For the first time in the history of the Institute it was a walkaway for the second year men. Throughout the twenty minutes the one-by-six flag remained un- touched, despite the valiant efforts of the youngsters. With the Sophs formed in close order around the pole, the Frosh started things off by attempting to drive in two wedges, one from each side. first rush was unsuccessful and after that it settled down to more or less personal struggles between the men on top and the men underneath. The big fight centered around the pole and time after time some youngster would start to climb on the shoulders of his fellow classmen only to be hauled down by the defenders. Green paint, black grease and tattered B. V. D.'s littered the field when the fracas was over. The Sophs were victors. The men of '23 showed lots of fight in spite of the fact that the odds were against them and are determined to be the second Sophomore class to win the Pole Rush. To add a little more incentive to the struggle it was agreed that the losers should give a dance in honor of the winners. The Freshmen gave a fine affair which was enjoyed by all, and it reflected a great deal of credit on the class. THE FROSH DANCE The social season in the Institute was ushered in this year by a fine dance given by the class of '23. Tradition states that the class that loses the pole rush shall give the winning class a dance. The Freshmen lost, but they redeemed themselves by entertaining all the men in the Institute with a party at the South Pasadena Woman's Club. The evening of November 5th witnessed the largest gathering of Engineers in history. Many whom we thought had become permanent wall-flowers or stay-at-homes, burst forth in all their glory, borrowing the family car for the evening (and morning) and introducing their "best". Coming just after our football defeat by Oxy it was thought that a cloud of gloom might settle over the Engineers, but after one twang of the banjo and one sigh of the saxophone everybody's troubles disappeared. The Frosh proved themselves noble hosts, and everyone went home happy, 'n everything. THE FOOTBALL BANQUET The final rites and ceremonies of the most successful season in football annals of the Institute were celebrated with eats, jazz and long black cigars, not to mention unusually interesting after-dinner speeches, at the Tea Cup Inn on December twelfth. This is the one event of the year when all the loyal men in the Institute turn out to show the Faculty how hard-boiled they really are. Page Seventy-seven The football banquet this year was attended by practically every man in the Institute. Long before the time scheduled for the feast a laughing group of men blocked the sidewalk in front of the place, impatient for the fun to begin, and when the gang was finally let in the eats disappeared in A jazz band greeted the crowd and presided throughout the The most important part of the program was the after-dinner speeches which were made enjoyable to everyone by the plasant wit of Dr. Scherer, who acted as toastmaster. Speeches and reminescences were given by the Coach and other football celebrities and were very well received by every one. After this, letters were presented to the men winning them and the event passed into history with the singing, for the first time, of the new college song, written by Manton M. Barnes, '21, "Hail, C. I. T." THE SOPHOMORE HOP After a long rest (?) over the Christmas holidays most of the members of the Student Body were anxious to "up an' at 'em" again, so the Sophomore Hop proved to be the solution. Hotel Maryland was the scene of the dance. Even our Faculty members refused to settle down next to wall, but assisted in disposing of the punch and stepped around the floor with the best of them. The ballroom was very prettily decorated, and the music was-well, wonderful. We were introduced to many new creations in the line of dress, and even Engineers can appreciate something good when they see it. Unfortunately C. I. T. is not a co-ed college and it is agreed that we cannot get along without the ladies occasionally, and then we cannot get along with them. The Sophomore Class is to be congratulated on the success of the eve- ning's entertainment. THE "DORM" DANCES Many men in the Institute, and their lady friends, are indebted to the fel- lows in the Dorm for two fine dances that were given this year. Contrary to the previous custom of allowing all to attend that cared to, and hence overcrowding the floor, a limited number of tickets for the dances was sold. Believing that the best sized crowd for the floor is sixty couples, about this number of tickets was sold each time. The funds derived proved ample to secure the best of music 'n everything. The Dorm Club elects, at the beginning of each college year, several committees to handle its activities, and credit for the success of the social season this year is due to the Social Committee. The Freshmen in the Dorm have helped a great deal, and they have been responsible for the decorations and refreshments for the dances. All four of the classes are represented by men living in the Dorm, but because of varied interests and different courses of study many do not become well acquainted. The dances have proved to be the means of "getting acquainted with your neighbor". The parties are always informal and have been very enjoyable. Page Seventy-eight GNOME CLUB DANCE On February twenty-sixth the Gnome Club gave an invitational dance at the Altadena Country Club. The party was one of the most successful of the season. The ballroom of the clubhouse was beautifully decorated with the pen- nants and colors of the club. The big owl and crescent served its purpose well as illumination for the moonlight waltzes. It was noticed that these waltzes were always the most popular with some of our more sentimental some of ehe old was made of the note oy took ecause of the presencei e, who took the opportunity of making the party a reunion. THE T PARTY One Saturday morning, about four years ago, a small group of men might have been seen starting out on the long toll road up Mt. Milson. After following it for five miles they turned off the trail, and made their way thru the underbrush until they emerged on the crest of a small peak overlooking Pasa-dena. Here they stopped and with the tools that they had brought with them began to make a clearing. From the roof of Throop Hall the slowly growing space was carefully watched thru a transit, and from time to time telephone messages were sent out by the watcher to be wig-wagged to the workers on the hillside. The brush proved to be very tough and progress was slow but by evening quite a large opening had been made in the undergrowth to reward their efforts. After three more Saturdays spent in like manner the last stubborn shrub was cut down and the finished "T" stood out against the hillside a lasting emblem of the institution for which it stands. The entire Student Body helped in the first cutting but since then it has grown to be the custom for the Freshmen, and other newcomers in the College, to see that the weeds are annually cut down. Following this tradition, the class of '23 made its pilgrimage early in the year. Almost the entire class took part in the "T" party which started from Pasadena early in the morning and before noon the work was finished. As usual some of the Freshmen got lost on the way up but they all managed to be around in time to eat lunch in Hennaca meadow. After a short rest the new men returned with a better understanding of that spirit which had actuated the men who first carved out the College emblem on the mountainside. ORANGE AND WHITE DANCE In addition to putting out the most creditable annual publication in the history of the institution, the staff of the "Orange and White" gave one of the most popular dances of the season. The dance, given at the Hotel Mary- land on April twenty-third, served as a means of obtaining additional funds for the publication of the yearbook. Page Seventy-nine About a hundred and twenty-five couples enjoyed the affair and many of the Tech men had invited friends from outside of the Institute. Palm Room was very prettily decorated with orange and white streamers and ribbons, and the big "T" stood out prominently at the end of the ballroom. And talk about jazz! The orchestra simply eclipsed any that has favored the dances this season. For some time there were seven pieces on deck, and although the artists were Tech men who had donated their services, professional harmony was rendered until twelve-thirty. The dance was a social success and a financial success, and everybody had a fine time. SIGMA ALPHA PI DANCE The social season at Tech was closed this year by the most brilliant dance of the season given at the Annandale Country Club on May twenty-eighth by Sigma Alpha Pi. The hosts had spared no pains in providing a wonderful setting for the affair. The Blue and Gold of the fraternity was represented by flowers around the ballroom; the floor was perfect; the music, excellent. About two hundred guests were present, most of them being men from the Institute and their lady friends. For many of the men, it was the first visit to Annandale and it was unanimously agreed that the evening would be long remembered. THE SURVEYING TRIP During the Spring vacation the Sophomore Civil Engineers journeyed to Balboa Beach and spent a profitable and enjoyable week surveying the bay and surrounding country. The Corps of Engineers of the Army has made a thorough study of the Balboa Bay and Santa Ana River silt problem. The problem embraces triangulation survey of the entire country. Consequently, the embryo Civil Engineers had an excellent opportunity to put into practice some of the theories which they had been studying. The entire time, however, was not spent in studying and working. The weather man was not kind and favored the boys with plenty of rain. Not being able to work in the rain, the men occupied their time in playing pranks on inhabitants and on each other. Ask Timourian, who was given through the main streets of the metropolis on a hand car. On Saturday night all the belles of the town assembled in the automatic dance hall seeking to entertain the eligibles. The entire party had a wonderful (?) time with the exception of Wynne Mullin, who could not induce a single member of the fair sex to dance with him. No doubt it was because of his resemblance to an Irish mortar dispenser. During the evening all the members of the party were forced to listen to several gems rendered by Mr. Mackenzie, our rising young genius of the musical world. The trip had a happy ending despite the poor weather and we are sure that the residents of Balboa will long remember the visit of the college men. Page Eighty INSPECTION TRIPS The purpose of inspection trips is two-fold: to enable the students to learn modern manufacturing and operating methods, and to acquaint them with work or problems that they may expect to encounter after graduation. The time spent in making trips is, of course, taken out of the regular schedule of courses but the men do not, by any means, lose anything thereby. The trips really are a supplement to the college work because the professors in charge usually arrange them so that they will be of particular interest and help at the particular time. The students are fortunate in having the guidance of men on the Faculty who have done considerable work here in the Southwest and who are acquainted with the heads of the various manufacturing and operating concerns. Ordinarily it is not until a student has reached his Junior year that he can fully appreciate the trips because it is in that year that he is introduced to the many phases of engineering and is given practical instruction in those branches. Inspection trips contribute considerably to the success of C. I. T. graduates. LLEWELLYN IRON WORKS The first trip of the year was made by the Seniors in the Fall, and con- sisted of a visit to the Llewellyn Iron Works at Torrance. According to the usual custom, several machines were loaned for the occasion and the men were able to spend most of the afternoon in going through the plant. many, most of the operations were novel in that they were done upon such a large scale. The method of heating, pouring and rolling metal was very in- The students from the electrical department were particularly in- terested in the electric furnaces; the chemists, in the composition of the metal in the furnaces. The party had intended visiting the Union Tool works at Torrance but the Iron Works proved so interesting that most of the afternoon was spent there and sufficient time was not available to visit the former. The class is indebted to the Superintendent of the Llewelyn Company for the assistance he gave in explaining the method of making iron and steel products. EAGLE ROCK SUBSTATION Accompanied by Professors Sorensen and Forster, the Senior Electricals visited the substation of the Southern California Edison Company at Eagle Rock on April 5th. The men were fortunate in having the guidance of Mr. H. H. Cox, Superintendent of the plant, who explained in detail the present and proposed work of the company. Mr. Sorensen has done considerable work in the station and on the Big Creek transmission line and was therefore able to accurately explain many of the details of the equipment. The party was conducted through the whole plant, from roof to base-ment, and the E. E.'s were surprised to find that the substation is so large an Page Eighty-two institution. Features of particular interest were the transmission lines, oil switches, transformers, lightning arresters, the two synchronous condensers, ment, but contains machinery for the distribution and regulation of the power from Big Creek. LONG BEACH TRIP Apparently picking out the most disagreeable day possible, the Seniors, on April sixteenth, journeyed to Long Beach. The rain did rain and the wind did blow, but without mishap the party arrived at the Long Beach plant of the Southern California Edison Company soon after noon. A treat was in store for the students and soon they realized it. An inspection was first made of the three turbo-generators and the great surface condensers and equipment. The location of the plant affords the use of sea water for the condensation of exhaust steam. The generator-room also houses the exciters The boilers next occupied the attention of the students. It was surpris- ing how few operators are needed for the operation of the oil-burners. All the boilers were in operation. The transformers and bus-bars were in another building and several different types of apparatus were noticed. The system feeds into the lines of The Edison Company in conjunction with the Big Creek line. Later in the afternoon the Seniors visited the Long Beach Shipbuilding Company and became acquainted with the process of building a steel ship. The workmen had left, and all the usual noise also, so that the students were able to hear all the explanation that was so generously given by two officials of the plant. The visit included a trip through all the departments of the yard, from the office wherein the models and blueprints are made to the completed ship in the water. The method of launching a ship was very clearly explained. The most interesting feature was the method of putting the parts of the ship together after the parts had been assembled in the yards.

Moir FRESHMEN MEMBER G. 1. Hickey Fage Ninety-four V. M. C. A. J. STANLEY ROBSON Mr. Robson came to us as a regular Y. M. C. A. Secretary at the first of the Institute year. He has been of great help in all the Student-Y. M. C. A. work and there are few, if any, of the students who have not benefited greatly by close association with him. He is a man of sterling qualities and world-wide experience, having been Physical Adviser in India for some three years. It is with great regret that we learn that he expects to return to India at the close of this term and resume his work in Physical Education at Lucknow Christian College, India. This has been a banner year for the Student Y. M. C. A. The Association has been reorganized on the standard college basis and a general secretary has been employed to organize and direct the work. With a faithful band of officers and committeemen, elected and appointed by the members and their representativs, the Association has been able to greatly enlarge and extend its usefulness to the students. Some of the features of this year's attainment are: Growth of membership from 26 to nearly 150; increase of budget from less than $100.00 to over $2,000.00; institution of an annual Reception the first week of the year and occasional banquets and socials; sending delegation to the Student Volunteer Convention at Des Moines; conducting popular mid-week meetings with good speakers; running employment and lost and found bureaus; conducting Bible Study classes suitable for college men; and the presentation to students and faculty of the first "Y" Handbook. Through these and other activities and its general spirit of loyalty to the college and helpfulness to all students the Y. M. C. A. has won a warm place for itself in this institution. Page Ninety-sir Otis Barnes Chandler St. Clair Bush Burns GLEE CLUB This year has witnessed the uncovering of much talent in all lines of activity, but little did the men in the Institute realize how much musical talent was present until the Glee Club became active. Under the direction of Dr. Wear, the club was reorganized early in the year and has been the most active organization in the Institute. The members have attended practice regularly, purchased new music, and under very able leadership have given several successful concerts. Like nearly all of the organizations, the club has worked out its own destiny and has been successful both musically and financially. A benefit concert was given, with the aid of the Institute orchestra, in behalf of the Student Y. M. C. A. the last of April, and proof was given the people of Pasadena that the men here are not only good engineers, but excellent entertainers. The club plans to take, in the future, an extensive tour, and if "quality counts" the trip will be a success. Page Ninety-seven THE ORCHESTRA The Orchestra, a new institution at C. I. T., was organized at the beginning of the term of 1919. Its first appearance was at a musical program presented before the entire student body, in which it was assisted by several outside artists as well as local talent. The second appearance was again before the student body where the orchestra played for fifteen minutes as a prelude to the speaker on the program. Perhaps the most important event for the season was the appearance of the entire orchestra at a benefit program for the C. I. T. "Y". The orchestra opened and closed the program and was received with much applause. next year hopes to be placed on a firmer stand. Re- hearsals this last year have been undertaken under many difficulties. members have found it hard to be present at all of the rehearsals and those who were faithful in their endeavor to attend every rehearsal certainly deserve all the credit due them. The members are as follows: Violins: Barnes, Hess, Whistler, Hutchinson, Baker, Maier, McClung, Robson, Hare and Merchant. Cello: Prof. Dickinson. Bass: Walters. Oboe: Catlin. Clarinets: Toll, Ramseyer. Flute: Garfield. Cornets: Vesper, Blakely. Trombone: Bear. Horn: C. R. Keith. Drums: Chaffee. Piano: Bush. Leader: Macurda.

Keith The Electricals claim that they have had the most successful year in the history of the local societies. Not content with the somewhat limited scope of the Student Branch of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, the members of that society in February organized an Electrical Engineering club that included the A. I. E. E. members and many others that were interested. Its aims have been to provide interesting and instructive speakers on modern subjects, and to provide a means whereby the students could get some training in preparing and presenting a subject to an audience. In this and other respects it has been very successful. The subjects have been many and varied, and all worth-while. Several Seniors have spoken on their thesis work, and in a short while have given the listeners the results of several months' research. With the rapid growth of the Electrical Engineering department, this club will attain a position of great importance among the societies of the Institute. Page Ninety-nine A. S. M. E.

Student Branch of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers was nearly lost in the rush of work last year, but was reorganized and new officers elected early in 1920. The membership of the society is small, only Junior and Senior students of Mechanical Engineering being eligible. No attempt is made toward enlargement through choosing members who are not directly interested in the arts and sciences connected with Mechanical Engi-neering. The members receive the Journal of the A. S. M. E. Members of the student branch are kept in touch with the parent society, and upon graduation retain, for two years, the privilege of attending meetings of the local sections, thus giving them an opportunity to meet the men actively engaged in their profession. They may also subscribe to the Journal of the society at membership rates, for the same period. In addition to meetings for organization and business, an unusually successful meeting was held early in the spring, at which Professor Daugherty gave a lecture on Hydro-Electric power development in the United States, illustrated by slides from his collection showing details of many different plants throughout the country.

The main features of the hike were a visit to the Mt. Wilson Observatory and a camp in the Santa Anita Canyon. The trip lasted two days. The insignia of the club is a shield with two retorts and the Institute "T" on it. Page One Hundred One THE RADIO CLUB President, Hubert Woods Secretary-Treasurer, Ralston Bear MEMBERS Professor Forster Handley Fitzpatrick Lyle Dillon Ralston Bear Paul Langlie Frederick McClung Hubert Woods At the beginning of this year several students who were interested in wireless telegraphy and telephony organized the Radio Club, and officers The purpose of this organization was to establish a station at the Institute and to promote interest in amateur telegraphy. The Institute loaned the club several pieces of apparatus left by the Government but no financial aid was forthcoming. The members donated apparatus, and soon a receiving and sending set was completed. For some reason, however, the Government would not issue the club a license so the men were forced to use a range of 200 meters. Despite these difficulties, the club has done considerable work and has had some interesting experiences. The men have heard Honolulu, Germany and other distant stations. Lately wireless telephone communication has been carried on with the Government station at Arcadia. It is hoped the Institute will further aid the club next year so that a well-equipped station can be maintained.

Realizing this, it was agreed that such an organization should be formed, and several letter winners met with the Athletic Director and organized a Committee on Constitution. letter men were present the Constitution was adopted and officers were elected. The object of the Varsity Club is to shape the athletic policy of the In- stitute from the standpoint of the Student Body. that a committee composed of the captains of the various teams shall meet with the Faculty Athletic Committee and decide to whom letters shall be awarded. The Club is further empowered to make recommendations to the Faculty in regard to the management of athletics. It is hoped that the Varsity Club will continue to expand, for the influence of such an organization can hardly be estimated.

Page One Hundred Seven ATHLETICS RAY CALL Director of Athletics R. ERRETT WOODBURY Student Manager of Athletics PROFESSOR ROYAL W. SORENEN Chairman of Athletic Committee ATHLETICS AT CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Year after year, no doubt ever since the new foundation in 1910, the Faculty and Student Body of the California Institute of Technology have been confronted by that ever-disturbing and never-settled question, "Is it worth while to support athletic teams in a Technological College?" If it is not worth while, then we should drop all interest in athletics and be known as an old maid's home, where the students have their knitting circles, and play ring-around-the-rosy. On the other hand, if we are to support athletic teams, let there be a time provision made in the curriculum for such activities, and let the Student Body get whole-heartedly back of the movement and enter into some kind of athletics. "Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well!" There is thus expressed in the above paragraph a condition which exists at the California Institute of Technology, and which is prevalent in all Engineering Institutions. There is so much knowledge of a technical and general character which must be crowded into a four-year Engineering athletics, being generally regarded by college authorities as unessential, are shoved aside and allow to languish. Now most of the men realize the value of athletics. They are trying, under very strenuous conditions, to foster and build up an athletic spirit, and are entering into athletics, despite the added tax it imposes on their college work, for the good of the Institute, if not for their own good. Now, when taken in connection with the proper amount of mental work, physical exercise is beneficial. But when added to an already lesson-burdened day, the amount of time necessary to the turning-out of a good football, basketball, or baseball team imposes too severe a strain on the average man. He cannot stand the pace. As a consequence the amount of time devoted to athletics at the Institute is a minimum. As a matter of fact, not enough time is spent to insure the perfect team-work we would like to see displayed. Consequently our teams almost invariably go down to defeat before other teams, when the deciding factor is the training of each one. Therefore, O Gentle Reader, before you criticise an Institution of 350 men for not turning out record-making teams, consider the full facts of the case, and compare our record with that of any other similar Institution. It is our opinion that the California Institute of Technology will not suffer from the comparison. You will, and we do, concede vast credit to the athletes of C. I. T. for doing as well as they have in the face of almost insurmountable difficulties.

I. T., as a result of the past year's indulgence in the great American game, have not only been preserved in full vigor and splendor, but have been greatly intensified and augmented. The year 1919- 1920 has been, unquestionably, the most successful in the history of the California Institute of Technology. Its football squad, of its four Conference games, won two and lost two. It lost only one practice game, and this was its very first of the season. In the Conference standing at the end of the season, C. I. T. ranked third, with Pomona first and Occidental second. In previous years it was almost impossible to turn out a good football team because of the small enrollment of the College. Last year, however, the enrollment was very greatly increased through the agency of the S. A. T. C Freshmen were allowed on Varsity teams. Consequently, at the opening of school this year there was an abundance of good football material among the student body, and when first call was issued, some thirty or forty men re-sponded. It was apparent from the first that a team of considerable strength would be developed. Captain Bill Renshaw headed the list of eight letter men-Catland, Fletcher, Black, Hollinger, Klein, Lavagnino, Stenzil and Ren-shaw-who reported. Besides these veterans the following men donned suits: Kemp, Hambrook, Webster. Rohloff, Beeson, Groat, Mullin, Symons, Clough, Shields, Shield, Garfield, Hickey, Powers, Pierce, Fagin, Makosky, Hood, Rico, Pattison, Hounsell, Reeves and House. A Freshman squad was formed from men who showed their spirit by turning out, even with the certainty of not being able to play in the big games. The first practice affair was with the Keel Club of Long Beach. As this aggregation had been organized longer, and, as shown later, was one of the strongest squads in this section, C. I. T. was beaten, 16-0. Next the team won an easy victory from the gobs of the U. S. S. Idaho. Other practice games were with Loyola College, U. S. S. New Mexico, and the Sherman Indians. As finally developed, the C. I. T. line was the heaviest in Southern California, averaging 180 pounds to the man. Great credit is due the men who stuck throughout the season without getting into the lineup. The men on the bench make the team just as much as the men in the field. Without subs to practice with a football team would be a sorry affair. The men who, at the end of the season, were awarded letters, are: Renshaw (Captain), Hickey, Black, Catland (Captain-elect), Rohloff, Mullin, Hollinger, Groat, Lavagnino, Stenzel, Hambrook, Beeson, Kemp, and Symons.

This was a game looked forward to by the whole student body, because it would give a fair indication of how our grid squad "stacked up" with the squads of other colleges. It was generally expected that C. I. T. would trim the valiant, but light, Quaker team. Open play was the card up the Quakers' sleeve, while the Engineers' main reliance was also to be on the aerial attack and on end runs. Neither team could get started in the first half, which was replete with poor passes, fumbles, and a general lack of team-work. While at first C. I. T. was the aggressor, when the whistle blew it looked as if the Poets had the edge on the Engineers. Not so the second half. Ray Call "called" down the players in a dozen ingenious ways and languages, reminding them that he hadn't kept them practicing at smearing passes all the past week for noth-ing, and sent them back into the game with a determination to win. first few seconds of play, Bill Renshaw snagged one of Whittier's passes and romped over the line for a touchdown. This started the fireworks, which only died away after Whittier had been hopelessly beaten. Other touchdowns were scored by Kemp, who took the ball over after Beeson had dragged half a dozen Quakers for several yards, and by Black, who intercepted a pass. The final score was C. I. T. 19-Whittier O. The Poets showed lots of " and class, but were outweighed as well as outplayed by the Engineers. OCCIDENTAL Occidental had been playing a mighty stiff schedule previous to her encounter with C. I. T., and had been taking the real short end of some very large scores, which amounted to rubbing the Tiger's fur the wrong way. a result Oxy was fighting mad when it came her turn to play the Engineers, and she was determined to win at all costs. The Tigers rushed into battle thirsting for blood, and for three quarters swept the Tech men off their feet. The flood of Orange and Black striped jerseys was finally checked, and in the fourth quarter Kemp got away for a long run for the only Tech tally. The final score was C. I. T. 6-0xy 19. The Eagle Rock grid was selected for the fray. For the first time in his- tory C. I. T. had a band to represent her at the game. The band was a great asset, for together with the rooting section it managed at times to drown the Oxy cheers, which were augmented by large numbers of fair co-eds in the grandstand. The fierce line plunges of Kirkpatrick, Smith, and Curtiss of Oxy were like a searing, devastating flame, which sweeps away everything in its path. Great holes were torn in the Engineers' line by the bitter Tigers, and through these holes hordes of Orange and Black jerseyed demons came Page One Hundred Seventeen ٥ ٤٠م م م 102.T REDLANDS. WHITTIER OCCIDEnTAL РомолА hurtling through. Even little Abie's 230 pounds were of no avail in filling the gaps. Our men did the best they knew how, but had to acknowledge defeat by a better team. POMONA The C. I. T. tanbark aggregation undoubtedly showed its best form of the season in the Pomona game. There was not the nervousness and lack of co-ordination displayed in some of the previous games. The men were on their toes every minute of the time, and worked together perfectly. score, C. I. T. 0-Pomona 21, shows that the Sagehens did indeed walk away with the game, but it indicates nothing as to the hard time they had in doing it. Pomona started right in to make things lively. Ferocious line plunges, clever trick plays, and long punts brought the ball time and again into Engineer territory, only to have the Sagehens stopped at the critical time by a stonewall defense. For two quarters Dick Hambrook's "Fight 'em, boys," acted like tonic to the defenders, when it seemed certain Pomona would score, and the line became as immovable as the Rock of Gibraltar. In the third and fourth quarters, however, the Sagehens scored, in almost identically the same place and manner. They had plunged and catapulted and crashed their way through the line, and with almost perfect interference made many end runs to the C. I. T. 20-yard line, when a husky Blue and White striped Sagehen detached himself from the main flock, and quick as a flash was behind and to the right of the Engineers scrimmage line, where he snatched the pigskin from the air and romped over the line. The third tally came when Cham- bers ran 30 yards through a broken field of players to the goal line. Lavie and Symons made many excellent passes to Groat, which rarely failed to advance the ball, but despite these frequent spectacular plays, C. I. T. failed REDLANDS By vanquishing Redlands 7-6 the mighty Tech warriors covered themselves with glory, at the same time pulling both legs out of the Conference cellar. The defeat gave C. I. T. third place. The game was played on the home grid, and was, from first to last, the most exciting and uncertain contest of the season. "Wild Bill" Yount, the Bulldog's star halfback, absorbed most of the calcium light throughout the game, and threw a handsome scare into the C. I. T. rooting section, by scoring two drop kicks in the second frame and nearly making another in the fourth. Representing C. I. T. in the lineup were four men—Renshaw, Hollinger, Black and Lavagnino-who were playing what was probably to be the last game of football in their lives. They certainly "came through." "Abe" was always right on his man, and one was generally not enough. Time and again he broke through and stopped the man with the ball. "Lavie" was doing Page One Hundred Ninetren some of his best punting and passed the oval in fine style on the aerial attacks. Black subbed for Rohloff toward the end of the third quarter and tried his "darndest" to put the ball over. It was peculiarly fitting that Renshaw, as captain, should have made the touchdown that tied the score. Good old Bill was playing the game every minute of the time, and although the pass was almost smeared by a Bulldog, Bill snatched it from the air, romped over the line, and the score was tied. "Jitz's" educated toe functioned perfectly, as usual, and furnished the extra point which measured Tech's victory over Redlands. Page One Hundred Twenty-one Woodbury (Manager) Hickey Schneider Lavagnino Mintie L. Larson (Captain) J. Larson Call (Coach) Vesper BASKETBALL The close of the 1920 basketball season found California Institute of Technology safely resting in third place. The dope sheets, made out by men who are supposed to know, conceded C. I. T. a sure place in the deepest cellar position. However, the Orange and White quintet refused to believe the predictions, and when the last basket had been tossed and the final standings made, the dope was found to have been sadly upset. A poor start was made by dropping the first two games to Pomona and Whittier, respectively. These were each very close, and hard fought affairs, but our opponents had had more time in which to practice, and this proved to be enough of an advantage to win for them. California Tech is handicapped by the adverse conditions which now prevail at the Institute. A suitable Gymnasium has not as yet been built on the campus so the team was forced to use the Y. M. C. A. court, which is located at a considerable distance from the College, and much valuable time was lost in going back and forth. Class work lasts until four o'clock, so it was impossible to begin practicing until four-thirty or later. Since the floor had to be cleared by six o'clock only an hour and a half was left in which to coach the men. Despite these obstacles Coach Call worked miracles with the available material and managed to turn out a fighting five that gave every other college in the Conference something to worry about. Under his leadership a steady improvement was made and by the end of the season the best College in Southern California with the possible exception of Redlands, was decisively beaten in one of the hardest fought battles of the year. At the first call for men, four veterans turned out, and these formed the nucleus around which the team was built. The team was captained by Linnie Larson, who is an old hand, and had distinguished himself as a guard, in his prep school days. Larson played last year but this season he put up a better scrap than ever before. Although a guard he was continually running the length of the court, to throw a spectacular basket, and besides keeping his man well-covered, and tossing over sixty per cent of the fouls, he managed to throw more field goals than any other member of the quintet. Another member of the House of Larson shot ringers from the other end of the court. Joe Larson, also a prep school star, held down a position as forward, and was responsible for a good many of C. I. T.'s points. He, to- gether with Lavagnino, the other forward, formed a combination that was very hard to guard successfully, and once the ball was in their possession it was usually rushed to the basket, and the scorer was given some more work Lavagnino is an experienced player, being on last year's five, and is one of the scrappiest members of this year's squad. The other guard was played by Art Hickey, and there was never a play at his end of the court that he was not mixed up in. Guarding is a hard job, but Hickey certainly made a success of it, and followed his man around closer than the proverbial shadow. Mintie jumped center and was usually success- ful in directing the ball to the right person. Besides out jumping his op- ponents he was active all over the court, and made his share of the field goals. The second team was composed of Schneider, Rohloff, Vesper, Kemp, and Rico. Some of these men gave the Varsity a tough struggle, and stand an excellent chance of making the first squad next season. A Freshman team was organized and several games played, a majority of which were won. There are two or three stars among the Frosh but the Freshman rule prevented them from being on the Varsity. Page One Hundred Twenty-five POMONA California Tech clashed with Pomona on the Sagehens court in th first Conference game. It was a hard-fought game but the Engineers showe their lack of practice by losing by a narrow margin. Pomona succeeded in piling up a large lead in the initial period, but C. I. T. came back strong in the second half scoring more than twice as many points as their opponents, but not quite enough to make up for the first half. WHITTIER The second game went to Whittier after a heart-breaking struggle, with the final outcome in doubt up to the last minute. The pass work of the Orange and White squad was excellent, but many easy shots went wide of the mark, and although "Tech" had the ball most of the time they could not seem to convert. OCCIDENTAL After another week of hard practice, the team began to find their shooting eye and in the following scrap with Occidental, the ligers were snowed under beneath the avalanche of Tech tallies. The good guarding of Oxy's forwards prevented them from making many points, while the Engineers' clever pass work made it possible for them to roll up a good-sized score. L. Larson was the individual star, shooting most of the goals. REDLANDS Redlands demonstrated that they were real champions, in the next con-test, when they outplayed Call's crew, and won by a handy lead. The first half was fairly even but in the last period the Baptists began to draw away and maintained their advantage to the end. The mainstay of the Redlands ive was about 250 pounds of humanity, who possessed the happy faculty of being able to toss a basket from almost any position, and he went through his entire repertoire several times during the course of the evening. SOUTHERN BRANCH UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA The Southern Branch of the University of California, or the Cubs for short, took the next game after a hard fought battle in which both sides alternated in having the lead, the whistle cutting the pastime off when they possessed the advantage. As usual Linnie Larson made most of the points for the Engineers. POMONA An affair that is often read of in books but seldom seen in real life re- venged the loss of the first game to Pomona. For forty minutes the ball danced around the brightly lighted court, while the crowded bleachers held their breath, or let it burst forth in wild yells, as the tide of battle swayed from one side to the other. For two thrilling periods, ten men struggled for the honor of their respective schools, and at last when the final sounded it was found that neither side had any advantage, the scoreboard showing that each one had 26 points to their credit This made an extra five minutes of play necessary, to decide the winner, and the team that made the most goals in the allotted time would be declared victorious. In the first min- utes of renewed play, neither side could count, and then from a struggling Page One Hundred Twenty-sia mass in the center of the court, Mintie's long arm shot out, and sent the ball in a long arching fight towards the distant basket. rue to the mark it flew and fell through the ring, a perfect shot. n the remaining minutes Pomon tried many times to even things up, but without success. just as Larson sent the ball through the basket on a free throw for a third count, winning for California Tech. WHITTIER The worst defeat of the year was suffered at the hands of Whittier in the return game. The Engineers seemed to have an off night and lost by a large score. OCCIDENTAL A week later Occidental was again beaten by an even larger count than n the first contest. The Tigers were completely outclassed in every depar ment of the game. The Tech quintet used fine pass work and also succeede in converting on most of their trys at goal. REDLANDS The return game with Redlands resulted in a second victory for the champions. This time, however, the score was closer and the C. I. T. five showed the good effects of the extra practice that they had had since the first encounter. Much better playing was done and although the battle went to the Bulldogs it was only after a hard fight. SOUTHERN BRANCH UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA The last scrap of the season found the Cubs and the Technicians fighting each other. The Cubs were fighting for a chance at the pennant, and the Engineers for third place. In the first half neither side had very much advan- tage, but Tech led by a few points. After the usual siesta was over the Orange and White band began to tear the Babes all to pieces. So fierce was the attack that S. B. U. C. only secured two goals the entire half, while the home product more than doubled their score, the Cubs being completely swept off their feet before the fast play of their opponents.

When one considers the difficulties under which the winged squad labored, he wonders that the track men met with as much success as they did. Undaunted by the loss of last year's track, but practicing on the slow, temporary dirt track tardily constructed by the committee in charge to serve as a substitute until the cinder path for the Olympic trials should be completed, the men came out reguiarly every night to limber up their muscles and straighten out the kinks in their Twelve men stuck faithfully to what looked like a losing proposition and at the end of the season were rewarded for their efforts with a letter. Their names are: Payne, Symons, Mintie, Clough, Ames, Renshaw, Kemp, Jones, Preston, Mosher, Crissman, and Reeves. Payne was Tech's most versatile track star and largest point winner. His regular events are the high and low hurdles, but in the meet with S. B. U. C. he took first in both hurdles, first in the broad jump and second in the high jump and discus. Symons, specializing on the hammer, discus, and shot, was second in winning points. He took second in the Conference meet in the discus and hammer. Ames, captain of the squad, after winning the 100-yard dash in the Oxy meet, pulled a ligament, and was unable to finish the season, although he gamely tried to run in the Conference meet. Clough is a good 440 man, winning third in the Conference meet. Mintie was third greatest point winner, placing consistently in the mile, two-mile and high jump. Kemp, Crissman, and Renshaw proved speedy contenders for places in the sprints. Crissman was new to the squad this year, but has proven his right to a letter. Mosher, after six years' track inactivity, "came back" and proved to be a valuable man in the pole vault and high hurdles. Jones and Preston, middle distance men, didn't get a chance to really prove their ability. New to the squad, with a year's experience they should make valuable track men. Reeves heaved the shot with considerable force and skill, winning first in the Oxy meet and second in the S. B. U. C. meet. Tech lost the Oxy meet, 75-56, simply because of so few men. The Engineers took as many firsts as did the Tigers, and with a few seconds and thirds would have won. The meet with Redlands was forfeited. Tech won from Southern Branch by a 79-52 score. Payne proved his versatility in this meet, and Symons took three firsts. Clough, Mintie, Payne, Symons, and Ames represented California Tech in the Annual Conference meet, and took third place. Pomona won, and Redlands took second. California Tech sent Payne and Mintie to the A. A. U. meet. Payne took two points, taking fourth place in the high and low hurdles. Page One Hundred Thirty one PPDO 3โหนไม่ Burns (Captain) Call (Coach) BASEBALL With only four more games to play and at present tied for first place, the California Institute of Technology bids fair to repeat the victories of the last two years, by again winning the Conference title. Starting the season by dropping the first game to Occidental and later losing to Pomona, the Engineers made an inauspicious beginning, but since these defeats the team has been working hard and the good effects of this practice is being shown. The improvement has been especially noticeable in the hitting of the nine. In the Oxy game the batting was not very good, but in the games with S. B. U. C. Whittier, and Redlands a total of forty-four runs was amassed by Tech alone, mostly due to hard hitting. The fielding of the men has also shown a big improvement in the last few weeks. The infield is probably the best in the South and is playing almost errorless ball while the outfield is handling everything that comes its way in an efficient manner. In the pitching end of the game equally good form is being shown by Reynolds and Groat, both of whom are veteran heavers. Preston c, Schneider Ib, Moir ss, Kemp 3b, Reynolds p, Groat p, Potts, Payne and Otis. The second team men who have a chance are Marshall, Larson, Parmalee and Benioff. OCCIDENTAL California Tech started the 1920 season by losing the first game to Occi-dental, 6 to l. The chief reason for Oxy's victory was a person by the name of Alcock who delivered the ball in great style, eighteen Tech batters falling before his dazzling assortment of curves, drops and fast balls. Groat was going good and had the Tigers at his mercy until the seventh when they secured four runs before he again tightened up. The lineup was changed somewhat because Kemp, the regular third sacker, could not play on account of an operation. Moir took his place at third and Potts played shortstop. This change did not seem to affect the usual smooth work of the infield as only one error was made. Oxy got the first run on a combination of a walk, a poor throw and a clean single. C. I. T.'s chance came in the second when Alcock let down temporarily and passed a man with bases full. However, after this little ex- hibition of nerves he tightened up and struck out the next three men, despite the valiant efforts of the Tech batters to clear the bases with a mighty wallop. In their half of the seventh the Tigers managed to bunch a few hits and forced in four runs, the last tallies of the day. Inning 1 C. I.

The Southern Branch hurler was not so fortunate, a total of thirteen runs and twelve hits being garnered by the local nine. of the Engineers and the rather loose work of the Cubs. was made by Kemp who ran after an almost hopeless fly and gathered it in on the end of his glove. Tech started off with three runs in the initial frame and at frequent in-terrato the sut the athe abe ecured their onte sunners cros herst and excep add to the score. in the sixth when they had two on the bases, they never had another chance to cross the platter. In the last period the Engineers, not satisfied with the already large score, staged a rally that ended only after six more counts had been added, making the final total 13 to 1. 0 WHITTIER The batting averages were given another boost in the game with Whittier. This struggle bore a great resemblance to a track meet, the Tech players parading around th bases seventeen times and the Quakers completin geight trips during the afternoon. Many of these runs were caused by the porous knit' support given by both nines. The entire play was filled with errors at the critical moments, but as most of these were chalked up against the Poets the C. I. T. rooters could not find much sorrow from this cause. Groat pitched only a few real hits were gotten from his delivery. In the eighth Marshall went in as a pinch hitter and hurled the last inning for California Tech. Tech got away to an early lead, getting one in the first and coming back for four more in the second. Whittier retaliated with five runs in the third tying the score, and forged into the lead in the next when an error another tally. Their advantage was short, however, as in the fifth frame the Quaker heaver was hit for a total of seven runs and five more were made before the game ended. Inning 1 2 3 4 5 C. I.

The Technicians earned four in the seventh and one in the eighth that ought to have been sufficient, but in the Sagehens' half of the inning the fielding fell off temporarily and allowed four Pomona men to cross the plate. These proved enough as the Engineers were unable to score in the ninth. Inning C. I. T. Pomona REDLANDS Another swatfest took place when the Redlands nine was defeated 14 to 6, C. I. T. doing most of the swatting. The runs came thick and fast and altho they were spread over several innings the home team managed to amass a total of seven runs all in one time at bat. During this outbreak of hitting the Baptists' pitcher was retired and a new one put in to try to stop the rally. California Tech likewise changed heavers in the third inning. Reynolds re- placed Groat and held the visitors down to but one more run. The lead changed back and forth in the first part of the battle, but to- wards the end the Baptists were hopelessly snowed under. lead in the first with two runs, lost in the next but regained it in the third when they clouted in three more tallies. By this time the Tech nine began to find its hitting eye and started to pound the opposing twirler pretty hard Before they could be stopped fourteen men had crossed the plate and Redlands was forced to acknowledge defeat. Inning C. I. T. Redlands 3 OCCIDENTAL Revenge is always sweet and it tasted very good to the Engineers when they evened up the score with Occidental in the return game. The first battle went to Oxy mainly because of the inability of the Tech batters to hit "Bosco" Alcock, the Tiger pitcher, but no such unpleasantness occurred in the return affair. The Engineers hit him often and hard and in the last inning had him completely subdued. The Tigers did not have the lead the entire game but were wever far be-hind. In the second, the first scores were made by Tech when two men crossed the plate, but Oxy refused to be behind and in her half of the frame tied the count. California regained the lead in the 5th and held it till the eighth. In this period the Tigers again tied the score with two more runs, when the left fielder misjudged a ball and could not recover it in time to prevent the tallies. Neither side scored in the ninth, but in the tenth the rooting section began to get on Alcock's nerves and the Tech batters knocked in two runs. Reynolds retired his opponents in easy fashion in the last of the tenth inning adding the finishing touch by fanning "Bosco" for the last out. Innings 45 6 7 8 9 C.I.

HONSAKER TENNIS California Tech is fortunate in having the four fine oil courts at Tourna- ment Park at the disposal of her tennis players. Scarcely an afternoon goes by but what the courts are full of future Engineers, tossing the hittle white sphere about, and fighting like grim death to "put it over" on the other fellow. Tennis is a game that does not require the steady persistent training so necessary to success in all the major sports. Once mastered, a few hours of play a week will keep a player in good trim, and at the same time afford him very good exercise. Hence it is that the sport is so popular with Tech men, most of whom have their time pretty well taken up, but realize the value of the exercise derived from an hour's play. Early in the College year, a general tournament was organized for the purpose of lining up the tennis material in the college, and determining who the team might be composed of. A number of good players, it developed, were entered, and some keen competition was encountered by the men who were finally selected for the team. Herndon was winner of the tournament, Kohtz second best, Clarke third and Johnny Honsaker fourth. These four made up an aggregation that was very hard to beat. Herndon and Kohtz together made up the first doubles team, and out of the matches played lost They were Tech's representatives at the annual Ojai tournament, and though they were eliminated, they both put up a good fight. They had the misfortune to be matched against the best men of the north early in the Both of these men play a smashing, driving game that is very to face. Phillip Clarke as third man of the Tech aggregation proved hard nut for his opponents to crack. His game is not spectacular, but he is at all times cool and the steadiness of his playing is his greatest asset. Every shot he makes counts. Johnny Honsaker has a serve on his string that will generally win for him the match Several practice affairs were arranged to get the men in trim. the first of these was with the Dental College of Los Angeles. All the practice affairs were won by decisive scores. At the present writing, only two matches of great importance have been played, one with Whittier College, and the other with the visiting team from the University of Arizona. The Quakers were decisively defeated by the score of 5-1, the Engineers winning five matches to the Quaker's one. good tennis was displayed in the match between the first doubles teams. The Whittier men, Pickett and Kimber, took the first set 6-2, but Herndon and Kohtz steadied down in the second set and defeated Pickett and Kimber 6-0. They took the third set 6-3. Summary: Herndon (C. I. T.) vs. Pickett, 6-1, 6-4. Kimber (W.) vs. Kohtz, 8-6, 2-6, 6-3. Clarke (C. I. T.) vs. Kepple, 6-3, 6-3. Honsaker (C. I. T.) vs. Ward, 6-3, 6-4. Herndon and Kohtz (C. I. T.) vs. Pickett and Kimber, 2-6, 6-0, 6-3. Clarke and Honsaker (C. I. T.) vs. Ward and Kepple 6-0, 6-2. The Arizona Wildcats were easily defeated, Tech winning every match except one. Honsaker had the bad luck to break his racket after winning the second set 8-6, consequently losing his match. Peppla and Stattord, two of the Arizona players, played for Tech last year. They received a hearty welcome from their old friends.

Since, troubles arising from the dissatisfaction growing out of the peace negotiations and the ever-present Mexican and Asiatic problems, have again wakened the American people to the necessity of a stable military policy Jniversal military training has been very widely advocated, and although n‹ definite decision has resulted, the Reserve Officers Training Corps is a practical step in this direction. The Reserve Officers unit, Senior Division, was organized in the Fall of 1916, under the Command of Captain, now Major, Louis R. Ball, U. S. A., Retired. The next year Major Ball was replaced by Captain, now Major, Charles T. Leeds, U. S. A., Retired. In the following Fall the Institution was placed on a war footing with all the students soldiers in Uncle Sam's Army, under the command of Captain Orville Norris Tyler, U. S. A., Retired. The record of the Corps during this period is one that the Insti- tute will always be proud of, and by careful co-operation between the military and academic authorities the excellent standards of the Institute were maintained. Captain Cecil A. Gorlelangton, U. S. Eng., who had seen considerable active service during the early part of the war, succeeded Captain Tyler in the Winter of 1919. During the short time that he was here Captain Gore-langton did a great deal to inspire enthusiasm and interest in the Corps. This year Captain August M. Engel as Commandant. Under his leadership the course of instruction was varied and made more interesting and popular than heretofore. Many upper classmen have taken the advanced course, a few of them having had considerable Army experience, and have made very able Cadet Officers. An exceptional opportunity to acquire practical experience in Military Engineering at Camp Humphreys, Virginia, has been offered to the students by the Government and many members of the R. O. T. C. at Tech plan to attend the camp this Summer. Page One Hundred Forty-five RESERVE OFFICERS TRAINING CORPS OFFICERS AND NON-COMMISSIONED OFFICERS ON DUTY MAJOR Lavagnino, Gerald A.

The moon cast a dim and silvery luster over the landscape. A gentle breeze rustled through the shrubs wafting the sweet fragrance of roses and violets to the passerby. What a perfect evening for love thought Clarence. Then the thoughts of Clarence drifted to the little secluded Derby Lane where he and beautiful Maxime would walk this evening. Beautiful Maxime and he alone knew of this secluded lane. Clarence quickened his footsteps. The thoughts of his coming pleasant evening made him press forward eagerly. He reached th home of the beautiful Maxime. He rang the bell. The maid answered the door. No. the beautiful Maxime was not in. She had gone out walking through the secluded lane with another suitor.

There was nothing peculiar about the car or even the fact that I had to wait for it. There were, however, two men standing on the same corner waiting for the same car. There is nothing peculiar about this fact, as corners seem to be made to wait on and cars to wait for. But that is another story. These men were talking. Even this fact will not startle the gentle readers as men have been known to talk under even more trying circumstances than this. They were talking loudly and I could not help but hear them because I was listening. They were exchanging stories. The story which one told was a master-piece, but common decency forbids. The story which the other told was not so good but as it reminded me of some people I have met I will tell it here. A man by the name of Duray, I think he called him, was out West from back East. He was quite a man and he knew it in fact he told people so. He had a way of exaggerating other things also. One of his western friends was greatly annoyed by his tales of mammoth proportions. He told him that if he started to tell anything that sounded too big he would punch him in the ribs or kick him under the table cloth or in some other way warn him and he could modify his statements. It seems that the very next night this man, Duray, and his friend were out to dinner. His friend sat opposite him. After dinner they were sitting around the table talking. Duray began telling of the wonderful things he had seen and done. He told them of his wonderful government work, of his success in business and then started on New York.
