FOREWORD A Q HIS book, the nineteenth volume of The Stanford AQ, , A Quad, is offered to the students, alumni and friends w S75 of the University in the hope that it may prove to be a complete, interesting' and a1'tistic account of :J f the colleg'e year. No attempt has been made to '91 depa1't from the style and organization of the ' Quads of the past few years, but we realize that if the Quad is to perpetuate the idea of its founders. that of being a University chronicle, it must necessarily follow along' the same g'eneral lines. The inclusion of the sorority pictures is the only innovation that this hook has to offer and now that the opposition of the women to having' their pictures published has been overcome it seems certain that this feature will continue throughout future Quads. In follow- ing out this idea of making the Quad a reference book we have en- deavored to compile a complete and authentic list of all the Stanford athletic records as well as a table of some of the more important Student llody offices. In athletics this year has witnessed the passing of all Freshmen Intercollegiate contests save crew. .At the time the Academic Council issued its ultimatum to this effect it was met with a storm of protest by the student body. It was feared that without the incentive of a big g'ame freshmen would not turn out for athletics there would not be a general participation in sports and the standard of our Varsity teams would be lowered. llut during the past year a larger number have eng'aged in some b1'anch of athletics than ever did before. NVhile we have not had the g'ood fortune to record as long' a list of victories as many of our predecessors. it cannot be attributed to the abolishment of the freshmen contests. Our Varsity teams have been good teams. In every contest they have entered into. whether winning or losing, they have earned for us an enviable reputation for clean sportsmanship. Among other chang'es in the athletics during the past year has been the offlcial recognition of soccer as a minor intercollegiate sport. XN'ithin the University conditions were never better than they are at present. Students and faculty have come to a mutual under- standing for the first time and all seem to be working together for the bette1'ment of the University. lilut recently complete student control.-a thing which the student body has sought for many years.-has been granted. The details of government are now being worked out and bc fore the end of the semester student con- trol will be in full swing. The Golden Age of Stanford is the way Ur. Jordan describes the present day situation in the University, and this coming from one who has been most closely in touch with the University since its establislunent is, we think, the highest tribute that could be paid the student body.
