            San Francisco is one of the world's most  beautiful 
            and  unusual  cities.   Its  mild climate, exciting 
            scenery, fine restaurants, and  unusual  places  to 
            visit give the city a special charm.  Its many fine 
            universities, libraries, and museaums  all  combine 
            to  make it the jewel of the West Coast.  A leading 
            financial center of the west, it also  is  home  to 
            the  theater  and  the arts.  Among San Francisco's 
            many world famous sites are the Presidio, long home 
            to the U. S.  Sixth Army,  Chinatown,  one  of  the 
            largest  Chinese  settlements  outside Asia, Golden 
            Gate Park, where more than 1000 acres of woods  and 
            lakes extends from the Pacific to the center of the 
            city, and Telegraph Hill, filled with  restaurants.
