 1 IK romance and history of Early Cali- C fornia, which brings to us colorful stories of the Spanish Padres, fascinat- ing tales of the Gold Rush, exciting exploits of the Pony Express, and the final settlement and development of the state by the Americans, has been selected as the theme of the Colonial of 1932. . California will always attract attention be- cause of its romantic past. This was clearly demonstrated last year when great interest was aroused in the past history of the state during the celebration of Los Angeles one hundred fiftieth anniversary. The color and pageantry of early days was gaily re-enacted in the Fiesta celebration of the city. With the coming of the Olympic Games the world has again focused its attention upon Cali- fornia. The growth of the state and its rise to prominence will Ik of even greater interest to the individual now that California has been selected as the scene of the Tenth Olympiad. The theme of the 1932 Colonial is, therefore, illustrative of California's progress from the time of Spanish discovery on through the days of American occupation, lo make the theme of the book most effective, the art staff has endeavored to produce a quality of art work unsurpassed in former publications, and has aimed to present a vivid pictorial account of the color and romance that characterized early Caliiornia.
