     "When I joined the RAND Corporation, in the summer of 1957, Herman Kahn* was a commanding presence there. I recall him on the RAND patio playing-appropriately, perhaps-a game of kriegspiel, a German variant of chess, with the great mathematican Johnny von Neumann* . . . ."

     The Santa Monica Bay area is one of Southern California's most popular playgrounds, and is comprised of the beach communities of Santa Monica, Ocean Park, Venice and Playa del Rey.

     Santa Monica, known the world over, is one of California's most beautiful and alluring cities. It is located at the western terminus of U.S. Highway 66. Los Angeles, 25 miles away, may be reached over several scenic highways, including the famous Wilshire Boulevard.

     Santa Monica is nestled at the base of rugged mountains, rolling foothills, and level mesas, with the inviting Pacific spread before it. Its Palisades Park, one of America's most attractive, stretches along the ocean front on top of the Palisades, with magnificient and commanding views of the mighty Pacific with its golden sunsets.

     A 2,200 foot breakwater which parallels the beach, gives Santa Monica one of the most modern and convenient harbors for pleasure craft to be found on the Pacific Coast.

     Ocean Park is the center of Santa Monica's amusement area, and with its countless attractions, Pleasure Pier, daily band concerts and wide expanse of sandy beach, makes it truly one of the most popular of the west coast's beach resorts, and the mecca for thousands of pleasure seekers.

     Venice which adjoins Occean Park, has many attractions.

     The City of Los Angeles maintains an up-to-date beach playground at this seaside resort, with modern conveniences, and affords opportunities for almost every variety of recreation obtainable at the seaside.

     A wide strand connects all the beach towns in the Sant Monica Bay region, where one may stroll or ride in comfortable little trams, that make frequent trips along the ocean front and view the great Pacific and its surf attractions.
