It is good for man to try all chaiiges progress and corruption, powers, peace and anguish, not to go down the dinosaur ' s way until all his capacities have been explored: and it is good for him. to know that his needs and nature are no more changed, in fact, in ten thousand years than the beaks of eagles. .J ' -.-it. Throughout the past year, the Les Memoires Staff of 1976 has w ed vfery harci%i col- laborating to present a book of memories which depict the many plbple, efepts, activi- ties, and accomplishments, which have made this year very unique. W6 wot p Mso like to recognize our country ' s 200th birthday, 1976— the year comemorating the iMependence of the 13 colonies; the birth of the United States of America. This is a very important part of our history, but as residents of California we have another history-the Winning of the West. The Indian days and the days of the Franciscan Missions are still evident today. Explorers like Jedediah Smith, a trapper who crossed the Sierra Nevada mountains and was the first American explorer to reach California by land, Kit Carson, and John C, Fremont add strength and color to our state. Cowboys, cattlemen, and homesteaders. John Sutter and the Gold Rush, are all a part of this exciting history. The California flag, a single star, a grizzly bear, and the words California Republic, show the courage and the spirit of freedom these frontiersmen and American settlers of California possessed. Now as we finish this book, we take pride in dedicating these pages to the Winning of the West, but most important the Bicentennial of our country.
