(JuVEKN 44)K. To the Students of the University of California: The period of your university education comes at a time of great change in the life of our State and Nation, and at a time when there are increasingly grave world problems to be solved. There are many persons who will tell you that this situation can mean only discouragement for you as you face the future. I feel, on the contrary, that American youth has thrived upon ob- stacles and that the challenge presented to you will serve to strengthen you and bring out the best that is in you. Each succeeding generation of Americans has been told that it faces a world of diminishing opportunity . Each generation has then gone on to reach greater heights of accomplishment. With this background of history, with the many unfulfilled needs of our people, and with the tremendous store of material and human resources of our Nation, there is good reason for confidence to dominate the thinking of students today. I know your generation can be counted upon to furnish its quota of men of scholarship and vision who will push forward the boun- daries of knowledge and apply their findings for the betterment of mankind. Sincerely, 7Kryztreo Governor. THE BOARD OF REGENTS President Sproul addresses the Board of Regents ' meeting.

THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE THIS YEARBOOK, in accordance with the tion for class annuals, concerns itself primarily with the extracurricular life of the Class of I 952. It is a record of what members of the campus commu- nity did, of the friends they made, and of the group activities they undertook, in the intervals between class sessions, study hours, and mid-term and final examinations. It does not attempt to re- view the education that each member of the class received, presumably because that has been per- manently graven on their minds and molded into their characters. One might say, therefore, that the pages of this publication are dedicated to the frosting on the cake, or to the sentimental aspects of the journey through college on the way to enlightened citizen- ship, more useful careers, and a more abundant life. But if I were thus to describe the contents of this book, I would do so with full realization of the importance of such frosting and sentiment in all of our relations with our fellow men. Going to college is not simply a process of acquiring knowledge and facility in its use. It is also a process of joining a company of men and women who share certain ideals of loyalty, of duty, and of responsibility, toward the institution which has educated them, toward the community which has made that tion possible, toward the nation which has vided an environment in which free education can prosper, and toward the concept of freedom and human dignity without which civilization is meaningless. This yearbook is a record of membership in such a company, one of the finest companies I know. It is a proof that people working together can find enjoyment in the most difficult and painstaking tasks. It will be a reminder to all who possess it that in spite of the great diversity of studies which the University and its many colleges offer, there is a heritage of tradition, of experience, and of aspira- tion which may be shared by all its students, and on which may be built confidence both for the future of the individual, and for the progress of mankind. Our gracious president, Robert Gordon Sproul, and Mrs. Sproul extend a cordial welcome to the University family.
