During the war American colleges, particularly smaller ones, suffered acutely, as they were drained of students and faculty by the armed forces. College campuses, reputed for verve and color, drifted into a dull slumber. Lectures were attended predominantly by women more often concerned with the welfare of a far-away GI than with the subiect at hand. lnertia reigned for four years. Then with war's end and the return of veterans, American colleges stirred to life again. Ex-servicemen hastened back to their schools to continue the education they had forfeited to combat a world crisis. And as they were welcomed back it became clear that the glorified pre-war college would live again. l fgljgr. A Herein, we have tried to portray this reiuvenation at one American college - San - .A . isco State. I .1655 Q -Ev-E gjlk., 'bu i naqfil i1' f i'I5'3'Ei.Fii:i :,:2'.!f ik..

Page 5 HEHIEATIU ast fall Dr. J. Paul Leonard left his professorship at Stanford University to assume the presidency of San Francisco State College, a position left vacant by the retirement of Dr. Alexander C. Roberts. We students wondered what kind of a man our new president was. At the Freshman Assembly in September our questions were answered. Q Dr. Roberts greets Dr. Leonard. Page 6 As he stepped up to the rostrum, a hush fell over the assembly. Then a pleasant Voice broke the stillness: Fellow freshmen-I am a fresh- man here, too .... With these words the new president captured the hearts of the students. A scholar of reputation, an administrator of undoubted abilities-these things we already knew. But as we listened to his talk we were cheered to know that he was a man who could see things as we saw them. His actions have given support to our estimation of him. For his achievements since as- cending the presidential chair, and for his human understand- ing, we respectfully dedicate this book to President Leonard. g Dr. Leonard before student assembly.

We are afraid because we have discovered weapons which will de- stroy us if we cannot find permanent peace. Unless we find answers to our problems of living together we will return to a primitive state. The sources for our answers are knowledge, experimentation, and faith. These our college must supply. T oday our college is rapidly filling with iubilant youth, many of whom have returned from armed ser- vice. Our faculty is increasing and the legislature has assured us of new college buildings. With the power of our faculty, the enthusiasm of our dynamic student body, the new buildings and equip- ment, and the need for world understanding and in- telligent action. we look forward anxiously to lilling our place in the cultural life of the world. The years ahead will take courage, and to be successful we must let our minds be bold. As your president I am greatly impressed by our opportunities, and I am confident that all of us- faculty and students alike-will go forward together. 9011, 0 IMAWLQH DEAN WARD Among the many duties handled by Dean of Women Mary A. Ward is the responsibility for the social and scholas- tic welfare of State Women. Assisting student body vice-president Bernice Bedwell schedule campus social activi- ties, Dean Ward helped to achieve the coordination necessitated by the pro- tracted college social calendar. eom ofmen DEAN COX Heading the Men's Physical Education Department and acting as Dean of Men, David J. Cox found his responsibilities increased many fold. Relieved partially by the return of the bulk of his P. E. staff, the dean nevertheless was swamp- ed as he concerned himself with num- erous diiiiculties confronting GI's, such as housing and unpaid allotments. Paell 1 Page I2 .i-WW ,mv N ECMA? The conclusion of the war marked the beginning of a gradual increase in the faculty. The Men's P. E. Department, whose war-time staff found their duties doubled, welcomed the re- turn of Lt. Comanders R i c h a r d Boyle and Harold Harden, coaches of football and baseball respective- ly, and track coach Naval Lt. Ray Kaufman. Naval Lt. Commander George Gibson, Army Medical Corps Cap- tain Jesse Iverson, Army Sergeant John Gutman, Naval Lt. Maurice Amsden, N a v a l Lt. Commander Stanley Morse, and Army Captain DeCalvus Simonson also shed their military garbs to teach again. New additions to the faculty in- cluded Esther Cahill, who became Supervisor of the Training School, Dr. Paul Harvey, who joined the Science Department, Jean Stan- bridge and Cyrus Trobbe, who be- came Music Department members, and Mrs. Eleanor Wakefield, who joined the Women's P. E. staff, A larger faculty is predicted as former members still in the service return and new instructors are added to handle the increased enrollment.

MUS The variety of rhythmic sounds and mel- odious tones which greet the visitor to the Music Alley are part of the daily routine of music majors and minors. Most of the stu- dents taking courses belong to Music Fed which sponsors all activities of the music de- partment. The primary function of the activities is to give valuable experience to the performers as well as to provide entertainment and recrea- tion for the rest of the students interested in music. Approximately 350 students are receiving musical training in voice, in- strument or theory at State. A committee of students who be- Page I8 long to the Music Fed repre- sent student views on musical activities which will be offered. At the beginning of each semester the student board and faculty meet togeth- er and organize the deputation trips, recitals, concerts and other activities in which the music students will partici- pate. Many high school students attended the eighth annual music Workshop which was held by the music department during the summer session, 1945. Under the leadership of Dr. William E. Knuth, mem- bers of the faculty and music students directed the d a i 1 y three hour sessions. The work- shop classes are conducted by student teachers, and the in- strumental ensembles, consist- ing of an advanced and begin- ners band, and an orchestra, are under the supervision of 0 The Alley-Musician's Mecca I C ALLEY faculty supervisors with student teachers as- sisting. On the last three nights of the Work- shop the advanced band, orchestra and chorus held concerts. During the summer the stu- dents published the Alley Gator for those attending. On April 23 the first major concert State has given for several years was present- ed by members of the a cappella and band, un- der the direction of Roy E. Freeburg and Dr. Wendell Otey. State was host to the Northern California Junior College choral festival on May 7. Stu- dents from the visiting colleges were honored at a reception and entertained by the music department. This was the first time that State was host to the choral festival which was held annually pre- vious to the war. Although many of the pro- grams presented by the music department were discontinued during the War, with the re- turn of many State students and the influx of veterans, the faculty and the Music Fed an- ticipates an active schedule in the future. 0Pictured ut the right are candid scenes of Stc:te's Music Alley.

On the service side Phi Eta Chi members washed dishes in the Co-op, attended to the details of the Freshman Reception, pro- moted the Hubba Hubba Hop and presented a rally in the Women's Gym. The group meets regularly for off-campus socials, the most successful of which were the pledge smoker and the semesterly formal dinner at which pledges became offi- cial members and a new president was inaugurated. An active fraternity for more than a year, Phi Eta Chi has served its proba- tionary period and is now legally recognized on the campus.

BoY1e Athletics at San Francisco State during 1945-1946 saw the transition of a college depleted by War to the embryo stages of a college on the brink of big time athletics. With the coming of the War in 1941, the armed services took State's pride athletes, and not until 1945, after they had fought for their country on the battletfields, did they return to State to fight on the fields of sport. Now they are back, and with their abilities are ready to propel State into the heights of inter-collegiate competition. In comparison with companion schools in the area, State presented a robust program of athletics during the War. Whereas the majority of schools in California not blessed with service personnel abolished all glimmer of War athletics, State offered as complete and as full a program as human endeavor permits. The only major sports that returned this season were football and track. These two were held at State for the first time in three long years. The basketball and baseball varsities were continued with freshmen and 4F's throughout the War. With the next chapter of State Athletics, a chapter to be engraved on a new campus, the full score of sports Will be regained, and forged to the top. ,,..,, ' -A 1 P ' Page 73 -nw. -.1-...

After three long years State Golden Gators returned to grid wars. Twenty early wearers of the ruptured duck along with several Freshmen answered the call of Coach Dan Farmer who was substituting for Dick Boyle, still in the service at the time. The team valiantly battled their way through two defeats and a tie. Although State returned to the sport somewhat prematurely in com- parison with other schools, the season was a total success from the stand- point of interest and enjoyment on the parts of players and spectators. The bright lights in State's first post-war grid effort were baclziield men Elm Roelling, Bob Seiler, Paul Strickland and Woody Meyers.

The Women's Athletic Association in the past year continued its pro- gram of recreation activities in physical education featuring a varied pro- gram which included baseball, badminton, hockey, basketball, and bowling. Under the leadership of President Carmel Mullin the W. A. A. termin- ated a most successful and active year. Other officers were Doris Hicken- bottom, vice-president, Carolyn Roswall, secretary, Frances Galloway, treasurer, and Evelyn Lonich, recording secretary. The outstanding event of the Fall Semester was the sports rally in which the Women's P. E. department offered exhibitions of modern danc- ing, fencing, and jitterbugging. During the early part of the Spring Term W.A.A. sports were high- lighted by basketball and badminton tournaments. Noontime softball games held the center of the sports stage in the latter part of the semester. Credit is due to the Women's P. E. Department for their success in bringing to the college nationally known tennis stars Barbara Krase, Pauline Betz and Margaret Osborne for an exhibition match. W.A.A. members participated in the first intercollegiate sports day to be held since 1942. The gathering was sponsored by the Alta California Fed- eration of Women's Athletic Associations and was held in San Jose on May 4 in conjunction with the junior colleges of Marin County, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Rosa and San Jose State. These colleges competed in archery, softball, volleyball and swimming. At the close of the Spring Term the year's program was terminated with the Installation Dinner in which all student groups affiliated with the P. E. Department participated. if wif?

Shirley Perry, leader in volley- ball activities, organized tourn- aments which met with popular response. ennh As in past semesters, tennis was one of the most popular sports on the women's program. In addition to exhibitions by outstanding state and national stars, the courts were usually loaded with women playing practice or tournament matches. Clara Caburi, one of the stellar court performers, acted as manager. ,muff Softball was one of the fea- tured activities during the last portion of the Spring semester. Gloria Gamba, a most avid soft- ball fan, acted as manager for the various games which took place during the noon hour.

IN concluding this 1946 Franciscan, we face the difficult task of expressing our remorse over the loss of Frank Ray, who died suddenly November 30, 1945. We are often happily reminded of him by the many things he made for the college . . .the signs, the stage sets, and the service flag, whose gold stars commemorated many of his friends. He exemplified well that spirit of amity characteristic of State. We especially regret that he died, with the college on the threshold of a new and bright era, an era he wanted very much to see. State students have lost a friend who always had time to listen to their talk of achievements, hopes, and troubles. They miss his help and encourage- ment. The faculty has lost in him a talented and affable colleague. Both students and faculty will long remember his friendliness. gfx 1 Q me sa, Page 90 METZ SUPERIOR New Construction and Complete Donuts Modernization of Stores - Offices - Homes PAUL P.

I shall not concern myself with the former purposes, they are of little consequence: but th'e lat ter is deserving of more than this effort. A Were it not for the technical advice of Paul O'Rourke of our print shop, this Franciscan would not be presented in such attractive form. His aid and the efforts of linotypist Earle Moore were invaluable. Every yearbook staff must have one person who is on the receiving end of all buck-passing. Assistant Editor Etta Bucholtz personified that individ- ual for us. She carried her burdens without a whimper and we are indebted to her. Another without whom the book would not have achieved some of its better qualities is photographer Bill Rapp who devoted many hours to the Franciscan's pictorial displays. A word of thanks is also due Mr. Harold Hollingsworth for providing us with summer session pictures. Staff members Doris Thulin, Vivian Allen, Lou Rubin and Caroline Nahman as well as our faculty sponsor Dr. Edward E. Cassady, were always nearby in a crisis and we extend our gratitude to them also. Lastly, the Bauer Engraving Co. and the T. I. Cardoza bookbinding firm deserve mention for their cooperativeness in supplying the scarce ma- terials necessary for this production.
