—— Od ° e o . a ° ry Yoeceeast ‘ . er eetees ereefecvers Published by the Students of South Pasadena High School South Pasadena, California 1919 FOREWORD When we have left this school and gone to take an active part in the great world about us, we want to have some tie which will bind us to our loved high school days, some memorial which will open to us again and again the doors of memory, wherein we may lose ourselves in pleasant thoughts of past joys. This, then, is the chief purpose of this Copa de Oro, and if we have established in this book such a memorial, our greatest aim has been realized. THE EDITORS.

Literary Editor 9 TNtLo THE COPA DE ORO—_A SCHOOL ANNUAL As far as possible the staff has tried to make this annual one that will be long treasured by the members of South Pasadena High School. It has been the object of the Editors to chronicle the interesting incidents and happenings of the year. It is truly a school annual, and we hope it will give the readers as much pleasure and satisfaction as has been ours hin compiling the book. Among those to whom we are very thankful for help are Mrs. Dolland and the commercial department whose typewriters banged unceasingly in helping us to have our Annual ready on time. The art department, as can readily be seen, has been most helpful in making our efforts a success. And now, to you, our readers, we present this book — the 1919 Copa De Oro. “SOLDIERS ALL” All of us have heard many times the sentiment expressed that to live for one’s country is as great, if not a greater service, than to die for it. What living for our country means this war has taught us to realize perhaps more fully than we have ever done before. It has not been alone the man upon the battle field fighting the enemy with his gun and bayonet, who has enabled the democracies of the world to free humanity from the terrible menace of Kaiserism. This war has, in fact, revealed many a soldier as true in the service of his country as these men are, but who does not serve in just the way in which these fighters have done. The service rendered by the Red Cross nurse to her country can not be estimated by any statement of the numbers of precious lives saved by her heroism and noble self sacrifice. The fighting man will never place the estimate of his own work above that of one of these Red Cross nurses, for he knows what it has meant to watch the brave fight made by a nurse to save the life of a soldier boy, wounded so badly as to be unable to hold on with his own hands. There is no hardship or danger too great for these brave women to face in order to serve their country as a soldier should and what sort of soldiers they have proved themselves to be, the world knows today too well to need the added words of another. 10 What the work of the Salvation Army workers has meant to our country and to other countries also is well known. Truer soldiers than these men and women who have faced deat h in the front line trenches will be hard to ‘find; in fact everywhere the fighting man has gone they, too, have gone. The work which these men and women have done has been done with the same spirit of devotion to duty and fearless loyalty to country which the other soldiers of our nation have shown. There are in fact many great organizations which have rendered to our eountry the service which only a band of true soldiers could. It is not only among these organizations heretofore mentioned where sol- diers are found. There are many, many true soldiers who have never seen France, who have never belonged to the army, whose heroism in daily sacrifice rendered quietly has meant more than they themselves will ever know. ‘ Soldiers All,’’? that is a wonderful motto for a people to live up to and the people of our nation have been true to that motto, the most of them, and as a result of this we are today a free people and not bond slaves of Germany. THE SPIRIT OF 1919 The spirit of today is essentially democratic. So true is this that the word demoeraecy has east its spell over the whole world and is enshrined in the hearts of common men everywhere. It is inevitable that this should profound- ly affect the life of the world. Thus it is not strange that changes of far-reach- ing consequence are taking place. The old order changeth, yielding place to new.”’ The war we have just passed through, the greatest in history, a war whose significance must become increasinely evident, has greatly forwarded this movement toward demoeracy. It is manifest in the great crusade of out boys, fifty thousand of whom are lying now in ‘‘Flanders Fields.’’ It is like- wise manifest in the less heroie efforts of those who, not permitted to go over seas, have loyally done their best at home. Under the leadership of her great president America has indeed shown herself a staunch supporter of democratic ideals. In this necessary work our school has played a not unworthy part. The thrill of the world spirit has manifested itself in practical ways. With the help of Miss Moore the girls of the Junior Red Cross accomplished work of which any organization might be justly proud. Also there was hearty co-operation in campaigns covering all branches of war work. Especially good results came from the W. 8S. 8. and Liberty Loan drives. And finally with the eall of the government was the faithful devotion to school work itself with the realiza- tion that it is on the shoulders of the young people of today that the re- sponsibility of tomorrow will rest. Democracy thus embodies unselfishness and requires that the thought of service be extended to all nations. Then with this spirit imbued in the hearts of all we may hope for the final end of war and social unrest. and the coming of a true brotherhood of man. 11 BOLSHEVISM Bolshevism! when we hear that word most of us think immediately of battle, murder and sudden death, and indeed these elements do characterize it almost entirely as we know it today. But Bolshevism may have another meaning not necessarily attended by the aforesaid acts of violence. It may mean a state of existence in which the principles of law and order are not eare- fully observed, and where each person follows his own ideas of government without any responsible central management. Thinking of it in this new light how many of us are really bolshevists! Let us first consider our attitude toward our teachers and our lessons. We sometimes feel that we should be allowed greater freedom in our choice as to how and what we study, and we feel that our teachers are unnecessarily fussy in the number of rules and regulations they inflict upon us. We should realize that if these rules were not made, and if we were not required to live up to them, things would soon become as bad in their way as the troubles in Russia and Germany. Then in our attitude towards the school, are we all truly generous, and desirous of that procedure which will work the most benefit towards the schools? Not always, I fear. Any selfishness, or opposition to rules which make it easier for the majority, is but a form of bolshevism and should be guarded against. For what we start out to be in school, usually determines what we shall be in later life. Thus if America is to be a true de- moeracy in the future as she has tried to be in the past, it is up to us who are in school now, to keep ourselves fit to make her so. Let us all here re- solve to do everything in our power to stamp out this menacing red flag. A FRIEND Few realize that our friends are the best treasures we have in life. Without friends our happiness would indeed be limited, but with them it is boundless. The students of S. P. H. S. have a staunch friend who would do anything in his power to help them. He is self sacrificing, just, and kind. One ean always be assured of a square deal from him. He sits behind the door marked ‘‘Principal’’ and it is with much feeling that the class of 719 pays a tribute to him. ‘““Mr. Kinney is our friend, we appreciate his kind treatment.’’ i | BOARD OF EDUCATION Mrs. E. M. Mumford Mr. G. W. Lawyer Trustee President Mr. H. W. Huntsinger G. C. Bush Clerk Supt. of Schools These people are counted among the best of the friends of South Pasadena High School. We greatly appreciate the many things which they have done for us and we heartily thank them all. 14 WORD FROM THE OFFICE A high school graduating class is seldom privileged to publish in its Annual pages that carry the inspiration and lasting appeal to its members as do the Honor Roll pages in the Copa de Oro of 1919. No painter’s brush, poet’s pen, or orator’s voice can make a more elo- quent appeal for clean, efficient, patriotic men and women than does the page carrying 1 16 service stars of former students of South Pasadena High School —each representing the willing offer of a life, if need be, that right, justice, and truth might prevail. We owe it, not only to the memory of the two brave men who made the supreme sacrifice, but to those who offered their lives and did honorably all that was demanded of them, that this Honor Roll be preserved and treasured through our whole life, inspiring us to unselfish deeds because of what these men have done for us. 15 Burt O.

T have watched with much pleasure and satisfaction the development of its members, many of whom I have known since they were in the primary schools. It is with a mingled feeling of sorrow and pride that I write a few lines for this, the closing chapter in your high school life—pride because of your success, sorrow be- cause of your departure. I am proud of those of your class who joined the colors to help win the War. I say all honor and praise to them. The High School will always be interested in you and your success. Re- member that as Alumni of the South Pasadena High School you still have an vbligation to it. The standard and reputation of any school is maintained by those who have graduated as well as by those in attendance. I know that I can expect great things from you.

She’s the shyest of all the shy lasses. 31 THE CLASS OF 1919 It was moonlight on the desert and the sand dunes gleamed like white ghosts around the little oasis, accidently dropped down in this sandy furnace by some merciful aneel when the world was made. A soft sish-swish of sand was heard ag the camels walked slowly about. In the center of the oasis was a small gathering of Persian people, clad in their queer, beautiful costumes. They seemed to be having a conference of some sort and all their attention was directed toward one man who sat a little apart from the rest in a houdah, which had been removed from a camel’s back. Publecea Ali-Opinion, for it was he, was speaking: ‘“Peace to you, my brothers. We meet for the first time after a period of four years. Let us hear what has been accomplished by our Klas. Isha- paul Ali-Hadden, give us your report.’’ ‘“Ali-Opinion,’’ said Ali-Hadden, rising, ‘‘the Klas has indeed proved itself illustrious. In Spirit we have been proficient, winning a.debate with the Senior Klas when we were Freshmen. In Sports we were represented by Jac-ed Hop-Kin, Skeeta Hine-Safi, and others who are present. We ranked high in Sports, O Ali. As for Originality, words fail. We gave a Senior Vod-Ville and what a success it was! Do you not agree, brothers? Ah, I knew you would. We were noted for our Pep, especially in Klas meetings. We were very artistic, particularly as regards the painting of numerals. This, O Ali-Opinion, is barely a suggestion of our many valorous deeds.”’ [sha-Paul Ali-Hadden sat down and all showed their pleasure and approval by rising and bowing low. Ali-Opinion rose and spoke: ““Mriends, IT am indeed pleased with this account. I should like to hear of more of your accomplishments, but the cool night air is approaching. It is time we were going on our way to Mecea, the city of Higher Education. May our Klas keep these attributes as long as we live.”’ All rose and mounted their camels. The procession wended its way slowly over the gleaming sands; the soft sish-swish of the camels’ feet in the sand and the gentle tinkling of many silver bells, filled the desert air with the sweetest music.

Then in his deep, harsh voice he said: “Today the final judgement is to be made on the question, ‘Is the Junior class at S. P. TH. S. the best class in the school?’ We will have a final summary of your points, Mr. Junior.”’ Mr. Junior—‘‘T will give very briefly those points which will most con- cisely prove it: First, let us take the military drill work, for it is of such importance today. Henry Freeman is major at the very head of the business; Harold Wright and Kenneth Sanson come next in importance, being captains. This will merely give you an idea of how we are represented in this line. ““As to athleties, we are well represented in every different branch. In football there were not better men on the field than Emery Wride and Henry Freeman. In track and tennis we are represented by—’’ Judge—‘T fear your time is up, Mr. Junior. You have too many fine qualities and as for your “‘pep,’’ I see that in your very arguments. Will some one now speak opposing this question ?”’ 35 We’ve I think our class is better. Another Class—‘I oppose this cause. done lots more in every way.’’ Judge—‘‘Be specific, please.”’ I ecouldn’t just name we’ve done, but it’s Other Class—‘‘ Well, what perfectly plain that we did more.” Judge—‘‘Ts there any other opposition? I may say that it has been successfully proved that the Junior Class of 1919 is the best class of 8. P. H. S. My own opinion is that they’re wonderful and can’t be beaten anywhere. So I advise the gentlemen of the jury to ponder well on their decision.’’ DORIS FOWLER. (long silence) Then I think Z ea ™, ed Vy pt THE CLASS OF ’21 When we, the Class of ’21, began our career in the South Pasadena High School we were hailed with something like derision. Although this is our second year, we are not yet regarded with great favor, but perhaps it is because others do not realize our merits. We are more fully represented in athletics than any other class in the school. For football we had Elton Fulton, Halsey Barden, Horace Heising, William Cass, Earl Van Atta, and others. We won man y poimts for the ‘ause, and again in baseball we have William Shields, Elton Fulton, William Jass, and Lester Walker as representatives. But athletics is not our only ace, for there are several Sophomores in the Orchestra and Glee Clubs, and many of Miss Mutton’s promising artists are Sophomore girls. Our class also has class spirit, as was shown by the way we kept our numerals on the hill by the school. Mr. Kinney, the faculty, and other classes have also given us permission to have an organization with a chair- man, vice-chairman, and secretary. The students elected to these positions are William Cass, chairman; Elton Fulton, vice-chairman; Cora McCorkle, secretary. FRANCIS MANCHESTER, B-10. 38 THE FRESHMAN CLASS Freshmen are about the same the world over, and our class has lived up to most of the requirements. Many thought that we would begin the year with terror in our hearts for fear we should be ‘‘eaten alive,’’ but, strange as it may seem, we did have enough sense to realize that sane persons, such as the members of the faculty, would not eat ‘‘green things.’’? This explains the brave start we made. We did our best to assist the Seniors when they were putting on their famous ‘‘Vode-Vil,’? and one day some of the members of our class staged a game of ‘‘tag’’ around the buildings, all for the entertainment of the Seniors. We didn’t want them to be disappointed in us, you know. Already our class is famous for its ‘‘pep,’’? and we bring this “‘pep’’ to good use while rooting at the games. We have also done our duty in buying Student Body Tickets and in supporting the “‘Tiger.’’ In fact, we have done our best to back every enterprise of the school. The class of ’22 has made a good start which almost always insures a eood ending; and with a good start and a good finish, the middle will take care of itself. Just watch us! RUTH CANARY. 40 A TALE OF WAR There are many tales of war, ’tis true, Tales happy and light and gay,— But also are many, many tales Caused sorrow for many a day. Her name was Celeste—sweet one to him— And Jean was the name he bore; They bade each other a fond farewell, Before he left for the war. Twas a grand and glorious eve in September, When thus these two did part; And he left for the Front at dawn the next morn With a strong and courageous heart. In three months or more, word came to Celeste That Jean, her lover, was wounded! Her heart almost failed, but staunch was she, And hoped with courage unbounded. And then one day—he was nearly recovered After Celeste had had many a scare— Word came to them all in the village town Jean had received the Croix de Guerre! But the enemy came on—those gray-green hordes That had no regard for life; Took lover from sweetheart, father from son, And many a man from his wife. The tide took a turn, the French gained ground, But alas! one drive in the night Cost not one life, but many, ’tis true, And Jean’s brave soul took flight. Celeste loved him so, her grief was great— She mourned, alas, in vain ; Tho’ she outwardly bore her grief quietly, She never can love again. There are many tales of war, ’tis true, Tales happy and gay and light; But many’s the heart that is aching For men ‘‘gone West’’ for the right. Helen King, A9 41 a we PAETPO LY 43 Glass of 1918 Courtesy of Class of 1919 THE CLASS OF 1918 We. the class of 718, started our High School career in 1914 with a happy- go-lucky spirit taking everything which came to us as a matter of course. Little did we feel or realize the great struggle which was beginning across seas. In fact it was not until the Spring of 1917 that we first felt what sacrifice at school meant. This was the request from the Seniors that we give up the custom of having the Junior-Senior Banquet. So we changed our plans and entertained with a Lawn Party which proved to be a grand success. We started our Senior year with all the enthusiasm that was to be found. We began raising funds for the Annual, which we wanted to be the best that had ever been published at South Pasadena High School. Then came the ‘‘Shadow of the Spirit of 18’? which meant immediate sacrifice on the part of every one. The class of 18 met this spirit with serious minds. It was with a unanimous decision that we gave up the keepsake of our year, knowing that in the years to come we would never regret this step. It will be one of our dearest memories that we did our utmost to help that cause for which true Americans stand. The Annual fund was given to the French orphan and the Armenian Relief. Then came another important issue. could we leave a Memorial to the school Tlow which meant some ornamentation when the children of Belgium were poorly clothed and hungry? Needless to Say, the remaining money in the tree sury and all the proceeds of the Class Play went to Belgian Relief. We appreciate the thoughtfulness of the Class of ’19 in this their Annual. We wish them the best of success in all future undertakings. 45 CLASS OF 1918 Julia MeEniry Robert Cravens President Vice President Marguerite Raab Agnes F. Murdoch Everett Andrews Secretary Class Teacher Treasurer Class Motto ‘ Facta non Verba’’ 46 THE THREE EVENTS The events dear to every Senior’s heart and memory number three and the first of these is the ‘‘play of plays’’ staged by the Senior Class. The Enelish play, ‘‘The New Lady Bantock,’’ by Jerome K. Jerome, pre- sented under the capable direction of Miss Bonesteel met with an appreciation which was indeed gratifying. The author, at his best, in this clever play pro- vided many unusual situations, both humorous and pathetic. Headed by Mildred Anderson and Lyle Donovan, as Lady and Lord Bantock, the re- mainder of the cast proved themselves entirely worthy of their talented leads. The dainty and charming Lady Bantock contrasted amusingly with her grimly disapproving relatives and servants, the Bennets. Martin Bennet, the butler, and Susannah Bennet, the housekeeper, were cleverly portrayed by Everett Andrews and Agnes North. Robert Hine, as Dr. Freemantle and Eleanor Stephens and Elizabeth Coutts as the clinging, unworldly Misses Witherell gave the delightful touch of an earlier generation, while Harland Beardslee made George Newte, her Ladyship’s former business manager, an altogether amusing figure. The best feature of the play was the size of the check, donated to war relief work, which was a silent witness to its financial success. Not less important was Class night, the frolie night of the Seniors. [ol- lowing the address of welcome by our President, Julia MeRniry, the class will was read as usual, giving, devising, and bequeathing the vices and virtues of 18 to the Student Body jointly and separately. But with the Propheey our native originality, assisted by Miss Hubbard, peered forth in the form of a weird mechanical device, a would-be sausage grinder, which produced each member of the class as strange, even fantastic figures, for fate worked her will on a varied plan. After the class sone and Serpentine the pictures of our boys ‘‘somewhere in the service’? were flashed on the screen. And last, but not least, came the final appearance, the swan song of the Class of 718. On Thursday, June twentieth, nineteen hundred and eighteen, the Senior Procession marched down the familiar assembly, cleverly disguised by the Juniors, under a mass of greenery and Blue and Gold. The address of the evening, ing with the times, was one of stirring patriotism. Then came the presentation made by Judge Benjamin F. Bledsoe, and thoroughly in keep- of our diplomas, the tangible evidence of all that the under-graduate strives for, the key to new vistas and better battles from which the memory of our Alma Mater will never long be absent. 47 Name Hverett Andrews Mildred Anderson Karl Arndt Gertrude Bush Harland Beardslee Gladys Boekenoogen Ray Brahams Margaret Brinkerhoff Clayton Bingham Kmily Cass Herbert Coops Elizabeth Coutts Sara Cramer Robert Cravens Margaret Cleeland Emma Derby Lyle Donovan Mabel Dublin Edna Ewan John Ewing Hugh Fife Elizabeth Freedle Gertrude Garmshausen Velma Gates Dorothy George Hanna Gretler Ralph Groner Tyuna Hanson Tsabel Hazlett Robert Hine Inez Jochum Marien Knox Allen Lawyer Jerrynee Lynn Will Marshall Louise McCormick Julia MeRniry CEASS OF 1918 College or Occupation Address At home South Pasadena Woesy (Gh South Pasadena Notre Dame Notre Dame, Indiana Pasadena Hospital Pasadena, Calif.

The loss of their presence has been greatly felt by all. - When activities were once more resumed, all students co-operated in making the remainder of the year one of the most successful that the organization had yet known. Its chief purposes, advancement of good will among the students, raising funds for the support of athletics and other activities, and interest and enthusiasm for the same, were borne well in mind and every effort concentrated on them. Hspecially did the bookstore have good success: this past year, and handled tennis equipment together with all the other necessary demands of students. Everyone can well be proud of the 8.P. H. S. Tiger, too, for the entire year and we are much indebted to the Journalism class, under the direction of Miss Morgan, for their faithful work on it. We had the good fortune of having very good entertainments in the form of speakers, motion picture films, and slides, presented to us during the year. Because the times were pressing ones in the history of our country, much ben- efit was derived from the fitting and interesting instruction received from the platform and screen. We wish to extend to Mr. Kinney, as faculty advisor, and to the Board of Education an expression of appreciation for their help and guidance through- out the year. Without their aid and the co-operation of the Student Body officers we could not have made the year as successful as it proved to be. The following were the Student Body officers for the past year, 1918-19: NG yo yi S Diva yam Renee rs eee ON oor Tesh 2 Aca EL CR President FAUT Cra ACE Gye es cpu eee een ean or GO og, ele Vice President CIO S7A GHG el eae ea cneee tee AN a ian) Cae, SE Vice President AV cilldal cig As triaiciind toner ona male ge Pa ane ae ate F Treasurer VaR ree AUT ONS eee cote Se SUP ae yee eek ade Pera f Secretary Ro bercm © ASsaek eye cere see ey vee te 2 Board Member at Large Keenie GhisS arts Oneness: eee ee Senior Board Member IW orllitaniiice)iet in Cave te eee eR ene dee ara Junior Board Member Moe 1S ©. © Keine ye so: ee eee Rae ee Faculty Advisor Georges Powells sts ieee ee ee eee Athletic Manager Wun Classan cher sees oan eer he ee Seat! er i ueeey Debating Manager 1D anageRTchiand sys oe eee re” Oy ens Paul Hadden, Howard Smith...

No other department has undergone more changes this year than this one. Although Miss Wells left us early in the year, we have been very fortunate in having Miss Mutton here. In addition to the subjects offered last year several new classes have been formed: costume design, which has been of great interest to the girls; interior decoration; and block printing. The commercial side of art work has been most prominent, and has supplied posters for all school activities, emphasizing the practical side of Art. South Pasadena has been highly honored by having several exhibits in the Art rooms. The Japanese prints, which were first shown, were a very rare and unusual treat. The second exhibition was that made by the Foster Kleiser Bill Company. This consisted of original bill posters which were most interesting and valuable to the pupils in affording an opportunity for the study of the technique and psychology of advertising. The third exhibit was made by the Edward Henry Weston of Glendale, who has an inter- national reputation as a photographer. Here again, the student profited by the study of the essentials of good photography. The art rooms have been improved by the making of a very beautiful, hand-carved shelf for the bas-relief of a Madonna and a filing cabinet for illustrative material. The work was done by the Manual Training students. The Art classes have more than doubled in size sinee the first of the semester and it is expected that next year will see an even greater increase. 60 THE LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT In the field of foreign language, South Pasadena Tigh is second to none in the work she offers to her students. The work consists of Latin, French, and Spanish all of which are most interesting and valuable. The Latin department is doing its usual good work despite the loss of time caused by a visit from the ‘‘Flu.’’? The beginning class in particular is to be complimented. At present their work is as far advanced as that of the last year’s class, while the grade of work is exceptional. The tenth year class also expect to complete the required course and convey Caesar safely across the bridge. The ‘‘Virgilians,’’ though few in number, make up in quality what they lack in quantity. The results of the work here are again gratifying as the class intends to finish the ‘‘Aeneid”’ in time to read, and perhaps pre-- sent a Latin play for the general benefit of the school. This will, in a measure, make up for the horrors of translation and prose composition. The Modern Language Department, under the supervision of Mrs. Mars- land, has advanced a great deal this year. Although the ‘‘Flu’’ vacation interrupted, and the quantity of work had to be lessened, the quality of the work was kept at its regular high standing and much of the former schedule was accomplished. Before the end of the War, a course in War-French was offered, which was designed to give the boys some fundamental knowledge of the language, that would help them, should they be called. However, the War came to a close and so did the classes in War-French, but the interest was kept up just the same. The first year classes, in both French and Spanish, have advaneed rapidly and gained a thorough understanding of the languages, while the second vear classes have read plays and stories and gone into the more minute par- tieulars. The ease with which conversation is carried on is quite astonishing, and the standards of the department are being constantly raised to such a high degree of efficiency that the brightest prospects are entert ained for the future. MECHANICAL DRAWING South Pasadena High School is indeed fortunate in having a good course and an efficient instructor in Mechanical Drawing. If a person is mechanically inclined and has an artistic temperament, such a course is very beneficial to him. A fine class has been in session this year, forty talented pupils being enrolled, and their work has been most successful. Al] who have completed the course are enthusiastic over their work and prep- arations are being made to enlarge the classes for the coming year. This branch has had a fine start in the school and an excellent future is expected for it. 61 H THE COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT The commercial department of the South Pasadena High School, or any high school, in fact, has the ability to become the biggest, most interesting, and most valuable department in the school curriculum. The commercial department of this school has already a wonderful start. Stenography, typing, bookkeeping, penmanship, and all the financial business of the Student Body are taught under the direction of Miss L. K. Crosby. Such an opportunity as this is certainly valuable. No business course is complete without a knowledge of every one of those subjects, nor is one com- plete with only those, but it gives the student a start and an inspiration. With the addition of adding machines, comptometers, banking, and other systems, the course will be made so valuable that everyone should consider it as im- portant a study as English, history, or mathematics, HISTORY There is probably no one who has not at some time or other heard some- one else say, ‘‘Oh what’s the use, history will never do me any good. I can’t remember one date from another.’’ But such a person forgets one of the fundamental objects of history, to narrate the history of the past in such a way as to help make plain the events and problems of our own world. It is not so much in trying to remember that Columbus sailed the ocean blue in fourteen hundred ninety-two, as it is to enable the student of history to catch up with his own time. Let us turn for a moment to consider another phase of history, that of its importance in connection with the other branches of learning. Where would we be in English if we were absolutely ignorant of the subject of history? No matter that we do not retain the details, we have gained a general knowledge of history that will be invaluable in taking up some particular part of it. Although many high schools offer four years of history, we believe here that this four year course may be wisely reduced to three years in order to give more attention to economies, civies, and kindred subjects. The first copious volume in history that meets the eye of the unsuspecting ninth year student is Ashley’s ‘‘Harly European Civilization.’’ In this phase of history the political development was condensed in some cases to make room for the accounts of the literature, religion, architecture, character, and habits of the different nations. It is as important to know how the ancients wrote their books as to know how they fought their battles; and as necessary to study the dawn of our own customs in English home-life as to trace the intricacies of the Wars of the Roses. The study of their manners and customs repre- 62 ——— as aa ag A ce —=- sents to us the people of history as men and women like ourselves. The second volume that meets one’s inquiring gaze on his quest for historical knowledge is ‘‘Outlines of European History, Part Two’? by Robinson and Beard. This is an outline of the History of Europe from the eighteenth century to our own day. You know there is a common tendeney to save the best of everything till the last, perhaps that we may enjoy the anticipation—who knows? In any case that is the way we feel about United States History and Civies as taught by Mr. Kinney. For four years we have had it held up to us that when we were seniors we would have the opportunity to take United States History. At the beginning of the year we invested in two books, Muzzy’s ‘‘ American History’? and Ashley’s ‘‘New Civies.’’ We also had the opportunity for reference to any number of other history books, the purpose being to make us as broad as possible on the questions that are constantly coming up, as well as to give us a good working knowledge of as many of the history textbooks as possible, so as to make our college history easier for us. There are two things which this history course is bringing to us other than just a knowledge of United States History. First, it is connecting the things that are happening around every day with the things we learn from textbooks. And second, it is giving us an interest in current topies; it enables us to read with intelligence the morning paper. In order to be good citizens we must know something of the internal workings of our government. Soon we will have a hand in governing the affairs of our country and we must be qualified to do something towards controlling and saving our country from weakness and ‘defects. MANUAL TRAINING Manual training, like other class work, has been sadly disrupted because of the influenza quarantine, resulting in the shortened school year. However, the work done by some of the students is exceptional and deserves further mention. Perhaps the finest work ever done by a regular High School student in this institution is a Colonial or Grandfather clock made by Chester Sherer. This clock, made of earefully selected Tobasco mahogany, is an imposing sight with its many turnings, storied pillars, and classic arches. It must he seen to be appreciated. A William and Mary gate leg table, made by Vernon Wickizer, is also a product of unusually artistic craftsmanship. This table with its hinged legs and drop leaves looks as if it might have come from the shop of an old master cabinetmaker. 63 The classes in woodwork have made many other artistic and useful pieces of furniture. A highly carved Gothic shelf made for the Art Depart- ment is of unusually beautiful design and workmanship. A quartered oak Sheraton buffet is of great interest. Six. dining room chairs of a unique Sheraton design are under construction. Floor and table lamps of every deseription have been made by the students. Stunning cedar chests captivate the eyes of all the young ladies. Desks, music cabinets, squadrons of tea carts, tables, porch swings, and tabarets of every description make up the multitude of useful and beautiful articles made in Manual Training. ENGLISH Literature is the flesh, mind, and beauty of the historical skeleton. From the four years of English in high school, one may realize this more and is led to a better appreciation of literature. To make the ninth year English course more interesting, the classes do a great deal of outside work in connection with their text books. Many important conditions have been brought about by the war and some of them have a direct relation to different phases of the ninth year English; for in- stance, the means of warfare in the days of Ivanhoe and the Old Testament Stories compared with the warfare of today. Also the unusual conditions existing in the Holy Land this year offer a great opportunity for those study- ine the Old Testament Stories. The tenth year introduces the pupil to descriptive poetry. This knowledge proves invaluable when more difficult poetry is taken up the last year. Novels of different kinds are read and also famous documents from American History such as Gettysburg Speech, and Lowell’s Demoeracy, as well as speeches on present day Americanism. Particular attention is paid to the style and lan- euage of the various books. Eleventh year English ineludes, particularly, American Literature. Emer- son’s ‘‘Compensation’’ is taken up in detail. Quite recently there has been added to the course a book on Short Stories, which are absorbing and also practical. Most of these stories are by American authors and the student is further acquainted with writers of his own country. Twelfth year English deals with English Literature. Works by the Eng- lish authors are studied. Some of these are ‘‘Burke’s Conciliation,’’ (will a Senior ever forget it?), ‘‘Paradise Lost,’’ and ‘“‘David Copperfield.’’ Each year a Shakespearian Play is purused. This year the ‘‘Tragedy of Macbeth’’ was the one studied. Outside reports form an important part of Senior English. 64 Those from ‘‘English Literature’? by Miss Seudder fill a great and honored space in Senior notebooks. Two days every week are given to composition work in the Enelish Depart- ment. The ninth year work has to do with narration, the tenth, deseription. Exposition comes in the eleventh year and argumentation the twelfth. Em- phasis is placed upon correct word usage and speaking, for a student without these has lost the most important thine in the English course. From this well rounded course of four years, which aims to acquaint the student with the different types and forms of literature, he is better able to appreciate it. It is worth while even if he does not continue his work in college, for literature is universal. THE SCIENCE DEPARTMENT The science departinent comprises Physies, Chemistry, Household Chem- istry, Biology, and General Science, General Science and Biology are two of the most wide awake and interest- ing subjects of the high school course. They are valuable, too. because of their relation to every day life. In General Science we study the basie principles of all sciences, learning answers to hundreds of questions we have often wondered about. We study the building up of matter, plant and animal life, rocks and minerals. .We get a general view of electricity, sound, light, heat, and we learn about many of the organs of our bodies. We learn about innumerable other thines and have an opportunity to try ourselves out in the various fields of science. Biology is the study of life and we certainly need to know all we ean learn about living things. It is most interesting to watch the actions of the little one-celled animals under the microscope. Then we trace the develop- ment of living forms and how they become more and more complex. We study plants and flowers. But the best part of Biology is the study of our own bodies. We take up every part in detail and study the motions and care of each part. This study is most practical in every day life and is beneficial to all students preparing for medicine, art, or agriculture. General Science and Biology recitations ave held five days of the week with two laboratory periods added. Remember the practical value and ‘‘pep”’ of these two subjects when making out your program, Physies and Chemistry are known as the finishing sciences and are taken by 11th and 12th year students who are preparing for college. The work is extremely interesting in these subjects and one learns thines that have puzzled him in every day life. One half of the week is taken up with class discussion and the other half the student applies what he has learned by means of experimenting. The classes boast of much good material to work with, the instruments used being fine and delicate. Every once in a while the classes take trips to various places such as the Telephone Company, the heating, lighting, and bell systems in the sehool. These studies are invaluable to anyone going to college or to business and since the need for engineers and chemists is great, one could ha rdly find a more profitable course in high school, 65 MUSIC DEPARTMENT The Musie Department is not confined to the Glee Clubs, Orchestras. and Uke-Apollo Club. There are several other branches that are of great import- anee for their own sakes and as academic work. For instance, there is the Harmony Class. The pupils study the construc- tion of chords, and, later on in the year, they write little compositions of their own, beginning with the simple melodies and working into more complicated pieces. You never ean tell; we may have some budding composers in our midst. In order to write good music, one must be able to appreciate what others write ; so there is the Music Appreciation Class, whose time is given over chiefly to the interpretation of the world’s greatest music. A program is given once a week. The piano class is at present working on a two-piano piece to be played at Franklyn High School in the musical festival. There are five in the class, and each pupil has a fifth of the period in a private lesson. The Boy’s Quartette does not need an introduction. They have already been heard in various entertainments, and their two periods a week of practice are rewarded by excellent results. And last, but not: least, by any means, is the Advanced Music Class, com- posed of six girls who come twice a week to practice. This class is made up of the best six female voices in school, and a pianist, and with Mrs. Bartlett’s able training they have learned to sing very well a great many lovely songs. GIRLS’ GYMNASIUM IN S.P.H.S. Gymnasium in S. P. H. S. has never in the history of the school been so successful as this year. Through the efforts of Miss Smith, girl’s basket- ball, indoor baseball, and various other teams have been organized. As we did not have Miss Smith the entire year we were a little late in starting, but certainly have developed rapidly since she began. Some of the upper- class girls have been allowed to take tennis instead of gym, thus making stars for our tennis team, so it is readily seen that this department has not been idle a minute during the entire year. An exciting game of basket-ball was staged between the Senior-Fresh and Junior-Soph teams, near the end of the year. Much talent was shown in the former team and the result was they won. Those on the teams were: SENIOR-FRESHMAN Forwards—G. Bunner, V. Lent, L. Lynn. Centers—M. Hettick, R. Gallon, M. Westcott. Guards—M. Fennell, V. Gigas, B. Moyer. JUNIOR-SOPHOMORE Forwards—O. Boyer, R. Mathews, R. Burnell. Centers—B. Rogers, D. Miller, H. Smith. Guards—M. Ll. Steele, P. Hammer, H. Tapper. 66 THE DOMESTIC SCIENCE DEPARTMENT A girl in high school taking Domestie Science probably gets more out of this subject than she does from any other study she may take. This is because the problems of dressing herself neatly, attractively, and yet with little cost, and the knowledge of cooking that will help her to make things appetizing, of good food value, and serve them well, are two of the greatest and most difficult things she will have to confront in her later life, if she is to take care of a home of her own. In cooking, under Miss Moore’s and Miss MeRae’s careful supervision, the girls are taught the best and most economical way of preparing all kinds of good foods. Along with this they are shown the values of each food, whether it is good for one, and why, or, if bad, why; how much of one thing a person should have, and then what proportion of something else there should be to balance it. Besides these things, they are taught how to set a table properly and then serve a meal. The girls also learn how to keep a budget, and that by doing this a house may be run on a much better basis. Although they are taught all of these things in cooking, the sewing is not neglected by any means. During the past year, alone with Red Cross and Relief work, the pupils made dresses, skirts and the more difficult things. Many of them made over old clothes for their brothers, sisters, and themselves. For most of their clothes they bought patterns, but for some they made their own drafts. Last, but not least, they were given a course in millinery, and after buying the shapes for the hats they made them completely. This is only a brief summary of the work done by the girls, and a better idea of their efforts and the interest they take in their work could be obtained by a visit to this department. BOYS’ GYM. A more ‘‘classical’’ name for this course would be ‘Class in Advanced Tumbling,’’ for in it there are many who are worthy to wear the costume of a real cireus acrobat. Besides the tumbling there is a continued study of calisthenics which are most strenuous. The exercises practiced are carefully selected from the army manual and are those.of most benefit to the physical conditions of the boys. The class is made up of about twenty fellows who are especially inter- ested in physical work. Mr. Leonard enjoys the period as much as any of the fellows and his instructions are very helpful and appreciated by all. 67 MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT Perhaps one of the most difficult subjects to teach and to study which the school curriculum prescribes is the subject of mathematics. However, it is an extremely practical study and is used in every line of work. So it must be admitted that the subject requires laborious toil, but when the pupil studies it deeply and perseveringly he will find it extremely interesting. In South Pasadena High School four years of the subject are offered. Two years are required for the boys, Algebra and one other subject, but girls are allowed to substitute two years of a language in place of the second year. Plane Geometry is usually taken in the tenth year and the other two years are offered, but are not compulsory. The eleventh year consists of Advanced Algebra and the twelfth of Solid Geometry and Trigonometry. A strong reason why mathematics is such an interesting subject is because of the efficiency with which the subject is taught in this school. In Miss Meek and Miss Hisgen one finds two capable, helpful, and successful instructors. Their suecess has been eminent as illustrated by the few failures among the students. The September Freshman class has been exceptionally strong and the standard has been very high in all the classes. Both teachers value indus- try and studious toil and for that reason they believe that this year has been a very successful one. NN ULLIAN BENNETT THE JOURNALISM CLASS Work. That’s the ‘‘middle name”’ of the Journalism class. Do you who sit of an evening in an easy chair and laugh over our Joke Column, smile good naturedly over our humorous ‘‘Personals,’’ and otherwise thor- oughly enjoy everything the Tiger has to offer, ever stop to think of the amount of work it requires to put out that paper? Probably not. Let us take a moment or so and look into the depth of it. What do you see? Monday. A class of about fifteen—everyone writing—the seritch-seratch of an army of pens forming all sorts of articles. Tuesday—more writing— articles being copied on regulation paper—being made ready .to be sent to the printing office. After school Tuesday the material is ‘‘rounded up’’ and taken to the Record office. Wednesday, comes the reading of long strips of proof and the making up of the ‘‘dummy.’’ Thursday, the odor of paste; again the grind of pens and the rustle of paper, as all hands are at work folding ‘‘Tigers,’’ addressing, and wrapping the ‘‘out of towns.’’ And Friday, topics are given out and the enthusiastic young journalists are putting in black and white their ideas for the next issue of the Tiger. And so it goes day after day and with the lust of good spirit too, for all the members are working in unison—together for one definite cause: to put the school news before you in an interesting, ‘‘peppy’’ manner, and to strengthen the bond between the students of this High School. All through the. weeks of the ‘‘Flu’’ when we were all more or less “down in the depths,’’ each week came the Tiger to your doors notwith- standing the fact that there were only a few journalists able to attend school. But those few stuck by the paper and saw it through. We wish to extend our thanks to the loyal workers and to Miss Morgan, for her untiring efforts. So just remember the next time you read the Tiger, that it takes ‘‘many men, many hours,’’ to put forth the bright, snappy little paper that South Pasadena High has to offer. 69 MILITARY TRAINING While many of the usual activities at S. P. H. S. were either omitted or postponed during the past school year, military training has developed greatly, both for the girls and the boys. At the beginning of the school year every boy was a member of the cadet battalion. While several of the boys have taken up gymnasium, most of them have kept their faith in the military work. After quite a bit of waiting the school battalion was recognized by the State. As a consequence to this, it was enrolled in the California High Sehool Cadets, the battalion being composed of the 246th and 247th companies. The eadets and the whole school feel themselves deeply indebted to Mr. Kinney and the School Board for the great things they have done for the sadet organization. It was largely due to Mr. Kinney’s efforts that we were recognized by the State, and the School Board showed itself to be generous by its willingness to put up money for the equipment. Much eredit is also due to Mr. Clark, who has spent most of his spare time for the benefit 6f the cadets. About the first of Mareh we received our equipment from the State; 109 army rifles with all the accessories: belts, bayonets, scabbards, cartridge boxes, ete. With this as an incentive the military drill developed greatly. Just after the guns arrived a rifle rlub was formed, consisting of about sixty of the eadets. This was formed so that the eadets might know more about the eare and the handling of the rifles. As the State sent 3500: rounds of ammuni tion, many target practices have been planned. Before any cadet could enter these he had to pass several examinations. 70 The school battalion has been under the command of Major Freeman for the greater part of the year. His staff consisted of Lt. Barnes, adjutant ; Lt. Gigas, ordnance; and Sergeant-Major North. The 246th Company, or A Company, has been under the command of Capt. Wright and Lt. Verry. The 247th, or B Company, was commanded by Capt. Sanson, Lt. Fowler, and Lt. Parmenter. The battalion drills three days a week, and the officers drill the two other days a week, also. A fife and drum corps, organized by Mrs. Bartlett and led by Corporal MeCluskey, shows a good foundation for a larger one next year. THE FIFE AND DRUM CORPS To Mrs. Bartlett belongs the credit of the Fife and Drum Corps. She scurried around and found boys who were anxious to learn to play the fife and soon had them fitted out with these instruments. They soon learned to make a noise, so they were shown off before the school when Colonel Hutchins reviewed the troops. All they were lacking was a little wind, but, as they are Freshmen, this will soon be remedied. We mustn’t forget the drum end of the noise, either. That was the big noise, all right. Well, a Senior with tortoise-shell glasses among a bunch of Freshmen is quite a noise. Here’s to the suecess of the Fife and Drum Corps. GIRLS’ MILITARY DRILL IN S. P. H.S. Military Training, under the direction of Miss Smith, has become quite the popular thing for the girls on Thursdays, the third period. As this was the first year of military drill for the fair sex in South Pasadena High, not a great deal was expected of the girls, but they certainly have taken this thing in a serious way, hence, have made a good start for the drill to come in future years. Indeed Company A can no doubt compete with the boys; in fact, they are said to be better, by prominent critics; however, we give the boys credit for handling the guns. Company B is also coming along and will make regular soldiers some day. The officers who have assisted Miss Smith are: Lyda Lynn, Captain of Company A, and Frances Kinney, Captain of Company B. Next year more officers will be chosen, including majors, lieutenants and other officers which they have in the regular army; then military drill will doubtless be more a complete success. GIRLS’ LEAGUE Our Girls’? League was organized two years ago, following the plan and constitution of the other leagues in the Federated Leagues of Southern Cali- fornia. The League has played a large part in school activities during the past year. The many war relief funds met ready response from the girls. Red Cross sewing, knitting, and salvage work were carried on during the summer and fall; money was raised for Belgian relief by selling flowers on Belgian Relief Day and by our Belgian box in the hall; several candy sales were held netting over twenty-five dollars for Armenian Relief in the spring drive. A Valentine masquerade party was given by the League and new girls’ parties after school were given for each incoming class. A fete was held in May to raise money for the scholarship fund, as the present aim of the League is to help send some worthy girl to college each year. Beside the officers and cabinet, there are committees for House and Yard, New Girls, Ways and Means, Entertainment and Athleties, to bring the girls into active service.

This quartet is composed of Powell, McCluskey, McEniry, and Hine. Our bi-weekly sings are much enjoyed by all. Mrs. Bartlett, our very efficient leader, has sueceeded in bringing forth much pep and interest. A good deal of the material is new, yet is promising and next year, barring an epidemic or any other such cause, may be looked forward to with much interest. The Club is erowing and rivals any other in Southern California. Its real mettle will be tested, however, at the annual contest to be held at one of the neighboring high schools in the near future. The Club is organized, the officers being: Howard Smith, President; George Powell, Vice-President; Huie Hanson, Secretary- Treasurer. GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB Our Girls’ Glee Club has supplied more material for the different enter- tainments in the year than any single department in the school. It is all good material, too, for only those girls of decided ability are admitted. This year the try-outs discovered sixty-four girls qualified to belong, so the director, Mrs. Emma M. Bartlett, had to enlarg e the department. The girls have one period a week for special training and combine with the Boys’ Glee Club for another period, which makes a very complete chorus. The officers of the Glee Club are: president, Violet Lent; vice-president, Marjory Tussing; and secretary-treasurer, Dorothy Groton Dorothy Groton accom- panies and Cora McCorkle plays the obligatos. In order to do more advanced work for which a larger body would be too unwieldy, nineteen of the girls with the best voices were selected to form what is called the ‘‘Special Girls’ Glee.’’ Some very finished work is being accom- plished by the smaller group. THE MIKADO At the beginning of the school year the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs started work on the opera ‘‘Mikado.’’ Everyone was hard at work when the influenza epidemic came along and interrupted the plans. The date was set for the presentation, but it had to be given up on account of the two months’ delay caused by the epidemic. Hveryone was sorry when it was decided not to give the ‘‘Mikado,’’ as an excellent cast had been selected. The cast was as follows: The Mikado ae en ee James MeEniry Nauki Poo, (his son)..

There are a number of new members who have received some valuable instruc- tion from Mrs. Bartlett, the directress. This is Mrs. Bartlett’s first year with the orchestra and she is to be congratulated upon the showing made by the pupils. The orchestra has been asked to play at several outside occasions also, which speaks well for its ability. Following are the names and instruments of the members. Violins—Fred Thomson, Cora McCorkle, Dorothy Biggs, Paul Reeder, Ruth Burdge, Howard Hood, Leslie Riggins, George Cray. Cello—George Coutts, Francis Manchester. Bass-—Lillian Bennett.

Organ—Huie Hanson. Librarian—Dick Taylor. THE UKE-APPOLO CLUB There were so many different instruments around the school that could not be admitted to the orchestra, that the Uke-Apollo Club was organized with Mrs. Bartlett in charge of the ‘‘ukes,’’ Miss Mutton, the mandolins, and Mrs. Dolland, the guitars. The following officers were elected: George Powell, Pres- ident: Lyda Lynn, Vice-President, and Paul Hadden, Secretary. The organiza- tion includes twenty-six ukes, five mandolins, three guitars, saxophone, and two violins. The music of the songs has been transeribed for the instruments and they all blend together harmoniously. The club has given a great deal of pleas- ure by taking part in assembly and concert programs. TREBLE CLEFF CLUB Three vears ago the Treble Cleff Club was first organized. The purpose of the club was to promote a better appreciation of music. The meetings are held once a month at some member’s home. An entertaining program is given by the members. This year the Opera in its different stages of development is the subject of study. Since the number must be limited, only Junior and Senior eirls are eligible. The club has been very beneficial and many pleasant after- noons have been spent at these mectings. The officers for the year are: Mar- jorie Tussing, President; Florence Sutton, Vice-President ; Dorothy Groton. Seeretary and Treasurer; Mrs. Emma Bartlett, Advisor. 77 OUR JAZZ BAND South Pasadena High School is certainly lucky to possess such a fine trio of musical young men as she does in the personages of Hadden, Powell, and Bush. Many people do not quite understand the literal and correct meaning of “‘jazz.’’ but if they would only come and listen to these fellows a few minutes, they would go away with a complete comprehension of the word. It is hard to find anything to equal this band in its line. Hadden, a jolly, be-horn-rimmed fellow, plays the drums and traps, and he certainly is a wonder. There is not a catchy rhythm that he cannot play and it has been noticed that it is extremely hard for even the faculty to be dignified when Hadden gets ‘‘warmed up.” Mr. Bush is the bushy haired young man who bounces around so at the piano. It is fully agreed by everyone who has heard him that he ean’t be beaten. Probably there are some who think that it is easy to get ‘‘jazz’’ out of a piano, but just let them try it and immediately they will appreciate the worth of the art. The third member of the Jazz Band is the blonde, pompadored fellow who hides behind a saxophone. He is known around school by the name of George, alias, ‘“‘Jerry’’ Powell. It has been said that the saxophone is one of the most beautiful of instruments in respect to tone and after listening to “Jerry’’ awhile this statement becomes a well established fact. Upon the graduation of these young fellows S. P. H. S. will lose one of her best assets; that is, one of her most enjoyable and desired means of enter- tainment and pleasure.

P. H. 8. The audience was unusually large and the interest of the spectators grew as the play progressed. The story dealt with college people, and the plot was dramatie as well as interesting. As its name signified, ““Seven Against Kight’’ had a thrilling climax. In the first act, Henry Brooks, his mother, and Helen Baldwin, his sweetheart, have gone to see the college men give a play, and Bab, the servant girl, and Father Brooks are alone on the farm. When Mr. Brooks has gone out of the room, a knock is heard at the window, and Bab opens the door to a man—lost, he explains later. He is a doctor, Dr. Marks, by hame, of not very serupulous methods, who practices hypnotism. He offers fo cure Bab’s toothache, and by so doing gains her promise to be his friend when he needs her. When the family return from the play, they bring some of the college men with them to spend the night. One of them, Lord Chillingsworth, is ill, and Dr. Marks gives him a treatment. In the mean- 86 time, Pete, Lord Chillingworth’s valet, falls in love with Bab. Henry, it seems, 1S an expert rower, so both Weston, a man from Davenport, and Carter, of Bookworth College, try to get him to go to school. But as Davenport pays its athletes, Henry accepts the more honest offer and goes to Bookworth. In the next act, Henry is accused of stealing the examination papers for the Greek contest which he had won. On account of this, he is told not to row in the boat race. Marks, who is determined to hurt Henry in some way because young Brooks has been against his treatment of Lord Chillingworth, gives the Englishman a treatment and while he has him under his influence causes him to give false evidence of Henry’s guilt. But as Henry makes up his mind to row whether or no, Marks, who is against Bookworth, and has much money at stake on the race, seizes upon another ysnf dary OM ‘Uo[eF] PUL SYOOTg ‘“SIJ [LYM “So[[O9 8, ATUDFT JVoFop 04 ued arrived from the country, are looking at the race course with Carter and others, Bab is seated on a couch holding the oar Henry is to use. Dr. Marks gives her a treatment for the headache, and while she is under his influence causes her to exchange Henry’s oar for one that has been broken and mended temporarily. So when Henry comes he takes the oar from Bab and hurries away. The oar holds out until near the end of the race, when it breaks. To relieve his boat of his weight, Henry dives into the water, and Bookworth wins the race. In the end Henry is cleared of the suspected theft of the papers, which were found out to have been stolen by Ned Andrews, Dr. Marks’ crookedness is discovered, and he disappears. So Henry and Helen are united, and Lord Chillingworth and Pete take the Profess6r’s daughter, Amy Dixon, and Bab, the servant girl, back to England with them, and everybody is happy.

The enter- tainment, which consisted of skits from the four classes, was given in the auditorium. The skits and other added attractions were interesting and full of ‘‘pep.’’ Later in the evening the girls went to the gym, where they partook of delicious refreshments. VALENTINE MASQUERADE On February 15, 1919, promptly at 8 o’clock, quite a varied crowd gathered at S. P. H. S. Auditorium. Conspicuous costumes, good eats and jazzy entertainment brought forth from the girls and boys their merriest moods. After an hour spent in guessing who their fellow maskers were, the masks were removed and the gaily bedecked crowd assembled in the auditorium, where an entertainment had been provided by the Girls’ League. At the end of the skit, ‘‘Casey at the Bat,’’? everyone went down stairs, where refreshments were served. This Valentine Masquerade was probably the best party ever held at the High School. GIRLS. LEAGUE PARTY A general scurrying for little sisters was to be seen March 18, 1919, on which date the Girls’ League held its second party for new girls. This party proved to be a great success, consisting mostly of games in which every girl had a part, adding to the general good time of everyone. One could not wish for better eats, which were served after the games, than we had at this party. SKATING PARTY The Seniors held their annual party on the night of May 23, 1919, at Walhalla, Alhambra. Machines were provided to convey the merry crowd to the rink. Each one struggled with a pair of skates and it was surprising how few accidents occurred during the evening to such inexperienced skaters. Between falls, ice-cream was served. After two or three hours spent in skating, the party broke up and went home, some lame, but all happy. JUNIOR SENIOR BANQUET The big annual banquet given by the Juniors in honor of the Class of 19 was held on the evening of June 14, 1919, at the Woman’s Club House. A delightful evening was spent responding to toasts by various members of the classes and an entertainment consisting of skits and music followed the four-course dinner. Much credit must be given to the Junior Class for making one of the last Senior functions such a memorable occasion. 90 THE FRESHMAN PICNIC For one happy afternoon the ‘‘ wee Freshies’’ rollicked and played to their hearts’ content, all by themselves and far away from all curious Seniors and Juniors. The great Freshman Class left the high school early in the afternoon for Brookside, where they indulged in many games, and Jater there were some fine ‘‘eats.’’ Sinee this is the first Freshman class to organize, and the first to have a class party, a fine crowd attended and loads of fun resulted. We sincerely appreciate the fact that we are the first Freshman class to organize, and to have so many privileges, and we showed our appreciation by making this pienie at Brookside a big thing. THE SOPHOMORE PARTY On Friday evening, May 23, the Sophomores enjoyed a jolly evening at the home of Wm. Cass. Many games were played on the lawn and tennis court. Spice was added to the entertainment by Madame Donalinda, who, upon the presentation of our palm, gave us a ‘‘peep’’ into the future. The entire evening was one to be long remembered by the class of 721. Ke J ® s 7 ae sane spp) x x . wt ecg?

When school opened last September 16th the first thought that entered the heads of the fellows was the coming football season. With ideas of football banners and overwhelming victories, crowned by the vision of the Southern California championship trophy, preparations were made for the most successful year of American football in 8. P. H. S. The possibilities were not over-estimated as has often been the case before the season, but the real stuff was produced the first night out for practice. Clean suits, new sweaters, and an occasional new pair of shoes were seen for the first and last time during the whole season. When ‘“‘Tiny’’ Leonard assembled his football squad one could see a fine chance for all the dreams to come true. The fellows left over from last year’s winning team were in their old places working with all their might. SOUTH PASADENA VS. FRANKLIN The first game of the season started with a bang here on our home erounds, by winning from Franklin High School by a seore of 13 to 6. During the entire game the team was supported by the majority of the student body. In the first five minutes of play Franklin made the first, and her last touchdown; this sort of worked our team up and from then till the last second of the game our boys fought as they never fought before. The star of the game was our husky Captain, Paul Eldredge. Everyone on the team played good clean football to start the season with. It might be mentioned that the Franklin erew were very much disappointed by the results of the game. SOUTH PASADENA VS. CITRUS UNION The South Pasadena fans had a last opportunity to see the orange and black football team in action before the ‘‘Flu’’ vacation. This second and last real game of football was played on Citrus Union’s grounds. Our team was in splendid condition, everv fellow working together. It may well be remembered, as this was Paul Eldredge’s last game of football, and also by the seore of 13 to 0. Team Personals Capt. Eldredge, right half: Nothing less than a stone wall could stop ‘““Wienie.’? He was a sure candidate for the ALL Southern. William Perry, right tackle: Showed all the class in the world as a line plunger. Emery Wride, (captain-elect), center: Watts had the old system of “‘oct ’em’’ down pat. Henry Freeman, center: ‘‘Henery’’ showed lots of fight and helped a eveat deal in making the line hold. Elliot Hine, quarter: ‘‘Skeet’’ sure put ‘‘pep’’ into the team, and made many good gains. William Tufts Cass, right guard: ‘‘Wing’’ was some scrapper. He worked, sweated, and fought every minute of play. Jack Hopkins, left tackle: Jack sure has a ereat name as a ground gainer. Addison Norton, quarter; ‘‘Skinny’’ still had his voice left him, while. due to the fact of his using it so much, some people were worried. George Heising, end: (George played a fine game of football. Robert Whiting, guard: ‘‘Bob’’ did fine and had lots of fight in him. Paul Hadden, quarter: ‘‘Pud’’ had lots of ‘‘pep’’ in yelling signals. Francis North, guard: ‘‘Stuffy’’ is an old timer and plays with lots oJ . p ” of “‘pep.”’ Joe Clark, guard: Good, hard fighter. Always in the thick of it. Adam Leonard (‘‘tiny’’): Coach ‘‘Tiny’’ is noted over the South for his untiring efforts with his teams. ar MM, ar, gu “ays fr Fly, iy, SWZ =EMWEZ ‘se, = = = ae = = 7 vw SS SM Y yA Dy, Al i al TRACK Like everything else this year, track got a late start and consequently there was not much time for practice or meets. The fellows, however, prac- tised hard in the short time they had. Prospects for a winning team were bright with quite a few veterans back and when our first meet came around we copped off first place in our class. This mect, held at Occidental Field, was between Franklin, Glendale, Pasadena, and South Pasadena. Fulton starred for us when he took first in the shot and discus and second in the broad jump, making thirteen points in all. Captain Hine had a piece of hard luck in the 440 when his museles tightened up on him fifteen feet in the lead and threw him back into fourth place. A few days later came the Central League meet, the final one of the year where all the schools in the Central League participated. In this meet we took second place against Covina, Monrovia, Glendale, Alhambra, Franklin, and Citrus Union, Glendale taking first. Captain Hine and Fulton starred for us, Hine taking first in the mile and half-mile and Fulton first in the shot, fourth in the diseus and third in the broad jump. In the Southern California meet, we entered Fulton, Hine, and Neilson, but failed to place. The following have received letters, having placed in the Central meet: Captain Hine, Elton Fulton, Maynard Neilson, Earl Van Atta, Braeme Cigas. Joe Clark, and James MeRniry. Although not a world-beating team, the fellows should be complimented on the fight thev put up. Due to the efforts of Mr. Leonard, our coach, the team was able to win as many events as they did and to him should go much eredit. BASEBALL The baseball team this year started with a handicap. The team was practically all new and younger than teams are usually. However, with steady practice and splendid team work, we now stand two games won and two lost, at the time this Annual goes to press. Here’s hoping we win the next two and help the good work along. Our first game was with Franklin away from home. Coming home with the small end of the score, we were convinced that the team naturally ‘‘blew up’? when team work and support was needed most. A tendeney to go to sleep standing up probably was the cause of a lot of the trouble. Next Glendale came over and had a delightful afternoon with us. Meeting such ‘a strong team so early in the season was unfortunate for us. South Pasadena played a steady and hard game, but was simply outclassed. Credit is due the team for not losing its head entirely. Better luck next time. At last, Citrus fell for us. Realizing something must be done, Mr. Leonard uncovered something new in the shape of Crossly, the boy with the smoky ball. We were greatly indebted to Crossly, in pulling us out of a bad slump. His chief qualities were his speed, control, and coolness. Pitching for the first time and nine innings at that was no small feat. This evame was by far the most interesting of all, being anyone’s game till the very last. The next week we went to Covina expecting a hard game when, behold! we came home ten runs to the good. Brock, our talented ‘‘southpaw,”’ did the twirling for the first six innings in great style and was then relieved by Crossly, who had lost none of his steadiness. Fulton’s batting was the ‘feature of the game. That gentleman couldn’t seem to miss the ball at all. Having had a late start, the baseball season is not very far advanced, so we cannot give the other games in this book. Following is the team: Hopkins, captain and catcher: He is the only veteran of last year’s team left. Freeman, first base: Is a steady player and a heavy hitter, R. Walker, second base: Walker of two years ago is again with us and cannot be equalled in swiftness and sureness of playing. Hine, short stop: Is steady and has a good throwing arm. L. Walker, third base: A new find who promises great things in the immediate future. Cass, center field: A dependable player, one who does the right thing at the right time. Fulton, pitcher and outfielder: Good in both positions, he shines especially while batting. Smith, outfielder: Another find, with a promising future. Brock, pitcher: Lots of speed and left handed make him a formidable twirler. Crossly, pitcher: Few can tell wherein his strength lies. All we ean do is hold tight and look on. GIRLS’ TENNIS Girls’ tennis has been quite a suecess this year. The team is a strong one and has held its own — winning every mect excepting with Alhambra. They worked hard and fought hard for the honor of §. P. EH. S. A great deal of enthusiasm has been created about tennis and every game had its full share of wildly rooting supporters. The members of the team are: Grace Kelley 719, a hard fighter who plays a smash and sure game. Lyda Lynn 719, equally fast and sure. Marjorie Vail ’22, slow and easy, but a good fighter. Martha Dunton ’22, a plucky fighter and hard to beat. Marjorie Vail and Martha Dunton are Freshmen, so will be with us next year, and with the available material there are signs of a good team. Tennis is the only interscholastie sport for the girls and S. 1 Juke . tol is proud of the good record the team has made this year. The scores of the games played are as follows: Covina, 13—4; Glendale, 17—0; Monrovia, 17—0; Citrus, 17—0; Alhambra, 4—13. 100 TENNIS The tennis season for 1918-19 was very successful on account of the ‘‘pep”’ and interest shown by the players and students. The season was started by a 17-0 victory over Monrovia. The team’s next tournament was with Franklin who defeated them, but it was a great fight from start to finish, Franklin only winning by the bare margin of one point. This defeat, although it can be barely called that, seemed to stroke the ‘‘Tiger’s fur’’ the wrong way, for with vengeance uppermost the team entirely vanquished Citrus Union to the tune of 17-0. This victory evened up matters a little and in the next tournament the team gained another victory over Glendale and later still added another over Covina. The players were pretty happy over their three straight .vic- tories and may be a ‘‘wee bit’’ over confident because in the next and last match of the year they went down to defeat at the hands of Alhambra, our old rivals, but they survived and took their last minute defeat as S. P. expects her athletes to do. The school was represented at Ojai by James and Bullock. Although they failed to capture the trophy, Bullock reached the semi-finals in singles and was there eliminated by the winner. South Pasadena will be represented at the Dudley Cup Tournament by James and Bullock. The personnel of the team is represented by the following boys: George Powell, Bill James, Kenneth Sanson, Perey Bullock, George Peterson, and Albert Gates.
