El Rodeo of 1940 HONORS: Miss Margaret H. Chase, instructor of English, whose length of service and whose perspective on the history of California Poly- technic exceed those of any other person on the campus. When Miss Chase started teach- ing at Polytechnic in 1908, the school was five years old. The enrollment consisted of fewer than 100 students housed in three buildings that soon are to be torn down to make way for the new administration and classroom building. Miss Chase has passed through periods when the school literally waited for the edu- cational philosophy of California to catch up with the advanced ideas that led to estab- lishment of California Polytechnic by the state legislature. She has noted ups and downs in progress of the school, but through- out her long years of service, she has re- mained faithful to her work of instructing youth in the use of ideas expressed through written and spoken language. El Rodeo of 1940 is proud to dedicate this volume to Miss Margaret H. Chase. Her charm and graciousness have brightened the days for many hundreds of California Poly- technic students during the past 32 years. No person on the campus better typifies the theme of the 1940 El Rodeo— 30 Years of Progress Paye 9
