BLUE AND GOLD This academic year has seen us become better students, minds and morals both improving-, so that there will be i n the future no little emulation in our intellectual labors. High standing will become necessary, will become a criterion of student status outside of the Recorder ' s office. Socially we have improved. Concerts, club-meetings, diver- sions of various kinds have brought us nearer together. The California Alpha chapter of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity has been revised, thus making five active Greek letter Fraternities. A successful inter-society entertainment was given. We have started new organisations. In short, we are beginning to better know and appreciate ourselves. The poor cinder track and neglected campus have felt the impulse. Athletics are beginning to boom . We played base-ball a little, and after we were warmed up engaged in foot-ball most creditably, forgetting our class games and our class prejudices in our common University feeling. And this electric wave will roll on and on until Berkeley students at last will deem it necessary to reside in the town and be somebody in college life. Even the Legislature awoke and gave us money, and the Regents forgot their politics and honored us with their attention. They painted the Gymnasium and enlarged it, levelled the un- sightly hill in front of the Mechanics and Arts building, improv- ed North Hall in many ways, built a student ' s observatory, started a tunnel to supply us with water, even surprised the cin- der track with their touch. Further to convenience us the nar- row gauge railroad is soon to come among us. Finally it appears as if the colleges of the University in San Francisco and the colleges in Berkeley were beginning to assim- ilate with each other. Besides, our library is by frequent ad- ditions, especially by the Hittel gift of photographs of works of sculpture, a centre of attraction, which is making itself strongly felt. Such, then, is the change which the editors have noticed and have endeavored in their work to symbolize. In behalf of the Junior class they welcome all and extend, to the honored head of this institution the Junior right-hand in welcome. Nor do they forget the literary societies, the fraternities, nor anything connected with our student life. To all God speed .
