club house for the first meeting VI Iio
year, and also to dedicate the new clup
home. Dainty fall costumes and 1etch-
ing, chic hats added glowing bits OF
color to the handsome reception room,
where the informal reception proceed
ing the program was held. Here the
officers of the club proper and OF the
club house association received the de-

Formal dedicatory ceremonies set the
entire building apart to the educatlonal:

original poem written for the occasion,

all might become a part of Gods great
harmony.

the new club house, and nothing but
expressions of delight and satisfaction

Effectiveness of the building and its
furnishings.
Harmony at the City Hall
City Auditor Kernaghan this morn
ing refused to allow the warrant for
the salary of City Treasurer S. NJ
Munson. Some weeks ago the two Of
ficers had a friendly disagreement as
to the construction of certain portions
of the city law and took the dispute to
the city attorney. The auditor said that
the city ordinances required the treas
urer to appear before the auditor at
the close of each days business and
announce under oath the amount of
money in his hands. The treasurer re-
ferred to the city charter by which the
treasurer is ordered to make such a
certification once a month. City At
torney Fitzgerald sided with the au-
ditor. But it appears that the city
treasurer still holds to his point. Now
the city auditor has made another
move, holding up his brother officials
salary because the daily oath is not
being taken. The affair has it's hui
morous side, but neither of the dis
putants can see it. Tyeasurer Munson
was elected by the people, Auditor
Kernaghan was appointed by the
mayor. Who will find way out of
the difficulty without a loss of dig
nifty to either?
Athletic Director Braden announces
that Throop POLYTECHNIC Institute will
follow the example of the northern col
l6SGS hereafter anu dllOW one CIGUlL
toward graduation for regular athletic
work done on the field track, just the
. same as if it were done in the gymna-
SUM. This is good news to the men
trying for the football eleven. Man
ager Scott Lee gave out today the fol-
lowing schedule OF football games for
the present season: October 81, Los
Angeles Polytechnic higA school at
Tournament park, Pasadena; October
%, Redlands high school at Redlands;
November A. Harvard Military acad-
envy at Tournament park, Pasadena;

Der %, Los Angeles high school at FL
esta park. Los Angeles. The latest
named game is expected to decide the
inter-scholastic championship of South
ern California.
Another Gift for Miss Sutton
The Central Tennis club presented
Miss May Sutton with a handsome
gold bracelet set with amethyst this
afternoon at it's courts in South Pas
adena. The presentation was made
by Fritz Overton, champion tennis
player of Southern California, in the
presence of about one hundred mem
bers and guests. There was some
gnod tennis playing during the after
noon, the most interesting probably
being that IN which IL. &. Way and
Miss May Sutton defeated Simson Sim
sabaugh and Miss Violet Sutton, the
score 81. The occasion was quite
pleasant affair socially and the club
showed it's pride in the splendid play
ing of Miss May Sutton on her for
eign trip in a very happy manner.
The little champion was much sur
prised.
