Bush, Superintcndint FRIENDS OF THE CLASS OF 1929: It is a great pleasure to me, after watching your progress through many years of school tasks, to be able to congratulate you upon your graduation from High School. I assure you I am intensely interested in every one of you and shall continue that interest as you each take up new tasks and undertakings. I know you are looking ahead, else you would not have selected vocations as your theme for this Copa de Ore. Fortunate is he who knows early in life just what vocation he wishes to follow. This knowledge gives purpose to the training and preparation in high school and college. However, if you are not yet convinced as to the vocation you wish to follow, you need not be discouraged. There will always be the element of chance in selecting a life work. Human ingenuity has not yet framed an infallible rule for determining fitness to succeed in any calling. However, you can at least study the various vocations and inform yourselves upon the possibilities, limi- tations, and weaknesses of them, so that whatever you do. you do it with your eyes open. I sincerely trust that you will all find your proper niche , and that you will be bqth succe ful and happy. Ver cordiallv, k • George C. Bush. Page Fifteen John E. Alman, Principal You tell me that you have chosen Vocations as the theme of your book this year. I want to commend 30U for your choice. Webster says a vocation is a calling or a fitness for a calling. I suppose many of you have your minds pretty well made up as to your vocation. Are you sure you are fitted by temperament for that thing? Do you have the energy, the push, the stability to go through with it? Can you keep level at the top. as Damron the potter told you? Education is experience gained for efficient living. As you think and plan your life ' s work, keep that in mind. With best wishes for your success and happiness, I am, Yours sincerely, John E. Alm. n.

SENIOR HISTORY Otis Blasingham Presnient Four years ago the class of ' 29 entered this great fac- tory of knowledge, South Pasadena High School, and began their work. Every step attained has been by appli- cation of each bit of new learning gained from the pre- ceding step. Now as the ' leave, they may well look back with pride upon their history. In 1925 the class, recently from grammar school, en- rolled as freshmen or mere apprentices in the factory. Here their steps were guided by Miss Farrar as class adviser, and their activities headed by Thomas McEniry as president. During their a pprenticeship they won the interclass debate championship, the representatives being Car(jline Card and Clayton Shelburne. It is noteworthy also that these freshmen presented the last frosh assembly to be given at S. P. H. S. As sophomores, or mechanics, the class under the leadership of Gordon Clark and Miss Mary E. Nash, again defeated all contenders for the debate championship. This time Arabella Childs and Robert Ryan were the victors. When promoted to the positions of managers, or juniors, the class upset all exist- ing traditions by presenting the first Junior-Senior prom to be held at S. P. H. S. in recent years. Thomas McEniry and Phillips Morgan again upheld the class honor by winning for the third consecutive time the interclass debate championship. During this stage. Miss Bertha Moore directed their steps, and it was largely due to her eitorts that the junior play, Green Apples, achieved such success. Robert Ryan was president. In September of 1928 the juniors were promoted to the e.xalted heights of seniors, or directors of the factory. Here, under the presidency of Otis Blasingham and the leadership of Miss Ethel Bear, the class, resplendent in green and biege sweaters, presented as its play, Quality Street. Reviving an old custom, the seniors gave a class assembly, the entire program personnel being composed of Senior class members. The senior theatre party, preceding the Alhambra football game, was a great success. After enjoying the hospitality of the juniors at a prom, the senior class bade farewell at Class Night to all their teachers and friends who had guided them so well during their four years in the factory. Now, having profited by daily experiences at South Pasadena High School, the Senior class of ' 29 once more departs to begin as apprentices in business or collegiate life. EthelL.

Page Forty-fiz ' e Pete Dix Lorin Weldon Valerie Easterbrook Beatrice Hall Miss Farrar President lice-president Secretary Treasurer Adi ' iser JUNIOR HISTORY Bob Keedy, president, and Miss Myrtle Farrar, adviser, led the present junior class through its first year at S. P. H. S. The other officers were Lester Sanson, vice-president; Stanley Sanson, secretary; and Donald Murra , treasurer. The class of ' 30 was guided through its sophomore year by Lester Sanson and Miss Madge Hill. The other officers were Thaddeus Cresswell, Valerie Easter- brook, and John Roome. Margaret Pickering, Phil Corrigan, and Lorin Weldon were the cabinet representatives. An entertainment by the Jubilee Quartet was used as a means of swelling the funds in the treasury. The class debaters, Mary Vig and Margaret Pickering, defeated the freshmen, but fell before the champion juniors. However, winning second place in the interclass track meet made up for that. This year, under the guidance of Peter Dix, president, and Miss Farrar, adviser, has been a most successful one for the junior class. The positions of vice-president, secretary, and treasurer were held respectively by Lorin Weldon, Valerie Easterbrook, and Beatrice Hall. The cabinet representatives were Valerie Easterbrook and Thaddeus Cresswell. Numbered among the outstanding achievements of this ear was the junior class play, The Romantic Age, which was presented in February with Margaret Jillson and Arthur Lavagnino in the leading roles. By the theatre party given in conjunc- tion with the modern language department, the glory of the class was again increased. Philip Corrigan was active in the business management of these ' entures. The debaters, Jeanetta Yerxa and Horace Adams, were victorious over the hitherto un- defeated seniors, but Avere in turn vanquished by the lowly sophs. The class again won second place in the interclass track meet. It was especially proud of the track records of Peter Dix and Thaddeus Cresswell, as well as of Bob Keedy, who captained the varsity baseball team. Crowning the events of the year, the class of 1930, following the precedent set b - the present senior class, sponsored a Junior-Senior prom. This ear the juniors have done something which the hope will become a tra- dition. Instead of waiting until the are seniors to purchase senior rings and pins, they bought them this year. A committee headed by Constance Hitchcock selected the design for the rings and submitted it to the class at the April meeting. The students had a choice between large and small rings and pins, with prices ranging from $6.75 to $7.75. The ring has the South Pasadena insignia on it and is plated with silver. On each side of the insignia, two English lions support the numerals 19 and 30. The pins had the same insignia and background with pearl guard. I Page Forty-six George O ' Connor President Robert Clelland rice-president Helen Tucker Secretary Evangeline Brainard Treasurer Miss Adviser SOPHOMORE HISTORY c- 5 U The present sophomore class started its career (jn September 17. 1927, when i ' ' ' n every little fresh bo and girl was enrolled in S. P. H. S., given a card with his_ .i -  ' ' ' K.,3c ' classes written on it, and also a big sister or brother to make life easier for the first few da s. After about a week or so of wandering dumbfoundedly around the halls the freshmen became accustomed to the high and mighty upperclassmen ' s ways. Early that year the freshmen class astonished the school b ' having one of its students, Dan Hammack, own the first A. S. B. ticket for the school year of 1Q27 and ' 28. A little later on, three girls from the class, Margaret Chase, Betty Tillot- W son and Helen Tucker, were elected to the position of Girls ' League yell leaders., 1,- On October 12, 1927, a party was given for the new girls, and here every new girl was welcomed heartily by an upperclassman. On November 8, the Honor Society gave a program for the frosh, which helped them along in their career. Then x class of ' 31 put on a skit advertising Green Apples, the junior play, which ' ' ' _ A yQ ( Li Ji- L4 over well. --. 1.. 2, The freshman class officers were nominated on December 13 and elected a few 7 weeks later. Those who headed the class ere George O ' Connor, president; - L , fi,„,. j,„ „, garet Chase, ice-president ; Robert Clelland, secretary; William Urell, treasurer ; ' v 7 . - and Craig Bullock, yell leader. Later on in 1928 the class of ' 31 won the girls ' jio,,.. -—— ' ' ' uniform cup for having the fewest out of uniform for the year. By commencement time the freshmen were quite accustomed to the school ways, and stepped right into the sophomore seats the day of the candle-lighting ceremony as though they owned the school. Some were crying and some were laughing, and the remainder were amazed at all things that went on in the most wonderful assembly that year. September 10, 1928, the same boys and girls came to school, expecting to follow in the footsteps of the present junior class, but the were held back by having to sit for another ear in th.e balconv during assemblies. However, that was soon for- gotten, and the class nominated and elected their officers, October 9 and October 23, respectively. Those who this year headed the class of ' 31 were George O ' Connor, president ; Robert Clelland, vice-president ; Helen Tucker, secretary ; Evangeline Brainard, treasurer ; and Craig Bullock, yell leader. On October 30, one of the sophs, Craig Bullock, was elected to the position of school yell leader. On February 13 John Glavis wt)n a prize in Latin for the most perfect reproduction of a Greek theatre. On Februar 20, Junior Grant was elected president of the Pendragon Club. Both of these boys added to the prominence of the sophomore class. And then came the big day for the sophomores. That day Gordon McFarland and Dick Burgess defeated the juniors in the annual debate of the year, making the sophomore class first in the S. P. H. S. interclass debates.

The executive power is vested in seven commissioners, who perform their duties as officers of the student body and supervise the nomination and election of commissioners for the foUowinji year. Student body expenses are met with the proceeds from the A. S. B. ticket sale, the book store, and the surplus from the preceding ear. This year, in spite of there being no freshman class, finances, under the management of Marcus Godfrey, were quite successful. The A. S. B. ticket sale was started September 10 with an im- proved ticket in use, last ear ' s book being made small enough to fit in a midd ' pocket. In order to stimulate the students ' interest, the commission held a contest between the boys and girls to see which would have the highest percentage in buying tickets. The boys won by .24 per cent. In place of the pow-wow, which had out-grown itself, the commission this ear established a new tradition by holding a rally in the boys ' g m before the first football game. The program consisted of yells, songs, orchestra music, and speeches by coaches, captains, and alumni. Assemblies were held once a week, entertainment assemblies being interspersed with programs put on by the various organizations of the school. Music was featured at the entertainment assemblies, many well known artists — singers, pianists, violinists — performing. The commission furnished their new room attracti ely with curtains, a council table, and chairs. The Board of Education supplied linoleum. The commissioners for the year 1928 and 1929 have applied themselves to the tasks of their individual offices, and as a group ha e worked for the welfare of the student body. They have supported and developed school activities and good times.

This advance is due to the leadership of Charles Mulholland, League president, to the Boys ' League cabinet, and to the able assistance of the adviser, Mr. Monroe. GROUNDS COMMITTEE Chairman, Robert Heartt Faculty Adviser, Mr. Wilson The grounds committee faced a hard problem in the untidiness of the grounds. However, with tne cooperation of the student body as a whole, and the Boys ' League especially, this committee cleaned up the campus and kept it clean. FIELD COMMITTEE Chairman, Lawrence Collins Faculty Adviser, Mr. Carpenter The usefulness of the athletics and field committee was realized when the mem- bers prepared the field for sports and acted as hosts to visiting teams.

VOCATIONAL COMMITTEE Chairman, Luther Lee Faculty Adviser, Mr. Childs The vocational committee cooperated with the Girls ' League in putting over Vocational Day. This committee also assisted Charles Mulholland in distributing self-analvsis blanks to the boys and in arranging interviews for them with men expert in the line in which each boy was interested. This committee ' s assembly program, a particularly interesting one, was an illustrated talk by a representative of the Southern California Edison Company. ENTERTAINMENT COMMITTEE Chairman, Otis Blasingham Faculty Adviser, Mr. Green At its meetings the entertainment committee enjoyed talks by prominent towns- men on current subjects.

THE HONOR SOCIETY The aim of the Honor Society, to stimuhite scholarship, is attained by keeping before the students the value of scholarship and by rewarding worthy scholastic records. It is composed of students who have received no grade lower than a 2 and at least one 1 on their semester grades. The society holds four meetings annualU . The first is an election of officers. At the second meeting, in January, an intensely interesting program was presented by Mr. Bode, assistant rector of St. James Episcopal Church in South Pasadena. He talked on the development of music and accompanied his talk with selections on the piano. On April 10, at the third annual meeting, Mr. Powell associate architect of the South Pasadena Junior High School, gave an illustrated talk on European architecture. At the fourth meeting the constitution, drawn up by Comfort Higman, was adopted. The gold pin assembly, at which four-year honor students were presented with gold pins, was an impressive innovation, the pins usually being presented at com- mencement. Mr. Bush, in introducing the speaker. Professor Hardy of Occidental, spoke of what it means to be a four-year honor society student. Professor Hardy talked on the qualities requisite for scholarship — facts, a critical attitude of mind, an impersonal attitude, intellectual honesty, intellectual sincerity, a broad vocabulary, optimism, and hard work. One of the most brilliant affairs of the year was the Honor Society banquet, held at the Woman ' s Athletic Club in Los Angeles. The motif, Byrd ' s expedition to Antarctica, was followed out in the toasts and decorations. Committees for the banquet were as follows: Page Sixty ENTERTAINMENT AND MENU COMMITTEE Evangeline Sumner, chairman: Miss Hoag, faculty adviser; Ben Page, Robert Clelland, Katherine Bode, Virginia Avars.

Under the direction of Priscilla Scales, social chairman, the trembling ones were made to touch the snaky head of Medusa, squeeze the brain of Cicero, traverse Caesar ' s bridge across the Rhine, shake the icy hand of his corpse and finally ascend the heights of Mount Olympus «here the ' swore to revere eternally the students of ad anced Latin. A big accomplishment of the Comes Club was the successful program given for the classical section of the Teachers ' Institute, December 18, at the Belasco Theatre. It consisted of five tableaux, a slave dance, and a Greek dance. The tableaux were scenes from Greek and Roman mythology: the Pleiades, Amor and Psyche, the Three Fates, Niobe and her last daughter, and Aeneas, Anchises, and Ascanius leaving Troy. The Comes Club has fitted up a room in which to display the projects made by the Caesar classes. It contains models of buildings, and articles associated with Roman life. This year the project given the grand prize was a Greek theatre made by Johnson Glavis. Dan Hammock ' s Roman galleon, Evelyn Short ' s hut of Romulus, Douglas Guenther ' s bridge, and James Focht ' s catapult were awarded maxima cum laude, magna cum laude, cum laude and honorable mention, respectively. For the annual Roman banquet the cafeteria was transformed into a candle- lighted hall with ivy-twined pillars and heavily laden tables at which the guests re- clined on soft couches. They were entertained with readings from Caesar, Cicero, and Virgil, mythological tableaux, dancing, sleight of hand tricks, and two farces — A Classical Vamp and Seize Her — enacted b ' the Virgil and Caesar classes. OiScers of the club were Mary Graham, president ; Charlotte Pickering, vice- president ; Evangeline Brainard, secretary; and John Roome, treasurer. ■ Top Ronv: Sullwold, Teinpleton, Hiitchins.

Page Sixty-two THE SPANISH CLUB Horace Adams Helen Burr Presidents The year of ' 28 and ' 29, the third in the life of El Club Galdos, was one of real growth and development. The addition to the Spanish course of a fourth year class no doubt added con- siderably to the interest in the class work and the club. Officers who served from September to February were Hor- ace Adams, president; Helen Burr, vice-president; Fritzi Martin, secretary-treasurer. El Club Galdos has maintained a regular schedule of varied and interesting meetings. The October gathering was devoted to the initiation of fort - new members, on whom various tortures were inflicted in the basement of the North Building. The talk by Mr. Lacayos, lately of Nicaragua, but now teaching at the University of Southern California, on his impressions of the United States, was most amusing to native Amer- icans. Miss Price ' s clever Spanish adaptation of a play by Mark Twain, iComo se habla Espanol, proved excellent entertainment at another meeting. It was enacted by Barbara Halsey, Millicent Murdock, Bob Battles, Jackson ' oodruff, Fritzi Mar- tin, Eleanor Simon, and Lawrence Jenkins. At this meeting also, the two rival political parties, the Barceloneros and the Madrilenos, nominated candidates for the February election. Helen Burr, president ; Jane Speer, ice-president ; and Martha Baird, secretary-treasurer, were elected. This year the most important accomplishment of El Club Galdos was the furnish- ing of a Spanish reading room. Here, amidst colorful surroundings, members of the club may read Spanish books of various kinds — biographies, novels, histories, and folk- lore. w tr nw ir- MMR First Row: Brockmeier, Smith, Adams, Hummel, Lanham, W ' emrich, Dixon, Dix, Boiiine, Perry, Gregory, Mallery, Stick.

Page Sirty-tbrec LE CIRCLE FRANCAIS Ellen Gould President This year Le Circle Francais, through the interest of its members and the ability of its leaders, has proved an enjoyably instructive, constructive organization. The meetings each month, directed by Jane Traphagen, con- sisted of talks and dramatics. At the September meeting Miss Thomas described her recent European trip and showed unique souvenirs of Brittany and the Basque country. The club initiated its new members in October with pleasant games rather than with harrowing ceremonies. At the December meeting Margaret Chase, Chizuyo Tateishi, Lawrence Collins, Esther Pickering, and Mildred Sims gave Nous Verrons, a play dealing with the difficulty of English for the Frenchman. In January Miss Dorothy Connor of West- ridge School charmed the club with an illustrated talk on old Paris. In February, Charles Williams, Bob Keedy, Eunice Gripper, and Jane Traphagen gave Depuis Six Mois, a drama of French domestic life. The French banquet was held April 13 in the cafeteria. It was planned and supervised by Barbara Blackstone, Eleanor Clokey, Lois McLean, and Evangeline Sumner. The theme, a market day in Brittany, was carried out in costumes, decora- tions, and program. One feature was a Breton wedding, in which Charles Williams was the groom, Eunice Gripper the bride, and Charles Stanley, the godfather. Jane Traphagen, Margaret Pickering, and Bob Keedy gave Le Cuvier. The speaker of the evening was Professor Paul Bonnet of U. C. L. A. Professor H. R. Brush of U. C. L. A. was a guest. The officers of the French Club were Ellen Gould, president ; Chizuyo Tateishi, secretary; and Bob Keed , vice-president-treasurer.

This success has been due primarily to the eiiort and ability of IVIiss Foote. who has aroused in the students a keen interest in the drama and has kept on a high standard the work of the club. The Peter Pan Pla ers ' productions in 1928 and 1929 have been the Christmas program, The Travellers, Seven Keys to Baldpate, and A Kiss for Cinderella. Lawrence Collins President The Christmas program, presented by the Peter Pan Players in conjunction with the Glee Clubs, was simple and beautiful. The principal feature was a play by Dr. Hyde, The Nativity, depicting the birth of Christ. The characters w ere Two Women, Shepherds, Kings, Angels, and the Holy Family. The Peter Pan Players ' assembly program, given February 14, was Booth Tark- ington ' s farce, The Travellers. Carol O ' Conor, Mary Parslow, Charlotte Picker- ing, and Scott McLean played their parts particularly well. Seven Keys to Baldpate, George M. Cohan ' s dramatization of the melodrama by Earl Derr Biggers, was presented May 26, 1928, as the first Peter Pan Players ' evening production. It was warmly welcomed and will be remembered for the splen- did acting which was done by every member of the cast, and also for the stage set designed and built by the stage crew under the direction of Mr. Henry. Officers of the Peter Pan Players were chosen as follows: Lawrence Collins, presi- dent; Carol O ' Conor, vice-president; Gretchen Parker, secretary; and Martha Cun- ningham, treasurer.

Page Sixty-five THE STAMP CLUB The South Pasadena Philatelic Society is a select group of students interested in stamps. It was organized in January, 1928, with Redmond Coghlan as president and Miss Moore as faculty adviser. Mr. Adams has since taken Miss Moore ' s place. The purpose of this society is to encourage the collection, advance the study and exchange of postage and revenue stamps of the world, and increase the knowledge of the student con- cerning peoples and countries. Mary Francis Bean t i i i i i , • i i ,- Croxton Radford ' ' ' olds two meetmgs a month. At the hrst a pro- Presidents gram of speeches and student reports is presented, and at the second the members exchange stamps. On October 22, Dr. Edward C. Bull, curator of the Junior Museum, Exposition Park, Los Angeles, talked to the club on the educational value of stamp collecting. He showed exhibits of stamps made by boys, and some very rare stamps issued in commemoration of Franklin, Washington, and Lincoln. On March 20, the senior high school Philatelic Society entertained the junior high school stamp club. On this occasion Mr. Ira Clokey showed his valuable collection of stamps. Mr. Adams gave a talk on the highh pictorial stamps of the French Colonial period and showed his interesting stamp album. Before Miss Moore departed for Europe, the society gave a farewell part ' for her and presented her with a stamp album. The club subscribed to Scott ' s Monthly Journal. This company also publishes a stamp catalogue, a yearly publication which many of the club have found useful. First semester officers of the Philatelic Society were Mary Frances Bean, president; Croxton Radford, secretary-treasurer. The second semester Croxton Rad- ford was president and Mary Frances Bean was secretary-treasurer. Top Roii-: Croxton Radford, Alanson Eberhart, Robert Davis, Spencer Derby, Bob Watson.

O-oMJUjJ Oa a vj Vaj ytSX xj Page Sixty-six THE PENDRAGON CLUB Junior Grant President The Pendragon Club was organized at the beginning of the second semester to publish an English journal and to foster in- terest in English. It is named from the title given to ancient British kings. In March, officers for the jear were elected: president, Jun- ior Grant; vice-president, Croxton Radford; secretary, Arabella Childs; treasurer, Virginia Avars. The programs at the meetings, in charge of Mary Francis Bean, have followed the theme of King Arthur. Miss Bear spoke to the club on the Idylls of the King and the pictures they suggest. Miss Reed described Cornwall, the country of Arthur, in which she has spent some time. Mrs. Bennett talked interestingly on the costume of Arthur ' s period. Miss Potter brought many illustrated books of the Arthurian legends and showed each artist ' s different conception of Arthur. With the help of the school board the club has done a good deal towards furnish- ing its room. Curtains of heavy cretonne in an old English pattern have been made. The club holds its meetings about a round table similar to that of King Arthur. The first really big accomplishment of the Pendragon Club was its assembly program, presented May 9. The tableaux from Tennyson ' s The Idylls of the King and the music pla ed by the ensemble and Mr. Adams were to show the student body the beauty and interest of the work of the Pendragon Club. The pictures were Guinevere, The Marriage of King Arthur and Guinevere, King Arthur in His Hall, The Knight ' s Oath to King Arthur, Elaine, The Passing of Elaine, The Vision of the Holy Grail, and the Passing of Arthur. The development of the Pendragon Club this first year was largely due to the interest of Miss Perr , the sponsor and promoter of the organization.

Page Sixty-sez ' cn THE SENATE CLUB OtisBlasingham Ben Page Presidents The active members of the club are the students of the Speech Arts class. Meetings are held as open forum discussions in this class every Friday. The purpose of the organization is to gain a knowledge of parliamentary law, open forum discussion, and questions vital to the state, nation, community, and school. For its open forum discussions the Senate Club tries to secure prominent speakers to address the society on the question of the day. Last semester, Miss Bear spoke on her Europeon trip, dwelling particularly on the scenic beauty of the Rhine region. Mr. Driver discussed stocks and bonds and showed the value of them. Mr. Rowen, the city-manager of South Pasadena, talked on the possibilities in city-management as a career for young men. This semester the club was addressed by Mr. Daggett, Uncle John of K.H.J., who talked on the ora- torical endeavors of the Senate Club. One of the best enjoyed events of the year was the old clothes party given by the active members of the Senate Club for present members and alumni. AH guests came in costume. Those present at the party will remember the dear, quaint little old lady who turned out to be Allen Post, Miss Foote as the beautiful Directoire lady, and Evelyn Driver as Raggedy Anne, who took respectively, the prizes for the most eccentric, the most beautiful, and the best hard times costume. The Senate Club ' s annual banquet was held May 4 at the Lamanda Park Club- house. It proved as witty and mirthful an occasion as are all Senate Club banquets. The officers for the first semester were Otis Blasingham, president; Edward Plumb, vice-president ; Jeanetta Yerxa, secretary-treasurer. Those elected for the second semester were Benjamin Page, president; George Walker, vice-president; Jane Sexton, secretarv-treasurer.

Page Sixty-ciyht Luther Lee President QUILL AND SCROLL Quill and Scroll is the National Honorary Society for High School journalists. It was organized at Iowa City, April 10, 1926, by a group of high school supervisors, for the purpose of encouraging and rewarding individual achievement in journalism and in allied fields of creative work. There are now three hun- dred chapters in all parts of the United States, which represent the high schools outstanding in journalistic work. The official publi- cation is Quill and Scroll, published six times yearly. Those eligible to membership in Quill and Scroll are juniors and seniors in the upper third of their class who have done super- ior work in some phase of journalism. The South Pasadena chapter of Quill and Scroll was organized at the close of the school year of 1927 and 1928, with William Andrews, Harold Ritchie, John Al- man Jr., Hazel Tucker, Helen Wig, Hollys Krug, Oliver Brogdon, Comfort Hig- man, Gladys Goodsell as charter members. The first formal organization of the chapter was in April, 1929, when Luther Lee was elected president ; Vilton Adams, vice-president ; Evelyn Chase, secretary- treasurer ; and Ruth Johnson, sergeant-at-arms. Miss Rebecca Hayslip and Miss Ethel Bear are the faculty advisers for the chapter. The South Pasadena chapter of Quill and Scroll devoted its effort this year to establishing itself. The by-laws of the chapter were drawn up by Wilton Adams. Committees were formed with Marcus Godfrey chairman of the refreshment com- mittee; Barbara Balfour, chairman of the entertainment committee; and Madeleine Speik, chairman of the publicity committee.

Page Sixty- Ray Sparling President THE NATIONAL ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIP SOCIETY The South Pasadena chapter of the National Athletic Scholarship Society was organized in 1926. Since then fifty-five boys have acquired membership, twenty-eight of whom are now active. Membership is granted to boys who have earned their letter in a major sport and have for three previous semesters held their scholarship record higher than the average of the school. The purpose of the National Athletic Scholarship Societv is to foster high scholarship among boy athletes, to elevate the ideas of sportsmanship, and to develop more outstanding leaders in the secondary schools of the United States. The South Pasadena chapter has accomplished much toward this purpose. The scholar- ship of South Pasadena athletes has been raised each year. This year one-third of every team was in the N. A. S. The outstanding boy leaders of the school, the boy commissioners, the Boys ' League officers, and the class presidents are members of the National Athletic Scholarship Society. At the annual N. A. S. assembly presented in March, Coach Howard Jones of U. S. C, was the speaker. He talked on sportsmanship and its relation to the class- room and athletics. In April the South Pasadena N. A. S. held a stag dinner and theatre party in Los Angeles. The South Pasadena chapter of the N. A. S. is the advisory chapter for California. Nevada, Arizona and the Hawaiian Islands. Five of the Coast League schools — Glendale, Pasadena, Whittier, San Diego and South Pasadena — have chapters. Mr. Alman is faculty adviser and credit is due him for the progress the club has made. Through the efforts of William McAllister and Mr. Alman, the number of California chapters of N. A. S. has been quadrupled, one hundred high schools having joined the.N. A. S. since 1926. At an early meeting Ray Sparling was elected president ; Arnold Bode, vice- president ; and William McAllister, secretary-treasurer. Top Roiv: Sparling, Heartt.

I ' agr Sc-i ' oity Bob Martin President THE HI-Y The Hi-Y is an organization which deserves the greatest credit for its high ideals and the energetic way in which it tries to attain them. The purpose of the organization is to develop boys physically, mentalh ' , and spiritually. The club holds its meetings every Monday at the First Methodist Church of South Pasadena. The programs are varied. Speakers are heard on many dif- ferent subjects, and sometimes the boys go to the Pasadena ' . M. C. A. pool to swim. Speakers at the meetings have been Mr. Baker, principal of the junior high school, who spoke to the club on eastern and western education ; Howard Jones, of Occidental, who spoke on the helpfulness of the Hi-Y to the high school boy; Kenneth Holland, student body president of Occidental, who talked on the high ideals that high school students should try to attain. Coach Green and Dr. Speik have both talked several times on athletics. Ladies ' Nite, an innovation in the regular round of Hi-Y activities, was greatly enjoyed by the boys on February 9. The club, in company with its lady friends, saw The Skull at the President and afterwards went to Melody Lane. At the close of the football season the Hi- ' held a banquet for the football team. Coach Green was presented with a wallet by the ' - in token of their appreciation. Coach Nixon spoke on the qualities football stands for and what it has come to be. The Hi-Y sent Elliot Beideman as delegate to the state convention of Hi-Y clubs at Stockton, and Robert Martin, Ray Sparling, Otis Blasingham, Philips Mor- gan, Robert Heartt and Fred Weinrich as delegates to the Whittier Boys ' Conference to study and discuss questions vital to high school boys. The officers of the Hi-Y for 1928 and 1929 have been Bob Martin, president; Fred Weinrich, vice-president; Elliot Beideman, George Walker, secretary; Crichton. Brigham, treasurer.

Page Sc7 ' Cni ' -tzc( ' THE TIGER OLMYPIC CLUB Aerial Roath President The Tiger Olympic Club, a chapter of the Sportsmanship Brotherhood of America, was organized in 1928 by Emmett Fry and Gordon Ernst. It was started as an athletic club with a charter membership of six: Robert McCue, Herbert Montgomery, Thaddeus Creswell, Elliot Avery, Gordon Ernst, and Emmett Fr . Mr. Green was sponsor and faculty adviser. The club has the honor of being the first chapter of the Sportsmanship Brotherhood in California. It is a national organ- ization with chapters in many colleges and high schools through- out the East and Middle West. It also charters athletic clubs in all parts of the country. It is controlled by a directory board of thirty-three members composed of such men as Franklin D. Roosevelt, Governor of New York ; John L. Griffith, Commissioner of the Big Ten Football Conference : Dr. John J. Tigert, former Commissioner of Education in the United States, and other influential men of the sporting and business world. Their aim is to spread .sportsmanship and athletics throughout the world. The Tiger Olympic Club is made up of fellows who have taken part in school activities. To become a member, one must be eligible for athletic competition and must go out for at least one sport a year. If a person makes a letter in some sport or is O.K.ed by Mr. Green because of faithful work, he also is eligible for mem- bership. There are now a total of twenty-six members in the club. The officers are elected at the beginning of each school semester. Those for the spring semester. 1928, were Aerial Roath, president ; Thaddeus Creswell, vice-president ; John Roome, sec- retary ; and Elliot A er , treasurer. There are also several minor offices.

Page Sei ' ettty-three Industry holds full sway in the South building shops. Madeleine Speik Kohcrl Martin Jaiict Wilson Gordon Clark Marcus Godfrey Barbara Balfour Luther Lee SEVEN TIGERS These seven seniors liave been chosen as the ones who best represent the Tiger spirit and the ideals for which it stands. This year it was particularly difficult for the committee to select only seven since so many members of the Class of ' 29 have given their best to their Alma Mater during the past four years. Scholarship, leadership, and athletics have all been taken into consideration ; all-arniiiid superiority is the basis of selection. . . Madeleine Speik, while upholding excellent scholarship, has been commissioner of publicity, president of the Comes Club, a member of the Girls ' League cabinet, a par- ticipant in the senior play, and a member of the Tiger staff. Bob Martin, besides being president of the Student Body, has been prominent in the Peter Pan Players, the S Club, the Senate Club, the Glee Club, and the Hi-Y. Among Marcus Godfrey ' s athletic activities, football, basketball, and track are important. He had a major part in Green Apples and the lead in Quality Street. He was commissioner of finance. Among Janet Wilson ' s activities stand notably presidency of the Girls ' League, and prominerice in girls ' athletics and the Latin Club. At the same time she holds a four-year Honor Society record. Gordon Clark is always thought of where Tigers are mentioned, being a leader and all-around fine fellow. In his sophomore year he was president of the class. He stands preeminent in athletics, and has been president of the S Club. Barbara Balfour has held Honor Society membership four years, has been secre- tary of the Junior Class, a member of the Latin Club for four years, and one year on the Tiger staflf. Above all her work as editor-in-chief of Copa de Oro has entitled her to a place among the seven select. Luther Lee, as business manager of A Kiss for Cinderella and Quality Street, distinguished himself as a hard, efficient worker. His executive ability was shown on the Tiger staff, as treasurer of the Junior Class, and in the Quill and Scroll.

VOCATIONS In this age of industrial progress the minds of the young people of the educated world are forever turning toward the future and wondering what their place in life will be. It is fitting, therefore, that this book, a record of the events of the past year, has as its theme, Vocations, and endeavors to show huw the work of this year has helped to train us for our various callings. By depicting light flashing on the buildings of this school and then focusing on some industr , the art staff has tried to explain on the division pages how the knowl- edge received here influences our later life. For instance, the training acquired in the auditorium helps those interested in a stage career to get their start. By the use of searchlights, shadow effects, and other devices to display the great strength and power symbolic of these times, the art work helps to carry out the industrial theme. A dynamo representing the student-body is pictured on the page preceding the administration. Just as the master-mechanic stands at the switchboard of this machine, ever on the alert to adjust any slight imperfection which, though seemingly trivial, may stop the whole machine, so the faculty with untiring care stands ready to guide and encourage every student during his four years at high school. A good example of light and shadow figures is the page preceding the school life section. Several new features have been added this year to South Pasadena High School ' s already adequate facilities for vocational preparation. Foremost among these was the intertype machine, the purpose of which has enalbed the students to print The Tiger. A course in weaving has been made possible by installation of weaving looms. Besides affording the study of academic subjects which enable students to choose their life work more quickly, and spend more time in specialization in college, the high school offers many courses for training along special lines such as domestic science, journalism, machine shop, art, and dramatics. These studies form the background for the activities of which this book is a record. — The Editor.

THE TIGER This year for the first time the Tiger was printed in the school print shop, the student body having bought an intertype, flat-bed press, and sufficient type for head- lines. The money from the A. S. B. budget that usually goes to the Tiger fund was used to pay the first installment on the equipment, the advertising taking care of all the remaining expenses of the paper. Under the direction of Mr. Ben R. Henry for a part of the year, and Mr. V. ' . Vanderlip, printing instructor at the junior high school, the students in the print shop and the Saturday morning class have put out the Tiger each week. The intertype was operated by students from the Frank Wiggins Trade School. The editor and business manager attended the fall meeting of the Southern Cali- fornia High School Press Association in Compton, November 2. In the fall com- petition managed by the Association the Tiger took first place in front page make-up, news, and editorial writing — three out of a possible five first places in Class A. The spring convention of the association was held at Metropolitan High School in Los Angeles. The editor and business manager were the delegates. Four special editions of the paper came out during the year. The traditional edition preceding the Thanksgiving game was under the editorship of Marcus God- frey and the sport editor, Paul Stone. The Wild Tiger was published March 22 with Evelyn Chase, as editor, the Junior edition. May 22, and the Senior edition, June 13, Class Day. Following the plan instituted last year, the beginning class in journalism, made up of juniors, acted as reporters and supplied much of the copy. The advertising staff was a.ssisted during the second semester by members of this class, so that they might become familiar with the work for next year. A great deal of credit for the timely and capable editing of the Tiger is due to Miss Hayslip, who was always ready and willing to help the staff. With the printing of the paper an extra load has been placed on the print crews, and much credit goes to them for their splendid cooperation.

ORATORICAL CONTEST South Pasadena High School has entered the National Oratorical Contest each year since its inception six years ago. This year thirty-seven students tried out, every one in the public speaking class and anyone else that wished to do so. The orations were presented in the speech auditorium before Miss Foote, who held second try-outs to choose the six students who would take part in the assembly try-out. The six chosen to speak in the assembly, April 4, were Charles Mulholland, Benjamin Page, Robert Heartt, Robert Ryan, Victor Bellerue, and Winston Trever. Here, judged by Professor Ben Lindsey of Occidental, Charles Mulholland, with his oration, Our Constitution, the Exemplificati on of Public Opinion, won first place ; Benjamin Page, speaking on Woodrow Wilson and the Constitution, took second ; Winston Trever, with the topic Alexander Hamilton and the Constitution, was third ; and Robert Ryan with his oration entitled Lincoln and the Constitution took fourth. These four boys delivered their addresses again April 12 at Whittier in the district finals. Charles Mulholland won fifteen dollars by taking second place and Benjamin Page won fourth place. Throughout this country newspapers are sponsoring this contest to interest stu- dents in the Constitution. There is a wide field from which to choose the subjects, but they must all be on some phase of the Constitution. Students participating in the contest not only receive valuable information on the Constitution, but also obtain training in speaking correctly in public. To conduct the contest systematically, Southern California has been divided into districts. The winners of the respective districts meet at a designated place and the three winning orations are chosen. Elimination contests are held until the national finals are reached at Washington. The orators who are chosen for first, second, or third place in any contest from the district finals receive cash prizes ranging from five to one hundred dollars. The trip and expenses of those going to Washington are paid. For four years there have been international contests ; the one this year is to be held in South America.

THE LIBRARY CLASS The library class this year was divided into two groups — the advanced class and the beginning class. The advanced class was made up of those who had started last February. Several of these, having completed their work in February, received a half credit for an hour a day spent in work at the Junior High School, helping the librarian there in organizing her work. The library class met once a week for recitation and the rest of the time was spent in practice. Twice during the school year each girl in the class had complete charge of the bulletin board, when she would post news items of interest, humorous stories, and pictures of interest. Each one of the class took her turn in taking charge of the library before school and checking in the returned books. Noon and after school duty was carried on in the same way. The iibrary girls ' principal duty is the care of the books. At the beginning of the year there were many new books to be catalogued, the numbers painted on their backs, and the whole book painted with lacquer to protect it. Through the year torn and mutilated books were mended. The study of library craft began with instruction upon the care of the library and the books. The history of books, printing, bookbinding and libraries was traced from its beginning to the present day. Printing houses and private book collections were visited by the class. It was required of each girl that she be accurate, neat, patient and diligent, and that she have an interest in her work. Various projects were worked out during the year, such as a book map of California, cataloguing of the lives and works of famous artists, and collecting of special material. It is the aim of the librarian to make the library a pleasant, comfortable, con- venient reference room for earnest students. Flowers were kept in the librar - the first semester by the Boys ' League. The clipping catalogue has been kept up to date and the library class has constantly endeavored to make all material conveniently available to the students.

THRIFT SAVINGS Following the same plan in thrift-saving as was used last year, the high school set aside one day each week for banking. Every Wednesday second period a cashier chosen by the class received the deposits for the students, took the money to Mrs. Linn, and attended to the other necessary details. Grace Chatfield acted as head cashier this year, assisting Mrs. Linn, who was in charge of the banking at high school. February 20, the highest amount, $494, was banked by the students. On an average, $250 was banked each week, $6,000 having been deposited during the year. About 484 out of the student body of 680 banked each week. Among the seven public schools in South Pasadena the high school has usually been sixth in percentage of deposits each week, having a percentage throughout the year of 76.5 of the students present on banking days. Miss Kate Meek ' s class, with Robert Clelland as cashier, had one hundred per cent every banking day during the year. Following is a tabulation of the classes, cashiers, and number of times the classes were one hundred per cent in banking at the time the annual went to press: Adams-Swartzkopf - - - 14 Bear-Andrews ----- 6 Bickford-Mitchell 12 Bennett-McLean - - - - 6 Carpenter-Lanham - - - 16 Childs-Weldon - 14 Davis-Thompson - - - - 4 Farrar- Jones ------ 11 Hill-Tate - 12 Hoag-Lieber ------ 19 Kranz-Blasingham - - - 1 1 Page Eighty-four Lauman-Burbank - - - - 4 Linn-Chatfield 22 Meek-Clelland 22 Moore-Corrigan - - - - 9 N ash-Simon ------ 18 Perry-Hinchliffe Price-McEniry - Slykhous-Brown Swart-SuUwold ----- 3 Thomas-Johnson - - - - 9 Wood-Conrad ----- 4 I ; Jh ji - .. l JL - A- u f U Top Roic: Fink, CJrider, Collins.

STAGECRAFT AND STAGE CREW The stagecraft class was created to meet the demands of school activities for costumes and scenery for hanquets, plays, and assemhlies. It gives the students who are interested in the production of a play and the method and theory of economic costuming an opportunity to do some actual work. Econom - and the fundamental principles of art are stressed in the work. The class this year was divided into two sections — properties and costumes. The costume division, under Marjorie Thompson and Rosine Ricker for the first and second semesters, respectively, designed and created all costumes, kept the equipment in order, and checked costumes in and out for renting pur poses. The money which was received from the rentals was used in purchasing new materials. The students of the costume section received valuahle experience this ear in designing and executing the period costumes for the senior play, Quality Street. The property committee, headed by Helen Hoblit for the first semester and Evelyn Sager for the second semes- ter, took charge of all articles dealing with the plays, such as curtains, furniture, and other properties. The stage crew was unusual in that it was a veteran crew, having had experience under the fine guidance of Mr. Henry. It was indeed fortunate this year in having as an adviser and co-worker Miss Lauman. The crew was kept busy building sets and painting them, and keeping the stage in readiness for plays and assemblies. The crew was divided into the following groups: Stage manager ----- Assistant Grid manager ■ Assistant Carpenter - Assistants House manager Assistant Electrician Assistant Gordon Ernst Clarence Fink - Arthur Grider - Bob McCue - Ralph Wilcox Royal Olsen and Bruce Parsons Harold Trump Gordon Vatcher John Merrihew Lawrence Collins Page Eighty-fii ' C BOOKSTORE ASSISTANTS Ufa Claire Allison, Eric Kampenborg, Evelyn Sager, Mr. Wood, Ocie Minear, Marcus Godfrey.

DEBATE South Pasadena has been fortunate in having Miss Amy R. Foote as debate director for the past four years. This year she inaugurated a new plan in having two non-decision debates with Huntington Park. Robert Ryan and Burton Froom com- posed the first team which debated the question, Resolved: That modern adver- tising is socially detrimental. Mary Wig and Arden Lanham, the second team, spoke on, Resolved: That the United States should construct and operate the Boulder Dam. The advertising team met defeat at Inglewood on January 11, and the Boulder Dam team was defeated at Belmont on February 8 ; the rebuttal was not counted in the Belmont debate. A victory was gained March 10, when Phillip Morgan and Arden Lanham defeated Monrovia. Citrus and Compton high schools were scheduled for late in Ma -. INTERCLASS DEBATES The freshmen, Margaret Sullwold and Dorothy Walker, were defeated by the sophomores, Gordon McFarland and Dick Burgess, on the question, Resolved: That the United States should join the international copyright union. The class of ' 29, although it holds a cup for three consecutive victories, was defeated by the juniors, Teanetta ' erxa and Horace Adams. Seniors-Freshman Sophomores Juniors Page Ninety-one I Mrs. J. A. Probst Director THE ROMANTIC AGE Three plays of a whimsical nature have been presented this year, two of which were written by Sir James M. Barrie. A. A. Milne, too, has earned his name as a whimsical writer by several plays and children ' s books. The Romantic Age was a success, as were the two other plays of more or less the same type, prov- ing that productions of this nature are liked by high school audi- ences. The juniors presented their play, directed by Mrs. J. A. Probst, on Januari,- 26. Melisande Knowles, played by Margaret Jillson, believes that since the age of chivalry died out centuries ago, no romance of her ideal type can be found in the present day. She wishes for a lover, an ardent, typical knight, and grows despondent when each day brings her no nearer to the realization of her dreams. One day, however, she sees on the other side of her garden wall a handsome person, dressed as Launcelot of old. They speak, and fall in love. All seems happy for Melisande. Later her dream is shattered, for she discovers her lover is only a commonplace stock exchange broker. Detesting domestic and worldly things, she is hurt and dazed. At last she learns through the love of Gervase Mallory, played by Arthur Lavagnino, that even the stock exchange can be entrancing and that we too live in a romantic age. Besides the two princpials in the cast, there were seven other students in the play whose work is to be commended. All of the roles in The Romantic Age are difficult, as they are of unusual types. For example, Croxton Radford, to portray the typical English father had to make a careful study of English mannerisms in both speech and actions. Helen Hoblit, as Melisande ' s mother, had to convey the idea of a fussy, supposedly invalid mother. Besides the main plot, the love story of Melisande and Gervase, there is the equally complicated romance of Jane Baggot and Bobby Coote. Jane knows of Bobby ' s love for Melisande, and that he has been rejected by Melisande. In her efforts to win him, she commits blunder after blunder, merely making Bobby love Melisande the more. At length, Bobb - loves Jane, partly through the efforts of the old hermit. Gentleman Suzan, who continually philosophizes on married life. Ernie was the little peasant boy, and Alice, the maid of the household. Every member of the cast acted his character part well. In every play there are people who, though not on the stage, deserve credit for the time and work given to the production of the play. The production staff of the junior play was composed of two property managers, Elizabeth Stanton and Maryed Purrucker. Virginia Warren and Margaret Pickering, student directors, assisted Mrs. Probst. Miss Lauman had charge of the art work and stage settings. Page Ninety-two .. f Those teachers and students who ' did work of a more technical nature, such as the actual stage work, deserve credit also. A high school production requires a vast amount of work not usualh ' thought of by the audience who views the play, just as a real theatre has its regular staff of workers for every produc- tion. Besides the director, student directors and propertv managers, who have been men- tioned, the staff consisted of the following: Class Teacher - - - Miss Myrtle Farrar Class President ------ Peter Dix Printing ----- Mr. Ben R. Henry Production Manager - Miss Hester Lauman Assistants ------ Ann Bess Vogel Elinor Schmidt Business Manager - - - Philip Corrigan Advertising Manager - - - Ernest Simons Stage Manager ----- Gordon Ernst Electricians - - - Herbert Heintzelman John Merrihew Grid Manager - - - - Clarence Fink . H e lire still here. Tlie dream goes on. The orchestra, as at all plays, contributed the overture and music between acts. Their program for The Romantic Age was the following: March Aeronaut - Jackson Paradise -------- Zamecnik (Between Acts I and II) Selections from Faust - - - - Gounod (Between Acts II and III) Lustpiel Overture ----- Keler Bela Old Timers Waltz ------ Lake Oo! ' ad my breakfast. Page Nincty-three Go tiii;ay, you l-mi. and ii.ul improving books. QUALITY STREET The play, Quality Street, by Sir James Barrie, requires clever and versatile acting. The senior class, who presented the play on April 6, accomplished the inter- pretation so well that the play has been called one of the biggest successes in years. Mrs. J. A. Probst directed, and overcame splendidly the handicap of having the cast changed, owing to the illness of several members. Phoebe Throssel is a sweet, prim young woman, who fears more than anything else that she may be unladylike. Her elder sister Susan is one of the same nature. When Phoebe meets the dashing Valentine Brown, she falls in love and hopes he returns the feeling. Valentine visits the sisters often and learns to call the quaint old house in Quality Street home. The war calls Valentine away, and he says farewell to Phoebe, without revealing whether he loves her or not. The money he has invested for the sisters is almost entirely lost, and the - are forced to keep a school. Poor Phoebe of the ringlets hides her hair in a cap, and tries to grow old as quickly as possible. Although humor enters with antics of their pupils, pathos is felt in the wasted lives of these two really Aoung women. H ' e never mention liim. At last in a dramatic scene, Valentine confesses it is Phoebe he has loved all the time, not the flirting Miss Livy, and the play ends with his declaration to the once again young Phoebe of the ringlets. The sets of Quality Street were especially lovely. The little blue room in the first and third acts had hand-blocked wall paper of blue and white, made entirely b - Scott McLean.

ORCHESTRA The orchestra this year was fortunate in not having to begin the 1929 season under the loss of so many veteran players as did the orchestra of the preceding year. Eleven members from last year ' s second section orchestra were back again this year, and several students from the second section were advanced. Mr. Kranz had all in all, a well-organized and experienced group with which to begin work. New violins and flutes were added in September, and two entirely new instru- ments were introduced, a trombone and a bass viol. Both of these additions were help- ful in making a well rounded organization, and one capable of playing more difficult selections. Mr. Kranz chose, therefore, for one of the year ' s repetoire operatic music which was both educational and interesting. No popular music was played by the first section group, although several marches were used for lighter numbers. The orchestra played at four out of si.x of the lectures given by the Oneonta Club, an honor which proved that the group is appreciated by the community for its fine work. At each of these lectures, the members had to play for a half hour preceding the lecture before a critical audience, and they lived up to their reputation by playing confidently and masterfully. The graduation music, with the traditional March Pontificate was rendered by the orchestra. At both the junior and the senior class plays, and at the Peter Pan Players ' night play, the group played the overture and inter-act selections. At the Mothers ' Day assembly and for several other school assemblies the orchestra con- tributed a part. For the musical revue, held on April 27, the number of players was augmented to thirty-five, as the occasion demanded the best possible playing that could be given. Two numbers opening the program were presented. As has been mentioned, Mr. Kranz chose for the heavier numbers of the orchestra grand opera selections. Carmen by Bizet, Gounod ' s Faust, and Wagner ' s Tann- hauser were the three operas on which the most time was spent. From the light operas selections were chosen from Bohemian Girl by Balfe, the Student Prince by Rom- berg, and the Prince of Pilsen by Luders. Many Victor Herbert favorites, as pieces from Naughty Marietta and The Fortune Teller were pla ed. Page Ninety-six Top Roic: Corley, Trump, James, Tustiion. Xlckerson. Second Rois: McKee, Sharpe, L.

STRING AND WIND ENSEMBLES Ever since the ensemble idea was introduced into the school several years ago, it has increased in popularity. The music students who are more advanced have an opportunity for playing under the more individual instruction of Mr. Kranz and for appearing in public many times throughout the year. The fact that one group, the string ensemble, plays classical numbers and the other group, the wind ensemble, plays popular numbers, makes many organizations in the school and in the city desire the services of either ensemble to enliven their various functions. A glance at the numbers in the repetoire of the string ensemble gives some idea of their broad capabilities in classical interpretation. Valse des Fleurs from Tschaikow- sky ' s Nutcracker Suite and Liebastraum, by Lizst, are both selections aptly suited to a group possessing several violins and a harp. Tschaikowsky ' s Chanson Triste is of the same type. As a contrast, Mr. Kranz chose Grieg ' s Norwegian Dance and the merry Turkish March of the Master Beethoven. In still another vein is the famous Prelude in C sharp minor, by Rachmaninoff, and the Polonaise Militaire of Chopin. Excerpts from Shubert ' s Unfinished Symphony completed the string ensemble ' s excellent list. Among the places where the stringed orchestra played were a Y. M. C. A. dinner on January 21, a Kiwanis luncheon on February 6, an Oneonta Club dinner on March 11, and an American Legion affair on April 11. The wind ensemble, owing to the popular nature of the selections it played, was tasked to play again this year at the Rialto theatre benefit staged by the junior class and the modern language department, and at the South Pasadena-Inglewood debate, the Pasadena Kiwanis club, the girls ' play da -, and a Masonic program given at the junior high school. Several assemblies, too, including the Peter Pan Players ' and Thanksgiving assembly, had the ensemble on their programs. For the first time the wind ensemble was asked to play at Pasadena at the Me- morial Park. This experience in public appearance proved successful and beneficial to the members of the group. Some of the numbers played this year were marches, but most were the better popular pieces, as Marie, The Song I Love, Once in a Lifetime, Roses of ' esterdav, and similar selections.

GIRLS ' GLEE CLUB Socials, held once a month at the home of the various members of the Club this year, proved successful in that they afforded the girls a good time and united them in a more organized spirit. Miss Germain and the club officers — Peggy Reach, presi- dent ; Virginia Warren, vice-president ; Elaine Baldwin, secretary ; and Jane Speer, treasurer — sponsored these meetings and all other activities. On November 15 the new girls ' senior trio, composed of Elizabeth Merrill, Mary Stringfellow, and Margaret Woodward, sang at the senior assembly. They were received well, and commenced favorably their popular career as a trio. Mothers ' Day, December 6, both boys ' and girls ' glee clubs performed. The girls sang three Chinese Mother Goose rhymes, which pleased with their whimsicality. At the Christmas program the chorus was angels, set against a starry blue back drop. More Christmas carols were sung at the Methodist Church on December 23. The day after Christmas a program was given at a Kiwanis luncheon. The Junior high school heard the Senior high school Girls ' Glee Club for the first time on January 14. Then on February 19 the club and senior trio were included in the first Girls ' League exchange assembly with Alhambra, and were received splendidly there. On March 6 the club sang at the Woman ' s Clubhouse, and on May 18, at another Kiwanis Club luncheon. As can be seen several long pauses were taken between programs. In these inter- vals new songs were rehearsed, and work done on the combined boys and girls ' musical program presented April 27. Some of the best-liked songs sung by the Glee Club this year were the before mentioned Chinese Mother Goose rhymes which were What the Old Cow Said, The Old Woman, and While Baby is Sleeping ; Fallen Leaf, and In the Boat. The trio specialized more in popular selections such as Ten Little Miles from Home, but Fulfillment, and Indian Dawn were equally appreciated.

BOYS ' GLEE CLUB Joe Parmenter was elected president of the Boys ' Glee Club for 1928-29, with Roy Nordenson as vice-president, John McClure as secretary-treasurer, Elliott Avery as business manager, and Dale Roe as librarian. At an early September meeting, Miss Germain announced her plans concerning songs, and outlined the singing schedule as far as it had been made. A new system was used this year to eliminate uncertainty as to time and place of the monthl - social meetings. The club was divided into groups of three boys each, each divsion drawing a card bearing a certain date. In this way the organization knew in advance its hosts for ensuing socials. Toward the middle of the year the entire club had luncheon in Los Angeles and saw Rose Marie, the musical comedy. The first program was given for the P. T. A. on October 15. Practice for Christ- mas numbers and the musical revue occupied the time until December 6, Mothers ' Day, when the club sang in honor of the visitors, I Want a Girl. The boys ' senior trio, composed of Bob Martin, Joe Parmenter, and John McClure, took the part of the Three Kings in the annual Christmas pageant. The trio and club entertained the Junior High on March 11. Shortly afterwards the trio alone gave a program at the I. O. O. F. lodge. March 19, the Alhambra Boys ' League exchange assembly was held, part of the program including the club and trio. Some of the trio ' s songs have been Where is the Song of Songs for Me, Red- skin, Down by the Old Mill Stream, Ol ' Man River, Avalon Town, King for a Day, The Best Things in Life Are Free, Roll Along Cowboy, and Dry Yo ' Eyes. ' ' Several school assembly programs have been presented b - the club this year, and a Kiwanis luncheon program honoring the basketball team. Much credit is due Miss Germain for her directorship of the singing clubs of the school. The boys showed particularly good training in their presentation of Cleo- patra, a burlesque on college life. Joe Parmenter, Bob Martin, Otis Blasingham, Charles Mulholland, and Victor Bellerue played the leading roles. Page Ninety-nine MUSICAL REVUE The musical organizations used an entirely new plan this year for their annual evening entertainment given in the auditorium. Instead of the usual three-act opera, Mr. Adams and Miss Germain decided upon a shorter musical play, and some other form of musical entertainment which would appeal to everyone. Judging from the success of the revue, held April 27, the plan proved to be a wise one. The program opened with two selections played by the orchestra directed by Mr. Kranz. A burlesque, Cleopatra, was next presented by the Boys ' Glee Club. Joseph Parmenter played Cleopatra and Victor Bellerue her lover. The farce, a burlesque on college life, was extremely humorous. A program of a more serious nature followed. The Girls ' Glee Club, assisted by the dancing section of the girls ' athletic department .presented a history of American music. Miss Dix had charge of the dancing in the absence of Miss King. Starting with Indian songs, the earliest music of the American continent, the Girls ' Glee Club traced the history to modern days. Puritan songs followed the Indian melodies, and pioneer songs the Puritan airs. The dark days of the Civil War had their characteristic melodies, as did the negroes of that period, with their weird and plaintive songs. End- ing with the Vorld War, the song cycle was complete. Another purpose of the revue was to show the relationship of old music and new, and particularly between old classic forms and the modern semi-classic type. Many of the queer syncopations used today are found in the Negro and Indian melodies of yesterday-. The Glee Club showed this relationship in a convincing manner. The dances, too, were an important part of the entertainment. For the occasion, interesting stage settings were constructed, including large stairways of futuristic architecture down which the dancers descended in their lovely costumes. Spanish dances, Indian dances, and other dance motifs were used to illustrate the various influences which have worked upon America ' s music. I Page One Hundred SEVEN KEYS TO BALDPATE The Peter Pan Players presented George M. Cohan ' s Seven Keys to Baldpate on May 26, last year, too late to secure a place in the 1928 Copa de Oro, but on account of the excellency of the production and the fact that so many students, now seniors, were in the cast, the staff felt it deserves mention here. Elizabeth Andrews played Mary Norton, the young newspaper-woman ; Laramee Haynes took the part of the author, who, betting a thousand dollars he could write a best seller in twenty- four hours, came to lonely Baldpate Inn in the dead of winter to do it. Blanche Worth and Herbert Sharp were the innkeepers, and Robert Sutton was the owner of the inn. The crooks involved in the plot were portrayed by Alice Vidman, Robert Mar- tin, Marcus Godfrey, Lawrence Collins, and Phillips Morgan. Martha Cunningham was the beautiful Mrs. Rhodes; Preston Plumb, the ghost; and William Andrews, Gordon Clark, and Burton Froom were the sheriff and two policemen respectively. After mystery upon mystery had been built up, the audience was completely sur- prised when McGee suddenh- declared the whole plot only that of the story he had been writing upstairs. Thus the characters, even Mary Norton, with whom he had fallen in love, were fictitious. The play ended with the epilogue, where McGee fin- ished his work and won his bet. A KISS FOR CINDERELLA A Kiss for Cinderella, by Sir James M. Barrie, was an excellent choice for the players, as the cast was large enough to give every member a part. In the play given May 25, Catherine Austin played Cinderella, and Lawrence Collins the police- man who found her guilty of taking boards to make beds for four little girls she was harboring in Vorld War time. Little Sara Austin, Anne Pickering, Barbara Sharp and Coralee Burson were children. Charles Mulholland was Mr. Bodie, Evelyn Chase, Mrs. Maloney ; Herbert Sharp, the man; Vinchell Simpson, the gentleman; and Bernice Eddy, the godmother. The second scene was the beautiful dream ball conceived in Cinderella ' s quaint and whimsical manner. Robert Martin and Virginia Ayars were king and queen, Scott McLean, Lord Mayor, and Edward Pierce, Lord Times. John Baxter censored the hapeless beauties, who were Ruth Rogers, Blanche Worth, Berniece Eddy, Barbara Halsey, Elaine Baldwin, Mary Kerr, Elizabeth Andrews, Margaret Woodward, Waldene Lingle, Jane Speer, Ellen Gould, and ALirtha Burkett. Courtiers and pages were Janet Wilson, Evelyn Pollard, Phillips Morgan, Carol O ' Conor, Mary Louise Lewis, Burton Froom, Margaret Galbraith, and Vinchell Simpson. From this gorgeous ball, a triumph for the Players, little Cinderella found herself in the hospital, starved for food and human affection. Cheerful to the last, she won the hearts of everyone, including her big clumsy policeman. Barbara Halse was the probationer ; Martha Cunningham, Dr. Bodie ; l Lartha Burkett, the maid ; and Gordon Clark, Danny.

VARSITY FOOTBALL The Varsity football team for 1928 was one of the most suc- cessful that South Pasadena has had in several seasons. Under the leadership of Coach Green, the Tiger gridiron warriors made a record that made them recognized throughout the Coast League as a powerful team. The season was started with only four lettermen returning: Heartt, Grider, Sutton, and Clark. An excellent pre-season pre- paration, including several Afeeks at Ta-Ta-Pochom training camp, put the squad in good shape. When final results were tabulated, the Tigers were in third place with three wins, one tie, and three losses. Crichton Brigham was trainer, and Horace Adams, manager. Charles Williams was elected captain for the coming year. Amplifiers on the field furnished by Mr. Reach of a local electric company, helped spectators follow the games better. Glendale 8 — South Pas. ' dexa South Pasadena ' s first game on her new turf field was a game of fumbles in which Glendale seemed to get more than her share of the breaks. In the first quarter Glen- dale blocked a punt near the Tiger goal line and recovered the ball on the nine-yard line. Although South Pasadena fought hard, the Dynamiters managed to shove the ball across. The second tally came in the fourth quarter, when Glendale recovered a bad pass from center, back of the goal line, and made a safety. Pasadena 6 — South Pasadena This game was later counted as a win for South Pasadena when Pasadena was required to forfeit many of her games. It was a very exciting encounter, nevertheless, and until the last quarter it looked as though South Pasadena were doped to win. The Tigers had the ball in Pasadena ' s territory most of the time, and were outplaying the Bulldogs in every way until the rivals got the ball near our goal and made a touch- down. I I ' agc One Ilitudrcd Six Saxta Ana 19 — South Pasadena The Tiger varsity dropped the Santa Ana game because of the wonderful playing of Reboin, Saint star, backed by a strong, well-balanced line. Santa Ana ' s team took second place in Coast League laurels. Long Beach 12 — South Pasadena 13 The first Tiger victory of the year came when Long Beach suffered a 12 to 13 defeat on the South Pasadena field. The feature of the game was the wonderful passing attack of the Tigers. The first score for South Pasadena came when a forty- eight yard pass from McCue to Blasingham was completed in the second quarter. Conversion was made with a pass from Mathews to Sparling. In the fourth quarter a pass from McCue to Sparling put the Tigers in the lead. Whittier 12 — South Pasadena 12 The Tigers ' improvement of the week before was again shown when they tied the Whittier Poets. The first blood for the Tigers came in the opening minutes of play. Clark ran the kick-off back thirty yards, and several short runs made it a touch- down for South Pasadena. The Tigers were not quite so good in the next quarter, when Whittier made both of its point, but in the fourth quarter a pass from Mat- thews to Clark, and a short run by Clark, evened the score. The sun-down rule cut the game short, with the Tigers having the ball on Whittier ' s ten-yard line. San Diego 13 — South Pasadena 14 By showing an unusual amount of fight the varsity defeated the strong San Diego team in one of the most exciting encounters of the season. The scoring for the Tiger team began in the second quarter when, by an alternate passing and running attack, Clark and Matthews took the ball forty-one yards for a touchdown. Conversion was made with a pass from ALitthews to Sparling. The other touchdown was made in the same way. Alha.mbra 45 — South Pasadena 13 South Pasadena ' s varsity lost to the Alhambra Moors for the second time in the history of the two schools. Alhambra was finally rated as unofficial Southern Califor- nia champions. Orv Mohler, one of the best backs ever seen in California prep school ranks, made all the touchdowns for the Moors. In the last quarter. Best grabbed an Alhambra fumble and on the next play Clark, after receiving a pass from Matthews, ran fifty-one yards for a touchdown. A pass from McCue to Sparling made the other Page One Hundred Sc- ' en Otis Blasingham Peter Dix Charles Williams Bob Fry Lawrence Collins VARSITY LETTERMEN Otis Blasingham — Oats played end, and was often on the receiving end of passes. Although this was his first year of varsity, he was one of the most valuable men on the squad. He played best against Long Beach. Peter Dix — Pete played well in the Whittier and Fullerton games. His posi- tions were tackle and guard. He is returning next year and should be one of the main stays of a strong line. Captain-elect Charles Williams — Cupid, who played center, was one of the best defensive men on the squad. He played defensive full. On the offensive his passes from center were always well-placed and good. Robert Fry — Bob, playing at both end and half, was one of the best reserve men on the squad. His best game was against Santa Ana. He will be returning to the squad next year. Lawrence Collins — Larry at guard made himself known in the Santa Ana contest. He was unfortunately injured early in the season in a practice game with Muir Tech and was unable to participate again in League competition. Joseph Parmenter — Joe, a fullback, was the best kicker on the squad, his punts averaging around forty ards. In the middle of the season he suffered an injur and was unable to play much after that. Captain Arthur Grider — Art, who pla ed tackle for the third year, was selected for all-coast league honors. His weight made it hard for an opposing lineman to get past him. His best games were against Santa Ana and Alhambra. Paul Osgood — Ozy was one of the little fellows who made up in fight what he lacked in weight. He played in the backfield and always made himself felt by the opposing teams. He was at his best in the Whittier game. Raymond Sparling — Ray was one of the best defensive men in the Coast League and one of the most valuable men on the squad. Receiving passes was his specialty, several of which won games for South Pasadena. Joe Parmenter .Vrthur CiRider Page One Hundred Eight Paul Hsgoou Kay Sparling if--- ' S.P Marcus Godfrey Bob Sutton Gar Mathews Bob Heartt Thomas McEnirv VARSITY LETTERMEN Marcus Godfrey — Bud, holding down the position of half, was especialh noted for his games with Santa Ana and San Diego. This was his first year of varsity com- petition and although he was a trifle light, he turned into a valuable pla er. Robert Sutton — Bob, one of the squad ' s few returning lettermen, played guard. He did not allow many men to get through his section of the line. Garland Mathews — Gar was one of the most consistent players on the team, pla ing quarterback. Gar was an excellent runner and passer. He showed up especi- ally well in broken-field running. Robert Heartt — Bob, a three- ear letterman, played guard. His weight on the line stopped many opposing players. He played his best games against San Diego and Alhambra. Thomas McEniry — Tommy was a little light for varsity, but he played a good game at half, making up in fight what he lacked in weight. This was Tommy ' s first year as a regular varsity man. He played best in the San Diego contest. Fredrick Weinrich — Fred played quarter and showed excellent generalship in running the team. To Fred belongs much of the credit for the team ' s success. His best game was against Pasadena. Gordon Clark — Gordy was one of the outstanding players on the team and was considered one of the best defensive backs in the Coast League. He played so well in all games that his opponents learned to fear his stellar pla ing. Robert McCue — Bob played guard and tackle, occasionally dropping back to the backfield to pass. His long passes were the cause of se eral Tiger victories. Robert Mathews — Bob played tackle and guard, proving to be one of the best reserve men on the squad. He was a tower of strength on the line in the Long Beach and San Diego games. A great deal is expected of him next year.

CLASS B FOOTBALL The Class B football team, coached by Coach Ayers, was ery successful, bringing second place in Class B laurels to South Pasadena. It was especially strong on the offensive, being sur- passed only by San Diego. The running attack of the team was developed to such a high degree of perfection that during the sea- son the team gained more yards than an team at South Pasadena has in several years. Thaddeus Cresswell was captain of the team, and proved to be an excellent player. He and Harvey Lester, center, were recom- Captain CRES3WELL [tended for all-coast honors. Glendale — South Pas.-vdeka 3 The middleweights got away for a good start when they defeated the Glendale Bees by a 3 to score. The game was played at Glendale. In the first quarter it looked as though the Tigers were going to score, but they were held by Glendale. Both teams looked rather even until the last few minutes of play, when Captain Cres- well ' s talented toe saved the day for the Tigers with a twenty-four yard drop-kick. Although Plumb was the best ground-gainer in this tilt, the entire team played well. Pasadena 6 — South Pasadena The Tigers were defeated by the BuUpups by the close score of 6 to 0. The only score made in the game came in the first quarter when a Pasadena man picked up a fumble and ran eighty-five yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter the Tigers came near scoring. Cresswell made a forty-five yard run ; then several short passes brought the ball to the four-yard line, but the half gun finally stopped a touch- down. Cresswell and McAllister played fine games. Santa Ana 6 — South Pasadena 12 In their third league encounter the middleweights smothered the Saints under a 12 to 6 score. Santa Ana scored first, but Cresswell evened the count. He received a Page One Hundred Ten punt and ran it back sixty-five yards i through the entire Saint team for a touchdown. The try for conversion failed. In the second quarter Les San- son received a pass from Creswell and rolled the last three yards for a touch- down. No points were made in the sec- ond half. Long Be.ach 25 — South Pasadexa Although Long Beach was later forced to forfeit this game, they out- played the Tigers in practically every way. The middleweights were unable to stand up against the superior driving power and force of the Jackrabbit eleven and lost the game by a score of 25 to 0. Whhtier 12 — South Pasadexa 12 In the first half Misterly received a thirty-yard pass from Creswell and ran thirty yards for a touchdown. A similar pass and a run by the same play- ers made the other score for the Tigers. Whittier scored soon after and tied the score. San Diego 52 — South Pasadena 6 San Diego ' s mighty Class B team downed the Tigers, finally winning the Coast League Class B championship. Every time San Diego got the ball. the ' made gains of many yards, and managed to run up a total of six touchdowns. Captain Creswell made the only score for his team when he ran a punt back forty yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. Ai.HAMBRA — South Pasadena 13 The Tiger Bees proved strong on both defense and oftense in the Alham- bra game. The first half was unevent- ful, no points being made. Early in the beginning of the second half a number of line-bucks and end-runs brought the ball to the six-yard line, from where Plumb carried it over. McAllister con- verted. The second touchdown for the Tigers came in the fourth quarter when Creswell picked up a Moor fumble and ran for a touchdown.

CLASS C FOOTBALL The 1928 lightweight football team, under the direction of Coach Swart, was one of the best midget teams that South Pasa- dena High School has ever had. They finished the season in sec- ond place, being surpassed only by the wonderful Long Beach eleven. Calvin Clark was perhaps the most consistent ground-gainer on the squad with Captain Arnold Bode coming a close second. Andre Jahan was named on the Class C all-coast team which shows the type of pla er he was. According to Coach Swart Bob Vanlandingham is one of the smartest quarterbacks he has ever seen. The entire squad of pla ers was far above the average in their playing, but there is not room here to do them the justice they deserve. Those who received letters were Arnold Bode (Captain), Calvin Clark, Dan Hammack, Gilbert Hoefier, Andre Jahan, Bill Lord, Everett Nunan, Richard Os- borne, Adrian Perry, Vic Starr, Ernest Sutton, and Bob Vanlandingham. Glendale — South P.asadena For their first league encounter of the season the Tiger babes played a tie game with Glendale. The South Pasadena team played an excellent game, keeping the ball in Glendale ' s territory practically the whole time. The goal line was crossed in the second quarter, but due to some technicality the score was not counted. Glendale started on several long drives for touchdowns, but were stopped by the Tigers. Clark and Starr showed up well. Pasadena — South Pasadex. 6 The defeat of Pasadena gave the South Pasadena midgets their first victory of the season. The Bulldog midgets played a ery ragged game. The Tigers ' only score was made in the last quarter when Clark made a forty-iiard run to bring the ball to Pasadena ' s nine-yard line. A few plays later he carried the ball o er for the winning points. He was enabled to make this long run by the fine interference he received. Captain Bode and Starr also played well for South Pasadena.

Early in the -econd quarter, after several long gains h - Starr and Clark, Captain Bode pushed the ball over for South Pasadena. Clark converted. The baby Saints tied the score in the third quarter, but after receiving the kick-off the South Pasa- dena team advanced the ball to the eleven-yard line, where it was run o er by Bode. Long Beach 13 — South Pasaden. ' The previously undefeated Midget team was defeated. The first score for Long Beach came in the second quarter when South Pasadena could not hold them, and a touchdown was soon made. A long drive made the other score. Whittier 6 — South P.as. ' den. ' 6 The second tie tilt was played against Vhittier. In the first quarter Whittier was making a try for a touchdown with powerful drives down the field when Starr intercepted a pass and ran sixt - five yards for a touchdown. Conversion was not made. In the third quarter W ' hittier again started down the held. Ihis time there were no intercepted passes and a touchdown was chalked up for the Poets. Alhambr.a 6 — South P,. s.

The second touchdown came when a punt was blocked. This was picked up by Bollinger, who ran for a touchdown. The Tigers were much superior in the last half, and were on the verge of an- other touchdown when the gun was (ired.

VARSITY BASKETBALL Although South Pasadena did well in pre-season games, winning most of them, they did not live up to form in Coast League competition. The season shows nine wins and ten losses. There were three lettermen returning: Veinrich, Martin, and Clark. Clark was ineligible at the half because of the five-year ruling. Although Coach Green ' s casaba tossers did not win so many games in the league, they gave their opponents great worry, several games being decided in the last minute of play. Long Beach, Coast League champions, was forced to fight to the final gun to win the battle in the best contest of the season. Bob Martin captained the team ; Crichton Brigham was manager. Following the new plan of having trainers for South Pasadena teams, Gordon Ernst and Bill Best were trainers. The team played with courage and fight, but were unfortunate in many contests. Glendale 28 — South Pasadena 26 The Glendale contest was one of the most exciting and heartbreaking battles of the season, being packed just as full of thrills as the score implies. At the end of the third quarter the score stood 18 to 17 in favor of the Tigers. After a final frenzy of shooting, the score was tied and in the ten seconds remaining after a time out, Glendale scored first, there being no time for a Tiger basket. The entire team played a corking game, with Captain Bob Martin starring on long shots. Palmgren ' s debut at center was auspicious as he got the jump nearly every time. Pasadena 20 — South Pasadena 16 This was another of the games that were decided in the last few seconds of play. During the first half the score was fairly even, but in the third quarter both the Tigers and Bulldogs began to play faster and more furiously. This continued into the fourth stanza with neither team seeming able to get the edge on its opponents, until by two lucky long shots in the last few minutes. Pasadena won the game. Clark played a marvelous game for the Tigers in one of the hardest fought games of the season. Page One Hundred Fourteen Tuj) Roil-: Gordon Clark, Otis Blasingham, Fred Weinrich.

Gar Matthews, Santa Ana ? — South Pasadrna 15 Santa Ana being unable to stand up against an irresistible Tiger defense and offense, was forced to yield a victory to the Tiger five. The score at the half stood at 6 to 7, with the Tigers having the larger end. In the third quarter South Pasadena tightened up and by the end of the game had raised the score to 15. Long Brach 17 — South Pasadena 12 The Long Beach five, Coast League champions, were kept in suspense as to the final result of the Tiger-Jackrabbit game until almost the last few seconds of play. The game was much closer than the score indicates, the score being much the same for each team until the last quarter when Long Beach garnered her winning points. Whittikr 22 — South Pasadena 17 South Pasadena ' s team was disrupted by the loss of the three men at the end of the first semester. Weinrich, star forward, was also out with injuries, so but two regulars, Martin and Palmgren, were in the contest. San Diego 37 — South Pasadena 32 San Diego took a fast start, leading at the end of the first quarter 9 to 5. South Pasadena lessened this lead a little. With a wild frenzy of scoring led by Weinrich and Palmgren in the third quarter, they took a six-point lead. Fred Weinrich played perhaps the greatest game of his career in this contest, when he scored fifteen of the Tiger points. Alhambra 21 — South Pasadena 18 In one of the greatest contests of the season. South Pasadena lost the annual Alhambra basketball game, 21 to 18. This game, which was pla ed on the larger Glendale court, was filled with fight and thrills from start to finish. Palmgren, at center, sank several long shots from the center that caused South Pasadenans to rise in their seats. For their final game Captain Martin, Fred Weinrich, and Charles Mulholland played brilliant games.

They won four and lost four practice games before the opening of the League season, giving them an encouraging chance for placing high in the Coast League. Inability to work together caused the loss of their first League game to Glendale 22 to 35. The - came through by winning the Pasadena game 14 to 12. This game was the most exciting of the season. With three min- utes to play, Pasadena led 12 to 6. In a minute and one-half the Howard McD.witt Tiger team shot four baskets, making the score 14 to 12. f ' Santa Ana, League champions, won the third game of the series 22 to 13. The score was tied 12 to 12 at the end of the third quarter. Long Beach, Whittier, and San Diego next defeated the Bees successively. The team wound up the season in a blaze of glory by defeating Alhambra. Captain Howard McDavitt, center, played the most consistent game, not losing a minute of League encounters, and being high point man, with 48 points in League games. Howie played his best game against Vhittier. Dale Roe, standing-guard, was the next most consistent player on the team. Bill McAllister, a two-year man, ranked next, playing forward. Bill played the best game on the floor in the Alhambra encounter. Paul Osgood, scrappy running- guard, fought his best game at Alhambra. Paul was the only senior on the team. Fink won the Pasadena game for the Bees by making the decisive two points. Pat Matthews was the most versatile man on the team. Pat played either forward or guard well, but his strongest position was forward. Pat ' s best game was against Long Beach. Karl Lindberg managed the team in a commendable manner.

Bill Lord Captain CLASS C BASKETBALL Although Coach Bothe did not have an overahundance of material, he turned out a team that looked as though it might take a championship, for a large part of the season. Until they met the Long Beach quintet, the Tiger babes romped through opposing teams easily. After this their power lagged and they were not so successful. Bill Lord was elected captain at the beginning of the season and he showed his leadership in fine style. Blaine Chamberlaine was the regular center, but was unfortunately injured just before the Alhambra contest. Calvin Clark pla. ed forward with Cap- tain Lord, while Richard Osborne and Al Bollinger held down the guard positions. Others who turned out for the team were Louis Fiore, Adrian Perry, Jack Childs, Herbert Vatcher, and John Mahler. Blaine Chamberlaine, center, was high point man of the squad with a total of 47 points as his season record. He was followed by Captain Bill Lord with 35 digits. The midgets won the Glendale game by a large score, 19 to 6. It was a fast game with Clark and Osborne playing in outstanding games. The following week they met the Pasadena C ' s and in a close game defeated them 12 to 16. Clark was high point man and Lord also played well. When the Tigers met Santa Ana they nearly had a defeat marked up against them, but Tiger fight brought them through with an 11 to 10 win. South Pasadena was unable to solve the Long Beach defense and thus lost its first game. Neither team was able to score more than once or twice in the first half, but in the second half the Jackrabbits found the basket and made their winnings. The other three games of the season, with Whittier, San Diego, and Alhambra, re- sulted in much the same way as the Long Beach tussle. The Tigers would probably have won the Alhambra game but for the loss of Chamberlaine with injuries. Page One HundrcdScventeen Top Roii ' .

VARSITY TRACK Winning nine out of eleven dual meets, the varsity track, coached by Gerald Ayers and captained by Ed Plumb, completed a very successful season. Numbered among the defeated teams were Garfield, Monrovia, Covina, Webb, Lincoln, Whittier, Orange, and Alhambra. The two teams to defeat the Tigers were Pasadena and the Caltech Frosh. In t he finals of the Coast League meet held at Pasadena, South Pasadena placed sixth with Bob McCue winning the discus for the only digits. His throw measured 114 feet IOJ 2 inches, which set a new school record. r! ' --.. - -it ' y A ,1 M  Bfc ' ' ■ H ' Ed Plumb Captain, Class A Richard Osborne Captain, Class C During the course of the season seven school records were broken. Besides McCue ' s new mark in the discus, Dix set two new records, running the high in 16.8, breaking by 1 10 second the mark held by Squires; he also broke the former high jump mark of 5 ft. 8 inches by y% of an inch. Bud Creswell leaped 12 ft. ' ,s inches for a new record in the pole vault, breaking by nearly a foot the old mark. Howard McDavitt set a new mark of 20 ft. 8 inches in the broad jump, breaking Mully ' s mark of 19 ft. 9J in. Herbert Spurr, a sophomore, ran the 220 in 23.2 for a new mark ; he also came within a tenth of a second of another new mark in negotiating the 100 in 10.2. The relay team, composed of Spurr, White, Plumb, and Sparling, set a record of 1 :36.1 in the four-man, half-mile relay. The team also managed to garner IQjX points at the annual Chaffe - Invitational meet. In the open events, Creswell took second in the vault; Froom did the same in the mile ; Dix tied for third in the high jump ; and Sparling and Plumb each took fourth in the quarter and high hurdles respectiveh ' . Payc One Hundred Eiglcen ' 1 f f ' IP: • t f f For the Coast League meet a B team was organized from varsity men who were also eligible for B . They managed to make 22 points for third place. Fortunately South Pasadena set two records when John White won the hundred in 10.6 seconds, and Creswell vaulted 12 ft. , ' ,s in. for a first. McAl- lister grabbed a close second in the 120 low hurdles, Creswell took second in the broad jump. Bode got a tie for third in the high jump, Rothschild took second in the half mile, and the relay team of White, Hanna, McAllister, and Stearns, took second for the remaining points. The Class C team composed of but four men gathered 1 54 points in the league finals. Bill Lord vaulted 9 ft. 6 in. for a tie for second and the relay team of Osborne, Post, Lord, and Childs took fourth. Ritchie Osborne captained the team throughout the sea- son. Besides the fellows that set new rec- ords, there were others that made good marks. Froom ran 4:49 in the mile on several occasions. Rothschild was cap- able of 4:55 in the mile and 2:09 in the half, and Scott McLean had about the same mark in the half. In the pole vault Packard and Bode had marks of 10 ft. 6 in. and 10 ft. respectively. Art Grider, weight man, was a consistent winner with 41 ft. in the shot and 11. ft. in the discus. White was a good running mate for Spurr with a mark of 10.5 in the hundred. Dewar was a consistent placer in the high jump with a mark of 5 ft. 7 in. Plumb and James both had marks under 17 seconds in the highs, and Plumb ran 27.3 in the 220 lows. The men gathering the most points during the entire season were Plumb, first, with 86 points; Spurr next with 80; Pete Dix, third with lOjA.

South Pasadena had played but one Coast League game. This game, played with Glendale on their own field, was lost by the Tigers, 11 to 4. The team, under Coach C. Merrill Green and captained by Bob Keedy, first baseman, played a long and hard practice season tr ing to give e.xperience to those new men who were out for base- ball for the first time. During this season the team met Los An- geles High, Jefferson High, Franklin High, Citrus High, Mon- rovia High, El Monte, and many other of the stronger teams in Southern California, breaking about even in the number of games won and lost. At the opening of the season fort - men turned out, five lettermen among them. The squad was cut at the end of a week into two teams, the varsity under Coach Green, and the second team under Coach Bothe. Each team scheduled its own games, playing ind ependently of one another. When a player on the second team showed enough ability and promise, he was graduated to the varsity and given his chance. The five returning lettermen were Bob Keedy, captain and first base ; Elliott Avery, short stop; Gordon Ernst, catcher; Bob Fry, third base; and Harvey Lester, outfielder. These formed the nucleus around which the team was built. The chief difficulty that the team had to overcome this year was inexperienced pitchers. While McCue, Wessel, and Hartley developed quickly and bore the brunt of the pitching, they lacked experience. They are all returning next year and should turn out well. Other returning lettermen will be Keedy, Avery, ALithews, Heintzel- man, Jenkins, and Sam McAllister. In the new Foothill League, which South Pasadena will probabl - enter next year along with Whittier, Muir Tech, Burbank, Monrovia, and Hoover High in Glendale, next year ' s team should show up very well.

The first two league encounters, with Pasadena and Glendale, considered among the strongest teams of the Coast League, were lost by the Tigers. The annual goes to press too early to record the results of the other games, but an excellent record is predicted by the fine pre-season scoring. Several practice matches were pla ed before the start of the Coast League season, including two with Monrovia. Brilliant victories were recorded for the Tigers in these matches, and the result was as excellent in two encounters with Franklin High School. The Tiger tennis team also defeated teams from Citrus Junior College, Lincoln High, and Compton High. The single pre-season defeat was suffered to El Monte. The team included four experienced lettermen from last year: Captain Fred Weinrich, Howard McDavitt, Fred Fogg, and Donald Palmeteer. The team was built around Howard McDavitt, who had already three tennis letters to his credit. His record for the year did not include any defeats until the Pasadena game, when he was defeated 6-4 and 7-5. McDavitt, playing first singles, has rapidly developed into one of the finest tennis players ever to represent South Pasadena High School. Captain Fred Weinrich, a two-year letterman, brought in the points for the Tigers at first doubles. Fred Fogg and Don Palmeteer both played singles, making them- selves felt by their opponents through their fast, hard games. With the exception of Royal Olsen and Valter Hummel, who were out for the squad for the first time, all members of the squad were experienced veterans of varsity competition. The team next year will have most of these men returning and should show exceptional strength. They were Bob Vanlandingham, Jack Heeren, Bill Lord, Blaine Chamberlaine, Glen Patchen, George Bryant, Charles Bradshaw, Jack- son Woodruff, and Fred Cook. ] Lark Jones served as manager of the team.

GOLF TEAM For the first time in Tiger history the school was represented by a golf team. This sport is rapidh increasing in the high schools and it is time S. P. took it up. About the middle of the year Mr. Carpenter agreed to take over coaching duties, and application was made for entry into the golf league. Originally this league was made up of Pasadena, Glendale. Long Beach, Vhittier, and Alhambra. Recently FuUerton and Woodrow Wilson were added which with South Pasadena makes an eight-team league. The squad is composed of Bob Vaillencourt, Sheldon Barrett, Don Murray, Mark Jones, Charles Stanley, Don Palmateer, John Stick, and Frank Schwartzkopf. The line-up for the first match included Palmateer, Barrett, Vaillencourt, Stanley, and Murray; but the others had the privilege of challenging up as in tennis before the next match. Each match is made up of five men from each school, who, again as in tennis, must be ranked according to ability. Each match counts one point, and the school taking three matches is the winner. The season opened April 13, against Glendale, and was played on South Pasa- dena ' s home course, Flintridge. The Country Club very kindly allowed S. P. H. S. to use the Flintridge links for practice and home matches. The season ended June 1 at Alhambra, where the old rivalry re-opened in a new form. With Charles Stanley as manager and captain, the team completed a short but successful practice season, winning 3 out of 4 matches. The first against Muir Tech was dropped by a score of 4 to 1, while S. P. was hardly organized. In quick succes- sion Lincoln was tripped twice 5 to 1 and 4 to 1. Then finally the Pasadena Junior College, conqueror of Muir Tech, was defeated 3 to 2. Glendale defeated the Tigers 5 to in the first tournament. Coach Carpenter, playing Coach Butterfield of Glen- dale, was the only South Pasadena player to win his match. South Pasadena was the favorite to win the Pasadena tournament, but the annual went to press too early to receive the results of the match. Page One Hundred Tzce ttytwo INTER-CLASS GYMNASIUM The boy ' s g m classes this year foUowed a ery interesting program. There were basketball, football, baseball, and decathlon work in each of the gym classes. Probabh ' the most interest was shown in basketball. Teams were chosen in each class and games were pla ed on regular schedules, contests being held every day but Monday. Under this system the coaches discovered much valuable material for the regular school teams in all three classes. Outstanding teams developed were the Jack- rabbits captained by Emerys Ross; the Pirates, Burton Froom, captain; the Bears, Jess Smith, captain; Blues, William Vile , captain; Dodgers, Ross Jenkins, captain. Besides the basketball games, indoor baseball stirred a friendh ' spirit of rivalr ' m the classes between the different teams. Games were held on the same schedule as basketball was. At the end of the season the w inners in each class pla ed to determine the champions of the school. Competitive sports such as the decathlon and handball tournaments were also given. Every boy was compelled to compete in these. In the handball tournament, matches were held to determine the winners in each class, while the decathlon took in the entire school. Nine events were held; the 100-yard dash, 880-yard run, hurdles, basketball free throw, shot-put, high jump, pull up, rope climb, and bar vault. 1,000 points was the perfect score for all these events. Bud Cresswell made the nearest per- fect score and his name was engraved on the plaque presented by the Kiwanis Club. This club which has awarded medals and ribbons for several vears. has been instru- mental in promoting one of the finest contests of the year, and one that has always aroused much interest. Mat work periods were held on Monda s or Wednesdays in various classes. A series of competitive games on mat apparatus were featured in most cases. Some out- standing pyramid and tumbling teams were developed. One of these with Elbert Eas- terbrook and Ra Nichols as the principals entertained at many school functions dur- ing the year.

GIRLS ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Through the hard work of Martha Burkett, and her athletic committee — Beatrice Hall, Jane Anne Smith, Jeanetta Yerxa, Virginia Perry, Rosslyn Morse, Evangeline Sumner, and Helen Burr — much has been done this year. Under the new system this committee joined the others in the Girls ' League. Martha Burkett and Beatrice Hall attended the meeting of the G. A. A. Feder- ation of Southern California, and the entire committee was present at the second meet- ing of that Federation held at Monrovia. At the former meeting a schedule was mad? for the dates of the following play days that were to be given by the schools. South Pasadena was honored by being given the first day. March 9 was the day chosen for the event. Alhambra, Pasadena, Glendale, Long Beach, and Woodrow Wilson received invitations. The following chairmen were chosen for the committee work: Margaret Conrad, lunch; Mildred Sims, dressing rooms; Mary Stringfellow, mixer; Florence Williams, program; Jane Anne Smith, grounds; Betty Andrews, registration ; Gretchen Parker, checking; Helen Burr, music. The registration of the participants started in the main building at 9 o ' clock. At 9:30 the posture parade began. Colonel Wilcox of the Oneonta Military Academy and Mrs. Van Werden of the L. A. Playground and Recreation Department were the judges. Pasadena placed first, while South Pasadena came in second. The junior high school field as well as those of the boys and girls were used for the sports. At twelve o ' clock lunch was served in the cafeteria to about four hundred girls. The girls then went out to the front lawn where each school presented a folk dance Fagt ' One Hundred Tiv ' cnty-six in costume. Glendale gave the Uncle Steve ' s Quadrille, The girls were dressed in farmers ' dress. Woodrow Wilson put on the Sicilians, a Spanish dance. Pasadnea did the Highland Fling. Alhambra gave a Swiss dance, and South Pasadena ended the program with the Swedish Frykdals Polka. The athletic committee spent a great deal of time furnishing the G. A. A. room in the girls ' gymnasium. They made monks cloth curtains and painted chairs and tables to furnish the room in black and orange. The president provided the rug. This year the girls cooperated in putting on an assembly for the Girls ' League. Their skit represented the development of girls ' athletics. The first scene was that of an old-fashioned g m class in their old black uniforms going through exercises. The next scene showed physical education work as it is now. The different sports of speedball, baseball, basketball, tennis, and swimming were portrayed. The new jumper gym suits were fashioned after those worn by the girls of the junior high school. The officers for the year were president, Martha Burkett; vice-president, Beatrice Hall ; and secretary, Jane Anne Smith. S. p. CLUB The S. P. Club was formed this year by the girls who had earned their S. P. letters, that is, those who through their athletic work had gained five hundred points. These girls acted as special hostesses at play day, wearing white uniforms and their letters. Except for two girls, the committee chairmen were all from the S. P. Club. In the girls ' basketball banquet in the cafeteria given after the championship game the club members provided entertainment. The officers were Mary Stringfellow, president; Beatrice Hall, vice-president; Mildred Sims, secretary; and Janet Wilson, treasurer. a Top Row.

VOLLEYBALL Volleyball, as the opening of the girls ' sports this year, proved to be more inter- esting than usual due to the fine work done by Virginia Perry, who was chosen last year to be general manager of this season ' s volley-ball. As there were fewer freshmen this year, the sophomores combined with them to form a team. Both the freshman and sophomore vs. junior, and freshman-sophmore vs. senior games resulted in close scores of two out of three games. Thus the championship game was left to be fought between the juniors and seniors. Unfortunately for the seniors, the juniors won without the necessity of a third game. The following girls were chosen from the three competing teams to form a varsity of the best players: Janet Wilson, Alberta Appling, and Margaret Conrad, seniors; Theresa Genovese, Millicent Hutchinson, Virginia Perry, Sarah Person, Jeannetta Yerxa, juniors; and Lela Layne, sophomore.

SPEEDBALL Speedball, the most interesting sport of the ear in girls ' athletics, was very successfully carried through by its manager, Jeannetta ' erxa. Mildred Sims was ap- pointed general manager for this sport for l ' 52 ' 5-30. In their first game, the sophomores held the juniors to a close total score of 4 to 3. In the game with the seniors they lost, 13 to 2. The championship junior-senior game, January 18, 1929, proved to be very excit- ing. The perfect passing of the juniors overbalanced the general good playing of the seniors, resulting in a 7 to 6 score in their favor. The varsity, or all-star team consisted of the following players : goal-keeper, Lela Layne; full backs, Millicent Hutchinson and Francis McMillan; half backs, Dorothy Thompson, Jane Anne Smith, and Mar Stringfellow ; forwards, Janet Wilson, Val- erie Easterbrook, Martha Burkett, Mildred Sims, and Sarah Person. m i s _ £jii -tj-m iijj ri  Inter-Class Games Page One Hundred Ttvcnty-ninc Top Roiv: {Seniors) Smith, Blackstone, Appling, Frye, Halsey, Conraii, Burkett (captain), Morse, Wilson, McMillan, Williams, Pece, Burr.

There was one second team game in which the sopho- mores won from the juniors 14-13. The girls ' senior championship team is as follows : forwards — Laura Pece, Frances McMillan, Doris Williams, and Betty Morse; guards — Barbara Halsey and Adylee Osburne ; jumping centers — Margaret Conrad and Janet Wilson; side centers — Al- berta Appling, Alice Frye, and Helen Burr. Laura Pece, well backed by the rest of the team, was perhaps outstanding for her accurate shots. The girls who made the All Star or Varsity team are forwards, Laura Pece and Frances McMillan; guards, Mildred Sims and Barbara Halsey; jumping center, Janet Wilson ; side center, Valerie Easterbrook. Page One Hundred Thirty BASEBALL Baseball practice began on May 1. There were three teams onlv for this sport. Helen Burr was the general manager for the season. TRACK As track, baseball, and tennis were late in starting this year, the results of the games cannot be given. Track started April 15. The events offered were hop-step-and- jump, sixt -yard hurdles, fifty-yard dash, and baseball and basketball throw for dis- tance. The general manager for this sport was Rosshn Morse. TENNIS Tennis started April 29. A separate Round Robin was followed out in each class. Those winning the most matches made the class team. Two singles and two doubles were chosen as well as substitutes. The members of these teams then worked for the championship by elimination or by another Round Robin. Charlotte Pickering was general manager for tennis. Page One Hundred Thirty-one TIGER AQUATIC CLUB The T. A. C, or Tiger Aquatic Club, was organized this jear by those who took swimming at Y. W. C. A. last year. The ofScers chosen from that group were Beatrice Hall, president; and Florence Williams, secretary-treasurer. The girls held a meeting once a month just before their swimming class in the Y. W. C. A. pool at Pasadena. Mrs. Sheaffer was the instructor. There are four divisions of the club: the snail, the frog, the fish, and the flying fish. The girls pass swimming tests to get from one division to another and receive a gold star each time. Points towards the letters are also earned. After the last test they are given an insignia. A number of times, the members entered exhibition performances at the Y. W. C. A. May 11, they entered the contest at the Pasadena Play Day. A splash party ended their year. DANCING The dancing class took part in a great man performances this year, and their work can well be considered a success. Two dances were given for the senior theatre party: Cannibal Cuties and Moorish Mamas. At the Junior Theatre party the) gave Pierrot and Pierrette. The girls danced the Grecian Frieze at teachers ' insti- tute in the Belasco Theatre during the Christmas vacation. At the Latin Banquet the danced the Prosperine and also the Grecian Frieze. At the American Legion, April 11, they again put on Pierrot and Pierrette and also a Spanish dance. In the Senior Assembly a chorus and a Dutch dance were given. Page One Hundred Thirty-two HIKING CLUB The hiking club was organized this ear with Miss Anderson as adviser. A rule was made that the would have a hike every other Saturday. The hikers were allowed a credit towards getting their S. P. letters, for a point a mile after five miles. That is, for five miles five points could be earned, and after that a point for e ery mile. On the first hike, to Switzers, two of the girls succeeded in making thirty-five miles. The next time, the members went to Mt. Lowe. This made a good beginning for the girls and a new tradition was started. The officers for the year were Mable Hall, president ; Virginia Perr , vice-presi- dent ; Jane Hinchliffe, secretary; and Beatrice Hall, treasurer. GYMNASIUM CLASSES This year the system of girls electing their own sports was started. The first quarter they were offered olley ball, rhythm (a new subject), and tennis. The sports then changed according to the seasons. Tennis was permanent, while dancing in the third quarter changed to clogging. The girls enjoyed g mnastic stunts under Miss Di. . The last quarter hockey was added to the list as a new sport. Owing to the fact that the girls were just starting, they did not carry it outside of the gym class work. As the equipment for the sport was new, the girls felt like working harder. Miscellaneous games were added to fill out the physical education course.

C. was the honored speaker of the morning in the assembly held Thursday, March 7, under the auspices of the National Athletic Schol- arship Society. Before Coach Jones spoke, Mr. Alman presented N. A. S. pins and certificates to sixteen new members. Raymond Sparling, president of the organization, assisted by Coach Green, introduced the speaker. Coach Jones emphasized the ideal of combining athletics with later life, and claimed as the main point in favor of sports, the reliability and honest traits the ' instill.

D Page One Hundred Fcrty-cight Page One Hundred Forty-nine TIGER ' S PROGRESS THE ARRIVAL Wending his wear} ' way amid the ensnaring palms and grasses, a stranger of no mean disguise, seeking the bubbling fountain of youth and frivolity, after many weeks of painful search, finalh discovered a clearing in the jungle of Learning and sighted the much sought fountain. On approaching nearer, he was surprised not to find any youthful mermaids or mermen basking by the water ' s side. Peering down into the basin filled with refuse, and finding the fountain dry. the stranger thought what a fool he had been to make the journey. Imagine, he thought, returning to my people without the promise of eternal youth, He la down in deep sorrow near the dry basin, and soon dropped off into a tired slumber. THE AWAKENING When the stranger awoke, he found himself clambering up a flight of steps. At the top he was accosted by an inhabitant who questioned him as to his identit -. He stated the purpose of his visit to the ofScer, who explained, much to the stranger ' s delight, that he was about to proceed on an aerial journey to the land of YOUTH. The inhabitant offered his services as a guide through the territory of King Eternal ' outh. Following the guide through the musty, dark passages in the realm of Learn- ing, strange sounds, sights, and smells terrified the visitor. On the right the clickity- click of typewriters, pealing knowledge, awed the stranger, while the smells from the chemistry laboratory, and the weird artistry of the art department caused him to hurry on towards the light that failed. THE LAND OF FRIVOLITY After surmounting the innumerable obstacles, he saw broad daylight appear with blue sky above, and the blooming earth far below. The guide explained that before them far and wide spread the domain of King Eternal outh. To the south and west la - the famed Oneonta Hills and estate of the Countess Eunice, far-famed for its sub- tropical gardens. The Duchess Martha ' s home, scene of many a happy party, attracted the eye. The guide next pointed out the castle of Lady Helen Tucker on the horizon, and with the aid of binoculars the suitors ' line was discerned. As space will not permit an account of each historic spot in this land of frivolity, many of the haunts do not receive due recognition (Lingle, Chase, Hall). Upon scanning the plain more closely he saw myriads of people seeking eternal youth at the feet of Brownfield ' s and Tom- mie ' s, large oases in the realm of Learning. With these attractive and enjoyable re- sorts, do you wonder that the inhabitants of this land kept young? BALBOA From this vantage point, the duo soared through the thin air to the romantic havens o ' er the hill. The Tavern, the Shoe, and Chapman ' s — all incubators of happi- ness and frivolity — were visited enroute to the last word of perfection — Balboa. Here King Eternal outh reigned supreme, enthroned in his castle atop a small isle in the moonlight bay. The stranger, still accompanied by the guide, after a short ride arrixed at the pleasureable resort at even tide. Securing an ethereal meal of ham- burgers and pie, all of said ingredients helping to create eternal youth, the earh ' evening (nine p. m. to two a. m.) was spent at the pavillion de dansant. All the dignified noblemen of the realm were present, dancing to the ardent syncopation of the Balboa Boomerangers. The guide noticed that the King made his exit at twelve, midnight, so at two it was considered proper and ethical to canoe thither to his castle and secure his blessing. King ' outh was holding court, surrounded b - all the mermaids and mermen of the first fountain of eternal life, which was abandoned when Balboa first discovered the Pacific ' s peaceful waters. The guide donned the ro al armor — a bathing suit — and after the stranger had accomplished the same feat, his companion presented him to the King, who in turn blessed the stranger with everlasting youth and frivolity.
