tt Ill Ill MII' W? nf Isp r . in un I "I aj al.. istrations have provided the leadership for the Associated Students of Armstrong College. Starting with a simple publication, the Private Secretary was edited and pro- duced hy Donald Roland and Charles Savage. These were followed by other newspapers entitled: The Sorting Tub, The Waste Basket, the Armstrong Journal, and finally, the Knight. The publication of earlier works in this field was sporadic, but more recently the college paper has come out about twice monthly. The first yearbook, the Aldus, was published in 1925. Since that time, with the exception of a few years during the great depression and Vlforld Watt' Il, the Alflns has been issued annually. Starting out with six students in June, 1918, one htzndred and sixteen in October-four months later-and up to twelve hundred in 1947 and 1948 repre- sents the growth in student attendance matching the growth in Berkeley. The college was started in three rooms in the old First National Bank Building at the corner of Shattuck and Center., moved to the U.C. Theater Building on University Avenue in April, 1920, and into the present modern site at Harold Way and Kitlredge on the 24th of November, 1923. ln 1950 the College purchased the Frenzcl property on Bancroft Way for further classroom and building ex- pansion. Accompanying all these things came a refinement in educational organization and the development of coordinated training plans fblueprintsj which have represented a distinct contribution to the whole cause of American education. ln all these ways, Armstrong College has kept pace with the rapidly advancing 'iatomic-minded" scientists who are creating a world that is not far from Utopia. If business is your calling., master it and master it WELL. 7 . ,ne , fi f , til , III as MM' Ev ,Jig-. lf' ,ls ...W ... . . . M?-We sat X WEB: X W
