VIEW Time-honored Memories ...in ten years...we shall look with amazement upon the development of this University, for it is certain to be greater, far greater, than the imagination of any of us can foresee. Southern Campus, 1920 These were optimistic words from Dr. Ernest Carroll Moore, first UCLA Provost, voiced only a year after the University of California, Southern Branch was established, and nine years before UCLA ' s landmark, Royce Hall, opened for classes. Dr. Moore ' s prediction for the University has indeed been fulfilled, far beyond the original vision of the Royce Quad, which included Haines, Kinsey, and Powell Library. The physical face of the campus is still changing, yet UCLA ' s development also extends offcampus through its worldwide academic reputation. Long before ook-la or ukla Bearwear became the latest fad in Europe and Japan, UCLA was exporting its ideas. Major contributors to this endeavor include some familiar names: Ralph BUNCHE, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize and Under-secretary General of the United Nations; Frank Prescott ROLFE, former Dean of Letters and Science and authority on 17th century prose and Victorian literature; Llewelyn M.K. BOELTER, founding dean of the School of Engineering; Edward A. DICK SON, former Regent, reporter, publisher, and known as the Godfather of UCLA ; and, of course, Dr. Ernest Carroll MOORE, educator and philosopher. Though surrounded by all this history, students have left their own mark on UCLA traditions. For example, Mardi Gras was begun in 1941 to benefit UNICAMP, the University ' s summer camp for underprivileged children. There were ten booths that year. Today ' s Mardi Gras spans the intramural field and is a fully-equipped carnival. Another tradition preserved is the rallies at the foot of Janss Steps. Constructed in the early 1930 ' s, it has been the scene of both political and sport rallies—from John F. Kennedy to Larry Brown. Perhaps the most enduring UCLA tradition is the football rivalry with USC. This manifests itself in many ways including bogus Daily Trojan papers, massive priority ticket lines, and special t-shirts. Here again, students draw on tradition, through the fight songs, including George Gershwin ' s hit Strike Up the Band. The Gershwins presented this song to UCLA in 1937, appending a for UCLA to the title. The lyrics to this song as well as those to the Fight Song are usually forgotten, except for the famous 8-clap end ings added by the students. In recent years, students have moved a form of the 8-clap into the classroom. Written evaluations of the instructors pale in comparison; the real estimate of success in a lecture hall being, as in life, the loudness of the applause. —SJG STUDENT LIFE 25
