VETERANS ' REGISTRATION Spring enrollment at Santa Barbara College showed a gain of 60 percent over the Fall term, increasing from 871 to 1387. The return of veterans from World War II was largely re- sponsible for the gain, and for the first time in history men outnumbered women 698 to 689. This photo was taken on the special registration day for veterans, during which near- ly 600 ex-servicemen enrolled. For the first time in the history of Santa Barbara College men outnum- ber women students on campus. With the return of the veteran there was an enrollment gain of sixty percent over the preceding semester. February registration saw the return of many former students who are resuming their college careers after an absence of several years. Forty veterans are attend- ing college under Public Law 16, while the remainder are under Public Law 346, the G. I. Bill of Rights. Santa Barbara College will be looking for- ward to accelerated social activities, an outstanding athletic program, and academic superiority with the return of the veteran to the classroom.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE This air view of the Mesa campus shows (i) the Industrial Education Building, (2) La Playa Stadium, (3) breakwater and (4) recently purchased land, the proposed site for new buildings and dormitories. The view of expansion for Santa Barbara College is yet a part of the immediate future. During the year meetings have been held with rep- resentatives of the University for the purpose of suggesting and developing future plans. Construction of buildings on the Mesa Campus will be started as soon as possible, but the shortage of materials and labor will probably de- lay the building program for several months. Dormitories will be the first buildings under construction.

EL DIA DEL GAUCHO Two of the outstanding entries in the El Dia Del Gaucho parade were the Delta S:gma Epsilon float (left), which won first prize in the organizations divisions, and the Phi Kap- pa Gamma car. Following the judging of the entries, a parade to LaPlaya Stadium was held, and the University of California Charter Day was observed on the Mesa campus. The second annual Charter Day celebration was held on the Santa Barbara College campus March 22, 23. El Dia Del Gaucho began with the car caravan from the Riviera to the Mesa campus, followed by a picnic dinner on La Playa field. The torchlight parade saw many Gauchos hiking up the Mesa to light the traditional bonfire. The first post-war Homecom- ing was another great day for the Gauchos. Hundreds of alumni returned to the scenes of their college days. Well deserved credit is given to the California Club for their work in organization of the affair.
