COMMENCEMENT AT NORTHERN UNIVERSITY
FIFTIETH COMMENCEMENT AND ALUMNI REUNIONS TO BE HELD SHORTLY
CLASS OF 1913 MORE THAN DOUBLE THAT OF TEN YEARS AGO
(Contributed to the Gazette.)
This is the Fiftieth Commencement for the University of California. The class of '88, which is coming back to Berkeley May 14 for its 25th anniversary reunion, will see more than 700 candidates march across the Greek theater stage to receive their sheepskins. Even the class of '03, returning for its decennial, will catch its breath to realize that this year's graduating class is more than double the size of that of 10 years ago.
Commencement week at Berkeley is a time of festivity for the whole community. The Senior Extravaganza comes first. Under the open sky, in the vast spaces of the Greek theater, eight thousand people will gather on the night of Friday, May 9, to see the Seniors disport themselves in "The Mischief-Makers." This is a spectacular extravaganza written by Victor C. Gaines, '13, with music composed by Stanley Bryan, '13, also just graduating. Several hundred costumed members of the class will participate in the action, the choruses, the dances, and the kaleidoscopic pageantry which
A gay company, the girls all in white dresses and the men in white trousers and straw hats, the Seniors will set forth Monday morning, May 12, at 9:15 on their Class Pilgrimage of farewell. Preceded by a brass band, and accompanied by great throngs of spectators, the class will visit the Senior Oak, Agriculture Hall, Boalt Hall of Law, California Hall, the Harmon Gymnasium, South Hall, the Rudolph Spreckels Physiological Laboratory, Hearst Hall, Senior Hall, Women's Senior Hall, the Civil Engineering, Mechanics, and Hearst Memorial Mining Buildings, the new University Library, recently built from Charles F. Doe's bequest of three-quarters of a million, and North Hall, and at these hallowed spots brief words will be spoken by Senior leaders of student life, by Professor H. Morse Stephens, and by President Wheeler. That night comes the Senior ball, at Hearst Hall, and next day the graduating class meets, to elect permanent officers, who shall serve so long as they and the class survive, and to decide to what good purpose shall be devoted the fund which every class gives the University in trust, at graduation, to be placed among the University endowments.
On Tuesday, too, at 4, comes the annual public meeting of the Phi Beta Kappa honor society, associated in memory with much notable American oratory and poetry. The Phi Beta Kappa orator will be Rudolph Schevill, professor of Spanish, and the poet, John Galen Howard, director of the School of Architecture, whose Greek theater is veritably a poem built into concrete.
With much dignity of cap and gown and gorgeous academic hoods, with fluttering class banners and numerous company of graduates and alumni, the commencement procession will form at 9:15 on Wednesday, May 14, and then proceed to the Greek theater, where

This is a spectacular extravaganza written by Victor C. Gaines, '13, with music composed by Stanley Bryan, '13, also just graduating. Several hundred costumed members of the class will participate in the action, the choruses, the dances, and the kaleidosocopic pageantry which the hugeness of the Greek theater stage makes possible.
Athletic prowess claims the next day. University track teams from all over the Pacific Coast will compete at Borkeley on the afternoon of Saturday, May 10. Among the institutions expected to strive for honors are Stanford, Washington, Oregon Agriculture College, Nevada, Pomona, Occidental, the University of Southern California, St. Mary's, Santa Clara, and the University of California. A few days later the University of California track team will start East, to compete in the Harvard Stadium in the greatest of American track events, the annual meet of the I. C. A. A. A. A.
Saturday evening, May 10, the women of the graduating class will have a banquet at the Key Route Inn, in Oakland, while the Senior men will feast together under the lofty vaultings of the noble memorial vestibule of the Hearst Mining building, on the campus, with speeches from the best-beloved of their own number and of the faculty.
Sunday afternoon, in the Greek theater, the Baccalaureate Sermon will be preached by Rev. Edwin H. Hughes, D. D., LL. D., Methodist bishop of San Francisco.

With much dignity of cap and gown and gorgeous academic hoods, with fluttering class banners and numerous company of graduates and alumni, the commencement procession will form at 9:15 on Wednesday, May 14, and then proceed to the Greek theater, where President Wheeler will give his parting blessing to the graduating class, and his wise admonition for life. Speeches will be made by five representatives of the recipients of degrees —Clare Morse Torrey of San Francisco, Senior in the College of Social Sciences and President of the Associated Students; Robert Gordon Sproul of San Francisco, Senior in the College of Civil Engineering and President of the University Y. M. C. A.; Barbara Natchtrieb of San Francisco, Senior in the College of Letters and a foremost figure in student dramatics, literary work, and good scholarship; Arthur Eaton of Fresno, Senior in the College of Mining, captain of the crew, and colonel of the University Cadets; and James William Ryan of San Francisco, of the Hastings College of Law.
After the exercises of this Fiftieth Commencement, the alumni and the graduating class will lunch together under the oaks in Strawberry Canyon, west of the Faculty Club, with speeches by President Wheeler, Governor Hiram W. Johnson, and others. The day will end with the president’s reception to the graduating class.
A great event of Commencement Day, Wednesday, May 14, will be the Commencement Concert, in the Greek theater at 3 P.M. Ysaye, probably the greatest of living violinists, will play the Viotti Concerto and the Bruch Concerto in G minor, with full orchestra, and also a group of numbers, including some of his own compositions, with piano accompaniment.
A new type of alumni reunion is coming into effect with this Commencement. Two groups of classes that were in college together will hold two joint gatherings. Thus, the classes which graduated in '88, '89, 90, and '91 will dine together Wednesday, May 14, at 6:30 P.M., at the Key Route Inn in Oakland; while '07, '08, '09, '10, and '11 will dine together at Hearst Hall that same evening, with dancing afterward.

"IT PLEASES US TO PLEASE YOU"
Heying's Drug Store
ANAHEIM, CALIF.
Mr. and Mrs. Seth Piper, of York, Nebraska, have been guests of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Johnson at their hospitable home on East street. They are delighted with what they have seen in Southern California, and consider this valley the loveliest spot they have visited on their travels.
“If I stand on my head, the blood all rushes to my head, doesn’t it?” No one ventured to contradict him. “Now,” he continued triumphantly, “when I stand on my feet, why doesn’t the blood all rush into my feet?” Because,” replied Hostetter McGinnis, “your feet are not empty.”
FISH AND ABOUT THE CITY
Fish and Frog Farm
For breeding fresh water fish and frogs, H. W. Swanson, of Los Angeles, has just purchased 20 acres of land about a mile from Huntington Beach, near the sugar factory, and has contracted for digging wells to supply water for forming an artificial lake. The product of the "fish farm" will be sold to Los Angeles hotels. Mr. Swanson intends to make his enterprise one of the show places of that section.
Here's Your Money, Ramsey
Auditor Lester is making diligent inquiry for information that may clear up the mystery of the whereabouts of A. Ramsey, township constable of Los Alamitos, as a salary warrant sent him for March has been returned after having been sent to Los Alamitos and hence forwarded to Modesto, Ill., where, after remaining for some time, it was returned marked "unclaimed." There is still another salary warrant for April, but Lester will not send that one until he hears further from Ramsey or finds out for certain that the latter has left for parts unknown. Ramsey is under $1,000 bond, and he has never been given leave of absence from the county, so that if he really has left, his office may be declared vacant, and a chance offered for some other aspiring sleuth to grab off the $10 a month the place pays.
Joyrider Held for Trial
Kenneth Morse, the youthful joyrider who with another boy and two girls took an automobile belonging to O. L. Baldwin of La Habra and drove it to El Centro before they were caught, was given a preliminary examination on Friday in the township court at Santa Ana and held for the superior court under $1,000 cash bond. Senator Anderson and the Schoolboy on some firm in Butte and talked about an orange shipment, but had left before the firm got any further information. Later, the firm received the telegram from California. The Butte concern now hopes to locate Delaney in a few hours. It is said Delaney withdrew $35 from the bank on Monday before he disappeared in an automobile Tuesday. Delaney is well known here. His friends still believe he is suffering from temporary lapse of memory brought on by an accident he experienced some months ago. It is stated his accounts with the company are straight.
Orange Bloom Destitute of Honey
Orange growers throughout the interior of Southern California are puzzled at the strange condition in the annual blossoming of the trees. Of fragrance there is plenty; for miles the country is saturated with the smell from the groves. The blossoms clothe the trees to an extent never seen before, but there is no honey in the blossoms. Bee men first discovered the lacking quality in the blossoms. Growers are speculating as to what it means—whether a short crop or a big one. There is little vitality in the blossoms. This easily is explained by the statement that the trees are over-taxed in the combined burden of replacing the foliage destroyed by the January frost and feeding the extra heavy bloom. Most of the growers, however, are optimistic. They say the "inside room," the blossoms sheltered on the interior of the foliage, will be more than sufficient to place heavy crops on the trees, and will be sheltered to escape the hot weather of June and July.
This condition holds in the San Bernardino and Riverside regions but in the section adjacent to this city, nothing out of the ordinary is noticeable about the blossoms, and growers are positive of setting a large crop next

Joyrider Held for Trial
Kenneth Morse, the youthful joyrider who with another boy and two girls took an automobile belonging to O. L. Baldwin of La Habra and drove it to El Centro before they were caught, was given a preliminary examination on Friday in the township court at Santa Ana and held for the superior court under $1,000 cash bond. Senator Anderson and the Schoolboy Senator Anderson of Orange county has been heralded to the State as the school boy's friend, because he introduced a bill forbidding teachers to keep Johnnie in after 4 o'clock. His claim to the title was questioned when his bill as amended passed the Senate.
The bill now provides that no teacher may keep a pupil in after 4 o'clock except with written permission from his parents, or unless she has telephoned or otherwise notified his parents. In other words, when Johnnie stops to catch suckers in the pool at the foot of the hill, or to go swimming on the way home, he can no longer plead the time-honored excuse, "the teacher kept me in."
Johnnie's gratitude is doubtful.
Missing Man Located
It is believed J. C. Delaney, district manager of the Randolph Fruit Company, who disappeared mysteriously 10 days ago, will be located soon. He had arranged to ship oranges from Placentia to Montana. It is reported a representative of the Randolph company wired a house in Butte that on account of the disappearance, of Delaney that shipment would be delayed. A wire came back that a man giving the name of J. C. Delaney had called

however, are optimistic. They say the "inside room," the blossoms sheltered on the interior of the foliage, will be more than sufficient to place heavy crops on the trees, and will be sheltered to escape the hot weather of June and July.

Squatters File on Lands
Declaring that there is a lot of land at El Toro to which the government has never given title, squatters have filed on some 800 or more acres at El Toro. The land lies between the main through road and the Santa Fe railroad, running south from the Irvine line, and includes lands that are owned by a dozen or more people, including Juan Gless, Capt. Huddy, Mrs. Perkins, Swartz and the Episcopal church. About two years ago some surveyors made a mysterious survey in that place. A few days ago surveyors began going over the land again, and several tents have been pitched here and there. The information at El Toro is that the property has just been filed upon as government ground. Surveyors of the county have been aware of the contentions for sometime, but think there is nothing in them that promise any success to the homesteaders. One of them says that an old description failed to be completed, but a later government survey checked out that particular portion of the Whiting ranch exactly. The property sought to be contested is the west portion of the Rancho Canada de Los Alisos, and that not now owned by Mrs. Perkins was deeded to others 20 years ago by her husband, Dwight Whiting, now dead.
Deputy Sheriff a Juror
Motion for a new trial of the case of Louis Savala, who was convicted in the Township Court at Santa Ana of keeping his poolroom open after hours was made Friday by L. A. Wells, Savala's attorney and denied by Justice of the Peace Cox, who then sentenced Savala to pay a fine of $200 and to be remanded to the custody of the sheriff to remain in the county jail until the fine is paid, at the rate of one day for each $1 of the fine. Attorney Wells asked for a new trial on several grounds chief of which was that defendant had no more chance under the circumstances for a fair and impartial trial than a cat without claws would have to climb out of the bottomless pit. Attorney Wells laid particular delightful evening. Five hundred was the game for the evening, in which five tables participated, after which a delicious luncheon was served.
The series of meetings held in the Congregational church under Rev. Bruce Brown of Fullerton, during the past two weeks have come to a close. It has seldom been the writer's privilege, in the course of a long life, to listen to more fervent, beautiful, convincing argument than that presented by Mr. Brown in his plea for a resident pastor in Buena Park. Certainly "good seed" has been sown and only good can follow. At each meeting there has been special song service which has been especially fine.
The Saturday evening meeting of Parent Teachers' Association was a grand success in every way. The Bible pictures were simply fine, beyond expression. Rev. Bruce Brown made them doubly beautiful by his most interesting explanation, and the illustrated songs "The Holy City," by Mrs. C. L. McComber, and "Where Will You Spend Eternity," by Mrs. Geo. Wilcox, were most thoroughly appreciated and enjoyed. Buena Park people have much to be thankful for in having this up-to-date association to provide same and pleasing entertainments for old and young every Saturday evening. They should have a full house each and every time.

"What some women want is a man with a past; what other women want is a man with a future; what every woman wants is a man with a present."
In other words—an "izzer." Only an astral affinity who communes with chaps like Mahomet and Zoroaster could prefer a man with a past, but a business man must have "a past," and it must be a good one. His present standing depends a good deal upon his past record. My boss says: "Billy, you must sell more goods—our reputation demands it." So I say to you all—come in and put it over us or he'll say I'm a "wuzzer."
