TIES OF STEEL There was one of the courageous little band of men which first came to San Francisco Bay exploring for a place to build a town who said to himself, as his diary proves to us: Some day one of the World ' s greatest cities shall rise round this bay. He stood near the Golden Gate as he said this. Next day the party set out to explore the land across the bay — the Contra Costa they called it. After three and a half days of steady travel, they encamped near the Berkeley hills. Today one can come from where these words were spoken over to the Berkeley hills in half an hour — so terrific is the economy of modern times. Then, a good day ' s travel was fifty miles or less — today, five hundred, a thousand, two thousand. The Contra Costa and the cliff where Anza stood are one today; made so by a giant ' s steel string which holds a roadway up, and in between the two glitters an island fairyland. What would they say could they but see the town they dreamed — arisen there before their eyes and glistening about the bay! And arching there above the blue water, a league-long road of steel.

A man-made structure So stately and tall, Gigantic in splendor Never to fall. With cables of steel It spans the Bay; Roads of concrete, A broad highway. The sun in the East Casts its rays on the steel Cold and dauntless A masterpiece of zeal. BOB LLOYD, H-9.
