THE CHfTlPUS was almost my first introduction to Fresno State College,as a copy was presented to me with the remarlrz that from it I might glean an idea of those things which are of greatest interest in student life to the students themselves, for the Campuses present a continuous record of that cooperative student effort outside the class room without which it is conceded that college life would be very one-sided indeed. Alhis publication represents more than a record of who was president of this or who was elected to that organization. It becomes a valuable addition to the archives of the college as it reflects from year to year changes and advances. Here we find hints of new artistic emphasis of development in dramatic offerings, greater musical oppor- tunities, triumphs, literary and athletic. no student of trends in education can afford to ignore the college annual. To all who are interpreting college life through this volume we extend our best wishes. A A A A fTiFiRY C. BFIHER Mary C. Baker H . THE year 1933-1934 is one that none l of us will forget very soon. It has had more than its quota of purely collegiate thrills,-football, social affairs, forensic trips, the new library, music tours, high-jump records, brawls, conventions, traclz-meets, picnics,-and the annual is the chronicle of theme'-1ll.AAAAAAAAAA ABut the 1934 Campus will be a historic volume because it records the relationships between Town and Gown in these stirring times. what was the place of the college in the new Deal? President Said's trip to washington as the representative of the Junior l'lRFl, the enrollment of a hundred and fifty new and old students under the FERH, the repair of the buildings and grounds under the CUJH, the questions for inter-collegiate debates,-all these and more have tied the college year closely to President Roosevelt's first year in office, l congratu- late Editor Ed and his staff on the fine piece of worh they have done.

LUHEH the great Cardinal Llloolsey was founding a college at Oxford, he declared that he cared more about how English students were to live than what they were to study. From his arrangements for the social life of the students we lanow that the tradition as to the importance of college life outside the classroom is at least several centuries old. A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A Afhe careful and elaborate plans for mafzing the college annual a worthy record of college life shows that the tradition has grown in strength. This bool: carries in its beauty of design and illustration, in its story of triumphs and aspirations, in its range of earnest thought and merry humor, a faithful glimpse of varied college life, revealing the events, places, and activities at Fresno State which our students regard as memories to be cherished or as achievements to be acclaimed. nothing else prepared at the college approaches it in interest, in completeness, or in charm. Perhaps its excellence comes from the aim of the staff to satisfy the expectations, not merely of the faculty, but rather of every one on the campus. A A A A A A A Allie all feel pride in this volume and its pictured record of life at our college. But the passing years will add increasing value to its reminders, and mellowness to its memories. You are lilzely to have a growing respect for the wisdom of Cardinal llloolsey and his opinion of college life. Facts may fade but experiences gained in the richest and most vital years of one's life are interwoven indelibly with the inmost fibers of 0ne'sbeing.AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Afhis year has been unique at Fresno State. Perhaps our proudest moments of triumph, a truly dynamic spirit of unity and democracy, the pulsing current of a great social transformation about us,-all these have been felt as never before. Our responses to all these and lzindred adventures are reflected in this volume of the Campus. It is worthy of the events which it preserves. A A A A A A A A A A A A FRFIDH lil. THOYTTHS
