Although some changes have been made in the makeup of this year's volume, it has been the purpose of the edi- tors not to depart from the general plan of past editions, or to break precedents set by former editors. It has been their aim' to depict Stanford life in its fullness, and in a way that it is hoped will appeal to the reader. A new grade of paper and better ink have been used, and the results obtained need no comment. The past year has been one of change, accomplishment and prog- ress. Stanford University has installed its second President, Dr. John Casper Branner. President David Starr Jordan has been .pro- moted by the Board of Trustees to the newly created office of Chan- cellor, thus giving him more opportunity to perform the service that the world demands of him. The policy of the Board of Trustees has changed for more co-operation with the students, Alumni and Faculty, for the advancement of the University. The Stanford Union has become a reality. The building is rapidly nearing completion and the beginning of the fall semester will see its occupancy. This comes as a result of certain faithful and hard-work- ing alumni, with the aid and co-operation of the present generation of students. The benefits to be derived from the efforts of these loyal Stanford men will be shared by present and future generations alike. The VVomen's Club House is in the process of construction and will also be completed by the fall semester. Stanford women and alumnae who have struggled and have been the means of obtaining such a reality cannot be given too much credit. Their accomplishment will be lasting, and future generations will sing their praises. Never before in her history has Stanford sent so many teams and clubs into foreign fields. The baseball team during the summer of 1913 toured Japan and the Hawaiian Islands, the longest trip ever taken by a Stanford team. During the Christmas holidays of 1913 the Glee Club journeyed as far north as Vancouver. At the same time eight delegates of men and women represented Stanford at the Student Volunteer Convention held at Kansas City. Spring vacation gave the Stanford Band an opportunity to make their second tour of the South- land. Basketball, for the first time recognized by the Associated Stu- dents, was represented by the Varsity team in the southern part of the State for a series of five games. The present generation of college students celebrated for the first time in the serpentine on the home Field a football victory against California. The soccer and debating teams again triumphed over their Blue and Gold opponents. With a veteran crew, pronounced the best yet to uphold the Cardinalg with a successful baseball season, and the greatest track team that has ever represented Stanford, the most re- markable year in Stanford athletics is brought to a close.
