Theme The Jesuit priestt Fra Junipero Serra. was the inspiration tor the jolly song by Professor Irving Outcalt which we have used as our theme. In it he has combined reality and imaginatione qualities which the artist has striven to inject into his illustrations. One golden day in summer came Junipero Serra With all his pious brothers lean and fat: There wasn't any school at all in California Now what do you think of that? Now what do you think of that? He started up the singing just to keep away the tog. And the naked heathens flocked about his knees. And he sat there and he taught themt did that good old pedagogue. Yes. he charmed them with the latest pedagese. Chorus: San Diego State College. We will point with pride to Fra Junipero And we'll ever be thankful For the day he came from Mexico. When Father Serra comes again. heill motor up the hill. And the president will meet him at the door. And nothing but the meadowwlarks and sunshine will be still. The same as it was before. The same as it was before. For the teachers will be teaching other teachers how to teach And the leamers will be learning at their ease: And in the auditorium he'll hear a brilliant speech Of the wonders of his latest pedagese.
