10 BLUE AND GOLD. which we at present possess, and with a majority of students who spend in travelling to and from their homes the time that should be devoted to Gymnasium practice and field sports, we can hardly ex- pect better results than have been obtained during the past year. The Gymnasium has been the scene of systematic exercise on the part of many students. The series of base and foot-ball games were played with interest and energy, and the well-played games were not extremely few as compared with those poorly played. The Cinder Track was twice put in shape, and two successful Field Days were held. Several University records were broken, and on each occasion there was present a large crowd of interested visitors. The Foot- Ball Team has sustained against all comers our reputation as cham- pions in that sport. But of base-ball, inter-class games only have been played. The above sketch of a year of the University ' s history makes a very creditable showing. May the coming year be remarkable for still greater improvement! The editors are fully cognisant of the many shortcomings of this volume of the BLUE AND GOLD. If several things had been different and several other things had not been as they were, we should have been able to present a better book. But we have endeavored to profit ' by the successes and failures of our predecessors, and have striven to make our book pleasing to as many as possible and dis- pleasing to as few as might be. The Miscellany, we wish it under- stood, does not aim any higher than that which has appeared in previous volumes. One new feature needs, perhaps, to be noticed. We refer to our Alumni Department. Great pains have been taken to make the Directory of Alumni as accurate as possible. We trust that it will be of interest and value, not only to Alumni, but to all our readers. Having done our best to discharge the duties devolving upon us as editors of the BLUE AND GOLD, we now consign our book to the hands of the students, and of all those interested in them and th e University of California. Our aim has been to issue a publication creditable to our class and to the student-body as a whole. Our readers must decide whether or not we have been successful.
