PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE evada ' s heavy drought and depression cloud, breaking, reveals a silver ' lining. The New Deal Federal agencies, abetted by the Governor and the Legislature, steadily achieve betterment throughout the State. The basic industries, mining and agriculture, are being awakened to new life. Battalions of prospectors, trained in special courses, hunt gold and silver; old mining camps revive because of rising silver and gold prices; a two mil- lion dollar Federal loan insures new life in the Ely copper fields; Federal and State cooperation promise Boulder power to Pioche and to Ely with resulting new mining operations on a scale great even in world terms. And who knows — a greater than Comstock camp may emerge ! New hope has come to argiculture. Federal funds have purchased sur- plus crops and live stock, have prevented foreclosures, have improved farm homes, have drilled hundreds of wells in desert places, have promised great impounding reservoirs, and have raised prices for farm and ranch products. And now Nature, heaping Winter ' s white gold in the Sierras, seems about to complete Nevada ' s new deal for agriculture by reversing the downward precipitation curve of the last forty years! Altogether it seems Nevada is just emerging from a chrysalis into a new and rarer beauty and bounty of living. In all this the University rejoices. The people of the State, so generous to the University in these difficult years, will surely in the new day of their greater abundance take pride in helping the University to complete its plant, perfect its equipment and advance its standards for staff and student life. The year just closing on the campus has kept step with the state ' s ad- vance. It has been a year of vigorous progress despite the limitations, institu- tional and individual, of lingering depression. Higher standards of scholar- ship for the whole student body and for special groups, new records of wisdom in the publications, an outstanding Alumni Bulletin edited by a Staff Alum- nus, deliberate discard of outworn traditions, wholly new plans for handling- Varsity Athletics, five score students aided Federally and in turn serving a score of University departments, betterment of buildings and equipment by means of both Federal and State special aid, widened and heightened activity by special student cultural groups in dramatics, debate, music, art and special science lines, founding of a Cercle-Francais, new University radio lecture contacts with the whole state, new plans to extend adult education offerings, com pletely revised cirriculum in Agriculture with new offerings in Forestry and Agricultural Economics, advanced quality standards for entrance, re- funding of the University ' s Bureau of Mines — our Campus this year has been alive with factual gains in high and worthy lines through student and staff endeavor towards a new deal. How fitting then it is that the Artemisia should crown the year with an edition developing a silver and new deal theme. Congratulations to the Artemisia staff, successful in recording the advance of this fruitful campus year so beautifully as to make the volume itself another evidence of the University ' s brave and constructive living.
