Schools LETTERS AND SCIENCE EVERYONE in L. and S. eventu- ally finds himself in the crowd- ed halls of Wheeler. Courses are offered in everything from Basketweaving 1A to Mental Deficiency 2. Lecturers with microphones and students with fybates are common in this college. Dean A. R. DAVIS ENGINEERING THE future should be well sup- plied with Cal engineers! Nearly twenty-nine hundred students are enrolled in one of the eleven divisions of the Col- leges of Engineering. Engi- neers who leave their north side haunts to wander over to south side of campus are eas- ily recognized by their ever- present slide rules. Dean E. D. HOWE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION IN the crowded classrooms of the School of Business Admin- istration, survivors of Bus. Ad. 6A learn the elements of statis- tics and public finance. Night labs and heavy books are the lot of the many who receive practical and valuable train- ing for a place in the American economy. Dean E. T. GRETHER

Board of Regents To the Students of the University of California: AS we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Gold Rush, which brought to California her first great migration of new citizens, let us consider not only the progress which we have made in that comparatively brief period of time, but also the incalculable possibilities of the next 100 years. Who can say that we have reached a levelling-off stage in our development, or that the rising generation will have less opportunity than their parents and grandparents. The des- tiny of California is in the hands of her youth. Pay no heed to those who would say there is a limit to that destiny! The education you are re- ceiving is of vital importance in the development of a well-rounded life in our complex age and in fitting you for a place of leadership in the affairs of our State and Nation. Sincerely, GOVERNOR EARL WARREN The past year found national attention focused on California ' s popular governor. This true Cal rooter and alum found time in his busy schedule to occasionally attend games with his equally famous family. Governor. REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY LEFT TO RIGHT: James H.
