to feel that | were in anyone’s way, and so rather than remain with such on my mind, and such will stay as long as life, it is perhaps better that I leave this world and answer to Gabriel's roll call. “With hopes that you will forget, “WARREN K. RODNEY.” “For the love of Pete! “Spose he means it?” Malcolm had now recovered. “Mean it? Naw! He hasn't got the nerve.” “Maybe you're right,” said Kloppe, “but I guess we’ve been treatin’ him pretty rough lately, and everybody excepting a few and the girls all josh him. He ought to be used to it now, though. What if he should pull off a stunt like that ?’ “Aw, he won't. You'll see, he'll be at school tomorrow sure as anything. He won't miss Psychology as long as he has the chance to study.” Malcolm was so accustomed to “Lady's” timidity and lack of nerve that he could not stretch his imagination to a picture of “‘Lady’s” dropping off the trestle into the river or breaking into the medical laboratory and taking his pick of the death messengers there. The two thoughts, Lady—and suicide—they were too alien to be associated together. And Kloppe, who usually followed in the wake of Malcolm’s thought, looked at affairs in a similar manner. Both boys looked for an explanation of the matter in the morning, and why not ?—this was reasonable figuring. The following morning at inspection on the parade grounds, the cadets were rapidly falling into their places, when in a few moments the Lieutenant Colonel took his position with his staff before the double line of cadets. ‘The First Lieuten- ant Sergeant touched Kloppe on the shoulder and told him to take his position as First Sergeant. ‘‘Rodney’s not in his place this morning,” he said. Kloppe was not feeling comfortable, and after inspection he was looking over the campus for the regular First Sergeant and saw Malcolm doing the same thing. But the First Sergeant was not in sight. School began—two periods passed—and Kloppe’s brow was moist, but not warm; and while he took his seat beside Malcolm in pew No. 8, he knew that that boy also was feeling a whole lot like himself. Malcolm’s heart was losing time, for he had told the President of the note and of the incident in connection ; and as he had unfolded the matter before the man in the wheel chair, his boyish heart had seemed to conceive of the importance of the incident he was narrating. Seated in the high-back walnut chair at one side of the pulpit, the President sat, looking at the floor. The choir master took his position and announced the hymn. Ina moment the organ responded, and the choir with hushed voices chanted “Somebody Cares.” Just then Warren K. tiptoed down the aisle, and took his seat in pew No. 7. “A deuced practical joke.” remarked Knoppe. But was it a joke? Some- thing in Kloppe seemed to change just the least bit—something seemed to slip into place. Something was lost, but something was gained! Behind his desk the Captain and Orderly Officer unfolded a small addressed note which read :— ; ) Deamon “Concerning the matter of my feet on the table, the Second Lieu- tenant was behind the door; you did not see him, but he had his feet on the floor, so I put mine elsewhere.” “W. RODNEY,” “First Sergeant, Company K.” “Gee, what next? I'll let him out this time, I guess.” GLEN Aron, 715. 73 Third Prize THE OWL FAMILY AT EATON WASH. I first made their acquaintance on a spring afternoon, when hearing a loud clamor in a big sycamore tree, | went over to investigate. A motley crowd of sparrow hawks, blackbirds, bluejays, and woodpeckers were flying around the base of the tree, eae occasional lunges at something, but evidently afraid to do anything more than make a lot of noise The cause of this disturbance was a small gray owl, who was keeping them at bay by snapping his beak and hissing loudly. This was strange, as no owl in his right mind would stay on the ground and fight, when there was a comfortable hollow tree right above him. As I came nearer, the birds flew away, one by one, eiving me a chance to look at him more closely. He was not a large bird, not standing over ten inches in height ; he had prominent ear tufts, a large, puffy head, a bez vutifully marked gray and white breast, and short, muscular legs. When he caught sight of me, he spread out his wings, and stuck every feather on end until he looked twice his natural size. But he evidently regarded me as a worse enemy than the birds; for he wheeled around, flew swiftly to another tree, and dove into a deserted woodpecker’s nest. Now I saw why he had so bravely fought agains t the birds, and had even defied me. A small, downy, baby owl sat blinking in surprise, where the old one had been a minute before. I looked up instinctively and saw mother owl sitting at the entrance to the nest, looking down at me with angry disapproval. It was all clear now. The young one had fallen down, and father owl had stayed by him to see that he was not hurt. So I put the fluffy, hissing little bird into my coat pocket, and climbed up, and put him back into the nest, while all the reward I got was a sharp peck from mother owl. About a month after this the wash broke away, and cut a new channel, and as the owl tree was right in the wash it was torn down and thrown to one side. But when I looked at the nest a few days after, I found that all evidence pointed to its having been deserted for a long time. So the owl family still reigns in peace, in the Sycamore Grove at Eaton Wash. CHETWOOD SCHWARTZKOPE, 717. A MIDNIGHT EPISODE. Inside the brightly lighted salon of the gigantic greyhound Niadic, ali was laughter and gaiety. The great Italian opera singer was rendering one of his selections to an admiring audience. To look at this handsomely dressed assem- blage of men and women, one would have immediately thought of Delmonico’s or Sherry’s on a night during the gay season of New York’s social life. Among lose present were men who stood high up in the social and financial world. Also there were women who were leaders of society of the highest type. In heir every movement was depicted a life of luxury and ease sheltered from the ardships and the cold reality of life. Far different was it out upon the bridge of the Niadic. There it was snow- ing, and bitter cold. Ever since dusk, the ship’s engines had been working at alf speed, for in this blinding smother it was taking chances to proceed faster. Straining his eyes for sight of an iceberg or ships, stood the captain, dimly out- ined by the light over the compass. One hand rested on the engine-room tele- graph, with the other, he held to the rail to keep his balance against the ever increasing squalls. “A bad night,” advanced the Junior Officer. “Yes, so thick is this mist I’m half inclined to slow her even more,” replied his superior. “It's but ten minutes till midnight,” continued the former again, “perhaps it wouldn’t be a bad idea to try quarter speed from now till daylight.” “We are out of the general zone of ships, at present,” said the captain, roaring in order to be heard above the storm, “but perhaps we had better. We must never forget what happened to the Titanic.” Accordingly he pulled the lever of the engine-room telegraph and a minute later the steady rhythmic pulse of the engines had decreased. Down below, the elite had just begun to retire to their respective staterooms and suites, for the hour of midnight was almost at hand and even hardened social leaders recognized the fact that an ocean voyage, even under modern conditions, is a bit trying. Suddenly there ran a quiver through the ship that caused many to stop what they were doing and look at their neighbor in an inquiring manner. Above the noise of the ship could be heard hoarse cries and shoutings that spoke of something gone wrong. Here and there a woman gave a gasp of fancied terror and the face of the men took on a set look. Then almost as suddenly as it had happened the shouting ceased, the engines took up their monotonous ceaseless beat, the tension of the salon relaxed, and soon the incident was forgotten. Not so trivial had the matter been for the two men upon the bridge. Scarcely had the great ship been slowed to quarter speed when out of the gloom and darkness came the hoarse bellow of a ship’s fog horn. “Quick,” roared the captain, “they are right upon us.” Like a flash he rammed the handle of the telegraph to “Full speed astern,” and in the next instant the Junior Officer had sent a warning blast from the Niadic’s own horn. As the great ship quivered under the strain of the tre- mendous power exerted against her, out of the night loomed the twinkling lights of another greyhound. She was hard in front and was making great effort to stop. As it was, the two ships passed at close range, the men upon the Niadic shouting! to those on the other. “Lord,” breathed the Junior Officer, “but that was a close call “You bet,” replied the captain, “ten minutes earlier and we would have been going too fast to save us.” ” MaRCUERITE PERRY, 717. SUNSET ON THE OCEAN. The sun is slowly dying in the west ; Its beams rest lightly on each small wave-crest, Lingering in farewell. The waves respond With gurgling laughter, gleeful, carefree, fond, Dimpling now and then in sheer delight At their reflected colors, all so bright. The clouds are bathed in many a royal hue— Now lavender, now rosy pink, while blue Peeps thru the narrow rifts. Each fleecy fold, Each rim is edged with silver, shot with gold. The sun in gentle benediction lays A golden arm across the deep; its rays Kiss lightly and depart. The clouds so fair But now dissolve into the misty air. And soon the earth is robed in sombre gray As if it mourned the now departed day. ANNA Perxtns, ’16. AN WAS WF THE LANDSLIDE. “There, she’s done,” said Bill, as both boys arose from their work. “She” was a coaster which they had made out of four freight car wheels and axles connected by braces. It had two seats on the framework for the boys. ‘They intended to go up to the top of “Devil’s Slide,” a long, steep stretch of track, with a great many sharp curves, and coast down and up the next mountain until their car came to a stop. It was almost dark, but tying a lamp on to the framework, they half carried, half wheeled it to the Salt Lake tracks, about a quarter of a mile from their home. Placing it on the tracks Bill gave a big shove and hopped on behind his chum, Harold. They had greased the wheels, and after the car had gained momentum it almost left the track at the curves. “Some speed, huh?” asked Harold. “You bet, wish we could go faster,” replied Bill. “Why not get off and push?” suggested Harold. They were going about twenty-five miles an hour, when suddenly Bill became serious. “Gosh, I wish we had put a brake on her, ’sposing old ‘29’ caught up to us; she’s due pretty soon,” he said. “She won't catch us at this rate,” replied the other. He had hardly spoken, when the car flew around a curve and struck some- thing on the track, and threw the boys about twenty-five feet into the air, and then they dropped into some soft dirt. Bill heard Harold groan and ran over to where he was. ; “What's the matter?” he asked. “T lit on my arm,” the other answered, “I guess I broke ites Bill helped him over to the side of a large rock, so that he could sit up, and tied his arm ina sling. It was then that they thought of the cause of their acci- dent. They both thought it was a landslide. Harold suddenly turned pale, then took out his watch and looked at it. “Bill,” he gasped, “ ‘29’ is due in ten minutes!” Instantly Bill was full of life. He found the lamp, relit it, and tied his red bandana around it. It sent out a red light. “Make yourself comfortable, Harold,” he said, “I’m going to catch ‘29° be- fore she starts down ‘Devil’s Slide.’ So long.” He ran as hard as he could; harder than he had ever run before. He stumbled over the ties; picked himself up and ran on and on. He had exhausted his strength; he was now running on nerve, but he kept on. As he reached the top, he was blinded by the searchlight. , He swung his lantern viciously but the train did not stop. He knew that if it once started down that grade no brakes could stop it. As the train was almost on him he heard the two short blasts of recog- nition, and the grind of brakes. His work done, he jumped off the tracks and lay on the ground panting. The passengers began to swarm about the engine, with eager questions on their lips. ‘They found the panting, exhausted boy beside the tracks. “Don’t mind me,” he gasped, “attend to Harold, his arm’s bro )ken—he’s down the track aways,” and he sank into unconsciousness. They brought Harold up to the train and gave him the best aid that they could. Some one started the hat around, and the people, realizing their past danger, gave generously. Finally an old man pushed thru the crowd. “Sonnie, I haven't any money to give you, but I have something better than money—my most hearty thanks,” he said as he grasped Bill’s hand and shook it warmly.

Some think it but a sordid heritage, But dear to him was every wasted nook, The smell of flowers and the babbling brook, And there he lived, nor cared for broader stage, A happy hermit in his heritage. He, careful, read from Nature’s open book The lesson printed there by God. He took From all, nor failed to turn each priceless page, The bird the sweetest hymns of love did sing, The flowers gave their perfume to the air; All nature was alive, and sought to bring A message from a land more bright and fair, And these in song, he made more clear to ring, His heritage bore fruit we all can share. MarGARET McDONALD, THE WESTERN SKY. On red, west sky One can descry, The silhouettes and shadows ; On north, the mill Just o’er the hill, And trees that skirt the meadows.

It was a warm, sleepy afternoon. I lay dozing on the soft grass under a beautiful maple tree. ‘The bees droned lazily about the wild rose that crept along the stone wall, and even the birds were still; ‘al except the industrious woodpecker whose tap-tap seemed the only really wide-awake sound over the whole meadow. But as I lay there with my eyes half closed, I spied a little chipmunk not far off. Evidently ‘he had been in search of food and was just returning to his abode in the maple tree, under which I was lying. He was a beautiful, long-striped creature, and he came bounding along on the stone wall, leaped to the ground, and started for the maple tree, when all of a sudden he spied me. He turned, and scampered quickly back to the stone wall. 1 lay perfectly still; and sitting on his haunches he looked at me attentively ; at last, as I did not move, he scamp- ered along for about a yard, and then sto pped and looked at me again. Finally, assured in his little mind that I was asleep, he came down off the wall, and scampering way around me he ascended the tree like a flash of light- ning. When he gained the first branch, which was directly over my head, he raised himself on his haunches and cocking his head saucily on one side began to chatter at me as if to say, “Wake up, you lazy thing; if you had been awake a minute ago you might have been able to catch me, but now you can’t, no matter how hard you try.” EmIty Parsons, 717. 80 EVERYTHING STANDS STILL. Professor Von Schweiberg bent over his work in the great laboratory, while he storm raged without. About him numerous assistants moved noisily to and ro, or sat at their desks. An assistant near by was heating a mass of different minerals, which gave off an odd-smelling gas. Suddenly with a loud crash, a large sized glass jar fell to the floor. An assistant had knocked it from its shelf. This jar contained a pale blue powder, that instantly mingled with the gas, which was being given off by the heating. The Professor started to turn to see what had happened, but, to his aston ishment, he found that he could not move. By means of a glass directly in front of him, he could see the men, apparently paralyzed. All motion seemed to have been stopped by the mingling of the gas and the powder, except those move- ments necessary to life. The clock on the wall had ceased ticking, and even the flame of the burner before him had stopped flickering. Once more he tried to move, but without success. fter an hour of this, the Professor, by means of the reflection in the glass, saw that the appearance of the atmosphere outside had changed. It seemed more hazy than it had been an hour before. All at once, to his surprise, Von Schweiberg saw a large mass of steaming matter fall near the building. At the same instant, with a crash, the roof of the laboratory was broken through at one place by a large rough object that looked like the one outside, except that it was smaller. This missed all the men in the room, and sank several feet into the earth below. This body, that turned out to be a section of a meteor which had fallen during the storm, gave off some fumes which mingled with the other mys- terious mixture and neutralized the latter, and, to the relief of those in the room, they found that they could move, and that the other objects had resumed their motions. 81 Immediately, by means of an apparatus, a quantity of the meteoric gas was caught and stored by the scientist. “Now,” thought the Professor, “if I can only re ch Berlin and make a report before one of my assistants does, my fame and fortune are certainly made.” After packing a quantity of the powder, the substance which gave off the important gas, and some of the meteoric gas in separate receptacles, being careful not to mix them, he glanced at his watch and saw that he had two hours in which to catch the steamer for Berlin. Catching up his samples, he went home and packed a small traveling bag. He then had sixty minutes left. He refreshed himself with a light lunch and made his way to the dock, where he found, to his dismay, that he had forgotten about his watch stopping for an hour, and he had consequently missed the steamer by just sixty minutes. There was only one thing left to do, and there was one chance in a thousand that it might work; but at all events it was worth trying. He could not catch the steamer with a launch, as the boat had such a big start, and the water was very rough. Hurrying over to the navy yards, he persuaded the officer to let him try an experiment. The Professor took a projectile of the largest gun, and hollowed it, leaving a wall in the center, so that it formed two separate compartments. One of these he filled with powder, and the other with the gas. He loaded the gun with the projectile and trained it on the horizon where the ship had disappeared from view. Then with a loud report the gun was fired, and the missile sped toward the unseen steamer. An important fact was that the projectile was supposed to break when it struck anything solid. Von Schweiberg hastened to the docks, and after a time found an owner of a launch who was willing to take him the required distance. They set out, and although the sea was choppy, they at last came within sight of the steamer, which was lying motionless. The one chance had worked. ‘he launch stopped within a safe distance of the steamer and by means of a small mortar, a jar containing the meteoric gas was made to land on the deck. When it hit, it set the gas free. Immediately people began to appear at the rail of the ship. ‘The steamer was hailed and the Professor was taken aboard. Upon arriving at Berlin, Von Schweiberg told of his discovery and illustrated it. He at once sprang into fame, and made large sums of money, for the prepara- tion is now used in war, in the same way in which the now noted Professor Von Schweiberg used it to catch a ship. Bruce Kirkpatrick, 716. THE APE-MAN. Occasionally a white man strayed into the dark untamed forests of Amicon River, and became the food matter for certain ape-men, that lurk along the trails of tamer animals of the jungle. One day, a sheepherder of Argentina strayed into this land. As he was sitting upon the bank of a little stream, the branches above his head parted and a grizzled face with a demon’s glare and a devil’s frown upon it, popped through the foliage and a pair of funny green eyes looked hatred into his soul. He sat in the same position without motion, and the fiendish head drew closer; the broad hairy shoulders of the ape-man appeared. Slowly he moved toward the swaying man. Slowly his eyes followed the terrified motions of the horrified man; closer, closer, the demon’s eyes seemed to flash fire. Suddenly the brute sprang for his prey, and the doomed man’s soul went out in a blood- curdling scream that died in his throat (like he died in the land of the ancient man). Slowly through the silent palm trees, the equatorial sun sends thousands of golden arrows across the dew-drenched ferns, and slowly a beam finds a pool of blood, where yesterday a living man breathed the air of life. But the brutish fiend still lives and breathes his share of air. Tuomas Sanson, 716. DI SWEET MORNING GLORY! The flower that blooms in the daytime And closes its eyes thru the night Still gives us its sweetness of perfume, Though hid from our actual sight. NIGHT BLOOMING CEREUS! The flower that’s closed in the morning And gives its bloom in the night With delicate whiteness of beauty Gives promise of love and light. FLORENCE Erwin, ‘16. Dea NIAGARA FALLS BY MOONLIGHT. As the darkness became more and more impenetrable, the moon slowly rose over the tops of the trees, and, at length, threw down her beams upon the falling mass far beneath her. The noises of the busy day had long since been hushed, and now the moon kept her silent and holy vigil alone. ‘The waters themselves seemed to be affected by a spiritual presence, for, as the molten mass of silver threw itself over the cliff, the distant roar, echoing and re-echoing throughout the abyss. below, had an almost supernatural effect upon the human senses. The mists from the foot of the falls appeared to be lifted gently, as by an unseen hand, only to vanish slowly into thin air. ‘The river beneath, glittering in silvery white- hess, seemed to stretch out a protecting arm to the little, turbulent pools, around about, and to carry them along with her, as she moved calmly on in her quiet way. The entire scene, both in its might and in its tranquility, reflected the image of its Creator. GENEVIEVE OCHELTRER, 715.

That elaborate banquet, when the class of 1913 were our guests of honor for one evening,—shall we ever forget it? Can it ever be equalled? What a trans- formation was wrought in the High School building! Who would recognize the reception hall, artistically decorated with greenery and class colors, in which the guests were welcomed? Who would associate ideas of studiousness and learning with the glowing auditorium and its many brilliant lights playing upon the decorations of purple and gold? The large assemblage of guests, both faculty and students, seated at tables arranged in the form of a thirteen, enjoyed the elaborate seven-course banquet served in admirable style by deft negro waiters. he orchestra in one corner of the room, half hidden in its bower of greenery, produced strains of charming melodies to the accompaniment of tinkling glass and silver. The delightful program, following the toasts, closed an evening’s entertainment, given in faultless style, and created a spirit of harmony and friend- liness that will long linger in the minds of those present that evening. Hannaw Baker, 714. THE HIGH SCHOOL RALLY. The day before the rally, the boys scoured the surrounding country for material, and erected two big pyramids on the campus. Unlike the ancient Egyptian pyramids, these were not made of the stone that was to last through ages, but consisted of mere railroad ties, boxes, excelsior, and of anything else, combustible. At seven o'clock in the evening, our Student Body President applied a match to the structures, and then the cheering, the yelling, and the general commotion began. Singing school songs at the top of their voices, both the boys and the girls serpentined around and around the blazing fires, and in and out among the spectators. ‘Then, with a pile of railroad ties for a rostrum, the speeches began. There were speeches by members of the faculty, by the different boys on the squad, by the President, and by members of the alumni. Each speaker was ushered onto the improvised rostrum with yells and cheers, and as nearly every speech ended with “Here's to victory for S. P. H. S.,” or other rousing words conveying the same idea, the speakers ascended the temporary platform amid louder cheers. As school spirit had not yet attained the highest possible degree, more battle cries and victory songs were indulged in, until finally, unable to speak above a whisper, we all joined in a gigantic serpentine which led into the building and to the “eats,” then out again to the bonfire. The apples, wiennie sandwiches, and popcorn seemed to soothe our tired throats, and we again sang and yelled until only the glowing embers of the once flaming pyramids were left. Then we went home with the feeling that nothing but victory could come to us on the morrow. Viotet Lacy, ‘14. HALLOWE’EN MASQUERADE PARTY. On Hallowe’en, the Seniors and Sophomores entertained the Juniors and Freshmen at a most enjoyable masquerade party. This party was given in the school building, the auditorium being the scene of most of the festivities of the evening. For a time, the chief occupation of every one present was to discover who impersonated this clown, that colonial maid, this cowboy, or that charming little Dutch girl. ‘Then came the grand march, and following it, the unmasking, which satisfied all the curiosity the masks and unusual costumes had awakened. In the rear of the room, was a maze of pepper boughs, delightfully arranged, with a fortune teller’s hut at its farthest extremity. Thither every one hastened during the fore part of the evening, in order that he might learn what the Fates had in store for him. An adaptation from the witches’ scene in Macbeth was presented by severa! of the hosts and hostesses. The three witches were Charlotte Johnson, Mar- suerite Merryman and Marymae Cattern, but so completely did they impersonate the old hags they represented that few recognized them. During the scene, the Ghost of New Ideas entered in the person of Harrison Thomson, and his weird utterances were long remembered by every listener. A great deal of amusement was created by a trial scene, in which Clarendon Foster, weeping like a child, pleaded the cause of Roy Pearson, who, in answer to a charge of stealing a chicken, declared that he had to do it to support his two naughty little children, June and Newton. After the conclusion of the program, every one as his time came, repaired to the Domestic, Science rooms, where dainty refreshments were served, completing an evening already full of genuine sport and enjoyment. AGNEs LEEK, ‘14. Dsta THE FACULTY ENTERTAINMENT. On the evening of October 24, 1913, the Faculty assembled in the Oral English Auditorium, where they were entertained by the Girls’ and Boys’ Glee Clubs: and by the Mandolin Quartette. The entertainment consisted chiefly of the “stunts” which each organization was to give at the “Vod-Vil,” then only a few weeks away. The Girls’ Glee Club gave a little operetta entitled “Market Day,” which consisted of solos, duets and choruses, depicting the joy of country lads and lassies on the way to market. It was well given, and every one seemed to enjoy it very much. The Boys’ Glee Club gave two numbers, and acquitted themselves very creditably for their first endeavor. The Mandolin Quartette followed with several spirited numbers. Refreshments were served in the domestic science rooms, which were prettily decorated with black cats and pumpkins in respect to the time-honored Hallowe'en season. AuLMEDA Hitt, ’15. THE FOOTBALL BANQUET. One of the most delightful affairs held during the year was that of the Foot- ball Banquet, given by the Senior and Junior girls to the football squad. The invitations were issued for December 13, 1913. Everybody was well received by the reception committee, who met the guests and escorted them to the gymnasium, which was very appropriately decorated. ‘The tables were ar- ranged so as to form the letter “I.” Pennants were hung over the walls and from the center of the ceiling was suspended a football. At the foot of the “F” was a dummy dressed as a football player, showing, in truth, that the season was now a thing of the past, so limp and lifeless did he sit on his pedestal. The guests found their places without any difficulty, for at each plate was a place-card, in the shape of a football. One table was occupied by the faculty, who enjoyed the banquet as much as the squad. Words cannot express how good the feed was, but this menu may give you some vague idea :— Tomato Bisque Breadsticks E’scalloped Oysters Browned Sweet Potatoes Baked Apples Rolls Janana Salad Nabiscoes Pumpkin Pie a la Whipped Cream Coffee Mints Mr. Bush acted as toast-master and showed marked ability in his appropriate introduction of each speaker. ‘The speakers and subjects of the evening were: Mr. Upjohn... eee coun Co-operation as Exemplified by Football” Mr. White (Coach) see “Our Team” Bernard Cravens (Capt. )........... ; geese “Our Coach” Genevieve wOchelttcem a= Pere Se ei OU eenoest lenwavkal 1; (CAISS sa: e Heater: ..

SENIOR “HIGH JINKS.” “Did you notice how wise the Seniors looked yesterday?” mused a perplexed little Freshman. “Thatis easy,’ came the boastful reply from one of his upper classmen, a Sophomore, “I was passing the back of the school last night, when I saw bright lights shining from the old gym. windows. ‘The temptation was too much, so I sneaked up and peeked through the window where the little pane of glass is out and saw the ‘whole works.’ “All the Seniors were there, and, although they still retained somewhat the dignity of Seniors, they were a happy-looking bunch. After several amusing games had been played the Senior Class President called them to order with some difficulty, for the purpose of distributing the pins, which had arrived that after- noon. After each Senior had received his, the last one was presented to Miss Foglesong, by the class, as a token of remembrance and appreciation. “Then came the ‘eats,’ sandwiches, peanuts, apples and home-made candy, passed out on trays to all. It was at this point that our high and mighty Seniors somewhat lost their dignity, for the well-known voice of the dictator was heard at the doorway, ‘All out in fifteen minutes.’ ” Hannan Baker, ’14. a “DITCH DAY.” The first annual (?) celebration of “ditch day” in S. P. H. 5. was held Feb- ruary 23rd, 1914, A.D. On the morning of said day a small company of students, namely,—Mr. Green’s third and fourth periods Chemistry class,—met together for the sole purpose of contriving a means by which word might be sent to all the upper-classmen, telling them to “ditch” the afternoon session. ‘The purpose was successfully carried out, not, however, without the secret becoming known to a few members of the under-classes. At 12:45 P. M. a line of one hundred and twelve students marched from the campus north on Fremont, turning at Mission, and coming to a halt at the corner of Fair Oaks. Here the crowd divided, some going to the Los Angeles theatres ; some to the U. S. C.-Occidental Track Meet; some to the Pasadena theatres, but the majority to the Arroyo Seco. In talking to the ‘‘ditchers” afterward, every- one seemed to have passed a very enjoyable afternoon. However, the real effects of “‘ditch-day’ were not discovered until the next noon, when Mr. Upjohn assigned all the “ditchers” to the eighth period. The result was that for two weeks afterwards none of the “‘ditchers’” were seen carrying books home, the faculty having added the extra study period. With the ending of the term of imprisonment, the desire for “ditching” again had beer entirely exterminated. Jane Mary Tuompson, ’15. SENIOR CLASS PARTY. It will be a long time before the members of the Senior Class of 1914 will forget the jolly, good time they had on the evening of March thirteenth, when Esta Kite and Charlotte Johnson, at the home of the former, entertained them with a Saint Patrick’s party. As soon as the guests arrived, the fun began in the form of games, one of which was a guessing game, giving each one a chance to display his ignorance. Further amusement was provided by Miss Johnson’s foresight for the Annual in requesting every one to write a joke. Even after the refreshments, the good time continued until we thought to leave, not be- cause we wanted to, but only for the sake of politeness. Katuryn Caskey, 714. JUNIOR-SENIOR PICNIC. On the afternoon of Saturday, April fifteenth, a truck and several machines, filled to overflowing with Juniors, Seniors, chaperons and “eats,” left South Pasadena for an evening of fun and enjoyment in the ever-interesting Arroyo Seco. The crowd that descended into the cafion was a jolly one and no time was lost in taking advantage of the pleasure offered by the cabins, streams and trail. A picnic supper was eaten around the merriest of camp fires and then followed a marshmallow roast and lively Virginia reel to the music of Ukuleles. When the chaperons began to grow sleepy the fire was put out, searchlights lit and the party started back to the top of the cafion, where a starlight Ukulele concert was listened to while waiting for the trucks to arrive that carried the weary picnickers back home. Rosarigé Davis, ‘15. Eres Seveake 40h Ens MUSIC. Music has always been an important factor in the school because of its spirit- ual influence and its great inspiration to the students. The music this year has been planned to suit the various tastes of the students so that a gradual develop- ment of the appreciation for good music may be secured. The various musical organizations have been continued and several new ones have been formed under the direction of Mrs. Bartlett. ‘The most noteworthy of these is the Boys’ Glee Club, which has been very successful. Out of this group a Boys’ Quartette has been formed which has done splendid work. The Girls’ Glee Club is now thoroughly organized. The Orchestra has struggled through many difficulties, but shows great improvement. The Mandolin Club and the Ukulele Quartette, although not under the direction of Mrs. Bartlett, are impor- tant musical organizations and have afforded the school much pleasure in Student Body programs. CSA The Musical Festival. As a fitting culmination to the year’s work in the musical department, a musical festival was held in South Pasadena. It was the first of the kind ever given in Southern California. The schools participating were Alhambra High School, Citrus Union High School (Azusa), Covina Union High School, Glen- dale Union High School and South Pasadena High School. There were over two hundred visiting students and it was considered by all a great success. hese schools are all about the same size. It is now to be an annual event. The Orchestra from Citrus Union High School was excellent, while Glendale presented an especially good Girls’ Glee Club. The trio of the xylophone, violin and piano from Alhambra was also especially noteworthy. South Pasadena entered an Orchestra, Boys’ Glee Club, Girls’ Glee Club and a Boys’ Quartette ; Alhambra had an Orchestra, Trio, and Girls’ Glee Club ; Citrus Union an Orchestra; Glendale presented an Orchestra, Girls’ Glee Club, and Vio- lin Quartette ; and Covina entered a Girls’ Glee Club and a Band. Esta Leone Krrs, 14. Occidental Glee Club Concert. On the evening of May 1, the Occidental Glee Club gave a concert in the Oral English Auditorium. The program was well rendered and was made up of much humor. ‘Iwo or three well-known songs were given as well as a reading from Kipling. Among those numbers most appreciated were Straus’ “Greetings to Spring,” xylophone solos by the Young brothers, and a mixed quartet, humor- ous in number. ‘The quartet was formed by two jesters, dressed manlike on one side and womanlike on the other. The finale was the Oxy Hymn, “Occidental Fair.” The audience was thoroughly appreciative and we are looking forward to another possible evening by the Occidental Glee Club next year. Laura E. Matcotmson, ’16. Stanford Band. One of the most entertaining and beneficial concerts of the year was given by the Stanford Band on March the tw enty-ninth. The entertainment opened with the well-known strains of ‘“T'he Thunderer’ ’ by its equally well-known author, Sousa. The whole program was well played, but “Atlantis, the Lost Continent,” deserved special mention. In this, the cornetist, in his solo part showed great ability. During the intermission several numbers, consisting of readings and songs, were given, which proved very entertaining, besides breaking the monotony. A very good imitation of Harry Lauder was given by one of the members. Occasional remarks, made by the audience in passing out, proved that the Stanford Band would be welcomed another year. ZETTA TucKER, 717. The Cecilian Concert. The Cecilian Club, which made its first appearance in concert last vear, gave another very enjoyable entertainment on the evening of November the twenty- shame The program was delightfully arranged and consisted not only of in- strumental and vocal solos, but also of readings and fancy dancing. Instrumental solos were rendered by Misses Marjorie Gillies, Margaret Reynolds, and Helena Johnson, and a duet by Violet Lacy and Frances Jacobs. Kista Kite and Lenore Hamm gave vocal solos, and Eugenie Axtman and Corin Dodson entertained with some delightful readings.

A morning in The Farce and Spectacular Drama. Unlike the usual productions heretofore given at our High School, the Farce and Spectacular Drama, presented the evening of March 21, by seventy-five girls of the various classes, was one of the most successful entertainments ever attempt- ed by the High School students. Both were given under the supervision of Mrs. sartlett and Miss MacKintosh, and their capability, as directors, was clearly shown by the results. Those who favored fun were given a treat in “The Champion of Her Sex,” in which Lois Shorten and Hilda Wyche, who, as friends of Florence Duplex (Eilen Pealer), ably showed the latter’s mother the folly of her position, as suffragette leader, and created much merriment by doing so. The part of Mrs. Juplex was well taken by Almeda Hill, and the remaining characters—the step- laughter, the old, rheumatic grandmother, and the two Irish maids—also gave heir parts with much credit. In the Spectacular Drama, “The Queen of Beauty,” sixty-five girls were lressed in fitting costumes and grouped to represent Spirits of the Beautiful— Dawn, Day, Twilight, Night, Forest, Sea and Flowers. Having been announced v the heralds, they gave characteristic dances before the Queen, which role was admirably played by.Grace Lawyer. At the end of the play, the Queen resigned her throne to the Spirit of Universal Love, successfully acted by Josephine Walker. o whom the spirits brought gifts to make her reign happy and prosperous. The beautiful costuming, stage decorations, and arrangements of colored ights, especially the use of tiny flash-lights by the black-gowned girls in “Night,” yroduced an effect that will long be remembered by those who saw the Spectacu- ar Drama. EpitH WALKER, 717. SoS The ‘“Vod-Vil.” By eight o’clock, on the evening of November 14, 1913, the auditorium of the High School was filled with expectant people, who became even more interested when the orchestra, conducted by Mrs. Bartlett, began to play a number of modern popular melodies. Then a comedienne, as a real marionette, sang an amusing song, “I’ve Got a Pain in My Sawdust.” Presently the parting of the curtains brought to view the first scene of what proved to be a pretty, and yet hilarious, comedy. It was entitled, “All a Mistake,” and the applause that fol- lowed each scene proved its hearty acceptance by the audience. Several selec- tions, given by the Boys’ Glee Club, were followed by “The Revels of the Maidens,” who, in soft white Grecian costumes, danced gracefully to music, while pretty colored lights played over them. ‘These eighteen girls were representatives of the physical culture classes of the school, and, through their many rhythmical exercises, portrayed the good work being done in that branch of our school’s activities. During the intermission, both the Orchestra and the String Quartette played several popular selections, which were applauded with interest. As the curtains parted on the next number, which the program announced to be a three-act skit, entitled “Stage Struck,’ one could imagine a little gasp of surprise on the part of the audience when it saw Newton Cattern soulfully declaiming lines from Shakespeare, and trying to persuade his father to let him continue in that glorious, dramatic art. So started the play, while the audience, interested and amused, watched its course to the finish. Several sweet and familiar melodies were then played and sung by four girls of the Ukulele Club, as they sat around a repre- sentative camp-fire. ‘Then the Boys’ Quartette sang a dream selection, in which the persons in the dream were portrayed through the parted curtains. The last number on the program was pretty and full of action. It was a one-act operetta, called “Market Day.” ‘The cast consisted of representatives from both of the Glee Clubs. Several very good voices were heard in the various parts. The financial results of the entertainment were most gratifying, the profits amounting to $132.75. ‘This money was used to furnish the girls’ lunch room, to purchase plants for the Oral English Auditorium, to buy a clarinet for the orchestra, and several other desired articles. Thus the “Vod-Vil” proved success- ful, both from the financial and entertaining standpoints. Much praise is due Mrs. Bartlett and Miss MacKintosh for their untiring zeal in the training of the participants in the varied program. Mibprep Starr, 15. The Shakespearean Club. The Shakespearean Club is an organization which has been heard of for the first time at the High School this year. Its membership is composed of only those students who wish particularly to study the plays of Shakespeare, both from a literary and from a dramatic point of view, further than is possible in the regular school work. On organizing the club Hugh Waddell was elected presi- dent; Almeda Hill, vice-president; Rosalie Davis, secretary; and Bruce Spencer, treasurer. Mr. Waddell resigned on leaving school, and Robert Honner was elected in his place. A considerable amount of interest has been aroused, and the weekly meet- ings have been made interesting by some one or two scenes from a selected play, being produced by members of the club. As a help to all, comments and criticisms are asked for from everyone. It is hoped that this organization will in the future do much for promoting dramatic talent and literary ability in high school life. IRENE Leek, ’14. MAS SSW Xk 'e WILLE Mb Md TZ MK AA DEBATING. Debating and public speaking activities have been very successful this year. Much of the school’s talent was lost by graduation, and the debators have not had the services of a debating coach or the advantages of the regular debating classes, but in spite of these handicaps the school took fourth place in the South- ern California Debating League, heading the list of small schools. Ropert Honner, ‘14. De The San Pedro Debate The first debate of the year was held at San Pedro and a crowd of about twenty-five students made the trip to support the team. We more than held our own against San Pedro in yelling and in the singing of school songs, and when we had left, the whole school was thoroughly awake to the fact that we were from South Pasadena. In the absence of our regular yell-leaders, the graceful (?) efforts of the substitutes furnished the audience with considerable preliminary amusement. Messrs. Pinero and Stone of San Pedro supported the affirmative, and Miss Genevieve Ocheltree and Mr. Hugh Waddell the negative of the question, “Re- solved:—That the United States should secure at once the construction and operation of a Pan American Railway.” ‘The negative advanced very forceful and telling arguments, and when the speakers had concluded we were certain that our team had won. ‘he judges did not disappoint us, for the decision re- turned was San Pedro—154, and South Pasadena—200. Ropert Honner, ‘14. The Los Angeles Debate. The second league debate of the year, but the first in our own High School Auditorium, was held January 23, 1914. Mr. Douglas and Mr. Field of Los Angeles upheld the affirmative, and Mr. Edward Stuart and Mr. Harrison Thomson of South Pasadena supported the negative of the question, “Resolved :—That an impartial tribunal at The Hague should be given the authority to settle all international disputes, together with sufficient police power to enforce its decrees.” Our student body turned out en masse and Los Angeles also had a good representation of supporters. The halls rang with the yells and songs of the two schools. Our students were ably supported by the orchestra in the singing of our school songs. DEBATORS AND ORATORS. EDWARD STUART HUGH WADDELL GENEVIEVE OCHELTREE HARRISON THOMSON ROBERT HONNER Although the decision returned was in favor of the affirmative, we felt that our debators showed remarkable oratorical and debating ability and had certainly left nothing undone toward winning the debate. As victories are only won through defeat, we cheerfully accepted the decision, resolving to go down to defeat only with our colors flying. Henry St. Prerre, 16. eo The Hollywood Debate. Friday evening, March 27, an unusually large delegation from Hollywood Union High School assembled in our auditorium to debate with our School on the question: ‘Resolved :—That any United States Congressional district should have the option of electing citizens non-resident in the district to Congress.” Messrs. Herron and Walker, a team that has won many victories for Hollywood, upheld the negative side of the question, while our own debaters, Genevieve Ocheltree and Robert Honner, had the affirmative. The debate was carried on in a most courteous and respectful manner, and certainly no feeling other than one of sportsmanlike rivalry and school loyalty entered into the spirit of either side. Each member of our team delivered arguments so interesting, and with such apparent self-possession and confidence, that defeat seemed far away from the “Orange and Black.” Consequently the decision of the judges against the affirm- ative by a score of 195% to 180, came as a distinct surprise to all present. But our disappointment did not, in any way, offset the pride we felt for the two who so commendably upheld the honor of 5. P. H. Sh Rosanit Davis, 715.

By this I would not have you understand that we beat all our opponents, or that we carried off all the championships. We merely did our very best, and more cannot be expected. We more than broke even with all the other schools of our size, and many larger schools still bear the marks of the ‘“Tiger’s” claws. At this late day we can see plainly how and where we might have done better, but we have no excuses to offer for anything our boys have done on the gridiron, track or diamond, this year. Last fall we developed several “cinder path speed demons.” In a great measure this was due to the fact that the boys trained conscientiously. Several “dusky Dobbins” developed into stars of the first magnitude. Don Wheaton ’17, threw dignity to the winds and sped around the mile and the 880 with the “pep” of a veteran. ‘To the surprise of many, little “Newt” Cattern developed into a first-class 440 man. ‘‘Newt” also ran on the relay team. Our senior veterans, ‘Tuttle, Garwood, Lingle, and little “Hobo” Foster did not disappoint us. A great improvement was made in the football team. The team was stronger and faster than ever before. Each boy played with his whole heart, not each man for himself, but for the team. ‘The team work was developed by Coach White to a remarkable degree. ‘The games which we lost were all to larger schools, as may be seen from the tabulated scores. The basketball team was badly handicapped by the loss of Cope, Brown, Stockman and Boekenoogen. Wyche was the prop and mainstay of the recruits. The new boys did exceedingly well for men who had no experience. As bright as the brightest shine our diamond stars. Nearly half of the team are recruits this year. ‘Ihe outfield and one pitcher, Wood, never played High School ball before. ‘he infield is composed of all veterans except Perine. With a little practice they will develop into a lightning fast infield. The team average at the bat is well over .300. ‘The boys are now showing a very good brand of head work and all are out to play for the team. May they all be attended by the brightest success.

Weight 140 lbs. “Hag” showed himself to be a sure tackler and a hard, nervy line-bucker, being able to pick a hole in almost any place. His accurate goal kick- ing was a great help to the team. Football. That the American football game, the real “up-an’-go-at-’em-hard” game which requires such nerve and speed and more truly represents the ideal High School and College sport, can be handled by South Pasadena High School, was demonstrated last fall. The football field presents a wonder ful opportunity to exercise all phases of athletic skill. In no game is there better opportunity to use Toe both in charging in the line and in getting away fast in the backfield. It is an opportunity to use strength and weight ; to become skillful in throwing and handling the for- ward pass; and most important of all, to use a quick wit and judgment in select- ing the best opening and the best moment to take advantage of it. All that South Pasadena needed was a little experience—since year before last was the first time for all the men—to demonstrate that we legally belong in the win-column a good part of the time. After one rousing football rally by a loyal and enthusiastic student body, faculty and alumni, that would surely put scrap and fight into anyone, our boys locked horns next dé ry with Venice High School for the opening game and came off victors—19-0. The following Saturday we met Inglewood High School, whose team was just beginning the game, the second team playing the first half and the first team playing the second half. ‘The game proved to be a contest between South Pasa- dena boys only as to which could score the most touchdowns. However, so much prosperity seemed to be detrimental and an overgrowth of confidence along with a tiresome car ride worked our undoing at Chaffee. We also lost the two following games to heavier teams from Santa Monica and Pasadena. Beginning with the latter game we showed improvement in every contest to the end of the season. Many times was Pasadena’s goal in danger, due to the fine work of our backfield, though against a much heavier and more experienced team. Our next game was with Coronado on our home fiel Id, and was an easy victory for South Pasadena, 47—0. Los Angeles College and Occidental College were played at practice games, winning from the former and losing to the latter. Venice even had the audacity to try to defeat us again on their home grounds and the score ran very close until a last quarter rally defeated them, 10— . Our best game of the year was the last, which was played with Whittier on Thanksgiving Day at our home grounds. Up to that date W hittier was tied with Chaffee for the Championship and they were expecting some “easy sailing,” to say the least. The game was featured by the more aggressive ay of our light team—especially the back field—against their “beef” and the fake forward pass by Allen to Cass for our field score and at times the strong defense by the line, a fine ending for the season. We are sorry to lose so many men by graduation, which makes our line only a shadow of its former self, but with a number of good second team men, a husky Freshman class and our star backfield who made the “all southern seconds” take notice—just watch our “smoke” in 1914. Coacuw H. FE. WHITE. Baseball. Our aspiration this year was to win the Saeed as it had not been done by any previous team. Our hopes were fully rewarded, but after many hard fought battles, in which a fine brand of baseball was shown. ‘This record has never been equalled by any previous athletic team, only being approached by last year’s base- ball team, which tied for second place. The team, as a whole, didn’t bat as h: ag or consistently as it did last year, but a different brand of baseball was plaved The team played a sacrific ing game, which was shown by the large amount of runs with so few hits. “Benny” Cravens did fine pitching, being helped in this respect by “Smokey Joe” Wood. With the reliable “Dutch” W yche behind the plate, the opposing team, was lucky to get away with more than a couple of hits. Not many stole a base on “Dutch’s” “death- defying wing,” as he always had them before they ; got started. The success of the team is due to Mr. White’s effective and untiring work as coach, and to the combined efforts of each player. Every fellow on the team deserves special mention for his splendid work, but lack of space prevents this due consideration. Wyche, Pearson and Gutman will graduate this year, but this makes no material difference in next year’s team, as there is a great deal of good material on hand. W e only hope we can do as well next year and “‘cop’ ’ the pennant for Px, del, (Sh, Elena, GLENN ALLEN, 715. Basketball. The basketball team this year, while not playing up to the former records, has done very well. Captain Wyche was the only member of this year’s team that played last year; the rest of the men not havi ing had any experience in this line of sport. ‘The team, as an average, was one of the lightest teams in the league. The season started out well, when S. P. H. S. played Venice and won by a large score. ‘The next two games with Monrovia and Santa Monica were lost. Ee ene game of the season with Alhambra was the closest game played, : H. 5. being the victors by three points. This victory was due to Wyche, oe play a such a good game at center, that three men had to be play = against him at different times. The next game with Glendale was won, S. P. H.

Tennis. ‘ennis must be numbered among the successful sports of the year 1913-1914. ‘he team has been a well rounded one, teamwork winning more victories than the individual ability of any one player. Three of the members, Roe, Stannard and Ritchie were veterans of last year’s team, and their experience proved very valuable. ‘Theo Perine was the other member of the team at the beginning of the tennis season, but dropped it for baseball: nevertheless his place was ably filled by “Jeff” Wrightsman, who fortunately enrolled at that time. A large hole will be leit in next year’s team by the absence of Frank Roe and Ronald Stan- nard, who graduate this year. The school was represented at the Ojai Valley Tournament by Wrightsman and Ritchie, but they were unable to bring home the cup. South Pasadena will be represented at the Los Angeles Y. M. C. A. Tournament by Helen MacKay, Alice Shorten, Stannard and Ritchie, who hope to win the pennant.

RITcHIE, ” TENNIS TEAM 137 Track. In track, more than in any other line of sport, a person’s individual ability and training are shown. ‘This year we had quite a few men who devoted their entire time to track and who trained consistently. As a result we had one of the most successful teams that this High School has ever turned out. In the annual inter-class meet there was a great deal of new material dis- covered. Wheaton proved that he was our coming distance man. Bischoff did good work in the broad and high jumps, while Cattern surpr ised everyone by his work in the quarter. ‘The Pasadena meet was decidedly a farce, since we were competing with a school that was entirely out of our class. However, some of the fellows showed up well. Foster ran Newby a close race in the 220, and Thomson won the high jump. If Stuart had not kicked over his hurdie and “spilled” he would have undoubtedly won that event. We sent two relay teams to the Occidental Relay Carnival and managed to take third place in the half-mile relay. In the meet with Glendale the fellows showed up well and they managed to send Glendale home with the small side of the score. The final result depended on the relay, and they discovered that we had four very speedy boys on our team, Foster running a very spectacular lap. ‘The team made five points at San Fer- nando :—Second in the 220, third in the low hurdles, and third in the relay. The relay team would no doubt have won first place had it not been for an unpleasant accident. At the touch-off, Cravens accidentally spiked Cline in the ankle. The wound was a bad one, but “Shorty” showed us that nerve was his strong point, by running his lap, thus enabling us to take third place. In the county meet we entered six men, but were unable to win any places. Stuart placed for the finals in the low hurdles, but lost out in that race by a small margin. Foster placed for the finals in the high hurdles, but couldn’t show suffi- cient “class” to win a medal. He also ran a good race in the 440, but couldn't place better than fourth. The week after the County meet we closed the season with a triangular meet with Whittier and Alhambra, in which we showed that we were the best of the three. In this meet Lingle ran a sensational half mile. Wheaton did good work in the half mile and mile, winning second place in both events. Cattern, Cline and Garwood showed up well, but the star of the meet was Foster of South Pasadena. He won the high hurdles; ran Jones of Whit- tier a close race in the 220, and ran an exceptionally good lap in the relay. In this meet as in the Glendale meet the result depended on the relay, and our team sasily outdistanced both other schools. The track team is greatly indebted to Mr. Green, who coached the team this year, and whose untiring efforts gave us one of the most successful years th at any South Pasadena track team has ever experienced. 31LLIE PowE Lt, 715.

It was composed of four sets of exercises, grace culture and folk dances. These proved very popular and were extensively used in different entertainments. A pretty number was given by the Girls’ Gym- nasium Classes in the ‘ Vod-Vil” presented by the High School. The Spectacu- lar, which was given March 28, consisted mainly of the Girls’ Grace Culture Work, tho’ it was ably assisted by the Music Department. ‘here are about one hundred girls taking Gymnasium this year and all seem to enjoy it. It was through the efforts of Miss Elizabeth MacKintosh that the work has been made so pleasant for them. She has taken an unusual interest in her gymnasium classes and has devoted much of her time to them. In fact, the work done this year has been very satisfactory to all concerned, and the prospects are very good for the coming year. HELEN Fow cer, ‘15. SHSSV1O0 WAD .STaID FARRELL. BESSIE 08 GILLIES.

Home-Made Candy, or The Ruined Digestion. it. A simple young fellow, with some money so handy, Decided one day that he’d buy him some candy ; So out he did ramble in the hall of his school, Where the candy awaited this simple young fool. Ie Not contented with spending a quarter or less, And impressing the girls with his great liberalness, He must tickle his palate with that terrible mess, And bring upon himself much pain and distress. III. Next day the symptoms of lock-jaw set in, And he was as sick as he ever had been; A doctor was called,—and he came prompt enough, But the poor suffering boob had about given up. IV. Now the doctor soon saw that ‘twas not the lock-jaw, But only some candy that had stuck in his craw; So he punched and he cut with his pinchers and knife, To remove the obstruction, and save that young life. V. A strong anaesthetic kept the victim quite still, “Till success crowned the efforts of this good doctor’s skill But after the patient was again on his feet, He could hardly do justice to a good wholesome feed. VI.

Some answers (2?) to the question:—What is the diaphragm, and where situated ? 1. The diaphragm is a spongy material, situated at the lower part of the throat and separates the digestive organs from the larynx. 2. It is situated at the top of the sternum or breast bone and separates the left lung and the right lung from the wind-pipe. 3. It is a movable wall of muscle between the organs of respiration and the organs of indigestion. 4. It is a small box-like structure situated in the larynx just below the breast bone. It separates the breast bone from the lungs. 5. ‘The scientific name for the wind-pipe is “sternum.” (Note: They were not all Freshmen!!) D An Extract from a Composition (?)

Da ” EVERYBODY’S COLUMN. Dear Mr. Editor :— [ am very much distressed over the strange situation of affairs at school recently. I do not get the accustomed laugh which I used to receive, whenever I did something funny. Last year the girls thought I was cute, and consequently I was quite popular; but for the last month or so there has been a radical change. What would you advise me to do to regain my former popularity ? Yours tearfully, Thomas Sanson, Ass’t. Yell Leader. (Editor’s Advice )—Popularity is not a thing to be gained in a day. Try to be natural and cheerful, and although your friends may be few, still they will be steadfast and faithful.

Student Body Desk, April 1, 1914. Editor of the “Copa de Oro” :— Dear Sir:—I am greatly concerned over the present condition of my feet. During my service as Student Body President, my feet have grown to about three times their normal size. I have often heard that sometimes an exalted position will affect the growth of the head, but I have never heard of the feet being so affected. 1 am much alarmed over this unusual condition, and if you can give me any suggestions for reducing them, [ shall appreciate it very much. Yours truly, Lynn ‘Tuttle. STUDENT BODY. Beauty Parlors, From 6 to 8 A. M. My Dear Mr. Editor :— Could you recommend for me a first-class masseuse? I have been using “Pompeiian Massage Cream” until it has brought two small freckles on either side of my nose and I am greatly perturbed. If | use court plaster it will make me appear too conspicuous. Also what powder do you deem best for a delicate complexion ? Most sincerely yours, Pinky Perry. (Editor’s Reply)—The only masseuse I know is “Jim”; and as to the pow- der, gun-powder is the best as it is guaranteed to blow the freckles off your nose. Dear Editor-in-Chief :— Since I have been in the High School, I have often been humiliated by my bad habit of flirting. It seems almost an utter impossibility for me to contro! my smiles when I meet a young man. What can I do to cure myself of this habit ? Humbly yours, Orilla Daggett. (Editor’s Advice)—The cure I recommend is as bad as the disease, but it never fails. ‘Take poison. Dear Mel:—I am terribly anxious about my Oral English. Last year I made such rapid strides that Mr. Upjohn made a public example of me before the Student Body. This year I have accomplished nothing. We have just had a lesson on active advance and active retire and I am enclosing a sketch which expresses my sentiments better than any words. Yours in admiration, Glenn Allen. Deal, EnelisH. Aclwe Anvance. Aclive Re Ti neo. Mr. Editor :— | am taking Elementary Latin and have been trying very hard to make a passing grade in it. I study an hour every night, but 1 do not seem to be making marked progress. I don’t know the cause of my failure, unless it is Edward Filley’s too constant smile in my direction. Will I have to give up the Latin, or Edward? I would prefer to sacrifice the former. Please advise me. One in need, Irene Salisbury. (Editor’s Counsel)—By all means give up the Latin as that is something that can be gotten later, and a smile is too flitting to let pass unheeded. Robert Honner (trying to grow a mustache)—‘Say, Tillie, would you kiss a guy with a mustache?” Tillie—“‘No.” M. Tritt—‘ That’s the reason Foster shaved his off.” So First Year Latin.

We cordially invite all who want THE BEST in the line of business preparation to enroll with us for a crisp and practical course of study. @ It is wise to select a school of force, character and prestige—one whose only magnet is MERIT; whose only quirk is efficient work; whose 30 years should allay all fears. Enrollment Now Active @ These are busy days at our school. Better get in line—conditions are fine. You are entitled to the BEST—30 years are a TEST. The sooner you ENROLL the sooner you will get on the PAYROLL. @ It pays young people to pay for practical pabulum. Pennyworth pedagogics are poorhouse promoters. @ Free foibles are usually fakes; bonus offers suggest bait and buntline. Bargain offers in education are burnt offerings, and special offers suggest the specious and sparse. Discretion selects a school having no sign of speciousness or superficiality. @ It is our sole aim to render efficient service, to the end that our students may go out into the world of affairs to MAKE GOOD. Thousands of our graduates ARE making good.
