Earth­ quakes, jack hammers and air com­ pressors are now just memories. Our present campus has taken on a new look and a spirit of unfounded opti­ mism prevails as we look forward to a new and separate campus for Bak­ ersfield College. Bakersfield and Bakersfield College have been re­ building! This past year has seen us with un­ paralleled heights in athletics. Our music program has taken on added luster. Our curricular offerings have been extended but, as always, we look forward with faith and confi­ dence to an even brighter future. I am sure I express the wishes of our faculty when I say to our students, " Well done and pleasant memo­ ries." Dr. Ralph Prator President, Bakersfield College 5 ltt'iiiiS Or.

EDITOR'S NOTE: Two years ago John Pruett, Sports Editor of the Huntsville TIMES, wrote what I believe is the only comprehensive survey of the history of sporting activity in the Huntsville area. This survey appeared in twelve segments in the TIMES during May, 1977. It, in Mr. Pruett's words, "was designed to focus on the highlights of the athletic heritage of Huntsville, which has always been one of Alabama's most sports-minded cities." Sports are a part of our lives, a most important segment of popular history, and is certainly a proper subject for study by the historian.
